"I can understand that." Velocity replied to Raven's mentioning not wanting to talk to the reporters. She gave a little wave as the other heroine departed. The speedster then looked over to Archangel and gave her a smile. "Supercrime isn't the only thing that brings a lot of us together. Me and some others helped do some fundraising for a charity back before the Summer. Things like that come around from time to time." "But anyway, give a call to Freedom Hall if you ever need some help, if none of the other Freedom Leaguers are there, they can get ahold of me."

Thanks Now I just need to figure out what I want to do with my other character slot that is now for a PL 10 character :)

When Archangel arrived, Velocity had given her a friendly greeting and a broad smile, then she had been quite as Emissary began to ask each of those there about themselves. Once that was done, she zipped over to the doors to the Wreck Room's control room ahead of Emissary, and waited for him to catch up. When he asked what challenges she might like for the group to face, she was quite for only a few moments before she replied, "how about a trio from the Power Corps?"

Sounds good to me :)

"Oh, we are up to taking you down!" Velocity called out to the genius criminal. As she spoke she picked up the movement of Doc's androids, moving up behind her and Emissary. She was not too surprised by the tactic, but it was not going to work. "We have incoming behind us." She said to Emissary as she became a blur of motion, running back to intercept the approaching androids. As she came below the nearest of the three, she released a hail of high-velocity marbles at the android. As soon as she had made the opening attack, she sped off to one side, putting some distance between her and the androids, hoping to draw one or two away.

sorry for my delay in posting anything, but I have been busy with a deadline at work. How do we wish to proceed? Just call the meeting to an end now? Or continue things some?

(ooc I don't think you will need extra effort with a Str of 16) As the other two began to fly down towards the street level, Velocity ran back down the sides of the building, covering the distance in seconds. She was waiting down at the street as the others joined her. They did not have too long to wait before police vehicles began to arrive and the criminal was soon in their custody. A short while later the police had taken statements and departed, leaving the three heroines standing on the sidewalk where a small crowd had started to form. "We should move on unless we want everything we say to appear the paper tomorrow." Velocity said to the other two as reporters could be seen among the crowd, as well as a few photographers.
-
As Raven came into view and greeted Velocity and the others, the speedster turned slightly towards her and gave a wave, her smile still present. "Good to see you as well Raven. Glad you could make it." "This is another guest today, Arrowhawk." She continued, indicating the archer next to her. "And the sliver guy over there is my teammate Emissary." She added, gesturing towards the other hero.
-
"Yeah, that's me." The attractive speedster replied as she shook Arrowhawk's extended hand. "Very nice to meet you Arrowhawk."
-
Meant to put this up earlier but forgot. When Archangel and Raven arrive Velocity will be greeting them by name as all three have previously met :)
-
"Sure that sounds fine." Velocity said with nod. She then looked over at Emissary. "So, we about finished up here for now?"
-
Velocity was waiting in the lounge area with Emissary for their guests to arrive (though waiting was not one of the things she did best). As they waited, the young speedster occasionally glanced up at the large welcome banner, a slight smile on her face. It had not been that long ago that she would have been the one helping to put up similar banners and decorations at North Bay Academy. "You know, you probably would have enjoyed getting into school spirit in high school." Velocity teased her silver teammate as they waited. When the first of the other heroes arrived, a wide, friendly smile came to her very pretty face. "Hi there. Good to see you."

Here are a pic from the School Disco website :)

After sightseeing all day, the girls had done a small bit of shopping near their hotel before heading back to get a bit of rest for their night out. Grabbing a light dinner, they made their way back to their rooms to get ready. Megan changed out of the clothes she had worn all day and took a quick shower. Then, she put on the clothes that were the required dress code of the club they were visiting tonight. She had a plaid, red and blue skirt, with a white, short sleeve dress shirt. With that she added a tie with the same colors of her skirt, which she left very loose around her neck, and long, black stockings that went up to her knees and black thick heeled shoes. Looking at herself in the mirror in the school uniform outfit, she was not at all surprised at how good she looked in the school girl uniform. Satisfied, she made her way over to grab a small black purse before heading out to see if Lisa and Janet were ready. A short while later, the three girls, all dressed in school girl outfits, exited the cab they had rode to the School Disco. There was a good sized line outside the club already, with both men and women all dressed in school uniforms. "This place is pretty popular." Janet said with an approving nod. "Yeah. Supposedly it is not uncommon for a celebrity or two to show up." Lisa said with smile. "Then what are we waiting for?" Megan said with a grin before she started forward to get in line. The wait was not too terribly long, though for Megan it certainly seemed to drag on for far longer. One of the disadvantages of having a somewhat different perspective of time than most. A few guys had tried to talk with the girls while they were waiting in the line, but they turned out to be not that interesting, so Megan was thankful when they finally reached the front of the line and were able to make their way inside. As they walked in, the music playing was from the 80's, Lisa having mentioned that the place was known for playing more "classic" rock and dance music, the theory being that it was the school dance music from when most patrons had been in school. Megan did not mind too much, as there were some good old songs, plus the atmosphere seemed very upbeat. The three girls made their way into the main room, which was more like a traditional club, with a large open area that was only faintly lit, with strobe lights and spotlights, flashing around the add momentary additional lighting. The dance floor was packed with men and women, all dressed in the mandatory school uniforms. "We should have just worn our cheerleading outfits." Janet yelled so she could just be heard over the music. "That would actually have worked." Lisa shouted back. "Too bad we had to turn them in when we graduated." "I think we are getting plenty of attention as is." Megan replied back, noting out of the corner of her eye more than a few of the males nearby watching the three intently. "Shall we get out on the dance floor?" The other two girls nodded, and they headed out into the crowd, just as Real Wild Child, by Iggy Pop began to play.

"Well, I think the Harry Potter books have changed how plenty of people view the terms 'wizard' and 'witch', but I'll use whatever term you prefer." Velocity said with a shrug. She then nodded at Archangel's question if whether moving the unconscious criminal down to street level would speed things up. "Yeah, that would speed things up a lot." She replied. "If you think you can handle carrying him, we can move down there to wait for them. If he wakes up and tries to get away, I have a trick or two I don’t use much but could stop him from splatting on the sidewalk."
-
Sorry about the delay in replying, but was considering what I wanted to do with that freed up PP. I will take it and apply it to Velocity's base Dexterity. This will make her Dex an even number and bump up all her Dex based skills and her Reflex save. Thanks :)

Velocity got a 19 on her notice check. Also Herid, her visor gives her extended on her sight, and 360 degree sight. Only a 46 for initiative.

"STAR Squad? They are just a branch of the FCPD. None of them have powers, but they have some special training and equipment that helps them in dealing with metathreats." Velocity replied as Raven asked about the unit. She then gave Archangel a grin as she replied. "Slowing down for a bit isn't too bad, but they will take a looooonnnng time. They have to get here, then they have to get all the way up here. But least I don't have to wait alone this time."
-
"Yeah, you guys do have a bit of a different look, and abilities are certainly different." Velocity agreed with a nod. When Raven asked about her abilities, she nodded again and gave a broad smile. "Yep, one of the fastest people on the planet. Normally when I break the sound barrier, the sonic boom isn't too big, but when I need to, I can create one that tends to flatten bad guys." The speedster then looked over at Archangel as she introduced herself and gave her a nod. "Nice to meet you Archangel." She then looked down at the crook as the winged woman mentioned the unconscious criminal. "Oh yeah, him." Lifting up her communicator again, the speedster connected to the police frequency. "This is Velocity of the Freedom Squad, I am going to need a STAR team at…hmm, one sec." She said as she realized she could not tell the officers how to get where she was. "Be right back." She said to the other two before she was then gone in a blur of yellow. In a second she was down the side of the building and was out in front of the building. Then she sped back up the side of the building and came to a halt back in almost exactly the same spot she had been standing in. Holding the communicator back up, she began speaking once more, "yeah, sorry about that. I have a superpowered criminal on the roof of 1444 Forest in Midtown." After getting confirmation that a team was on their way, she looked back at the other two on the roof and smiled. "Well, now we just have to wait. My least favorite part."

Velocity waited as the cloaked woman completed whatever it was she was doing to look for more criminals. when she reported it all clear, the young speedster shrugged sligthly. "Not surprising, there are lots that find out they have powers and think they are unstoppable." When the cloaked woman took off her hood and introduced herself, Velocity gave her a slight grin. "Raven huh? You do know there is another heroine in this town by that name right? She has been at the superhero thing for quite a while too." She then looked over at the winged woman that was with them as Raven asked her question, this time Velocity's grin broadened. "I've actually met one or two that looked like an angel."
-
"About time." Velocity replied in a teasingly impatient tone. It was only a second after Doctor Archeville had said get some refreshment than she was back in the control room with a bottled water, standing behind the doctor and looking over his shoulder as he worked. "How long will it take to finish the turbine?" She asked curiously.

Okay, ready to spend Velocity's 2 PP. One will be for skills: 2 ranks to Acrobatics, making it: Acrobatics 12 (+15/+20) 1 rank to Bluff, making it: Bluff 4 (+8/+20 w/ Attractive) 1 rank to Diplomacy, making it: Diplomacy 4 (+8/+20 w/ Attractive) The second point will be to her Will save, making it: Will +7 (+1 Wis, +6) Also, there is one minor thing that needs updating as well. Her occupation is now: College Student

The speedster shook her head when the winged woman asked if she was hurt. "No, nothing serious. I was able to break away from the electrical field he had up around himself before I really got hurt." "I'm Velocity by the way." She then added by way of introduction while she watched the clocked woman to see what she might discover.
-
Velocity's goggles, designed by Deadalus, included infrared and ultraviolet filters, as well as image enhancing technology. She spotted the cloaked figure as "she" appeared at the edge of the rooftop. The speedster did not react immediately, waiting to see what action the new figure made as she casually pulled out her Freedom League communicator. When the figure asked a question instead of attack, Velocity relaxed just slightly, and turned slowly towards the figure, giving her a smile. "Oh not much, just a typical night of stopping a superpowered criminal." As she was facing the cloaked figure, the young speedster spotted the flying figure approaching as well, looking up into the sky as she shrugged. "For the moment things are pretty well under control. Was just going to call for police to collect this guy. Thanks for the offer of assistance though."
