The Dark Reign begins. (open)

[stormshadow]

     President Norman Osborn in Washington having a meeting with the Congress. After meeting with a few of the Senators who seem to believe the RFID chip for supers and mutants would cause more problems than it would suppose help, a large group pleads for them to not pass this bill. The final vote on the issue did not pass.

     "Ladies and Gentlemen of Congress, can I have your attention please. The United States of America is something special, we don't back down to terrorism foreign or domestic. Sometimes Congress fails the people. Yesterday, yes... just yesterday you saw the chaos out there. Does it ever end. Bring me something soon. I'll help pass what needs to be done. Until then we need to take matters into our own hands. I have assigned H.A.M.M.E.R. representatives to take action soon. "

Three Days later New York City:

A group of Hitech thieves stole some artifacts in the Purifiers possession and bringing them to New York. They moved it to their place inside one of the newest towers owned by Oscorp science division. They came across some information leading them to what they have stolen after many months. Some of the thieves were interested in what was inside a metal coffin. Three of the tech guys break into the coffin it was seemingly empty a partially burnt corpse that seemed to be one of the leaders of the Purifiers maybe. Another artifact caught their eye it was almost calling to the thieves it was a normal looking spear, unlike anything they ever seen.

A thief by the name of John makes a call," I need to speak to the Hydra agent Alex, tell him we found the spear he was asking about curious about what the reward amount is?"



" Only a jumper today yeah, he died and how was I supposed to know he had a cheap shirt on. I'm getting the hang of the suit, this is boring. Get me some action now. Oh, a Bank Robbery at the Bank of New York just starting, I'm on my way. Today the world meets the New Iron Patriot...Hahaha. Four suspects just entered the bank, I have visual bring me up the cameras inside."

Bank of New York


A man awaits outside in an old beat-up Fire engine Red Dodge Ram. Four men dressed all in black clothes had entered the bank. Two of which have pulled most of the people to the left side of the bank and taken things of value from the hostages then put into a duffle bag. Many phones scattered out along the floor. The other two robbers dragged a shot employee to the safe, they are armed with guns and wearing body armor. "Open the door man, we need to get out of here. Hurry the F@#K up or we shoot your Lady friend." Three duffel bags were near the safe, one had a few tools in it.

Robbie gazed down at the first check since joining the new workshop. He got to work on classic cars and got paid a good paycheck. Man, New York was already better than Los Angelas was. The school was safer without gangs running around so he didn't have to worry about Gabe who was walking almost perfectly now. It had been three months since Excaliber had healed his little brother and since then both their lives had gotten better. He had met Finesse and that was going well, Gabe had friends now and was doing better in school, and the new job was bringing in the money.

He was standing in line waiting to deposit his first check when the doors burst open and four men ran inside, guns in hand, wearing black masks and jackets. Seriously? Well, guess the classics never got old. Robbie felt the rider inside awaken but held it back, a bank robbery wasn't really high on his priority list at the moment. Simply comply and all will be fine. He walked over to the wall with the others and sat down, folding his check into his pocket. He dropped his cell phone on the floor and waited for all this to end. He could intervene but if he did, he wouldn't be able to cash his check today and they needed groceries.

This wasn't the first robbery that Robbie had been stuck in, it happened at a Seven Eleven in LA and at a drug store a week later. The sound of a gunshot and a scream however turned the situation. If people were going to be hurt than sadly he had to get involved. He stood up, one of the guys seeing him aimed a gun and told him to sit down.

"I want you to know you brought this on yourself."

His eyes flashed orange and Robbie was gone, a flaming skull being stood where he had stood a moment ago, dressed in what looked like a Nascar like jumper, the man yelled and fired but as the bullets hit him they either melted into slag or fell to the floor. The Rider was on the man in a moment, his skeletal hand gripping his throat and slamming him into the ground.

He looked around at the others, breathing a column of smoke. The Ghost Rider was on the scene!

Klara had been in high spirits as normal. If anything after meeting Kei she felt even happier. Arbor had done her good and she was glad to have experienced time out of the city. So in all her jollity she wandered down the road until she spotted Robbie. She had tried calling to him but in the hussel and bustle of New York she wasn't heard. She wanted to tell him the good news and to ask his advice so she followed him into the bank. She was shoved further inside by a bank robber and tried to get out the way she had come in but another person was blocking her way and was soon pushed towards the wall. Sitting down she tried to keep her nerves from effecting the plants. Even so some of them had already started growing. One approched her for her belongings.

"I don't have anything! I'm with my big brother!"

She pointed to Robbie. When the gun sound she let out a squeal of alarm. She had heard guns go off in the past but nothing sounded like that. It was enough for the plants to suddenly grow huge blocking the exit and pushing the man away from Klara. Klara covered her ears as the plants moved to protect her and the other civilians. The foye had just become a jungle and the plants were not friendly to the robbers.

"Iron Patriot we have a couple situations brewing a group of sentinels have just popped up heading towards Manhattan. We identified the Purifiers have begun attacking the mutant district. We have alerted S.H.I.E.L.D. and other proper channels perhaps you should come back in. This just in ESU is on a possible threat, we have not made any proof of credible intel yet. A large protest has started outside the Daily Bugle. Rumors on chat rooms and threats, a Purge is coming."
"Four men and one outside. I alerted law enforcement and the news crews. I need to deescalate this situation first. Any news on new recruits? Put out a word I'm looking for Bullseye, Moonstone, Aries at the moment."

Iron Patriot approaches from the sky the news and law enforcement begin to show up. He hovers waiting for conformation. "Sir, we have a problem someone inside is jamming communications into the bank. A possible six actor in this. If you go in, you will be blind as far as conventual communication. Your slipping in the polls sir should we tell the world who you are?"

"Hehehe...Oh spare me the pleasantries is it safe for me to go in or not?

Robber #1 holds a gun to the bank teller's head. She is visibly shaking." Now, open the safe or you will be attending Karrie's funeral. That's better." Robber #2 number two makes his way into the safe and starts unloading safe deposit boxes and any of value he can find. Robber #3 yells," Looks like we got company spread out." Robber #4 focus on the group of hostages. the driver who just came in begins to panic." Oh, Shit this looks bad, how we are getting out of this." Robber #1 tosses the driver a handgun. That was when all kinds of weird stuff began happening a man with a racecar jumper and a flaming skull. And almost immediately after plants everywhere the robbers begin firing at the man and the plants pushing the one woman to the ground.
