You find yourself asleep in the cab of your semi, the small truck stop off route 12 quite in the early morning haze. The truck stop owner is entering the nearby dinner who has a few patrons. The stop has two more semis stopped, and you can see a small gas station just next to you.

Across the road is a hardware store and beyond that is the river and the several story office buildings on the water front marking the downtown of Acabald.

You have 285$ and 1290₽, 123 9-19mm bullets for your Yarygin Pistol which is in good condition. In the workshop Borya has about a ton of mostly steel scrap, but some copper, aluminium and tin scrap is in there as well. His chemicals are in low supply but very diverse, he has three gallons of both bleach and ammonia, roughly a gallon of muriatic acid, as well as vinegar, and lime. Beyond that you have small quarts one holding a small amount of consecrated sulfuric acid, others holding mercury, and a small range of chemicals. You have a tank of compressed Oxygen, and one of Methane. The real treats are the small containers above the chemicals. One is lead and holds the three pounds of uranium you have, next to it is some bars of lead, gold, titanium, platinum, tungsten, and silver. You have a cnc machine, a small crucible, a work bench with a vice, a toolbox with all the essentials (lots of ratchets of all sizes!), and finally a device of Borya's creation for assembling hydraulics.

You feel metal and plastic give way as you collapse onto the structure with some force. Two buildings - Morder erroading, structural steel sub par - stand to the side of the half crushed dumpster you are sitting on. You can hear cars driving by and the light entering your alley is the dim light of dawn.

The motel was rather rank, and the windows didn't quite close you can see lake Satin Elmo from the window. The room has a ratty bed and a old tube base tv, off to the side is a bathroom that didn't lock and it wasn't much better than the rest of this cheap motel.

You check your pocket and find your Gerber Mark 2 is still there. In your other pocket is your phone, and 83.23$ in cash, and coins.

Spoiler: 'Marshell Carter'

Your mom looks up from the box, she had taken you to Acabald after the small incident that she though was your fault. The small house in the Stiltwater subburbs was bigger than your old house. She looks back up from the box then looks back and pulls out the keddle putting it on the stove top. Well good news school is still a couple weeks off.

112.10$ is in your lockbox in one of the many boxes in your room. You have already unpacked your 93 zip ties, and utility belt. Your mom took your can of mace though.

Spoiler: 'Unknown'

The buildings are simple white washed brick, you can smell the lake air blow in by the wind and hear trucks moving back and forth. As you ponder life you hear a noise above you. The sounds of two teenage girls arguing in the top of the building.

Spoiler: 'Thomas Smith'

You can see the office of your new job, your secretary pokes her head in. "Is everything alright Captain Smith?" You are now the official head of the Acabald PRT quick action center practically moving from a grunt in the big city to head honcho in the backwaters. Before you can respond your Secretary, a miss Georgia Ruthe, pulls back, moments later she pops back in. "Sir, a miss Marcus is here, she doesn't have an appointment."

The river laps against your feet the sun just reaching the horizon to break day. You can see corn fields to either side of you.

'Whats going on?' I think 'where am I?' my mind is groggy as I look around me, hearing the sounds, smelling the frankly horrible smell of trash, urine and chemicals.

One of the few positive things going on is this nice blanket I landed on, I take hold of it as I step off the dumpster and look at my body, black skin and a tail, that's not normal, I think?.

I walk out into the street carefully wrapping myself into my blanket preparing for a worst case scenario.

As you step into the street you notice the other buildings around you, a few more short reinforced brick structures, at the end of the road is a circle of road and a larger building with a white wash and pillars. A car slows down and you see a woman backing away putting one arm in front of her kid while the other pulls out a phone.

Argh, this captaincy thing was getting tiresome quick. Sure, he could delegate a good chunk of it, and was intended to as both a check on the power of a Cape in the office and to make it vaguely plausible for him to maintain his secondary identity. But really he wanted more practice with his power, not more practice with his pen. It was confining and annoying.

"Tell the people at front to extract a written statement of intent. Then fax it with standard protocols, check for the standard pass codes." On the one hand it might be something urgent. On the other hand random out of nowhere demands to meet face to face with a new department head felt wrong. So Master/Stranger protocols it was. He pulls up his own computer and begins looking through the staff directory for anyone by the name of Marcus. Hoping he hadn't just begun a troublesome feud.

I stumble toward the reaching out my right arm trying to get them to stop backing away last I start coughing when I try to talk.

'On second thought this might have been a bad idea, these lesser beings will never understand my perdiciment.' these are my thoughts as I realise that this might be unusual.

Looking over the twenty odd agents, and nearly eighty other employees turns up no records of any one in the branch, or previously in the branch named Marcus, the was one of the concle operators named Macheal but he was a man. You are pulling up civilian contractors when the fax comes through.

As head of Enjergene research and development I, Hannah Z Marcus, have come to the PRT headquarters in Acabald on behalf of the CEO of Enjergene, Quentin Kalistin, who is unavailable at this time to speak with the captain of this PRT branch office. The intent of the meeting is to speak with the new captain and bring him up to speak with the arrangement between Enjergene and the Acabald PRT.

A second report shows that she passes a quick background check and that she is indeed who she says she is, or is high enough of a stranger you can't tell otherwise.

As you stumble forward the woman grabs her child and runs away the man in the car has left it and is now pointing a gun - Stance good, well trained grip strong but right hand loser, previous damage that never fully healed, slight favoring of right leg, left is fractions weaker due to old injury. The gun is well maintained an unlikely to misfire, the aim is several centimeters high and to the left- at you and yelling. "This is the police unknown parahuman please stand down and put your hands in the air."

'Well then, this could be worse' I think as I run at him, legs slamming against the ground as I plan on grabbing his right arm and use my tail to bat at his weak leg.

'He thinks he's stronger than me, yeah right he thinks he's stronger than the best of the best and he and everyone else needs to learn that is wrong'

Your motions are quick and graceful the bullet hits your carapace deflecting off at a slight angle, as the second shot misses you pull his right arm away and you hear a loud crack. Your tail hits his leg and he falls nearly a foot before a loud pop is hear and the man is supported by his arm.

You hear a sound like a light snapping and can see a teenaged boy holding a phone out at you - Some training, it favories quick strikes. Not completely in shape, has allergies- the man in your arm attempts to strike you with a tazer using his remaining hand.

It was probably safe enough. On the other hand a little caution never hurt when doing this sort of thing. A discreet tap of a button and the coming appointment would be logged and sent to another building to check for oddities. He didn't like the risk, but honestly he was relatively open schedule wise. "Good afternoon. So, tell me of this 'special relationship' you mentioned. I'm rather curious." He takes a cold and even tone. Most of the possibilities here didn't seem particularly savory, even if she wasn't a Master.

Marcus is a small woman in a simple pants suit her black hair is pinned back into a bun, she looks over her wide framed glasses at you. "Enjergene is not currently the top radio and personal equipment producer, but we are rising in the field. We had an agreement that we would sell to the Acabald PRT at a discount, in exchange if he though our product was worth it he would put in a word with the higher ups. And while we have received a contract with the Lexigton PRT, we would like to keep providing your equipment at a discount to foster relations between our organizations." He tone is smooth, fluctuating nearly on beat with the words. It was a well trained speech if nothing else.

Your intercom buzzes.

Walking to the window Fen looked towards the water with a sigh. He was stuck in a dump of a motel again and he could practically feel the filth coming from the bathroom and bed. But it wasn't like he had a better place to be and his cash was running low. Tapping the window he felt the glass respond to his touch but held himself back from manipulating it. Stupid as people generally were there was a chance that someone might see him do it and he had no desire to be run out of town again.

He wanted to focus on his current interest, but he needed to take care of his basic needs first. Especially if he was going to hang around this town for a while. From what he had seen when he had arrived it seemed a slow kind of place. Which was perfect as he doubted anyone would recognize him and he could have some piece to work on whatever caught his fancy. Like wind chimes.

Checking the time of day Fen left his motel room to case the area around him, looking for a place he could get some cash from legally or illegally.

At the counter of the motel was Rob the guy who took you money and gave you keys, though you don't know if he works there. Across the street is the train station. Down the road you can see a row of warehouses, the other way is a fast food joint, a cofee house, and a small storefront with a reinstate sign in the window. You can see several teens hanging outside of the coffee house.

Walking towards the wharehouses you reach a small road that goes over the bridge on one end and to a second road on the other, at the odd triangle between the roads is a gas station, a small truck is filling up. Going back over the bridge you can see a small cluster of trailer homes to your right, and a small convince store to your left. There is a shabby man sleeping at the bus stop in front of the store. Walking back the way you came the other direction you see a small side street before the bridge after you pass the coffee house. Down the street is a few store fronts the nearest one sells clothing, but you can see one selling kicknacks, and one for electronics. Of the last two stores one sells shoes, and the other is a blockbuster.

Gaia:
Another glorious night has ended. It's time to continue the search in the face of The Light.

I stepped out of the river, leaving footprints behind as I trudge through a green and golden welcoming mat. Humanity's foresight in preparing for one such as I to feel welcome......maybe they yet have hope. I took the time to appreciate the offering, and palmed a stick of corn, peeling it's coat.

I set off in the direction of the habitation, without a destination in mind. The world will bring me what I want. Humming a merry tune, I took a bite.

The tribute tasted of starch.

All is well.

Viktoria 'woke' up, the road was long and so when they arrived in the middle of the night, they just fell asleep in this truck stop to rest. Well, her brother did. She just watched over him or pretended to sleep. She normally took to driving in the night but they reached their destination so she let Borya have his rest.

She went to the back of the truck to change to appropriate clothes, her current clothes smell like Hell shit on her. She went to a small corner where she could make breakfast encircled by the holy junkyard that is the cargo of her brother's truck. They are out of food supplies. Damn it.

Viktoria finished cooking a basic breakfast their mother used to prepare for them. She moved back to where the driver seat is and found Borya still sleeping.

"Tsk. Wake up you lazy fuck or I'll shove my gun up your ass and shoot! Breakfast is ready!" yelled Viktoria while kicking his seat. How she managed to not drop or spill their breakfast while doing so is a mystery.

Borya was so used to this kind of rough love on the part of his sister, that even the fact of being awakened by a threat did not seem to affect him too much.

"Being awakened by your beautiful voice and words of encouragement always illuminate my morning, Viktoria" He commented with sarcam while receiving the plate that his sister offered him "How do you spend the night?"

"Like every night before it. Meh. Never actually sleeping suck."

She quickly gulped down all the plate and took a quick glass of water.

"I'll go ask the locals if there is any place we could stay in. Gratis of course." Viktoria grinned.

She descended from the truck and walked up to where a group of people were sitting and chatting.

"Hey there fellas! Name's Viktoria, we're new in town me and my brother. What can you tell us about Acabald?"

"Quite place, mostly just don't go pissing off the mob..." The man is stopped when the short blond next to him smacks his head. He looks down at her.

"If you talk like that Car, people will think you work for them. Anyway not too much, Saint Elmo's good for fishing if you don't mind trout, the mall on the other side of town is well stocked and has variety, some of the local farmers have a market on Mondays, and people tend to be nice. Anything in particular you want to know about?"

"Don't forget to mention the government is contacting aliens in the secret base of theirs." The woman pinches her forehead when a man on the far side of the table speaks up.

"The mob is whats left of the mafia that use to run Lexington, after they were run out by the New Order they set shop up here. Run a few casinos and some drug running, but they never have really been caught doing anything really bad, despite rumors about them dropping bodies in the lake." She rubs her chin. "I don't know much about what wharehouses are for lease or not, I heard that Venture got kicked out of their building down on Samuels Ave."

"That was the one they found was smuggling guns right?" The man smiles when she nods. Two nearly identical black haired women in solid teal uniforms, walk up to the dinner passing you and nodding to the group you're talking to.

And now, to properly bless the indigenous with my presence.

I strode towards a house in the middle of the line, the clacking of my scepter against the road ringing through the cloudy morning. The few people up and about looked at me reverently (cautiously), clearly in awe at my graceful gait. I leaped atop my chosen dais (a mailbox).

Once I was sure I have the attention of all the gathered faithful, I straightened my back, then proclaimed in as loud a voice as I can manage: "I am Gaia. Rejoice, for you are in the presence of the first ascendant! O' king of this land, come forth, and receive my blessings!"

Bathe in my glory, mortals! You shall learn the meaning of awe!

Behold, my......wait, what was my power again?

"It does indeed sound good to keep that relationship. Was on field duty for ages before this, so can understand how much of a difference good equipment being plentiful can make. Next time though please do make an appointment. I've had a bit of bad experience with walk ins before." He makes a note to himself to give a proper critique of the equipment later on. A salesperson was a salesperson, but if they did have a standing relationship he saw no reason to break it off for now.

"Also rather busy, speaking of which." He then signals for quiet before pressing on his intercom. "Yes?"
