Night Terrors (Open to all)

[X'Sharri]

Needles filled with strange substances, painful howling, human screaming, red blood, and white-coated men carrying shock collars, Remus knew he was having another nightmare even while he was sleeping through one. The nightmare felt so real, like he had suffered through all that he was experiencing in this dream. Remus gave a animalistic shriek of pain as he turned over in the small cot he considered a bed. His claws came out, destroying the matress, pillow and bedsheets in his fit. His shredding exposed bedsprings and these started to stick out, cutting him slightly and adding to the realistic feel of the nightmare.

Giving a howl, he transformed into his wolf form, going into a savage mode where he was still experiencing his dream. Rolling off of the bed and onto his feet, Remus howled, bursting through the wooden door after scratching at it, his growls turning into whines until he broke through. A woman was getting into the house when this was going on, and she went upstairs to check what was happening. She was suddenly barreled into by the frenzied wolf, pushing her off the flight of stairs into unconsciousness. Remus got a bit of blood on his teeth during his stuggle in the bed, making him look even more savage then he was when he went into the streets. There were a few nightwalkers, and those that were there were suddenly running, screaming from the sounds of demonic howling. Remus attacked a few people, causing them minor to severe injuries due to his claws and teeth, but thankfully not death. In his delusion, they were all white coat people trying to do something that Remus didn't know about but was primally scared of.

[Spiderman]

Swinging around the night sky, as well, you know...he always was. Peter had forgotten how much he enjoyed this sense of freedom, there was nothing like it. Nothing like swinging through the city, well its something only Peter had. and Pete alone.

Turning a corner his Spider-sense flared up, so much that he actually missed grabbing on to his next webline. Falling now Peter was about to smash straight into the ground. His most paramount thought was simply 'this is going to hurt' recoiling his hands he shot a bunch of webs hoping one, just one; would attach, finally something connected meters away from the ground "Yike-a-hooty!!" Pete yelled out as he jumped to the ground comfrotably

he looked around the corner, finally seeing what was causing the commotion it was a....a wolf. it looked bigger than usual, and savage "Oh man, where do these things come from!" Pete yelled in exasperation. And he ran up near it looking to the people
"ohk everybody, This is a job for Spider-Man, can all the shockers and other lame people clear the area why i take care of....well whatever this is"

[X'Sharri]

Remus could smell something off in the air, and his current savageness reacted to it. He sniffed the air, stepping over the bodies of people who were unconscious after being attacked. Remus's long claws scrapped the asphalt below him as he searched for the source of the odd smell before laying his frenzied yellow eyes on Spiderman. A growl erupted from his throat, getting closer to Spiderman with each step that he took.

Remus stepped back only to prepare himself to pounce, moving side to side kind of akin to his normal stance. Suddenly, he ran for a small distance than jumped, claws extended and ready to kill Spiderman. In his mind, Remus was still fighting off his dream, thinking that he was still in bed- not attacking and hurting them. His wolf form was responding to the fear that was brewing inside of Remus' mind and was acting on that primal fear by attacking everyone who it considered a threat. Remus considered Spiderman a threat because of the odd smell that was coming from the other superhero.

[Mach V]

It wasn't really wandering aimlessly if you had a purpose, was it now? When that purpose didn’t really have a location associated with it, it did kind of stray towards meandering though.
Abe had been cruising across the city at a thousand feet or so, at a restrained hundred miles per hour. He was planning on re-forming the superhero team that had made him who he was today, and making more of a name for himself in the superpowered community.

Unfortunately, he had no real idea where to start when it came to recruiting Thunderbolts. Last time he’d put the team back together they had a driving force – a conflict that seemed to recruit and glue the members back together without his help at all.
Now though, he hadn’t heard from any of them in years – not since before the war, and wasn’t exactly the people person of the year.

So Abe had taken to the skies, finding that it usually helped him to think at the very least. Most people might sleep on their problems, especially at this hour. Abe wasn’t most people however, and it was during this meandering around the city that he noticed a scene of bloodier carnage than even the Hulk had produced a few days earlier.

He slowed and circled the area, using his suit’s visual imaging to examine the scene in detail. Looking closely, it seemed as if some huge wolf-creature was tearing up both the streets and citizens of New York.
People littered the road and sidewalks, lying dead or dying in gathering pools of their own blood. It was a scene of devastation, and it could not be allowed to continue.

He hadn’t been sure what the white wolf-man-thing, who had helped in the fight with the Hulk, really was. Then he’d almost pulled the trigger on that thing, so to speak, just because of the way it looked and acted.
This overgrown black little beast had given Abe plenty of reason, and now he was going to kill it.

He suddenly flared his wings and dived straight down, powering hard with his repulsorlift systems as he aimed himself at the beast, accelerating hard.

Abe broke the sound barrier moments before impact, sending a sonic boom echoing about the nearby streets. As the ground drew close enough, Abe retracted his wings and turned his body, aiming his legs at the ground and punching down hard into the asphalt.

There was a terrific crash as Abe landed only meters away from the wolf and the ground erupted all around him. Chunks of tarmac and concrete arced into the air as dust went up around the relatively small impact crater.
Car alarms were going off up and down the street as the dust cleared, revealing the tall and heavily armoured figure at the centre of the impact. Abe stood there, arms outstretched as he tracked the monster. Somehow it had escaped being crushed by Abe’s sudden arrival, but his suit soon re-acquired it.

“You’re out of time, freak.” Abe muttered, half to himself as he loaded two high yield warheads into his gauntlet and charged his lasers to full power. He was starting to enjoy the macho, hero crap.

/// OOC: Spidey, I’m relying on you to be my conscience here. Stop me from trying to kill it. Be a goody two shoes

[Silent Wolf]

(OOC: Hope you guys don't mind me jumpin' in here. If so, just tell me so via PM)

Silent Wolf jumped from building to building, doing a little late night patrol when the sound of screams and bestial growling caught his ears. The howls and other animal noises were unmistakably those of a wolf.
The sounds sent the lycan on a long trip down Memory Lane--back when he and his clan fought against the humans to protect their forest.

With great speed Silent Wolf rushed to the scene, and saw that a black wolf was causing a good deal of havoc. But why? He wasn't sure.

Suddenly, with a boom a familiar armored man dropped down ready to fire at the wolf. It was the man from a few days back in the fight against The Hulk.
His green werewolf eyes widened when he saw what the man was about to do, and he then jumped down a few yards in front of him, smashing his fist into the asphalt. There was no way he was about to let anyone harm one of his own, regardless of the circumstances. If anybody was going to stop this wolf being it was going to be Kyoudai.
The lycan rose up to his full 8-feet, and glared at Mach V as though warning him to lower his weapons.

[Spiderman]

Pete sighed to himself "you know, i think new york is just getting far to busy for me these days. Throwing his arms up in the air 'For god sake, cant a Spider just wail on a guy without bumping into a million other Super-powered wierdos!" Jumping on the side of the wall between all of them he shot a whole lot of web gluing everyone in place (well at least for now)

"Ok everybody chill the heck out!" Looking toward them, ok; savage uh...wolf thing, and uh another...savage wolf thing and (he almost smiled)
"Is that The Beetle?!" It wasn't until now Peter noticed his ears were bleeding. he pulled his hands up to his ears and blood was seeping through his mask
oh great, must of been the damn sonic boom. Falling to his feet he looked around the situation and didn't say anything, this was a massively hopeless soloution.

[huntress]

(OOC: I hope ya won't mind me joining, if ya do just say a word, PM, and I'll delete this one)

Helena, Huntress, she didn't particularly know which one she was at the moment. It was night time so she felt like she should be Huntress but she wasn't wearing her costume. Only thing related to that was her utility belt, where her crossbow was. Her long, beige jacket covered the weapon nicely. She was driving her motorcycle, figuring she'd get some Chinese food. Helena was speeding but she didn't care. Cars and buildings flashed by and she didn't pay any attention to them. Suddenly she noticed the road in front of her had cracked. It looked like a crater. She didn't stop but crossed it with no problem, her motorcycle bounced as it hit the erupted ground. Helena was a good driver, it didn't slow her down to do a little motocross.

Sure, roads didn't slow down Huntress, but something she thought she saw from the corner of her eye did. Quickly she pulled the breaks on her black bike. The wheel let out a shriek and the breaks allowed her to turn around simultaneously. The smell of burnt rubber stung her nostrils slightly and she drove back to the place where the erupted ground was.

She pulled over and looked at the odd scenery. Oh hell I should have just ignored this. There was a guy in a spider suit, standing on the street, looking at bunch of things wrapped in...some sort of...web? Huntress jumped off her bike and slowly walked to them. "I knew coming to New York would get me into trouble sooner or later." She muttered as she walked. "What the hell is going on?" She asked feeling like she should be drawing her crossbow right about now. Then she spotted the black wolf that looked familiar. "...Remus???"

[X'Sharri]

Remus was near to breaking out of delusional dream as shown by the twitching that was showing in his wolf form. It was typical twitching that someone would expect in a human sleepwalking, or something a long those lines. Remus' inner pain right now from all of the scratches and not knowing what was going on was joined by a new pain- the sonic boom.

His ears were bleeding and he could temporarily barely hear anything. However, as more and more people arrived it gave him time to recover his ear strength to more than half of what it was before. A primal fear, which the white wolf could probably smell, was around him, he wasn't aware of his attack against innocent people, just against the scientists in his dream.

In Remus' mind he began to have flashbacks of the days before he was found by the street gang. They were painful, and made the young wolf man want to just run away from something. However, Remus couldn't remember what it was that he wanted to run away from. He kept hearing things, nightmares messing with his head. Suddenly though, it stopped and he heard something soothing for once. "Remus?" he could hear someone else say, someone whose scent was familiar- Helena.

He instantly reverted back to his human form, although it wasn't a complete. His hair was long, and swooshing like a tail, on top of the dog ears and yellow eyes that his form was now sporting. Remus could feel blood on his teeth and on his hands first thing, and nearly threw up, turning his head to the side.

He was very, very groggy and confused, his yellow eyes looking around trying to figure out what had gone on. Remus also noticed that he was wrapped in some sort of sticky substance- like a web. "Uhn...why do I feel like I've been run over with an 18-wheeler?" Remus immediately asked, managing to wriggle a badly cut and bruised arm over to where he could push his new long hair out of the way.

"What happened?" he immediately asked once he could smell blood- a lot of it. Inside, he really knew what had gone on, another one of his night terrors...he hadn't secured himself that well tonight thinking it had gone away. How could I be so stupid? he thought to himself, dying to get the taste of innocent blood out of his mouth. There was one thing that he was glad about though- he had worn his jeans and t-shirt to bed, normally he would have been wearing only basketball shorts.

[Silent Wolf]

Spider-Man's webbing only pissed off the lycan--he wasn't fond of being trapped. However, he easily broke free from the web using his great strength and claws. Once free from the webs he turned back into his human form, and approached Remus.
"Are you wounded child of the moon?" Silent Wolf asked Remus in a low voice as he knelt down in front of him.

[huntress]

Huntress glanced at Remus' shaggy appearance, slowly she shifted her hand closer to her crossbow, packed under her long jacket. She moved on to looking at the spider man. "What did you do to him, Spandex?" She hissed at him. Helena didn't know what was going on but something was wrong with this picture. Her brows rose slightly when she saw the other wolf creature turn into a human. "Great, so there is more of you in this city." She muttered to herself as she listened to him make a poetic statement about the 'child of the moon'. Child of the moon with too much hairspray...

[Spiderman]

Pete jumped off the wall and moved to the girl that just called him spandex
"What did i do? I didn't do anything, i was just here...you know; saving people!" Pete said a little annoyed. Truth be said, his fuse was a little shorter these days

Swinging around he looked to the others. the massive wolf guy, the guy that was once a wolf, and this..well; whatever she was
"so is this one big happy family yet? or am i going to have to web some more people?"

[huntress]

"Oh don't you dare touch me with that goo!" Helena warned raising a finger. Huntress was not amused. The scenery was way too odd. Well at least she had recognized Remus. But there was that big guy and that other wolf man. Plus the now annoyed Spandex. "And saving people from what? 'Cause all I see is your webs around these guys." Her eyes narrowed slightly. And spiders tend to use their webs for hunting...and eating. God knows what freak I've run into. Man this city....

[Mach V]

This was entirely ridiculous, Abe thought to himself as he tore at the webbing around his suit, ripping it away slowly with the powerful, deliberate motions of his suit. People were lying in the street, dying and all the web-head had to offer was some of his fantastic, sticky crap. He still hated that guy.

So, now there were two men, instead of two wolves and a woman dressed up in some outfit, as well as him and the web head. Great. He should probably go ahead and kill the two wolf-men-things just to be on the safe side, but then again that wasn’t particularly bold and heroic was it? Best to simply call the boys in blue – and that was exactly what Abe did.

Within seconds he had reported the situation to the police and ambulance services, and decided to do nothing more than contain the culprits.

Abe couldn’t help but wonder, as he looked around at the carnage surrounding him, why spider-man was here at all, and what on earth he was doing just watching the wolf-things.

“No it’s not the Beetle, web-head. It hasn’t been for a long time.” MACH V yelled at spider-man, projecting his voice with his suit’s vox unit.

“Now, what the hell is going on?” He asked loudly, keeping is weapons aimed at both spider-man and the wolf-people, as he slowly took off, hovering into the air.

[X'Sharri]

His wolfish ears twitched as he sat up, his eyes trained on the wolfman infront of him. "They're more wolfmen?" were the first words that came out of his mouth, before he shook his head and listened to what the wolf asked him. "Yea...we need to get the people I harmed over to the hospital though. Since I'm probably gonna be busy with the feds would you please make sure that happens?" Remus asked the other wolfman, cutting the webbing off of his with his claws.

The second thing he noticed was Helena telling off a guy in spandex and a guy with guns pointing at both the wolfmen and the spandex guy. "Helena, it's a good thing he covered everyone in that goo- it shook me back to consciousness, a long with your scent of course" Remus said, putting a hand to his head, forcing himself to stay awake. He smelled a strange scent on his clothing and hair, like he'd been exposed to some sort of sleeping gas that had somehow caused him to have night terrors.

He looked at the robot person in front of him that was currently probably pretty angry from the way his voice sounded. Remus didn't blame him, he'd probably be angry too if he saw another person ripping people apart. "Sleepwalking, to be more precise a night terror," he said, telling the truth. Remus had put two and two together when he had woken up with the disgusting taste of normal human blood in his mouth and the squishiness of it in his hand. He tried to force his wolfish exterior back, but it tired him too much so he stopped.

[Spiderman]

Pete groaned. there were too many people here. And one of them just had to be the damned Beetle didn't it, If he put all the people here who had a grudge against him, and put them in New York City he'd have....well he'd have New york city..

Looking towards Beetle he cocked his head to the side "Whatever you say Mack" The other girl was really starting to cheese him off. Pointing his finger at her "This goo, as that guy just said, held everyone in place why i could asses the situation lady!"

Jumping up so he was again on the wall, he breathed out a sigh as he looked at all the bodies, Then back up to Mach "I assume you have alerted the Police and such mack?" Climbing a little higher, he looked toward the wolf guy "Ok i don't know what the hell just happened with you two, but you might wanna clear out if there's cops coming, they kind of tend to frown against multiple killings, as do most people actually" said Pete with a tint of spite.
