       The Beginning of an Age

       Fifteen years ago the world was rid of it's heroes. Fifteen
       years ago the world had no hope. Fifteen years ago the villains
       had nothing left to fear. The created heroes were just getting
       used to their powers, so they hid in the shadows slowly working
       their way into the new city the villains founded Morrigan named
       after Arthur's biggest threat to power. So now with their city
       established and corrupt cops and politicians running things. The
       villains believed they were finally free to do as they pleased.
       Their leader a true immortal being who assisted in founding the
       city. Was now about to face his biggest threat in over fifteen
       years. The created heroes had finally honed their skills enough
       to start to back what was rightfully theirs.

       Sitting in an ally, a cloak over his head casting a shadow over
       his face, rain falling from the sky coating everything with it's
       coldness. A passer by bumps into Akatsuki's feet waking him from
       his slumber, lifting his head to looks at the man who bumped
       into him, his blue eyes seemed to shine due to their color. The
       man tossed down some change. "Sorry." Thinking he was just
       another homeless man, he walked away. Akatsuki sighed before
       getting to his feet, looking up toward the dark sky, rain drops
       hitting his face. "Old man..." He closed his eyes before heading
       off down the alleyway. It wasn't to long till the sound of
       garbage cans hitting the ground echoed through the alleyways,
       followed by a muffled scream of a women. Turning the corner
       Akatsuki spotted the source, two thugs were robbing a women, and
       mostly likely going to rape and murder her, this was what the
       world as come to, not even the prison he had just escaped from
       was this bad. One thug had a gun, the other held a knife to the
       womens throat as the one with the gun yanked her necklace off
       before dumping her pocketbook to the ground to see what was in
       it. "Is this all you have?" Akatsuki shock his head turning to
       leave but stopped as the voice of the old man echoed into his
       mind. 'bout time I do some good in this world.' Those were the
       words he spoke when he agreed to help Akatsuki.
       Turning around again to look back at the two thugs he stepped
       towards them. "Let her go." The thug with the gun turned
       pointing the gun at him. "Leave if you know whats good for you
       kid." The one with the knife watched, but kept the knife to the
       womens neck. Akatsuki took a few more steps, a shot fired
       grazing his shoulder, he flinched slightly but kept walking
       towards the two. "Da fuck?" A few more shots fired this time
       hitting Akatsuki in the chest, his movement stopped his body
       bent over slightly. A few seconds passed, the two thugs just
       kind of watched, then the sound of the metal hitting pavement
       broke the silence. The bullets had been pushed from his body as
       he stood up straight, the wounds in his chest closing. "What the
       fuck?!" The man with the gun fired off a few more shots as
       Akatsuki rushed them both, his body lower to dodge most of the
       bullets. Once he got close enough he grabbed the wrist of the
       gunmen forcing him to point the gun in the air. He then brought
       his head back then forward to smash the face with a headbutt,
       this caused him to dropped the gun and hold his face with both
       hands falling back to his ass. Akatsuki spun on his heels,
       lowing his body even more so, catching the gun before it hit the
       ground, finishing the spun standing up right with the gun
       pointed at the guy who had the knife. "Last chance." The one
       with the knife gulped slightly dropping the knife and slowly
       backed away before running away, moments later the one who first
       had the gun got up and followed. "T-thank you...You saved
       mylife" Akatsuki looked at the women who thanked him, but said
       nothing in return, he just simply walked away.
       The next morning Akatsuki was walking the streets, when he
       passed a newsstand when he heard what the seller had as the
       front page. "Hero returns to the city! Saved women from two
       thugs." Akatsuki stopped to see the front page had a picture of
       the girl he saved. 'Is she talking about me?' He shock his head
       slightly pushing the thought from his head, the age of the hero
       was dead. He pulled the hood of his cloak down slightly and
       continued to walk.

       Once everyone was in the car, and he had taken off, Ciaran's
       attention settled on Faith. "I apologize for my ambiguity back
       ther, Mr. Alexander." He said calmly. My name can't be shared
       everywhere." He took a deep breath before taking the exit off to
       the freeway. "My name is Ciaran Cross, and as of today, We'll be
       working together to get your abilities under control.  When he
       heard Ziya's question, he handed her a folder. Inside it was a
       fake I.D, and a set of plane tickets. The woman in the image was
       middle aged, but looked quite well for her fourty-something. She
       had Red hair, like Ziya's, but her eyes were a honey brown. She
       appeared to have a tinge of hispanic flavor in her, but it
       couldn't be known for sure. "That's your next form." He told
       her. "Take it now." It wasn't long before he pulled into the
       airport. and when he did, he placed a new cuff on Faith, but
       only on his left wrist.  "The old ones will come off when we
       reach our destination." He told the man confidently. With that,
       he began his own task for this step, taking the form of a
       carefree father, while Faith and Cambria were given the form of
       teenagers. "Are you ready for Hawaii family?!" The father asked.
       His voice was completely different than normal. It would seem he
       had rehearsed this role well.  He went around to the trunk and
       pulled out four suitcases full of clothes that would fit the
       forms each of them had taken. Getting past security was as easy
       as before. Ciaran held onto all the family's passports, and
       before long, they were on a plane to Hawaii... Ciaran didn't
       answer any questions concerning their trip during their walk
       through the airport, and once they were comfortably seated in
       first class, he seemed quite refreshed.  He was up to something,
       but as usual, no one would know what until he was ready.

       The man's voice ran though my ears , his apology for the false
       name gave me a grin . Mr Cross , I would like to introduce
       myself but you already know who I am , my background ,
       everything .The man's voice he sounded proper , educated ,
       always one step ahead of a situation if it was called for , a
       CEO ..Having these cuff free for the first time felt weird .
       Never in my life I felt like this , free. Then a cuff was just
       place on his left wrist . Understandable he would take measures
       to if he had a background like mine . Thinks got quiet again
       when we got to the airplane. Silence was my best friend and it
       seems like he would still be my friend . . Where are we I
       wonder. The sound of jets taking off scared me . Cross must know
       that people with no sight was fearful of flights.each step they
       took to the airline I resisted a little more to we got onto the
       plane. Even blind his eyes showed fear , something even jail
       couldn't do . I stay silent but the sighs that I was unconfirmed
       where showing

       Cambria is watching Faith. Having changed into a simple T-shirt
       with Wally's Waffle House and a pair of short shorts and flip
       flops, she looked every bit the teenager but this ma was far too
       reserved and quiet and his halting steps were making her uneasy.
       With a small groan she reaches out, touches his arm, and lowers
       his resistance just a bit, or at least she tries to.

       Features to change once again, though it was easier this time
       since the woman resembled her in subtle ways. Ziya, now in her
       mid 40s but still looking like she had never had the two
       children trailing behind her. She was not a fan of flying but it
       got them where they had to go, though she did not know how Faith
       was going to react to the new cuffs, let alone, the new
       environment. There was not a fear of safety for herself or the
       others in her 'family' but a fear for the pilot and the other
       passengers. Was he going to get to the point of doing something
       that Ciaran was going to regret...or just something that had
       been expected but left to simmer for too long....

       Once everyone was secured, and the plane had taken off, Ciaran
       appeared to be completely at rest. For the past 24 hours, it had
       been all business. He had followed the schedule that Cambria had
       given him to a T, however, each event on that schedule had been
       leading up to this moment. The moment where he could lean his
       chair back in his seat and let out a big yawn before his eyes
       drifted shut. However, those who knew Ciaran knew that his guard
       was never completely down. If someone needed to speak with him,
       he was fully attentive and able to respond. In fact, he was the
       first to speak up. "So none of you want's to know why we're
       suddenly up and going to Hawaii?" First Class was much better
       for conversation. After all, who knew who else could be
       listening in?

       My resists failed with a soft gentle hand pushing me onto the
       plane. Sitting down my eyes started to wonder even though I
       couldn't see, The ground under me was hollow . A big stomp gave
       my ears a visual about a quarter of the plane.. It was huge,
       beyond my own imagination. My fears started to expose there
       self's more and more with me sitting on this plane.The lights
       started to flicker rapidly ,then the planes power started to
       turn on and off randomly.
       The pilot came on the intercom trying to keep his calm but even
       he didn't know what was going on. Then these new cuffs activated
       and everything just stop. It was strange in a way , not cause
       they where new cuff, but they didn't take no energy from him. it
       even kelp his discharge at bay .. Cross said something about
       Hawaii ,"Hawii? Ummm umm Mr Cross ca.. ca.. ca..   can I use the
       latrine . I mean bathroom .. Anyone with a good ear could hear
       the fear and sickness in his voice.
       Waiting for a yes and no answer I only image being grounded and
       off this god damn plane .

       Cambria leans over and speaks into Faith's ear, calmly so as not
       to scare him. " Listen, first off my name is Cambria, or
       Glitter, whichever you prefer. Now, as long as we are in public
       you ought to act like a teenager which means no asking for
       permission and try to look bored. If you get really nervous just
       talk to me okay?"

       Upon hearing Faith's request, Ciaran stood up, and walked over,
       placing a hand on the man's shoulder. "Alright son. Let's go."
       He then guided the man to the bathroom, before making his way
       back to speak with Cammy. He leaned forward and whispered in her
       ear calmly. "You know what you're doing well." He told her.
       "You're to a point now that I don't have to tell you what to do,
       because  you already know how I operate. But Faith is a
       different story. He can't see, so he -has- to ask, otherwise he
       wouldn't be able to make it on his own, especially when we're
       not on the ground, where he could feel his surroundings." He
       looked from Cambria, to Ziya, and back. "I'll need your help
       looking out for him, until he get's used to being free again."
       He then headed back to the restroom door to await Faith's exit,
       so that he could guide the man back to his seat.  "Listen
       everyone." He said once everyone was together, and the hostess
       had left. "We're going to be on a min-vacation here. But I still
       have homework for each of you to work on. I'll be expecting to
       see results by the time we go back home..." And with that, his
       eyes closed once more...
