				<div align="center">(http://klat.com/sites/default/files/apocalypse.png)</div><br>The Sentinel war started in the year 2027 and lasted to 2052.&nbsp; During the course of the war, a state of martial law was declared.&nbsp; Congress was disbanded and any opposition to the Sentinel's was quashed by the Sentinels themselves.&nbsp; SHIELD was decimated and relegated to nothing more than a small insurgent group by 2030.&nbsp; The Avengers, Fantastic Four, X-Men, and other organized enhanced human groups were either killed or locked away in concentration camps by 2035.&nbsp; The next five years the Sentinels made steps to solidify their control over North America and eradicate the enhanced being threat.&nbsp; Their next step was not only to launch operations against Europe and South America, but to breech the dimensional barrier to assault Asgard and Olympus.&nbsp; This was foiled by a enhanced being group named the Redeemers. <br><br>Working with what remained of SHIELD, and an underground resistance group of human military forces calling themselves the North America Liberation Army, the Redeemers and the mutant underground fought a long and protracted war against the Sentinels, forcing them to abandon expansion operations and to fight the threat that managed to rise up again in North America.&nbsp; It lasted ten years, but finally ended when the last Sentinel production facility was destroyed in the Adirondack Mountains and their command center in the ruins of New York City were destroyed.&nbsp; The operation cost the lives of the Redeemers and the Mutant Underground, and three quarters of the NLA, but the most disastrous and crippling saga in human history since the Holocaust of World War Two was over.<br><br>It is several years later, and still the world is rebuilding.&nbsp; From the ashes was formed the North America Union, a government that had been in place for the last forty years.&nbsp; The last five years had seen the restoration of the United Nations, though it now resided in Geneva, Switzerland instead of the what was the United States.&nbsp; Still it was a positive step towards global diplomatic efforts being restored and the specter of war being put into the past.&nbsp; Much like the American Civil war did over two centuries before, the Sentinel War opened the eyes of the world to war and how the extinction was no longer a theoretical exercise, but that the world was perhaps a heartbeat away from it being a reality if not for the sacrifice of people that the world tried to commit genocide against.<br><br>Many thought however that enhanced beings causing civil unrest or worse was a thing of the past.&nbsp; Humanity however can be a singular and selfish race with a short memory and only interested in its self interest.&nbsp; Once more enhance being using their abilities as a threat against society was happening, and the law enforcement of the time was unable to handle it.&nbsp; The world needed a response.&nbsp; It needed heroes.<br><br>It needs the Avengers...<br><br>This is their story.&nbsp; Avengers Assemble!<br><br><div align="center">(http://screenrant.com/wp-content/uploads/Marvel-Avengers-NOW-Female-Thor-Black-Captain-Americajpg.jpg)</div><br><div class="codeheader">Code: <a href="javascript:void(0);" onclick="return smfSelectText(this);" class="codeoperation">[Select]</a></div><pre style="margin: 0; padding: 0;"><code class="bbc_code">[floatleft][img height=200 padding=2]Pic[/img][/floatleft]<br>[b]Character Name:[/b]<br>[b]Alias:[/b]<br>[b]Time/Date:[/b]<br>[b]Location:[/b]<br>[b]Tagging:[/b] <br>[b]Mentioned:[/b]<br>[b]NSFW Warning:[/b]<br></code></pre>

				<strong>Character Name:</strong> Unknown and Friday<br><strong>Alias:</strong> Unknown<br><strong>Time/Date:</strong>&nbsp; 0034 to 0115 EDT 6 Apr 2102<br><strong>Location:</strong> Ruins of North Port Power Station, Long Island<br><strong>Tagging:</strong> None<br><strong>Mentioned:</strong> Friday<br><strong>NSFW Warning:</strong> None<br><hr><br>(http://static.srcdn.com/slir/w609-h370-q90-c609:370/wp-content/uploads/X-Men-Days-of-Future-Past-City-Destruction-700x425.jpg) (http://img.gawkerassets.com/img/18j0gusctzfhdjpg/ku-large.jpg) (http://images.fandango.com/MDCsite/images/featured/201410/TMNT%20Shredder%20Concept%20(400%20x%20545).jpg)<br><br>The ruins of New York City, a moment in so many ways, a reminder of the greatness that once was the United States, some point to it as a reminder of what humanity was capable of in the past and could be again, others use it as an example of humanity's folly, how it nearly destroyed itself with its own hubris and arrogance, and how it could not be repeated again.&nbsp; The ruins now served as a no man's land, a place of last refuge for people that had less than nothing, who did not fit into the future of the North American Union.&nbsp; The government wanted nothing to do with ruins.&nbsp; The ruins were the past, dead and buried.&nbsp; New motives, new power plays and political objectives were the path forward.&nbsp; Now more than ever people with money, power, and influence, mega corporations that only cared about their initiatives, profits, the bottom line dominated.&nbsp; Those that could not get in line had no where else to go but the ruins, and society swept them out of the way.<br><br>It was short-sighted and naive.&nbsp; New York was far from dead.&nbsp; It was a husk, a corpse, but a corpse that still held secrets, that still had treasure buried and hidden away under the rubble.&nbsp; Humanity saviors at the time, the legends as they are now called, the Fantastic Four, the Sorcerer Supreme, the old SHIELD, the Avengers, they did not trust that their greatest secrets, their technology, the relics that humanity, and perhaps more importantly at the time, the Sentinels, could not be trusted with.&nbsp; Those secrets, those forbidden relics and treasures were still there and buried, warded away to keep humanity safe.&nbsp; It was to humanity's detriment that there were people that knew about those secrets now, that the ruins of New York were a treasure trove waiting to be raided, and they were determined to take it.<br><br>That was what happened to one of the settlements in the ruins.&nbsp; They were near an old power station, using it to power the homesteads they had built around it.&nbsp; It was after midnight, the generators mostly quiet and turned off to conserve resources.&nbsp; Near everyone was asleep after yet another hard day of scavenging and working, just like any other night of their lives, or so they thought.&nbsp; The explosions happened first, right in the middle of the settlement, taking out two ramshackle home steads.&nbsp; A total of six families had lived in those rickety things that went up in flames, charred ash, and melted and scorched metal in less than three heart beats.&nbsp; That drew out everyone else from the small settlement.&nbsp; Men, women, children rushing outside, trying to make sense and order of pure chaos.&nbsp; That was when the area lights came on, blinding everyone.<br><br>Then the shooting and killing started.<br><br>It lasted only a few short seconds.&nbsp; All in all it was over in less than fourteen minutes, fourteen minutes to kill and eliminate twenty-seven people.&nbsp; All was going according to his plan.&nbsp; Less than two minutes the air ship touched down, and ramps slammed hard into cracked concrete and asphalt.&nbsp; Boots then crunched down on ground, carrying portable equipment.&nbsp; Behind it was the shadow of the man behind it, moving slowly and surveying about.&nbsp; It did not take him long for the portable HUD inside his helmet to tell him what he needed to know.&nbsp; He pointed with an arm that ended in wicked claw, blades that look like they could cut through muscle and bone like so much meat.&nbsp; <strong><em>"There, the connections are there.&nbsp; Hurry."</em></strong><br><br>The men did as commanded, a few taking up guard, the other working.&nbsp; They connected technology where directed, and in under a half hour, they were finished.&nbsp; It started slowly, feebly, but across what used to be Manhattan, lighting that somehow survived the war started to flicker to life, infrastructure in place that was not destroyed by the Sentinels so they could use it for their own means back in the past.&nbsp; It now served a different purpose now, as the circuits and power cables long dormant under what used to be Stark Tower came to life.&nbsp; Deep down in the substructure of the building, servers and computer still miraculously intact after all of this time thrummed with power and life.<br><br><strong><em>"Operating system on line.<br>Main power restored.&nbsp; &nbsp;<br>Attempting connection, accessing....<br>Connection established, accessing...<br>Time date established.&nbsp; Current date, the sixth of April.&nbsp; The year, two thousand, one hundred and six.&nbsp; Last known operation, the seventeenth of November, the year two thousand and fifty-seven.<br>Downloading historical data...<br>Downloading...<br>Downloading...<br>Founding Avengers members, deceased.<br>Reserve Avengers members, deceased.<br>Triggers for fail safe protocol activated, activating Avengers Next initiative.<br>Searching...<br>Searching...<br>Searching...."</em></strong> <br><br>With that, signal went out from what used to be Stark Tower, a signal that went out to search for parameters and indicators.&nbsp; From what used to be North Port power station, the man smiled underneath his helmet.&nbsp; The boss was correct, and despite having worked with him for the last three years, that the Boss could predict events with such clarity amazed him.&nbsp; &nbsp;The man turned and started to head back to the airship.&nbsp; <strong><em>"Contact.&nbsp; Bravo and Delta teams, establish base camp.&nbsp; Alpha and Echo are with me.&nbsp; Time to raid the piggy bank..."</em></strong><br><br>In the distance, in the ruins of Manhattan, upon what used to be Stark Tower, a shimmer, a flicker every now and then through the shattered "A" on the side of the building.&nbsp; A beacon of hope, or the herald of destruction?

				<div class="floatleft">(http://www.thewrap.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/mockingbird-featured.jpg)</div><strong>Character Name:</strong> Karen Cross<br><strong>Alias:</strong> Daredevil<br><strong>Time/Date:</strong> 0120, 6 Apr 2102<br><strong>Location:</strong> Ruins of New York, Manhattan <br><strong>Tagging:</strong> Anyone<br><strong>Mentioned:</strong> Biforst, Stark Tower<br><strong>NSFW Warning:</strong> None<br><hr><br>Karen did not know the motivation as to why she felt compelled to go on patrol tonight in what she has now labeled the "Daredevil" armor.&nbsp; Perhaps it was another fruitless and frustrating day at SHIELD.&nbsp; Karen would not really label herself as an adrenaline jockey or an action junkie.&nbsp; She knew that for most of law enforcement across the Union would love to have the day that she had were the most dangerous thing encountered was breaking up a group of peaceful protestors that had not filed the proper permits and needed to be dispersed.&nbsp; What they were protesting?&nbsp; Hammer Technologies latest personal computer and all the flaws it had with it.&nbsp; It was something not even important.&nbsp; It was not lack of basic amenities and public utilities for its citizens, no it was a protest about how the latest piece of social technology was a piece of crap (it was, but that was Hammer Tech).&nbsp; Still, when Karen knew there were crimes and worse being committed outside of New Haven, beyond where SHIELD considered its jurisdiction, it was difficult for Karen to feel anything positive about her job, or SHIELD itself.<br><br>The only satisfaction Karen seemed to be getting for herself of late was when she was out and about patrolling the ruins of New York.&nbsp; Karen wanted to believe that she was making a difference out there.&nbsp; At times she tried to tell herself that she was acting much in the same way her namesake did back in the golden age of humanity (that was what Karen called it despite the propaganda of Hammer Tech and other big companies), before the rise of the Sentinels, swinging and running from rooftop to rooftop, correcting the wrongs with his fists and clubs that he could not right as a lawyer by day.&nbsp; Karen often wondered if he had times of critical self reflection as she was doing at this moment, looking out at the ruins of what was one of the world's greatest cities, that for all of her dedication and effort, in the end she amounted no more than a reed in the wind, a pebble in the way of a river, doing nothing much at all to change the river's course at all.&nbsp; She might help a family or four on any given night, but that was all it was, a night of respite.&nbsp; The very next day, it was the same bleak grind that they had to face day in and day out.<br><br>Karen was interrupted from her thoughts by the flickering of light happening all about her.&nbsp; It was like nothing she had ever seen before.&nbsp; Lights and other items long without power suddenly coming to life, some of the items after decades of not being used.&nbsp; It was a damn odd thing that put Karen's hackles on edge.&nbsp; She spoke softly, barely a whisper, letting the sensor she had at her neck feel the vibrations made by her vocal cords and translating those into command that her armors operating system understand and process.&nbsp; To be honest, that was perhaps the most difficult piece of the whole suit, making that interface work so it would not require some manual input on her part.&nbsp; Even in an area were all sound was dampened, the sensor was sensitive to still feel the vibrations happening inside her larynx.&nbsp; A piece if genius if she did say so herself.&nbsp; &nbsp;<strong><em>"Daredevil..."</em></strong>&nbsp; &nbsp;With that word, the enhanced forensic and sensor suite of her armor activated, and Karen looked about once more to see everything happening in the ruins in a new and unique light.<br><br>The range on the entire forensic and sensor package was only a hundred yards, but it was enough to let Karen know that power that once has been long dormant was activated once more.&nbsp; &nbsp;She moved and looked about in awe, and then cursed softly, once more having second thoughts about not putting in an interface to her station back at work and at home where she had access to information and databases.&nbsp; It was a risk for if SHIELD ever started to deploy agents and resources against her, they could use it against her, use it to figure out just who exactly the person calling themselves Daredevil was, but at times like this when she needed information, such as which golden age power station serviced the greater Manhattan area, it would help cut down on the time and getting her to where she needed to be rather than wasting time to get to a spot where she would be able to do her research.<br><br>The next things that Karen noticed as odd and out of place were out of place happened roughly about in the same location several blocks to the north of her current position.&nbsp; First was a flash of color in the night sky, like a lance of it coming from the heavens themselves, and the other was the flickering and coming to life of the old Stark Tower.&nbsp; &nbsp;Say what people wanted of Tony Stark, when he built something he built it to last.&nbsp; Stark Tower still stood despite repeated attacks against the Tower during the Sentinel War.&nbsp; In fact history recorded that the only reason why the tower was abandoned was because the Avengers did not want to be responsible for civilians caught in the crossfire.&nbsp; The Sentinels, while programs to protect humanity, were not so considerate, not when their cold logic factored that the death of the Avengers would far out weight the death of a few humans.&nbsp; The end came when a labor camp full off humans identified as carriers of the "X-Factor" gene was relocated to the base of the Tower.&nbsp; Those humans, forbidden to marry or have children, were acceptable casualties in the eyes of the Sentinels and the government at the time.&nbsp; <br><br>Karen again gave her head a small shake, and whispered softly again.&nbsp; <strong><em>"Murdock, Taskmaster."</em></strong>&nbsp; With those commands, she deactivated the sensor suite, and activated the battle computer that aided her in combat.&nbsp; Now was not the time to think of ancient history.&nbsp; There was something happening near Stark Towers and that could not mean anything good.&nbsp; &nbsp;In fact that location was where one of the biggest weapon suppliers in the ruins was around that location, and the last thing Karen wanted as for them to think that there was anything left at Stark Tower to loot.&nbsp; &nbsp;<br><br>So Karen took out her billyclub, and like the Daredevil of old, the grappling line securing to the ruins of the building beside her.&nbsp; With a running jump, Karen leaped out into the air, the line going taut and basic physics going to work as it swung her out in a wide arc, building momentum.&nbsp; At a touch of her thumb, the grapple retracted and in mid-air, Karen repeated the process, launching the grapple again and swinging away towards another building, eating the distance away towards her goal of Stark Tower.&nbsp; It was time for Daredevil to go to work.<br>

There were so many more interesting places in the world, especially ones with a better night life. Or any, really. He swept through the ruins in his custom airship, seeking... something. So much of the life in the costume, or the parts of it he could remember, anyway, were just instinct, doing things he wasn’t sure of for reasons he didn’t know. Maybe Khonshu was guiding him. Maybe he was just bored. <br><br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<br>A light on the instrument panel started flashing. There was power in the ruined part of the city, and not just some squatter pirating solar to light an apartment or something. He used the controls to put the ship in stealth mode and angled toward the power source. A sardonic grin twisted his face under the cowl. Of course. That damn tower. <br><br>He stopped a few blocks away, surveying the scene. There were a lot of targets on the scene, and there were things in that tower that shouldn’t be messed with. It may be time to take a hand in things. Even here. <br>

So here she was, wandering the streets of New York at nearly half past one in the morning. For any normal - sane - human being they wouldn't even think of going out after dark. But, Camilla wasn't exactly normal. Or was it that Nina wasn't normal? Well, it was all the same as far as she was concerned. There was nothing for her to worry about; she had powers and knew how to take care of herself. Unless Nina decided she wanted control. Then it was time to run like hell and find help.<br><br>As she walked down the street, a flickering light in the distance caught her attention. She honestly didn't know much about...what was it called? Oh yeah. Stark Tower. Living with Nina's parents until she ran away, she didn't get out much and wasn't really allowed to leave her room. Only time she did was when they needed to..."run tests" on her. A thought that made Camilla shudder as she stared down at the scars on her wrists. The brunette didn't consider them her parents, and she was pretty sure Nina didn't either.<br><br>However, those were thoughts for another time. At present, there was another matter to deal with. Camilla was sure there was something going on in the ruins of the tower. She made her way towards the ruined structure, hoping it wouldn't all be for nothing.

Okay, it was a stupid idea. Noah Turgeon, also known as Magus, was searching for a dodo feather - one of the rarest items in the occult since the bird went extinct in 1662. Now standing in the ruins of New York at 2 in the morning, Noah was rethinking his quest.<br><br>Nearby were the ruins of a metaphysical supply store, Enchantments. Noah assumed that most of the items left in the ruins would have been untouched. What was someone going to use a feather for in this lifetime? <br><br>Grasping a pendulum with an amazonite on the end, Noah closed his eyes. He was carefully hid in the shadows so as to not arouse any passerby – as if that would happen. “Find the feather, find the feather, find the feather.” It was real magic that stirred in Noah and the pendulum was really just for show. As the power stirred in his body his mind began to project. It was as though a spirit of himself walked the street. His astral projection moved down an alley and around a corner. <br><br>His mind was not led down the street where Noah thought the destroyed Enchantments store was located. Instead, it continued forward and stopped. The vision in front of him was clear as day. The shining letter “A” was definitely a powerful force summoning him to its presence. <br><br>Noah didn’t just see the “A” but also felt the history as though through the eyes of others. Such pain. Terrible suffering. Darkness. Despair. Noah’s physical body reached for his neck as though being choked by an invisible smoke. His astral form stood motionless. <br><br>In all the negative emotions flooding him, Noah became overwhelmed with something else. Hope. This emotion grew as the light of the “A” strengthened. The shattered letter began to remake itself, healing the cracks and growing in brightness. <br><br>It was a beacon.<br><br>Noah’s astral project dissipated and joined his physical body. Taking a deep breath he pocketed the pendulum and began to make his way to the ruins of Stark Tower. The dodo bird feather would have to wait.<br>

They weren’t going for containment. They were going to start wiping out the people who just happened to have the misfortune to be there. That wasn’t happening. Khonshu protected travelers in the night, and a mass slaughter of innocents was not something he was prepared to allow. There were a lot of them for just him, but he was never really alone. Khonshu guided him, of course, but he had more immediate resources as well. <br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;“Target armed ground forces,” he directed the ship’s automated systems. “Priorities: protect the unarmed.” That should be enough of a parameter for the limited AI to sort out victims and foes. For now, it was time for a more hands-on approach. He moved to the hatch on the underside of the ship, and drew in a deep breath. Someone slightly different breathed it out. The Knight of the Moon was ready. <br><br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;He leapt out of the hatch, spreading his cloak wide to let him glide silently down. Crescent darts in hand, he let himself drop low, quietly, and then it was time. Hurling darts with deadly accuracy, he moved to land feet-first on the nearest gunman and went to work. Above him, the ship positioned itself and started precision firing its weapons, starting on the outer edges of the group for maximum safety for the innocent. <br><br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

The Knight vanished in shadow, moving with both stealth and speed toward the armed group menacing the various people. With a quick survey of the nearest, he threw four crescent darts from each hand, aiming for weapons, hands, and weaknesses in armor. Weapons launched, he followed, leaping on the nearest with a hard kick, attempting to knock the man flat. His intent was to drop this one, land on him to further incapacitate him, and then move to place another foe between himself and the weapons of the rest. His armor and skill would hopefully prove out against these foes. And perhaps the others would back his play. If not, Khonshu would watch over him. This he knew.

Magus now was surrounded by new ruins of New York. As though the City could take much more. There wasn't much left...of anything. Yet somehow here he was in the middle of it with several others trying to protect the vulnerable. Fate's strings entangled them in this mess.<br><br>Glancing around the carnage had not just been to the streets and buildings, but also the people. Noah wasn't a physician, but understood basic first aid. Unfortunately, magic wasn't as helpful in this regard. Spells didn't have a consciousness of their own. He couldn't just fix people without either intricate knowledge of how, or a very pointed spell.<br><br>Instead, Magus did have a hopeful spell that could work. As the glowing blue orb faded from existence, Magus put his hands together and closed his eyes. “Pain subside, healing begin. Pain subside, healing begin. Pain subside, healing begin.” <br><br>A warmth began to take over the wounded. Magus stimulated the autoimmune system to begin to heal the body while simultaneously dulling the central nervous system to remove some of the pain. People's bodies would have to heal on their own, but Magus was able to kick start them.<br><br>Magus looked around, wondering if someone was going to take the lead.<br>

But, this was not normal circumstances. These people needed help, and there was other medical or evacuation hep coming. He'd have to go over the craft very carefully afterwards to check for bugs, trackers, or other mischief. He keyed the controls and the ship landed, side hatch opening. As a matter of course, he routed weapons control to his gauntlet only. There was no sense tempting fate with accidental weapons discharge. Or purposeful one from the wrong person. <br><br>He directed the refugees aboard, helping those that needed it. "In the interest of space, if any of you can fly, you might wish to do so and spare room for the wounded." The Knight surveyed the group. "I am not certain all of them will make it aboard." He checked the sensors until they were close to red-lining. "That is all for the first trip. We can return as needed." He turned to the blonde woman with the impressive armor. "Ma cherie, shall we go?" He bowed and kissed her hand. <br><br>Turning, with a swirl of his armored and multipurpose cloak, he moved through the now crowded space to the controls. A joke from days gone by surfaced in his mind and he keyed the internal speakers. "Please keep your hand inside at all times, and do not try and get out until the ride has come to a complete stop." He tried for the flat American accent, shifting from his usual Gallic one as he took off.

One by one he knelt down beside the wounded and began to fill them with his mystic power. “Pain subside, healing begin. Pain subside, healing begin.

"Where is it you wish to take the wounded?" he asked. "I am not as familiar with what remains of the city as I should be." He checked a few things in the computer. "I believe this...
