Aura walked into the warehouse, as far as she was concerned it was hers, as she had long ago chased the gang's out. Still the man who stood here, she had encountered once before, the man had dropped a house on her and to say the least, the incident had pissed her off. She had been called to her own turf, to see this human animal peradeing upon her property. Aura's eyes sweeped the warehouse, not that it would help, their were so many places to hide, but she was sure this guy was not alone, their was no way he could be that stupid.

"You" Aura said accusingly, Her Aura around her and focused, she was prepared for an ambush and the man did not disappoint. Three men, Armed with Automatic weapons approached from the far end of the warehouse, each leveled at her, they knew she was short range. As they opened fire, Aura jumped behind some crates as she felt a few of the bullets strike her Aura. In Return Aura flung a pipe bomb across the warehouse, which exploded and Aura smiled as a scream responded to the blast as well as more then a few swear words, but still it did not matter. Aura looke dup and saw the two others were paying attention to their friend, a stupid Mistake.

Aura snuck around, using the crates for cover until she was almost behind the four men, who had recomposed them selfs, her blast had not hurt the man as bad as she hoped, however that mattered little now. Leaping out behind the men, she held her dark blade in a downward slash, the first man, did not even have time to scream, the middle gunmen, barely aimed his rifle, when a pink drill, pierced his chest and plunged deep between his ribs, Aura had missed the vital organs, but she moved the man a bit, so that his friend emptied the clip into him, tossing him to the ground Aura, stabbed the last gun men in the stomach, and a she fell she kicked his gu away from him and began marching on their leader, her eyes furious.

Kyle was not really paying attention to where he was going, which was unfortunate as he'd managed to wander into one of the less reputable parts of the city. The area around him was decrepit, broken windows and graffiti everywhere. The streets were lined with debris and trash and the entire place reeked of tobacco and alcohol.

Kyle was snapped out of his stupor when he heard sounds of gunfire from the warehouse across the road. Against his better instincts he quickly crossed the street and opened the flimsy metal door. As he did so he was left momentarily deafened as something exploded. Now very worried about what was going on, Kyle peered around a nearby crate. What he saw was shocking. One woman, a mutant judging by her glowing blades quickly and efficiently slaughtered three gunmen and turned on the unarmed man who appeared to be the one that had hired the newly deceased.

"Oi! What the hell are you doing!?" He yelled, only belatedly realising he'd just drawn the attention of someone who'd killed three armed men without hesitation.

She missed her Next strike, her blow instead striking a wooden box and tearing the corner off of it. The man stumbled and fell, however a voice rang out that caused Aura's aim to be errant. She looked up to spy a new man in the warehouse, this one however lacked the weapon of the other three, or any weapon she could see. Forming a blade on her foot she kicked at the pathetic human before her, her blade cutting through the strong tendons in the back of his right foot, he would not be bale to run.

"Killing animals.......Are you Mutant?" she asked casually, as if nothing had just happoned around her. Despite her act no blood clung to her, and no wound marked her skin. Her eyes lost some of the malice as she considered the new man who had entered. She could not tell if he was a mutant or not from the looks of him. She made no advance on the man instead she awaited his all importent answer, the answer that would deterimine his fate.

She looked down as the wounded man tried to get away clearly terrafied. The Wound even if he got away she figured would teach him not to drop a house on her again, she hoped he was that smart anyway, he was after all only human.

The woman swung her blade at the made just as she heard Kyle's shout and her swing missed her target. Turning to face Kyle she almost negligently kicked out with one foot, severing the cowering man's tendons and removing his ability to escape.

>> "Killing animals..." Indeed, her response seemed quite apt, she had the same care for the death around her a butcher has for his cows. >> "Are you mutant?" Kyle nodded slowly. So that's what this was about, some sort of hate crime. But, who was the victim? The mutant or the humans?

"Why are you doing this? What have these people done to you?" Kyle asked, over the wailing of the injured man.

"Well one, theses particular insects dropped a house on me, i take that rather personally mind you, and now they bring gun's to my ware house, mere animals should know their place" she said casually, as the drill in her hand changed into that of an Axe, and her foot blade dissolved all together. The young teenager flexed her arm as she continued to consider this mutant. "My name is Aura, and yours?" she asked more intrested in him then her still crawling pray.

"I to as is obvious am of our kind" she said raiseing her hand almost automatically and changing her Aura weapon, from sword, to axe, to drill, to an ice cream scoop. Letting it settle back to the Axe she had changed it to before. "I am curious as to your power, my friend" she said walking closer to him, kicking the wounded man in the head as he tried to grab her foot. The kick was almost dainty, like a girl to near a bug.

"They... Dropped a house on you? Why on earth would someone drop a house on you?"

>>"My name is Aura, and yours?" Seeing the teen turn her blade into a variety of dangerous weapons (and an ice cream scoop that seemed more deadly than it should) and eventually settling on an axe Kyle gulped before responding.

"I'm Kyle." He replied. Aura kicked the man she'd injured as she asked him what his power was. Rather than saying anything Kyle pushed himself into the air a little. Hovering an inch or so above the ground. He didn't think it was safe to tell someone who'd just murdered people everything he could do.

Feeling surprisingly intimidated by the teen Kyle becan looking around. He saw the scorch mark from the explosion he'd heard, and saw some bullets on the ground. Since they were squashed he assumed they'd been fired and hit something. Probably Aura's... aura. That's it! She turns her aura into those weapons, and probably used it to stop herself being shot. But then, if this did dissolve into a fight, what would he be able to do to her that bullets couldn't?

"Well he aired, an anti-mutant add, so me and a freind set out to persuade him to change his mind, however it was all a trap, when we proved to much for the gang members they blew the house supports and left us for dead" she explained lifting herself a bit with her hands to sit on a taller crate. Happened once before as well, but that was different, and someone else" she said tilting her head a bit.

"Helloe, Kyle, it is nice to meet you, and your power is beautiful as well, Can you fly?" she asked more surious about his power then the semi awake man who was no longer trying to crawl. "I am sorry for the questions, they may seem rude but i am curious with every mutant i meet, as we are so diverse" she said which was more that partly true, of course aura normally did not m,mention she liked to see mutant powers to learn to defend against them as well.

"He hired cheap help, they had poor aim" she said looking back at the bodies, dissopointment was clear in her voice. she enjoyed strong opponents, these she felt were likely littile more then hired gang members to stupid to say no, or they had never heard of Aura.

So the injured man had aired an anti mutant ad and used himself as bait to catch any mutants who'd been upset by it. Idiot. But still, it seemed this Aura person had probably been a bit violent in her attempts to 'persuade' him. Though blowing the house supports seemed a bit much to Kyle.

>>"Can you fly?" It seemed that Aura was fishing for information. Considering she still had her axe Kyle thought this was a very bad sign.

"I can hover." He said, still thinking it best not to reveal his full abilities. He looked around again, this time for something that could help if it came down to a fight. There were the thugs guns, but it already seemed that they had no affect on her, and Kyle had no gun training anyway. There were some small crates nearby that he could probably use, and quite a few large crates he could hide behind.

Feeling intimidated by her almost disappointed opinion of armed men Kyle asked, "These aren't the first people you've killed, are they? You would have killed that man just for showing and anti-mutant ad, wouldn't you?"

"No they are not, i hunt gang members most night's to keep my combat skill's sharp, if you don't practice you lose them, you know" she said casually looking back at the human, she finally let the Aura Axe melt into her overall Aura which thinned as well, making her look highlighted. "I would have, and i likely will still kill him. People like him must be eliminated are they will hurt some poor mutant" she said sounding quite sure of her words. "People like him are why i had to rescue a young frog mutant awhile back from being murdered" she said a bit sadly.

"When my powers emerged i was in a fist fight with another girl, however, my powers came to and i broke her spine in to, so the humans caged me and my parents abandoned me. It wa sonly after i was saved though that i brought to the woods, and killing became......routine, of Human's of course, after all killing a mutant would be murder" she said with a smile. "Sadly those freind's dieed, automatic weapons and mortar fire, can hurt" she went on.

"but i'm just more interested in you right now. Mutants are beautiful creatures and the future masters of this planet. Plus their are so many different mutant's, ones who control plants, can be intangible or increase their strength and so much more. Everyone seems to ahve a different gift and i like to see all i can of them" she said honestly. "So how do you feel about the human's?" she asked curiously, hoping he felt much like her but knowing as was in most cases he would not be, even if he hated them.

Listening to Aura speak gave Kyle chills. She truly believed that it was only murder if you killed a mutant. She really thought the only way to prevent anti-mutant crimes was to kill the humans.

"That's.... That's sick.... Sure, some people will never change their views, but they don't all deserve to die! Have you ever heard the saying 'mutants are people too'? That works in reverse. Humans and mutants are both people. And if you go around killing them you just make it worse. Because of mutants like you, who see humans as lesser biengs, who kill indiscriminately... It's mutants like you that make humans fear us. That make them hate us."

Kyle took a deep breath and flexed his fingers. He was sure this wasn't going to end well. He prepared himself, if she attacked, he'd be able to block her, maybe even stop her by blasting a nearby crate at her.

"If you're just going to keep killing, keep perpetuating the violence and insighting hatred towards mutants.... I can't let you. I won't let you do that."

"My friend, the humans will hate us no matter what we do, they will hate us because there instincts tell them we will replace them. We are their evolutionary next step, and when a species evolves the previous one, always fades away. That alone generates fear, as any dieing animal fear it's end, it's death" she said as if it should be obvious to him. She clearly deeply believed what she was saying. "The moment the mutant race was born onto this earth, Humans stopped being the dominent species of the planet, and became just another animal, like deer." she said simply.

Hearing a groan from the man, she had kicked, she pulled out a pistol and shot at the man, her shot, went wide of her intended target and struck the man in the arm, just above his elbow, already a pool of blood forming around him, She would have fired again but the gun told her it was out of bullets, so she chucked it at him, her throw was much better then her aim with the weapon and the gun hit him rather hard in his back.

"My killing is not indiscriminate, i kill the low lifes and those who raise a hand against our kind. I defend Mutant children yet to be born and those who even now suffer from the hand of the human's. Plus i use the material i take anyway, like a good hunter, observe" Aura Said standing up and walking to the back of the building, she hit a switch and the lights began to come on, illuminateing what wa sonce hidden in the darkness.

In the middle of the room, was a table, a dead man, laid on it, it was clear Aura had done a great amount of surgical work upon the body, Next to that were several dozen perfectly clean white bones stacked like firewood. To either side of the door Kyle had come through, were two skulls, each had a lamp inside so the red lights, shone out of their mouths and eye socket's. Not far From Kyle, was a what looked like a water fountain, made a polished white bone, and instead of water, Aura had designed it to use blood.

"The humans will fall, weather do anything about it or not, the only question my friend is, do we let them kill our children and our friends as we wait, Do we let them run tests and torture us? i say no, we strike first and show them who truly own's this world" She said spreading ehr Arm's out to her sides, theatrically. "It really is to bad they taste so bad though, their heart is all right but the rest....i would rather eat Eagle" she said shaking her head with a giggle on her lips.

Aura spoke again of how humans treated mutants. Of how they feared them and then... Then she made herself out to be some kind of paragon, a hero of mutant kind, fighting for those not yet born.

"Killing humans now won't make it safer for mutants in the future. They'll be raised in a society that fears them that hates them and..." Kyle trailed off. Aura had turned on the lights, and what he saw sickened him. Corpses and bones used as decorations and a macabre fountain pouring blood over a decapitated body. Even the lights were covered with skulls, as if they were simple lamp-shades. The almost casual use of human body parts made Kyle feel sick.

Given even what little he knew of anti-mutant crimes and what horrors had been commited, Kyle could sympathise with Aura's desire to strike first, but this... This evil place... This use of human bodies as decoration and furniture was not the way to go about protecting mutant-kind.

"You're insane. You're insane and... I can't let you keep doing this. You have to stop!" With a flick of his wrist Kyle pulled one of the smaller crates towards him and then blasted it at Aura. She was insane, and there was no way he'd let her get away with the things she was doing. Kyle wanted to go for help, to call the police or something, but he was afraid that if he left to get help Aura would get away. He couldn't allow that to happen.

"Maybe that true, but their won't be enough humans for any of that to matter. Human's will hate us simply becuse we can do things better then them, WHy hire twelve men to knock down a building when a single mutant can do it, even at twice the cost of one worker. That alone spreads fear and hate among them, that many will use to kill our people" she explained jumping down to the floor, and walking up to the fountain Aura took a drink from it and licked her lips.

"Insane no.....Just a weapon determined to protect my people" She countered looking at the Human lover now. She made no move to attack, as she was willing to let the mutant go, but it seemed he had other plans. It seemed he could do more then make himself float, she smiled, this was going to be FUn, Quickly expanding her Aura, she formed Hammers on both Arm's and swung at the box, the weakened, wood shatterd upon her swing, but she failed to stop it all, and some of the box pelted her Aura, but the contents flew high into the air, landing all over the place, all of them were shiny Police badges and peoples picture ID's, trophy's of war. "very nice, very nice, but you'l need to do better" she said as her Aura flowed and became more angles to better deflect the boxes.

Aura laughed happily "Oh your fun, you might be misguided, but if you want to dance, i would be more then happy to be your partner" she said. She made no move for any of the weapon's on the ground. Instead Aura charged forward, raseing her arm, which reformed from hammer, to Sword. She swung at Kyle when she was close enough, Her attack aimed at his shoulder. She did not want to kill him, only play with him a bit. The Happynes sin her eyes betrayed the seriousness sof the situation.

Aura... No, the monster before him easily shattered the crate he'd launched at her with an aura made hammer. >>"...if you want to dance, i would be more then happy to be your partner." She said, as if he hadn't just flung a crate at her.

"Thanks but no thanks. I prefer my dance partners to be sane." Kyle said. "As it is, you hate the humans for fearing us yet are perfectly willing to perpetuate that fear, to spread terror and hate amongst the humans."

As he spoke the teen shifted her hammer into a blade and rushed at him. Kyle started to move away from her but she was fast. She reached him quickly and slashed at his shoulder. She was grinning insanely and seemed thrilled at the idea of a fight. Thinking quickly his left hand rose to point at her and he sent a repulsion blast at her. As he did a thought flickered across his mind, her aura could stop bullets, surely it could stop his repulsion ability.

As Aura came down with her blade, she was suddenly forced back almost five feet and she stopped then mainly because she grabbed into a nearby box, her hammer, converting to a hooked blade, though the Box Moved, Aura looked at her opponent with an approving nod. "So you can repel me as well, interesting.....This is why i prefer fighting mutant's to humans though. Humans die so easily, but a mutant is a challenge!" she said "And your already in the dance, after all it was your lead" she said waving her hand to the shattered box.

"Good reflexes to" She said as she unhooked her belt, which held her pipe bombs as well as another Pistol, and dropped it on the woundede man's back. "Hold these" she said although she was pretty sure the man was a bit far from hearing anything she said, Next she took off her sword, and set tit on the wood. Only when she was done did she look back at her opponent. "TO stop me, my freind, you will have to kill me, even if you call the police, how long do you think it will be before that prison is leveled?" she said with a smile, she knew, she ahd helped level one.

This Time Aura formed a drill unsure if what he repelled could be affected by different shapes and objects, Once again she ran in, this time however, she threw a punch Aimed at his upper chest She was Hoping his blast would not be able to repel a drill so easily, she also wonderd how he would be able to attack her, if this was all he could do, a battile of atrician she was sure she could win, she wa suse to extended combat.
