Who: Jen Hill & Gunnar Richards What: Woman of Steel sets a trap for Magneto When: Forward dated to Saturday, October 11th 2014 (sunset) Where: Coney Island, NY Warnings: AU!character death I'm on a roll
This place had once been a main tourist attraction, and a kid's ultimate fantasy playground, but that was before the war took over. Tourists didn't come around so much anymore, in fact, most non-reincarnates stayed away from tourist spots and reincarnate-heavy areas entirely, just in an effort to avoid getting in the cross fire. Parents didn't bring their children here as much anymore, and when they did, it was only until the sun set. The streets were never safe, especially at night.
That was when the vigilantes came out.
On this particular Saturday, there were a surprising number of people who seemed to have temporarily dropped their guards. They actually dared to set foot outside their own doors, take their kids on the roller coasters, their high pitched screams of delight echoing along the island's ridge. It was a perfect day, the sun was even out despite the already crisp chill of October. It still seemed like a day where nothing could go wrong. That's when Jen and the Crime Syndicate descended.
The destruction was swift and without mercy. People went running in every direction from the explosions and falling debris. The Coney Island that was once such a treasured and beloved site for people to visit was now a war zone, like everything else. But she wasn't here for them. She could care less what happened to any of the innocents running for their lives, they could run as far as they wanted. A few hours later, there wasn't much left but rubble, but Jen wasn't leaving. The clean-up crews would be here soon. They were just getting started.
