"That's correct," Said Lieutenant Parkes, "However, our forensic specialist over there is to report to me, and leave the decision of whether to share information to me and my superiors, so please refrain from questioning her."

I stood up, my eyes passing right over where James was standing, although I didn't see him. The blood wasn't the victims, but there was something 'off' about it, though I wasn't sure what it was. Then something caught my eye, stuck to the wall with blood was a single strand of black hair, almost invisible against it. I plucked it off, and caught a scent from it. It was faint, almost non-existant against the blood, but it was definitely there.
"Lieutenant," I said, "I have something."

Standing back from her, James took a look around.....then he found something, taped behind a dumpster. It was a note, by the looks of it. Gestalt, think you can reach that? Don't want to move this thing and give us away.

Of course. Place your right hand on the wall, we will do the rest.

Doing so, James couldn't see, but feel, as dozens of tendrils, formed from nanites, reached out, thin as strands of hair. They crawled over the wall and grasped the note, dragging it back to his hand, which he took off the wall to read the note.

Quote :
Please put my work in a gallery. Art like this, needs to be seen by the world.

--Jack

His name is Jack? Seriously? What kind of name is that? Then James realized something.....he was invisible, but holding the note which was not......and everyone could see. Like the detective by the body, who suddenly blanched and said "The fuck?"

The Lieutenant froze on his way over to me, seeing what the detective had seen. He raised his weapon, a UMP .45, and the other two Black Fox Operators did the same. I looked over at it myself, and focusing on it now, I could make out a very slight disturbance in the air, almost like incredibly faint heatwaves. I doubted that anyone else could see it, so I didn't say anything because of the police officers.

James turned around, quicker than he meant to and it caused a scuffle as he feet dragged on the ground. "Oh.....uh.....hi," he said slowly as one of the guards raised an SMG at him. The detectives drew their own guns, while every other officer in the alley did the same. "Whoa whoa whoa!" James said, decloaking and revealing himself, hands up in an offer of no aggression. "Not here to hurt anyone.....and I sure as shit didn't kill anyone."

"You're disrupting a crime scene," one of the detectives barked. "Not really disrupting.....I didn't disturb anything, no traces.....and I found some evidence for you." He offered the note.

I walked over to him, taking the note out of his hand, and standing that close to him, I could smell him. I ignored it though, and looked at the note, reading it. I offered it to the Lieutenant, who then passed it on to the police, having deemed it okay for them to read. I looked over the armoured figure once more and turned around, I could just about see a crowd forming, and they were all trying to get a look in. They'd be disgusted, but they wanted to see it. It made no sense.

"I can find 'Jack', if I'm allowed to leave, Lieutenant." I said. His answer was a look of suspicion, though he called it in anyway, and with a look of shock, he informed me that it was allowed.

I took off the coat and gloves, handing them to the Lieutenant. Undearneath them I was wearing a white shirt and a black jacket.

I looked at James, where I assumed his eyes were. "You should go," I said, "Before someone panicks and shoots."

"That wouldn't really do much," James calmly said. "I overheard you, detective..." he looked at the guys badge, reading the name. "Detective Bishop. You said this guy killed three girls before?" Bishop glared and said "That's not up for discussion. And there's a warrant for your arrest. So guess what you're under buddy."

"Oh wow, look at the time," James said hurriedly. "Well this was fun but I should probably go, bye!" He spun, swinging his arms as he did and shot a pair of cables out that latched on the edge of the roof, pulling himself up before Bishop could get the cuffs out,

"I'm going too," I told Lieutenant Parkes as I walked away from the body, "I want to find the person that did this." Stepping out of the alley, I was bombarded with questions from the news reporters, but I ignored them. I wasn't even allowed to say anything. I also had no idea where to start looking for the culprit; all I had was their scent.

No doubt about it, that was Kristen. He had to wonder though, if she recognized him by smell or not. But he couldn't afford to think on her, and instead focused on the killer. Gestalt, can you access the police records? See if there's anything on this Jack guy?

One moment, slipping through firewalls. They call him, Jack the Ripper, likening them to the original killer from London in the United Kingdom. Not counting today, he has killed three other women of varying ages, and left their bodies in places that, while not open, would be public and accessible. Psych report proclaims him to be narcissistic, wants recognition for his work. Has demanded his work be put in galleries, and refused of course. Injects the limbs and torso with......odd. A fast acting polymer that becomes rigid when cooled. Beyond that, no suspect list.

Damn....check the cameras located near each drop off area. There's bound to be something we can use.

I walked down the street, no idea where to start looking for the killer, though from what I'd been told, they were targeting Black Fox. It had to be more than a random string of killings. A thought struck me though; if they were an 'artist' as the note claimed, then surely they'd want to see people's opinion on their work. I stopped, trying to go through all of the faces that had been at the entrance to the alley.
No, I'd notice... I thought, No, I wouldn't. The city messes with smells. I suddenly felt something... was it fear? I wasn't sure, but it did make me feel cold knowing how large the blind spot in my power was, that unless the smell was incredibly distinct, like James', I'd miss it.

Affirmative. This will take some time.

What about the tire tracks? Any read on them?

With no police reports we can only make estimated guesses. That said, judging by their pattern, and the vehicular requirements of moving a body of such....condition, we estimate you are looking for a van. Four wheeled, though new tires judging by the residue.

Wait, residue? How much were you scanning?

A great deal, though not enough. New wheels though unclear where from. No exhaust in the air, so possibly electric.

Well that wasn't surprising really. Since Nexus created the fusion generators, they also managed to create a new generation of vehicles running on advanced batteries. They could last for hours in use before needing to be recharged. So a killer thinking they're an artist who drives a battery powered van......okay then.

My head was spinning from trying to work out how I was going to find the killer, and I still had no idea. James might have an idea, if I could find him. I thought I could, I had his scent. So I turned heel and headed the other way, following the single smell amidst the flurry of the others.

"Bloody hell he took out 10" one officer said looking confused.

"Alright, I'm going to make a call, this is one of those vigilantes" the second said. Alright, at least it isn't murderer. hahaha, funny. wasn't meant to be, Alright lets move to the car check their radio for any other things. alright you ready its only a few steps. Its still going to hurt. and with that Marcus began to move looking like a shadow that was moving with an object he made it to the car and listened in. 

"So This guy, the darkness has taken down ten men, all alive and cuffed by this substance, right send a van to pick these guys up ad we will go to the Murder scene." Murder scene?  Lets check it out.

Gestalt came back with some results. While it was never seen dropping the bodies off.....there was a green van, spotted in nearly every camera located within a block of the drop zone of the body. Alright, that's a start. Think you can track it?

We will try, but we must scan through nearly thirty days worth of data accumulated from hundreds of different cameras. Again, this will take time.

As a van fitted for prisoner transport arrived Marcus climbed aboard the police car as his shadow form and clung on. Alright how long do you think we have until I ran out of energy. well it seems that this car is going to have a man come back piece by piece. Oh, you suck. As the car made its way Marcus could feel the sunlight on him, the light was burning his shadow form and in turn was burning him. He couldn't take it and started to return back to his human form, hoping the officers didn't notice a dent in their roof he held on until he started to see a young girl walking there way. Oh, crap theirs a young girl who can see us. you have your mask on. Yea but the last kids who saw me almost fainted. I think shes going to find it funny that we are sitting on a police car. haha, yea, wait I think I know her. I saw her leaving the school from earlier. "John theirs a large dent in our car." 

Oh shit.

While James waited, he decided to grab a drink during the wait, so he found a different alley to change in. After that, he headed for a convenience store around the block, just a bit closer to the crime scene, intending to grab a soda.

"OH COME ON!" I scream. I chuck the controller across the room. Getting killed by your own team while on a 29 kill-streak is never fun. Ever. I walk over and pick up the controller, and sit back down.
"Haha tked the hacker," one of them says.
"YOU THINK IT'S FUNNY?" I scream into the mic. Whatever. I turn the game off, along with the TV, and head for the door. "Think I'm hacking..." I mumble

-4 Year Earlier

"Yeah come on. You got this. YEAH!" I scream, jumping out of my seat. I'm at the beautiful Yankee Stadium, where they're playing one of their rivals. I'm a lifelong Yankees fan, but my brother always loved their rival, the Mets.
"Oh shut up, doesn't make you guys any better. It's only cause of a bad call, and you know it," my brother says.
It's the bottom of the 13th inning, and the Yankees just moved a runner up to third, with only one out.
"Betcha five bucks their going with the squeeze now," I say, turning to my brother. I'm still standing.
"Of course they are, it's their worst hitter. Game's over."
"They don't go with it much."
First pitch, swung on and fowled straight toward the guys a few rows back. I leap, snatching it with my bare hand. The crowd around me cheers, and I give my brother a high-five.
Next pitch, and they're going with the squeeze play. The run scores easily.
"Told you," I say to my brother before jumping around and cheering.

"No if I wanted to do that it would be happening in my apartment so I could have you move a couch for several hours before making you put it down where it you first put it." Klara smiled slightly before yawning slightly. "I think it might be time for me to head back and get some sleep have fun in your clun house."

I step outside my apartment, met with the usual few bums around the barrel of fire. The sun is almost down now. The street is quiet, not a car in sight.
"Hey, you guys," I say to the bums.
"What?" they ask.
"Go down to the store and grab me a 12 pack of mountain dew. Each of you gets 100 bucks when you get back," I say, holding out 20 bucks to pay for the soda. One of them grabs it, and they hurry down the street. As soon as they are out of sight, I drop 300 dollars near their barrel, and put a small rock on top to keep the bills from flying away.
"Thanks," I say, running toward the building across the street.

-4 Years Earlier

"You gotta admit, it was a good game, even though you guys did lose," I say as we walk out of the stadium.
"Yeah I guess. 'Cept for that call. You can't say that was a good call."
"Of course it was good, he was safe by a mile!"
The cars are all stopped, allowing us to cross at the crosswalk. There are more people behind us, also crossing the road. Suddenly there are sirens. A large black van coming from the left.
It all happens so fast. Everything goes black.
I wake up, pinned between the black van and another car. My brother is nowhere to be seen. Most of the doors are the van are open, and nobody is still inside. Then I realize I can't see out of my left eye. I try to move my hand up there to feel my head, but it won't move. I try again. A pain shoots through my whole body, causing me to scream.
"Don't move," somebody yells. The paramedics.

My left foot slams into the wall, and my right foot's jet activates, sending me up a little bit. I grab onto a window sill, and pull myself up onto it. I jump up some more, using the jet packs to get me to the next window sill, then to the roof. I stay up there for a little while, enjoying the view. After a while, I hear shouting from behind me, down by the street.
"Hey, that's our money!"
"Back off, we found it." I move to the edge to watch them. There are five thugs there, most of them now pulling out their guns.
"Hey! Don't shoot!"
"Empty your pockets!"
"No, that's my-"
"Empty your pockets," the thug says, putting a pistol to the guy's head.
My rifle pops out of my left arm, along with the sight popping out in front of my left eye.

-4 years earlier

I wake up again. A bad dream? No, I'm in a hospital now. I can't feel most of my body. My left eye is still black.
"Hey!" I yell.
Nobody comes. Not even a sound. "Where's my brother?" I scream even louder.
Somebody comes into the room. "Quiet down, you're waking-"
"Where's my brother?"
"I'm sorry we... He didn't make it."
"Can I see him?" I say slowly, a few tears coming out of my eyes.
"They took his body away already. We'll notify you when the funeral is, but we need to get you better first."
"What drugs did you give me? Why can't I feel anything?"
"Most of both of your legs, and your entire left arm is disabled, along with your left eye."

Compared to how difficult it should've been to find James in the city, it was actually quite easy. I'd managed to track him down to a shop where he was buying something.
"Hello, James," I said to him as I walked into the shop. I glanced at the shopkeeper, then back to James, "Can I talk to you?" I asked him.

James flinched so hard he nearly got air-time as Kristen snuck up on him at the register, in the process of buying a coke. "Kristen! Geez.....wear a bell girl." Her sneaking up on him wasn't the only thing that had James worried. After all.....she was at the crime scene. What if she tracked him down? "Uh....sure, just let me pay for this.

"What was that earlier?" I asked him as we walked out.

As the police car started to slow down Marcus Jumped off and made a run for it, going though the closest alley way he continued to run before making it to a street and removed his mask before making a short jog to about a block away before coming to a stop near what looked like a convenience store, Do we have any money. you stole some from that last batch of criminals. Oh yea, need to drink and eat. he jogged towards the store which wasn't a big line just two kids, he grabbed a soda while the girl made her friend freak out and decided to wait behide but quickly moved up as they left. "Have a good day guys."

He started to get anxious, looking around in a nervous manner as he said "Why don't you tell me where you think you saw me Kristen."

"At the crime scene." I said without pausing. "I know it was you." She added, hoping that it would dispell any chance of him salvaging his story.

Since the street was mostly vacant and there wasn't much risk, James sighed head hung low a bit and said "Guess I can't beat your sense of smell then eh? Yeah, that was me. I'd ask what you were doing there as well.....but ladies first, you get first stab at me."

"What were you doing there?" I asked him, "And how were you invisible?"

"I was there because I thought I could help. And as for the how.....we're gonna need a private place to talk," James said, and he led them across the street to an empty alley. He heard a passing pedestrian snigger at the sight, two teens going into an alley alone. He ignored them, finding a decent spot out of view.

"Okay.....just, try to keep your voice down," he said, and suddenly he changed. The nanites seeped out of his skin, his prosthetics changing into solid nanites while the rest poured out over his skin to form the armor. He stood before Kristen, donned in the nano-epidermis, and waited for her response.

I blinked, examining the suit James was now wearing.
"What is it?" I asked him, looking him up and down as I tried to work out what exactly the armour was.

"Nanomachines," James said, his voice altered and different......so he had Gestalt disable it, so he could talk normally. "Advanced, self replicating alien machines that are bonded to me. Cost me an arm and a leg....plus an eye, and some organs."

I had no idea what half of what James told me meant, but I didn't ask any more questions.
"So you can turn invisible?" I said, before I switched the question, "What can you do?"

"Invisibility, enhanced strength and speed. I get to see several different spectrums, form weapons from the nanites on my body. Faster healing though most of that is kinda deceptive since the nanites just replicate my tissue with themselves, so I won't ever be a hundred percent whole. Bullet proof.....or resistant anyway. And the AI plugged itself into the global grid, Internet and such. Plus power supplies and digital networks, he's actually going through camera data to find the killers van."

"So you think you can find him?" I asked, sounding eager. I could feel a slight surge of adrenaline as I thought about finding them; I was excited.

"Maybe," James said. "All I've got so far is that they drive a green van. Or at least, that a green van has been in the vicinity of every crime scene, at the time the bodies were found. Gestalt's trying to find them, but that's gonna take time. Now, what about you Kristen?" he asked. "I saw you back there as well. You licked the blood, what the hell?"

I paused, I wasn't sure what I could say.
"I needed to find out if it was the victim's blood," I said, "And it wasn't."

"And you can just tell from taste?" James asked. "Kristen.....you threw up from eating an apple earlier today, you've got armed guards around you and show up at crime scenes to lick blood and find killers. Who....lor what are you?"

"I work for Black Fox," I said, and while it wasn't the whole of the truth, it was still true. I just hoped that it would work.

"Black Fox? The PMC group? Okay but, first what do they have to do with all this, and second, that doesn't explain how you can tell who someone is from their blood. Or their scent," James said calmly....even though he was getting a bit nervous. "Kristen please....you asked if we were friends and I said yes. So be honest with me, like I'm being honest with you now."

I sighed, there was no way to avoid answering his questions.
"Okay," I said, "The victims have mostly been Black Fox employees, so no they've taken the investigation into their own hands," I paused, I wasn't sure how I could explain myself to him, "I'm... special," I said, using the words that I'd been told myself, "Black Fox made me. I have better senses and I'm faster and stronger than a human."

"Made you?" James blurted out, though he quickly blushed a bit beneath the mask. "Sorry I.....it's just, that's a violation of the Mosaic Accords," he told her. The Mosaic Accords were a set of international laws forbidding or restricting genetic experimentation in humans. Cloning whole people was banned, creating new species was banned.....and altering the human genome was banned. She was a living violation of those accords then. He changed back to his usual form, and said "Sorry for blurting it out Kristen. It's just.....that kinda puts you in danger."

"The Mosaic Accords...?" I asked, having never heard of it before, "Why does that put me in danger?"

"Kristen the accords are.....well, laws established around the world, forbidding and making illegal any genetic experimentation with the human genome, to create anything that isn't.....natural, for humans. If people found out.......Kristen they would put you down like a sick dog. Do you understand what I'm saying?"

"No," I said, "Why would they punish me for something that isn't my fault?"

"Because to them, you wouldn't be a person. Black fox would be punished, and all the stuff they went through to make you: any data, and test subjects, all of it would be destroyed as a result...including you. Because you'd just be property, and not alive." He held up his hands then and said "I don't see it or agree with it. You're alive, definitely. But I'm one kid against a world government, my opinion won't mean much. This isn't some Disney film where the kid gets to make a passionate speech. It's the real world."
