As we got closer into town, we took a bus that I knew stopped near the library. We got into the bus and grabbed seats next to each other, "Hey, Alec, what do you think the ratings for Sans will be?"
"Hmm, from my point of view, or theirs?" I tapped my chin.
"From theirs."
"Well, from what I've shown them, I'd say that they'd rate Sans a High Mover, teleporter probably, maybe a Striker. But knowing how convoluted the PRT is, they might do something different."
"Hmm, how about yours?" she asked.
"Ah, Probably a high shaker, medium mover, a high blaster, changer and probably a striker. But that's just from what I know about them, it could change the more I find out." I replied. I looked out the window, we were getting close to the library, now.
The bus slowed to a stop, "This is our stop." I said. Taylor nodded and we got off. "The library is around the corner, but first." I grabbed Taylor's hand, dragging her into an alleyway.
"Huh? What? Alec, what are you doing?" Taylor asked, looking a bit frightened.
"There we go, an easier way to see." I said.
Taylor fell to her hands and knees on the roof, "Please warn me before you do that again."
"I will, I will. I just wanted to see how you would react to shortcuts. Apparently badly." I noted.
I helped Taylor to her feet, she stumbled a bit, but otherwise was fine. She looked out across town, "Woah." Her eyes widened.
"Yeah, beautiful, ain't it." The sky was a beautiful shade of blue, clouds in the air, and the sky slowly sinking into other colors. If you looked farther, you could see the bay, the sky reflecting off of it. The Rig glowed blue in the dying light of the sun.
"This, this is why you go out for walks near sunset?" Taylor asked breathlessly.
"Yes. Yes, it is." I wrapped my arm around her shoulders, "Now, c'mon before the library closes." And took a shortcut down to the alleyway we first walked into.
Taylor almost fell, but I caught her as my arm was still around her shoulders. We walked back into the masses of people and made our way to the library. When we walked in, a library assistant was nearby, "Hello and welcome to Brockton Bay Central Library- oh! Hey, Alec!"
"Heya, Richie, still working here?" I asked.
"Never left. Plus, I like this place, it's quiet." Richie, one of the few friends I have around Brockton, said. Richie was wearing the typical Librarian outfit, which consisted of a brown polo, with the logo of the library on the left breast, and dress pants. Richie's hair was a flaming orange, contrasting to his ice-blue eyes.
"Compared to the craziness of the Parahumans outside, yeah."
Taylor huffed, "If you two are done, me and Alec have work to do."
"Huh? Oh, hey Taylor! Didn't see ya there." Richie said, feigning surprise.
Taylor glared at him.
"Give it up, mate, you're not fooling anyone." I said, slightly amused at his antics.
Richie sighed heavily, "Well, guess I better get back to work. Books don't shelve themselves, sadly enough. The computers are still up top if you need them."
"Thanks!" I said, Taylor already dragging me away.
"No problem!" he replied.
We made it to the back room where they kept the computers. I grabbed an open one and pulled up the PHO Forums. I logged into my account and searched hit the search bar, I typed in 'Sans' and hit enter. There were several hits, 'New Cape 'Sans the Skeleton' has appeared!', 'Mysterious New Cape: Sans!', and, 'Who is this new Cape, Sans?' were some of them. I scrolled down until I found one labelled, 'PRT 's Rating for the new Cape, Sans?' and clicked on it.

There's a new cape out there, guys, name is 'Sans the Skeleton'. He apparently got introduced into the world last night and knows Armsmaster. I was there when he fought Stormtiger and I have a video here and pictures here.
What I want to know is what his Power Ratings are, as from what I saw, he's pretty OP.

Just looked at the footage and
Holy shit.
Did you see that? He's fast. He's so Fucking Fast.
And he's a skeleton. He can summon giant skulls. He can summon bones.
What even is this guy?!

Did, did that just happen? AllSeeingEye just used one word?
This. This is strange.

I repeat: Shit.
Sans' attack, he didn't miss like the others say, he planned to miss. If Sans wanted to, he could've killed them all.
In one hit.
We aren't dealing with some sort of new Cape, no, we're dealing with something bigger.
And I repeat again, Shit.

They just updated the Wiki page, posting ratings here for those who can't be bothered to check:
Mover: 5
Striker: 2
Shaker: 1
Those are the official ratings for now, they may be changed later once we know more about him.

What's with the Shaker rating? I didn't see anything to do warrant that.

If you had the sound off, then you wouldn't hear it. Sans manipulated air to make it sound like a song, and he casually switched through different songs.

Okay, played it again with sound on, and hear it now.

It was a few weeks ago, but I remember the police trying to take down some blue bones that were blocking an alleyway near where I live. They had to bring in Clockblocker, but that didn't work either!
I think that Sans made the blue bones in the alleyway, but I don't know for sure.

Yeah, had to be pulled out of class then, terribly confused. I tried to time-freeze things and throw those at it, but then, as it remained stationary in air, they remembered it was frozen in time. hilarious, though.
The police had already tried cutting them down, but after about an hour or two, then finally lowered and we got in there. It was pretty weird.

Darn dude, that's just weird.
I pulled my eyes away from the screen, the rest was just speculation. I looked at Taylor, "Mover five, Striker two, and Shaker one. That's. . .kinda expected shown from what I showed them."
". . .That's somehow underselling your powers."
"Well, I didn't show them all of it, but from what they saw, then yeah they made the best assumptions that they could."
Taylor frowned, "What about the video, let's take a look." She grabbed the mouse and scrolled up and clicked on the link to the video.
In all, the video was from the time I showed up and until I left. So a few minutes in all. The video itself was a bit shaky and obviously filmed from a window.
Taylor slumped into the seat that she pulled up, "I have to agree with the AllSeeingEye's sentiments, Shit. You are waaaay too overpowered."
"Blame Sans, it's not my fault that I got overpowered powers." I muttered, "Alright, are you done trying to comprehend it? Because we need to get going if I want to show you the sights."
Taylor shook herself and agreed. I logged out of PHO and out of the computer and we left the Library. I always liked getting to the Library near closing hours, there were fewer people there. I took a right and we ran through the streets. As it was near dark, there were very few people out.
It was a few minutes of running later when we arrived at one of the places I promised to show Taylor, "Alright, we're coming up on one of the few hideouts that I have found around here."
I heard two whooshes and a slightly silent skidding sound. There was a hushed voice saying something. I looked at Taylor and winked. "Huh? What was that?" I asked, doing a faux deep voice. I looked behind me and saw a box. I looked at it for a bit, then turned my head from side to side. "Must've been my imagination." I turned back around and winked at Taylor again.
I led her, and our followers, to the abandoned warehouse that I found a while back. When we got there, I turned around, "Here we'll be able to play without the harming of bystanders."
"Before we start, how about our contestants introduce themselves!" a voice announced, a spotlight shining onto a figure with a mic.
I raised my head, it had been lowered the entire time, "It's me, your friendly neighborhood skeleton, sans!" I had transformed into Sans as I was saying this, "and my helpful friend, skits!" Taylor eeped when the spotlight shined upon her.
"Alright then, the contestants have been announced and now, the battle will begin!" a bell struck several times.
Ugh- the Clockblocker thing- completely messed up on it. When i had written this, i didn't know how the Wards' powers work, so i went with Blocky's thing.
then, after reading this through again, i changed it up a little- to where they remember that Clocky can't throw things through time. ugh.
welp, other than that little blip, Enjoy!
