So...Seems like certain concepts keeping pairing up, like the previous time I used the Proteus characters from Mutants in the Now probobly because since Mutants in the Now doesn't have any actual adventures (At most 'Adventure Seeds' which plant an idea for the DM to follow) we kind of have so little to go on with these new characters so I'm using ideas from the Soul's Trilogy a Trio of Comics written by Guest Author Michael Zulli who is more well known for The Puma Blues series and like with the Proteus characters I hope to use the concepts I'm borrowing better this time rather than just do what the original Trilogy I plan to better blend into the themes of the story, because it just felt tacked on the last time.
Don and Vanessa returned to the lair and told everyone what they had learned.
"It may not even be a lead..." Leo said "...But so far it's the only thing we have, all right! We'll check out the Proteus Headquarters tomorrow night."
"I'm coming with you." Vanessa said
"No." Leo said firmly but trying to not to be too harsh "You have had no training and you're not accustumed to your now larger and more cumbersome body..."
"I was just thinking..." Vanessa said meekly "...I'd get out of your...Non-existant hair faster."
"Listen..." Leo said sympathetically "...We're real sorry about Raph, we're going to...Do something tomorrow...But also you're just a kid! We don't want to put you in danger!"
Vanessa sighed she knew they were right, they were trained Ninja and she still had problems manuvering her new bulbous body.
"In the meantime..." Mikey said heading over to where the TVs were "...Want to watch a movie? I'll let you pick which one!"
Vanessa was beginning to feel a little bit better feeling more certain Raph wasn't going to stab her with his Sais. In fact, she didn't see him at all, was probobly brooding in his room, maybe they were punishing him by making him sit in the corner, she could almost laugh at the thought if she wasn't otherwise so stressed out.
Meanwhile, after a rather uneventful day of finding only more questions about the Goop than answers, Jonathan was sleeping in his designated quarters, but it was not a restful sleep, he felt a like his chest was being constricted, he felt freezing like he was being touched by hands made of icicles!
In his dream he opened his eyes, he was on the ground, he looked at his body he was tied to the ground by...Cornstalks of all things! The ears of corn were like heavy padlocks weighing on his body...In front of him was a real Scarecrow...It was hard to see it because of the near blinding light behind it, Jonathan squinted as he tried to peer at the thing that inspired his Rogue Persona, then he heard a voice, a voice that he felt in every cell of his body.
"Bleeder...Beautiful..."
Something emerged from the Scarecrow's coat, Jonathan felt like he would scream if he wasn't feeling his chest constricted, it was a crow with only a skull for a head!
The terrifying Crow pearched on the Scarecrow's head and said "My Dearest! My Sweet Beast! I am coming! Desolation is coming!"
That finally gave Jonathan the strengh to wake up, he ran to his bathroom and vomited in the toilet!
For a few moments he just lay there, his face in the toilet bowl...He still had enough of his bearing to reach up to the handle to flush his vomit down.
'What in the name of Heaven was that?!' Jonathan thought to himself was he simply lay there trying to catch his breath 'I know each time a had gotten intoxicated by my own fear gas my visions had become more and more delerious so I could barely remember what I saw...But I feel faily certain I would remmeber something like that! And that was like nothing I ever saw in a fear gas hallucenation!'
Jonathan was beginning to get the sinking feeling that he and his fellow Rogues were in way over their heads this time!
So since he is a Scarecrow, this time Jonathan's dream connects more with his Scarecrow theme since Desolation is a crow
