Topic: Betrayal Game II #50: Around the World in 80 Slays Posted: 06-Nov-2011 at 12:42pm |
|
Detailed breakdown of clues and roles:
Clues
-Every round featured two cities as clues. -One clue would be hidden in the text and the other given on the paper slip. -The rounds alternated between stating the city outright in text or paper and simply hinting at the city on the other.
Round 1 In the most obvious clue in BG history, Krakow is written in huge font in the post. Krakow is a city in Poland. The paper clue says Peter and Paul. Peter and Paul Cathedral is the most famous landmark in St. Petersburg, Russia.
Round 2 Paper clue states Stanley, capital of the Falkland Islands. In the text Deadpool reads 30 Days of Night, taking place in Barrow, Alaska.
Round 3 In the text Deadpool says there was a "hammerfest." Hammerfest is a city in Norway. The paper says Nestor K. Nestor Kirchner was born in, and mayor of, Rio Gallegos, Argentina.
Round 4 The paper states Tromso, a city in Norway. In the text Deadpool says the killer made a very "sandy point" with Dust's death. Sandy Point is the English translation of Punta Arenas, a city in Chile.
Round 5 The only clue is the paper "^1234^<6789>" which tells you how to read the city clues. Cities in the first four rounds are significant for their latitude (^ ^ meaning north south with there being no down arrow) and in the last rounds if they exist they are for longitude (with <> meaning east west).
Round 6 The paper states Lisbon, capital of Portugal. In the text Deadpool strangely has a golden Jubilee. The Golden Jubilee House is the President's residence in Ghana's capital of Accra.
Longitudes of the cities with the numeral of the round they appeared in underlined:
50°03′N Krakow 59°56′N Saint Petersburg
71°18′N Barrow 51°42′S Stanley
70°39′N Hammerfest 51°38′S Rio Gallegos
69°40′N Tromso 53°10′S Punta Arenas
The longitude for round 6:
09º11′W Lisbon 00º12′W Accra
London, England is at 51°30′N and 0º07′W. Obviously leads you to Micromax. I'm sure that's how you guys got it, right? ;)
And every kill could essentially be done by becoming really tiny or really massive.
Roles
Marhawkman/Thor was the Nemesis, and his Nemesis was Quick and Dead. In no round could his two votes be the same as Quick and Dead or else they dont count. He never violated the rule.
Heroscott7/Cecilia Reyes was the Free Spirit. His two votes could never be the same as ANY other player or else they didn't count. He never violated the rule either.
Polaris/Wolfsbane was the Oddball. If a majority of the players with votes against them had an odd number, he was immune that round. In the first 10 out of 14 characters had odd votes and he was immune; in the 2nd it was 10 of 16 and he was immune again; 3rd was 9 of 14 and immune; 4th it was 5 of 11 and not immune; 5th was 4 of 9 and not immune. Polaris was never chosen to die though.
das_boot/Surge was the Ghost. If killed, he would pick a number 1-10 and each round the killer would try to guess that number. Until he did so, das_boot could still use one vote each round. He never died though.
Mastermind/Lifeguard was the Accuser. He PMed a vote against a third character each round. Round 1 was Surge, 2 was Karma, 3rd was Micromax. Wasn't used in the 4th before his death.
GenErik Lemons/Wolverine was the Skeptic and could remove a vote against any player each round. After round 1 he removed one from Hercules, after 2 from Hercules again, after three from Banshee, and after 4 from Banshee.
Crawler/Primal was the Guardian and he could grant immunity to a different player each round. Round 1 was Wolverine, 2 was Thor, 3rd was Karma. Then you accused him of being a murderer and he died.
History of Paper/Karma was the Best Friend and was best friends with das_boot. Paper could PM an extra vote as long as it was for one of the two characters boot was voting for that round. Round 1 a vote was added to Primal, round 2 to Primal, round 3 to Primal (ironically in this round das_boot began consistently voting for Karma). Paper then lost this role due to the thief role and it passed to Placebo. Placebo added a vote to Omega Red in the 4th and to Cecilia in the 5th.
Gibbering Fool/Mondo was the Soul Mate and his soul mate was Polaris. If either was chosen to die, neither would. But then if the other were, they both would. This role saved Mondo from immediate death. He was chosen as the very first kill, but the role saved him. That is why there was no kill at all in the 2nd round. If Polaris had later been picked then they both would have died to make up for it, but this never happened.
Drunk/Avalanche was the Liar. Every vote he posted in the forum didnt count and he instead PMed me different votes. This is why Apocalypse was not forced into revelation in round 5. Drunk's vote against him was fake. Drunk's actual votes in each round were: 1st Hercules and Thor, 2nd Hercules and Thor, 3rd Hercules and Thor, 4th Hercules and Lifeguard, 5th Micromax and Cecilia, 6th Micromax and Cecilia (ending the game despite it appearing Micromax was at 14 votes)
Providence/Dust was the Character Witness. Providence was told one character was definitely innocent and would be told another if that character died. The character was Mondo, who never was killed.
Ciel/Sunspot was the Whisperer. He could grant the Paranoia Kill to one player at any time in the game. In the 2nd, the round before his death, he passed it to Hercules. Hercules never used it before he died, despite being forced into revelation.
Unused_Bagels/ Omega Red was the Martyr. Each round he had to pick a different character and if that character was chosen to die then bagels would instead. Round 1 was Wolverine, round 2 was Apocalypse, round 3 was Surge, round 4 was Avalanche. In round 5 bagels picked Mondo and Medium again tried to kill Mondo. Amusingly, Mondo could not actually have been killed because of his Soul Mate role, but nonetheless Bagels was sacrificed for him.
Quick and Dead/Banshee was the Coward. Each round he had to pick a different character and if Quick was chosen to die that character would die instead. In round 1 he picked Cecilia, round 2 was Surge, round 3 was Apocalypse, round 4 was Lifeguard (lifeguard died this round but it was a coincidence), round 5 was Mondo. Banshee was never chosen to die.
UncannyScott/Hercules was the Mimic. He had to vote the same as at least
one other person each round. He never violated this rule.
In the new role debuting in this game, Placebo was the Thief. The thief picks a character and becomes that character's role, while that character becomes the new thief. The victim does not know who took his role. If the killer is picked, the thief dies. Placebo first picked das_boot and became the Ghost. Das_boot then amazingly at random picked Placebo to steal his ability right back. Placebo then instead picked History of Paper and became the Best Friend (to das_boot! Irony!) History of Paper then picked medium13 and was killed (apparently choosing to bow out as he had voted for Micromax that round :P)
Medium13/Micromax was of course the Killer.

As everyone stood around the confusing situation, suddenly the blind squirrel found a nut: Deadpool had figured it out.
"So someone managed to sneak out of the bathroom without his partner knowing," said Deadpool. "How could they do that?" Suddenly he pulled out a jar. "There the little bastard goes again!"
He lunged and managed to snag the little Micromax under the jar. "Excellent," said Deadpool. "I will now place a leaf and stick inside the jar and you will have to live in there."
Unfortunately Micromax simply increased back to his normal size and shattered the jar. "Oh god!" cried Deadpool. "He's more powerful than we could ever imagine!"
Avalanche quickly sent shockwaves through the floor and knocked Micromax off-balance. Apocalypse lunged and wrapped the British mutant in his arms. Surge stood before him with her arms charged and ready. "Make one move and get toasted," she growled.
Micromax knew he had been caught. Even increasing to his maximum size, he couldn't take them all. "Alright, Deadpool," he said. "How did you finally figure out it was me?"
"It was clever to make these two kill each other," said Wade. "But the mistake was you forgot the chief investigator here is a psycho who regularly hears voices in his head. It was easy for me to realize you had simply whispered insults into each of their ears and when they only saw each other, they came to blows. You were the only one who could pull it off."
"Well done," said Micromax. "You've got me. But you don't know the half of it. You want to know why I did it? You want to know who is really pulling the strings?! HAHAAH! You will never believe how far this goes! But here is the truth-"
BLAM! Deadpool blew Micromax's brains out.
"MISSION ACCOMPLISHED!" said Deadpool. "F*&% YEAH!"

Mondo was amazed he was still alive, surely he hadn't been entertaining since the first round. Regardless, he was still alive, while his drinking buddy was now dead. He couldn't help but think he was doing a very poor job of selecting suspects, since all of them had been picked off at one point or another.
"Ummm, how do we know the killer just didn't place the bodies to look like they were made to kill each other?" he asked, before practically fainting at his lucidity. For the first time since he discovered Black Tom's leaves were hallucinagenic, years ago, he was sober.
Cecelia Reyes shrugged and said, "I will have to examine the bodies thoroughly the determine if that is the case."
Mondo didn;t stick around for the examination, since Apocalypse was eyeing him weirdly

How unfortunate. I was positive that Omega Red would have survived this ordeal to become one of my greatest Horseman. So few options left, who shall I choose to become the new War. I have already ruled out Banshee and Wolverine as canidates. Micromax is capable of becoming a towering behemoth. Cecilia Reyes has survived numerous ordeals. However I think I will choose the young Mondo. His mimic abilities will be extremely useful. Plus his impulsiveness and brashness are perfect for waging war in this day and age.

Another Horseman and another God down. Lord Apocalypse seems to be the only one capable of doing this. But I don't remember him erasing my memorie in the bathroom. Or it could be Surge or should I say this Das_Boot personality she has in her head.

"Okay, now I'm confused."
What about?
"Regarding what?" asked Apocalypse, asking the EXACT same question as I did, but in a bit of a classier way.
"Karma's dead, so that rules her out, and mind-control would be the best way to get these two to fight one another to the death (Although I think that Herc could have taken Omega Red in a fight)... who else could have done it?"
Surge. HEY SURGE, PAY ATTENTION TO ME!
"WHAT?! There's no need to yell! I can hear you just fine, I just don't want to seem too crazy in case Apocalypse decides I can't be a horseman!"
Think about it. Last round there was a clue about 'she'. Now, if we think about it long and hard, I'm sure we could come up with a plausible reason why someone wouldn't do enough research to realise that although it sums up his powers, Banshee is named after a female spirit. And that his daughter has some kind of mind-control power that maybe he has too.
"Das_boot thinks it might be Banshee," said Surge, relaying the information to Apocalypse.
"How do I know that this Das_boot is correct?" asked Apocalypse. "And how did I know there was an underscore in his name without either of us having pronounced it?"
"Blame Deadpool, things get a little crazy whenever he's around, trying to peep on people while they're pooping," replied Surge. "Also, I THINK that his sonic powers could have scrambled Wolverine's brain to make him think that Banshee was there the whole time while they were pee-break buddies."
"This seems like a bit of a stretch," pondered Apocalypse thoughtfully.
"Either that or it's Reyes," replied Surge.

Hercules & Omega Red were the latest dead bodies to turn up. Wolverine looked around at his company and wondered just who was behind this carnage. "Could Apocalypse be the mastermind in this sick set up?" Wolverine thought to himself. "No, that'd be far too obvious. Deadpool is too much of an idiot to pull this off, so I know it wasn't him. He'd just blow us all to bits if that was his goal." Logan rubbed the stuble on his chin, further pondering on the mystery at hand. " I was with Banshee when it happened, so I know that he isn't the killer. Can't say I know too much about Micromax, but he seems harmless. Surge & Rahne are both good kids. I've trained alongside Cecilia Reyes in the Danger Room and know firsthand that she can't even take down Cypher. Maybe that strange Mondo kid did it? Nah, he's too laid back to be a murdering psychopath... Hmm... That covers everyone here, it's obvious the killer isn't in my line of sight..." Then it finally dawned on him. Logan's face got pale as he slowly slumped down against the wall. "I can't believe it.", he silently confessed to himself. "I'm the only one here lethal enough to have pulled this off. What if I slipped into some sort of bererker's rage, blacked out, and slaughtered Madrox and the rest? None of the jokers around here are capable of such bloodshed..." "NO, IT CAN'T BE!", he yelled. "Aye, you alright Logan? I figured you'd be happy to see Omega Red done in ol lad. Perhaps ye drank some o the wrong ale?" Banshee placed his hand on Wolverine's shoulder. Shocked at his own vocal outburst, he shook his Irish friend's hand and smiled. "Don't worry about me Sean, I'll be alright. Let's find us a killer! I'll show this scumbag why I'm the best at what I do!"

Round 6
"Alright everybody!" said Deadpool. "This time we are all staying in the main hall! No one is to leave until we figure this thing out!"
Just as Deadpool said this, he then noticed Hercules whipping out his manhood and beginning to urinate all over the floor.
"WOAH WOAH WOAH!" cried Deadpool. "What the hell are you doing?!"
"I must relieve myself and as you said we must stay within the room," proclaimed the Olympian.
"My god, no pun intended, go to the bathroom," replied Wade. "Who knows how much you might have to go after all the drinking you've been doing."
Hercules began to walk out when Deadpool stopped him again.
"Wait, you have to take a bathroom buddy," said Deadpool.
"Surely you jest!" cried Hercules.
"We have to make sure you can't be murdered," said Deadpool. "Now Omega Red will go with you."
The two reluctantly began to go out the door when Deadpool again stopped them.
"What are you guys doing? Trying to get killed?" he asked. "You have to hold hands on the way there or one of you might get lost and killed."
"That is the last straw!" bellowed Hercules as he prepared to rip off Deadpool's head.
"Wait," said Omega Red as he pulled Hercules to the side. "Let's just get the hell out of here and we won't have to put up with this fool or the killer anymore. We can leave these idiots to themselves."
Hercules and Omega Red then held hands on their way to the bathroom.
Unfortunately with those two gone to the bathroom, the idea soon came into everyone's mind and they all found they had to go.
Deadpool reluctantly decided they could as long as everyone was paired up."We will go to the public bathrooms, as those two undoubtedly headed straight for the executive bathroom for the Secretary-General. Everyone go in the stall right next to their buddy and that way we lose sight of no one. Alright, Wolverine you go with Banshee, Avalanche with Apocalypse, Micromax with Mondo, Wolfsbane with Cecilia, and I'll go with Surge."
"Hell no!" said Surge. "I'm not going into the same bathroom with a pervert like you!"
"I'm not interested in you. I have a secret crush," Deadpool said. To show his sincerity he pulled out a small golden statue of Jubilee. "This is my real love..."
"That's pretty f*&#ed up," said Surge. "I'm supposed to be more ok with this?"
"We have an odd number! We have no choice!" cried Deadpool. "Now let's get going!"
They all went to the bathroom, Deadpool taking the stall next to Surge. He knew his years of training in stealth would pay off and this was the day. Slowly he lifted his feet from the ground, not making a sound, and stood on the toilet. As he leaned to peak over the side suddenly a loud crashing came from upstairs. He lost his balance and fell, smashing his own face into the toilet. The stall door came crashing open and a furious Surge stood there. "WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON IN HERE!?" She blasted a huge bolt of energy into the stall and nearly obliterated Deadpool. Then she rushed out to join the others as they ran upstairs to the executive bathroom, where the sounds of a battle could be heard.
When Deadpool finally managed to stumble up after them, suffering from horrible electrical burns over much of his body, he discovered them gathered around Hercules and Omega Red. Hercules had his hands around Omega Red's throat while the mutant's tentacles were wrapped around Hercules's. Both were dead.
"So one of them was the killer and the other managed to stop him in death," said Cecilia.
"No," said Deadpool as he picked up a piece of paper that had been neatly folded and placed atop the bodies. "Neither could have placed the clue. Somehow they were made to kill each other by the murderer."
The paper simply said "Lisbon"
Might be murderers Wolverine XXXXX Apocalypse XXXXX XXXXX XXXX Avalanche XXXXX XX Banshee XXXXX Surge XXXXX XXXX Mondo XXXXX Micromax XXXXX XXXXX XX Wolfsbane XXXXX XXXXX XX Cecilia Reyes XXXXX XXX
Definitely not a murderer Madrox and 63 dupes Deadpool Sunspot Dust Primal Karma Lifeguard Thor Hercules Omega Red

Too much death and despair is unfolding around her. Cecilia walks over to Hercules to check on his accident. She decides it is nothing too dire, and walks away. She begins to wonder, did the death camps impair her memory? could it be possible that she have possibly developed some violent tendencies lapsing her mind? If Karma were still alive she could be certain. She hangs her head pondering what to do next...There is but one way, I may be able to persuadeApocalypse to evaluate my motives. Cecilia makes her way to find Apocalypse. On her way she takes a second look at Surge

"I knew it couldn't have been you, old buddy," Banshee said with his arm around Hercules, not realizing that his drinking partner was unconscious.
Cecilia continued to check out Hercules' body. "Oye, this lass is never satisfied! Always coming back for more of us!," Banshee said as he crawled over to her. Without even glancing his way, Cecilia trapped him in a forcefield bubble and threw him up to the ceiling. Banshee began to shout obscenities at Avalanche who snickered at him from below.

Hercules sputtered in indignation as the gathered heroes and villains began to point the finger at him. "You dare suggest the son of Zeus as some killer! You shall all feel the might of Hercules mace! I shall bring the gift down upon your heads as I am innocent of the crimes you suspect me of. None shall escape!"
Hercules began swinging his mighty mace and moved forward as the others all leapt out of the way, reaching the far wall the mace hit the wall and glanced up and slammed into Hercules skull. The Greek hero staggered back and collapsed to the ground. There was a mighty bruise upon his head and the man was not going to get up for a bit.
"So much for the mighty Hercules." Wolfsbane snickered.
Cecilia shook her head and moved over to check out the body. Hercules was breathing but was apparently just sleeping it off. No doubt in conjunction with the massive amounts of alcohol consumed in the time since the murders started. "He'll be all right, he's just apparently sleeping it off."

Micromax looked on in disgust at that twit Mondo. "Everybody! Let's all vote for Hercules over and over again. We can just confront him now!"
He hoped that the others would join him in voting for Apocalypse as well. But it was becoming clear they took Micromax's disinterest in this game as an admission of guilt.

Mondo would have been stunned if he had realized all the people he had suspected were suddenly dead in one fell swoop. Sadly, because he was too oblivious and self involved he might as well suspect Hercules and Micromax.
He also didn't wonder about that fact a woman that could adapt to any situation was somehow drown in a fountain.

"I hope you all see what happens when you so rudely reject the help of Apocalypse. Now with Karma eliminated as a canidate I must find a new Pestilance. Ahh, little Rahne Sinclair. You shall be my fourth Horseman. Using my technology I shall make your bite as infectious as the Werewolves I had to face a few centuries ago." "Just in time for Halloween," chimed in the future Death now known as Avalanche. "This is so unfair," whined Banshee. "Why can't I be Pestilance?" "War take care of that drunken bafoon again."
OOC: My votes are for Hercules and Micromax

"Who the hell would know that Thor was allergic to peanuts?" asked Surge.
Are you talking to me?
"Are you talking to me?" asked Apocalypse, raising the area of skin where his eyebrows would have been had he possessed any. A brother over-plucked.
"I'm talking to you, Apocalypse," she said, ignoring the almost super-modelesque Das_boot as he continued narrating. "Doesn't it seem weird that someone knew of a specific allergy? Especially when Cecelia could have given him a dose of epinephrine? And that she's also the resident doctor so she'd have had access to this," handing Apocalypse Thor's medical notes.
"Where did you find this?" he asked.
"I don't know," replied Surge. "Where DID I find this?"
Oh, plot device. Unimportant.
"Gotcha. Anyway, she could have also used her forcefield to keep Lifeguard's airways open and drown her."
"You may yet be worthy of the title of Horseman," smiled Apocalypse.
"Yeah, don't smile. Ever. You have receding gums. So much for pure genes."
"YOU DARE?!" bellowed the ancient mutant.
"So who else do we think is the killer?" asked Surge, turning her attention back to--
"Yeah, stop narrating now."
"THE INTERNAL MONOLOGUE OF APOCALYPSE IS FEARED THROUGH THE AGES!!!"
Oh, hush, you. I'd like to say Omega Red, but I think maybe Wolfsbane.
"What if it's a red herring?"
We'll be alright. Trust me.
"Easy for you to say, your not trapped in here with a killer!"
Neither are you! The door's open! Deadpool is incompetent at lockdowns!
"Good point..."

Omega Red sat in a comfy chair and watched Deadpool walk outside. "Why has not anyone tried outside going? Everyone just getting slowly killed." He shrugged. "I still guess is more powerful member of group. Like Hercules or Apocalypse. Only immortals can knowing of peanut allergy. Omega Red is fed up of this."

Round 5
Deadpool carefully examined the little pieces of paper. He switched them around and arranged them in proper order but it was clear he was still missing some pieces of the puzzle. Then he pushed aside those McDonald's Monopoly game pieces and focused on the clues instead. Unfortunately his concentration was interrupted by a beeping sound. He checked his phone and his pager and his PDA and his Nintendo DS and his Kindle and his MP3 player and his watch and then the alarm system he had set up to go off in case anyone tried to leave. Probably should have checked that first he realized as he saw that was indeed what had been triggered.
As he went to the door that was open to see what had happened he ran into Omega Red.
"Did you go outside?" asked Deadpool.
"No, you said we were not permitted to. You don't trust me?" asked Arkady.
"You are a notorious villain at a conference of superheroes where several of them have turned up dead. Why would I trust you?" replied Wade.
"Good point," the Russian said. "But still it wasn't me. Lifeguard said she needed some fresh air and was stepping out for a moment. Should I have killed her to prevent this?"
"No, that would not be necessary," said Deadpool.
"Should I go kill her now for breaking rules?" asked Omega Red.
"NO! NO KILLING PEOPLE," Deadpool shouted. "Why the hell are you here? Was the Winter Guard really too busy? They haven't gone on a mission in like a decade but they can't come to this?"
"Quite frankly I'm offended by your tone," replied Omega Red.
Deadpool just shook his head and went outside to find the Australian mutant.
----
The killer must have some sick sense of humor because Deadpool found Lifeguard floating dead in a large fountain out front. She had no marks on her and had apparently been drowned in the water.
He gathered everyone inside once again and reiterated no one was to exit the building. Except the killer. The killer could permanently exit the building and not return if she wanted. But everyone else was stuck in this very crowded edition of Marvel Team-up with Deadpool.
He noticed however that not everyone was present. The entire Vietnamese delegation was missing.
"Alright everyone! Let's split up and look for Karma," he said.
"Shouldn't we search in pairs?" asked Thor. "Going off by ourselves seems like it will lead only to another victim."
"You just want a partner so you can murder them, you killer!" accused Deadpool.
"But have I not already declared I am not guily?" replied the Norse god.
"You expect us to believe your half-hearted OOC declaration of innocence?!" asked Wade.
"Yes," said Thor.
"Ok, we do. But still it will take longer to go in pairs so we have to weigh the pros and cons of your lives versus my valuable time and I really think its going to come down to us needing to split up," reasoned Deadpool. "So let's get to it!"
After a few minutes of searching, Karma's body turned up. Her neck had been snapped. But that wasn't the worst part. As they all eventually came together to see the tragic fate of the girl, Thor didn't join them. They found him in the kitchen, also dead.
After examining his body it was clear he had died of a severe allergic reaction. Some peanuts were near his body.
"Wow, Thor was allergic to peanuts," said Deadpool. "Can't believe this never came up."
"It seems like an awfully convenient way to kill off a nearly indestructible character using a cast of characters with limited powersets," said Mondo.
"Hey can you name an issue where you saw Thor eating peanuts? This is perfectly legitimate!" said Deadpool.
"How would the killer know he was allergic when no one else did?" said Avalanche.
"Entirely irrelevant," said Wade. "What is important is this: Who could have forced him to eat these peanuts? Easy. KARMA. Karma is the killer!"
"Are you serious?" asked Hercules.
"Yes, why wouldn't I be?" replied Deadpool.
"We found Karma dead like literally ten minutes ago," the Greek god replied.
"Did we?" asked the merc. "Oh yeah! We totally did. Man, that's three kills this round. You know what we should have done? Gone searching in pairs."
Everyone just sighed and shook their heads. Deadpool picked up a scrap of paper. Another clue, but they had now degenerated into complete nonsense: "^1234^<6789>"

Wolverine jumped into action! Having just seen his buddy Banshee getting tossed around like a ragdoll by his old foe, Omega Red, he unleashed his adamantium rage!
"Step off the Irish, or you'll leave this conference in pieces!"
Omega Red stepped toward Logan and scoffed, "What are you going to do, scratch me? You've gone soft old man, Wolfesbane could cut deeper than you."
Wolverine just laughed him off. "If you're looking for an easy kill, and by the looks of your prey, you are... Avalanche is on the other side of the room! Nobody would mind, nor notice he's gone."

"You're a despicable creature," Karma said to Apocalypse. "Do you really think I have forgotten what happened when you 'helped' Angel? My answer is, and ever will be, NO!" Karma walked away from the immortal mutant as she saw Surge approaching. It was best not to be seen together with a known villain, especially with people being suspicious and all. But she knew that, even though Apocalypse was as evil as they come, he had nothing to do with these latest murders. Her mind had touched his and there was no doubt about this. Instead, it was funny man Micromax who topped of her list of suspects. She had to learn the truth, even if it would kill her.
She approached the Brit, passing the gluttonous Hercules on the way. "Micromax, I'm sorry for this. Or maybe not. We'll see." Focusing her mental energy on the size-shifter, Karma tried to take over his mind.

The death surrounding the conference was not getting to the Prince of Power as it really wasn't the top priority on his mind. Banshee had finished off any of the libations left within the conference and Hercules was not happy. Why bother to give the gift upon the killer in their midst if there was nothing to use for celebration after? It was ludicrous. Hercules had noticed the looks that the young woman that went by the name Dust had been giving him. There was no woman alive, or dead for that matter, that could not help but to swoon when he was around. Perhaps she was to be the next to lie in the bed of Hercules, though she would have to age a bit so as to not lead to a misunderstanding and battle with the X-Men. Battling fellow heroes had become worn out and tiresome.
The young man Mondo was looking suspicious within the Prince of Powers gaze. Striding forward the man pushed the young man against a wall and waved his mace in his face. "Speak now foul one or the Prince of Power shall remove your tongue from your person!" Suddenly a barrel was spotted and Mondo was dropped as Hercules strode over and ripped the top off and poured the glorious mead right into his mouth. It was good to be Hercules.

Banshee was the drunkest he's ever been. So drunk that he began to approach Apocalypse angrily.
"Hey! Big guy! Remember me?," Banshee yelled up at him.
"Honestly, no," Apocalypse said matter-of-factly. "And I don't wish to be reminded. Leave my presence before I swat you like a fly.
Banshee yelled inaudibly and flew crooked up to Apocalypse's face. He drunkenly swayed back and forth and said, "Why not me? Not good enough for you, old boy???"
Apocalypse gestured towards
"Excuse me?," asked Apocalypse.
"I've been an X-Man for quite some time now. Why haven't you ever chosen me to be a horsemen?
Apocalypse gestured towards Omega Red. "Consider him your first assignment as my Horseman," he said.
With no hesitation, Omega Red grabbed Banshee with his tentacles and flung him hard against the wall. Forgiving him for his earlier actions, Cecilia Reyes rushed to his aid, trying her best to keep Omega Red away with her powers.

Avalance took a shot of liquid courage he swiped from Hercules. He mustered up all the bravado that he could to speak to the immortal Apocalypse. "I know that you want to make the delegate killer your Death Horseman, but we all know that Wolverine already had that job and he quit. I want to throw my name in the ring for that position."

Omega red laughed at SURGE as she approached APOCALYPSE. "Silly girl. You act like you have the too many personalities disorder. Perhaps chaos horse needs rider, yes? Now all we need is to find out how is possible for someone trap immortals and metallic super beings in conference building? I find hard believe is true." He went off to find the doors.
