⇨ AGENTS HAVE ARRIVED [CLOSED PLOT]

[ringleaders]

Who: Tamaki, Childermass, Carly, Susan, Peridot, and Sherlock. And AGENTS.
Where: Inside The Matrix.
When: D28
What: The Agents have been watching your activities over the last week, and they’ve decided it’s time to act.
Warnings: Violence and most likely body horror.

THE ABDUCTION↴ The visitors have not be subtle in their intrusions, and for a time the Agents have held back, analysing the true effects of these new entities before deciding to make a move. But now, their patience has run out. The source of this infection must be found, and eliminated, or else the whole system could be dragged apart. These aren’t just the rebelling humans. These are something else. [OOC: Tamaki, Childermass, and Carly were selected from the danger raffle to be fully abducted by Agents. Susan, Peridot, and Sherlock will be attacked by Agents, but will escape when Resistance members intervene. Please make a top level below with your characters doing something in the Matrix that is relatively secluded from big crowds of people, as that is when the Agents would most likely strike. You can bring other characters along if you like for the initial confrontations, though only the selected characters will actually be captured by Agents. Any injuries sustained in these fights will equally damage character’s real physical forms, no matter how damage resistant they may normally be. Unless they are bending the Matrix to use their powers or to alter it with One powers, they will be as vulnerable as a normal human. Agents and Resistance members will be played by the mods in this log.]

"Well, okay then. Am I being detained?" The detective kept his hands raised. He was about to run for it though, he did not want to get arrested even if it was for something stupid, like not having a proper permit or something.

"In a sense." the man answered after a long moment of silence. Sherlock running is exactly what he's afraid of. It's one of the reasons he isn't being informative. He could shoot his leg to stop him, but humans were so fragile.

[thevictoriandetective]

"Well. In that case..."

Annnnd he's running.

Sherlock whirls around, dashing for the nearest ledge. He was so certain that this federal agent wannabe couldn't jump across the chasm like he could. He took a flying leap and kicked off the edge of the building, aiming to land on the apartment roof yards away.

[npcarnival]

The agent can make the leap, and he knows it. When Sherlock starts running, so does he. Sherlock may have a head start, but the agent is faster, and he knows it. He reaches the edge of the building, easily leaping across, and while he does he aims for Sherlock, trying to tackle the man to the ground.

[thevictoriandetective]

Sherlock feels something heavy hit him in the back, and the detective goes sprawling. His gun slips out of his hand and goes clattering across the rooftop.

H-how...?!

"Ggrrrghhh--!" Sherlock tried to kick his long legs at the Agent's face.

[npcarnival]

It's unfortunate that he isn't allowed to injure their targets, the thinks, as he lets Sherlock kick him, but refuses to move or otherwise relinquish his hold on the detective.

"Fighting is pointless Mr. Holmes!"

[thevictoriandetective]

He can't get free. It's not a normal human's grip, he figures. That's...a whole lot of not good.

"You have no right to hold me!" He tries to kick him again.

[npcarnival]

He lets go, rolling to his side before jumping to his feet. The movements happen so fast they look impossible. Sherlock has time to move, but not much before the agent is aiming his gun at him again.

[thevictoriandetective]

What...? That was...that was impossible! Or just improbable. No one should be able to move that fast.

Sherlock manages to get up, and is ready to throw a punch but holds back when he realizes the gun's pointing at him again. He lets his fist drop, sighs, and holds his hands up.

"What exactly do you want?"
