Rough Landing (Open)

[Deleted]

It was time for Dante to head to Jump City. He's been planning this for a while, and after tying up all his loose ends in Bludhaven it was to get out. Dante doubted he'll be back there for a while. He set up the magic circle for the teleportation ritual, he's done it before but never for someplace so far away. The spell itself is relatively simple, all he needed to do was focus on where he wanted to go and after going over many pictures of Jump City he decided to port to the beach. Less chance of porting into objects or people there. Dante sat in the circle cross legged, with a Duffel bag that contained his belongings and began the ritual. He focused as hard as he can on the Jump City beach while reciting the incantation "Ianuae Magicae" which is Latin for teleport. In a few moments he felt the magic stirring within him and then with a flash of light he was gone.


In a second he was on a beach at Jump City. "That wasn't so ba-" He began to say but suddenly he felt his stomach do a back flip and he ended up puking on the sand right next to him. Teleporting always upset his stomach but it was never this bad, then again he never traveled this far before. Dante picked up his bag and walked away from the vomit to make sure he was in the right place, he light up a cigarette with a small fire spell as he looked around. It took him a moment to realize that he wasn't exactly at the beach that he want to be on. "Oh..." the cigarette fell out his mouth he stared slack jawed at Titan's Tower, it was then he realized where he really was. In all the pictures he saw of the beach the tower was there and he did focus on it a lot to make sure he ported to the right beach.


"Heh, guess it worked out better than I thought." He said to himself as he light up another cigarette. Dante figured that the Titans probably have some kind of defense system that alerted them that he's there, he'll just sit there and hope they're not too aggressive towards people who teleport to their island and puke on it. "This should be interesting" He muttered to himself as he smoked looking at the entrance of tower waiting for whatever's coming at him.

Mimic was out bounty hunting that day, so it was bad luck to be a Wanted criminal that day. Most of his fellow Titans didn't really approve of his bounty hunting, but when it came to his...extracurriculars he wasn't really looking for their approval. In his full gold Euremian armor Mimic gave chase after the unlucky criminal, Jordan who was Wanted for arson and thievery.

Flying through the sky Mimic tracked the criminal back to Titans Island; which Mimic couldn't believe, but his advanced tracker never steered him wrong before. This guy was either stupid or desperate. No he was both. As he neared the island he spotted someone else appearing from nowhere and while this guy was puking (Seriously who does that?) his bounty was sneaking about behind him. Mimic just rolled his eyes as he lowered himself some. 'This is just one of those days,' he thought pulling out a strange looking device. Now hovering just above the trespasser's (Dante's) head Mimic took careful aim at his bounty and fired a net. The net caught Jordan completely by surprise and he fell to the hard, unforgiving ground with a grunt. "Gotcha!" Grinning behind his fullfaced helmet the young bounty hunter landed in front of the stranger. Not yet acknowledging him he walked past him and handcuffed his catch. As he did so not even turning around he spoke. "Any particular reason you are on our island or are you just playing tourist?" he asked the stranger while his bounty struggled. Mimic getting annoyed by Jordan's resistance just pulled out a needle and injected him with a serum that caused Jordan to fall unconscious.

Tossing the used needle away Mimic stood and turning around he faced the trespasser. "So, why are you here? Have you business with the Titans?" he questioned. "Either way I really must take this jerk to the prison he belongs in."


ooc: Hope you don't mind having your character meet my bounty hunter.

At first Dante didn't notice the person sneaking up behind him because his attention was drawn towards the armored person floating in front of him. "Huh." he said to himself as he examined the armor, it was unlike anything he had seen before. It looked like advanced tech, an area that Dante didn't have much experience with. What he did have experience with was people shooting at him, or at least he thought that he was the armored lad's target. Dante raised his arm to create a magical shield, but before he could cast the spell the net went past him to catch the fleeing fugitive. He canceled the spell and lowered his arm, though he would have liked to see what that suit could do he was glad he didn't have to fight the Titan on his own turf.

"Would you believe me if I said it was an accident?" Dante replied as he watched the Titan sedate his bounty. "Sorry about the mess I left, teleporting really upsets my stomach sometimes." He decided to be honest with him; no need to get on the Titan's bad side, yet. Dante was glad that he wasn't being dealt with too aggressively, but he knew that would change if he was perceived as a threat. So he chose to play the unlucky magician. "I wanted to land on the other side of the beach, hopefully make my way to the city from there. I mean the tower's nice and all but I got a feeling you don't let anyone waltz in whenever they please."

"Oh please, don't let me keep you from doing your job," he said with a smile, trying his best to sound genuine. "Just point me out to the exit. Is there like a boat or something I can take to get out of here? I'd rather not teleport again if I don't have to." There were other ways he could get across the water using magic, but he didn't want to show the Titan what he was capable of if he didn't have to.

Mimic listened to what the trespasser had to say and nodded. “Oh so you lack control over your teleporting abilities? Perhaps one of the Titans with that ability could be of assistance,” Mimic suggested. When the teleporter mentioned leaving a mess, Mimic recalling having seen him hurl earlier looked to the side of him and saw the ‘delightful mess’ he made. It was certainly disgusting. He made a face. “Boy you can say that again! What’d you eat anyway? Liver? Sushi? Hot peppers?” he asked being completely serious.

Mimic looked across the way to the very place the teleporter said he wanted to go. “Well on the bright side you didn’t miss it by much. And sure there are boats or if you want I could fly you across. I don’t mind. That way you won’t have to pay the boat fare,” offered Mimic. He casually looked back at his knocked out bounty. “The sedatives will last for awhile, so I have time,” he quickly added as reassurance. “Soooo um before things get too awkward, what was your name? Who are you anyway and what do you do besides mistakenly teleporting into other peoples’ backyards?” Mimic asked as he was quite curious.

"It usually works out fine but it gets tricky when it comes please you never been to and long distances." Dante answered Keeping up with the unlucky magician act. The idea of learning about what kind of magical abilities the Titans posses intrigued him, but he wasn't sure how they would react once they find out that the source of Dante's powers was demonic. "I might take you up on that, but I should find a place to stay." The question about his lunch confused Dante; at first he thought the Titan was joking with him but sounded genuinely interested. "Uh, tacos I think." Of all the things he expected to be questioned about, what he had for lunch wasn't one of them.

The idea of being picked up and flown around was not appealing to Dante, but it did seem like the fastest way out of island. "Sounds good to me. I don't think he's got anywhere to run to at this point." He wondered what the fugitive was thinking running to the tower in the first place but that was none of his business. "Oh right, I'm Dante." He said with a smile extending his hand to shake the Titan's. "I hunt down magical relics or other such nasty items and make sure they don't fall in the wrong hands." It was partly true, he just left out all the nasty occult business like the demons and human sacrifices.
