All Hallow's Eve (Alpha Flight)
The town of Bay Roberts, Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada had a population that was close to 5500. It wasn’t a big town in terms of towns, but it had a long history and was in a good location. It sat in Conception Bay protected from the harsh winter storms and not far from St. Johns the capital of the island allowing the town to be a hub for transportation and distribution for the island.

It was Halloween and the residents were celebrating. The children were dressed up and trick-or-treating and some adults were dressed up as well. Some adults dressed up as things from pop culture and some a ghoulish fiends. It was a night of fun for everyone.

Along the shore in the bay a more sinister thing was happening. Dark misshapen figures crawled out of the water and crawled ashore. These were creatures of nightmares and they weren’t costumes. The Deviants, with a few priests, started walking toward the town.

	Jordan is dressed in a toga, sandals and a laurel wreath. Seems to work well enough. Sure, he's a little old for trick or treating, but he can still make the rounds and watch the kids having fun, before heading to a party for the night - which he's made sure the group got invitations to.

	Alex wasn't sure if he was going to go to the party or not. In a way every day was Halloween for him. It had been years since he had looked like himself and parties weren't exactly his thing. He was sprawled out on the couch in the 'Temple' and considered his options. Then the base alarms started blaring. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Mel had been 'haunting' the front atrium when the alarm sounded. She stepped out of the walls. "What do we do? she asked the first person she saw. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"...reply to the alarm?" Emily guesses. She's dressed as Morticia Addams, and she looks around for guidance. "Let's head to ops." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Marrina had been dressed as Ariel. Cliched? Yes. But the sea-shell bra was cute. "Let's go." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	It didn't take long to arrive at Newfoundland and Bay Roberts. Alex found a small clearing on the outskirts of the town where he could land and let his passengers off. Once those who were getting off were off, he took to the air again and headed for the bay. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	Alex tore into any deformed shape he could find. The waters churned and turned red for a few brief momtns. Eww. Monster. He'll never get the taste out of his mouth. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	The deviants tried to get away from the great white shark as fast as they could, but most just floundered. The priests' spells let the breathe in the water, but they were still more comfortable on land. Three tried to rush the woman. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Marrina shifted to the powers of an electric eel and brought both hands up, releasing an electric charge at the nearest two of the three. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Alex continued to tear up the monsters, but claws and teeth raked into him. His blood mingled with water. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Deviants fled toward land away from the shark. The ones near Marrina were caught in the electric charge and started to spasm. The third one not caught by the charge, swiped at her with a large clawed hand. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	On land (Jordan, Mel and Emily) nextgen_deviant 2009-11-01 06:01 pm UTC (link)
	The deviants kept after the townspeople, but a few recognized a greater threat when they saw it. A few stormed after the people who had just arrived on the scene. Five rushed Jordan at once. Two went after the woman trying to get the townspeople, otherwise known as dinner, away. The priests looked on. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	As the civilians passed by a fire hydrant -- one turning purple -- it suddenly opened up with a sudden high-pressure blast at the monsters, hoped to be a minor distraction. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Oh good, they're finally turning their attention to him. Jordan tries to give them all the more reason, rushing right into their charge, throwing a punch as he goes. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	The deviant that Jordan hit went flying through the air and into a building. The ones hit by Emily's blast stop in their tracked and screamed in pain. Two were thrown back under the gush of water. More pressed on. A priest slowly approached Emily from behind. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	With their task completed, the priests ordered a retreat. The deviants started retreating toward the ocean. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	Alex jumped out of the water and was a clear goo for a few seconds before turning into the familiar beagle. //No clue, but Jordan you better tell them who we are and tell them to calm down.// (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
