Superhero Roleplay [Closed]

Dylan paced in his room.

Element's warning echoed in his head, and not for the first time he wondered what he had gotten himself into. Would he be in any of this if he hadn't touched the stone? Or better yet, if he hadn't walked into the study?

This is me, isn't it? This is all my doing.

He shook his head in defeat, still pacing. Now, he had an even bigger problem to contend with. The Flame, and his own father with it, had picked him out as it's next target.

Wait, is that really what she meant?

She was right about one thing: he had gone largely unscathed throughout the past day and a half. Maybe it wasn't that the Flame wanted him dead. Maybe, instead, the Flame wanted him home.

Xelnarin wanted him home.

He cursed. That couldn't have been what she had meant. She didn't know of Dylan's memories, his ties to the Flame. The warning had been simple. Watch your back.

Element sat down at the edge of the stream. Life had gone from simple to psychotic in a little over twenty-four hours. The Flame, Vaughn, Avery, and Dylan were all the people she had to trust most, and she hardly knew them. Avery had been a friend before, they knew each others powers and kept them secret, but that was it. Suddenly, something broke through her thoughts.
Pain.
She felt more pain then she'd every felt in her entire life. Her head throbbed, her chest seared. She screamed, and went limp, rolling into the water. The last thing she saw, was that man in grey from her dream, holding some sort of knife, and what seemed to be power dampening cuffs.
She was being kidnapped.

Dylan huffed. There wasn't much he could do sitting here. He had the sudden urge to go hurt something. It wasn't typical of him to feel that way, but that's how it was.

So he went outside. Tip-toeing past Avery was easy enough aided by his invisibility, though he could've swore he saw her flinch as he passed. He went outside and reappeared, walking past Oscar, who's engine was off. Taking a second to reorient himself, Dylan headed west, towards his apartment. When he arrived, he immeadietly took to his parking space and mounted his motorbike, then turned and headed towards the first alley he found.

(He's trying to find the Flame, or get them to come to him, just so he could "practice")

Element awoke in the back of a car, her head on fire. She couldn't move. She could barely breath. Her powers weren't working, she felt special cuffs on her wrists. She groaned, and tried to move. "I wouldn't do that if I were you, it'll only make the pain worse." said a voice beside her. She turned her head slightly, and saw a boy about her age, with the same cuffs on.

"Who are you?" Element asked, her mouth extremely dry. The boy let out a weak smile.

"I'm nobody. At least not anymore." he said sadly. "But you can just call me Dev." Element sat up, feeling her pain begin to ebb away.

"Wait. Thats Tajik for demon. Are you… Are you one of the demonic species?" she asked. Dev nodded.

"The Flame has been tracking down anybody with demonic origins. That includes Shadow Manipulators, fire wielders, and a lot of others. I'm guessing your a fire wielder?" he questioned. Element nodded.

"That and other things." She said. But then with sudden realization, her heart twisted. Dylan was a shadow manipulator.

Dylan swung around, suddenly hot when he saw Oscar. If Avery knew what he was about to do, she would probably boot him right there.

But instead, Avery's voice was projected from the car. She was elsewhere

"Dylan, get in the car! We have to find Element and Vaughn." She said through the car.

Dylan, in response, gestured to the motorbike next to him, "I have a ride. Lead on, I'll follow."

Just then, he felt a tap on his shoulder, and then an arm slid around his neck, dragging him into the shadows.

( Dylan and Element need to get kidnapped together and find each other! )
The car came to a stop in front of an apartment building. Element peeked up out the window, and gasped. "OSCAR!" she cried. "Dev," she said. "Whats going on?" Dev shook his head sadly.
"Another one is about to join us."

Dylan roared, putting an autonomous shadow-blade through the man behind him. In a fit of rage, he took control and through the agrressor out into the open street with his powers. He was about to cloak, but from behind another assailant kicked him in the back of the knee, forcing him down and taking his arms behind him. Dylan struggled, fighting as he felt metal slide around his wrists. Opening his palms out behind him, he tried to force a blast of light.

Nothing came. Panic set in.

His attacker kicked him unconcious, and shoved his limp body into the trunk of the car.

"DYLAN!" Element screamed when they threw him in the car. He was a bloody mess, and she tried to shake him awake.

(Ok. I guess Dylan's in the back seat.)

Dylan's mind rebooted. Well, at least, it tried.

The swift kick to the head hadn't helped much. Everything in his head was scrambled, and his vision was blurred to hell. So when he finally opened his eyes, it was Avery he saw looking down on him.

"Avery?" He whispered, voice gone, "how are you… what?"

He blinked a few times, and his vision slowly corrected. Element looked down, a smirk on her face, yet an underlay of concern in her eyes. Dylan pulled the corners of his mouth down, but didn't speak further. He sat up, trying to sort out the rest of his thoughts. Anger boiled within.

"Calm down." Element snapped when Dylan began to get antsy. "You were just knocked out." Dev walked over and kneeled beside him. ( Its a very large truck! )

"Hey." he said.

Dylan stared as the other guy came closer. As his vision continued to straighten at length, he noticed sandy brown hair, forest green eyes, and freckles on the new face staring back at him. He squinted a bit more, and then recognition dawned in his eyes.

"Devrin Fair? For real? I thought you were out of the country, man!" Dylan offered his best brotherly hug for being in cuffs, "I thought you'd gone to study phaze systems in Britain. What brought you back here?"

(Where is here, exactly?)

"Wait wait wait, you guys know each other?" said Element, looking back and fourth between them.
