Being on an island, did seem to moderate the climate. So it was not as hot as his native Uganda. The evenings brought out the lemurs and their child-like cries. For Mikita, it was time to reflect and to plot. It was time for him to earn his keep. With luck, everything would go smoothly.

Miami Fl. Contract Day
Carlos Menedez sat on the bed, working at his laptop typing away furiously. On the widescreen TV on the wall, various files were opening up and gifting the assembled team with the information they needed - the building schematics.
Carlos raised his arms up in a sign of victory. "I am God!" he blurted out.
Emmie sneered down at him. She knew real Gods. Still, the Cartel's hacker had done a creditable job. They had both the rooms the Feds were using and now the lay out of each of the rooms they would be hitting. Added to that, Emmie had the name of the chief of the US Marshall's squad camped out to protect this ... "traitor" to her family.
It was almost time for Dustbin to arrive. She had already warned the rest of the team that if they so much as blanched at their 'specialist's appearance, they would be lucky if Emmie was the one who killed them. She doubted it would come to that. Save for Carlos, these men were hardened killer and, as matter of course, she had brought a meal for Dustie - just to be polite. The meal was an informer for the Columbian military back home. Here, in Miami, all he was was a courtesy for a friend.
Domingez was the teams driver and muscle. His real duty was to clean up the teams presence here once the hit was going down. He was tall, muscular, but not too good looking. Bright enough to do his job right.
Phillipe was a back-up sniper. He could position himself close by and be evacuated once the mission was complete. He might not even have to shoot, but his presence would come in handy for a diversion. He was the oldest member of the team with military cut hair and a short, wiry build. He was also Google-searching the area around the hotel, finding the best vantage points for the appropriate rooms.
Juan's job was to corral Carlos. Carlos was a definite asset, coached for several years for his obvious (baseline) talents with the Opnet. Juan kept an eye on the younger man. He was a cold, quiet man, probably not happy with his current assignment, but he understood its necessity. If the mission required it, he would shut off the building's back up systems when Carlos dropped the automated ones. Juan was a very non-descript man, though well-built.
Together the baseline team was very professional. They had a certain cocky air about them. They felt that they might not even have needed the novas if they had their own way. They were wrong.

It was strange not being locked up in a cage like an animal. He could wake up any time he wanted, go to bed if he wished, and eat what and where he pleased. Well, not exactly; food was a complicated matter. He had the regular dietary requirement like everyone else, but his body needed an additional substance: Dust.
It was not really dust. It was more like ash. A very fine ash that clinged to things. But it was not naturally occurring, in that you could go down to your store and buy it, or dig it out of your fireplace. It had to be manufacured from animal flesh. The manufacuring process was simple, and his own body gave him the means of harvesting it. All he did was think about turning someone to dust while looking at them, followed by a familiar surge through his head, and that person was a pile of ash. So far it had been an effective tool and had never failed to do it's intended job.
This brought him to the present. His feeding necessity was now something he was paid for. Today was his first official job, and his associate 'E' would be waiting for him with several others. 'E' was a strange girl: she was beautiful and desireable. She also delighted in her work...the same work as him...both were hired killers. Mikita had to admit, that 'E' was more ruthless and took delight in her work. It made her even more attractive in his eyes. Both of them had a certain coldness to their souls.
He finished bathing and put on his eufiber. Instead of the usual red headscarf, jeans, tennis shoes and shirt, he went with all black. It seemed appropriate, being that today he would kill for money and not survival. He had no second thoughts about it. It was an added bonus. Getting paid to do what he would have to do anyways had a certan appeal.
He pictured himself in the city of Miami. To aid in his location of a place, he had a large wall map to tell him where on the planet a place was located. It helped him get to places he had nver been to. Places that he frequented, or planned to go to frequently were marked with pins. Although, all it took was remembering what the place looked like, to get there again. It was to remnd him that he had been across the globe.
A slight tingle brought the same map into his mind, as he focused on the coordinates given. There was a brief sensation of weightlessness before the actual jump. The jump itself made no noise or light. The surroundings in front of his eyes blurred, then changed in an instant to the new surroundings. On rare occasions, he found himself in a completely alien place. His jumpings failed sometimes, and when they did, they did in a spectacular fashion. One time he became intimate with a tree. He spent a month at home, healing from his wounds.
This time, there seemed to be no problem. He was in a hotel room, it what looked to be a large modern city. A packet of hotel issued items on the desk told him he was in the right place. But what room? He quickly opened the door to the hallway outside and checked the room number. Room 415. He was across the hall from his intended destination. Close for a blind jump.
There were no people in the hallway. Still he did not want to risk being seen. A man with dusties unusual appearance could not appear incognito. So he wished to jumpt there. In a flash, he was there. He knew it because 'E' was there. She also had a captive with her. Brunch? he wondered. Dustbin figured he had better ask first.
"Is that mine?" Dustie asked from behind his scarf, as his stubbie fingers pointed towards the captive man.

She was ruthless, and it seemed to Dustie that she liked watching him work. She hinted to him that she was envious of his power. For now, she would have to be content on watching, and sharing his power vicariously.
The man was sprawled out on the glass table, struggling feebily. His dark eyes shone with fear, as they seemed to beg for mercy. Dustbin would be merciful to the man and grant him a quick annihiliation. After his remains were eaten, his soul would be part of Mikita. That soul would provide the tall African with nourishment over the next several days.
The man's face twisted in confusion and his eyes widened as Dustbin struck. There was a brief flash, followed by the smell of ozone, and all that remained was a small pile of ash.
Dustbin began to remove the headscarf and paused. He turned to 'E' and, in his heavy African accent, spoke. "I am becoming... different." It was the only word he could think for what had changed. He said it as a warning for her and the others in the room.
His visage had become truly nightmarish. The same deformities and missing pieces were there, but it now gave the onlooker a sense of impending dread. The revulsion was so overpowering sometimes, that when Mikita focused on being terrifying, people fled screaming.
With deft and nimble stubby hands he scooped up the ashes and poured them into his mouth. The residual energies in them, acted like static electricity, as it stuck to his fingers. His tongue dextrously cleaned it from his stubbly fingers. What he did not consume, faded away into nothing after a few minutes. That was why eating it on the spont was paramount. If he waited too long, the ashes vanished.
Putting the scarf back on his head, he gave what might have been interpreted as a smile. "Thank you for meal. When we start?"

Domingez turned and struggled to stop himself from retching. Juan stumbled back so suddenly, so quickly, that he almost fell over the chair he had been leaning on. Phillipe held his ground admirably, but a sheen of sweat appeared on his forehead. A sniper's confidence helped him hold his ground while Dustie was revealed in all his - its? - horrific glory.
Carlos, oblivious to the Real World while he slashed away at Opnet obstacles, missed the spectacle and thus kept his lunch, and a his sanity. When he said "cool" he was talking about how easily he was slicing through the Hotel's security software, not commenting on Dustie's preferred means of feeding.
For Emerald, it was spectacular every time she saw it. It was fear clutching her heart and tightening its grip until her pulse pounded in her head and her extremities tingled. It was ... orgasmic.
She couldn't stop herself. She reached out and rubbed Dustie's shoulder as the horribly disfigured mutant ate. Proximity was the ultimate expression for being alive for her. That was what Dustbin did - he made you come so close to death, all you could feel was life.
She rubbed his shoulder and mouthed a 'thank you.'
Carlos looked up, noticed with a curious expression that the captive was gone and wrote it off as none of his business. "The meals will be there in about five minutes. It figures they won't be in the bathrooms at that time, so you can 'port in there ... and there."
Phillipe cleared his throat before speaking up. "I have a good position for shooting at Room #1. They took precautions for #2, so I'm not going to be much help there, but I can keep the cavalry pinned down." As he spoke, Phillipe pulled out a long, black case out. He put on some orange-tinted shades and a ball cap.
Juan recovered a bit, but still looked green under his dusky skin. "Alright Carlos, time to clean up and go. We should be on the boat in half an hour. Let's go." It was obvious he wanted to put this room far behind him.
Domingez headed for the bathroom. He quickly returned with a briefcase which he opened. Inside was a host of cleaning supplies and plastic gloves. With the occassional nervous glance toward the two novas, the muscular hispanic began to wipe the surfaces down with an ammonia spray.
Emmie watched her team work and noticed how they feared Dustbin. Right that they should too. If only they feared her that way. One day they would.
Once Carlos had been packed up and they two of them were on the way to the lobby, Emmie turned to Dustie. "I will be right back." She went over, put an hand on Phillipe's arm and and concentrated. A moment later, they vanished into the ether. Ten seconds passed and only she returned.
"He said to give him 60 seconds. I put him right on target, but he needs to set up his firing stance. Once I'm sure you are evacuated, I will go back for him." She grinned and added, "Of course, if I'm not back for him three minutes after we start, he will make his own way home without us." That assumed that she was dead, no doubt.

Dustbin counted, so that 'E' could begin her diversion.
1..2..3..4..5
Dustie had the familiar weightless sensation, as everthing blurred around him, and his body jumped from the hotel room, to the target's bedroom.
He found himself standing in the bathroom adjoining the bedroom. As he walked out to get his target, as frightened looking man bumped into Dustie. The man was fleeing to the bathroom. The gunshots and shouting, coming from the other side of the bedroom door, must have driven him here for safety.
Too easy Dustie said to himself, as the familiar surge of energy burst forth towards the man. His scream was cut off a half second after it started. A residual echo seemed to reverberate in the air for a few seconds, but was quickly drowned out by the cacophony in the other room. All that remained, of the snitch, was a small pile of quantum energy-infused dust. It was time to feed. All he needed was... What?! the.. his brain started screaming at him.
Something was wrong. Someone else was there with him.

Emmie landed right on target. Decked out in a black glossy full body suit with artificial goggles (it was all eufiber, dontchya know?). She came out of the closet, roataing on her left heel, crouched down and guns leveled. It only took a moment to take in the situation. She could see three men and one woman easily. Thinking that the other two must be out of her line of sight, Emerald the assassin went into action.
The first bullet took the man eating a Chicken Sandwich (who ordered a Chicken Sandwich for room service?) in the chest, right under the arm. He was crumpling instantaneously. The second bullet, from the second gun, took the woman in the arm. Her canned drink went cartwheeling arcoss the room. The woman stumbled down, but was clawing at her gun as she did so.
"How the hell did she get in here?!?" one Federal Agent yelled. The were reacting quickly, but not quickly enough. Emmie pivoted and put two bullets into another man who was diving for cover. Another one dead, she thought.
Two bullets came back at Emmie. One puckered the wall to in front of her. The other creased her arm. That stung, but wasn't inhibiting. Emmie was counting the bullets, and they were two guns shy.
Were are those guy?she cursed silently.
Emerald concentrated and 'ported behind the sofa on the opposite side of the room. She heard more shots going off. The two remaing agents were still firing their government issue 9mm at the closet when Emmie popped up and fired two quick shots.
A bullet took the wounded female agent in the head. End result was totally dead. The bullet from her left handed gun put a bullet in the other agent's shoulder, dropping him in shock.
(Emmie is about three seconds ahead of Dustie) (Teleport 1 Success - sweat!)

Facing this unknown person, Mikita took up a defensive stance. The two of them circled around the room, eyes locked on each other. The first one to flinch, might gain the initiative, but they also might give up their intentions, and the counter attack could prove deadly.
E! Dustie saw her appear suddenly, with pistols in hand. She always come when she needed, he mused with a smile. Unfortunately, the instant he averted his eyes to look at her, the other nova made his move.
A jarring shock racked Dustie's body; his teeth hurt from biting down with every muscle in his head. With the sweet smell of burnt hair in his sinuses, he turned to face the man again. This time, he sent his own wave of energy at the guardian.
It struck the man and he grunted in pain as his clothing shredded into small strips. Small rivulets of blood broke through the skin in places, but that was it. Impossible?! Mikita said to himself in horror as he realized that the man was resistant to his attacks. He hoped that 'E' would have more success. He was not sure that he could survive another attack
((Took 6 bashing. 2 lethal to other nova))

When she grabbed him his heart started racing. 'E' smelled wonderful. He realized that she was going to 'rescue' him. Not something a woman needs to do to a man. Contrary to what he believed about womwn, he was glad that she cared. Only when she kissed him did he understand. She had feelings for him. He could only suspect why such a beautiful woman would see in a mangled man like him. It was power. That, he did have. From now on, he would try and share that feeling of power with her. It was the least he could. When she left, he collapsed to the floor. His body was covered in bruises, and he was tired. He had expended a lot of energy. When 'E' came back, he sat up and eyed her with desire: She had good hips. Hips like that, made for strong healthy children. He hoped she would give him many. "Now what happened? Who was that and did you get the Target?" "The target is dead." Dustie said coldly. "What left of him...is gone now." There was a feeling of loss to Dustbin. To him, it was like the loss of a soul when he could not consume the energetic remains. "I don't know who other was," he said angrily. "No one said there was someone else. He invisible too."

Dustbin became very aroused at her suggestion of opening her eufiber. If he could tear it from her body with his own hands, he would have. A glint in her eyes told him that she was willing. The exposure of her breasts was all he needed to act.
He grabbed her by her arms and sat her on the edge of the altar. Her Eufiber had opened up to just below the naval, and the view of her stomach added to his arousal. For the tall African, 'E' sat on the altar at his groin level. Dustbin had planted himself between her legs. He was not going to let her flee now. In his mind, she was already his. He would take her whether the wanted to or not. It was his right.
His own eufiber opened, exposing skin that was ravaged by disease. His transformation to Demon, did nothing to heal the patches of dead flesh that hung from his mottled physique. The lean muscle underneath the ravaged skin, showed a fit and healthy man, who was more than capable of physical exertion. As more of him was exposed, it was quite apparent, that he was fully functional; his large organ throbbed in arousal.

Her hands and fingers felt like silk, yet suprisingly strong for such petite arms. The caressing of her hands and mouth, forced goosebumps to run up his back and down his arms. He shivered at the combined asault. As if on cue, he reached out with his arm and pushed her flat on the table. With his other arm, he grabbed her thigh and slid her closer to his engorged member. Dustie's stubby, misshaped digits clutched and squeezed her breast. Once she w | | | |
