01<@DeathStar> Team: Warren and whoever else was with him since Sera didn't tell him properly
01<@DeathStar> 6* The elevator music plays as they head up to the server and power rooms for the base
<Xanatos> 6* Xanatos rubs the back of his neck slightly. They never show stuff like this in the holovids usually.
01<@DeathStar> <Erevis> Elevators?
<Kit> 6Megumi keeps dancing to the elevator music
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> Yeah.
01<@DeathStar> 6* The doors begin to open and Erevis pulls Megumi's dancing body close as she peers toward a hallway with two cameras on the left and right walls that go back and forth
<Xanatos> 6* Xanatos keeps to one side as well, glancing out slightly and then back in. Destroy them or avoid them?
01<@DeathStar> 6* Warren hrns; one while one is looking left, the other is looking right; there's a brief moment they both face each other as they move along
01<@DeathStar> <Warren> Erevis, can you use your telekenetics to slow the cameras down while they're facing each other, giving us time to move? <Erevis> I will try
<Xanatos> 6* Xanatos nods. We better bust ass then.
01<@DeathStar> <Warren> Okay, when they begin to face each other, everyone move as fast as they can. Someone carry Erevis so she can focus on slowing them down
<Kit> <Megumi> Time to move Zephy." 6She grabs Zephyr's hands dancing in place
01<@DeathStar> 6* Zephyr nods determinedly, holding her hand and being danced along.
<Xanatos> 6* Xanatos shifts to lift Erevis up.
01<@DeathStar> 6* Erevis gives him a smile, then closes her eyes, focusing; the two cameras begin to face each other
01<@DeathStar> <Warren> Now
<Xanatos> 6* Xanatos tenses and then begins to dash for the opposite end of the hallway, hoping his timing is good enough to hit right as they face each other.
01<@DeathStar> 6* Warren shuffles forward quickly
01<@DeathStar> 6* Zephyr begins to move quickly while holding Megumi's hands; the cameras begin to shift slower, grinding sounds as they want to go faster but some force isn't letting them
<Kit> 6Megumi giggles as she moves in synch with Zephyr
01<@DeathStar> 6* Xan, Meg, prepare yourself with the running OG
01<@DeathStar> 6* Up, Up, Up, Up, Up, Up, Up, Up, Up
01<@DeathStar> 5
01<@DeathStar> 4
<Xanatos> dddddddd
01<@DeathStar> 3
01<@DeathStar> 2
01<@DeathStar> 1
01<@DeathStar> -0-
01<@DeathStar> 6* Megumi trips and falls, and Xanatos doesn't run fast enough; the cameras spot them and alarms go off
01<@DeathStar> 6* Warren turns, hisses, and fires at the cameras, destroying them
<Kit> 6Megumi sulks as she gets up, apologising to Zephyr
01<@DeathStar> 6* Zephyr just hugs her and hurries; Warren works on openig the door, but the alarms have sealed it shut; there's a control panel blinking red next to it
<Xanatos> 6* Xanatos lets out a sigh. Looks like I'm out of shape.
01<@DeathStar> 6* Erevis gets out of his arms, peering at the locked door. Warren hisses, epering at Megumi
01<@DeathStar> <Warren> Can you destroy the door?
<Kit> <Megumi> Meow? Probably.
01<@DeathStar> <Warren> Then do it
<Kit> 6Megumi jerks back, sulking again, then brings up her hands, focusing
01<@DeathStar> 6* The elevator begins to ding as enemy soldiers arrive
01<@DeathStar> 6* Zephyr shifts to protect Megumi, forming her guns and firing at the elevator as the doors open. Warren turns to do the same
<Xanatos> 6* Xanatos shifts around and ducks down to make his hitbox smaller, he has his pistol out to aim for the elevator. They'll like flash and attack.
<Xanatos> NRP: likely.
<Kit> 6Megumi brings her hand back, then merowls, taking a step and slamming her fist into the door
01<@DeathStar> 6* Erevis stands and waits; the soldiers are struck by Warren and Zephyr, crying out; a grenade is thrown down the hallway toward them
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> Erevis toss that back!
01<@DeathStar> 6* The door cracks in a few places; Zephyr turns and forms a tiny version of her bustah gun. "Minigoon bustah!" 6* She fires into the door, breaking it apart due to the damage Megumi inflicted. Erevis tosses the grenade toward the elevator with her psionics, then moves through
01<@DeathStar> 6* Warren shifts and leaps back through the hole as the grenade blows up at the elevator
<Xanatos> 6* Xanatos pulls his pistols up and dives through after Warren.
01<@DeathStar> 6* As they enter the new room, they would see several computers and terminals up; men at their stations begin to rise, mostly computer geeks and people, but there are guns on the tables near them. One that looks suaver than most geeks reaches for his
<Kit> 6Megumi spends less time to focus this time and double palm pushes the door where its busted
<Kit> <Megumi> Bad idea!" 6She chimes, pointing at the one reaching for a gun
01<@DeathStar> 6* Zephyr leaps through after Megumi; the geek pauses, eyeing Megumi oddly
<Xanatos> 6* Xanatos rolls up to his feet and aims. We let 'em go?
01<@DeathStar> 6* Zephyr shifts to help seal the door with her double palm push to keep the the elevator soldiers from entering right away, then she grabs a table and strains to drag it to put in front of the door
01<@DeathStar> 6* Warren switches to stun, then fires at the geeks and knocks them out one by one
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> That works. 6He shifts to move and help Zephyr.
<Kit> 6Megumi bows to the geek. 1"Thank you humans! Not like hurting."
01<@DeathStar> 6* Zephyr smiles at xanatos once they have it pushed against; Warren steps over to a terminal and hooks a datapad into the server to hack it and bring the station to it's knees
01<@DeathStar> 6* In the corner, a gun turrent slowly lowers to aim them
<Xanatos> 6* Xanatos peers around slightly to be sure they've covered everything, does he see the turret!?
<Kit> 6Megumi reaches over and grabs Zephyr's right hand, aiming her gun at it, then rapidly taps her index finger like an old gunslinger
01<@DeathStar> 6* Xanatos would; Zephyr squeaks as she gets used as a weapon, firing blasts at the turrent and damaging it. A second one lowers to aim them
<Kit> 6Megumi rolls back to back with Zephyr and aims her other hand, repeating like it was a game
<Xanatos> 6* Xanatos pulls up his pistol to fire shots for the secondo ne.
01<@DeathStar> 6* Zephyr makes more noises as she's used; Xanatos and Megumi destroy the second as the third and fourth lower. Erevis tilts her head curiously as she watches
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> What the fuck? 6He shifts to fire for the fourth one.
<Kit> 6Megumi adjusts both of Zephyr's hands and then starts tickling her.
01<@DeathStar> 6* Zephyr begins to jerk and laugh, firing rapidly at the turrents; both three and four get taken out by the three. Zephyr huffs afterwards, eyeing Megumi
01<@DeathStar> <Zephyr> F-From now on I'm manifesting you your own guns
<Kit> 6Megumi claps, laughing.
01<@DeathStar> <Warren> Hrn, good job
<Kit> <Megumi> Eh? But Zephy uses guns better.
01<@DeathStar> <Zephyr> Well, true
<Kit> 6Megumi swipes the air with kung fu moves. 1"Megumi better with hands!"
<Kit> <Megumi> Can knock people out! Guns hurt." 6She sulks.
<Xanatos> 6* Xanatos shifts over to place his ear towards the door and try to hear what's going on out on the other side.
01<@DeathStar> 6* He'd hear movement and hushed tones he can't make out
01<@DeathStar> <Zephyr> W-Well, ye-yah...but I'm only good at guns..
<Kit> <Megumi> I know!" 6She rubs her cheek on Zephyr's.
<Xanatos> 6* Xanatos takes a step back and hmms, he adjusts his eye to try a look at the heat signatures on the other side.
01<@DeathStar> 6* There's six soldiers, kneeling and looking as if they are planting something
01<@DeathStar> 6* Zephyr smiles softly
<Xanatos> 6* Xanatos pauses and takes a few steps back. Oh shit I think they're going to blow the door open.
<Kit> <Megumi> Ehh!? With bomb?
01<@DeathStar> <Erevis> That is not good - right?
01<@DeathStar> <Zephyr> I---we better stand clear
<Kit> <Megumi> Move bomb Revi!!
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> That's not good at all! Megumi can you try and reinforce it with Crystal?
01<@DeathStar> 6* Zephyr pulls Megumi behind a terminal. Warren hrns. <Warren> It won't be big - they would damage the equipment in here
01<@DeathStar> 6* Erevis moves like Zephyr, then tries to focus. "I cannot...I would need to see the object since it does not have thoughts to focus on."
<Kit> <Megumi> Easy! Xan see, use Xan see!
<Xanatos> 6* Xanatos blinks. I-just see them.
<Xanatos> 6* Xanatos shifts to prop up a table and gets behind it kneeling, he pulls up his pistols and aims towards the door.
01<@DeathStar> 6* Erevis considers, then closes her eyes, focusing on Xanatos' thoughts and visions; she tries moving the people away from the door by flinging them down the hallway. Afterwards she pants from the exhertion
<Xanatos> 6* Xanatos reaches out to pull her down behind cover with him. Nice work darlin.
01<@DeathStar> <Warren> I am only 50% done; they will try again - and soon
01<@DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
01<@DeathStar> Location: Team Cheryl
01<@DeathStar> 6* The lab door has a camera over the door, with a lock
<Xanatos> 6* Marcus rubs his shoulder as he stares, this not his area of expertise.
<Seraphna> * Jonas looks to Dawn. "Got some magic up your sleeve?"
01<@DeathStar> 6* X peers quietly
<Kit> <Dawn> Hm. The camera is the first issue. No one knows we've made it this far yet.
<Kit> <Dawn> I doubt i can remote hack it in here. The walls will be shielded from interference.
<Seraphna> Jonas> "Aren't we inside the walls? Can't you... I dunno, take over the camera itaelf?"
01<@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl kneels, frowning
01<@DeathStar> <X> We should attack directly
<Xanatos> 6Marcus rubs his nose. X can you open a ripple so that the camera is actually viewing down a bit down the hallway?
<Seraphna> Jonas> "Rippling the camera so it's pointing out somewhere else, good thinkin."
01<@DeathStar> <X> I will try. 6* She opens one in front of the camera, though if they paying attention, they will see the ripple form briefly
01<@DeathStar> 6* The camera now views into the floor of the elevator behind them
<Kit> <Dawn> Ingenious really. Good thinking, Marky.
01<@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl gives him a grin and nod
<Xanatos> 6Marcus glances around, tilting his head. No alarm...yet. 6He glances at being called Marky but doesn't say much.
01<@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl shifts forward and waits for Dawn to hack the door
01<@DeathStar> <X> ... 6* She hmphs a little at no one congratulating her
<Seraphna> JOnas> "Let's move and hope they didn't catch on." *he nods and motions at the door* "Your turn Dawnie."
<Seraphna> * Jonas peers at X, then pats her head.
<Kit> <Dawn> Shush. Mimicry is flattery, but I don't need it." 6He holds up his datapad to it, creating a wireless link and accesses its security protocols.
<Xanatos> 6Marcus quietly eases X so she doesn't kill Jonas at his touching.
01<@DeathStar> 6* X goes to react, but then pauses at Marcus
01<@DeathStar> 6* Once Dawn is prepared to face a nefarious OG, type in Rdy
<Kit> rdy
01<@DeathStar> 6* Up, Up, Up, Up, Up, Up, Up, Up, Up, Up, Up
01<@DeathStar> 5
01<@DeathStar> 4
01<@DeathStar> 3
01<@DeathStar> 2
<Kit> ddddddddddd
01<@DeathStar> 1
01<@DeathStar> -0-
01<@DeathStar> 6* The door unlocks
01<@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl shifts and opens it, peering in slowly, using a mirror on her tactical arm to peer in
<Kit> <Dawn> Alright, everyone in.
01<@DeathStar> <Cheryl> ... 12 scientists. 6* She whispers quietly, then begins to gesture - they seem to be spread out in groups of 3
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Good work Dawn. 6He says quietly, then pulls out his shotgun. Stun or kill?
<Seraphna> * Jonas holds up a hand to Dawn, then readies some stun grenades, he holds them out.
01<@DeathStar> <Cheryl> Kill 'em all
01<@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl activates her whip
<Seraphna> * Jonas pauses, looking at Cheryl.
<Kit> <Dawn> Is that really necessary?
<Seraphna> Jonas> "...Actually, yes, it is." *he puts them away*
01<@DeathStar> 6* cheryl eyes Dawn and Jonas. "Even if we stunned them, once we destroyed the base they would likely die. If we don't, they'll get away with the knowledge they learned here and make more shit for us to step in
<Seraphna> * Jonas pulls out normal grenades. "They experiment on kids."
01<@DeathStar> 6* X peers at them all, curiously, then forms a scythe
<Xanatos> 6Marcus glances at the scythe and pauses. I want one.
<Kit> <Dawn> ..." 6He peers at Jonas, frowning, then looks to X. 1"Let's make it silent. Can you form six ripples close together in the center of them?
01<@DeathStar> 6* X hands him the scythe, then forms another one
01<@DeathStar> <X> No
<Xanatos> 6Marcus puts the shotgun away and oohs at the scythe.
<Kit> <Dawn> What's your max?
01<@DeathStar> <X> Considering the energy output used so far, and current output into weapons being maintained, I could make 3.
<Xanatos> <Marcus> We need to save them for emergencies.
<Kit> <Dawn> Understood." 6He begins sliding covert throwing knives, spraypainted black out of his clothing.
<Seraphna> * Jonas frowns and pulls out a silenced gun. "You want it quiet then, alright."
<Xanatos> 6Marcus readies the scythe and nods to Cheryl that he's ready.
01<@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl holds up three fingers.
01<@DeathStar> 6* Then two fingers.
<Kit> <Dawn> Does that trick only work with scythes, sweetie, or is there another of you around?" 6He smiles at X.
01<@DeathStar> 6* Then her bird finger
01<@DeathStar> <X> I could create a duplicate
<Kit> <Dawn> Sounds lovely." 6He shifts to get ready.
<Kit> <Dawn> Marky's a lucky guy.
01<@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl then makes a fist, rushing in; she takes on the nearest group since she's melee, leaping in and whipping out for their throats
01<@DeathStar> 6* X steps in, then throws her scythe like a boomerang for a second group, cutting off one's head
<Xanatos> 6Marcus shifts and moves inside taking the closest group opposite of Cheryl, slicing out.
01<@DeathStar> 6* It spins and comes back to her, taking another's head off. Each group has 4.
<Seraphna> * Jonas moves in after the girls and fires shots for one group, farthest out since he has a gun.
<Kit> 6Dawn follows her quickly, leaping up onto the desks and vaulting over, going for the throats of the next closest before throwing hte knifes for those furthest away
01<@DeathStar> *er, 3
01<@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl breaks the neck of one, then slams her tactical fist into another one. Jonas begins to shoot up the scientists in the back, taking out two easily, while a knife takes out the third. So far only 5 remain, 1 with Cheryl, 1 with X, 2 with Marcus, and 1 in the back
01<@DeathStar> 6* The one in the back runs for an alarm
<Seraphna> * Jonas aims and fires for the one in the back.
01<@DeathStar> 6* Jonas shoots the man in the back and he falls forward dramatically slow
01<@DeathStar> 6* X gets her scythe as it returns; one scientist grabs a flask and throws it at Dawn
<Seraphna> * Jonas shifts his aim towards the man's arms, ready to fire if he dramatically tries to grab for the alarm.
<Xanatos> 6Marcus swings out wide trying to get both of his.
<Kit> 6Dawn reaches out to catch the flask gently, blinking. 1"Seriously?"
01<@DeathStar> 6* Marcus cuts into the two men next to him, dropping him; Cheryl flips and takes out her last one, leavig only the one who threw the flask
01<@DeathStar> <Scientist> I--I--s-spare me
<Xanatos> <Marcus> So who you been experimenting on?
01<@DeathStar> <Scientist> W-We don't experiment on people i-in lab 2. W-We just m-make..w-weapons
<Kit> <Dawn> Some of those weapons bear remarkable resemblance to human beings, don't they?
<Xanatos> 6Marcus pauses and slowly moves to step out and check what lab they're in.
<Seraphna> * Jonas shifts his aim on the survivor and raises his brow. "Seem like people to me."
01<@DeathStar> <Scientist> N-Not in this lab!!
<Seraphna> Jonas> "What 'weapon' were you working on then?"
01<@DeathStar> 6* Marcus would see lots of chemicles, a cold storage area, and vials filled with stuff and labeled
01<@DeathStar> 6* The scientist pales, licking his lips
<Kit> <Dawn> Marcus, take this knife and keep your eye on him. If he moves, he dies. I'll check the specifics.
01<@DeathStar> <Scientist> A-Are you looking for a-aparticular subject? M-Maybe in another lab? I-I could help you get there
<Xanatos> 6Marcus glances at the labels first before moving to the cold sotrage area.
<Seraphna> * Jonas moves over and shifts the man into a pin, grabbing his hand. "Answer the question."
01<@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl peers; the labeled have various names that don't sound cheerful. Cold Death, Quick Death, Invisible Death
01<@DeathStar> 6* The scientist cries out painfully. "Chemical weapons!"
<Kit> 6Dawn moves over and looks himself, peering at the descriptions and chemical information
01<@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl makes a face, then moves toward a door in the corner, opening it and seeing another elevator
01<@DeathStar> 6* The chemicals are labeled 'highly contagious, do not open except in safe environments.'
01<@DeathStar> 6* There's hazmet suits in the corner
<Kit> <Dawn> He's coming with us.
<Seraphna> Jonas> "You know, I find that shit even worse then human experimentation."
01<@DeathStar> <X> Can I kill him later?
01<@DeathStar> <Scientist> i-I don't kill people! I only make things!
<Kit> <Dawn> Perhaps, depends on his cooperativeness, X. You can inject him with one of these.
<Xanatos> <Marcus> That's like saying it's okay to make a bullet because you're not the one firing it.
<Kit> <Dawn> We'll see how fast he makes an antivirus for it. If not, he dies. Sounds fun, hm?
<Seraphna> * Jonas points the gun into the man's temple. "Why're we keeping him again?"
01<@DeathStar> 6* The man pales at the injection line
01<@DeathStar> <Scientist> P-Please..t-tell me what--y-you're looking for...
<Xanatos> <Marcus> The Dark One.
01<@DeathStar> 6* His pants grow wet from pissing himself.
01<@DeathStar> 6* The scientist looks at Marcus. "Lab 4! T-Take my key card - use the elevator there to lab 3, then another elevator to 4!"
01<@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl walks back in. "Door's security is tighter then last."
<Xanatos> <Marcus> He has a keycard. 6He motions.
<Kit> <Dawn> Thank you, Mr. Scientist. You're still coming with us.
<Kit> 6Dawn downloads the data for the varius weapons and their research files.
<Seraphna> Jonas> "Mm, his card might need a bio signature... we could jsut take his hand. You're bein awful nice to a guy who just tried to give you a wicked cold, Dawn."
<Kit> <Dawn> Of course. He's being cooperative. He's bought himself more time to research the antivirii but I wouldn't deprive X of entertainment.
01<@DeathStar> 6* The scientist trembles. Cheryl walks over, feels into his pocket, and grabs it; she makes a face at the smell
01<@DeathStar> 6* X smiles
<Kit> 6Dawn puts his datapad away. 1"Hope he works quickly.
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Move along. You're going to get us in. 6He motions.
<Seraphna> Jonas> "Buddy, you make one wrong move, X won't get her entertainment, I'll show you how bad lead poisoning can get." *he lets the man up*
<Kit> <Dawn> If you pre-emptively harm him in any way I'll personally dissect you, Jonas. You're far too triggerhappy.
<Seraphna> Jonas> "Don't recall shooting anyone out of turn, darlin."
<Seraphna> * Jonas smiles after he pushes the man on, staying behind him.
01<@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl eyes them both, then walks ahead; the man stumbles along meekly, and X follows
01<@DeathStar> <X> I have been taught 4567 ways to kill someone
01<@DeathStar> <X> 3921 of them are extremely painful
<Kit> 6Dawn doesn't reply preparing to go. 1"Where were we... ah, yes. So you're against your little sister dating, Cheryl?"
<Xanatos> 6* Marcus walks along with X, holding the scythe back out so she doesn't have to maintain it anymore.
01<@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl eyes Dawn
01<@DeathStar> <Cheryl> I said before if it's with Megumi I'm fine with it; they're both naive and children.
<Kit> <Dawn> I see. What about you?" 6He smiles, stepping into the elevator.
<Seraphna> * Jonas grumbles a bit and rolls his eyes.
01<@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl eyes him and doesn't respond, hitting Lab 3 once all are on
01<@DeathStar> <Man> U-Um, I-I have a little s-sister, t-ttoo
01<@DeathStar> <Cheryl> Shut up
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Does your sister know that you're an evil, evil man?
01<@DeathStar> 6* The scientist peers down meekly
<Seraphna> Jonas> "Really, did you go to college thinking, 'One day I'm going to create shit that kills innocent people'?"
<Kit> <Dawn> ..." 6He peers at Cheryl quietly.
01<@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl steps out when the door opens, eyeing another camera over a door
01<@DeathStar> 6* However, it seems powered down
<Kit> <Dawn> Is that 'I'm not available?' or 'Unwilling?'
01<@DeathStar> <Man> I---
<Xanatos> 6* Marcus points up. Think it's a trick?
<Seraphna> Jonas> "Drop it Dawn." *he eyes the camera* "THe others might have done something... should we contact them?"
01<@DeathStar> 6* Chery's comm beeps and she touches her ear, then lowers her hand after a moment. "We got 10 mins before this place blows up."
<Seraphna> * Jonas groans. "Awww shit. We need to hurry. Caution to the wind, boss lady?"
01<@DeathStar> 6* The scientist pales. Cheryl pauses, then adds. <Cheryl> And they took down the security -w e only have to deal with guards
01<@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl steps forward, swiping the card key and opening the lab door; the scientist hastily speaks.
01<@DeathStar> <Scientist> T-There are robots on this lab floor - big robots with big guns
<Seraphna> Jonas> "We've got a mission, are they run by security or autonomous?"
<Xanatos> 6* Marcus frowns and pulls out the two ripple blades from his back and moves forward, glancing around carefully.
<Kit> <Dawn> Alright. I'll wait until the mission's over. Sorry. I usually work alone so I can be a little chatty-- Cheryl.
01<@DeathStar> 6* X hmphs at him not use her scythe
<Kit> 6Dawn shoves the scientist forward. 1"After you, oniichan."
01<@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl eyes the man make a scream of fear as he's shoved in; scientists peer over from working on giant robots, and they quickly begin to try to activate them
01<@DeathStar> 6* The robots stand about 10 feet tall, with large gatling guns
<Kit> 6Dawn throws a pair of knives for those at mid-range, then holds out his hands to keep the farthest from continuing to work
<Seraphna> * Jonas raises a brow, he switches out the gun for a sizable rifle with a large lower cylinder. He aims the rifle at one group of the scientists and launches a grenade at them.
<Xanatos> <Marcus> I want you to conserve the energy. 6* Marcus says as he leaps forward, slashing out at enemies when he gets close to enemies.
01<@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl dashes in with a roar as the robots come to life; they manage to kill some scientists off before they can. The battle has begun
01<@DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
01<@DeathStar> 6* Warren tchs when he shuts off the power to the station that a self-destruct activates
01<@DeathStar> <Warren> A failsafe device. 6* At that moment, there's a loud explosion against the door that blows it open - apparantly they used a rocket launcher, since they see no bomb fragments.
01<@DeathStar> 6* Warren stumbles, touching his comm to inform Cheryl. Erevis makes a noise and falls over from the explosion and Zephyr flops onto her ass
<Xanatos> 6* Xanatos jerks and kneels down some to shield his head before rising back up to begin firing for the door.
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> Not good. 6He calls out.
01<@DeathStar> 6* Xan shoots at nothing outside
01<@DeathStar> 6* Suddenly another rocket flies into the room
01<@DeathStar> 6* Zephyr shifts on top of Megumi to protect her, aiming and firing at the rocket; it explodes, knocking Erevis back down again with a ungh. She sits up, dazed. <Erevis> Golly.
<Kit> 6Megumi jerks, flailing under Zephyr
01<@DeathStar> 6* With their ears ringing from the explosion and smoke filling the room, they'd notice the terminals damaged and sparking
01<@DeathStar> 6* Zephyr sits up with Megumi, hoping she protected Megumi's sensitive ears enough
<Xanatos> 6* Xanatos lets out a noise of curses, he pulls a device otu and throws and explosive otu into the hall, detonating it.
01<@DeathStar> 6* Another boom and rattling outside. No more rockets fly in.
01<@DeathStar> 6* Warren rolls outside, and eyes the destroyed hallway, along wit hdead soldiers, and a damaged rocket launcher that exploded, too. The elevator looks damaged.
01<@DeathStar> 6* Zephyr rises unsteadily and helps Megumi up. Erevis stands up, protectively holding her stomach as she moves into the hallway
<Xanatos> 6* Xanatos hops over to table to step out afterwards he pauses and glances around. Shit. That did more than I thought it would.
<Kit> <Megumi> Wahh! Barely hear!
01<@DeathStar> 6* Zephyr shifts to kiss Megumi's cheek, focusing her healing toward her ears
01<@DeathStar> <Warren> We use the elevator shaft then
01<@DeathStar> 6* Warren steps into the damaged elevator and fires into the ceiling to drop the hatch
<Xanatos> 6* Xanatos lets out a whistle and moves over, kneeling to hold his hands out as an extra step to help everyone up.
01<@DeathStar> 6* Erevis curtseys and uses Xan to climb, comically stepping on his head a little
01<@DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
01<@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl pants, eyeing the dismantled robots - sadly it took about 5 mins, leaving them with five. She swipes a keycard from a dead scientist and hurries for the elevator
01<@DeathStar> 6* X drags their viral scientist along by his leg
<Kit> <Dawn> Less than ideal, but can't complain.
<Seraphna> * Jonas moves after her, keeping an eye out for any more little surprises.
<Xanatos> 6* Marcus slides into the elevator. We're so fucked.
01<@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl hits the button to lower them down to the next floor, then once out swipes the keycard to open lab 4
01<@DeathStar> 6* As the doors open, they would see several guards with guns, aiming at them, and the scientists having fled. Billy is tied up to a wall in metallic chains, uttering curses in her child form, then pauses
01<@DeathStar> <Billy> Oh, heeeeey, you guys FINALLY showed up.
<Kit> <Dawn> Are you Billy?
01<@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl jerks low as the guards fire with their guns; X uses her scientist to shield herself and Marcus. He dies
01<@DeathStar> <Billy> Billy. Andrea. Dark One. Cutie. All of the above
<Xanatos> 6* Marcus shifts his shotgun out and leans around the scientist to fire a blast for some of the guards.
<Seraphna> * Jonas jerks down low too, covring Cheryl. Hoping his body armor helps.
01<@DeathStar> 6* Marcus blasts a few, but they seem heavily armored. Cheryl tchs, grabbing a grenade from Jonas' pants, and then throws it in at them
<Kit> <Dawn> ... X, we really could have used him... sigh. I'll have to outsource the antivirii development.
01<@DeathStar> <Cheryl> Fire in the hole.
01<@DeathStar> <X> I apologize.
01<@DeathStar> <X> Shall I Grab another one?
<Seraphna> Jonas> "Insert dirty remark about things in my pants."
01<@DeathStar> 6* The grenade explodes, scattering the four soldiers; they all seem alive, but are struggling to their feet
<Xanatos> 6* Marucs tchs and shifts his back around to cover himself and X.
<Seraphna> * Jonas turns and starts firing with his rifle at the recovering soldiers.
01<@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl rises and dashes in, taking one soldier and smashes a coiled whip fist into his face, breaking his face armor
01<@DeathStar> 6* Jonas' blasts hit the heavily plated men, knocking them off balance. One grabs a grenade
<Xanatos> 6* Marcus moves around after the explosion goes off and gets in close to the one with a grenade, aiming to fire the shotgun for him.
<Kit> <Dawn> If possible, X. Thank you." 6He peers up at Billy. 1"There a shortcut to getting you down? I don't have metalcutters."
01<@DeathStar> <Billy> Ripple them in half?
01<@DeathStar> 6* Marcus shoots the one with the grenade and he drops it between him and the others. Cheryl leaps away from the men. "Shoot it!"
<Seraphna> * Jonas shoots the grenade.
<Kit> <Dawn> True. X, do you mind?"
<Xanatos> 6* Marcus leaps back from teh grenade.
01<@DeathStar> 6* X nods once, opening a ripple to shield Marcus and redirect the explosion at the sides of the metal platting so it doesn't hit X. The men blow up, and she takes out half the metallic covering
01<@DeathStar> 6* One soldier, still alive, crawls along the floor toward a desk
<Kit> 6Dawn hurtles a knife at the soldier.
<Xanatos> 6* Marcus stands upright and nods to her, then moves in with the ripple blades and moves to cut the chains off Billy. Did you miss me kiddo?
01<@DeathStar> 6* X then walks forward, twists, and cuts the other half with her scythe, letting it disperse as Billy drops down; she is dressed in only a lab gown, making faces
<Seraphna> * Jonas fires at the soldier.
01<@DeathStar> 6* X nods at Marcus beating her to it
01<@DeathStar> 6* Billy eyes him, thinking. "Hmmm, maybe"
01<@DeathStar> 6* Jonas shoots him but he keeps crawling
<Seraphna> * Jonas rushes over to put a boot to the man's head. "Give it up!"
01<@DeathStar> <Billy> It depends; do you feel bad for leaving me captured for over a year
<Xanatos> 6* Marcus winks at X and then lets out a laugh, kneeling to lift Billy up. I feel pretty terrible.
01<@DeathStar> 6* The man grunts in pain
01<@DeathStar> <Billy> Good; I expect you to grovel and give me things. 6* She then looks serious. "LEt's get out of here. I hate this place." <Cheryl> We got 1 minute
<Seraphna> * Jonas puts the boot into the man's back and aims down, firing at the back of the man's neck execution style. "Yeah, let's go."
<Xanatos> <Marcus> X can you open a ripple up to the hanger?
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Use some of my energy if you need too.
01<@DeathStar> <X> I will try. 6* She focuses, and a ripple opens; smaller than normal, but enough even Marcus can dive through if at the right angle. She looks strained, her pain scrunched in pain. Billy fuus. <Billy> I have too many drugs in me to help
01<@DeathStar> 6* The soldier is finally killed; 10 credits fall off him
<Xanatos> 6* Marcus motions. Everyone get through now.
01<@DeathStar> 6* Billy looks around in disgust; her arm has many needle marks on it, like she were a druggie
01<@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl nods and dives through gracefully
<Seraphna> * Jonas moves after Cheryl.
<Xanatos> <Marcus> It's okay Billy, I won't let this happen ever again. 6He moves over to the ripple and holds Billy through for someone on the otherside to grab.
<Kit> 6Dawn follows the two, rubbing his forehead slightly.
<Seraphna> * Jonas grabs Billy on the other side. "hello little lady."
01<@DeathStar> 6* X begins to weaken
01<@DeathStar> 6* Billy eyes Jonas. "Who are YOU?"
<Xanatos> 6* Marcus grabs X and sends her throug before shifting to leap through himself, hoping he doesn't shave some of his ass off.
01<@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl rushes for the shuttle, spotting Waren and the others already there, having it prepped
<Seraphna> Jonas> "The new guy. Jonas."
<Kit> <Dawn> A creep with a gun.
<Seraphna> * Jonas rushes after Cheryl, carrying Billy.
01<@DeathStar> 6* X makes a noise and rolls on the other side; as Marcus dives, it vanishes, taking the sole of his boots away
<Seraphna> Jonas> "At least I wear men's clothing."
<Xanatos> 6* Xanatos drums his fingers on the controls. Running out of time.
01<@DeathStar> 6* Billy hangs like a limp doll
01<@DeathStar> <Warren> 30 seconds
01<@DeathStar> 6* Erevis peers from the back, calling out. "They arecoming."
<Xanatos> 6Marcus lets out a whistle and lifts X up, running for the shuttle. Move it!
01<@DeathStar> 6* X nods, rushing as best she can; Cheryl leaps on, then Jonas, then MArcus/Billy and Dawn
01<@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl hits the ramp close button with her fist
<Xanatos> 6* Xanatos glances over his shoulder and hits the thrusters forward to get them out of there.
<Kit> <Dawn> What's the clothing have to do with anything?
01<@DeathStar> 6* Erevis holds onto a chair; Zephyr holds onto Megumi, closing her eyes
<Xanatos> 6* Marcus lets out a sigh as he eyes his shoe. Well there goes that shoe.
<Seraphna> * Jonas sets Billy down and takes a seat.
01<@DeathStar> 6* As they zoom out, Xanatos must pass the final OG to get away in time as the base explodes, hurling asteroids at them. Type RDY when you are RDY
<Xanatos> RDY
01<@DeathStar> 6* Right, Right, Left, Left, Up, Up, Down, Down, Right, Left, Up, Down, Down, Up, Left, Right
01<@DeathStar> 5
01<@DeathStar> 4
01<@DeathStar> 3
<Xanatos> llrrdduulrduudrl
01<@DeathStar> 2
01<@DeathStar> 1
01<@DeathStar> -0-
01<@DeathStar> 6* They escape the asteroid field and dodge all the incoming asteorids, zooming to safety and Earth
01<@DeathStar> -PREMATURE END-
<Kit> 6Dawn picks Billy up onto his lap and holds her as they jostle about to make sure she doesn't bounce around all drugged up
