Once the group has agreed to help, Lilith leads everyone deeper into the catacombs underneath the city to a small resistance encampment. After quick introductions to other members of the resistance, you are all welcomed without question. Apparently Lilith's trust is good enough for them. You are all packed into seperate crates and in short order are on your way to Von Braun Island. Ghost and Eve are given crates but with their powers may leave the crates easily. The fit inside the crates is tight, and in Brain Freeze's crate, cold. The stay inside the crates seems to be extremely long but they are not that well-made and peepholes exist which allow you to see your surroundings as you are transported to the island. What you see is disheartening. Hopeless, dirty, ragged, skeletal creatures populate the streets and buildings of the city. Gestapo agents are seen as well, harrassing the citizens.
After an indeterminate amount of time, the crates are finally settled inside a gray, circular structure. The crates are easy enough to open, for those that can't simply pass through the sides. In the room, beneath the retractable dome roof, banks of supercomputer, monitors and other scientific equipment line the walls and ladders lead up to catwalk levels that are similarly equipped and ring the interior of the room. Underneath the catwalks, are a pair of metal sliding doors. Dominating the building's interior is a huge, red spherical object connected via cables to teh various scientific instruments along the walls. The sphere pulses with a weird, crimson energy and makes the air itself crackle.
Before any further investigation can take place, a bald, middle-aged man in a white lab coat enters from one of the sliding doors and greets you in a severe German accent. "Guten tag, herr Amerikaners. I am Doktor Vilhelm Rolf, und ve have been expectink you. Ve antizipated ze terrorizts in ze reziztance would strike againzt our Cozmick Enerchy Generator, zo ve had you delivered here, to give you vun look at it, before Die Ubermenschen kill you!" Moments later, a team of supers appears at the door behind the man.
OOC:
Okay, I'll leave it there for a day or so in case anyone has any snappy retorts before we begin combat. There are six supers at the door behind the doctor.
