Felix stood in the middle of the chamber as his mind raced through the complex computer firewall. But every time he thought he was getting through new code activated and he had to start all over again! It was almost as if the computer had a complex AI that was working actively against him, countering his every move. Silver Streak’s lightning blasted the last guard off his feet and into oblivion and Kitsune (or at least her image) entered into the chamber. The real Kitsune ran and leapt up onto the back of the giant robot and was peeking around the corner to make sure there were no hidden surprises first. Princess Starlight shot a laser beam that bounced off the ceiling the strike one of the hidden soldiers but he only grunted and shouted “Damn it, where are they!!!” while one of the others shouted back “Hold your fire! Hold your fire until they make an appearance. For the Doctor! For Victory!!” The Shadow was about the leap at the last soldier below but that man was out!

Outside the Doomsday Robot continued its rampage as its huge speaker system continue to shout out “DESTORY! DESTROY CENTROPOLIS!!!”

GM: Initiative
38 – Felix
24 – Silver Streak
23 – Kitsune
20 – Princess Starlight
19 – The Shadow
15 – Doomsday Robot and Soldiers

[sblock=Rolls]Felix failed to access the computer this round. What system are you trying to access also? That is going to determine the DC of the Tech roll you need.
Silver Streak attacks the last soldier, Toughness save vs. DC 24: 1D20+6 = [9]+6 = 15, failed he is incapacitated.
Kitsune creates and illusion and moves onto the platform of the giant robot.
Princess Starlight shots one of the soldiers, Toughness save vs. DC 17: 1D20+6 = [14]+6 = 20, made it, he is still up.
The Shadow still has an action he can take this round as the soldier is out from Silver Streak’s attack

The soldiers still don’t see anyone so they are Readying their actions to shot the first person through the hatch.
The Doomsday robot continues to move and fire missiles into the area.[/sblock]

Seeing the last guard down, the Shadow started ascending the latter, but would not be able to get by Princess Starlight as it was made for one human sized person at a time...

The Shadow

Round 9

Shadow moved to the ladder where Princess Starlight had climbed. “How many up there, kid?” he asked. “Better let me go first.” His body turned to shadow, making him insubstantial, and then darkness seeped from him, spreading out in a fifteen foot radius around him, blocking out all light.

Once the ladder was clear, Shadow would go up and engage the guards.

From inside the robot, Kitsune heard people shouting. That sounded like the direction to go!

She sent her ghostly double running in ahead of her, and invisibly followed along, heading for the ruckus!
 

The Princess sees The Shadow follow her up the ladder. “How many up there, kid?” he asked.
"Five," she says. "Three to the left and two to the right." She points to the left and right to indicate where they were approximately. "And they seem to be ready to fire at the first person to climb to the top."
“Better let me go first," The Shadow says, and in the glow of her own light she watches the Shadow seem to fade.
"Okay," she replies, flattening against a side wall so he can pass over her. "When you get out, go right. I'll follow with my blinding flash against the guys on the left."

OOC: Delaying action until The Shadow goes.
 

Felix cannot seem to break through the various conflicting and ever updating firewalls of the robots' computer AI and the Silver Streak buzzed around the chamber as he could not get back the Shadow or Princess Starlight in the latter tube. Kitsune's illusion came up behind Felix's stationary form and the 'real' heroine herself remained invisible and entered the interior of the giant robot. The Princess herself, hearing the Shadow, braced as the hero turned into a shadow and passed through her and into the chamber above. This also caused shadows to fill the room and the soldiers fire multiple laser bolt blasts through the form of the Shadow but they are harmless against him... he is only a shadow after all.

Outside the Doomsday robot continued its rampage of destruction, slammed a huge fist into another skyscraper!!

[sblock=Rolls]Felix failed to access the computer this round. Remember I am giving you two rolls a round so you can make another Tech roll this round to do something.
I am assuming Silver Streak and Princess Starlight are Delaying their actions.
The Shadow moves into the chamber and causes Obscure 4.
The agents goggles can see through this so they all shot at the Shadow but their attacks pass through him. They have used their Ready actions and so have acted this round.

The Shadow, Princess Starlight and Silver Streak all still have their actions left, for this round. BUT you can't see through the Shadows Obscure 4. The Princess can try and counter it with her Environmental Control (roll your ranks vs. a DC 14)[/sblock]
