Beyond Freedom (M&M PbP) Issue #1 - Loves Lost?!

Determined to take Athena to the hospital but not wanting to abandon the others Harbinger makes an attempt to contact them. Security wears armor so I assume he may have a radio built into it, I’ll try him. Harbinger thinks to himself. Opening the frequencies on his headset Harbinger tries to contact Security.

“Security, can you read me? This is Harbinger. Athena is hurt badly, I’m going to take her to the Freedom Medical Center. What is your situation?” Harbinger waits a moment for a response, if he does not receive one he will teleport Athena to the hospital.

"I'll see what I can do. I'll take the upper floors, and the more messy ones..."

Winter will look at what Remlok dropped, and search for any clues as to his departure, then coordinate with Jimmy vocally on searching through the building for any wounded, or evidence of missing or damaged things. He is especially interested in any innocents who may be there, or reasons for the villains arrival.

Winter can easily cover the messier areas by floating through debris and rubble, and searching is pretty easy. He'll also go on to other damaged buildings when this one is checked out.
 

Security and Winter look around a bit and down the hall they are in, finding that most of the 4th floor has been smashed, walls have been punched though, desks overturned, etc. Around the corner, the interior of the building looks to be made up of large separated labs, which you can see because of a number of walls have been knocked over, smashed, etc. As they are looking Security hears Harbinger over an open radio telling him about Athena's situation and that he is taking her to the hospital. A quick scan of this floor Security Search roll 7 +11 =18, Winter Search roll 16 +8 =24 turns up no sighs of any additional foes. They do see Jimmy moving through the area at incredible speeds...

Jimmy does a quick search of the 4th floor before heading higher Search roll 12 +4= 16 turns up no bodies or enemies, but also finds a large hole on the east side of the building. Jimmy also run into Security and Winter...

Harbinger listens for Security's reply and then focuses to teleports to Freedom Medical Center. He appears outside the emergency entrance...

Apollo and Ursus are outside with all the rubble and destruction, with 3 unconscious villains. The security guards runs to get help if possible.
 

Apollo looks to Ursus, "Ursus, drag that large villain out into the open I will grab the other two and pile them up together, to make it easier for the authorities to enjoy..."

Apollo grabs Thumper first, then Marguess, and places them away from the rubble, once that is done, he looks to Ursus, "I think that is all of them..."

"I wonder what they were trying to do?" he muses, looking around.

How far is the closest Police Station, and would it be faster for Apollo to go himself at full speed then waiting for the security officers to handle it?
 

nearest FCPD Inc. office is about a mile away. With your super-flight you could get there pretty fast, but getting them to get here might take a while. This compound is fairly large with about 40 or 50 large six to ten story buildings thoughout
 

. . . but also finds a large hole on the east side of the building. Jimmy also run into Security and Winter...

"Hey guys, nothing obvious on the first three floors, I'll keep checking the upper floors," Jimmy said, then paused looking around. "Seems almost like there was destruction here just to hide something, huh?"

Jimmy will move to one of the computer terminals, close his eyes and 'look' into the future (on fast-forward) [using Luck] - trying to pinpoint people discussing in the room something that was missing.

Jimmy focuses on the future and Precognition roll 11 +5 +5 luck =21, "awareness of people involved in a particular event" and sees a man and a woman, dressed in lab coats (Dr. Byrisetty Rajeev and Dr. Yoko Fujita) talking (well more shouting in panic) too a two men in business suit (David Bester, and Donald Mennen) and a woman dressed like the security guards you saw outside (Commander Kara Reedmen). Dr. Rajeev is saying "My god they destroyed so much, but I am almost positive that they took the Chaos Complier... and all our research on it! This could cost us billions!!! We have to recover it..." and then the vision fads.
 

Jimmy shakes himself out of the future and pulls his mind back into the now. He tells Security and Winter, "They stole something called the Chaos Compiler and all of the data on it - whatever that is. It definitely sounds bad."

"Well, I'm off to check the upper floors," he finished with a smile and a shrug, waiting for a few moments to see if they have anything to say before tearing off again.
 

Apollo continued to float and watch over the villains, folding his arms, and not looking happy that not all the villains were dealt with, "Ursus, this will only get worse, i fear before it gets better, there were so many of them... something big is underway. That woman, she knew something, and she needs us to stop the coming cataclysm. That says to me we need to work together..."
 

"So what is this Compiler? I guess we need to try to track them down. Anybody know how to follow the ones who flew or blinked out of here?"

Winter will finish searching, going through carefully to make sure there are no bodies or injured. He will then help guard, or pursue the villains by teleporting if necessary.

[He's also happy to scout with Plant ESP, or actual teleportation...]
