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

[Keia]

OCC: I guess I used Florida's colors then. I was just guessing the colors, but you're right. I'll remove the state from the post earlier to get everything to be correct.

"Suppose you could take one more on your journey?" Jimmy asks the one called Harbinger. What have I gotten myself into? he thought.

 

[Sen Udo-Mal]

Winter, the amorphous shape of yellow-green something floating in the air, heads toward the explosion and the sounds of blaster fire. Concentrating on the living things around him, Winter can get a few glimpses of the scene in front of him... he see what appear to be 4 or 5 security guards hiding behind jeeps or cars firing pulse blasters at a couple of different strange looking people. One flying into vision out of no where, landing on one of the guards and almost squashing him flat. The man is dressed like a street punk but has ridiculously heavy looking shoes on. Another figure that you get a glimpse of is a huge hulking man, who looks to be make out of grey stone. He charges one of the cars that the guards are hiding behind and knocks it out of his way as if brushing a small chair out of the way. Then to your horror he grabs the two guards up in his hands. The guards scream and then burst into flames while the huge guys laughs in glee.

It will take you at least another round to get around the buildings to where this is all happening.

----

Apollo grabs Athena's hand and starts flying in the direction of the explosions. As you get closer you both can hear sporadic blaster fire coming from the streets below. Depending on how you want to approach will determine what you see (want to come in high, low, from around a building? Unless you tell me you are using "spiriting speed" I assume that you are not as you would leave you flat-footed)

---

Security fires up his rockets and flying into the sky, high over head. Looking around he sees smoke coming from where the LAV crashed and what looks to be fire coming from the ground below (Again, unless you tell me you are using "spiriting speed" I assume that you are not as you would leave you flat-footed so it will take you another round to get high overhead to be able to see down between the building very well where the fighting is taking place right now)

Spot roll 6 +2 wis= 8

Harbinger touches Ursus and Jimmy (if you want to, with T-port 10 you can carry 500lbs when teleporting) and they all appears down on the group just past the fence. You all figure that there is a building or two between you and where the blaster fire is coming from. Harbinger you can see maybe 400 feet down the street to another corner if you wish to get closer that way...

 

[Old Fezziwig]

"Harbinger, I'm Ursus. Let's go." He sounds very confident, despite the fact that he has no idea exactly what teleporting entails.

 

[Keia]

More than a little wild eyed, Jimmy feels like little pieces of himself are still up on the rooftop. Okay, a rock star, a woman dressed in his style, a bear, an armored man, a glowing green something that was just a man gone to nature, and a guy that can teleport. What have I gotten myself into? James thought. My parents apparently did stuff like this and I suppose the only way I'm going to get information on what happened to them is by pulling my weight. But I don't think my little talents can compare to what I'm seeing.

"Hi, there," Jimmy said and tried to smile. "I'm James, good to meet you, Ursus, Harbinger. You guys do this stuff alot?"

 

[Old Fezziwig]

"Hi, James. Truth be told, this is all new to me. I spend most of my time trying to avoid people who want to put me in zoos or labs." Bearish smirk. My what big teeth you have. "I'm here because my ex-gir— because an old friend has gone missing."

 

[Keia]

"Huh, a detective I had looking into my past has been missing for a couple of days. Wouldn't it be ironic if their disappearances were related? . . . *pause* . . . (double-take look of realization as brain catches up to situation) Wait a minute! You mean they are related and the woman was warning us about that? Holy crap!" James exclaimed, realizing the call he got was meant for him.

 

[bkmanis]

“Hey James, Ursus. No I’m new to this too.” Harbinger responds to James inquiry. “It does appear that we’re all missing a friend and if you can believe what the mystery lady says they’re all connected somehow.”

Harbinger takes a few seconds to orient himself. “Hold on a second, I think I can get us closer.” Grabbing James and Ursus’ arms again he teleports the 400’ to the corner. “Be careful, we don’t know what’s going on around here.” Harbinger warns the other two. Holding out his hand a pulse blaster appears from out of nowhere. Harbinger then heads for the sound of battle keeping an eye out for any danger.

OOC: This pulse blaster is set to do stun damage only since Harbinger has a choice between stun and lethal.

 

[Victim]

OOC: I should probably have 11 Spot with Super Senses +3.

Security continues his climb, heading towards the battle. Hopefully the security guards wouldn't all dead by the time he got arrived. "Arm Stun. Load Tangle rounds." He needed whoever was responsible alive.

Then to your horror he grabs the two guards up in his hands. The guards scream and then burst into flames while the huge guys laughs in glee.

Seeing this is too much, and Winter steels himself for what will become a lethal battle. Such disregard for life cannot be tolerated.

During the round that he flies towards the scene (going through buildings and other structures if necessary), Winter maintains the darkness around himself and prepares to blast the huge man with a beam of radiation as soon as he gets a clear line of sight. He will try to stay about 30 feet off the ground, and do his best to distract the hulking thing from the security guards.

"Don't think you can get away with that..." he says to himself, approaching before the others have had a chance to get too near.

Winter also scans the area, searching for reinforcements, weapons or other elements of the fight that may interfere.

 

[Tokiwong]

Apollo will approach from on high, perhaps 60 feet above the ground, ready to drop Athena at a safe hieght upon the vile miscreants threatening life and limb...

"So how high can you fall again without sustaining harm?" Apollo remarks.
