Penthouse
You manage to touch Mia's leg and try to make her blind. You feel her resist and push your borrowed powers and feel them take hold. You whip the chains about and they wrap around something. You hear her stumble to the ground.

"Clever boy," she says. "But I don't need to see to do this!"

She kips up and dives forward, driving the sword through your body. You hear it chink off the floor as the pain lances through you and you wish you were unconscious.

You hit Mia with a touch attack on the leg and succeed in your trip. She fails her save and responds by driving the sword through you. You take another lethal hit and are disabled. You can stop using your power on her or keep it on for one round and have your condition change to dying.

Crystal Palace Foyer
"I'm sorry," the manager says, and you hear a click. The guards immediately get up, watching you intently. "This is a private building. We do not let just anyone disturb our tenants privacy. Unless you can provide me with a good reason to allow you to disturb Miss Toan and Mr. Murphy, you will not be gaining access to the stairs or elevator."

John walks in as well. You all notice a shimmering field of energy coming from the ceiling and extending to the floor, just in front of the security guards and just past the scanning devices, blocking access to the elevators and likely the stairwells. It was not there a few moments before.

Vincent's attempt at diplomacy failed with a result of a -1. Even blue skinned demon men are biased against the goat boy. It's actually because you gave him no good reason to help, but the goat boy thing sounds better.

Outside the Crystal Palace
Michelle shoots upward, Sanjay trailing behind. Tara zips upwards beside Sanjay, wings thrumming. Rebound inflates and bounces once, twice then BOOM! You hear a small explosive sound and a round streak zips past Sanjay and Tara, closing on Michelle and the roof. He manages to land just on the edge of the roof, just as Michelle gets to the penthouse windows.

You can't see inside. The surface is darkly reflective, obscuring your sight within. There is ferrous metal in the surrounding superstructure, but what effect yanking on that would have you do not know.

Rebound peeks over the ledge of the roof. "There's a door up here, and a helicopter!"

The G-Spot
Johan splits up (heh). One double finds the fire alarm easily. The sudden alarm only panics the already paniced crowd further, sending them in a frenzy to get to various exits. Pulling the alarm has the other effect of shutting down the music completely and activating normal lighting. Despite the activity, he gets quite a show watching the stage before the women take for the back.

Upstairs, the oriental woman looks at Raisa with a faint smile. "You need not fight us. You should just submit." The suggestion sounds like an exceedingly good idea.

Sho uses mind control on Raisa. Raisa and Sho make an opposed roll. Raisa uses Will save plus a roll and gets a 15. She uses a re-roll and gets a 20. She is under the control of Sho who's opposed roll resulted in a 23.

Loki is up.

OOC: Yes, I will use HP to reroll (something tells me I'm gonna need it....)

If Successfull: Raisa will go for the bitch, climbling over the table and the unconscoius goon on it (1/2 action movement) and punch her as hard as she can in the face. (1/2 action punch)

If Unsuccessull: Raisa will submit.... like she has a choice.
 

OOC: I'm hoping they (Rebound, Sanjay, and Michelle) perpetrated their little jaunt around the back of the building, correct? :-D Assuming such...

"Rebound," X12 calls up, with a bit of fear in his voice, "can you possibly bounce us up there one at a time?"

Great, lets disable the chopper while we are waiting for the others. Michelle tells him as she floats up towards the roof.

How did you get up here so fast? Do you have a rocket pack attached to your body?
 

Outside the Crystal Palace
X12 hears Rebound's voice crackle over the built in communicator in the suit. "Sorry, I can't carry anyone without a good chance of an extremely painful death for the passenger!"

To Michelle he answers, "Well, actually...." and turns to show off a rocket on his belt.

As Michelle moves to disable the helicopter, the creaking of the metal draws a surprised shout and an angry man storms around the front of the helicopter.

"What the heck are you doing to my helicopter!? You get away from that!" He's dressed in a grease stained overall. "That's Crystal Palace property!"

You notice the helicopter does in fact have Crystal Palace across the sides. His overalls have Crystal Palace on them as well. In fact, you can see some wires hanging from the underside of the helicopter on the far side. It seems he was repairing the machine.

There is a door leading down and a large area of gardens on the roof, growing things like vegetables and flowers. An elderly woman tends one of the gardens, looking up surprised at your sudden appearance.

The G-Spot
"Stand still, Raisa," Sho commands. "Get a blood sample from her," she says to someone behind you. A shadow peels itself from the wall. The form is hazy, you can barely make it out, but you see the needle in his hand. Your mind screams in denial.

Sho tries to make you stand still for the procedure, needing a 17 on her check to do so (15+2 will save). Sho will reroll if she gets less than a 10. She is forced to use a re-roll, but forces Raisa to hold still while she is jabbed and a blood sample is taken.

Loki is up.

"Simply put, if you deny access to the penthouse IMMEDIATELY, you will be obstructing justice and considered an accomplice to the murder attempt that is occuring as we speak. I doubt having a murder occur in your penthouse will be very good for your business either."
 

If I can maintain the power AND use my last HP to recover from disable, I will do that, and try to get as far to Mia as possible.

If it isn't possible, I just stay disable and rlease her from her power, and say: "My only regret will be to die at the hand of a pawn..."
 

Crystal Palace Foyer
"Right," the manager says drolly. "First, you aren't a member of law enforcement so I can't be obstructing anything. Second, if you were a member of law enforcement, you'd have a warrant. Do you have a warrant? I didn't think so!" His voice is rising. "Third, if you were a member of law enforcement, and wanted the co-operation of myself and the security for this private building, even without a warrant, you would have given me a real reason, not some vague implication that one of our tenants was committing a crime laced with threats against me, an employee of the tenants. Fourth," he says icily, sliding a small crystal bowl with mints in it to you. "Please, take one. Now if you'll excuse me, I have work to do, and you need to leave."

You get the distinct impression you have pissed him off where before, he was simply acting professionally. He turns his back to you and picks up a phone, dialing and waiting for a response.

Diplomacy check failed. 6 versus DC 20.

"Ah, better," Mia Toan says, her vision returning. "Actually," she says, and you feel her whispering in your ear. "I'm next in line to run the Red Rose Syndicate. This blood bit just is making kidnapping Raynes so much more profitable." A phone ringing interrupts her ministrations. A door opens.

"What is it now Murphy?"

"A bunch of them are downstairs. Two just flew up to the roof, I saw them in the window."

"And you can't handle them!" she screams.

"Fine, fine," he grumbles, slamming the door.

Your sight clears. You see Mia perusing a rack of daggers. Worst for you, you see her sword sticking out of your stomach.

"You, running the Red Rose syndicat?" a mix of laugh, coughing and blood get out of Kevin mouth, "you're kidding, right. Look at yourself, your are the expendable type, the people you take under your wing to make the job, but at the first failure, you give it to the shark. My father have employ many of them.

But at least, I must give you something, you are the greatest psycho bitch I know, but sadly for you, you are the only one."
Kevin smiles.

I use my last HP to recover from disable. If it is successfull, I continu to play the dying guy until she try to hit me again, which at that moment, I dodge it (with dodge feat against her). If I fail, well, she hit or not, I will become dying, so if that make her better to slit my throat, there is no point to fight...
