EPIC M&M: Issue 2 (IC)

Loki, you realize something odd. Loki's double with the cannon is slowly crawling into the nearby hallway beside the restaurant, invisible, dragging his scary arse cannon with him.
OOC: Do you mean, "Kevin's double with the cannon"?

Randall does a quick double take, looking from unconscious Kevin to invisible gun-toting Kevin. "Wha? Two of them?" Randal will move to follow the invisible Kevin, trying not to tip him off that Randall knows he's there.

OOC: Randall missed all of the restaurant fight tending to "Stumpy" right? Not knowing that Kevin's double is hostile, he'll do nothing more than follow, wary of the arse cannon. If the double does something to indicate otherwise, hopefully Randall is in a position to try to blind the double with light, or distract him with an illusion, and attempt to disarm him.

"Ouch," the female medic says, seeing John's wounded leg. "That looks painful. Let me bandage that for you. What made that burn?"



"I'm not really sure what it was. It was some kind of big gun that shot a beam or energy or somethin. All I know is it hurts a heck of a lot. I'm amazed I'm still walking. I kinda figure once the adrenalin wears off, I won't be walking so easy". Replies John through gritted teeth as he deals with the pain.

"Yes," X12 says flatly, kneeling down next to the medic. "These are some serious injuries, he comments, taking off one of his gloves. "I'm going to need you to catch me here in a moment, sir," he says to the medic, "as I'm likely to pass out. Please, try to catch me by the shirt -- just don't touch my skin, if you can at all manage. My wounds will look severe for a few moments -- they will heal, though.

He then reaches down and touches Kevin's forehead.

OOC: Powers: Healing and Regeneration.
 

X12
"I have a better idea," the medic says, grabbing his arm before he touches Kevin. "How about you just lie down first. And maybe take off your shirt to prevent it sticking to the burn."

Following the logical suggestion, X12 does so and then touches Kevin. There is a loud crack as his jaw breaks and he experiences more blinding pain when his chest absorbs the burn. Mercifully, he passes out.

Kevin blinks his eyes and sits up, completely healed, looking a bit dazed.

X12's healing check on Kevin succeeds in curing his disabled condition (23). Kevin makes his check to recover from unconsciousness (18).

X12 gets an immediate check to recover from each of the disabled conditions he absorbed, one from Kevin (burns), one from his injured double (broken jaw). He gets a 17 (failure) on the burn and a 22 (success) on the jaw. He remains disabled, but is rapidly regenerating his injuries. You can spend a hero point to recover (automatic 10+11 = 21), or wait a day for a free check. Kevin is completely recovered.

It takes about a minute, but his open wounds close, and his jaw mends itself together without aid. He slowly blinks his eyes open and lets out a groan and a raspy breath. He realizes his ribs, while healed are certainly not going to let him run any marathons soon.

Within a minute you are free of wounds, but remain disabled (injured ribs). I'll edit this if needed.

The medic is amazed, as is the one tending John. "Woah, now there's something you don't see everyday."

"Hey, lets have him fix up that leg of yours," the female medic suggests, pulling John towards X12.

Loki
Kevin's double shakes his head and suddenly hops up, seeming uninjured. He looks around, sees you tailing him, flips you off and runs towards the hall he was crawling towards. You realize that while you can see him, he's making no sound.

The duplicate was healed as well.
 

"Ow! Well, what happen? X12! He is knockout! Is that because of me?" looking at the medic. "Does he really think he will have the chance to rest? I earn that!" Kevin touch X12 and try to mimic his power, and try to heal back X12. Kevin may fall again knockout, but at least, he will regenerate...

"Since he obviously feels it when he does it, howzabout we don't make him suffer more right now? I'll just suck it up for the moment. Just make sure the wound is clean." Suggests John after watching X12's obvious pain.

Carl comes up beside Raisa as she walks. "You gotta learn to keep a low profile, you know that?"

Raisa shakes her head and stops at the foot of the stairs, turning to face Carl. " Me? Those cuzãos are the ones that made the scene. I was on my way to get Michelle's things back from upstairs for her when they ambushed me. It's not my fault that they've got sticks the size of banana trees up their butts."

She sighs as she starts to take the stairs two at a time. " It just stinks, you know? If this is how this Superhero business is going to be - us trying to help and only getting blamed for it by the normals - I want no part of it. Show me where to sign up to be one of the bad guys. That way, when I get in trouble for something, it's something I actually did intentionally."
 

Vince should easily catch up to the waiter and his gang buddies. He will smack around the waiter and try to draw the fire of the others to let the rest of the EPIC crew catch up.

Powers: Superspeed and Mach One Punch if needed
 

Upstairs
You all see the three thugs and the waiter and they definitely see you, picking up their pace and heading to the stairs. Vince bolts 200 yards ahead, zipping to a stop infront of the stairs with a grin, intending to smack around someone.

Sprint to catch up. They are yards ahead, you move 140 feet, or wherever you pretty much want with sprint.

The three thugs appear to be a higher class of thug, and older too, much better dressed than the other thugs you fought, including silk sleevless vest-shirts and Khakis. You see they each have intricate tatoos of red roses on their forearms, and appear to have concealed knives on their persons.

"Where did you come from," the man in the tuxedo says with surprise, stepping back behind the three. "Delay him," he barks, and they move to attack while he runs down a nearby hallway towards an exit.

All three deliver various martial art attacks catching Vince off guard. One leaps up, kicking at Vince's head, hitting him in the eye! Another catches him in the gut while a third foot sweeps him off his feet!

Vincent takes a stun hit from the kick to the eye, makes his damage save against the kick in the stomach, and is successfully tripped to the ground. Nothing important enough to use a HP on. No initiative because really, this will be no challenge.

Vincent, despite the rapidly brusing eye, distinctly notices that none are using weapons and none really appear any more talented than, well, a thug.

Sprinting, everyone can reach Vince after another "round" of mook combat. Losing dodge bonus sucks for Vince btw.

Raisa
"How big are banana trees, anyway?" Carl asks. "Probably shouldn't try to scare people when cameras are around huh? But if you are gonna, get a bat." He says calmly without real concern or emotion as he walks up the stairs. "Don't remember Superman hitting the store owners in the comics, though."

Darn, Carl is a wealth of useful knowledge and advice, isn't he? Sad part is, you can't really tell if he's joking about the bat or not.
