13, Mendez 12, Dara 10, Goons 6, Raisa 6 Raisa is up, then Johan. FoyerX12 moves into the guards room.  Men are groaning in pain.  Those that were hit by the door are laying amidst rubble, bleeding and unconscious.  They appear badly wounded.  Other guards are strewn about the room, most under a large section of collapsed lighting and suspended ceiling, aftermath of the wall damage.  Those that are conscious are struggling to regain their feet and loose their guns.  A search of one of the most greivously injured guards reveals the keys in his front pocket. Did I mention this is an 80 story skyscraper?  I did, back when the gang was flying up.  Climbing the stairs will probably take you 10-15 minutes as you don't just go striaight up, unless you can fly. Half action move, half action search was successful on DC10. Johan, in the rubble of the table, you see a pump action shotgun.  There is also a sturdy table leg that may be of use.  One of the guards just outside the hole in the wall rolls slightly and you see his pistol still on his hip. Half action search was successful at DC10; half action to retrieve items and ready them. Initiatives: Speed Demon 27, Murphy 23, X12 19, Johan 18, Straightjacket 16, Cosmo 15 Straightjacket is up. RoofMichelle blasts the disk, knocking it backwards.  The disk appears warped slightly but bends itself back into shape.  It lets out a BZZZZ and starts beeping. Hit and some damage done to the disk.  But it's still functional. "I made some new friends.  Maybe you should consider joining me!"  He hears the buzz and laughs.  "Oops, looks like your blood isn't what we're after either!  Time to blow up!  In fact, to hell with it!  All of you can blow up!" "Time for you to shut up!" says Rebound, bouncing down from above.  He lands full on Kevin, knocking him to the ground and bounces thirty feet away. Anna lets a blast loose that just goes wide.  Seeing the disc start coming at her, she puts her rockets to full force and blasts off the side of the building.  The disc streaks after her, gaining ground. Hero point used to double movement. Tara gets up, slightly injured and launches herself into the sky after Anna. "Damn, you are annoying," Kevin mutters, firing on Rebound.  The beam catches him in the back, knocking him to the ground and a crashing halt against the side of the helicopter.  He slumps down, deflating and unconscious. Lethal hit and knockout on Rebound.  Hero point used to get the hit. The disc after Anna is hot on her heels, but doesn't quite catch up.  She's about 80 feet from any of you and moving fast.  The other disc ejects a vial of blood which Kevin catches and pockets moments before recklessly hurling itself at Michelle.  It impacts her, and explodes!  Though the explosion is localized, it's powerful and she is knocked off the side of the building, her force field winking out. It hits with an 18 and explodes.  Your force field absorbs most of the small area blast, but you are stunned and sent flying off the nearest building ledge (save of 14).  It's a long way down, more than 3 rounds at least, so really, you are in no danger.  You can spend a hero point to recover, but will be about a story down and 10 feet from the edge of the building. Neutron is up. Mia 23, Metal Mistress 22, Rebound 20, Anna 16, Stealer 15, Tara 14, Kevin 11, Neutron 7 Amazon: 2HP usedAnna:  1HPCosmo: 3HP used, 2 lethalLoki:  1 lethalMendez:  1 stunMetal Mistress: 1HP used, 1 lethalMultibrain: 1HP usedRebound:  1 lethal, knocked outSpeed Demon: 3HP usedStealer: 4HP used, 3 stun, 4 lethal, dyingStraighjacket: 1HP usedTara: 2HP used, 1 lethal Kevin2:  1 VP, 1 stunMia Toan (Dazzler): 2VP usedMurphy (Headsman): 2VP usedShadow:  1VP used, 1 stunSho: 1VP used</blockquote>
