Epic M&M: Issue 3 (IC)

[Deva]

"Ei, o que vai em? Você nunca me segurará, Cobre! (Translation: Hey, what's going on? You'll never hold me, Copper!)" Dara says with a giggle, trying half-heartedly to get away from John but failing. She gets a positively evil grin on her face.

"You ticklish? Lets find out!"

She jumps up and clings tenaciously to John's chest, trying to tickle her way free.

Raisa shifts Carl a little on her shoulder, making it a little easier and more comfortable for her. She turns back to John and Dara. "Hey, just pick her up and carry her! The infirmary is this way. I don't want her staying like that any more than she has to, it's giving me the willies."

Whether they follow or not, she will take Carl to the infirmary to get him checked out.

 

[Agamon]

OOC: Aaalllrighty then. I knew there was a reason I hated posting my action before its time...

"Holy..." Seeing the carnage, Sanjay jumps into the air and flies straight at the beast.

OOC: Gotta love the hero with low Wisdom. Charge, ramming attack, +6 to hit, not sure of the damage bonus as I'm not sure how far away he is [full action]. Spend an HP if I roll lower than 10 to hit...I think perhaps I'm the one with low wisdom...

 

[Calinon]

"Not to sound mean, Mendez, but then what do you plan on adding to this operation -- right now, judging from his size and disposition, I'll wager you'd make a dandy squeekie-toy for Jackal," X12 says with a chuckle.

"I have an idea. Get his attention -- douse him with a fire-extinguisher, shoot him if we have too. We'll head for the infirmary. There has to have some kind of tranquilizers or sedatives down there. Lead him down there -- and then tranq him."

"You mean a tranq gun like this one?" Mendez says pulling out a strange looking pistol. "Or maybe a stun blaster, like this," he adds, pulling a second weapon out. "Never underestimate a wiley Mexican. I have no intention of letting him anywhere near me. I'll be standing behind the smart aleck with regeneration," he adds, still out of breath, as you bound down the stairs.

You suddenly hear a blood curdling scream from Vincent and a desperate scream for help from Jun Po.

You'll be there in the round after those in the hallway or you can spend a HP to get there this round. Mendez is spending that point...

"Try some roughage." Vince dashes into the nearby sauna grabs a few of the red hot rocks, zips back and unloads them in Jackals gaping mouth.

Jackal howls, shaking his head to spit the rocks out. He turns his glowing eyes on you. He releases you and you wonder if this was such a smart move as he is now focussed on you.

Taunt automatically successful. Very clever, so not even a hit roll required. He'll definitely be trying to eat you this round.

"Annoying... fly... give Jackal... wings..." he growls, tossing Jun Po aside. You'd probably enjoy watching her as she deftly lands on her feet, if not for the amount of her own blood coating her. Then, you focus on Jackal as he slashes at you with amazing speed! You duck once, spinning away from another blow but he latches onto the back of your head, slamming you face first into the tiles, driving the air from your body. He pulls you up, his arm around your throat and starts wrenching on your left wing. With a spray of blood, it comes free as your back litterally explodes in pain.

Grapple hits with a 29. Grapple check is won with a 30 versus 18. Damage save is failed with a 19 and you are stunned. Jackal uses heroic effort and does damage again, scoring a crit with a natural 20. You fail the save with a 6 use a re-roll and end up with a 15 and are horrified to have your wing come free.

"Vincent!" Jun Po shouts in shock, charging at Jackal. She aims a punch right at his arm holding Vincent, and shatters Jackal's elbow. The beast howls in pain, staggering backwards, collapsing on the ground. You collapse as well. "Hold still Vincent," Jun Po says quietly, grabbing the remnants of her robe and pressing it against your wound. You see she is actually crying. "Someone, help!" she screams. "Close your eyes, Vincent. Don't look at it," she pleads. In all your days at the institute you've never heard her use much emotion at all. That in and of itself is terrifying.

Much to your horror, you see Jackal very silently get up, his arm contorting as the elbow reforms perfectly. He has a cold grin on his face as he sneaks unseen at Jun Po's back.

Woo boy, that was actually unpleasant to type out. I think I surpassed Aggy on that one, and it was stupid rolls. If you want to act E-man, just tell me what you want to do. Vince is up.

Condition: Vincent (2S, 2L, disabled, prone, 1HP used), Jun Po (2L, prone sorta), Jackal (2L, regenerated 3S, regenerated disabled condition)

Initiatives: Jackal 29, Vincent 28, Jun Po 27, Loki 25, Neutron 21, Cosmo 20 (Aye Carumba!), X12 18, Mendez 15

In the Hallway
You hear two things that are disturbing. One is a blood curdling scream from Vincent and one is a desperate cry for help from normally emotionlly reserved Jun Po.

Just noticed Agamon posted afore his time. Kinda important this time, given what horrid things just happened. You'll get in the room to the sight described above... Jackal silently stalking at Jun Po and the mess of blood and torn bodies...

"Sure no prob. She is a bit unnerving at that." John says as he picks her up and follows along.

"Never underestimate a wiley Mexican. I have no intention of letting him anywhere near me. I'll be standing behind the smart aleck with regeneration," he adds, still out of breath, as you bound down the stairs.

"Hand me one of those, X12 says dryly, "and get behind the meat shield, old man. Are you sure I shouldn't heal your weak, old-man lungs before we run down the stairs?" he adds with a chuckle.

OOC: I'll spend the HP.

 

[Calinon]

"Hey, just pick her up and carry her! The infirmary is this way. I don't want her staying like that any more than she has to, it's giving me the willies."

"Sure no prob. She is a bit unnerving at that."

"I'm like, right here! Hello?" Dara says angrily, pouting. At least I'm not talking to my invisible dad. I didn't do anything wrong! Lemme go! Please... she pleads. This isn't fun any more. You're all being mean to me.

To Raisa only she projects, I didn't mean to! I won't do it again! Just lemme go! I don't wanna go to the doctor! Just... can't we go to the gym and dance instead? Or we could go make Sanjay's uniform! I don't want to let Empath in my head. I don't want you mad at me!

"Now leggo, or so help me god I'll turn you inside out," she growls in perfect Portugese. (too lazy to go to the translator)

Pool
Loki, you spot an extension cord plugged into the wall and the other end leads into the pool. You think you just found the source of the blackout.

Mendez grumbles, "Young *huff* punk," as he tosses you the stun blaster. "Safety's off, don't *puff* shoot yourse... holy <expletive>..." His jaw drops as you enter the pool. Jackal is silently stalking towards a naked and bleeding Jun Po. Vince is laying face down on the ground, and one of his wings is a good ten feet away. Both are soaked in blood.

 

[Mordane76]

X12, detached, levels the blaster and squeezes off a shot. "Over here, Jackal," he yells. "I've wanted a piece of you since Day One."

 

[Mule]

Loki, you spot an extension cord plugged into the wall and the other end leads into the pool.

"Stay out of the water! It's electrified!" Doing his best not to throw up after seeing Vince's wing a good distance away from Vince's body, Loki will dive for the cord pulling it out of the wall.

OCC: Yes, I know with the breakers tripped the extension cord is harmless, but it's what came to Randall first as what to do. And if backup power got somehow activated, that could get messy...

OOC: Randall will activate his blending ability. He will focus his dodge bonus on Jackal as well, if it comes to that.

EDIT: Calinon has informed me that Loki can also still do an attack action this round, so he will. Loki will try to hit Jackal with a dazzle attack.

 

[Mimic]

"I'm like, right here! Hello?" Dara says angrily, pouting. At least I'm not talking to my invisible dad. I didn't do anything wrong! Lemme go! Please... she pleads. This isn't fun any more. You're all being mean to me. "Now leggo, or so help me god I'll turn you inside out," she growls in perfect Portugese. (too lazy to go to the translator)

Dara, we aren't going to hurt you, we are trying to help you. Please don't make this any harder for any of us. She tells the girl with real concern in her eyes.

 

[Elementor]

Much to your horror, you see Jackal very silently get up, his arm contorting as the elbow reforms perfectly. He has a cold grin on his face as he sneaks unseen at Jun Po's back.

"No....Not her too..." Coughing gouts of blood as he tries to speak Vince grabs hold of Jun Po tightly and tries to protect her as best he can. Using the strength he has left, Vince tries to dash past Jackal in any way he can to get himself and Jun Po out of the room.

Powers: HP used to lose Disabled. Get Superspeed back up (free), 1/2 action to get up from prone and 1/2 action to get the hell out of there carrying Jun Po. Dodge focused on Jackal (obviously)
