Sergeant Ryan says.He points over behind you and you spot Michelle catching a helicopter in mid plumet with a powerful and visible magnetic field.  A blue garbed man appears next to her and waves at another helicopter, dropping it from the sky as well as an exact copy of him shoots some sort of energy beam at the one Michelle caught.  You also see Tara zipping through the sky towards you, Rebound bouncing through the air over traffic and Anna blasting off right at Michelle and the two men near her.  You see Carl and Raisa picking their way through the cars and people, towering above everyone, and towering above them is the form of John, striding easily over roofs of cars like a giant. "B team or not, damn glad the cavalry is here!" Ryan exclaims. Kevin doesn't see Johan, as he's normal sized. Initiatives:  Flick 24, Mole 19, Aerin 18, Anithos 16, Tara 16, Raisa 16, Kevin 16, Michelle 16, Anna 16, Rebound 16, Johan 14, Straighjacket 10, Carl 7 You are all 20 feet behind Michelle and 100 feet from the SWAT truck where Kevin is.  That truck is 20 feet from the outside edge of the clear area (100 feet across, 300 feet long) where the three villains stand.  Michelle is 20 feet in the air, with the men by her 10 feet above and 10 feet to her left and right respectively.  She has a helicopter suspended 60 feet above that (80 feet from the ground.  Another helicopter is plummetting to the ground, is about 150-170 feet up and will crash at the end of next round. No map this time, like the pool fight.  You have a TON of room to maneuver.  A sprint will get anyone to the SWAT truck or the edge of the ring.  Remember, you lose your dodge bonus if you sprint.  Combat will be in order for what Michelle is doing and anyone involved in that, and otherwise initiative order will wait until you are in position.</blockquote>
