Epic M&M: Issue 4 (IC)

[Velmont]

Kevin push X12's hand down.

"You have nothing to be forgiven. What have happen to you, what is happening to you is something that I am sure we just can't imagine. It is strong from you to be able to recognize you need help, and as Carl's said, we are a team, so we will be there for you when you'll need it.

Now, I want to finish that training, and it is not while talking that we will finish it. The sooner we finish, the sooner I can sleep."

 

[Agamon]

"Oh...crap," Neutron says. Looking up at the cameras. "Guys, better be quick, looks like we're going to have some 'capital T' trouble."

He turns towards the doors, and reach out towards them, turns them to metal and fuses them together. Finishing that, he turns towards the cameras, to disintigrate both of them.

OOC: Whole lotta Transmutation +7 going on, one to reinforce the doors, one to turn the cameras to air.

 

[buzzard]

"Look, I don't want any trouble, but I'm not going anywhere. I should be leaving soon, and I haven't caused you any trouble, I highly recommend you leave me alone. You want me off the property, that's fine, but since I was allowed in, I'm not trespassing. You can ask me to leave, but you can't make me go with you. Though I suppose you are welcome to try." With that John will grow to full size, but make no threatening moves.

[Mimic]

Hacking directly into the client data or report data is going to be time consuming either way. Which do you want to do?

Damn it, this isn't connected to the net, can you see if there is a disk I can copy this information onto. Michelle will take a quick look around to see if there is any kind of disk that she can copy the files onto.

If not she will attempt to hack into the client data

 

[Elementor]

As Loki and Simmons approach, Vince halts them. "Trap ahead and it looks like it is wired up to explosives. Looks like we are getting close."

 

[Mule]

"Come on, kid," Simmons says. "The way he's flying, he'd miss any clues there might be along the way." He pulls you up by the arm and starts off down the tunnel.

"I dunno, he's pretty good at what he does, but if you say so," replies Randall as he gets up to follow.

As Loki and Simmons approach, Vince halts them. "Trap ahead and it looks like it is wired up to explosives. Looks like we are getting close."

"Woah, looks like they didn't want us to follow any further. Do you think we could get around it, or maybe even disarm it Vince?"

 

[Deva]

Michael growls. "One bucket for another," he says simply. "Just uncover it and give it here," he finishes with some distaste, flexing his semi-useless hands and the huge claws attached to them. "Then you should probably leave; I don't think this is something you would enjoy seeing."

"Wow," Raisa says with a frown. "I didn't think it was possible for anyone to be as full of self pity as Kevin, but that comes pretty close." She shakes her head and dumps the contents of the wok back into the bucket. "You got a raw deal, but you don't give anyone any reason to treat you any differently than they do. You hate eating like an animal, then don't. I'm sure I'm not the only one to give you other suggestions."

She rolls the bucket toward him and steps back. "But if you're happy acting the way everyone thinks you should, then by all means. You like Jackal better than Michael, who am I to argue. But just don't think you're the only one who's got a crappy hand dealt them. Try going bra shopping when you have breasts larger than most women on the planet and see how you feel."

She drops the pan on the floor and starts for the door. "Call me when your finished." She'll close it behind her then sit on the steps of the dojo and wait.

New York - Methesda
Straightjacket
She backs up quickly, picking up her small radio. "I need back-up in the parking lot, now," she says somewhat nervously. She's only armed with a hand-blaster, and isn't even wearing body armor.

"On my way," a gruff sounding voice says, and you hear the quiet sound of some sort of engine as the communication ends. A single battlesuit comes from across the yard where it had been on patrol, flying rapidly towards you.

"I can assure you, we most certainly can make you come along," she warns. "You were allowed onto the premises, not invited, and I never said you were tresspassing. The rest of your little group is in the process of breaking several laws, however, so either you are going to come to the security station," she says, her voice gaining confidence as she speaks, hand resting on her pistol.

You also notice that the guards near the office entrance are not having much luck getting into the building, and the battlesuit there is waving them back from the door.

Sanjay
You manage to reinforce the doors just as the guards get to them. They are shocked to find the doors a solid mass of iron. You hear them pounding on them. A flick of your wrist and the cameras are destroyed. The bare wires spark once then go quiet.

Then, the pounding stops.

Michelle
You and rebound look very briefly at the computer terminal. There are no removable media drives at all for the terminal. With some frustration, you start comparing client names to the numbers on the completion documents. You find the following clients had completed orders:

0019: NABC (North American Bank of Commerce)
0134: STC (Security Transport Corporation)
0158: SAP (South American Pharmaceuticals)
0934: MCNYPD, M-Tac
​

You easily hack the client database and get addresses and contact numbers for each client, printing it off on the printer beside you. As you print, you hear pounding on the front door.

Then suddenly, as you finish printing, the pounding stops.

Arizona - Lockheed
Johan
Well, that was unpleasant. If you've ever had someone swab your eye, you'd know how unpleasant that is. Doctor Worthy, however, seems oblivious to the discomfort as she catalogues the sample.

"Where'd that winged companion of yours go? Virgil was it? I'd like to examine him more fully," she says. "Oh right, the tunnel. They've been gone a while haven't they."

Anna waves you over. "I think I got a handle on this, and thanks to Doctor Kentworthy, we should be able to really give the range on this thing a kick. Probably a mile, maybe two!"

Loki and Vincent
After a few moments, Loki realizes he can see through the illusion. It was very hard for him to tell because the wires used were so fine, but he spots the explosives and notices finally he can see through them.

Spot (15)

After he waves his hand through it and steps by, Vince and Simmons finally get it and the three of you make your way up a steep incline. You find yourselves inside the entrance to an old mine, and soon find the exit by following the tire tracks. Stepping out into the hot desert air, you can see the interstate several miles to the South and Lockheed's facility several miles to the North. The path from the entrance to the mind winds down from a high set of hills to the flat desert terrain. No road leads through the desert though.

"Well, that explains how they got away without a trace," Simmons says. We'll probably find a ton of tire tracks out there, but it looks like they just went for the freeway."

Raisa
Michael shoots up to his full height with a growl and strains forward in his chains to their limits, the bucket spilling over to the floor about his feet. "You think I'd rather let him be in control, <censored>!?" he roars. "I want him dead! I'd kill him myself if I could, but I can't! He's always inside me, even now!" he shouts, voice deepening somewhat, becoming more feral. "He wants out, and if he gets out, I'll ki... he'll kill you if he can!" He forces himself to stop straining, and you can tell it's a hard thing for him to do. His breath is rapid and laboured, but he does calm down somewhat.

"I'm sorry, Raisa," he says, still a bit strained. "I shouldn't have called you that," he adds, looking remorseful. "But you have to know I'll accept anything, anything, if it means I don't hurt anyone else because of him," he says. "But it doesn't mean I have to like it." He looks down at his feet and sighs. "Damnit," he says, crouching down and trying to salvage something. Unable to pick anything up effectively, he gives up the attempt. "I wasn't that hungry anyway," he says.

You could swear he's actually smaller again. In fact, he's standing inside a pair of his own footprints in the food, and the prints are a quarter inch wider than his feet.

X12, Kevin
"Sleep? You barely woke up a few hour ago, lazy bones," Nova says with a laugh. "And don't think you're gettin' out of school today neither," she adds with a grin.

As you talk, there is a loud shout from nearby. You can't make out the words, but the voice feral and snarling.

"Excuse me, I will return," Xi says. "Continue your training."

Yeah, continue training! Dara exclaims. "Rawr!" she yells as she smacks Kevin in the butt with her staff.

 

[buzzard]

"Invited, allowed, don't try the stupid word games with me. I haven't done anything wrong. If you try to force me to do anything, I guarantee you won't like the consequences. Now keep that little pea shooter in it's place and go back to doing your job, whatever that happens to be. "

Raisa looks at him for a moment. "Well there we go. You're more in control than you think. If it had been a couple of weeks ago, you'd be chewing on my head right about now." She grins at him slyly. "And I am a <censored> half the time, so no harm no foul."

She comes over to the edge of the circle and considers the spilled food. "Just prove that Michael is completely in control, m'kay?" Without hesitating, but prepared to jump out of the way just in case, Raisa steps into the circle to help scoop the food back into the bucket. When done, she'll step out of the circle.
