Initiatives: Rameirez 22, Speed Demon 21, Straightjacket 21, Mantis 20, Loki 19, Cosmo 18, Metal Mistress 16 (1HP), Robots(1 up [1 grappled], 3 down) 14, Iron Maiden 12, Kitten 11 (1HP, 1L), Guards(5) 11-2, Neutron 6, Rebound 5, Johan 5-2 (1L)
Vincent
Vince tries to find enough purchase to stand so he can fly after the car, but only manages to slide about five feet as two of the remaining robots blast at him again.
Balance check (DC 18): 6 fails, 15 fails
Note: With your wings needing to flap, you won't be able to fly until you can stand
Attack rolls: 9 misses, 23 misses
The other robot turns and blasts Anna, electricity surging into her. She seems unaffected as she delivers a counter sonic blast at the robot which sparks and thunks down to the ground.
Attack rolls: Robot 22 hits, Anna natural 20 (crit)
Anna's Damage save (DC 14): 15 success
Robot's Damage save (DC 29): 22 fails (disabled)
Upstairs
Kitten bounces over to John and his robot, draining the thing of energy. "Thanks, stretch," she says happily. "Um... shouldn't someone go fetch that twit in the car?"
Vince comes over the comm, sounding very pissed off. "Freakin' yes I need freakin' help! I can't freakin' move!" Vince exclaims as you hear energy blasts over the comm units. "And he's getting away!"
"There are three robots here, and they've immobilized Vince with an ice field," Anna says over the comm shortly after. "Watch it coming down the chute though, it's a tight fit!"
"I'll go help the goat boy," Cosmo smirks, dropping into the chute.
A general groan goes around the room at Loki's quip. "It is indeed, mate!" Jackson agrees.
"Ms. Vaile puts her hand on Neutron's arm to get his attention. "Neutron, this is very important," she stresses, repeating her question. "Where have you seen the results of the Anaconda virus?"

X12, Kevin
Initiatives: X12 15 (2HP, 3S, -1 strength), Shadows 14-1, Kevin 14-2 (5HP, 3L, 1S, -2 Super Strength)
The shadow standing before you two strikes hard at Kevin's sword with its claws, slamming them into the hilt of the sword. So powerful is the strike that the blade shatters away from the hilt and the hilt falls to pieces.
Attack roll: 13 (VP to reroll is 24) hits
Damage save (DC 26): 6 (sword is severed at the hilt)
The other shadow slams Dara again into the chair, then lets her go and turns to face you. Dara slumps, then rolls out of the chair to fall motionless on the ground.
Kevin then X12 is up. Kevin now has no sword.
Raisa
Initiative: Jackal 28 (1VP, 2S), Raisa 18 (3S, stunned)
Raisa struggles to break the grapple, but can't get enough purchase to leverage herself out.
Opposed grapple check: Jackal 27, Raisa 20
Jackal presses his other claws into the rock, pinning Raisa completely.
Opposed grapple check: Jackal 25, Raisa 24
"Think, Raisa. Think what we could do together. Our strength would be unmatched." You feel his teeth on the sides of your neck as he closes his jaws lightly around it. He doesn't break your skin as he drags them back leaving welts until you hear his jaws clack shut again. "We could do anything, kill anyone," he continues. "Nobody could stop us. The others are useless to you." He bites your shoulder, tearing through the fabric and leaving more welts. "I knew you were the one when you were beating us in that magical prison. I felt your strength then, even when you held back. Join me and together we can wreak wonderful carnage."
You realize suddenly that this... creature hasn't been trying to hurt you, or play with you. In fact, he's never used any attack that could have been remotely lethal on you. He's been trying to impress you and now, in his own demented way, seduce you.
Sense motive: 15 success
"Get off her!" you hear Michael shout from behind you. Despite his wounds, he's straining at his chains, but he can't seem to loosen or break them. You see, out of the corner of your eye, Jackal's head swivel as he gives a loud and angry snarl at Michael.

"Great! X, take care of them, I'll take care of Dara." Kevin move between the shadows and try to reach Dara. "Sorry Dara, I know you forbid me, but..." he try to touch her.
OOC: Kevin try to move up to Dara and grab her, but at the moment he grab her, he activates his mimic. He try to mimic Dara's powers and feats, except the link with Raisa. I think I have my three subject (Raisa, and X two times), if so, I just get rid of Medecine mimic.

The blood in her veins runs like ice at Jackal's words. Her body shudders in revultion at his every touch and it takes everything Raisa has to keep from giving in to the fear. "You are insane!"
At Michael's shouts, she turns her head to the side as much as she can. Seeing him fighting despite his wounds and thinking of what Dara was going through, she stops struggling under Jackal's hand and she grits her teeth. "If I did, would you stop this? Would you call off the rest of the Shadows and let Michael and the others go?"
