"Only bullies and simpletons pick on defenseless girls, Jackal," X12 shouts as he advances on the beast.
"Take cover, Dara -- you're in no condition to play hero," he thinks loudly, hoping the young telepath is listening.
OOC: I'll advance on Jackal and attack, and choose to fight defensively.

Initiatives: Jackal 28 (6VP, 1L, 5S), Raisa 18 (3HP, 2L, 3S, stunned), Kevin 14 (5HP, 6L, 1S, -1 Super Strength), X12 13 (2HP, 1L, 3S), Dara 5 (4HP, 5L, 5S, -8 strength)
X12 crosses the yard towards Jackal and taunts him, dropping into a defensive stance.
Taunt goal: Make the scary thing with giant rending claws attack me... well, ok!
Taunt vs Sense Motive: Taunt 15, Sense Motive 16
Jackal's eyes fixate on X12. "You're next," he growls. Instead of rushing X12, however, the beast leaps through the air in a huge arc, covering the 50 feet to Dara easily... almost. As he plumets at her, claws extended and with a roar, she lifts her head then all of you, Jackal included, scream as a mental assault shatters into you.
There! Are you happy! Just leave them alone! Dara screams mentally, broadcasting it throughout the courtyard. You have no idea who she is talking to.
Attack roll: 22 hits
Reflex saves (DC 19): Kevin 14, Raisa 18, X12 11
Damage saves (DC 24): Jackal 5 (VP to re-roll becomes 18) [1L, stunned]; Kevin 15 [1L, stunned]; Raisa 12 (HP to reroll becomes 18) [1L, stunned]; X12 17 [1L, stunned]
Jackal crashes to the ground ten feet away from her and Kevin, twenty feet behind X12 and forty feet from Raisa. Dara remains standing, staring intently at Jackal, visible waves of energy connecting them. The rest of you are left clutching your heads and groaning. Jackal is the first to try to recover, climbing to his feet and shaking his head.
"Get out of my head!" he roars, shaking his head back and forth. He slams his fist down into the ground, but there is no power behind it.
He had to spend his turn recovering from the stun. You can all spend hero points to recover if you wish. I finally updated Dara's condition, so now there's someone worse off than Kevin
All of you are up. Raisa may wish to change her choice of actions seeing as it's a fairly long way to Jackal and she's stunned.

Initiatives: Jackal 28 (6VP, 3L, 6S, KO), Raisa 18 (5HP, 2L, 3S, stunned), Kevin 14 (5HP, 6L, 1S, -1 Super Strength), X12 13 (3HP, 1L, 3S), Dara 5 (5HP, 5L, 5S, -8 strength, dying)
Raisa is first to clear her head, charging Jackal from behind. She delivers a hard punch to the back of his head and then slides to a halt in front of him, between Dara and Jackal.
Attack roll: 27 hits
Damage save (DC 18): 20 succeeds (youch)
Kevin shakes his head clear as well, charging at Jackal, kicking him hard in the gut. Jackal rocks backwards and suddenly shrinks by at least two feet.
Attack roll: Natural 20 (crit)
Damage save (DC 18): 16 fails (1S)
Sword still in hand, X12 staggers forward, regaining his composure as he swings at Jackal. The sword slices at Jackal, and the blade draws a line in his skin.
Attack roll: 18 hits
Damage save (DC 11): 7 fails (1L)
Dara is still staring at Jackal, who has been clutching at his head as he tries to defend himself. Suddenly, he crouches down and roars loudly, a claw slashing through the mental energy wave. Dara suddenly goes limp and collapses face first onto the ground. As she does, Jackal suddenly collapses to his knees, then goes limp as well, collapsling face first to the ground.
Will save (DC 24): 12 (1L, KO)
An eerie silence fills the courtyard as the shadows in each archway and above you bubble. You are all kind of looking around with the same look on your faces. Did you just win?

SAP Corporate HQ
SAP is definitely given legitimate authorization to use the scanning devices and replicate them. Either that or that was the absolute best actor portraying Alfred Morgan in the entire world. Johan, peeking at the screen, know's its Morgan from the abrasion on his head from the incident at Lockheed.
Monica glares at Sanjay, but he doesn't notice. It's more a jealous glare than an angry one.
"Good," Ms. Vaile replies to Sanjay. "But we'll have to move quickly in case the mercenaries are already on the move. What sort of information do you need to prevent the theft, or god forbid, barring that, stop the virus from leaving the country?"
