Epic M&M: Issue 5 (IC)

"Thanks, kitten," Sanjay says, managing a smile. "You weren't lacking in the bravery department either, charging at Mole and Mason like that. At least they didn't hurt that pretty face of yours."

"Raisa is right, and someone is near. I can hear him breathing. Iw ouldn't be surprise to be Mia. I can smell her perfum. Rushing would be acting like fools. And trying to surprise them is now impossible. They've heard us, and they wait for us. We can retreat from here. Better fail to save Wen than to lose half of us. We have an escaping route, and place to fight here. Better to take them here."

Kevin take a step foawrd the group and start to shout.

"Mia! You owe me a drink, why don't you show up yourself and let's talk!"

"If Mason has fallen and no others have shown themselves, Anarchy is not nearby," Loco says with assurance. But, you have seen Ghost?" Loco asks Michelle. "None ever have gotten a description of the villain before," he says, then looks around. "A guard upstairs warned me of other villains within the facility. What happened to them?"

Yea we saw Ghost, Michelle says tiredly as she lands next to Loco. As for the others that would have been Mole and his crew, speaking of which has anyone seen Anithos? Loki is he hiding behind an illusion?

Someone had paid Mole to steal some nasty biological agent, we were here to stop them, we were fighting them when Mason and Ghost showed up, I think they were after the same thing. Michelle pauses at this point. No, no they weren't, Ghost threw the last container to Mason before he stole the truck so that means they were after something else and were using the fight to get it unnoticed.

Mole and them got away but they didn't get what they come for.

"Better to fail?!" Li exclaims, followed by a resounding slap to Kevin's face before he can shout anything. "I am not leaving here without my grandfather," she says angrily at him. "There are seven of us, and look what Raisa did to over thirty armed men outside."

"How exceptionally noble," comes a whispy voice from somewhere nearby. A thin white line of a smile appears on the shadows of the wall. It quickly vanishes, only to reappear on the other wall. "I fail to see what Miss Toan wants with you, York. You are such a defeatist. But she doesn't actually want the old man, just you."

A shadowy tunnel appears on the wall near Kevin. "She's down there, waiting for you. If you go to her now, she'll let the old man go," he says, and another white smile opens near the tunnel. He sounds quite truthful.

For those that were in the strip club, this is the same shadowy mutant you've seen before.

OOC: Loki can't detect any more illusions, nor can he see Anithos at all.

"I will alert the military forces and the rest of my team. If we are fortunate, we shall find and stop Ghost and this Mole person," Loco says. "Summon a containment unit," Loco orders one of the guards. "Keep his powers out of commission as long as possible," he adds to Cosmo.

Sanjay
"I'm tougher than I look," Monica says with a twitch of her whiskers as a doctor comes over.

"One is infected with Anaconda over here!" the doctor says. "Amazing, the innoculation seems to have worked," he says more to himself than anyone. "We might finally be on to an actual cure..."

Another doctor comes over. "Excellent, it worked," she says. "Get him to the treatment center. We'll need to perform a full blood transfusion as quickly as possible. The serum won't last long."
 

"Uh, you're amazed it worked?" Sanjay says, eyes wide. "Me too, then, I guess. A full blood transfusion...oy, that sounds like fun..." he adds, waiting to be taken away.
 

"Yes, better fail than have us all killed. That doesn't mean we don't have to try." Kevin says to Li.

"I must have been really entertaining, last time we met. Or she simply don't like the unfinish job."

If I walk alone, Wen will be free, no one will get hurt, no one would be killed, except me. But it isn't like my life worth something for them. I am just a source of trouble for them, and they make sure I remember it every day... finally, my big mistake have been to decline the Prophet offer. I would have get rid of Mia and she wouldn't had done this. I wouldn't have to live with person who doesn't like me, and make sure I know it... but would X have survived the Jackal's hunt?
 

"I don't care what Miss Toan wants -- I'm not about to trade any one of us here for Master Wen. We all came here to get Master Wen, and we're all leaving here with Master Wen. Li is right - there are seven of us, and only 17 of them," X12 says, drawing the sai.

"I don't want to run into an obvious ambush, but I'm even more against trading one person for another to the likes of Toan. And as long as I'm breathing, Kevin... none of us are going to die."

"I shall tell Miss Toan that you have declined her gracious offer," the shadowy creature says with mock disappointment. The smile swiftly vanishes, as does the shadowy tunnel. Shadows ripple along the wall away from you and into the main cavern, moving at supernatural speed.

Xi runs his hand over the wall where the portal was moments before. There is a faint hiss, and and his hand easily sinks into the rock. "Limestone," he says.

"Hmm..." Carl ponders. "That I could pass through."

"I can melt it easily. So could Kevin," Xi adds.
 

X, always there to take my defence, it wouldn't be another one who would have said that.

"That make three of us. We could give a try with that. Raisa, Dara, X and Li, you could go the way foward, while Carl, Xi and I try to surprise them. We could even try our way to Wen, while you four are drawing the main forces in the tunnel. Would that sound good, or am I missing something big?"

"Hmmm, I wonder where he got to..." Loki thinks to himself.
Calinon said:
(post #528) Loki, you glance over as Anithos gets your attention and notice that the entire security office is cloaked in an illusion. Anithos shows you something in his hand, and smirking, sets it on the desk, leaving the office without actually doing anything to the terminal. None of his companions, or yours, seems to notice the illusion.
When he gets a chance, Loki will sneak into the security office to take a look around. He'll try to find whatever it was that Anithos left on the desk.
