"Damn," Sanjay says angrily as the SWAT members fall to the ground. "These people need medical attention," he calls out before turning back to Loki. A look of relief comes over him when he finally sees Ms. Vaile.
"Uh, me, I'm fine..." he says, rather unconvincingly. "Vida...she's up in your lab...she's far worse off than I am, a lot of what used to be in me got into her, but she's getting some attention right now. That antidote seems to be working on her. Thanks for sending her to get me, I owe both of you my life." He pauses a moment in thought. "You left a lab assistant to help me. She was quite helpful, too, and, um, really shy it seems, too."

Once she is back in the garage and if there is any way to contact the captain she talked to earlier she will inform him that the situation is under control but there is wounded and he should get some medical personal here and quickly as possible.
"Now lets see if all this destruction was worth it." Michelle says as she walks up the the limo, when the others are ready and with her forcefield active, she will rip open the limo door.

Getting ahold of Captain Ralina is pretty easy. He and the rest of his SWAT commandos arrive only moments after you. Several of his men secure, none to gently, the downed mercenaries, while a few of them use first aid kits to treat their own wounded.
Straightjacket's father comes around slowly. His green glow surges slightly then completely fades away, but as it does so all of his wounds fade with it. "Ow, my aching spleen," he says jokingly. Straightjacket pulls his father to his feet with a shake of his head, once more a more comfortable and normal height within the garage.
"Damn, pop. You are crazy, you know that?" SJ says.
Loco's forces gather with you in the garage.
"Gavião de Gelo," Loco says as the winged and bearded man with the ice hammer alights inside. He tosses an unconscious merc to an ISA member.
"We've met," he rumbles, his wings folding neatly behind his back.
"Pedra and Jato," he says, nodding at the round rock-man with spindly arms and legs and the human shaped form of ink-like substance who is just entering the garage, a silver armored merc in a tendril of blackness.
"Heya," the ink-person says in a high pitched and friendly female voice as she dumps the man near some ISA SWAT members who quickly bind him.
"And that," Loco says pointing behind you at a barrel chested and large bellied man who resembles a world class weightlifter more than anything, "is Poço de Energia."
"Justh Poco," the man says with a lisp.
"As you say, I am interested to learn who is within this wreck of a car," Loco says to you when you suggest opening it up.
And wreck it is. The engine has basically exploded from Tara's slamming of her insect arms through it. It was already bent from its fall to the ground when the hoverjets stopped and a rather Pedra-like indentation has shoved the grill way back to near the driver seat. You can see the driver slumped over the wheel with a nasty bump on his head. The banging is coming from the back.
With your powers, you tear the door easily from its frame. Even before any of you move towards the door, a man slowly extracts himself from the now empty door frame. He gets up, and up, and up some more, standing six feet, eight inches and dressed in a stylish, well made and obviously exctremly expensive business suit. He straightens his tie and suit jacket, and takes a hankerchief out to press to a small cut on his cheek. Michelle recognizes him as Rao Telda from the picture you saw upstairs.
"I must thank all of you for your well timed rescue," he says smoothly with an honestly thankful look. "I feared I was done for at the hands of those mercenaries. I also fear that some of my companions have not fared so well during the rescue." He gestures to the car within which you can see several injured people.
Loco looks at you with a raised eyebrow, giving you a "What the heck is going on" look. Gavião de Gelo looks unimpressed by Rao Telda, and unconvinced by his story. The remaining members of your and his team look at you and Loco for direction.
Neutron, Speed Demon, Johan
Ms. Vaile looks at Neutron with narrowed eyes briefly, making him feel rather uncomfortable for a long moment. "Yes," she says as if trying to guage what he's thinking. "She is very shy." As quickly as the odd look comes, it fades, as if she's satisfied that Neutron is as clueless as he appears. "I am glad you are both alright. I assume my assistant is unharmed as well?"
Just then, Vince alights ontop of the van.
"Yes, for the most part we appear unharmed, thank you Mr. Pratchett," Ms. Vaile says pleasantly, but seriously. Medics are already moving to help the wounded ISA members Neutron freed from the damaged vehicle. "I am most interested in learning if you have captured that dog, Telda." All nicety is gone from her voice when she says his name, and it sends a shiver up your spines.
And both Vince and Johan know that they have. From communicator chatter, they hear from Tara that Telda is saying he was a prisoner of MERC and is saying they rescued him. He's up in the garage where the other fight originated.
Johan's other self is suddenly very busy. Six duplicates spring forth rapid fire, and immediately move off to help the medics without casting a second glance towards the "real" Johan. Then the other self sits back down and continues to mumble incoherently.

Dover, England -- The York Estate
Jay is about to go help Michael dig out Raisa, when he recognizes that Thunder's collapse was far from being theatrics. He's out cold, and not moving. He also recalls his father is badly wounded and lying against a nearby tree. Taking family over strangers, EPIC or not, he checks on his father and fins him pretty badly hurt. It isn't life threatening, but he'll require hospitalization for sure. With some skillful first aid, he does stabilize his conditioin and bring him slowly, if dazedly around.
X12 hurries over to Thunder and finds him in very bad shape. He's taken multiple rounds, one in the chest, two in a leg and one in the shoulder. The leg and shoulder wounds are through and through, but the chest injury most certainly is not. It probably took everything he had to bluff Tank into leaving before he collapsed. X12 immediately recognizes that Thunder cannot be simply healed by touch. The bullet in his chest will have to be surgically removed, though his powers will definitely keep him alive. Resting his hands on Thunders other wounds, X12 begins the painful and slow process of wound closure. With his power reserves low, it takes all his concentration to do so.
Jay sees Michael pull Raisa (though he doesn't know their names) from the rubble and the girl is wobbly but on her feet, a testament to her toughness. Kevin's father seems fine after a moment, remarkably fine, and he pulls an armband like he gave Jay off, gesturing to X12 and Thunder.
"Take that and put it to good use, son," Lord York says. "I'll be fine. I am fine, actually," he adds, getting to his feet under his own power. "Just a few charges left, but it should be enough."

Sanjay is quite clueless, that is until he gets the look from Ms. Vaile. Then the wheels slowly start to grind. After some thought he opens his mouth as if to speak and then closes it again, thinking some more. "Yeah, uh, really shy. She wouldn't even tell me her name. But yes, she unharmed and safe in your private office. I watched her enter myself. She seemed pretty adamant that no one see her for some reason," he says, shrugging, but flashing her a look that says he realizes something is strange about the whole thing. He wants to say more, but leaves it at that out of respect for all the help the woman has been to him.

OOC: Kevin? that is confusing me...
Jay takes the bracer and gives a closer looks. "Nice gadget, a new development from your industries? What it does exactly? Is that what just heal you?" He puts the bracer.
After hearing his father explanation, he move to Thunder, to see if everything is fine. Seeing X12 wounds, he looks confused...
"How did you gets those wounds... I didn't see you shoot that bad by bullets."

"Long story, I'll have to tell you sometime," he says, passing the bracelet onto Thunder. "Mine'll close soon enough, but Thunder needs to get to a hospital - the bullet wounds he's suffered will have to be treated surgically first - the rounds have to be removed. Otherwise, I've done everything I can for him right now."

For once, Johan has absolutely no idea what happened when his duplicate duplicates, which he has found to be impossible before.
Then he deducts that since a duplicate can't duplicate, and he was unable to duplicate before while his 'duplicate' seems to be doing it just fine, he must be the duplicate instead. Which still doesn't explain everything, but is a lot closer to.
"Please excuse me," Johan says to Ms. Vaille and the others, "I believe I need to discuss things with my other self."
Johan walks over to himself (couldn't pass up the chance to say that).
"If my memory serves me well, and it close to always does, I am the first duplicate to believe being the original. Besides that interesting phenomenom, we seem to be sharing a physical empathic link. Am I correct in assuming that is also your assesment?"
