"Can you do that?" Raisa asks, coming back to stand next to Empath. "I mean, I am kinda use to having her in there but it would be nice to have some private thoughts again. And if its me that's causing all this not so Dara-like behaviour then sever away. I miss how she was before..." Before she got messed up with my violent tendancies. she finishes the thought to herself.

OoC: Damn, this is getting more and more interesting. I was actually considering if I could try to do what the kid Vince found had done, and leap out from the pane 
. And I have a sneaking suspicision that Johan is the cause for the television feed getting cut off.
IC: "Now that is an interesting side-effect of the virtual construct of data security destroying its controls..." Johan mutters to himself as he get up. Noticing the supervisor eyeing the door, he adds, "Please don't run out of the room in terror, I am not going to hurt anybody." If the guys does try for the door, however, Johan will attempt to block his way, either by standing in the way or tripping the guy if he's too slow.

Activating her communicator. Understood Cosmo, we are on our way there as fast as we can, be carefull something is going down with SAP and I don't think they will be too happy to see you.
Once she deactivates her communticator she will go over and check out the duplicate Johan, if there is anything she can do for him, she will do it. If not (more then likely) she will instruct Rebound to drive to the hospital.
Come on Tara, we have to go help Cosmo and Straightjacket. She tells her as she opens the side door.

"I offered to try before," Empath says. "You weren't ready to let me then. But to answer your question," she says just before the world spins away in a whirlpool of color.
It solidifies again shortly after, leaving you standing in a huge room. Ten feet away stands Dara, her eyes closed. A silver line of energy connects the two of you. Around the outside of the room, memories, images, thoughts and ideas circle, those of Dara and yourself, mixed together in a jumble. Empath looks at various thoughts and memories and they flit to one side or the other. Once in a while she asks you if a particular mental image is yours or Dara's, but always sends it to one side or another without you answering. With each sifted memory, you find the distance between you and Dara growing, straining the connection. After what seems to be a day, the line is stretched razor thin as Empath sends the final image flitting to Dara's side of the hall.
She grabs the line with her hands, sending a wave of nausea through you, and with a sudden tug, snaps the line and the world swirls back to reality.
You stare blankly at Empath for a moment before she vanishes away from the bottom of your vision. Then the roof of the main house does the same and you see blue sky and clouds before someone grabs you from behind and sets you down on the ground. You feel dazed, dizzy, a bit empty and your body is quite numb.
"Gotcha," Carl says.
"Yes, I can," Empath continues her sentence. "How do you feel, Raisa?" she asks.

Kevin's belongings are not in his room, so someone must have already packed them off.

The duplicate is simply unconscious as far as you can tell. He's breathing perfectly normally. In fact, he looks better than Loki who is sleeping fitfully now, still coming down off his drug induced mind-buzz.
"No way," Rebound says. "If you're going to SAP headquarters, that's where I'm going. Those two can sleep it off in the van. We're already down to half strength anyway, and you want to make our numbers even lower?"

The robot seems to think about your question a moment before figuring out an answer.
"The communication channel within this vault does not use the South American Pharmaceuticals communication network, and therefore is not monitored as normal communications from within the building are," it says finally. "Outside numbers may be dialed as normal from this terminal."
"Help help help!" the assistant cries out from within the lab. You see her dragging Vida from the table you had set her on to the floor, though you can't see the reason why. With a crash, Vida lands on top of the assistant. The robot seems to stand a bit taller suddenly and its gun comes back to life.
"Security field breech," it intones. "Orders?"

The three workers and the supervisor all continue to gape at you, and thankfully don't move. The lights dim above you suddenly and your hair parts as a warm wind, accompanied by a whuffle sound, blows down onto you. A low growl eminates from above and behind you, then a second one. Instinct takes over and you dive forward just fast enough to avoid the clubbing blows of two huge wooden clubs that smash into the floor with dull thuds where you were standing a moment ago.
The two headed ogre stands, his head brushing the ceiling, already advancing towards you and the SAP employees. Behind him, you see a bundle of wires stringing along behind him. One of the workers points and stammers out, "MONSTER!" then turns and slams face first into the glass window, bouncing back and falling to the floor unconscious. A second worker faints. The third is frozen in fear, while the supervisor still appears ready to make a break for the door. Of course, you now understand why...
By the way, you really missed your spot check last round. Luckily, the ogre really missed you. You are up, then the ogre, then the supervisor.

After packing, X12 collapses onto the bed, finally too tired to fight the anger, pain, frustration, and exhaustion from the day's effort.
"I hate you, Father," he mutters, staring up at the ceiling. "He was mine, and you took him away....
I wish you were dead...
He didn't deserve to die like that...
You do."

"Woah..."
Johan first checks if he has wires coming from him. Then he checks if the virtual sword has followed with him to the real world. If the sword is there, he will move to pick it up and then figure out the relevance of the wires.
If the sword isn't there, then he will try to figure out if the wires are actually relelevant to the ogre's existance here, or if those just happen to be dangling from it. If they seem relevant, he will try to unplug the ogre (or the computers, if that would seem like an easier task). If they don't seem relevant, Johan will concentrate fully on avoiding the clubs (Total Defense).
In any case, he will continue insulting the beast. "I was really hoping I wouldn't have to see you again. Or, more precisely, I was hoping I wouldn't have to smell you again."

Fine, I don't have time to argue, just make sure they are safe. You coming Tara or do you want to stay with Rebound? Michelle asks the girl.
Activating her forcefield Michelle will fly our of the van, raise up into the air and head straight towards the SAP building.
