You move about, your currently reduced powers making the process slower, but infinitely more tolerable for you. Plus the new uniform seems quite effective at keeping you from becoming soaked in blood. As you help one of the victims from the collapse in the foyer, another, older doctor walks by and immediately stops."I told you, room A3 first! If you don't treat her wounds, she'll be dead in minutes! There's nothing we can do for her," he says in a panic, gesturing at one of the rooms with a curtain drawn across it. You are certain he didn't give you any instructions before, though it is obvious he believes he did.JayTrailblazer is busy speaking with one of the hospital administrators, and seeing that he looks exceedingly stressed and obviously is without your weapon, you choose to leave him be. Empath is still being looked at by Mystic, Titan is in Emergency and Kodiak is being looked over by a nurse for his obvious wounds. The chinese girl, Dara you think you heard her called, is sitting groggily on a chair with Raisa pacing nearby like a caged animal. Michael sits across from Dara, watching Raisa pace back and forth.The rubble seems to have simply vanished, and most of the injured are already taken care of or in emergency. Carl leans against the wall by the windows at the front of the hospital, or what's left of them. He has a rather impressive weapon holstered at his hip, and is examining another, very familiar weapon at the moment...Brazilia Medical FacilityOctober 14, 2120 Sanjay, Michelle"She is being taken care of. She'll be fine after a few days of rest. Titan flew my brother down to..." Thunder retorts to the woman."Oh good, the responsible one of the family is here," the woman jabs at him. "Now where is my daughter," she demands."Our... she's resting," Thunder snaps back. "Or still trying to change back to human.""Well, just get her boyfriend to pay her a visit," the woman says with a throaty chuckle. "I know he's here; I saw him on the news. Cosmo, wasn't it? Maybe I should go find him and he can take me to her," she says, and with a strong leap she is standing on the second floor railing overlooking the cafeteria. "I'm sure only half the hospital will be awake by the time I find her!" she calls down.Fortunately for Sanjay, neither Thunder nor Monica's mother seem to take much interest in him, nor in Michelle and Tara."Well," Tara says to Michelle. "That kind of answers one or two things about Monica, wouldn't you say?""Damnit, Tyra," Thunder says, electricity forming about him and bearing him aloft. "Do you have to always be so dramatic? She's in recovery, and I swear if you create any sort of ruckus every hair on your body will be standing on end and you'll be sucking dirt from the floor." He sets down close to her and sets off towards recovery."I don't think he likes her too much," Tara says. "Just a hunch."Vince"A flight is not going to happen," your father says sternly. "Anymore than you being able to take over the business, whatever form it may take," he says with a glare at Ms. Vaile, "looking like that. Your mother and I have tried to be supportive, but we can't have the face of the corporation scaring children in the streets. And the chance of either of the twins taking over the business," he adds with a shake of his head. "Genetically, neither have your intellect or affinity for the necessary sciences that you have.""Personally, I find Vincent's appearance rather distinctive and unintimidating," Ms. Vaile says simply. While you get the feeling she is being honest, you also have the nagging suspicion that she is trying to keep your father off balance and aggravated.Somewhere in CyberspaceYou zip down the corridor and come into a massive chamber, filled floor to ceiling with cabinets which in turn are filled with files. At the front of the several rows and floors is a desk with a holographic interface. Floating above the interface is a miniature version of the Mag-Lev. You find it humerous when you realize what it is... a visual representation of a search engine.It takes you a few minutes to find the file you are searching for and give the information to the search engine. The little Mag-Lev zips off towards the third floor and you run to follow it. You get up there and it is hovering over an open drawer. Under it is the file you are seeking.First Name: JessicaLast Name: UnknownINFORMATION CLASSIFIEDIt takes you some time, several long minutes in fact, before you crack the encryption codes. Some of the file remains security locked with a data-lock that would take you a long time to crack, but some useful information is present.Capture Data: Captured by members of EPIC on EPIC grounds during a raid by the mercenary Split and his company.Mutant Information: Mutant appears to have the ability to merge with computer systems and software, physically entering the digital realm. This gives her a dangerous ability to hack information systems and computerized databases, along with the ability to travel covertly among them. Bypassing security is obviously not a problem as EPIC has an M-Tac classifed Level 5 security system in place.The mutant also has several key physical systems replaced by fiber optics and nanobot systems. This provides the mutant with the ability to datalink with computerized and mechanical systems, and the electromagnetic field she naturally generates gives her the power to control and even animate mechanical devices to do her bidding. This power seems to be driven on base instinct.Of interest, DNA testing proves the age of the female subject to be roughly 14 years. This makes the subject the youngest documented case of mutation currently on file anywhere in the world. Due to the danger this subject poses, it is recommended that she and any other mutant found to have powers of a similar nature be kept in stasis indefinitely until a defense can be found against their powers, or terminated if a defense cannot be found in a reasonable time period.A crash of a file cabinet toppling over behind you startles you and stops your data perusal for a moment. The miniature Mag-Lev lets out a whistle of alarm and streaks off with amazing alacrity. You whirl about and see a man walk over the cabinet. He is faceless, with some sort of smooth helmet and face shield over his head, and a pair of energy tendrils where his hands should be. They writhe on the floor as he moves. One of the security protocols has found you. A thunk of something landing behind you tells you he is not alone...Initiatives: Johan 34, SP1 31, SP2 30Your powers work normally for you here, save that rather than making gadgets, you simply make them appear. Your current gadget, if memory serves me, is a hold device? Correct me if I'm wrong. Combat in Cyberspace: Mental attacks, defense and willpower saves are used rather than normal saves. You get some bonus' to damage that I'll explain if you hit something <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
