for a moment…”Kelly’s mother blinks, “Oh my god… Kelly… Kelly… oh my god,” she bursts into tears, “I am so sorry… I can’t con-”“She has no control,” Legion replies regaining control laughing through her tears.  He turns to look at the metallic sheen of the wall as the area crackles with ozone, “Your mother is a beautiful woman.  She has beautiful genes.  Truly a classic beauty with a petulant daughter, too good to settle down with her true love…”“What do I get if I give her back to you,” Legion replies pulling a pistol, “how far will you go to save the life of your mother?”CassieRed Witch laughs loudly, her shrill laughter echoing in the large room.  She stands and an ebony staff forms in her hand, a large fist sized crimson jewel glowing, giving the room a sinister red hue.  She shakes her head, “Mortals… you watch them for countless millennia, and yet they learn nothing.  You look at me and believe that I am trying to convince you to see as I do… as if I need you.  No, I do not need you.  But if you wish to survive the fate ahead of you, you will need me.”“Your precious human history is a cycle, a cycle of violence punctuated by brief seasons of peace.  That is what I see… but you want to know why you exist, you want to see how you came to this time… this place.  I could show you… but all knowledge comes with a price.  A price you would have to pay, but I promise you knowledge… you will know why you have come to be,” she says enticingly.Battling the STARsInitiative: Mark 52, Anika 25, Cyber-Ape X 18, Kiyana 17, Charlotte 16, STAR Units 13, Karen 4Mark unleashes another whirlwind of blurring strikes, his fury growing as he takes down seven more of the newcomer STARs, truly his speed is just too much for the sophisticated STAR units to handle!Three STAR units make their Toughness saves with a roll of 26, 27, and 25.  The rest are out of the fight!Anika shields her eyes as large beast like figure flashes into view.  It looks like a massive ape of silver metal.  It stands at ten feet easily on its legs beating its metallic chest with a fury!  When it rests for a moments its long arms are decidedly ape like and it settles its vision on the blurring form of Mark!It leaps in the air and slams the ground with terrible force leaping clear over the blonde elite and crashing into the ground with devastating force!  All of the STAR units fall to the ground knocked down by the tremendous area attack!  All of the Legacy teens are knocked to the ground except Karen, and the portal closes as Anika loses her concentration!Groundtrike attack by the Cyber-Ape X!  Mark rolls a Reflex save to halve the effect he gets a 34 and fails, he rolls a 23 Dexterity check is knocked prone!  Karen rolls a 45, her sturdy body is still standing!  Charlotte rolls a 23 and 22 reflex save and fails and then rolls a 20 and 21 dexterity check versus trip and is knocked prone as well, both her and her unattached limb.  Anika rolls 16 Reflex save to halve the Trip effect and fails.  She rolls a 12 Dexterity check and is also tripped.  She rolls a 13 Concentration check and fails… the portal closes!  Kiyana is knocked down with a Strength check of 16 total!Kiyana stands, and focuses changing her body into a watery form, “Anika, you alright?”  The large metallic ape stands about 15 feet from Mark, but well within range for any teen to get to him quickly if they need to.Charlotte’s turn… I sense changes may be coming in light of the recent events!Ryan and GildenInitiative: Ryan 21, Tina 17, Gilden 16, Sparky-1000 11, Star 11Ryan slams home with his corrosion power as he rushes forward.  The robotic beast is struck but the blow literally bounces off the automaton!  Leaving only a slight crack in the metallic sheen of its sculpted structure!Ryan rolls a 22 strike, Sparky-1000 rolls a 26 save and then roll a 24 Toughness save, it is only Bruised + Injured.  Tina rolls a 25 attack using Power Attack +5/-5 and All-Out Attack +5/-5, but the robotic dog rolls a 28 damage save!Tina rushes forward and rears back for a powerful punch as well, trying to knock the beats off its feat!  But the blow barely seems to register even the sound rings loudly through the hall.Gilden unleashes a magical blast and narrowly misses as the arcane energy slams into the wall behind the artificial canine!  Sparky-1000 rears back and unleashes a terrifyingly powerful howl!  The blast rips through the teens scrambling their hearing and nerves… Ryan can still move but he can’t hear a thing!  Both Gilden and Tina suffer far worse!Auditory Dazzle and Paralyze effect from the howl in a cone shaped area blast!  Ryan rolls a 21 versus the Dazzle, he is Deaf now, but rolls a 31 versus the paralyze effect and is fine!  Tina rolls a 30 and evades the Dazzle effect but her Will save is a 12 and she is paralyzed from the terrifying sound!  Gilden rolls a 19 and is Deaf!  His Will save is a 9 and he is also Paralyzed!  Star seems immune to the effect.Star shouts, “This isn’t good, Ryan we need a plan!”  Of course Ryan and Gilden can’t hear this…  Star unleashes a blast from her arm cannon!  But the blast glances off the metallic beast with nary a scratch!Star rolls a 25 and Sparky-1000 rolls a 32 and is unharmed!</blockquote>
