Ok. Some goons, about what I thought. Strength. Bigger than I thought. Mark ends his mental inventory and puts his comm to good use. "Strength is with us on the ground floor. Why don't you guys come through the floors?"
Mark makes for one of the machine gun-toting henchmen.
OOC: Run-by attack. Saving the hero points to shrug off damage.
Mark rolls a 28, the thug rolls a 5, and he is knocked clean out.
Mark dashes through the thugs faster then they can see and ends up on the other side of the room closer to where Yoshi is standing, before the thug lands on the ground his eyes crossed and his form limp. Four out of the seven standing thugs fire their submachine guns in bursts at Mark while the other three focus on Yoshi! But the nimble elites easily evade the incoming bullets, in an orgy of bullet time gymnastics... the thugs move back 20 feet and take cover behind tables, their backs exposed to the stairs.
The thugs make a variety of auto fire attacks but miss horribly, and then move to take 1/2 cover to Yoshi and Mark.
The Mistress smiles, "Oh you must be the pretty boy Mark," her voice is seductive and entrancing, "Mmm you look simply delicious..." she winks.
The Mistress attempts to Taunt Mark, she rolls a 24, and Mark gets a 14 on his Taunt check to resist. He suffers a -4 penalty to his attacks for next round.
She then casually glances to Yoshi and just winks, as a pulse of energy leaps from her mind , forming into an angelic figure dressed in white and red, with a terrible flaming sword, it heads straight at the spinning elite. The creature slashes at the spinning elite with a thunderous roar. Yoshi stops spinning, as his body flies out of control and slams into the wall, and he collapses, blood seeping from his ears, nose, and mouth...
Mistress launched an Illusion at Yoshi, she rolled a 27 to strike. Yoshi rolled a 5 for his damage save, and then an HP was used but a 7 was rolled. he takes a 10 on the roll and is now Disabled.
Mistress smiles sweetly, "Oops..."
Strength flexes his clothes bulging and ripping as he charges straight at Mark, "Now you shall join your comrade!" his huge bulk coming right at the nimble elite! His fist comes at Mark in slow motion, but he nimbly evades the punch, as Strength scowls, narrowing his eyes.
Strength charges at Mark, and rolls a total roll of 24, he misses. A villain Point was used as well. He covered 50 feet in his charge.
Yoshi coughs up blood, "Ouch..." he lays against the wall, for a second before standing, stumbling to stay on his feet. He spins his arm quickly, and then does a punching motion sending a powerful air wave straight at Mistress! The Angel fades away, as the blast knocks the Mistress off her back 40 feet into a stack of chairs and tables!
Yoshi spits up blood, "Bitch..."
Yoshi spends a Hero Point to do a strenuous action. He uses Air Ram on the Mistress and rolls a 24 strike. She gets a 16 Damage Save, and takes a Stun Hit and is stunned!
Then
*SPLASH!* Ryan and Kiyana fall through the ceiling right in the midst of the thugs, with their sub-machineguns. Kiyana blinks, "uh oh..."
Meanwhile upstairs...
James move forward to try an strike, but the fog obscures his vision, and he dashes past where he hopes Black Heaven is standing but hits nothing but air! Meanwhile Star raises her gun arm, "I can't see, my sensors are being obscured by this mist."
She fires a blast but it goes wide, of the mark and rips through a wall! She moves towards the wall, trying to find a window...
James rolls a 24, but Black Heaven gets a 17 on his Miss Chance and is not struck by the attack. A Hero Point was not spent on James' behalf. Star makes an attack but gets an 18, and misses as well.
Black Heaven speaks calmly, he seems to have moved from where he was, "Now look what you have made me do. I will apologize in advance for any pain you will suffer in the next few moments..." The next thing that James feels is horrible electrical power surging through his body...
James loses his Dodge bonus to Black Heaven because he can't see his opponent. Black Heaven uses Rapid Shot on James and hits him with two Lightning Bolts. His first damage save is a 13, and his second is a 7.

Jimmy nods, “Hey there is nothing trivial about your life, if anything you are probably one of the most interesting people here at the school. I mean damn, you are from the future, right? That in and of itself, makes you pretty damn cool.”
Jimmy finishes his meal, “Hey what do you got planned for the evening?”
