Heal him! HEAL HIM!
‘I will help all I can, hon,’ Brandon replied . . . in his head. ‘Back away from Carbon and I, let us go to work. You’re just hurting yourself next to us’

"Kev-, blast me again and power down . . . or get into the air so you don’t hurt anyone," Phoenix called out.

OOC: Brandon will lower his initiative to equal to Carbon so he can be blasted again and act fully. Absorb what he can (free action), then heal Steve.

Lightspeed, 3/4, 0S/0L, hopping mad

His face twisted into a quite un-Chris-like snarl, Lightspeed tears towards the unidentified blur, pushing the limits of his incredible speed. His fists move at dizzying speed as he pummels his foe repeatedly with lightning-fast strikes, lashing out in a frenzy of rage and grief over the state of his team-mates.

OOC:[Free action]: Dodge vs. everyone. Defense is 26.
[Free action]: Double my movement for the round with Extra Effort. I'll spend a Hero Point to avoid fatigue.
[Half action]:Move 100ft towards the blur. (Or more, if necessary, up to a maximum of 140ft.)
[Half action]: Attack the blur. Attack +7, damage +9S.

Kevin looks at Brandon, nods, and blasts him again. He then says, "okay, I'll see what I can do elsewhere." Kevin takes off, going straight up. As he lifts off, he looks at Brandon, "Hey, am I completely defenseless without that armor?? Am I in like serious trouble here?"

OOC:
1) Blast Brandon
2) Move straight up 40'

I'm assuming Kevin doesn't copy the armor Brandon wears because its a "device" and not a power per se.

"You'll notice you're a little quicker, more agile, that's about it," Brandon replied, turning his concentration to healing Steve.
 

Initiative: Attacker-26, Lightspeed - 24, Tornado - 23(1 rounds away from group), Karma - 21, WildCats – 19, Whisper - 17, Aztec - 12, Longhorn - 11(+7 init mod), Carbon - 10, Phoenix – 10, Leprechaun- 9, Banjax 7

Attacker, Lightspeed, Tornado, Banjax:

The blur continually shifts colors and you find you have difficulty keeping track of what you can now tell is the humanoid shape. The creature continues to streak away from you, moving only slightly less fast than you can. He is heading for the wall. At a flat run Lightspeed overtakes the man barely 20 feet from the wall and takes up a position at the base of the wall. One glowing fist and feral grin ready to greet the attacker.

OOC: The blur is moving at 240 ft/round. Lightspeed can run at 560 ft/run but can only double move 140. The blur moves first placing him 340 feet from Lightspeed. Using extra effort is no help here because Lightspeed would still be 30 ft behind his target. I changed your action to what I thought Chris might do. We can discuss in the opposite thread if you would like Synchronicity.

Tornado is being left behind as the two speedsters tear across the grass. The armored WildCat squad is some distance away having had to change their pursuit angles but close enough to squeeze off shots from their arm cannons. All three dance around the bluring target burning deep furrows into the ground.

OOC: Wildcat 1, 2,3 attacks of 10, 4, -4(nat 1) all miss.

In the halls of North Shore (Longhorn, Karma, Aztec):
As Karma and Aztec come charging down the hall they find Longhorn picking herself back up off the ground. In the air in the middle of the hall stands a shimmering field. There is a small metal disc sitting on the opposite side of the field.

Spots vs DC 15- Longhorn 9, Karma 18, Aztec 15. Longhorn prone when hit force field, move action to stand.

Courtyard (Carbon, Phoenix, Leprechaun, Whisper):
Lindsey barely backs away tears barely suppressed. She leans down and holds Steve’s hand.

Whoosh!

Super-heated air rolls back from the burst of fire that covers Phoenix. Carbon’s Brandon face lifts off of the ground and soars up into the air as Brandon the original gently lays a hand on Leprechaun’s chest.

OOC: Leprechaun Con (+8 from healing) check vs DC 20 is 16 fails. HP spent is 21. Succeeds. Leprechaun is Unconcious.
A somewhat surprised Phoenix finds himself wrapped in the arms of Lindsey. Her tears fall down and boil off his suit like rain onto an Arizona street.

Thank You, Thank You, Thank You.

A kiss on your cheek and a sense of joy and gratitude that defies words wash over Brandon as he unthinkingly returns Whisper’s hug.
 

"What the hell is this, I thought this was suppoused to be our base, how come the bad gus get all the cool toys?" Lucy exclaims, giving a crooked grin. "We'd better go around, try another way or something." She'll sprint back the way they had come, and take a different turn that will lead along a parellel hallway, or to a door that leads to outside.

OOC:Continuing sprint.

Brandon blushed, somewhat embarassed at the gratitude. He felt warmth, a different warmth than he has had to endure since that eventful day. He returned the hug with gratitude of his own before his concern for her safety got the better of him. Brandon gently pulled away, his flaming eyes unable to reveal emotions that played through his mind.

'You are welcome, Lindsay. I'll always help if I am able,' Brandon replied in thought. Continuing in voice, "Steve and you have been through a lot the last few seconds. I don't want to wake him just yet if I don't have to. Can you watch over him while I help out with the others?"

Brandon glanced around as he spoke, looking for trouble, making certain that this wasn't a diversion.
 

"We're on the same path Chris took," Linda says, quickly picking herself up. "So someone put this up after he passed. And from the looks of that disc, from the other side. I'm interested in finding out who and gettin' to Chris quickly." With that, her hands glow and she launches a double handed overhead blow directly in front of the disc, focusing all her energy into the punch.

Power attack for full (+4), and I'm guessing I don't need to hit a wall of force. That would be strike +8 with DC of 30.

And I'll still be mostly without computer access for the next week. /sigh

Near the wall.
The blur comes sliding to a stop. It is most defiantly a man but his entire shape seems to fade into the background as you look at him. “Get outta my way child! I don’t want to hurt anyone, ja?”

“I do” escapes Chris’s lips in little more than growl. Lightspeed shoots forward slamming his fist into the man’s jaw snapping his head back.

OOC: Attack of 27(nat 20) hits 16 fails to confirm. Attackers DMG save vs DC 24 is 22. Fails by 2. 1 stun

“Your death, child.” Two tiny pieces of metal appear from the wavering form, one of which nicks Lightspeed’s dodging chest.

OOC: Attacks of 22/32 miss and hit. Lightspeed’s DMG save vs DC 24 is 30. Saves.

The 3 battle suits let loose a barrage of blasts again, the distance is too great but they are quickly closing.

OOC: Attacks of 15, 19, 6 miss.

Hallway (Longhorn, Karma, Aztec):
Karma and Aztec begin to sprint back down the hallway looking for a different path when Longhorn’s glowing pink fist overpowers the force field. A soft hiss and smoke come from the broken disc.

As the 3 girls begin to move forward they hear the sound of footsteps ahead of them as the round a corner they see a middle aged Asian man running towards them. “Where is the medic needed?”

Aztec continues to move on but Longhorn doesn’t see a kit with him and Karma can feel something wrong in her gut. A look passes between Karma and Longhorn. Something isn’t right.
OOC: Asian Man Bluff – 18, Sense Motives- Aztec- 13, Karma -24, Longhorn 21.

Courtyard:
Carbon flies quickly to north dodging quickly from the side to side, testing his new agility.
I’ll take care of him. Tha…thank you again. Lindsey smiles a very warm smile at Brandon.

As Brandon looks around he sees Lt. Col. Savage come out of the building with Major Caldwell. Both have rifles up as the clear the corner. As soon as they clear the area they come up to the group.

“What happened, soldier?” Caldwell’s drill instructor bark is directed at Brandon. Savage is checking on Steve.
