Mutant High Issue 2: A Hard Lesson

Miranda smirked. "I seriously doubt they are using the front door. Considering that message, I'm willing to bet they decided to make a big hole in the wall."

"Not into or out of the building. The entire area." (I think her tactics is +22 after Eric's boost)

She turns toward Cyclops, "What are your options for negotiation?"

"Well considering that they have Nightcrawler working for them, I'm pretty sure they will be teliporting out when things get to hairy... that is assuming he's conscious and able to teliport. Not to mention they already used that stratagy two times."

Miranda sighed, "Oh yeah, in all the excitement Kitty, Pyro and I didn't mention that he joined Quicksilver on that kidnapping mission. So, I won't be too surprised if they decide to return to the school to finish the job..."

As Erik unleashes his power, Serena feels the boost, causing her to glow brighter, the tendrils become more energetic, whipping around her as another joins the first one cutting through the glowing 'chains' binding cerebro.

She twists her hand, splaying them out towards the kid and a bright arc of power twists from it, spreading out from the ground and shooting up, forming a translucent 'wall' between her and the cyborg kid. Right now, she's more interested in freeing Cerebro. The AI certainly knows more about the school's mechanical and electronic defense system than she does.

In the real world, another message scrolls on the nearby screen.

Cyborg kid attempting to hack school computer. Cerebro is blocked. Am attempting to boot kid and unblock/protect Cerebro. Will not be able to respond until threat or self is eliminated. Wish me luck.

Hero point to do both actions.

"Nightcrawler has only been operating with one other person. Quicksilver has his own mobility power and doesn't seem very heavy. Clearly, it's possible that he has the ability to teleport a large group and has been holding back. But it's not a power displayed thus far. Plus, I'd want a bit more redundancy in my escape plan."

"Hmm."

"Nightcrawlers teleportaion ability is, so far as I know, not all that long range either. He tends to travel in spurts. If he was there with Quicksilver to capture Nicholas, then he may not be heading to the school. There's a good chance they'll just take him back to base and leave the school to whoever's allready attacking it." Cyclops stops as the message from Serena scrolls. "Damit.. Keep an eye on her, we're almost there.. I just hope 'there' is still There.

Pyro grins at Miranda and leans in close, whispering to her as the others talk "My name's John. He then leans back and looks at the others "There's also the possibility that the reason we've only seen Nightcrawler with Quicksilver is because Nightcrawler doesn't agree with certain aspects of their plans.. from what I've heard, he's supposed to be a pretty good guy. Maybe they're not telling him everything? Like what the guys attacking the school are gonna be doing?"

- Cyberspace -
Cerebro strains against the chains as Serena lashes out at them, and one of them snaps. The Cyborg studies the wall for a moment. "Forcefield preventing retaliation. Neutralizing." It presses both its hands against the wall and shatters it.

*OOC: Shayuri, you still around?*
 

Serena moves her hand again and motes of 'light' drip down, forming another wall of energy, this time looking almost liquid in appearence. Concealed inside is a hard, translucent, electric shell. She plans on using this to 'electricute' him.

"I can do this all day, how about you? I'm sure you're buddies in the real world need you." Serena catcalls.

ooc:
Using her abilities to try to turn him off or at least boot him out of the system.

Oooo. Evil thought. Was wondering if contact, even mild contact with Cebero will change her? Open up new paths or aspects of her power. Am hoping to get the TK ability using the air ionized by electricity to 'lift things'

Miranda found herself wondering which of Pyro's names she would call out in an intimate moment and if it really mattered to him. Unexpectedly, Miranda's thoughts began to wander down a excited path while her body subconsciously reverted into its ghostly form and seemed to melt into her seat's surface in what Dr. MacCoy would characterize as being an unsettling and precarious demonstration of relativistic principles.

She then noticed that staring at Pyro and nervously began to giggle. "So um... anyways, you know, you just gave me an idea. " She noticed a questioning glance or two from her companion, "Well um, if what you said is true, we could exploit his misgivings and maybe persuade Nightcrawler to switch sides." Miranda bit her lip, "But, that might require us to convince him that some atrocities were committed by his allies before it could work, and hopefully there wouldn't be any." She paused for a moment then sighed, "Unfortunately, since my idea is so dependent on alot of different factors that it might not be worth even discussing at the moment, or at least until we know about the conditions at the school."
 

(Trying to be, Jemal...trying to be. Seems like all my hours are blueshifting on me...)

Calypso nods at Phase gratefully.

"That'd be appreciated," she says to him.

She then lifts her hands, and surges forward on a wave of water that gushes into the cafeteria proper, batting tables and benches away before it.

Ice is too brittle for Juggernaut, she thinks. But maybe if can surround him with liquid water...

With a sweeping motion, she sends a torrent of water at the hulking supervillain, attempting to trap him in a globe of liquid!

(Using Create Object on him. Reflex DC 20, PL is 10. Not sure how that works with a "liquid object" but it should be interesting to see. :) Will use the water around her to deflect as many incoming attacks as she can...+10 base bonus.)
 

After the unconscious ones are tied up, Spike will inspect the place they were protecting, wondering if there are any more baddies to be handled, and if there was anything else that needed to be done...

Then he sees the phone, and gets an idea....

"Hey Logan, wanna have some fun with these jerks?"

Spike then checks the message, and sees if he can find any other numbers or names from the cell. Previous calls, etc. Hopefully, the last text would show the origin of the message, in number form. Then, he forwards the number to the school and anyone else, hoping that they can then trace the number to some place or location.
 

"She seems fine right now. If she can keep the cyborg distracted, he should be easier to kill or disable." Hopefully.

Temper waves the compass around Serena, checking to see if her active electrical power disturbs the needle.
