MutantHigh Episode2: Russians and Fishmen?!

The water bubbles ferociously.

As the bubbles reaches the surface, Clair pulls his head out of the sink. Sighing, he grabs a towel and dries his face off. "Well that bit of conversation never really got started, maybe I am a boor." He says as he looks at himself in the mirror, with a little contempt in his eyes.

Leaving the bathroom, Clair pulls himself back up on his bed, I wonder what the others are up to? He thinks as he opens his biology book once again, the page showing various pictures of marine life, "Why do we have to have so many assignments during the first week of school! I'm working here while everyone else is probably having fun on the beach."

Mildly annoyed, Clair lies down on his bed, stretching out with the book in hand.

Cut back to underwater scene...

The furtherest thig from Eris's mind at the moment is school work, as she tries to deal with her more immediate problems. She tries again to strike out at fish boy again as she thinks about the absurdity of the situation, she wasn't that far from shore, shouldn't they have hit the bottom by now?. Instead of striking out twice in quick succession she aims more carefully to make sure of a hit, at the same time, she tried to use her improved dexterity to slip out of the things grip. (+9 to attack, damage bonus 10, the other half action is an escape artist attempt 1D20+13, using a hero point to re-roll on a failure.)
 

This is bad, Joey surges forward with great speed at the first of two that are facing him, but then charges toward the other being holding Eris and strikes at it with a swimming charge, if possible moving by it another 20 feet or so.

Joey can charge 140 feet in the water, and with Move-By Attack he can attack and continue to move, he is using Power Attack (+2/-2), as well, total attack is +7 (-2 from power Attack, +2 from Charge), his damage total is +13S. His defense for this round 15, -2 from charge, but +1 from Underwater Combat. he will activate his Water Shield as well witha free action, giving him an automatic 8 protection versus any physical damage. His damage save beyond that is +2. For his move by attack he will try and move as far as possible, hopefully giving Eris enough time to getaway.
 

Michael is in his room doing his homework. By now he's finished with his French and moved on to the rest of it. Stretches his arms to take a bit of a break.

"Oh, hey Clair. You didn't go to the beach with the rest of them?"

When it's dr Garcia's turn Jonothan takes off the wrapps and shows the Doctor the boiling mass of energy that makes up much of his body, My powers aren't much good for anything but blasting things Doc.

Clair shrugs, "Too much work on the first day to go gallavanting off, I guess. Besides, I'm a little edgy around people who are friendly to people like us...mutants-it just doesn't feel right, y'know?"

Awkward silence following tiny pieces of conversation, not good. He thinks as he shuts his history book.

Clair begins to start speaking, but stumbles as to what to say, but regains his composure and continues on, "I heard you playing your guitar earlier, you sound really good-like proffesional, or something. I've always wanted to pick it up, myself, but I've never found the time. Have you been taking lessons for a long time?"

Jack sits in his room, listening to one of his favorite CD's, Be not Nobody, by Vanessa Carlton.

He is pondering the things that happened at school earlier that day. "Truth?" He asks, wondering if the mysterious hacker was always listening in.

"Thanks. I've been in my father's choir all my life until recently. I've been studying the guitar for almost four years now though. I study one hour a day, except on weekends. I certainly don't consider myself a professional though.

"If you'd like I can teach you how to play."

The underwater fight:
The creature holding Eris is hit again and barely holds on. She wriggles free of its grasp at that moment and starts swimming upwards again. She can see the light far above her but she is not that far down, the creatures pulled her further out into the sea while they pulled her down. Her lungs start to burn but she manages to hold her breath.
Joey rushed forward and the two opponents in his way strike at him with their claws. One misses the fast moving form and the other can't even penetrate the watershield surounding Joey. He reaches the one who held Eris and strikes at it. Together with her attack with proves too much for it. It drifts away a few feet from the force of the impact and then starts to sink downwards.
