the beach halfway from Haven to the city

Jack and Katie are the only ones left on the beach and while they sit and talk they suddenly hear the loud noise of an engine and giant silver truck breaks from the street and races right towards the beach. Both barely manage to jump aside while the truck screeches to a halt and two figures are thrown right through the windshield. One of them looks like the driver of the car, the other is Patriot, his mask half torn from the shards of the window. They are caught in a crapple and fly for nearly ten meters before they hit the sand hard. The driver stops moving after that but Patriot slowly gets up again. More engines are heard and three black jeeps appear on the road, each one with a machine gun mounted on it. Men in miltary clothes and armed with assault rifles drive on them. They shout something that sounds a lot like Russian and open fire, spraying the beach with bullets.

She leans on the table and studies you curiously.
"Mister Starsmore you must be one of the most bitter persons I have ever met, believe me then I tell you that it is not worth the energy you put into it. I know that better than most people."

Holy S#*t!!! Patriot! What's going on?!
Sounds the mental cry, as Jack races towards the older man.

Jono, chuckles briefly at that, Bitter? Yeah i'm damn bitter. Hlf my body is blown to crap, my bloody girlfriend is there when it happens, now she's in wheel chair for the rest of her life, not that it matters now even if she didn't hate me for what happened we still can't be together. I can baerly pass for human in world that hates mutants, i can't eat, drink, breath, speak. Bitter hardly scratches the surface. his tone remains cool and matter of fact though out this, it's clear he's not angry. Anyway, i think you're a good egg, love. I may as well stick around a bit, maybe help out if you need it.

Jack feels a moment of confusion as he reaches for Patriots mind but as soon as he understands what's happening he begins to concentrate on images. To Jack it seems that the men is used to comunicating with telepaths and knows how to send a lot of information in the fastest way possible. He immediatly knows that these men are from Grimson Pride, Russian mutant hunters. Possibly the second best in the world. Patriot wants both of you out of the firing line and you see the image of a container in the back of the truck he wants you to open. He wants you to be there so your in cover too and he intends to take care of the three jeeps on his own.
He slowly rises and you can see that he was barely even cut by the windshield and his hands begin to burn.

Jack give Patriot a quick nod, leaving the 'line of communication' between them open (<- Group Link again). Then, he reaches out to Cypher; C'mon Katie, Patriot wants us to shelter in the truck!, and uses his Ectoplasm to create a wall to shield her from the Russians while she approaches.

 

[KitanaVorr]

There's barely a pause as Katie spins around to her feet, the sand rippling away from her to fly in the air as she crouches low. Every nerve on her body screams to attention as the adrenalin rushes through her.

The bullets, the car crashing, the death - all of that occurs around her, leaving the young woman shocked. Her life had never been violent like this. Everything so peaceful - although she was used to taking ridiculous risks.

"Patriot!" she calls out as Jack rushes toward him - uncertainty in her voice - unsure of what she could do but she as she saw Patriot's hands burn, Katie had a strong feeling what he was about to do.

When Jack's words echoed to her, Katie nods at him, moving quickly toward the truck.

There is a slurping sound as the ectoplasmic wall is hit by gunfire but it holds most of it of. Some shots penetrate it and the bullets draw lines of sline after them but they are no real danger. Jack and Katie reach the back of the truck and can see the hatch is locked. They hear one of the jeeps getting closer as it drives to the other side to get at them. The others jump out of their cars and there is a lot of gunfire and explosions from the place there they fight Patriot.

 

[Robbert Raets]

Jack grabs Katie by the arm and rushes to the truck's cabin, checking if the can get in, otherwise he'll grab the keys from the ignition and run back to open the hatch.

 

[KitanaVorr]

Katie reaches into her pocket and pulls out her cell phone as Jack pulls her into the cabin. "Ok - now what?" she asks, her mind mentally dialing faster than her fingers in the wake of her fear.

Someone at the institute should be able to help us!
