"Here, birdie, birdie, birdie," she sings softly with a toothy grin.Looking down and seeing Minotaur charging in their direction, Screaming Eagle taps the AF symbol on the breast of her uniform.  "You two try and neutralize the big guy, hopefully it's not too late to try and reason with the others."  She continues to fly towards the farmhouse.Strafe, his back to the farmhouse, looks down at a devise he's holding.  "Goddamit, they removed the implants!" he says to himself.  Dropping the device.  He jumps out in front of the house.  He wears the smae dark uniform as Random and he carries an AK-47 assault rifle, an MP5 submachinegun in a specialized holster on his back, and a handgun on his belt.  The assult rifle is glowing a bright green.  "Alright, people," he shouts, "this mission's gone from Capture to DoA!  Take 'em down fast!" He quickly aims the rifle up at Tyroc and fires.  The bullets glow with the same green energy as the gun.  Tyroc turns to see the bullets coming a bit too late. One of them rips through the outside of his left arm, casuing it to bleed and leaving a burning sensation.Strafe hits with an 18 vs Def 16.  Tyroc attempts to deflect and gets a 17.  HP used to reroll, but Random (or one of them, anyway) uses his Counter Luck ability to spend a Villain Point to counter the Hero Point.  Tyroc gets a 17 for his Damage save vs DC 19 (lowered for FF), and he takes a Lethal hit.Strafe is as recognizable as the members of AF, so to those that see him, it should become obvious that the merc group Evolution is involved, and that the sand creature is the woman known as Sandstone.Miguel, seeing the sand, moves back towards the vehicles until he can  see Aaron and tries to mimic his power.  The truck obscures his view of the boy too much, however, and he's unable to establish a connection.Miguel: Even with Cheetah's speed, there was nowhere you could move and still not give Aaron at least half cover.  Attack 11 vs Def 19, fails.The stream of sand stretches high in the air, landing on the roof of the house, the rest of it following along.  It streams across the roof before coalescing into the form of a tall woman, though she still looks like she's made of sand.  "Right on, boss!" she says.  "No holding back, my kinda job!""We're on him, Eagle," Jersey Devil says back.  "He's a big guy, Neutron, attack pattern delta should do the trick." he says to his teammate, flying straight for Minotaur.Suddenly, two people that look exactly like Random appear beside the tree near the house.  One says, "The element kid, he can see us, take him down."  Both of them concentrate on Aaron.  Aaron attempts to fight off the mental assaults, and while he shakes off one the other locks in.  When he does, Aarons mind begins to scramble, as images, thoughts, memories all quickly and painfully begin to flash through it.  The Random that failed his attack (the one in the back)grimaces and disappears.  The other stays and concentrates solely on Aaron.Meanwhile, a fourth Random appears in the trees out back.  He doesn't seem to notice Sam, but begins to concentrate on Kiro as he makes his charge against AF.  But Kiro's trained mind slips free of the attack.  The attacker frowns as he also disappears. Complex guy, no?  Anyway, First Random's attack misses (9 vs 13), but the other hits (22 vs 13).  Damage (Will) save 16 vs DC 20, Aaron takes one Stun hit.  Random's attack uses Mental Assault; the damage continues each round as long as he concentrates.The Random attacking Kiro and misses, (14 vs 18).  Question marks signify last known position of invisible guys.Elementor is up</blockquote>
