Tyrone zips down the stairs, force field swirling about him. As he passes Miguel, he says, "Now'd be a great time to get to copying, if you catch my drift."

As he catches up to calvin, moving faster on foot than the others, he asks, "So, what happens if someone knocks out the generator?"

Powers: Sustain the force field and movement. Generally looking about as everyone else is, for the possible intruder.

"Power for the entire facility will be lost momentarily until the backup kicks in. But even momentary loss of power could be bad." Calvin taps his watch as they continue down the stairs. "Chip, Sector G, immediately."

OOC: Sorry, missed the edit up there. He's mimicking you, Tyrone, you resisting?

"You should see if you can scope out any intruders in the building chica."

Miguel says to Sarah as he starts to go down the stairs.
 

OOC: I most certainly do not resist him mimicing me. In fact, I thought I was the one who suggested it. I didn't catch the edit either :) I want to get used to how his powers "feel" when he uses them on me so I will know it is him and not someone else doing this to me.

"So we might get flooded with all of your prisoners shortly. A bunch of elites about to escape confinement. Anyone else have deja vu?"

Careful not to burn anyone, Aaron follows along same as before.

Powers: Maintaining Fire form with forcefield and flight. Still looking around using tracking and see invis.
 

"I'm guessing 'Chip' is your computer genius? If he can't get here, me and Aaron can probably do anything you need done with your system," Tyrone says offhandedly as he zips down the stairs.

"Sorry, it doesn't work that way, not like this anyway." Sarah follows behind the others down the stairs, moving through them to catch up to Jaya. "Feeling up for a boost, Doc? Maybe then I can get an idea of what we're walking into."

Mainting shield, and if Jaya will(and its possible), will see if I can "sense" anyone in the building that's not suppose to be there.
 

Miguel concentrates on Tyrone, aiming a hand towards him, and begins to morph into an perfect copy, though he still wears his own clothes.

"Many of the prisoners will still have to get out of confinement, though tthat may be less of a problem for some of them. Still, the backups will take before very much can happen..I hope," Calvin says, still racing down the stairs. To Tyrone he says, "Yeah, I guess you could call him that. I appreciate the offer."

Jaya glances at Sarah with a worried look on her face. "Um, we're not too sure if that's really necessary yet. Let's just wait and see, okay?"

Calvin opens a door at the bottom of that stairwell, and the lights begin fade in and out. "What the--, a brownout? Okay, that's not what I expected..." Everybody races down a hallway where Calvin opens a large red metallic door. Inside a large hum can be heard, but it seems to waver somewhat, along with the lights.

A woman with short blonde hair and dark clothing stands before the generator, wer hand outstretched towards it. Electricity arcs from the machine to her fingertips, some of it dancing up her arm before dissapearing, some of it bouncing along some sort of field that envelops her. She swings her head towards the opening door and mutters a curse as she frowns.

Inititive: Jersey Devil 24, Elementor 19, Shimmering Samurai: 15, EM 14, Screaming Eagle 13, Mimic 13, Calvin 12, Sarah 11, Tyroc 10, Jaya 9

"Alright, girl, you are way outnumbered, so let's do this the easy way, what do you say?" Jersey Devil says, jumping into the room. Getting a better look at her he says, "Aw, man, that's EM, she's friggin' Pantheon!" He changes tactics and charges her, trying to tackle her to the ground. She brings an arm up just in time to deflect the charge with a straight-arm before he can get a grasp on her.
 

"Pantheon eh? Well, that cant be good. You guys take care of her, I'll make sure no more juice gets drained."

Aaron changes to Earth form, grabs a nearby water pipe to ground himself and stands between the generators and EM effectively stopping any more electricity from being drained off.
 

As Aaron blocks EM from the generators, Kiro makes his way into the room, his form giving off more light than the fixtures above. "You are a fool to attack this facility, you won't get away with it!" He concentrates, focusing on his the ki within him, and charges forward, launching a jumping kick directly at her. The kick connects, but the field around her absorbs it completely.

"That's alright, I'm finished recharging," EM says to Arron with a smirk. "And what makes you think we're here to attack anyone? Quite the contrary," she adds looking at Kiro as he lands beside her. She begins to concentrate and suddenly a barely perceptable wave eminates out from her. You can feel it as it hits you, but only barely and it doesn't seem to hurt. As it hits the machinery and electronics in the room however, everything starts to shut down. Within seconds, the entire room is dark save for the glow of Kiro's light field. That is, until EM herself begins to glow, as her body changes to that of pure electricity. You can barely perceive a cocky smile as she looks up at one of the darkened light fixtures before her form instantly shoots up into it.

"Damn!" Calvin shouts, frustrated. He taps his watch, but just shakes his head in anger. "She killed everything electronic in here."

A short, young red-haired man quickly enters the room. "Calvin! What happened?"

"Chip, that was fast. Some electro-girl fried the generator." With that, the emergency lights flick on. "There, auxilary power is up, now let's..." before he can even finish the sentence, the lights go out once again. "Oh no, she must have got to the back-up generator. That is bad news people. We need to get topside." Looking to Chip, he adds, "I don't need to tell you we need this fixed, quick."

Chip moves up the generator. He moves to touch it, and his hand seems to meld into it. After a moment he responds, "I'll do my best. Every circuit in here is toast. Elecromagnetic pulse, I'm guessing. I'm thinking 5 minutes, maybe 10."

"Just do it!" Calvin orders and Chip nods, melding completely into the machinery. "Let's get moving," he says, heading back out the door. Screaming Eagle, Jersey Devil, Jaya follow, with Kiro lighting the way.
 

"Yo, does the prison have access to an outside power source?" Tyrone asks. "If it does, I could hack the Dallas power grid and dump power into the system in about 1 minute. With a little luck, anyway."

OOC: If the answer is "yes", he'll move at maximum speed upstairs where they indicated the computers were located and use his l33t hacking skillz.
