"I might be able to shape the stuff into a better design if you like."

"Yeah, I'm solid. That damn lightning gun took a pile out of me," Tyrone says, looking in the cell. "I don't know if the guy in there was that ghost thing Kiro disintegrated, but if he was, well... he's toast. What's this Granite guy look like?"

He nods and says, "Ghost thing? Disintigrated?" He looks down at the board, hits a couple buttons on it and says, "No, no, Harold Wilson III, Granite. He's strong and can cover himself in stone." He looks down at the lock on the cell. "Hmmm, looks like it was burned, acid or something, did you see who did this?" He looks back at Tyroc, "Ghost, you said something about a ghost? Can you be more specific?"

Miguel shrugs,"they can get him out with a hammer and a chisel, what do you think Eagle?"

"I think Neutron is right," Screaming Eagle responds with a stern look. "But, if you won't do it, I'll help Barrett do it."

"I might be able to shape the stuff into a better design if you like."

"Thanks, Aaron, but it's not the design. They'll need to relocate him to a new cell, most likely, and that means getting him out of the concrete," she says to the boy.

"The door was locked when we got here. Then, captain lightning bolt decides he wants to leave, then he turns and shoots me,"Tyrone says, pointing to Rogers. "Then when I come to, there is some shadowy dude floating in mid-air that I can see through, groaning about never going back. No, wait, he said, 'Noooo! Set me freeeee!'" Tyrone says, changing his voice to do a bad mockery of the ghost. "It was like some bad Scooby Doo film. No wait... they're all bad. So I snag this thing with my powers and Kiro goes Samauri Jack on his ass and poof, disintegrated. I didn't see this granite dude, but I think I'd rather have face him than get blasted with those damn lightning generators you use."

"I think Neutron is right," Screaming Eagle responds with a stern look. "But, if you won't do it, I'll help Barrett do it."

Miguel rolls his eyes as he starts to walk towards the wall. "Man, make a joke and everyone turns into your madre. Lord forbid the man who wanted to pummel us into the ground be uncomfortable for an hour or two."

Miguel will make a hole in the wall walk in and wait for the security personal, once they are there, he will undue what he did to Nash. Mumbling about how no one can take a joke any more.

The man listens intently, pushing his small wire-rim glasses up his nose twice during Tyrone's story, trying to make sense of it. "I see, I see," he says, though you're quite certain he's somewhat confused by the explanation. "So, this shadowy...dude?" he asks, looking back down at his board and pressing more buttons, "Tall, thin, dark? Hmmm, I believe that may have been...yes...Alvin Vernard. Wraith." He looks to Kiro. "You...killed him?"

Kiro's eyes widen at the allegation. "Well, no, I mean, that wasn't my intention. As Tyrone stated, I simply attacked him with the light katana that I can generate. When it hit him, he vanished."

"Mmm-hmmm," the doctor says, nodding his head as he writes something on the board.

"Doc, the three out here have symptoms of a knockout drug of some sort. Inhaled, likely," the man looking over said guards says, poking his head in the room.

"We found 'em like that," the guard that was with you answers.

"Mmm-hmmm," the doctor replies once more, as he continues to write. "Well," he says, looking up from the board, "your assistance in this matter is appreciated. Our staff can deal with the rest," He looks at the guard that brought you here. "If you'll escort these gentlemen from the premises," he says, pushing his glasses up once more and looking back down at his board before finishing speaking. He then turns to look once more at the lock.

"Alright, guys, let's go," the guard tells you.

Miguel rolls his eyes as he starts to walk towards the wall. "Man, make a joke and everyone turns into your madre. Lord forbid the man who wanted to pummel us into the ground be uncomfortable for an hour or two."

Miguel will make a hole in the wall walk in and wait for the security personal, once they are there, he will undue what he did to Nash. Mumbling about how no one can take a joke any more.

Watching Miguel roll his eyes and stalk to the wall, Jersey Devil and Neutron look at each other and do their best to stiffle laughs.

"Is something funny?" Screaming Eagle asks?

"No, nothing, Eagle," Neutron says with a smile. "But, these guys aren't AF, you don't have to be so hardass with them."

"Are you saying I'm a hardass with you?"

"Umm," Neutron pauses, realizing the corner he's painted himself into. "No, I mean, yes, I mean, no...have I told you what a wonderful leader and beautiful person you are, Jen?"

Eagle just rolls her eyes and sighs.

The guards eventually come to Nash's cell. He was beginning to awaken just as they applied a sedative to him, knocking him back unconscious. Miguel removes the concrete and chains, and the guards pick him up and put him onto a stretcher, wheeling him out of the room.

"Alright, guys, let's go," the guard tells you.

"Don't have to ask me twice. Doctor Frankenstein there is creepin' me out. And I hear we're having roast beef for supper," Tyrone says, putting on his sunglasses and doing up his leather trenchcoat to complete his ultra-cool look... and cover up the burn holes in his shirt.

"I need a soda or something," he grumbles, walking along behind the guard. "I feel like my blood sugar is like a pound short of where it should be. And how come I'm the one who got shot? I mean, I don't disintegrate people, or glow or wield cool light swords. How about next time, you get shot, and I handle the distegrating, mkay? Karma better make sure I get some serious play soon, or imma hunt him down and kick him in the jimmies."

"And I need burn ointment. This is really starting to sting. Better be a team of bikini clad chicks applying it too," he continues as his fatigue induced bitchiness continues.

"No, nothing, Eagle," Neutron says with a smile. "But, these guys aren't AF, you don't have to be so hardass with them."

"Are you saying I'm a hardass with you?"

At this point the three members of Americian Freedom here a faint "Yes" coming from inside the building, surprisingly it sounds remarkably alot like Neutron.

The guards eventually come to Nash's cell. He was beginning to awaken just as they applied a sedative to him, knocking him back unconscious. Miguel removes the concrete and chains, and the guards pick him up and put him onto a stretcher, wheeling him out of the room.

Once Nash is taken away Miguel will exit the building and seal up the hole turn around and he will look around "What?" He says in his own voice?

Sarah and Jaya soon emerge from the prison. Spoting the group, they make their way over. Jaya, looking a bit flustered, sees Aaron and walks up to him. "How things go out here? You okay, Aaron?"

Tyrone and Kiro follow only moments later. Tyrone looks rather grumpy, as he mumbles some unheard complaint. Kiro only nods, deciding it not to be wise to respond.

"We stopped a ghost, or rather, a wraith, from escaping. We were unable to contain the prisoner we were sent to stop however, a man named Granite," Kiro reports as they approach the group.

"A wraith? Wraith? You stopped Wraith from escaping?" Jersey Devil's eyes are wide. He seems fairly impressed. "Wow, good job,"

Even Screaming Eagle seems a somewhat taken aback by the comment. "Very well done. As far as I can tell, no prisoners escaped. Unless they did so undetected...wait, Granite is gone? Damn! It looks like EM got what she came for," she says in an irritated voice.
