"No, actually that's why we don't have access to the main grid, so hackers can't disrupt us from outside. The auxilary station is well protected, though obviously not from the means she used. This never should have happened, things are going to change. We can't worry about that right now though," Calvin says, continuing to the stairway.

"You do, of course, realize the technology exists to protect equipment from EMP bursts? Good lord man, you need to invest in a consultant! I happen to know an excellent one. Smart, witty, charming, handsome; fits in well with the minority hiring programs," Tyrone says with a grin as they reach outside. "And his mom has a date with Neutron soon!"

Good lord, I think I was safer fighting Evolution and AF at once,
he thinks to himself. Can things get worse?
 

"The question we should be asking is, is Pantheon here to spring a particular prisioner or prisoners or are they just here to spread some chaos and mayhem?"

Miguel states as he floats up the stairs as quickly as possible.

"If they are trying to free someone specific, then we should be ready for some heavy hitters, if not we might get lucky and no other Pantheon agents will be around."

The air around Miguel ripples as he activates his force field

"Unfortunately we haven't been very lucky lately."

"I really don't know what kind of safegaurds are on the equipment, but I'm certain it's quite top of the line," Calvin says to Tyrone.

"I doubt they're here to 'spread havoc'," Screaming Eagle says. "Though it's difficult to be certain. Are there any Pantheon members located here, Calvin?"

"Yeah, there are. Martins, can't remember her first name, calls herself Harpy. A tough guy, though quite intelligent, apparently, named Josef Novacek and Harold Willson III, calls himself Granite," Calvin responds. "Wish I could contact someone, I'm betting that's who their going for..." He continues to race up the stairs.

"Ho boy," Tyrone mutters as he launches himself up off the floor and up the stairwell in a much more direct route. Reaching the top he bursts outside, touching down by Neutron and Max, looking towards the containment facility.

"Yo, Pantheon is here," he says to the two and any guards present. "Some chick just fried the generator and back-up. You might wanna wake the big guy there Max; I have a feelin' we're gonna need him." Tyrone looks a bit nervous as he moves towards the containment facility.

Powers: Sustained forcefield, movement
 

Miguel follows Tyrone up the stairs and outside, but instead of landing he shoots up about 70 feet in the air and spins around in a circle to see if anything is out of place.

Tagging along with Miguel, Aaron changes to air form and flys up to help scan the area with see invis.
 

"I'm sorry, Tyrone, I don't wake him, it's not in my control," Max replies.

"We need a plan. Tyrone, Sarah, Kiro, Calvin, Max, Jaya, go and assist the staff inside the building. The rest of us will surround it and stop any that try to escape," Screaming Eagle shouts.

Other than staff hustling about the grounds hurriedly, there doesn't appear to be anything out of the ordinary to Aaron and Miguel.

Inside the prison
"Get to your posts! Don't hesitate, take down anyone that tries to escape!" The guards inside the building wear large backpacks that hum with energy, with large guns attached. The man barking the orders is tall and wide, and very muscular, and doesn't have a weapon of his own. "Alright, let's move!"

Amidst the rush and chaos, no one notices one guard that looks about trying to get his bearings. As all the guards leave, they split of in different directions in the facility. This guard pauses a moment before heading down a corridor, up a flight of stairs and down another corridor. He moves past a few doors with guards standing out front, slowing only to glance at the numbers on the door. He finally comes to a door with three guards waiting in front.

Noting the number, he says, "So, she try to escape yet?"

One of the gaurds repsonds, "Nah, this will be any easy detail, she ain't getting out by herself."

The new gaurd nods, and suddenly his arms stretch out and enwrap the heads of two of the gaurds. He slams them together, knocking them both out. "Yeah, I know."

The third guard raises his weapon and is about to shout for help, but the disguised elite is faster, whipping his arm out around the other's head, covering his mouth. He grabs the weapon away with his other arm. The gaurd struggles, his screams muffled, but eventually stops and hangs limp. The elite drops him and looks back before melting down into a puddle and slowly slithering through the tiny crack in the door frame.

In another section of the prison
Three gaurds stand alert at a door. One snifs the air and says, "What the hell is that smell?"

"What smell? Hey don't look at...wait, yeah, I smell it too. Geez, he have to...." Suddenly, all three begin to hack and cough, gasping for air. In moments they're all lying unconscious on the floor.

Miguel lowers himself down so he doesn't have to shout.

"No inmates streaming out the doors as of yet Eagle and not to question your leadership skills or anything but Max," he says to Screaming Eagle putting his index fingers up against his head imitating horns, "really doesn't work well in inclosed spaces."

Tyrone arches an eyebrow. "Sooo. You want us to just... walk into a prison containment facility. Should I remember with fondness my last visit to IHOP as my last non-prison issue meal?"
