Project: Daedalus (Issue #2)

"You two," Calvin says pointing to two guards, "show these these two," he continues, pointing to Kiro and Tyrone, "to cell 056, and you two," he says pointing to two more guards, "show these ladies where cell 023 is. When you get there, allow them entry. Pantheon is behind this, they're likely trying to free their friends we have here. We need to guard these cells especially well. Understand? Let's move! Max, you're with me," he finishes, moving into the facility. Max grimly, but quickly follows behind. The guards look at those they are to escort and move into the building themselves. From the other side of the building, you think you can here a loud, banging noise...

Knowing that the others would take care of whatever was making the banging noise, Sarah follows behind the two guards that were assigned to escort them through the compound. Her borrowed weapon secure in hand she released the safety as asks, " So who's in cell 023?"


POWERS: Maintaining shields.

Sarah
As you and Jaya follow the guards through the darkened facility, you note it is not a prison in the traditional sense. Cells have solid walls, with large metal doors barring entry. One of the guards looks back at Sarah as she speaks. He frowns at the firearm she holds, but only says, "Some Pantheon chick, I think, I'm not too sure. She has a sound-proof cell, that's all I know."

After climbing a set of stairs and travelling down a hallway, the flashlight the guard carries reveals three bodies lying near a cell door. One of the gaurds swears loudly as he runs up to the bodies. "Go get backup," he tells the other, who does as he's told. "Dammit," he says, checking out the prone guards.

The number beside the door says, '023'. "There's a cell inside the room," he says. "I dunno how we're going to open the door, though. It's electronically locked."

Jaya glances wordlessly at Sarah with a puzzled look.

Tyrone, Kiro
Kiro's field lights the way as you move through the building. The guard looks back a bit shocked, but then nods a silent thanks to Tyrone. "I don't know what that is, but it doesn't sound good."

You eventually stumble upon four prison guards lying on the floor in front of a cell door, still closed. The two guards that lead you dash forward, one looking about to see what could have done this, the other checking the bodies. "Looks like they were knocked out by something," he says.

"I don't see anything..." the other announces.

"Could it have been the prisoner of this cell?" Kiro asks.

"No, this guy'd have to smash the door down to get out..."

Miguel, Aaron
Aaron thinks about who it is that might be escaping, but can't quite figure it out (Know. Trivia check 21, not good enough). Screaming Eagle and Jersey Devil fly over, hearing the commotion. Miguel uses his borrowed power to try and hold the wall together. He succeeds for a few moments, but the person on the other side is relentless. The wall finally smashes to pieces and a large, blue, glowing man stands on the other side. He looks quite surprised that someone is waiting for him ont he other side.

OOC: You guys get a surprise round (one half action).

Inititive: Screaming Eagle: 18, Mimic: 17, Elementor: 16, Jersey Devil: 15

"Oh no, it's Eric Nash..." Eagle says as the rubble from the wall cascades to the ground.

"The crazy guy that tried to blow up the Crystal River plant last year. Wonderful," Jersey Devil says, shaking his head.

Before Nash can react, Eagle lets out a peircing scream that nails him solidly, knocking him back a step.

Nash took 1 stun hit from Eagle's attack.

 

[Mimic]

"So I take it he isn't a good guy?"

Miguel asks as he shoots a kinetic blast at the stunned glowing man.

powers: Kinetic Blast, Force field, Flight, Surprise Strike
ooc: will use a hero point if the roll is 13 or under

Regardless whether the attack suceeds or not, Miguel will float back and up 30 feet.

Powers: Force Field, Flight

"Anybody want to tell me what Captain Lightbulb can do?"

 

[Calinon]

Tyrone, Kiro
Kiro's field lights the way as you move through the building. The guard looks back a bit shocked, but then nods a silent thanks to Tyrone. "I don't know what that is, but it doesn't sound good."

You eventually stumble upon four prison guards lying on the floor in front of a cell door, still closed. The two guards that lead you dash forward, one looking about to see what could have done this, the other checking the bodies. "Looks like they were knocked out by something," he says.

"I don't see anything..." the other announces.

"Could it have been the prisoner of this cell?" Kiro asks.

"No, this guy'd have to smash the door down to get out..."

Tyrone raises an eyebrow. "Who is this dude and what sort of tricks does he do?" As he asks this he looks at the lock. If it's computerized he tries to quickly figure out if he can open it if need be, or jam it.

 

[Elementor]

"So I take it he isn't a good guy?"

"Anybody want to tell me what Captain Lightbulb can do?"

"Well with the amount of beef he is hauling around I am hoping he is a pure phyisical guy."

Already in air form, Aaron dives down into the face of Nash blocking his air flow.

Powers: Air form (Incorporeal, Flight, Suffocate by touch)

Sarah
As you and Jaya follow the guards through the darkened facility, you note it is not a prison in the traditional sense. Cells have solid walls, with large metal doors barring entry.

The number beside the door says, '023'. "There's a cell inside the room," he says. "I dunno how we're going to open the door, though. It's electronically locked."

Jaya glances wordlessly at Sarah with a puzzled look.

Sarah inspects the door, making sure that it is in fact sealed. " I'm thinking that not getting it open isn't a bad thing. If we can't get in, the woman inside can't get out, right?"

She looks to Jaya. " I'm not familiar with Pantheon or their members. Any ideas who may be insdie?"



POWERS: Maintaining Shields.

 

[Agamon]

Sarah
The door is heavy and locked tight, but it's not perfectly sealed. "There's a cell, inside the room. We can usually monitor the situation inside from out here, but without power, we can't even open the door, let alone see what's happening in there..."

"My guess is that it's this Harpy girl Calvin mentioned. I don't know anything about her though, most Pantheon members aren't very high profile," Jaya responds.

Tyrone, Kiro
The lock is indeed computerized, and won't unlock without both power and the right access code.

"I heard he's Pantheon," one of the gaurds says. "Turns himself into rock, but I've never seen him like that. He's kept sedated in his cell.

"Will remain sedated without power to the facility?" Kiro asks.

The guard shrugs, "I dunno, I'm not a doctor."

The other guard says, "I'm going to get back up..." He turns on his flashlight and begins down the hallway. Before he gets very far, though, you hear him shout in surprise and cringe at something neither of you can make out from where you stand.

"Rogers!" the other guard shouts and moves down the hallway, gun at ready.

Aaron, Miguel
"How observant of you, Miguel," Jersey Devil says with a smirk. "In a nutshell, he's a living nuclear reactor, and koo-koo to boot."

"He's dangerous, Aaron, be careful," Screaming Eagle adds.

Miguel fires a wave of kinetic energy at the large, glowing man standing mere feet away from him. The blast hits him squarely, but he seasm unharmed by it.

OOC: Rolled a 7, reroll with HP, gets a 17 and hits. The attack penetrates his Protection, but he makes the damage save.

Aaron flies forward and envelops the elite, drawing the air from his lungs. He seems entirely unaffected by the attack...perhaps he doesn't need to breath.

Jersey Devil flies straight at the escaping prisoner, claws bared. He slams into him, but Nash is braced for the attack. Devil literally bounces off of Nash, landing on the floor and barely keeping his feet.

JD hits with a ramming attack. Nash makes his damage save, JD is unaffected by it.

 

[Mimic]

OOC: I rolled a 2 for you (giving you an 8), did you want to reroll? Also, you get one half action this round, you'll have to wait to move away

Yup, you missed my ooc, I figure with him flat footed, this is the best chance of taking him down.

ooc: will use a hero point if the roll is 13 or under

 

[Calinon]

Tyrone turns quickly at the sound. "Sammy-man, get us some real light there. And keep an eye out; this guy might be able to move through walls!" he says to Kiro as he moves amazingly quickly past the advancing guard towards Guard Rogers, force-field pulsing and hands giving off slight waves of kinetic energy.

Powers: Sustained force field, Readied attack.

OOC: I also assume there are battery operated emergancy lights for power outages, like any normal building, providing some minimal lighting?

 

[Deva]

The door is heavy and locked tight, but it's not perfectly sealed. "There's a cell, inside the room. We can usually monitor the situation inside from out here, but without power, we can't even open the door, let alone see what's happening in there..."

The cell inside this room is soundproof, meaning we wouldn't be able to hear anything from out here if someone else was in there with her. So In other words, we need to get inside this room if we're going to know if she's still there or not. She shakes her head, understanding the logic of that thought but liking it none the less. " We can't open that door. If we do we could inadvertently give her means of escape." She looks to the guard and the unconscious men. " Is there any other way into this room?"
