Gen Prime v Atames

(2:42:15 PM) CapsLockRAGE: A few hours ago, Cannon called everyone available to a meeting She looked more nervous then usual, she wasn't the cold cyborg she usually plays up. "Greetings" she said, as she began to address them. " There is a mission available... optional. I will not blame anyone if they want to back out, as it is a personal mission." She begins. "Some know this already. But I've been told I only have a year to live. My human parts and cyborg parts are having...compatibility issues. Essentially, I'm outgrowing my parts. This causes me both excruciating pain. As well as hindrance in my movement in the short term, i was able to counter it with drugs until now. But I'm running out of time."

Bom-Pom, with Tutor at her side, has already heard most of this and signed on. She doesn't seem overly concerned with the news either, showing her usual high levels of confidence. "I have some concerns over the details," Tutor mutters. "But we should do what we can to help."

Already aware of the situation at hand, Arac remains silent and listens

(2:46:49 PM) Swixer: *Tempo fixes Cannon with a perplexed look as he enters, hands in his pockets, as indifferent as they come.* "Huh? You're dying? That's a bummer. You'll be in my prayers. Hey, I can perform at your funeral too, if you like! I've been working on a new track that's just full of dread."

(2:49:15 PM) GeneralFreedom: "Sit down and quit being an idiot," Bom-Pom says coldly. "We're here to discuss a mission not your career."
(2:50:00 PM) Swixer: *He recoils a bit at her words.* "S-So mean!"

(2:49:51 PM) CapsLockRAGE: "I'm going to kill him." Cannon says, eyeing tempo. Before continuing. " However... I have intel that might...save my life as it were." she presses something on her wrist, the monitors around light up, and it shows a mansion on the screen. " This is the stronghold of Atames Amari. My father. He's a notorious arms dealer stationed in Iraq. This compound is were both the access codes to my software, as well as blueprints and plans to the original power armor used to create my cybernetics lies. If we can obtain these, there's a 30% chance that I can use these to essentially upgrade, and keep myself from passing away. I have a mechanic and doctor ready. I just need these details. Without them there's nothing i can do because of my internal defenses"

(2:58:28 PM) Palanius: "What kind of resistance can we expect?"
(2:58:44 PM) silverswede: "I doubt it'll be enough to stop us."

(2:59:33 PM) CapsLockRAGE: My father employs about two thousand soldiers in a private militia. All heavily armed with the latest in both body armor, and weaponry. At any given time there's about two hundred of them on the compound, The rest are usually overseeing drops. But can be recalled quickly."

(3:00:03 PM) Swixer: *He puts his hands behind his head, lazily.* "Yeah, well, we may as well go ahead and get this over with. There's no publicity in a gig like this."

(3:00:21 PM) GeneralFreedom: "It is... a rather exceptional mission for a group of teenagers," Tutor says nervously. "I wish you would reconsider and let more experienced heroes handle this, but I know Ms. Neven seems to be all for it." Bom-Pom nods firmly. "Right. This mission is to save a teammate. I don't feel right about putting it in the hands of others."

(3:00:35 PM) Swixer: "A-And we want to make sure Cannon makes it through."

(3:01:25 PM) silverswede: "Agreed."
(3:02:04 PM) CapsLockRAGE: "I don't believe that I could drum up a group of experienced heroes in such a short time anyways."

(3:02:49 PM) Swixer: *Tempo smiles, folding his arms and nodding to himself.* "Yeah. I agree. As her team-mates it's up to us to take responsibility for Cannon. That's the heroic way to do things."
(3:03:35 PM) silverswede: shoots a look sideways, but doesn't comment.

(3:03:31 PM) Palanius: "Do you have any plan in mind? You know this this organization and it's resources better then us"

(3:04:14 PM) CapsLockRAGE: "Either way, as stated, this mission is optional. It's very high risk." She folds her arms. " I know the compound and it's layout, i also know it's defenses. I'll feed them to you directly. Our biggest issue is that it's walled, and there's six miles of desert in every direction. I also...cannot come with you."

(3:05:08 PM) silverswede: "That only tells me one thing, and that's that I don't have to worry about collateral damage."
(3:05:23 PM) silverswede: "It'll be a... refreshing change of pace."
(3:05:33 PM) Swixer: "...Uh..."
(3:05:54 PM) CapsLockRAGE: "Burn it to the ground for all I care. Just get me the things I need

(3:06:39 PM) GeneralFreedom: "We have transportation and walls shouldn't be a problem," Bom shrugs dismissively. "As for collateral, the only thing you need to worry about is the people inside... Just because they're foreign doesn't mean we can just toss them around."

(3:06:09 PM) Swixer: "W-Wait, are we supposed to lead a charge on a military base?! I thought we were just gonna go talk to them?! That's crazy! That's suicidal! Just because you're dying doesn't mean we all have to as well!"
(3:06:29 PM) silverswede: "So much for heroics."
(3:06:34 PM) Palanius: "It's a risk we have to take"


(3:06:44 PM) CapsLockRAGE: "Anyways, I cannot come. My father has a remote that allows him to control my cybernetic parts. He can shut me down, or even turn me against you if I go." She looks at Tempo. "Then leave. I don't need a coward."

(3:07:23 PM) GeneralFreedom: She glances over at Tempo. "It was said at the top of the meeting that it's optional." Tutor nods. "I don't fault anyone for not wanting to do this."

(3:07:31 PM) CapsLockRAGE: "As stated, I'm not forcing anyone to come."

(3:07:39 PM) silverswede: "Well, you and me could act as distraction, Bom. We're best suited for that, after all. With the majority of their troops pulled away from the base, our two other guys should have smooth sailing -
(3:07:50 PM) silverswede: "Infiltrating the compound, right?"

(3:07:56 PM) Swixer: "I-I don't want to get shot! Look how colorful my costume is! I'm a huge neon target! Black lives matter!" *He stops panicking as Cannon drops the 'c' word on him.* "H-Hey! I ain't no coward, alright?! I just think that maybe we shouldn't just go around charging into military bases like a buncha terrorists..."

(3:08:37 PM) Palanius: "Your powers would be of great aid for this mission Tempo, you pack the biggest arsenal of the whole group" Arac says trying to appeal to the mans ego

(3:08:44 PM) GeneralFreedom: "They're technically terrorists. I think," Bom smirks. "We're doing our patriotic duty."
(3:09:49 PM) Swixer: "Oh, man...I'm gonna die on my very first mission..."

(3:09:55 PM) CapsLockRAGE: "This isn't a military base. This is the compound of an arms dealer. I've stated this. Do you not pay attention?"
(3:10:12 PM) GeneralFreedom: "Which isn't much better," Tutor points out.

(3:10:21 PM) Swixer: *The cloud over his head merely gets darker.* "That's even worse...That's much, much worse..."
(3:10:37 PM) silverswede: "Are we gonna do this, then? No use in standing around talking about it."

(3:11:18 PM) GeneralFreedom: "...I will prepare the transport," Tutor says. "Come when you're ready." The android turns to leave and Bom hops up from her seat. "No time like the present. We'll be fine, I'm sure."

(3:12:08 PM) CapsLockRAGE: "I wish you luck." She says. "I'll act as mission command from here, and do what i can to keep the automatic defenses at bay."

(3:12:33 PM) Swixer: *He drags his heels towards the transport behind the others, his entire body slumped in defeat and pessimism.* "I should've just joined that other super team..."
(3:13:09 PM) silverswede: "You're probably not gonna die. If you're bulletproof, at least."

(3:15:42 PM) CapsLockRAGE: A few hours pass as the transport drops them off a few miles from the start point, they switch to a land vehicle, and make their way to the wall at the border of the large, imposing territory. They then spend the next hour walking through desert, and avoiding roaming patrols till they find themselves looking at a very expensive looking mansion, They move behind it, where they see a garage, loaded with expensive looking sports cars as well as a few tanks and military vehicles. Cannon gives them a quick rundown of the mansion. "The ground floor will be too dangerous to infiltrate. You'll need to go in through an access point at the top floor...technically, my old bedrooms balcony. It should be unoccupied, Once there, Get ready to move down the hall to the master bedroom. I'll give you more details once you arrive there."

(3:20:41 PM) Swixer: *Tempo sweats profusely as he moves through the desert, dabbing his brow with his hat as he goes. He perks up when he sees the compound come into view.* "Wow, I chose the wrong career...the real money's in arms dealing..."

(3:21:34 PM) Palanius: "OK, how comfortable are you people in your infiltration abilities?" Arac asks with somewhat low expectations
(3:21:39 PM) silverswede: "I'm going to punch him. I'm going to punch him hard." looks to Bom-Pom with a deadpan in response to Tempo's assessment, with his usual lack of enthusiasm.
(3:21:57 PM) Swixer: "What did I say wrong that time?!"

(3:22:06 PM) GeneralFreedom: "Then we'd be kicking you in the head," Bom tells Tempo. She shakes her head and gets back to the matter at hand. "I don't sneak."
(3:22:23 PM) silverswede: "I really don't sneak."

(3:22:39 PM) silverswede: "Like, when I transform there's going to be a ruckus... maybe I should wait here?"
(3:23:13 PM) CapsLockRAGE: "Alert the guards too early, and they'll most likely put the place on lockdown, then there will be no getting in. Staying outside just increases your risk of getting caught.

(3:23:49 PM) GeneralFreedom: "Well... We definitely have the wrong team for this then. What do you suggest?"

(3:23:54 PM) silverswede: "Right. I'll follow to the best of my abilities, then. What if I started a ruckus inside?"
(3:24:02 PM) Swixer: "Well..." *He takes a seat in the sand, wringing the sweat from his hat.* "Whatever you guys decide, I'll just be here. I'm more of a doer than a thinker."

(3:24:41 PM) silverswede: really doesn't envy Bom-Pom's choice of apparel in this situation. Though he kinda regrets wearing black jeans to a desert... they chafe.

(3:25:10 PM) CapsLockRAGE: "Arac will take point, and let you know when it's safe to move. If you have to take down a guard, take them down fast and hard, these are trained killers with military backgrounds. Do what you need to. There's a patrol coming, get to the third floor balcony quickly."

(3:26:05 PM) Swixer: *Slipping on some Nina Simone and sliding on his headphones, Tempo lies back in the sand and lazes around. As he does so, he rapidly fades away until he turns completely invisible.*

(3:26:36 PM) GeneralFreedom: "Got it," Bom grumbles. "Let's get moving. Stick with Arac."
(3:26:37 PM) silverswede: "After you, then." Turns to who he presumes is Arac.

(3:27:01 PM) Palanius: "I could try infiltrating the building myself, once I'm inside you three heavy hitters could do what you do best and draw attention away?" Arac suggests, really not that eager to lead a group of not so subtle heroes two days in a row

(3:27:37 PM) CapsLockRAGE: "I wouldn't tell you to do this if it wasn't the best route, quit questioning me and get moving."
(3:29:23 PM) silverswede: prepares to follow Arac, hoping that his acrobatic ability will be up to par with the trained infiltrator and super cheerleader.

(3:30:36 PM) Swixer: *Turned invisible by the blues music playing through his headphones, Tempo quietly hangs back as the rest of the group move. Once they're out of range, he walks behind cover and takes off his headphones, turning visible again.* "Yeah, like I'm gonna go walking into a guarded compound with those guys. I'd have better luck running in screaming..."

(3:30:59 PM) Palanius: "Fine, follow me" Arac says, moving into the compound. His ultra vision tagging guards and patrol patterns as they move, he even somehow seems able to spot cameras and optic security systems

(3:32:08 PM) GeneralFreedom: Bom might not do sneaking, but she's definitely acrobatic and agile! And observant. She easily keeps up and keeps quiet.

(3:32:14 PM) Swixer: *He takes a seat behind the rock he's using for cover and reclines a bit.* "I'll just wait it out here and swoop in after all the shooting ends."

(3:32:46 PM) Palanius: "Tyrfing, grab Tempo and make sure he keeps up" Arac says annoyed
(3:33:04 PM) silverswede: looks around, but can't seem to find the man. "I don't see him."

(3:33:34 PM) Swixer: *He speaks over the comms.* "Oh, yeah, don't worry about me. I went invisible. I'm sneaking through the other way."
(3:34:55 PM) silverswede: decided that going to find Tempo would've been too much of a hassle, and probably get him spotted, so he decides on simply following Arac.

(3:33:29 PM) CapsLockRAGE: {Once the group finally gets moving. The ones who actually did what Cannon suggested find themselves inside of a room, just as Cannon had stated, it was without anyone in it. It was also exactly what one would expect the filthy rich "daddy buys my love" girl to have, satin sheets, expensive looking jewelry, untouched for a while it looks. Expensive clothing and dresses, not what one would expect. None of which looked like it was the kinds of things cannon would be into. The group takes in the sights for a moment. "You're safe here for now. No one enters this room, as long as you don't make a lot of noise. Right now, there's no one upstairs, but that wont last long. Make your way to the master bedroom, Inside you'll see a marble bust, under it should be a key. You'll need to grab it, and make your way to the sub-levels. There will most likely be an engagement or two on the ground floor, you'll need to take them out fast and without hesitation"

(3:44:55 PM) GeneralFreedom: "...this is a pretty nice room," Bom comments. "Tempo, I know you're going to be tempted to screw up here, but for everyone involved, please refrain."
(3:45:51 PM) Swixer: *Back behind his rock, Tempo flicks through stuff on his phone. He almost drops it when Bom-Pom's voice comes through.* "Oh, y-yeah, yeah, don't worry about me. I'm moving around the compound. Totally invisible. It's pretty sweet, actually."

(3:46:10 PM) CapsLockRAGE: Meanwhile, outside, while Tempo is just hanging out, he suddenly hears the clack of a pulson rifle, complete with sound of energy charge. "We have an intruder!" Cannon did warn them that the outside was not safe to be out in. The guard doesn't hesitate to start firing.

(3:46:22 PM) silverswede: looks around the room himself, possibly even somewhat curious. "This is not what I expected..." He says, realizing that either Cannon's father doesn't know his own child, or the team don't really know Cannon. Either way, not a comforting thought, so he disregards it quickly.

(3:46:42 PM) Palanius: Activates his own cloaking device, going invisible so he can slip away undetected should the group be spotted. He guides the other two through his mechanical voice over the comms. He uses his x-ray vision to peak through the walls to spot any security guards.

(3:47:27 PM) GeneralFreedom: "Uh huh." She takes a bit more time to look over the room before heading after Arac.

(3:48:20 PM) CapsLockRAGE: {There are no security guard upstairs. Just as Cannon stated. He can see movement downstairs though, it's a safe path to the master bedroom
(3:48:38 PM) silverswede: "I heard something. Think they found this "Tempo" dude..."

(3:49:13 PM) Swixer: "AIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEE!" *Tempo leaps up as he's spotted by a guard behind his rock, leaping up and out of the way of his pulson fire.* "W-Wait! Don't shoot me! I'm just looking for directions,
(3:49:38 PM) silverswede: "Yep, they found him."

(3:49:45 PM) Swixer: I-I-I--" *As the fire continues, he flees towards the compound, tears of terror streaming from his eyes.* "WHICH WAY IS IT TO DISNEY WORLD?!?"

(3:50:19 PM) GeneralFreedom: "Of course... Arac, we're going to need to pick this up. Tyrfing, get ready to go nuts."
(3:52:25 PM) silverswede: "Right."

(3:50:31 PM) CapsLockRAGE: {The guard doesn't buy it. He starts to fire at tempo. Pathetic or not, it was the guards job to shoot on sight. Meanwhile, lockdown procedures start inside the compound. Titanium shutters start to slam down around outside of the windows. "Whats going on!?" Cannon shouts over the comms. "Why has lockdown been engaged!"

(3:51:41 PM) Palanius: "Then try to keep up" Arac begins moving faster towards his goal, remaining vigilant to any guards or security systems that might cross his path

(3:51:57 PM) Swixer: *As he flees, Tempo slaps on a rap mix using his bracer. In an instant, he goes from running for his life to breaking the sound barrier, rushing into the compound and sliding underneath the shutters

(3:52:27 PM) GeneralFreedom: "Someone screwed up. Take a guess who it was." Bom spits and picks up her pace.

(3:52:43 PM) Swixer: moments before they close. He rolls at the feet of the rest of the team in a heap, blubbering in fear.* "Crapshitcrapshitcrapshit!" *As he notices them standing there, he quickly leaps up and regains his composure.* "You'll never guess, but it looks like we've been detected!"

(3:53:50 PM) GeneralFreedom: "I'm starting to think you may have misrepresented yourself at your interview," Bom grimaces at Tempo. "We'll talk about it later. Try not to be any more of a disappointment than you already are."

(3:53:57 PM) silverswede: has his hand tightly clasped around the handle of his blade. "Say when." He looks to Bom, before sending a silent and very judging glare at Tempo.

(3:54:00 PM) CapsLockRAGE: "I knew he'd be a liability. I should have told him not to come." Cannon says through gritted teeth. "It can't be helped now, they'll be coming. Tyrfing get angry. Tempo, you stay with Tyrfing and assist, if they see you, they wont be looking for Bom-pom and Arac. Bom, Arac, your mission stands, get the key, head to the sub-levels.

(3:55:03 PM) Swixer: *He instantly deflates at the criticism.* "C-Come on, it's not entirely my fault..."
(3:55:30 PM) CapsLockRAGE: "It's ENTIRELY your fault. You broke off from the team, and got caught. Now get ready to fight."

(3:55:34 PM) GeneralFreedom: She glares at Tempo and gestures for him and Tyrfing to move. "You heard Cannon, get to it."
(3:55:47 PM) Palanius: Would ignore any guard he comes across and just slip by them in a graceful manner. It's better for now they don't know he's there as he won't be able to pull as much weight in an open fight

(3:55:51 PM) silverswede: draws the blade, and in a torrent of flames he transforms into the berserker! Before a single word has been muttered, Tyrfing has flung himself at the pursuing soldiers with a sinister laughter. "AHAHAH! YES! Finally some action, bring it on, dogfood!" He shouts heartily, laughter bellowing as he swings the wooden blade into the midst of the soldiers.

(3:56:56 PM) Swixer: *Tempo straightens up and nods at Bom-Pom, turning towards Tyrfing as they prepare to fight.* "Okay, this time I'll make up for what I did be--" *He freezes as Tyrfing lunges at the oncoming soldiers, his burst of courage faltering* "Th-this guy is terrifying! I'm suppose to work with him...?"
(3:57:36 PM) CapsLockRAGE: "NOW."

(3:58:52 PM) Swixer: "NYAAAAH!" *He quickly slaps on the first track on his playlist: a screamo track. His scream of fear quickly transforms into a powerful sonic scream to knock the soldiers aside.*

(3:58:39 PM) CapsLockRAGE: Tyrfing leaps into the group, there's at least 10 soldiers, heavily armed with powerful blasters, the shots even hurt him a little! Continuous fire might even be able to down him, he still manages to catch the first set of guards by surprise while Tempo is still slack jawed, when he finally DOES do something, the sonic scream takes down another few soldiers, but more are coming, and they're adapting tactics to counter the powers. Including bringing out bigger guns. Bom and Arac manage to get to the master bedroom, hearing all the commotion just outside, The room is just as fancy as the last one, but more in line with a mans tastes, Fine liquors and big game taxidermy mounts the walls, as well as expensive looking rifles. In the corner is the bust that Cannon spoke of.

(4:02:34 PM) GeneralFreedom: Bom takes up position at the door in case they have guests and gestures for Arac to get the key!

(4:03:00 PM) silverswede: "Grr, bringing guns to a sword fight... fight toe-to-toe you cowards!" He roars, swinging his blade at an inhuman speed before him, parrying some of the energy blasts. Each time he's struck, the runic scarring on his body seems to flare up, increasing his ferocity and tenacity even more. Grabbing the nearest piece of furniture, he hauls it at the incoming soldiers before charging straight ahead slashing recklessly all across his recent vicinity, and whoever happens to be close by.

(4:03:12 PM) Palanius: Uses his high-tech eyes to scan the entire room floor to roof for any alarm trigger or booby(hehe)traps
(4:04:57 PM) Swixer: *Falling back, Tempo unleashes another few sonic screams at the soldiers until his song stops and he's forced to switch out. This time he goes for dubstep. As the base drops, his hands light up and begin firing energy blasts at oncoming soldiers.* "H-Hey, they're not so scary in person. Especially when I can blast 'em without getting close!"

(4:04:30 PM) CapsLockRAGE: "Alright, once you get the key, you'll need to go to the downstairs elevator, The upstairs one wont take you to the sub-levels. You'll need that key to access them. The Elevator is guarded, so when the door opens, expect small resistance. Try not to alert anyone by taking down the guards. I'll be working to counter the automated defenses. Tyrfing suddenly takes a blast of concussive energy to the chest, hard, It explodes and sends him flying back into the wall, which has absolutely no give, probably reinforced, he bounces off of it. That hurt. As Tempo switches from his sonic scream to some light show act, a flashbang rolls at him, giving him only a split second before it goes off.

(4:07:57 PM) GeneralFreedom: "Hopefully there's so much noise that going unnoticed won't be a problem," Bom grunts and gets a move on, purple pink sparks dancing around her hands. She's getting antsy now that the fighting has started.

(4:08:51 PM) Palanius: After making sure the room is clear Arac fetches the keys and follows the instructions. As they go down the elevator he uses his x-ray vision to put a mental mark on the guards standing on the other side. He pulls two silenced pistols and readies himself to take the shot as soon as the doors would open. He points out the direction of some of the guards to Bom-Pom so she know where to blast

(4:09:12 PM) silverswede: "GRAAAH!" He shouts, flung back and staggered for a moment, before turning to look back at whoever had the bloody audacity to incite his anger like that.

(4:10:50 PM) Swixer: *The flashbang hits Tempo dead on, temporarily blinding and disorienting him. HE wildly fires his energy blasts around as he staggers back in surprise and fear.* "Agh! C-Can't see!"

(4:13:02 PM) CapsLockRAGE: As Tyrfing gets up to his feet, he's greeted by a large suit of steely grey power armor, It's got a huge cannon, and is probably what hit him, It slowly raises it's hand up, and motions with his hand in a "come on" fashion. "Come get it boy." Tempo's flailing manages to drop a couple guards, but now they've busted out shields, and are starting to advance on him, firing rapid pulse weapons in his direction. Bom Pom and Arac manage to get down the elevator, where they're met with the two guards. They had been waiting for the door to open, and started firing into the elevator almost right away.

(4:17:02 PM) GeneralFreedom: Bom moves in as soon as the firing starts, her barrier taking the lucky shot that manages to clip her before she lands a quick straight punch into one of the shooters' gut. It's charged with just enough energy to send him flying.

(4:17:18 PM) Swixer: *As the blinded Tempo tries to regain his bearing, his wrist-mounted music player is struck by pulson fire. With the machinery damaged, it begins to erratically play music from across its playlist.

(4:17:26 PM) Palanius: He already had his target locked and ready to bring down even before the doors would open, he presses himself to the wall of the elevator no to get shot and guns down his target

(4:17:47 PM) silverswede: steps up to the challenge with unprecedented eagerness, sporting a wicked and bloodthirsty grin. With his sword leveled in his hand, he rushes the power armor head on, faster then before as his blade seeks joints in the legs, after a quick feint from an overhead strike. The strike is deceptively fast, and carries more power than before. Tyrfing's blade seem to slowly be catching ablaze, cracks of golden fire appearing alongside the wooden casing along the blade.

(4:18:26 PM) Swixer: With his powers similarly spiraling out of control, Tempo tanks several pulson blasts as his skin turns to metal. He then involuntarily fires bone spikes out of his back at the soldiers before sending a concussive explosion from his body and, finally, turning intangible and sinking through the floor with a panicked yelp.*

(4:24:39 PM) CapsLockRAGE: Bom and Arac manage to take down the guards quick, they didn't know what to expect. "You'll have about 30 minutes before the next check in, Make your way down the hall, past and into the special armory, once you get there, Use the key, you'll be prompted for a password. The Password is Megan." Tyrfing is surprised, not only does he miss, but this power armor seems able to keep up with him, blow for blow. It's not as physically strong, but whoever is piloting it, seems to have a firmer grasp on combat, and is using tactical, quick strikes, The two exchange blows, not really damaging one another, but definitely causing pain. Tempo's wild blasts and explosions and armor cause a bit of chaos among the ranks. The shields, however, are holding to attacks. Another three grenades are rolled out, these ones release a gas into the room, some kind of knockout gas.

(4:30:26 PM) Swixer: *Having sunk through the floor, Tempo avoids the gas attack and lands on the next level down. As he regains his senses, he quickly notices the damage to his music player.* "Damn it! This is -so- not the time..." *He begins fiddling with it hurriedly, attempting to get it working again.*

(4:30:59 PM) GeneralFreedom: "Got it," Bom says and casually leans against the elevator wall. "...he uses your name for the password, huh?"
(4:31:15 PM) Palanius: "Disable the elevator, that should buy us some more time" Arac suggests to Bom-Pom as he heads for te armory, keeping an robotic eye out for security measures

(4:32:07 PM) silverswede: grows increasingly frustrated and enraged by the weaving of the armored foe. The gas, though surrounding him, seems to not affect him at all. In fact, heat waves now surround the berserker, who raises his blade yet again and lunges at his enemies. "You want a taste of this? THEN COME GET SOME!" He roars, his blade sparking into a fiery strike at the armored foe.

(4:32:34 PM) CapsLockRAGE: "..Yes." she says, as they exchange words, and Megan starts to disable security, Tempo suddenly lands in front of the other two, having had to travel through fifteen feet of bedrock to get to the floor below the one he was on

(4:33:12 PM) GeneralFreedom: "We might need it to get back up," Bom says and turns back. "Unless we have an alternate exit? Which would be helpful." She gives Tempo a disappointed look. "Weren't you supposed to be helping Tyrfing ?"
(4:33:46 PM) CapsLockRAGE: "We don't, this place was built to only have the one entrance. It's not made to be accessible."

(4:34:02 PM) Swixer: "Cut me some slack!" *He holds up his busted bracer.* "I was doing it until someone shot me in my damn music player! Uh..." *He looks around in confusion.* "Where are we?"

(4:35:11 PM) Palanius: Does some thinking and then takes the two bodies and places them so that they block the elevator door from closing "There, now they can't call it from above"

(4:35:17 PM) CapsLockRAGE: Tyrfing lunges, getting strong, more powerful, but now that Tempo wasn't around, he was getting overwhelmed, Whoever was piloting this armor was a firm fighter and tactician. More large cannons go off electrical tasers, tear gas, sleep gas, you name it, all focused on the berserker. The Power armor guy spoke with a gruff, sandpaper like voice. "Need to learn some tactics son."

(4:37:57 PM) GeneralFreedom: "Just fix it and get back up there," Bom sighs and continues through to the armory.

(4:39:14 PM) Swixer: *He stands up.* "Oh, yeah, I'm gonna fix a hole in the damn thing! Give me a break!" *He follows them through to the armory.* "Besides, that dude seemed like he could handle himself. He was cutting through those guys like crazy..."

(4:40:37 PM) silverswede: Jump-cut to Tyrfing getting mauled by ten soldiers and a power armor. "GRAAAAH!" he screams as tasers break into him... but it doesn't stop him, but does get his attention. It drifts away from the armor and onto the soldiers. He grabs the taser threads... "How's -this- for tactics, shitstains!?" He shouts, pulling at them to use whoever was unfortunate enough to hold on as a flail.

(4:40:06 PM) GeneralFreedom: "...so you're dead weight then?" Bom frowns. "If anything dangerous happens, just stay behind him."
(4:41:10 PM) Swixer: *He folds his arms behind his head, indignantly.* "Shit, what's your problem? I took out a few of those soldiers back there, y'know... Besides, I'd feel better with the human bomb backing me up over the guy with the guns. No offense."

(4:42:48 PM) Palanius: "Bom-Pom, you're much more fit then me to aid Tyrfing in the battle. Leave the data extraction to me"

(4:43:12 PM) CapsLockRAGE: "DO NOT break off."
(4:43:31 PM) CapsLockRAGE: "The mission stands. I don't know whats waiting for you inside the armory."

(4:44:23 PM) GeneralFreedom: "My problem is that you're not taking this seriously and you're screwing up a mission. One where not only is Cannon's life at stake, but you've put everyone else in danger." Becky hisses and turns to glare daggers at Tempo. "That's my problem."

(4:45:05 PM) CapsLockRAGE: {Meanwhile, Tyrfing is not doing well, the wires he pull snapped the cartridges off the tasers, and did much little else. Meanwhile, with his attention elsewhere the power armored man goes for Tyrfing's arm, in an attempt to disarm him from his weapon. More tasers get fired. More energy cannons start firing into him.

(4:45:41 PM) Swixer: *He seems taken aback by her words for a moment, but eventually snaps back a response.* "Hey, this shit doesn't come easy to me, alright?! You think I don't know that I'm a coward?!" *He looks down shamefully.* "I just...I get in situations like this and I think I'm gonna do the right thing and be brave, but every time I just..."

(4:46:48 PM) GeneralFreedom: "You didn't have to come," Bom mutters, turning her gaze and crossing her arms. "Are we almost there?"
(4:47:09 PM) CapsLockRAGE: "As soon as you open the door, yes."
(4:47:16 PM) Swixer: "...Yeah, but I wanted to. I wanted to help, y'know? Try to pull my own weight, I guess... Feh. Whatever. Let's just get this over with..."

(4:47:58 PM) Palanius: "Take this coward with you, I'm not leaving Tyrfing to die" Arac says and grapple hooks his way up the elevator shaft. He runs to nearest window to provide Tyrfing with covering fire, pulling his AR rifle with underslung grenade launcher and fires of a EMP grenade at one of the energy cannons shooting at Tyrfing

(4:48:01 PM) silverswede: the suppression fire keeps him pinned as the power armor moves onto him. His sword-arm is grabbed, and the assault continues until he seemingly hangs limp in the armor's grasp but the moment lives only a short while, as Tyrfing chuckles weakly. "Heh... heh, finally caught up to you." He grins, moving his off-hand to grab at the power armor's arm, fingers easily digging into the steel unless it's neutronium or something extremely heavy-duty, before he proceeds to attempt and rip it straight off the armor, kicking his leg up against the armor as leverage.

(4:49:47 PM) CapsLockRAGE: "No, if Tempo wont rejoin, Bom Pom should- Damnit, he's already run off."

(4:49:53 PM) GeneralFreedom: Bom sighs and punches in the password once they reach the armory. "Well. Just... stay back for now? With your powers out I don't want you getting hurt, alright? Don't worry about me, Cannon. I should be fine. Especially if we come up against energy weapons."

(4:50:35 PM) Swixer: *He rubs the back of his head, awkwardly.* "Yeah, okay..."
(4:50:37 PM) CapsLockRAGE: "Then open the door and proceed."

(4:52:35 PM) GeneralFreedom: With the the password presumably accepted, she does just that. She still seems confident, but at the same time wary. Cannon did say that she didn't know what they'd encounter.

(4:53:14 PM) Swixer: *Tempo follows closely behind Bom-Pom still hopelessly fiddling with his damaged bracer*

(4:53:52 PM) CapsLockRAGE: Tyrfing grabs hold of the power armor, He can't seem to rip the arm off in time, before the guy counter grapples around his neck with his other arm, in an attempt to choke him out, electricity seems to course out of the armor, probably in case it does get grabbed in melee range. Seems like it wont be that easy. Arac's assault rifle manages to take out a few soldiers, but they all seem to be at least decently armored, probably from the fact they knew they'd be going up against meta-humans, return fire gets sprays at him from almost every direction. "There's another one!" Bom pom is immediately met with a rushing shoulder tackle! It seems someone was waiting for her. The figure, clad in white and gold power armor that looks surprisingly like Cannon's robotic limbs. "Who sent you? CIA? " It says coldly, leveling a very familiar cannon into Bom Poms face.

(4:58:11 PM) Palanius: Arac switches from window to window to keep the element of surprise up, his excellent marksmanship and enhanced eyesight helping him strike his targets in the joints and weak spots of their armor. He reloads his grenade launcher with another emp grenade and fires this one at the power armor Tyrfing's wrestling with to even out the battle

(4:58:22 PM) Swixer: "B-B-Bom!" *He takes a step back as the girl tackles her.* "O-Oh man! It's like Cannon's evil twin sister!"


(4:59:24 PM) silverswede: might be a brick juggernaut, but he still needs to breath! Which he kinda can't while being choked out by a massive power armor. Without his super strength, and with his sword arm pinned, it'd seem he's got nothing to get him out of this sticky situation.

(5:00:23 PM) GeneralFreedom: Bom-Pom gasps and is sent rolling back. Her energy field flashes across her body as she smoothly slides back to her feet. "A friend of ours. You might want to get out of the way." Her fists flare with energy and she takes a menacing step forward.

(5:02:18 PM) CapsLockRAGE: "...Megan, of course. So this is what my daughter is up to, breaking into her own home to steal from me." He says, before firing a warning shot at Tempo. " Don't move." He turns his attention back to Bom. " You want it tough guy? Come and get it."

(5:03:33 PM) Swixer: "H-Hey, maybe we can talk this through...Your daughter's gonna die, dude..."

(5:04:13 PM) CapsLockRAGE: As Tyrfing almost loses consciousness, The EMP goes off, causing the Power armor to suddenly become unresponsive, the back opens up. and a woman jumps out of the back, the gas had cleared up enough that she didn't seem to need a mask. She's got short, brown hair, a scar across her forehead, and a gaze that could melt steel beams. She's not much larger then Cannon, sans robot parts. She quickly quickly grabs a pulson weapon and gets ready to fire. Tyrfing is free of the Power armors grasp.

(5:07:25 PM) GeneralFreedom: Bom smirks and clenches her fists, the energy becoming more violent. "Cannon made it pretty clear he wouldn't negotiate. Things are going to get messy Tempo. Don't get caught in the blast."

(5:08:19 PM) silverswede: is freed thanks to Arac's intervention. That pisses him off, needing help that is. Losing any track of thought, he goes into a full-scale animalistic rage as he grabs the power armor suit and hurls it straight at whichever bunch of soldiers had grouped up the closest, before rushing them blindly again. There might be foam at his mouth by now.

(5:09:08 PM) Swixer: *Tempo runs behind the nearest cover and watches the fight with fearful trepidation.*
(5:09:59 PM) Palanius: Aims for the girl emerging from the power armor, shooting at her in bursts of paralyzing ceramic bullets

(5:10:48 PM) CapsLockRAGE: "That..." Cannon says over the comms. "That's impossible, The Power armor used to build me was supposed to be the only one." Cannon lets out a deep breath. "Bom. Listen. With that power armor, my my chances of survival go up from 30% to 95%. I know you need to defend yourself, but if you can, try not to damage the armor." She goes silent for a moment, presumably lost in throught. "Tempo...see "If you can get away from the fight and get into the armory. Look for a small remote, similar to a stereo remote with white and gold trim, That's the fail-safe for the armor. If you can get that, you can shut it down." The small woman suddenly fires a grapnel gun from a wrist mounted device, quickly disapearing. As Tyrfing starts thrashing about like a madman, several more soldiers rush in, the group looks like the biggest one yet.

(5:13:45 PM) Swixer: "I-Isn't that kinda risky? If he spots me, he'll blow me apart!" *Biting his lip in fear, Tempo looks between the fight and the armory repeatedly before cursing and making a mad dash for it.*

(5:15:00 PM) GeneralFreedom: "Ugh, are you joking?" Bom sighs. "Fine... I'll do my best." She moves in to engage the power armor by clapping her hands together and sending out a concussive wave!

(5:16:13 PM) silverswede: immediately spots the new group. With a primal growl, he leaps through the air and strikes down with his sword smack-dab in the middle of the reinforcements. At this rate, Tyrfing will go down quick even with his superpowers. But how well will these goons dodge Arac's precision sniping with a raging brute rampaging in their midst? let's find out who goes down first!

(5:17:55 PM) Palanius: "I'm surrounded by idiots..." Arac mutters to himself as Tyrfing throws himself at the incoming group. He reloads his launcher and fires an electric grenade at the edge of the packed group. It emmits a powerfull bolt of lightning upon impact that jumps from target to target within a 5m radius

(5:19:50 PM) CapsLockRAGE: Bom Pom's concussive blast causes the Power armor to take a few steps back and regain it's balance. In return, it points it's cannon at Bom Pom and does the same exact thing, returning the cuncussive blast right back at her. Tempo runs in, the man being distracted by Bom Pom, Inside the armory he can see several weapons, Computers, schematics, Ammo, all as illegal as illegal can be, and a lot of it probably stolen. The Man in Power armor deffinately has a lot of toys. One thing that stands out above the rest, however, Is a framed picture of a younger looking Megan, with presumably her mother looking just as happy as can be.

(5:23:46 PM) GeneralFreedom: Bom grits her teeth as the blast rattles through her, but doesn't budge her. "So, Father of the Year, do you even care that she's dying?" She puncuates the question with a charged leaping drop kick!
(5:24:34 PM) Swixer: *Tempo looks at the picture for a moment before turning his attention towards searching for the remote, turning the place upside down in his search.* "Come on, come on! Where the hell is it?!"

(5:25:17 PM) CapsLockRAGE: Tyrfing is quickly swarmed, shot at, and, although he managed to take down a few of them with his swing, As Arac Fires his Grenade, Another shot rings out, A high caliber sniper rifle, right into the bicep of his right arm, fired by the petite brunette from earlier in a vantage position. Still, the grenades managed to take a good number of people down.

(5:28:16 PM) Palanius: "Grits his teeth as he is struck. His suit absorbs some of the damage from the shot but he's definetly hurt. His suit seals the wound and medical nanites rushes to repair it. Unlucky for the sniper he's just as good of a shot with his left hand and he's quick to return fire.

(5:30:23 PM) silverswede: is hurt more, the constant barrage of attacks again starting to wear him down. However, thanks to the slight pause in abuse afforded by Arac's EMP earlier had "reset the counter", in a manner of speaking. This means his pain resistance has built up, and while he's slowly going down he can't feel it right now. Without staggering, he swings around in a brutal arc, spewing flames from his blade at nearby enemies.

(5:33:37 PM) CapsLockRAGE: "Of course I care about my daughter! Do you think I wanted this!?" He says, Ge blocks the dropkick from Bom, sliding back a little and even falling back, before quickly returning to his feet to send a huge cross to Bom Poms chin. "I didn't want her to leave, i didn't want her to run away, if she'd have stayed she'd get the treatment she needed!" He angry now, and throwing punch after punch at Bom Pom. "I love her! I want her to come back! Not her send her superpowered lackeys to take something back! I should be taking care of her! Me!" He's relentless. Tempo finally finds a box, Given it's white and gold, it probably has things he needs in it. It's briefcase shaped, with a handle, and a passcode lock on it. The numbers are just too great. They aren't going to win here, as the fight continues, they are becoming more and more overwhelmed, and wising up to the tactics being thrown at them. for every one Tyrfing takes, another two take his place. Arac, even with all his cybernetics, just can't seem to keep up the brunette sniper. Just like him, she's disappearing, re-positioning, and taking a shot, only. She seems to have the upper hand, seemingly because of familiarity with the terrain. "Give it up kids, I have you outgunned and outclassed, Lay down your weapons and I promise you live."

(5:40:37 PM) Swixer: "Passcode, passcode..." *He enters 'Megan' into the case's lock.*

(5:41:00 PM) GeneralFreedom: Bom lands from the drop kick and hand springs back from the first punch. She slips the next few punches, but takes a couple shots as the flurry continues. She's shockingly sturdy thanks to her force-field and her agility turns many of the blows into glancing ones. "She told me what you did. You used her. You made her into a weapon! A display piece for your little empire!" She springs back to touch her hands to the ground, leaving behind two small glowing marks. If the bad dad keeps advancing, he'll trigger another blast wave!

(5:42:04 PM) silverswede: is far too gone to listen to reason, so lost to rage that no words would reach him at this point. He continues to rage on, wreaking his vengeance on any soldier unfortunate to meet his blade before he'd eventually collapse from the onslaught he's subject to. Should also be mentioned that he exercises zero restraint, anyone hit probably has broken bones or worse.

(5:43:58 PM) Palanius: "Damn it all..." Arac mutters as he leaps out the window, grapple-hooking his way to the garage and enters the biggest, meanest looking tank he can find. He speed it towards Tyrfing's position, aiming the tanks gun at the snipers position and blowing it to bits

(5:46:07 PM) CapsLockRAGE: {The password clicks open. This guy probably should look at changing his passwords. Inside is a couple SD cards. Some hard prints of PA schematics, and a small remote. The Power armor man yells at Bom Pom. "I GAVE HER EVERYTHING!" He steps forward, only to be caught in the blast, it doesn't seem to harm the armor, but it definitely disoriented him

(5:49:20 PM) Swixer: *Tempo takes the remote and closes the briefcase, grabbing one more thing from the armory before he charges back out. He aims the remote towards the power armor man and presses the button.*

(5:51:02 PM) GeneralFreedom: "What did you give her? You ruined her life," Bom-Pom sneers as she stands and starts advancing on the armor, prepared to take another swing! "Did you think she'd want to stick around with someone like you?"

(5:55:44 PM) CapsLockRAGE: {The remote works! The armor suddenly shuts down. Standing erect like it's in standby. "What! You've overridden the drone controls..." he hisses from the voice box. Turns out, it was in drone mode. Who knew?  The controls seem pretty simple. Even an idiot could understand them. One button commands. It seems like it could easily go into a defensive mode and protect them on the way out. Arac throws a grenade, but has no idea if it was successful or not at this point. Tyrfing is down for the count. Several soldiers stand over him. Getting ready to take him alive.

(5:55:59 PM) Palanius: Blows up the snipers position with a grenade

(5:58:50 PM) GeneralFreedom: "...good job," Bom nods to Tempo as her energy fades. "Let's get this thing out of here. Somehow."

(6:00:00 PM) silverswede: struggled as long as his body could, going down eventually as his body gives in at last. He's unconscious, though thankfully still transformed.

(6:00:40 PM) Swixer: "Yeah, to hell with this place. When I hit it big, I'm buying a condo in Cali." *He goes back into the armory and retrieves the briefcase handing it to Bom-Pom.*

(6:01:36 PM) Palanius: "Tyrfign is down and I'm injured, there's reinforcements at the gate and a sniper lurking around. I hope you got better news on your end?" Arac says over the comms, keeping up the pressure on the - soldiers bellow with sporadic bursts of fire

(6:02:28 PM) CapsLockRAGE: "You can use the power armor to get out, Simply put it on extraction mode and set the targets."

(6:03:38 PM) Swixer: "Got it!" *He holds up the remote and presses the requisite buttons to put it in extraction mode.* "I always wanted an RC drone!"

(6:03:42 PM) GeneralFreedom: "We're done here. Get ready to get extracted, guys," Bom sighs. "Tutor, get ready to meet us and pull us out!"

(6:04:25 PM) GeneralFreedom: "Already on the way," the android calls back as he flies the transport towards the manor.
(6:04:59 PM) Palanius: "I could need some help getting Tyrfing out of the fire here"

(6:05:26 PM) silverswede: imagines this is what TFS Vegeta feels like in just about every encounter he's had.
(6:05:29 PM) Swixer: "Maybe the drone can help out with that..."

(6:06:14 PM) CapsLockRAGE: {With the targets set the PA looks around, then fires a hole through the ceiling above them, right through the bedrock, and into the room above, where Arac and Tyrfing are, there are some startled shouts as the PA begins laying down suppressing fire in the form of it's HUGE fucking cannon, Blasting right through the reinforced wall. "Extraction point created." it says in Megan's voice, probably programmed in by her father. It grabs Tyrfing and begins to walk out with him, blasting away, lethally, at everything in the room to give the others time to exit.

(6:08:32 PM) GeneralFreedom: "Alright then!" Bom-Pom pulls on Tempo's arm to get him to hurry to the elevator. "It should be with you guys right now! It just jumped through the ceiling!"
(6:09:23 PM) Swixer: "Ow! Ow! How the hell are you this strong?!" *He picks up the pace as Bom-Pom drags him towards the elevator.*
(6:09:53 PM) GeneralFreedom: Luckily the ride is pretty short. She pales a bit at the carnage, but doesn't hesitate as she runs for their brand new exit! Tutor is there in moments, pulling the transport into position for the team to board!

(6:10:22 PM) Palanius: Follows the close to the mech, gunning down any target that manages to avoid the big gun.
(6:11:39 PM) silverswede: is dragged along, his sword in an iron grip.

(6:14:55 PM) CapsLockRAGE: They quickly get into the jet, hearing some cursing from the brunette who was in charge of the troops. But it's too late, they just cannot counter the PA at this point, they weren't expecting it and were caught off guard. It's a clean getaway. The Armor boards the jet with them, quietly entering standby mode

(6:16:04 PM) GeneralFreedom: Bom takes a seat and runs her fingers through her hair, letting out a deep breath. "...that was not good."
(6:16:06 PM) silverswede: faceplants, still unconscious. Probably a good idea to sheathe the sword before he wakes up. It'd be a rude awakening otherwise.

(6:17:44 PM) Swixer: *Tempo immediately falls onto his knees as they enter the jet, overjoyed to be onboard.* "I'm alive! I'm alive! I can't believe we made it out okay! Haha! This is amazing!"
(6:18:22 PM) Palanius: Doesn't say a word, he's too tired to argue

(6:18:36 PM) GeneralFreedom: "You. You need to do some real training. Make time for it." Bom-Pom says, giving Tempo another razor sharp glare.

(6:19:00 PM) Swixer: *He begins to dance excitedly around the jet.* "Aw, yeah! Check me out, alive and kicking!" *He looks over to Bom-Pom for a moment before continuing his dance, too happy not to be dead.*

(6:19:33 PM) CapsLockRAGE: "I have training sessions lined up for everyone starting soon, Bom Pom. And...Thank you all. I know I am not the easiest to read or get along with. But this...means a great deal to me.
(6:26:22 PM) GeneralFreedom: "Good plan... We'll be back soon." She sets the picture aside and goes to check on Tyrfing now that she's had time to collect herself. "The training and the medical care." She puts his sword away too, handling it very carefully. "And...think nothing of it," Bom says and sits back in her seat to relax. "What are teammates for, after all?"

(6:27:31 PM) silverswede: transforms back into his usual self once his sword is sheathed, though the injuries not already healed remain. His healing factor has taken care of the worst, so he won't die from shock at least.
(6:20:33 PM) silverswede: says nothing too. Because unconscious and stuff.

(6:20:33 PM) Swixer: *He stops as he hears Cannon's voice over the comms, suddenly becoming serious and moving towards the briefcase.* "Man, I hope it didn't fall out..."

(6:21:05 PM) GeneralFreedom: Bom's lips draw into a thin line and she gives him a look that makes her previous expressions look positively sunny.

(6:21:13 PM) Swixer: *He opens it up with a smirk and pulls out the picture of Cannon and her mother.*
(6:21:39 PM) GeneralFreedom: The expression turns confused for a moment on seeing what he brought. "Wait. Is that..."

(6:22:06 PM) Swixer: "Hey, I know it doesn't make up for me being a coward or anything, but..." *He holds it out to Bom-Pom, turning away from her shyly as he does so.* "I figured she'd want this. You know her better than me, so maybe you should give it to her or whatever."

(6:23:23 PM) GeneralFreedom: "Yeah. I will," she laughs softly. Tutor shakes his head, no doubt wanting to fuss about everything that happened. He holds back though. For now.

(6:26:06 PM) silverswede: drools.
