Wingnut jumped back into the van, and slammed it into high gear, bumping a few protesters out of the way as he saddled up next to the gates of the embassy.

"All aboard for the afterparty."

Cal gave the guy he'd taken down an good kick in the chest as he shoved himself back to his feet, running for the getaway van. Still makes me feel sick to be taking orders from this guy...

Daniel was still shoving rioters back from them, but cringed when the police arrived. Let's see... I can either submit myself to the tender mercies of the authorities, or make problems for Kyra's daddy. Kyra, you'd better appreciate this... With a scowl, he held his hands up, not attacking any more provided no more rioters rushed them.

Most of the rioters were busy panicking and fleeing in all sorts of directions, and all Daniel got was a couple of elbows in the side as people ran all over the place.

Bobby was on the ground, twitching a little.

"Ugh.. my bad, my bad.." he muttered, finally staggering to his feet and shaking his head, attempting to clear the fuzz.

Once she spotted Nick and Bobby making to exit the scene, she landed near them. She was still charged up with her electrical aura, so helping Nick was not necessarily a good idea, but she did watch to make sure that they all could leave without more hassles.

Lora wasn't going to make herself look guilty, but she wasn't going to just walk away either. She made her way over to Daniel, hopping over a few KO'd protesters on the way.

"Think we are in trouble?"

Wingnut grinned as they peeled out, a cop car blazing on their trail. "Yeah, not for long, mates," he said to the police car, flooring it.

With his free hand, he tossed an envelope back to Chloe. "For you guys. I knew you wouldn't let us down," he grinned.


Inside the envelope was...a big thick wad of cash. And some white powder in baggies.

"No, but we need to get the hell out of here," Daniel said. "No way are we jumping back inside embassy grounds after mixing it up with the locals. Come on," he said, pulling her along and elbowing a few people jostling them out of their way."

"Ooh, fleeing the scene. We would be in even more trouble if we were to be caught now," she said with an honest-to-God cackle. She cried out a bit when her arm bumped into one of the members of fleeing crowd, apparently being hit in a sore spot.

"Those assholes. I bet that will leave a bruise."

___________________________________

After a significant drive where there was much plot exposition and people talking and things <_<, the three vans pulled up to a large, fancy building in the middle of Mayfair.

"Like I said, the afterparty."

"Pimples burst occasionally," Meg said, sounding bored. Honestly, she had no love for their former contact, though he wouldn't have wished him to be cut down in a storm of bullets. On the other hand, she wasn't about to cry any tears over him either. "So, when's the party starting?"

I had half-a-mind to pop him myself.

"Oh, it's not mine," Wingnut smiled. "It's the bosses."


The penthouse took up the entire top floor of this building in mayfair--a very expensive, very fancy place. There was a hot tub in the middle of it, and a great view of the entire city.

On an oddly bumpy table with a tablecloth thrown over it lay a shitload of drugs--cocaine, heroin, LSD, etcetra. Several thousand dollars of drugs just sitting there.

The girl who opened the door was wearing what might be the skimpiest dress on the known planet. The clothing, or lack there of, would distract the crew for a while before one of them, possibly her opponent, Chloe, would recognize the Olympian.

As a matter of fact, they ALL seemed to be there...Bobby's Menagrie, Nick's Talon--the whole gang, all dressed VERY skimpily, all awaiting the arrival of the team. The only one apparently missing was Rob's opponent, the Baron.

And behind the bar was Dr. Miles Cross, wearing a tuxedo.

We. Were made. Before we even got started. That was the only logical thought to Cal.
Code: Select all
Prepping emergency bodyslide functions.  Accessing targetting parameters.

Lock onto Meg's electrical signature.
Code: Select all
Acknowledged.  Unique bioorganic readings acquired: Robert Bowen.  Locked on.

Rob's probably got something on him that you can scan and lock to. That... missile-ring, maybe.
Code: Select all
Confirmed.  Telekinetic field lock attempting.  Tentative lock acquired on Nicholas Varkan.  Will attempt to resolve targetting protocols.

Keep at it. Is there anything you can use to lock onto Chloe?
Code: Select all
Data inconclusive.  Gravometric signature acquired: Kathrin Schmidt.  Locked on.

Be ready for a manual lock on Chloe, then, I'll just have to make sure I keep line-of-sight on her. Ah... question, can you get a lock on Wingnut? Slide him out to somewhere different if we have to bail? Lile... the bottom of the Mariana Trench, maybe?
Code: Select all
Analysis: bi-hemispheric locations are too remote to attempt in one jump.

Oh well, it was just a happy idea anyway. Charge for bodyslide: Trigger if commanded or if I go unconscious, or if survival likelihood of any team member drops below forty percent.
Code: Select all
Acknowledged.


Feeling a bit more secure with his preparations made, Cal smirked as he looked at the 'help'. "Well, I'm even more glad now that I made the big leagues."
