Issue 11 DT - Many Happy Returns

by **Samantha McManus** » Wed Jan 23, 2013 10:30 pm

Headmaster McManus was waiting alongside the landing pad after the rescue team had announced they were on their way back. She was barefoot, and wearing a long white terrycloth bathrobe, her hair wet.

Several security teams were standing by.

"I'm telling you, I'm fine!" comes the exasperated voice of the Sphinx from inside, sounding like she's at the very least rather annoyed, if not still angry.

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Jan 23, 2013 10:37 pm

Will, too, was waiting, in hospital gown, despite, well, doctory people not being happy about that.

by **Trev Anderson** » Wed Jan 23, 2013 10:38 pm

"You're n-not getting out of there until we land fully, Professor!" Trev stammered. "Just a minute longer."

One of them Sara, though technically she was just in a lab-coat and not a doctor.

Ms. McManus finally let out a breath as the landing gear of the plane touched down on the landing pad. She looked to the doors, anxiously.

by **Stephanie Kaltiera** » Wed Jan 23, 2013 10:48 pm

Steph stalked off the plane as the doors opened, dressed in a spare uniform from the jet, patting Trev's shoulder as she walked by him.

"You did fine. Relax," she said to him quietly.

by **Chloe Grant** » Wed Jan 23, 2013 10:51 pm

"Let me go." Chloe said "I told you, I feel fine. Don't want to eat anyone at all. Not that I wanted to eat anyone before."

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Jan 23, 2013 10:52 pm

"These conversations are...disturbing."

by **Kay Haddock** » Wed Jan 23, 2013 10:54 pm

"She really didn't. She protected me the entire time." Kay points out.

by **Sara Stanton** » Wed Jan 23, 2013 10:55 pm

"No kidding... That serum must have really done a number on them."

by **Samantha McManus** » Wed Jan 23, 2013 10:58 pm

"Alright," Ms. McManus said to anyone who cared to answer, "Who do we need where?"

by **Trev Anderson** » Wed Jan 23, 2013 10:58 pm

"Oh-okay. I think we can all get off the plane now. One at a time, nice and slow, careful on the ramp," Trev said, playing steward awkwardly near the exit. "Go straight to the medics, guys,"

Trev turned to Sam. "Uh...right professor? Lets get everyone checked out?"

by **Nailah Weaver** » Wed Jan 23, 2013 11:02 pm

"I told you, I'm fine." she says as the big shadow in the opening of the ramp turns into the four-legged Sphinx as she leaves the plane. "Relatively speaking..."

by **Trev Anderson** » Wed Jan 23, 2013 11:04 pm

Trev visibly shrunk as Nailah walked past him.

by **Samantha McManus** » Wed Jan 23, 2013 11:05 pm

Ms. McManus blinked at the sight, a bit surprised in spite of the reports she'd gotten.

"...love?"

by **Chloe Grant** » Wed Jan 23, 2013 11:07 pm

"Finally, we can get off of that bloody plane." Chloe said

by **Nailah Weaver** » Wed Jan 23, 2013 11:10 pm

"Aye. In the flesh and larger than life." she grins just a bit awkwardly, unable to resist the urge to spread her wings and stretch after the cramped ride in the plane.

by **Samantha McManus** » Wed Jan 23, 2013 11:11 pm

"...you could certainly say that. Are you alright? I'd heard there were... difficulties, getting you on the plane."

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Jan 23, 2013 11:11 pm

"...please tell me you and Professor Bowen have something, Sara."

by **Sara Stanton** » Wed Jan 23, 2013 11:14 pm

"We do. Of course we couldn't exactly test it, but it should work..."

by **Nailah Weaver** » Wed Jan 23, 2013 11:16 pm

"I was a little... agitated."

by **Samantha McManus** » Wed Jan 23, 2013 11:19 pm

"...imagine you would be. Did you... need anything from the medics?"

by **Nailah Weaver** » Wed Jan 23, 2013 11:22 pm

"Never been healthier. Though I'll take whatever Mrs Stanton is talking about, please."

by **Stephanie Kaltiera** » Wed Jan 23, 2013 11:27 pm

Steph stood, being examined by a few medics, and looked at Sara. "Yeah...a dose of that would be good. And a quiet room away from everyone. And get Anderson a tranquilizer before he passes out," she said with a hint of a smirk.

by **Samantha McManus** » Wed Jan 23, 2013 11:38 pm

"...certainly seems in order," she said with a slow nod.

by **Sara Stanton** » Wed Jan 23, 2013 11:44 pm

Sara nods and goes around giving everyone a short injection with a trans-dermal applicator.

"Let us know about any side-effects right away. It should be fine, but you never know."

by **Samantha McManus** » Wed Jan 23, 2013 11:45 pm

"Suppose we should... get you some downtime then, aye love?"

by **Stephanie Kaltiera** » Wed Jan 23, 2013 11:48 pm

Steph nodded in thanks for the injection and then wordlessly walked towards the dorms.

by **Nailah Weaver** » Wed Jan 23, 2013 11:49 pm

"And some clothes." she mumbles, as she walks up to Sam.

by **Samantha McManus** » Wed Jan 23, 2013 11:51 pm

"I'll... do my best," she nodded, leading Nailah away.

by **David Renko** » Wed Jan 23, 2013 11:53 pm

Renko walked down the ramp wordlessly and waved away a medic who came to check him out. He seemed set on something and walked away from the landing pad back towards the team locker rooms.

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Jan 23, 2013 11:55 pm

"Renko! Hold up," Will said, using a cane of some sort to help keep him upright. "What happened? What happened in there?"

by **Trev Anderson** » Thu Jan 24, 2013 12:05 am

Trev wandered over to Will and Renko. "It was pretty rough in there. The fog affected everyone's mental state...and well you see what Professor Weaver looked like....sorry I wasn't more help in there..."

by **David Renko** » Thu Jan 24, 2013 12:06 am

Renko stopped and turned to look at Will. Seeing Will's state he actually walked over towards the team leader to prevent Will from re-injuring himself.

"On the island Kraven had set up some kind of game preserve. Once we breached the wall we found everybody had been transformed by the gas," Renko explained, "Kraven had put explosive collars on everybody he'd captured I suppose to keep them in line. When we removed the collars the explosions attracted the others who'd been trapped by Kraven. After we either talked them down or made them submit with we loaded them onto the plane. Then we tracked down Kraven. We found his hiding place and fought him. Once we'd backed him into a corner Kraven used an unknown device on himself. There was a bright flash of light and then there was nothing left of Kraven but ash and the smell of brimstone. Not sure if he died or something else happened."

by **Will Stanton** » Thu Jan 24, 2013 12:10 am

"...Ash and brimstone? No remains, no nothing?"

by **David Renko** » Thu Jan 24, 2013 12:13 am

"Nothing," Renko said, "Some residue on the walls. I took some samples, so at the very least we can take a look at them in the lab. Not sure if we'll get anything from them or not though. He had more crates of supplies, but nothing like the device he used."

by **Rachel O'Brien** » Thu Jan 24, 2013 12:15 am

"I don't think he's dead." Rachel said, walking up.

by **Will Stanton** » Thu Jan 24, 2013 12:16 am

"You're right, Rachel -- the no remains and the ash and brimstone all seem to point to that effect.

...Kraven is not the kind of person to use explosive shock collars, either.

There's more here. We've only scratched the surface."

by **David Renko** » Thu Jan 24, 2013 12:17 am

"Probably," Renko said, "All of the crates were marked with a black sunburst, but I don't know enough to say if the symbol matches with any specific groups or anything."
