And here we go!

"Well, then that makes it even easier yet. We start with the ones that shoot with us first, and move on to the ones that haven't gotten around to it yet."

by **Stephanie Kaltiera** » Sat Sep 17, 2011 8:32 pm

"We have any idea which of the hostiles has our headmistress?"

by **Daniel Uriel** » Sat Sep 17, 2011 8:51 pm

Daniel hesitated. "Tell the truth, I figured they told whoever was in charge of this outfit. Which... I don't think is any of us."

by **Gideon Rede** » Sat Sep 17, 2011 8:52 pm

"It certainly wasn't in any of the briefing materials," Gideon said, "We could grab a couple of soldiers and interrogate them once we escape or if you can cover me long enough I can do it now."

by **Daniel Uriel** » Sat Sep 17, 2011 8:55 pm

"Yeah... I hate saying this, but without anything in the briefing to help us, I think we should let Mr. Wizard call the next shot."

by **Stephanie Kaltiera** » Sat Sep 17, 2011 9:00 pm

"We can probably wait, rather than risk splitting up even further."

Stephanie, eyed Daniel, then Rob, "That...that's an option too."

A tank aimed it's cannon towards the hotel. Right before it could fire it exploded in a bright fireball. The armored figure who'd previously been using an anti-tank rifle had apparently jumped off the building onto the top of the tank, and was now walking out of the wreckage.

Ronnie waited with the rest, watching their backs and making sure no one barged in on them through the hole they'd made.

"... If we trusted Mr. West enough to bring him with us then I don't see any reason why we can't trust him to steer us in the right direction now." She said.

by **Bobby Bowen** » Sat Sep 17, 2011 9:39 pm

Booby was a bit surprised by the tank brigade, but quickly snapped to attention.

by **Paladin** » Sat Sep 17, 2011 9:52 pm

Paladin was apparently displaying his complete lack of loyalty to either group when he went threw a grenade at a squad of the hotel's defenders. There was a loud and rather messy explosion as Paladin charged at another tank moving quite a bit faster than any human had a right to. The tank fired and a shield of golden light intercepted it on its path and Paladin charged through the ensuing explosion his arms encased in golden light.

Rob looks thoughtful, "We need information. Either side could have the Headmistress. Or neither. We're essentially cut off from the rest of the team. We need to get out of the middle of this conflict and get our bearings."

by **Bobby Bowen** » Sat Sep 17, 2011 10:20 pm

"good. Let's run, then?"

bobby pulled back as a tank shell shot past the openingl, before looking for a good chance to jump out and make the escape.

by **Paladin** » Sat Sep 17, 2011 10:32 pm

The armored figure must be reading their minds as he tore open the tank he'd charged. He tossed a grenade into the interior of the now ruptured tank before charging at a squad of infantry.

"Move now or die," Paladin announced on the team's radio channel.

by **Daniel Uriel** » Sat Sep 17, 2011 10:34 pm

"Heh... look at that, every man for himself out there. I think I like that guy." A faint shimmer of heat formed around him. "Let's do it, then."

by **Robert West** » Sat Sep 17, 2011 10:38 pm

"Alright then, we pull a Code Python then," Rob says, "Let's go!"

by **Stephanie Kaltiera** » Sat Sep 17, 2011 10:45 pm

"Well. That clears things up a bit," she growled, clambering out the hole in the wall and starting to scurry down the side of the building

by **Daniel Uriel** » Sat Sep 17, 2011 10:52 pm

Daniel blinked. "The hell does 'Code Python' mean to X-Men? It has to be something different, because I'm pretty sure a gangbang in the girls' barracks isn't going to help us right now."

by **Bobby Bowen** » Sat Sep 17, 2011 10:54 pm

"Okay.. Everyone out! now!"

Bobby jumped, landing with a thump on the ground below.

by **Robert West** » Sat Sep 17, 2011 10:56 pm

"It means run away!" Rob says, jumping through the hole, "Move your ass, Sunshine!"

by **Gideon Rede** » Sat Sep 17, 2011 10:58 pm

Gideon exited the building doing his best not splattering onto the pavement act and then followed the others.

by **Paladin** » Sat Sep 17, 2011 11:01 pm

"The path to your right should be clear," Paladin said through their radios as he put his hand through what appeared to be a more officious looking soldier. Three other soldiers were already on the ground broken. Paladin grabbed a pistol from his holster and put bullets into the remaining members of the opposing force.

by **Daniel Uriel** » Sat Sep 17, 2011 11:04 pm

"Sure you can't share some of that fun you're having?" Daniel asked back on his as he threw a couple hotknives at the group attacking from the building as covering fire.

by **Paladin** » Sat Sep 17, 2011 11:12 pm

"For somebody who is retreating you are drawing too much attention to yourself," Paladin announced as he used the same shimmering light to shield himself from an apc's mounted machine gun. He fired his pistol at the same soldiers.

by **Stephanie Kaltiera** » Sat Sep 17, 2011 11:18 pm

"The man has a point, Uriel." she growled into her headset, sticking to the shadows as well as she could in her huge form, tailing the others and keeping an eye out for ambushers.

by **Robert West** » Sat Sep 17, 2011 11:27 pm

"The man is an asshole," Rob says, "But he's the closest thing we'll find to an ally right now. Keep moving. Only engage hostiles that are directly attacking us."

by **Bobby Bowen** » Sat Sep 17, 2011 11:28 pm

Bobby made it to the alleyway, bidding the others to follow him.

"Keep going! We're almost free!"

by **Daniel Uriel** » Sat Sep 17, 2011 11:35 pm

Daniel muttered something about not being the one to say they should retreat, but did stop attacking and started booking it through the air after the others.

by **Paladin** » Sat Sep 17, 2011 11:42 pm

"You will have plenty of opportunities to fight," Paladin said, "I will find you when this is over."

With that he advanced towards the APC he'd been shielding himself from.

by **Nick Varkan** » Sun Sep 18, 2011 11:21 am

Nick zipped into the alley after Bobby.

How the hell did he get our frequency?

by **Veronica Freud** » Sun Sep 18, 2011 10:11 pm

Had they been trying to do anything but get away Ronnie would have given these guys a real show. A screaming, stomping, tank-kicking show. But they were trying to slip away with as little detection as possible and she restrained herself. For now.

by **Nick Varkan** » Wed Sep 21, 2011 8:50 pm

"Easy girl," Nick smirked, "We'll get to break plenty of stuff later."

by **Veronica Freud** » Thu Sep 22, 2011 12:21 pm

"Is that a promise?" Ronnie asked. "Because if it is I'll hold you to it."

by **Nick Varkan** » Thu Sep 22, 2011 5:47 pm

"Of course. Breaking things is serious business."

by **Paladin** » Thu Sep 22, 2011 7:03 pm

That was about when there was a incredibly loud explosion which shook the buildings around them bits of debris falling down around them.

by **Bobby Bowen** » Thu Sep 22, 2011 8:26 pm

Bobby kept going, knowing his metal body would dent and that would be it. nyone close by would also find a brass sheet protecting their heads.

by **Stephanie Kaltiera** » Thu Sep 22, 2011 8:46 pm

The falling debris sent Steph scurrying for cover underneath one of Bobby's shields.

by **Nick Varkan** » Thu Sep 22, 2011 8:51 pm

Nick deflected as much debris as he could.

by **Paladin** » Thu Sep 22, 2011 8:54 pm

Smoke rose above the city the debris was thankfully nothing particularly large.

"Both sides have been distracted," Paladin crackled through their radios. Screaming could be heard in the background along with the muffled sound of gunfire, "I have marked the path you should take."

The team would see some of Paladin's positive propaganda posters on either side of the entryway to another alley.

by **Nick Varkan** » Thu Sep 22, 2011 9:03 pm

"I definitely can't help but like this guy," Nick smirked as they went.

by **Daniel Uriel** » Fri Sep 23, 2011 6:11 pm

"Which means it's probably a trap. So... yup, I'm in," Daniel said, glancing back, then heading into the alley.
