Marcus squeezed Rick's hand in returned. He wasn't happy about it but everyone else was pushing forward. He smiled. "Yeah..I'll try and do that." He left Rick and started to walk around to the others in the group. He placed a hand on each of their shoulders, engulfing them in a crackling red glow. Better to power up everyone now then have to scramble around doing it in battle.

"Probably not as hardcore as my older counterpart but I'm sure it'll do."

"Here we go. On three...




Three."

With that, Taliesin led a rush towards the hospital, followed by Will.

A nurse stood in front of Will, tilting her head.

Please do not run on the grounds, sir.

Daniel took to the air, flaming up as he followed close behind. He wasn't technically running, though.

Robin in her new (rusty) sentinel-suit on the other hand didn't bother with the nurses and stomped straight ahead, heading for the next building of the 'hospital' with the intention of tearing off the roof.

A telepathic alarm was being sent out among the nurses that would echo through the heads of everyone in the area. In response, several orderlies suddenly came bearing down on Will.

Daniel blast was interrupted by a dark figure jumping in front of it. Yorick was flying in between Daniel and Robin, black wings flapping.

"You had to go and cause trouble, didn't you?" Yorick says, throw a blast of light at Daniel.

Robin raised her arm and... nothing happened except for a few sparks that flew from the Sentinel's palm. While one of the probes landed on her she bangs the arm against a nearby tree, producing a few more sparks before trying again, aiming to blast the probe off of herself.

"Gah!" Will said, trying to take down the nurses with as little trouble as possible.

Taliesin, meanwhile, taking no such precautions, kept forward, no matter how many broken limbs happened, arms and legs billy clubs and spears, gassious form cutting through the crowd...

With a gesture of his hand, Skeiron blasted powerful winds at a few nurses and orderlies that tried to get in his way, sending them sprawling to the floor and crashing into walls. For the ones that actually got close enough to him, he simply drew out his saber and started hacking away at limbs and necks as if it was all so much undergrowth.

Felana kept her mouth shut during the walk back to the convoy, part of her relieved to be out of that hellhole and an entirely different part of her furious beyond words that all of these children had been taken from their mothers and were suffering with a deranged lunatic. The arguing only served to anger her more, and by the time everyone had resolved to attack she was blind with rage. She let out a blood-curdling howl and flew after Daniel and Will, tearing through any orderly that got in her way with ruthless efficiency, her razor sharp claws disemboweling the unfortunate creatures messily.

Melody charged with the group, blasting anything that got in her way with timebombs. She had pretty damn good aim, and even when she didn't hit head on, there was enough of a blast to still take down most things.

Probes were blasted away by Rick and Robin, but more came at Robin, attacking the joints in her armor.

One orderly thrust his arm towards Taliesin, the arm stretching grotesquely towards him as the powerful and large hand came down towards the green-haired future man. Meanwhile, Will seemed to have a clear shot into the hospitals front doors.

Yorick swerved away bright blades of light exploding from both hands that he swung towards Daniel.

Five or six nurses fell at Skeiron's feet in pieces before the limbs and pieces started moving, grasping him strongly and attempting to weigh him down.

Reaper could sense something, but it was very faint and being masked by the nurses psychic presence screaming all around her.

Between the efforts of the rest, they were starting to leave a good chunk of dismembered and burned bodies. But whether it was doing any good was questionable. As soon as one fell, it began moving again, their bodies re knitting themselves together and renewing their attack.

Talesin grew into a large arm, the better to wrestle the attacking person's arm down with.

Will, meanwhile, knowing an opportunity when he saw one, dashed for the open doors...

Vivien looked at the scene in disgust. "Attack," she commanded, and her shambling compost-things started loping across the lawn to begin tearing it up with the orderlies as she walked over to a couple currently-serene looking trees.

"Oh, you can do that, too, huh?" Daniel growled, firing off a blast of heat at Yorick. "So... tell me something, how strong are those wings?" He sent out a spark to turn Yorick into iron, ready to turn him back when the sudden added weight had him plummeting to the ground.

Huge mouths broke out from the orderlies chests, shoveling the compost monsters inside.

Yorick began plummeting to the ground, unable to pull up in time before he slammed into the grounds.

Meanwhile, Reaper began to bridge a connection to the churning alien mass of Dr. Madaraki's mind.

Feeling that she didn't care one bit as she waved her hand and turned Will into a liquid stain on the floor of the hospital's lobby.

"Zombies. She's made goddamn piece-o'-shit motherfuckin' zombies. John Russo'd be proud," he noted. Since he was made of metal, he didn't have to worry about cutting himself with his sword, so he hacked away at the arms, chucking aside any stray bits of flesh. Whatever was still holding onto him, he would blast at with a powerful wind current to try to blast the arms away.

Sheathing the blade, he resumed using his powers against the hospital's loathsome inhabitants. Focusing, he created a ring of spinning air that encircled his hand. After he extended the hand, the circle extended into a tube of cyclonic energy, the force of which he used to drive back more of the nurses and/or orderlies.

Vivien looked entirely amused. "Honestly, didn't your mothers ever tell you not to overeat?"

Within the orderlies, the masses of compost and debris began to writhe and struggle, starting to regain their forms as they started trying to punch their way out. Meanwhile, Vivien stroked a tree. "Hmmm... Elm. Quite a nice feel to you, too. Are you going to help me as well? Ah, good, I thought so." She smiled as the trees started to move, twisting into each other and creating a vaguely humanoid form that stomped forward into the fray.
