"Don't worry! I'm on it!"

"Don't worry! I'm on it!"

Scarlet said. Making a break downstairs to meet up with Blackout.

On the way down to stop Blackout, Scarlet would manifest his signature red-glowing fists of energy, prepared to bring the supposed beatdown to the brute.

"Time for round 2, buddy-boy!"

"If I am to die in battle, Remember me for who I was and not what I've become..."

Took kates attack as a

Took kates attack as a distraction, running in, each time her feet hit the ground her body started to glow a bit more with each step. She dropped down to slide in, attempting to grab Desiree' s leg

"have a taste of your own medicine" she tried to channel the fear she was feeling from the other woman's pheromones into her touch to cause Desiree to feel it in return.

Scarlet would get caught (if unaware or not paying attention) by an electrically charged fist, as the electrical brute bellows.

“All alone, kid? Great, I get to make this last!” He would slam his foot down, causing the entire for to arc with a debilitating charge of electricity.

Back upstairs, Kate would be surprised to find the woman moving in a blur, rolling out of the way of her strike and going for a knife slice to Blindsense’s side, as she coos to Sam.

“Honey, I can make you feel ALL sorts of things! In fact, how about I show you.” Suddenly, the room would be pumped full of pheromones emitting the feeling of not fear but panic and anxiety, as she uses her powers to also boost her speed and reaction time.

Scurrying on the ceiling like only a cat could, Nagual would drop behind the heroine, only to be surprised with a sudden kiss and a change in the pheromonic emission: adoration and love.

“What’s your name, sugar?” She grabs the hero by the cheek, as Diego murmers in a clear trance.

“D-Diego, my name is Diego.” He mutters dazed.

“I’m Desiree, Diego, but most people call me Desire. Care to show me what those claws can do to your friends?”

Nagual would nod, and looking with glared eyes in slits at Kate and the others, would take his claws along the hallway as he advances towards them with a wide slash.

Sent tumbling across the

Sent tumbling across the floor by the taser-effect-inducing punch, Scarlet would pick himself back up (albeit slowly, trying to fight off the mere twitches he would've been experiencing) and glance towards Blackout with his own raw energy-infused fists still active.

"Well someone's got to stop you and let you me tell you. I always enjoy a good challenge!"

Going into a full sprint, Scarlet would charge for Blackout doing a complete flip over his head and attempting to land a couple of punches into his spine before delivering a heavy kick to the back of his knee.

"If I am to die in battle, Remember me for who I was and not what I've become..."

"Oh crapcrapcrapcrap...why couldn't you be a good guy?! I need a dang mentor!!" She started picking up speed the more she moved starting to blur a bit with her movements the faster she got, aiming to punch "desire" in the kidney since she was immune to the empathic touch.

"Yo ninja chick, the cat a friend of yours??"

"Trouble. Let's go!" Broach

"Trouble. Let's go!" Broach stepped back through the portal, readying her bokken. For a moment, adrenaline warred with the pheromones, and the portal started contracting behind her...

“Nope sugar, a friend of yours!” She would smirk, before moving to trade blows with Sam and Kate at the same time, before moving back to let Nagual move in under her control and swipe low at their legs with his claws.

Blackout would take the hits and buckle forward, and with a yell would bellow out and expulse a electric burst, hoping his proximity would stun Scarlet again.

She took a deep breath moving

She took a deep breath moving to try and tackle Nagual, trying to firmly get her hands on him, her breathing hard as she focused the kinetic energy into her speed and pounce likely getting cut in the process

"Ow! we are your friends snap out of it!" trying to use her empathy and telepathy to snap him out of desires control...or at the very least get him under her control if she couldn't snap him out of it.

Nagual would be surprised by the direct tactic and the emotional manipulation, surprised enough to be tackled and briefly taken out of Desire’s control, blinking as he stared up to Sam.

“...Girls are fighting over me?”

"Uh what? No...uh just keep your head straight okay?" She turned bright red at his comment as she rolled off of him, doing a hand spring back to her feet, hopping from foot to foot to start rebuilding her kinetic energy pool

"I could really go for a burger right now" she was starting to look a bit fatigued

"Don't have to tell me twice.

"Don't have to tell me twice."

Hauntress follows through the portal, slipping through before it closes. She gets a small wiff of the pheromones

"Yeah, I'm staying intangible here. Anyway we can clear the air in here? Open a portal to space or at least get the air vents to pump whatever this is out of here."

Hauntress becomes intangible, her form translucent.

"I won't be much help in a straight up fight like this."

"Let the past die. Kill it if you have to."

Getting back to his feet,

Getting back to his feet, Nagual would begin to circle Desire, before realizing that if he isn’t careful, he could just as easily wind up under her control once more.

With that thought in mind, Nagual would race down the hallway towards the basement and towards Scarlet and Blackout, exclaiming into the comm.

“Scarlet, keep him busy and hang on, I’m coming! If we keep them occupied long enough someone can try and get the kid and the thug out of here!”

He would end the message just as he leaps off the stairwell and onto Blackout, bringing him down in a punishing handspring and head slam just as he was about to strike at Scarlet again.

Looking to the force fisted hero, he rushes to stand side by side as Blackout gets up, sparking with anger.

“Two on one sound good?”

"Space. Right. No, too high.

"Space. Right. No, too high." Broach concentrated, opening a portal from the ceiling above unknown woman. The other end opened twenty-five miles above the hospital - surely high enough to not be a threat to most aircraft - and air started flowing into portal from the rest of the hospital. As the breeze from the nearest vent flowed past her, Broach took several deep breaths, then moved to trigger the ER's automatic door, letting it not-quite-close on her bokken.

Scarlet would look in awe at Nagual's sudden entrance and while his face couldn't exactly be seen showing it, a smirk-ish grin stretched across Scarlet's face.

"Heh, two against one is always fun."

With this, Scarlet draw two circular objects from the sides of his waists, these were his ricochet discs and standing side-by-side with Nagual, Scarlet just looks between themselves and Blackout.

"Just for the record though, I definitely had this under control."

Sam ran over to her backpack yanking the mask out to slide it over her face quickly, activating the goggles that were built in before sprinting off down a different hall, zipping and weaving through the halls in an attempt to get back to the hall desire was in...except behind her

Sam would spring forward trying to tackle desire from behind to ride her piggy back style, she would try to get her hands on the woman's head focusing "go...to...sleep....you are very sleepy...exhausted" just praying this actually worked and wasn't going to wind up with a knife in her leg.

Kate was surprised to find

Kate was surprised to find that Desire was one of the toughest melee combatants she'd ever faced. She was quick, her attacks were precise yet brutal, and the young hero kept having to give ground. Kate was afraid she'd have to... wait a minute! Afraid?

Kate did a backflip, using her superhuman balance to vault off of the tip of her scabbard, and put some distance between her and Desire. She shook her head and realized that she was slowly succumbing to Desire's pheromones. The closer she was to the woman, the more potent they were.

As Kate wss preparing to dive back in, she suddenly had an epiphany. She sheathed her sword, then grabbed her wide silk blindfold and dragged it down so it covered her nose and mouth instead. "Let's try this again." she said.

Just before she drew her sword and dove back in, the strange girl came flying out of a side hallway to land on Desire's back like an insane cowgirl. While the woman was distracted, Kate charged forward and drove her sword and scabbard, point-first, directly at Desire's sternum.

Putting yourself in another persons shoes emotionally is something that everyone has to experience eventually. It's part of learning to be a human being. Roleplayers do it for fun.

Broach’s move to dissipate

Broach’s move to dissipate the pheromones have worked however, and they would be decidedly less afraid, and Kate’s deduction is right. Closer in proximity, the more potent her pheromones are.

The resulting cough and wrectrxh from Desire was enough to show Kate that her sternum strike had worked. Buckling forward, the woman would drop her karambit knives, her hands splashed against the tile, as they would detect a new emotion from the woman: rage.

Using a judo flip in an attempt to get Sam up and off of her with surprising strength, Desiree would then use her pheromones to give her a burst of strength to attempt to kick Sam into Kate, hoping to disable them long enough for her to move back down the hallway.

When they look up, they would see she and her knives are gone, and she is headed for the room where the speedster teen is being kept.

And one of the oxygen tanks is missing.

“Oh right yeah, your face on the floor really gave me the impression you were handling it. What smells crispy?” Nagual would quip, before his eyes go wide and he side cartwheels out of the way of a jumping smash punch from Blackout, hoping Scarlet would evade it as well.

Blackout would be attempting to punish the two teens with electrically charged strikes, as Nagual on his part weaves through and over railings and machinery like a jungle cat, rolling under and around strikes, and combining claw attacks with Scarlet’s discs when he can.

Seeing that Nagual would be the hardest to hit at least at the moment, Blackout would turn to Scarlet, ripping a piece of railing from a nearby access ramp, charging it, and hurling it like a galvanized spear at the hero.

“Hey ‘hero’, catch!”

Sam was easily tossed like a rag doll, she didn't have the energy to stay attached to the woman, practically wheezing as she tried to get to her feet "running...on empty....need to evacuate...whoever She is after...."

She looked up at the ER crash cart getting a terrible idea

Scarlet would only look at

Scarlet would only look at himself and give two quick whiffs of his arms before looking back at Nagual.

"That crispy smell would be me. Taser-Fingers here overcooked me slightly, clearly he didn't read the directions label I come with."

Continuing his quippy humor in the middle of battle, evading Blackout's electrically-powered strikes at a speed slightly matching Nagual's. Scarlet takes note of the ramp railing Blackout had fashioned into a conventional weapon and charged at him with.

"Yikes! Sorry I'm allergic to pointy objects! They ruin my complexion!"

Following this comment, Scarlet would charge toward Blackout and upon meeting him, he would grab ahold of the railing post and thrust it downward towards the floor and using it to vault himself over Blackout's head. After doing this, Scarlet would mix a bit of his parkour skill with his amateur fighting technique and use the walls in the room as 'launch-pads' to pounce from and deliver several energy-induced strikes across Blackout's person.

"But speaking of point objects, didn't your mother teach you to never play with them in the first place?"

"I mean, come on! I'm sure there are much better ways to make friends instead of having to violently mutilate their bodies!"

Blackout would respond by

Blackout would respond by hunkering down, grunting as he takes the blows, dropping his makshift spear. Taking a moment to pause and try and guess where Arthur would strike next, he moves with deceptive speed to reach out a hand to attempt to grab Scarlet in an electrically charged chokehold.

If successful in catching him, he would toss the white and red hero into a leaping Nagual from the shadows, hopefully sending them both away from him for a moment.

Regardless, Blackout would begin to chuckle, as he stands suddenly.

“That should have given her more than enough time.” With that, he slams his electrically charged hands into nearby pipes, causing them to burst and feel the room with hot gouts of steam. When the two heroes would either look up or prepare another attack, Blackout would be gone.

Upstairs, the female heroes and Sam would make it to the hospital room with the speedster teen only to find a sheet over a body, with the woman’s two karambit knives embedded in the chest like hooks, and Desire nowhere to be found.

Caught by the hand of the Frankenstein-like brute, Scarlet can't help but feel the intense current of electricity coursing through his upper-body right before he is sent hurdling in Nagaul's direction.

"Aaagghh! I-I-I-I-I h-ha-hate el-l-l-lectric-i-i-ity!"

Nagual would blink before being surprised by a red and white blur flying toward him, rushing up and jumping to catch Arthur, hurt slightly by the impact, but saving them both from a worse collision.

Grunting as he lies out on the floor of the basement, Nagual would hack out.

“Scarlet, you okay? I think we were just played.”

"Yeah I'm fine. All part of a day's work. Thanks for the save."

Scarlet would shake his head slightly before regaining his stance and offering a hand to help Nagaul up.

"But yeah...He bolted out of her way too quick. We've got to head back upstairs, if we really got played that means they got to the kids, putting us back at square one again."

Nagual would take a moment to accept Scarlet’s assist up, before moving with him upstairs to the rest of the group.

Eventually making his way to where the rest of the group is gathered, Nagual would look over the room with Broach, taking a moment to case the room.

“He could have left, but it looks more like there was a fight or struggle.” He would then move and look to the other room, with the body and knives. Looking away and saying a quick prayer in Spanish, he would look closely at the scene from the window, eyes glowing with a cat’s eye shine.

“Something’s not right...it’s a body but it looks and smells different. I don’t think it’s-.” He would make a move to step into the room, before his eyes go wide as the door is swung upon and the hissing of an oxygen tank is heard, the makeshift trap culminating with a lamp falling from a nearby cart poised by the door and setting the room alight.

“Get down!” Was all Nagual managed to get out before he shoves whoever is closest to him out of the way and hits the floor, as the room explodes.

Hauntress floats there, semi-transparent, and no real trace of emotion on her face.

"Jeez... I leave them alone for like... Half an hour and everything goes to crap. I hope they're not dead... They're pretty ok people."

Kate had been stalking back

Kate had been stalking back and forth, agitated as hell at being outmaneuvered by Desire and at the death of the teen. When the ecplosion came, she was striding towards the goon's room. Even from down the hall, she heard the lamp hit the ground, followed by Nagual's sharp intake of breath.

Kate found herself reacting before she'd even processed his scream, diving over an empty gurney and tipping it with her to shield herself. Once the heat and shockwave had passed, she popped back up, taking a moment to right the gurney. As the fire began to spread, she realized she may only have moments to get what she needed, depending on how zealous the automated fire suppression was. Kate ran the length of the hall and skidded into the thug's room.

She began sniffing and moved rapidly to his bed, soon finding a still damp spot of blood. Kate inhaled heavily, getting a good strong scent for him. Then she spun slowly, trying to determine if he'd actually been taken out of the window or if that was another ruse.

Nagual would cough as he gets up from the rush of smoke and the heat, thankfully suppressed by a automatic sprinkler system quickly enough. Shakily standing, his senses being assailed by the sirens and smoke and fire and now burnt flesh, he shares what he learned before the room blew.

“That wasn’t the kid. That was the thug, it was a trap. She killed the minion we were protecting, took the teen and left us a trap. We were played.” He slumps to the ground, wet from the sprinklers, tossing his cowl to the side and running his hands through his hair.

They failed.

Sam weakly made her way back to the hall, placing a hand on nagual's as it ran through his hair, trying to calm him "stressing...wont...solve anything...you need to keep a clear head...." She shuffled toward the crash cart, turning it right side up before starting to rummage...trying to find any intact glucose or adrenaline

"Anyone...have a working cellphone?"

Scarlet would slowly pick himself up from off the floor and try to pull himself together, his own enhanced senses only picking up the blaring sirens and noises in the room at an amplified level.

"Oh booy, well if there's one thing that's for certain...no one can say this wasn't a crazy night out on the town."

He would rub the back of his head and neck, feeling a bit lightheaded from the explosion.

Amidst the smoldering of the

Amidst the smoldering of the hallway and the sirens, Nagual manages to discern a single sound, the ring of a intact hospital telephone.

Wary but attempting to take it in stride like everything this night, Nagual takes the phone in hand but does not answer or speak, as another voice is heard on the line.

“As a Medical professional with patients waiting, I will keep this brief and direct. Assuming I am speaking to the teen vagabonds that assualted my labs and my powered associates, I offer you a simple choice.”

His voice is cold and sharp as a scalpel.

“Meet me at the warehouse on the corner of 17th and Steel in Ironport, and we can reach an agreement that guarantees the lives of your captive friends. Fail to meet within a window of two hours, and I dump them for new subjects and begin anew. I look forward to our appointment.”

Click.

Nagual would slowly place down the phone, and look back at the rest of team.

“We need to end this, tonight. No more running and chaos.”

Standing from the rubble in a slightly tattered costume, Scarlet dusts himself and puts a hand to his head trying to regain his composure and recover from the deafening pitch he was hearing in his ears.

Looking to Nagual, nodding at the statement of ending this crazy night once and for all.

"I'm game for whatever's in store to stop all this madness. Its time this 'Keeling' character, answered for his crimes and we bring these kids home."

Scarlet stretches and cracks his knuckles, ready for a fight.

Nagual looks at the state of Broach, and immediately rushed to find an intact cart of trauma and first aid supplies, handing them to Broach.

“Dr. Keeling called us out, gave us two hours to meet him at his base of operations or he’ll kill our friends he has captive and start over. Oh, and the teen we were protecting here is gone, the hospital attack was both a recovery and a distraction probably so they could fortify and prepare to move bases.”

He then stops mid guaze wrap.

“Up to speed? I’m also glad you’re wet and not dead, amiga.”

Kate sat against the wall a

Kate sat against the wall a short distance away, her sword balanced across her knees. She felt like a complete screw-up. Not only had she failed to protect the thug, whose injury was her fault, but she'd also failed to track Desire and the kid.

As she moped, she felt the vibration of the personal communicator located subdermally just in front of her right tragus. Sighing, she tapped it and subvocalized. "Yeah B?"

"Hello, my little fighter." the voice of her mom said.

"Sh... shifu?" Kate asked, her voice catching, not having expected the caller to be her.

"Not today, Katey. Brandon's been keeping an eye on you and your team. He says you guys have had a setback?" Her mom answered.

At that, Kate dropped her head and sniffed. "Yeah..."

Stephanie listened for the next several minutes as Kate laid out their string of failures up to this point. Once Kate petered out, she began talking, her voice soothing and encouraging. Kate fought the tears at first, but was crying within a minute.

"Now, get up and go do what I know you're capable of." Stephanie finished before signing off.

Kate looked up and reached under her blindfold to wipe away her tears. She nodded to herself and stood, retying her sword to her waist sash. She moved with renewed vigor and purpose as she rejoined the group. "We should head back to the Nest and plan. This won't be easy."

Nagual nods to Broach, still

Nagual nods to Broach, still making sur she at least has a first aid kit handy. Looking over BE, Scarlet and Lovetap, he takes a moment to think before speaking.

“That’s what they’re expecting us to do. Deliberate, be unsure, take our time, heck, they probably think we’ve run to the police already or our parents. Our one advantage tonight is that these guys, whoever they are, don’t seem to take us seriously.” He looks out towards the skyline, and taps his communicator, signaling everyone on the frequency to sync up.

“Let’s show them how serious we can get. We already have fought both their lieutenants, so we know what to expect, with Blackout we keep him on the defensive, and Desire we make sure she had to focus on offense. Our friends have less than two hours to live, we can’t afford to waste any more time.”

He stops as he turns to face them all.

“Are we all ready?” He looks like he’s standing straighter, and those perceptive would notice he’s holding Immanuel’s cross necklace in his hands.

Scarlet places a hand on his

Scarlet places a hand on his chin, thinking through some potential ideas.

"Well, since Hauntress has suggested the idea of scoping the place out. I say we use that to our advantage. Hauntress can scope out the meeting location and report back to us about any potential hazards and traps that are lying in wait for us, those of us who are quick and stealthy enough we could quietly take out said hazards and/or traps that actually pose any kind of threat outside of Desire and Blackout. If there are any other lackeys left, which I imagine there will be, and we still have the 'element-of-surprise' we can use Broach to port us in and get the drop on them."

Scratching his head before snapping his fingers.

"Also the kids. Our friends. I almost forgot to mention that we would also need to see where they are being held, if they are to be at the same location as us. If they are then it would important to see if its possible to get them out safely and make sure nothing was jury-rigged to happened in case Keeling anticipated for us to try and save them -before- arriving in person."

"That's my plan, unless we all decide to just walk in through the front door and keep things civil and professional."

Lastly, we need someone to run interference or run a distraction with the 3 villains while the other team helps find and free our friends. BE, Scarlet, you guys up for round 3?” He inquires.

Broach smiled, turned slightly, and waved her arms wide. An opening appeared in the air about two meters diameter, with sparks of bluish light marking the edge as molecules drifted onto it and had electrons or even atoms sheared off to one side or the other. On the far side was the entry into the Nest. "Yeap, portals. Mind the edges. Anyone else need to get resupplied?"

"Good point. Just one moment."

Scarlet ventures behind what was left of the desk counter Nagual had been perched upon and miraculously finds a pad of sticky notes and a pen. Taking a moment to think on how to word his message, Scarlet decides to scribble down: 'Bad guys blew up hospital trying to reclaim two individuals that were originally in their possession. On the move to stop them and save the day (or night). - Courtesy of your friendly resident superhero, Scarlet Striker...and friends.' Topping off his note, Scarlet signs his name with a lightning bolt-shaped 'S' and a crudely drawn picture of his mask.

After writing his little note, Scarlet pins it on the front of the partially destroyed desk.

"There we go. I'm sure the police or whoever will get that message."

Kate stepped through and immediately headed to the armory. After a moment of searching, she found a what she wanted, which was throwing daggers. Taking one out, she tested it's balance, then flipped it through the air and caught it, only to then throw it at a practice dummy. Once convinced of their effectiveness, she strapped the sheath of six daggers to her forearm.

"Communicators are over here." Kate said, having already familiarized herself with the tech lab and armory. She motioned to Hauntress's cold spot with a crooked finger, then opened the drawer where several rows of unused earbuds sat. Taking one herself, she tucked it into the ear opposite the private comm used by her and her support network.

Once ready, she stepped out into the main area and sat on one of the barstools in front of the kitchen counter.

"God this thing is going to feel so uncomfortable to wear beneath a mask like this, but I suppose I can get used to it."

After readjusting his mask once he's equipped his communicator, Scarlet returns back to his perched position back on the counter.

"I suppose we could always run through the plan one last time, make sure everyone's got their mission objective. Once that's done and we have our bearings together, we head off and do hero stuff and things."

Nagual looks to Lovetap with an expression that reads a bit of agreement but hesitance, his tone indicating as much.

“No, but I don’t feel we are entirely welcome here all the same. Not to mention he has some parental control issues that could arise with continued squatting.” He answers, before looking to Scarlet and nodding.

“Hauntress, you’ve got overwatch and controlling the battlefield, Broach and Lovetap are on rescue and recovery, and BE, Scarlet and I are on engagement and combat duty, keeping the bad guys distracted.”

He takes a moment to add, pausing. “I just realized, we kind of don’t have a leader with the bird guy gone. Are we going to...do something about that?”

Scarlet just looks around the room.

"To be honest, the thought never really crossed my mind about a team leader. Mostly because I thought this would be one of those one-time only type of deals. And because Birdbrain seemed like he was the one who was going to be running the show. But hey, we could always turn it into a game of hot potato and just pass the leadership role off to whoever during certain missions."

Scarlet pauses for a moment, giving himself a brief moment to think over an actual answer.

"Bingo. We can play process of elimination to select who would be team leader, even if its temporary."

"Probably best not to have a defacto leader and just follow whoever is taking charge or has the best idea... If there's more than one we can vote or something."

"Well then in that case I nominate myself for team leader, because...I don't know stuff and things."

Scarlet shrugs and puts his hand in the air for a brief moment.

Kate waved. "That'd be me.. Blind Edge. As for the leader situation, I'd like to suggest a team leader / rotating field leader model. The team leader will be in command overall, but when we're on missions, the field leader would take control. I'd be willing to throw my hat in the ring as one of the field leaders."

She thought for a moment and then spoke up again. "Finally, I'd like to make a nomination for team leader. This person has shown great courage as well as compassion, two qualities sought after in a good leader. Though we've had setbacks, he has remained steadfast in attempting to accomplish our goals. For the position of team leader, I'd like to nominate Nagual."

Putting yourself in another persons shoes emotionally is something that everyone has to experience eventually. It's part of learning to be a human being. Roleplayers do it for fun.

"Settle the leader thing with a fight to the death... That was a joke incase no one realised. I don't really care who becomes leader as long as they don't try to boss me around."

Hauntress shrugs

Scarlet tilts his head a bit at Hauntress.

"But isn't that one of the many things about being or better yet having a leader? The bossing of people around?"

"The point of being a leader is to guide, encourage, and take the fall for BS the team does. Not be a bossy jerk muffin. It's a difference in being a leader and being a dictator" *she emphasizes 'dic' in dictator*

Nagual would nod as Kate

Nagual would nod as Kate speaks, agreeing with the idea of the maintenance of a field leader. When he is nominated, Nagusl all but loses his balance on his perch in surprise but would right himself in mid air like a cat, landing on his hands and knees with no discomfort.

“Me? I mean I’m only trying to do what’s right but be a leader...that’s big, and long lasting. I thought that someone like Arthur would be better, or maybe Broach.” He would stop rambling, beforr asking plainly.

“Do you guys think I have what it takes?”
