<Cross> ::smirks:: Password's probably Jessica... ::winces in pain
as he chuckles::
<Fade> ::appears next to Jessica, probing her mind:: {{Password...}}
<Ultron> I've... ::stops:: no...
<Ultron> ACTION> THE TERMINAL EXPLODES SENDING EVERYBODY BACK FLYING...
AND ULTRON INTO THE WIRE CAUSING HIM TO BE ELECTROCUTED BEFORE SMOKE BELLOWS
OUT OF IT'S MOUTH
<Titan> ::glares at ultron as he grows larger and tries to backhand
him the rest of the way onto the wire::
<Ultron> ACTION> THE TIMER CLICKS TO ZERO.
<Ultron> ...
<Firestorm> ::eyes widen:: Eek. ::covers her mouth with one
hand::
<Fade> Wha-- ::flops forward into a pile of rubble::
<Goblin> Woulf! ::bounces off the wall:: This... is why i quit..
<Ultron> ACTION> NOTHING HAS HAPPENED. THE COUNTDOWN WAS STOPPED.
<Cross> ::tumbles into a couch, trying to ignore the sight of his
leg bent at an unnatural angle::
<Reflection> Gah! :: Flies back ::
<Fade> ::breathes in sharply:: ...Are we..still alive?
<Cross> ::weakly:: Must be... I know you're not in my heaven...
<Reflection> Looks like Ulty's bomb was a dud
<Titan> ::surveys the damage and frowns::
<Goblin> Unfortunately... ::stands up slowly, groaning:: Okay...
someone redecorated my insides
<Hellion> ACTION> THE WHOLE PLACE IS A MESS, JESSICA IS STILL COVERED
IN RUBBLE IN A POOL OF HER OWN BLOOD
<Fade> ::slowly gets up, not hearing Cross, a gash across her forehead::
....we must get the injured to the....medlab..if it's still intact.
<Goblin> ::holds his side, looking down at Jessica:: Yo Titan...
can ya get her outta there and to the medlab?
<Reflection> Thanks, Dr. Quinn... We'd have neevr figured that out
on our own.
<Firestorm> ::takes a few breaths:: ((ack)) ::shakes her head
mutely at Goblin:: Not Titan... fade-port her there... faster...
<Titan> If it wasn't burned then all the equipment's was probably
ruined by the sprinkler system. ::takes off his helmet::
<Cross> ::groans:: Yeah... I'll just walk to the medlab on my own...
with my new joint on my left leg
<Hellion> ACTION> TITAN FINDS OUT JESSICA'S PULSE GETTING WEAKER.
<Fade> ::glares at Reflection:: Oh, you're a riot.. ::kneeling next
to Jess, grimaces at the pain in her forehead, and touches Jessica's wrist,
sending them both to the medlab::
<Firestorm> ::grimaces at Cross:: Can you walk if I help you?
((might be able to fly him...))
<Hellion> ::very weakly:: so....sor...sorry...
<Cross> Umm... ::looks at his bent into a Z shaped left leg:: I
doubt it
<Titan> ::strokes his chin::
<Hellion> I......tried... ::stops talking as her pulse flatlines::
<Goblin> ::rubs his side, then heads towards the hangar::
<Fade> ::appearing in the medlab first, carefully fades-in Jessica
onto a bed-thing::
<Reflection> :: runs to the medlab :: She's an annoying bitch..
But she can't Die..
<Firestorm> ::goes slightly pale and tries very hard to look the
other direction:: I think we're going to have to try to anyway...
Titan!
