<JessicaStark> JESS SEEMINGLY BETRAYED A-NEXT TO ULTRON AS SOME NANO-VIRUS WAS PUT THROUGH THEIR SYSTEM AND LEFT THEM UNDER CONTROL OF ULTRON AND JESS.
<JessicaStark> IT WASN'T UNTIL JESS BETRAYED ULTRON AND THE REST OF THE TEAM FINALLY GOT CONTROL DID THEY FINALLY GET A SHOT AT ULTRON ONLY MOST OF HYDRO-BASE WAS DESTROYED, THE BLACKBOLT SEEMINGLY WAS DESTROYED, CROSS BROKE HIS LEG, AND JESS IS IN A COMA NEAR DEATH.
<JessicaStark> NOW, A FEW DAYS LATER, HYDRO BASE IS BEING REBUILT WHILE JESS IS IN THE INFIRMARY STILL IN A DEEP COMA.  ULTRON'S FRIED BODY IS IN A CONTAINMENT UNIT AND THE OTHER A-NEXTERS ARE HANGING AROUND.
<JessicaStark> SCENE: AT THE HYDROBASE WHERE A FEW HELI-CARRIERS ARE DROPPING OFF SUPPLIES FOR OTHER ROBOTS TO HELP FIX THE BASE UP.  THE OTHERS ARE ALL OVER THE BASE WHILE JESS IS IN THE INFIRMARY.
<JessicaStark> SIM START
<Cross> ::walks around, glaring at the cybornetic cast:: ((Thing itches more than a regular one!))
<Titan> ::monitors the containment unit closely for any signs of life from ultron:: ((We should dismantle it and scatter the pieces throughout the furthest reaches of known space))
<JessicaStark> ACTION> A LOT OF CONSTRUCTION WORKERS ARE WALKING AROUND CARRYING HEAVY EQUIPMENT
<Miasma> ::Stands in a clam, relaxed postion before suddenly breaking out into a run towards an old dummy in the training center of the base where a few workers tinker.::
<JessicaStark> ACTION> TITAN DOESN'T FIND ANY SIGNS OF LIFE FROM ULTRON
<Goblin> ::walks down the corridor towards the lab, black cape dragging along the floor behind him::
<Fathom> ::steps back as a line of workers carry equipment past him through the hallway::
<JessicaStark> Mac> Hey, what are we supposed to do with all this scrap metal stuff?
<JessicaStark> Foreman> Just dump it in the lower levels... just wish these superfolk would quit making these messes, I mean...man...
<Fathom> ((I feel almost crowded...hmmm))
<Miasma> ::Springs on her hands on the ground and then pushes off, twisting her body so it spins as her feet crushes the dummy's chest.:
<JessicaStark> ACTION> A YOUNG WOMAN TAPS FATHOM ON THE SHOULDER
<Cross> ::heads for his room, still muttering about the cast::
<Goblin> ::steps inside the lab, having to give the door a shove to open in:: Hmm.. ::looks around the room, checking if the repairs have been made yet::
<Titan> ::turns his attention from ultron to the construction workers:: ((Who are all these people? Did they have some type of security screening before they. . .)) ::sighs::
<Fathom> ::turns around:: yes?
<JessicaStark> Woman> Excuse me... I was wondering if you were a member of A-Next?
<Fathom> I am ::looks the woman over::
<Firestorm> ::wanders around, still a bit disoriented from all the workers running around and such::
<JessicaStark> ACTION> A CRANE OF SOME KIND ACCIDENTLY DROPS MORE METAL ALMOST NEAR TITAN
<JessicaStark> man> Sorry!
<Patriot> ::walks around the base, shaking his head::
<JessicaStark> Woman> Great, I'm Sarah Belle with the Daily Bugle and I was wondering if I could have you answer some questions ::smiles::
<Cross> ::gets into his room and sits down on his black sheeted bed::
<Miasma> ::Wipes her face off and sighs, glaring at the workers and leaves to another spot.:: ((How can I train with these idiots gawking at me? It's not like the first time they've seen a woman in a body suit before...)) ::Shakes her head.::
<Titan> ::grits his teeth and growls:: ((We could've done the repairs ourselves!))
<Goblin> ::walks over to a table, his damaged glider resting on top::
<Reflection> :: walks into the infirmary :: How is she??
<Fathom> ::stares wide eyed at the woman:: ummm...I...uhhh...no comment... ::grits his teeth::
<JessicaStark> ACTION> TITAN JUST CATCHES A GLIMPSE OF A FLICKER OF RED OFF OF ULTRON
<Fathom> ::jumps into the air and flies off as fast as possible down the corridor::
<JessicaStark> Sarah> Please?  I really had a hard time sneaking in here and it would be really really really great if... ::sighs::
<JessicaStark> Sarah> Great.... there has to be someone here I can get an interview with
<Titan> ::punches a hole in the already fragile wall:: Eh? ::turns to ultron:: ((I'm just being parnoid. . .))
<Firestorm> ::taps on Cross's door:: Hey, you in there?
<Cross> ::looks around:: Ack! Somebody stole it! ::looks around for something to replace his wire hangar cast scratcher::
<Miasma> ::Walks down the hall quietly and watches Fathom run past and blinks.::
<JessicaStark> ACTION> WITHOUT NOTICING, THE SCRAP METAL NEXT TO TITAN STIRS A BIT.
<JessicaStark> Mac> ::walks up to Miasma:: Why hi there. ::grins showing off some missing teeth::
<Cross> Umm.. yeah, I'm here...
<Fathom> ::turns a corner and heads to the rec room:: ((I can handle thousands of construction workers...but not reporters...I need to find someone else on the team..))
<Cross> ::gets up and heads for his closet::
<JessicaStark> Mac> I love you with your spandex and stuff, so tell me, is that to get the bad guys thinking off or what?  ::obnoxiously laughs::
<Titan> ::turns away and looks over the rubble:: ((He did all of this and I couldn't stop him. . .))
<Miasma> It's for fighting reasons. ::Mentally sighs and crosses her arms and walks down the hall.::
<JessicaStark> ACTION> SARAH SNEAKS INTO THE TEAM QUARTERS AND WALKS INTO CROSS'S ROOM
<Goblin> ::grabs a lasertorch, cutting away the armor on his glider:: One benefit of being back here again. ::glances around:: Still just as alone though.
<JessicaStark> Mac> Fighting reasons.. HA... right, and pro wrestlers wear tights for the same reason
<Fathom> ::enters the rec room and looks around for any of his team mates::
<Cross> ::turns and jumps slightly, seeing Sarah:: Who're you?
<Firestorm> ::blinks at the strange woman walking past:: Uh..
<Titan> ::crouches down, sifting through the rubble, and sighs::
<JessicaStark> Sarah> ::jumps:: Uhh... hi, I'm from the Bugle... and I really need an interview... ::blinks:: is that blood?
<Miasma> And they're getting money, besides, you stare at them also?
<Cross> Is what blood?
<Fathom> ::scans the room  but doesn't see anyone::
<Firestorm> ::sighs and walks down the hall to her room, flopping down on her bed and yawning::
<Reflection> :: walks over :: (( I wonder how Cross is doing ))
<JessicaStark> Sarah> ::points at a bag of red liquid on top of a counter::
<JessicaStark> Mac> uh-huh...so you single babe?
<Fathom> ::turns to leave but notices a forgotten box of saltine crackers sittting on the couch:: ((hmm...))
<Goblin> ::lets the armor clatter on the ground, soon stripping his glider completely::
<JessicaStark> ACTION> TITAN'S PAGER GOES OFF DIRECTING HIM TO THE MED-ROOM.
<Reflection> :: makes her way to Cross ::
<Cross> ::shakes his head:: Imitation blood. Wear a packet under my trench coat and it'll confuse the baddies into thinking I'm more injured than I am. ((Yeah... that's it))
<Fathom> ::walks over and takes a cracker from the box biting into it:: ((not bad....))
<Miasma> Yes, you don't want to know the reason why I am. ::Gives him a deadly glare and moves swiftly down the hall.::
<JessicaStark> Sarah> Well... I could have been wrong... heh, that's very ingenius of you.
<Titan> ::comes back to reality as it were and turns his attention back to ultron:: ((I'd like to take. . .)) ::checks his pager and heads to the medroom:: ((Programming. . .))
<JessicaStark> Mac> Is that a no?
<Reflection> :: pokes her head into Cross's room :: How ya doin', Chief?
<JessicaStark> Sarah> ::turns around:: Wow, and you're Reflection... nice to meet you
<Cross> Chief? ::glances to Reflection, giving her a "run! hide!" look::
<JessicaStark> Sarah> I bought your cd
<Reflection> :: blinks at Sarah :: And you are?
<Firestorm> ::lying on her bed, makes a face and grumbles::
<JessicaStark> Sarah> Sarah Belle, I work for the Daily Bugle
<Fathom> ::eats another saltine:: ((these are quite good...))
<Miasma> ::Zips into another room and sighs in relief.:: ((Wow, I'm getting patiance. I didn't knonch his face out...))
<Reflection> :: looks at Cross ::
<JessicaStark> ACTION> TITAN ENTERS THE MED-LAB AND FINDS JESSICA WALKING AROUND IN A ROBE AND HER HEAD BANDAGED UP A BIT.
<Reflection> Uninvited guest I assume?

<Titan> You know you really shouldn't be walking around
<JessicaStark> Glitch> Glitch.. online... Ultron's backup..
<Cross> ::nods:: And she was just leaving, too... weren't you, Sarah?
<Fathom> ::sits down on the couch continuing to eat the crackers:: ((what was I doing....?))
<JessicaStark> ::looks over at Titan:: I'm all right, thanks.  I'm glad to see you again Henry ::smiles::
<JessicaStark> Lovely day isn't it?
<JessicaStark> although all this noise... ick.
<Miasma> ::Glances about the room and sits on the ground.:: I'm losing my edge, this sucks...
<Goblin> ::pulls up a bench to the table, along with a nearby toolbox, making repairs to the gliders frame:: Will need to be reenforced... ::glances around:: sure i can find something here.. ::grins mischievously::
<Cross> ::slips over and puts the blood packet back into the fridge::
<JessicaStark> ACTION> GLITCH IS GOING AROUND TITAN'S WORK PLACE LOOKING THROUGH INFORMATION.
<Titan> ::serious look:: You're avoiding the issue
<Firestorm> ::walks out of her room again, back toward Cross's, eyeing the small gathering::
<JessicaStark> ::grins:: oh Hank, live a little ::gives him a small hug:: I'm fine ok?  ::leaves the med-lab:: you should take a small vacation you know
<JessicaStark> Sarah> Well... if you don't mind...
<JessicaStark> Sarah> Mind explaining what happened with Ultron?  And is it true that Jessica Stark herself was behind it?
<Firestorm> ::puzzled look at Sarah:: Who're you again?
<Cross> ::corner of his mouth twitches:: No comment.
<JessicaStark> Sarah> Sarah Belle, the Daily Bugle reporter
<Titan> ((A vacation?!)) ::follows jes:: If you haven't noticed the base is in ruins.
<Miasma> ::Streches, sighs and walks towards the living room then hears Sarah's voice and questions.:: What the hell is she doing here!?
<Reflection> :: pull out her gun and cocks :: If you don't mind getting the hell out of here?
<Fathom> ::eyes begin to droop:: ((what are in these crackers?))
<JessicaStark> Oh this?  I can get it all fixed and better than ever in a week.
<Goblin> ::tears away damaged parts, adding to the mess already in the lab:: Ohh.. spare parts! Never good! ::laughs, echoing in the lab::
<JessicaStark> I feel so... refreshed ::smiles::
<Firestorm> ::eyes widen slightly:: ((someone's a little TENSE, maybe...)) ::nervous glance at Reflection::
<JessicaStark> Sarah> umm... listen... I..
<Reflection> :: glares at Sarah :: No You Listen..

<Miasma> ::Glares at Sarah.:: Listen to the kid and get the hell out, you have no right to be here...
<Reflection> I don't think so.. Now I'm giving you to the count of three to haul your kiester outta here... One...
<JessicaStark> ACTION> SARAH RUNS OUT OF THE ROOM SCREAMING
<Firestorm> ::dry tone:: Nice P.R. ya got going, there.
<Reflection> You come into my house uninvited and harras my friends...
<Patriot> ::after his little run, walks to his room::
<Cross> ::shakes his head, frowning and walks after Sarah:: ((Just what I need... watch, I'll probably slip on the stairs and break my other leg))

<Miasma> ::Smirks slightly.:: She's gone

<JessicaStark> ACTION> SARAH LETS LOOSE A SMALL SCREAM WHILE HER SKIN TURNS INTO A PALE BLUE.
