When the World Broke (Open RP)
Xey seeing a gun pointed in his direction Xey decided to pick up Lyden and take them though the roof off the building taking hold of Lyden and spreeding his wings to full width he jumped and with most of the power in his body lifted Lyden and crashed through the roof and started to fly north towards the charded woodlands hopping to be able to get away from Thuel.
((occ how much dose Lyden weigh? need to know how tired Xey is ))

((Holly [censored], i had to read through all of that, sorry guys.))
Keegan stood in the same position, but looked around to see himself in a completely different area, a warehouse of some sort. His eye's focused in on the disarmed bots and he relaxed, his arms dropping to his sides.
His ggaze trailed the floor and found Essex, well the shadow of Essex, hidden behind the man in the lab coat who had jsut tried to kill him.
"First of...", he was cut off by the cloaked figure who had obviously been the cause of his teleportation and the shield dampering his magick, which could easily be dispersed of.
After letting the man speak his piece he spoke up, "I am not an assasin either, I came here trying to figure out what the hell is going on here, my runes have, changed the old power is gone, replaced with this magick....", he stopped realizing he was rambling on about things the others probably didn't even remember.
"Point is, I am not here to hurt you Essex, that is you isn't it, wow, human form does you some good, though you could use some sun.", he spoke the words with a playful grin then turned to Acid, "Acid, you said right? You take care of them, I have a feeling that I have ALOT more of this magick then I did the True Power, so I will cover you guys, when it is over I will find you, trust me.", as he spoke he began walking to the window and his palms began to glow again, suddenly the blue aura surrounded his body and he was floating, the barrier dissapated.

((Tarnation, I can't help myself! And by the way, the detention field wore off a long time ago.))
Acid performed the equivalent of cocking an eyebrow, "Awhodawhadda?"
Holy geez, who IS this guy? I swear I've never heard anyone...well, maybe not never but still...speak in one giant sentence like that!
"Uhh," he turned back to the others, "Anybody understand what Grammar Man here just said...? Hey, wait a tick, you, get back here...!"

Thuel stood there, still for a minute, getting a dual heat lock, wouldnt take a few seconds, a few minutes atfter the weapons being fired and the grenade. He got a heat signature off of Lyden from memory, it took longer to get a match off of Xey, who was moveing and has another close to him.
He decided to forget the match on Xey, he unloaded the assualt rounds from his AR52CC, took out the sniper barel, screwed the sniper barel on, loaded the sniper rounds and took aim...
He only needed one shot to take them both down. He took a deap breath and aimed. He was to nervous to get a clear shot, his finger slipped missed them by a few inches and slammed into a tree trunk next to them. They could see the bullet breaking the sound barrier, they could feel the power behind this peice of steel flying through the air at nearly a mile a second, slamming into the tree, flying through it and hitting the next one, and the next one untill it finaly struck a rock a mile away.
"Damnit, I missed?" he said in dissapointment, he stood up and teleported out of the building, leaveing a peic of paper tacked to the door saying "Building CLOSED, Under inspection." at the bottom of the paper was the Secret Polices insigna, the same as on Thules beret.
((AHAHAHAHHAHAHA, score, I was waiting to see if you'd say something bout my run on and on and on and on, then pause, and on and on again sentence, lol))
Keegan stopped at the edge of the window, glowing eyes peered out at the battled field below, he recognized Hal's phantasm, but didn't see Hal, just the two giant monstrosities and the soldiers surround him.
His focus centered on the helicopters and with a half smark he looked a little over his shoulder. "Nevermind..."
Thehelicopters...disarmthehelicopters...disarmtheG UNSonthehelicopters.
He felt the runes around the Choppers and felt it was the same magick he was now in control of, so instead of fighting against the machine, he began to try to meld his magick and gain control of them. If able to gain control, if even for the briefest second, he would send all the helicopters attack mechanisms offline and then send them spiralign into eachother, with a few quick movements of his hand.
((I think you're confused. Weve only got 1 chopper and it's at very high altitude. Hal and Schizo are somewhere else entirely. India? No, that's where Kefetasura was...urg, I can't remember right now...
He mentioned a 'wasteland', though, so I'd imagine it'd be the north american midwest, where the supposed front is.))

((No, i thought they were in the streets, because if you look at the poster of the helo's, they registered my EMP and faltered because of it, jsut a careful observation))
((I let off an EMP, too. Hal is /rad. ))
((occ im guessing that Lyden is heavy if not i'll rewrite to fit char.))
As Xey reached the tree line he felt the displacement of air as the sniper round missed his left wing only by inches. Weaving in and out of the charred forest. After a kilometer and a half Xey dropped Lyden five feet from the ground and tumbled down his wings furling up and his muscles in his shoulders throbbing in pain from carrying Lyden and all his gear along with the worst take off he had done......that he could remember. Sitting against a burnt tree Xey looked up at Lyden and asked
"Well now, who the hell are you? Where are we and who was SHOOTING AT ME!?" With a smile Xey passed out from the immense pain in his wings and shoulder blades.

OOC: Okay, I return. First off, I posted 4 trucks and a single Helo. I believe then Khell posted with more. So there is one very high up which I posted. You guys seem to be fighting with Khells soldiers and choppers. I posted a response to the EMP since I figured a slight, absolutely meaningless amount would keep going. As in the bit of disturbance in the camera watching you.
Enjoy your helicopters.
Midas paled as Essex asked for her father. He had been fearing that terribly, because there was no way he was going to keep a child when she had a parent and was asking to leave. It was wrong and sickening, his morals were all against.
"We'll take you to your father once we're safe, if you wish." the scientist told her softly. "We just need to get away from the bad men."
At Keegan's distraction announcement, the robotist roled his eyes. Always the altruists, those heroes, always pretending they were something special because they were lucky enough to be born with powers they don't deserve. He would be happy to take on an army if the cosmos had randomly decided to throw ultimate power into his lap. Heroes were nothing more than cheaters and charlatans. Villains were worse, admittedly, but at least they usually had to work for what they were doing.
"Let the 'hero' provide cover for us, his kind aren't good for anything but dying in the first place." Midas told Acid. "But you, get up to my bunker, I can't lose what I have inside! Damned with everything else, there's something important in there, and you're going to want to see it! It's the Midas Phillis you're familiar with!"
((Aww. But the people hiding in the warehouse attic were getting all apprehensive about your soldiers from the trucks busting the door down. Open's the only one who wanted to go after the choppers so badly. ))
Phillis' last statment grabbed Acid's attention.
"It's a calculated risk." Acid told the Doctor, looking at the tiny hologram that opped from his watch, "Our pursuers aren't stupid. It looks like they've got the whole sector locked down, and I'm fairly sure they've got the means to track us even through teleport. If we hit your bunker now, it's likely it'll be discovered. You willing to that...?"

((No, you're right on Lyden's weight- Lyden himself is around 165-170, add his gear and you're over 200. Good call. ))
As it was when you were dropped, Lyden would tumble as his legs hit the ground. He rolled a bit forward, clutching to his case so that it wouldn't get knocked loose and possibly hurt either of them...

Of course, when he saw that Xey had it much worse than him, he set it down immediately. He figured that someone in that much visible pain didn't care for the formal introduction. As for the other questions, he'd answer them the best he could.
"Unit Lyden is... Unit Lyden. Current physical location is central Europe- Current political location, however, is unknown. Assailant likely affiliated with unknown military entity."
Lyden wouldn't let him pass out, either- seeing him begin to drift off he put an arm underneath Xey and stood him up.
"Advise against immediate rest- lack of activity following intense physical leads to muscle pain and soreness. Attempt to briefly walk and warm down."
Midas looked extremely conflicted. He didn't want to have to make this decision. His bunker was his only home, all of his work since his defection. He didn't like the idea of leaving his life. He knew it was weak and stupid, but he wanted things to remain how they were. He needed his comfort, it was all he had, even if it wasn't very comfortable at all.
He closed his eyes, wetting his lips, and nodded. "Yes, so long as you have somewhere else for us to go. I can grab my things quickly and my robots can carry them. It isn't much, honestly."
It was hard saying it, but he knew his bunker would likely be found without tracking a teleport. It wasn't exactly concealed ingeniously. At all. It was a hatch in a warehouse under a crate. If someone were looking for him, they would find it. Which meant they had to beat them to it. The Philosopher's Stone couldn't fall into the wrong hands!
OOC: Woah there. Who said the soldiers had stopped searching since their target seems to have vanished?
Clear!
One by one the houses where thoroughly searched and its occupants harassed. What had been a orderly arrest now became a hasty manhunt. Every unit knew that if they failed to capture the escapees, there would be hell to pay from the higher ups.
The plan was always the same. Smashing down the door, the soldiers would ransack the building room by room. Furniture was thrown over, and people were checked for I.D. Anyone who failed to materialize the proper documentation was shackled and thrown onto the street for later collection. Protesting against the violent invasion would result in violence. One foolish person had thrown a punch at the attacks. His arm broken in three places, he now laid on the street.
Tam blinked at John. Her growl deepend for a second before she pointed behind him.

"Senior Operat--" The sorcer was interupted by Thuel.
"Its Kommandant." Thuel responded, "Anywho, go on."
"Kommandant Thuel, Is there something wrong with your lenses, they looked scratched, also you missed your shot at that Avian." The sorcer asked Thuel.
"Nothing is wrong, there fine, I was just nervous." Thuel responded.
"You, nervous? Somethings wrong." The sorcer stated, while they both stood up.
"Nothing is wrong." Thuel turned around and drew his knife, a 22.12 centimenter long machete made of sharpend carbon-fiber-adamantium. He walked tossing the machete up in the air.
"If you say so, Senior Opera--" The sorcer was intereupted by Thuel swinging the machete at him. Thuels machete didnt hit the sorcerer, but came very close to near decapating the sorcerer.
"Dont, ever make that mistake again." He told the sorcerer. The whole platoon walked down the road slowly, twards the town center.
==================
Three hours later...
"Feliks, no they wernt taken in." Thuel spoke into his cell phone. "No, no I dont know when I'll be in New Mu, again." He spoke again. "How do you know my GPS system is off?" He spoke once agian. "Gotcya, Thanks for haveing the concern to place a chip in my head without my knowing to track that." He spoke with a sarcastic tone. "Goodbye Feliks." He hung up hearing the blades of a helicoptor in the background.
Thule had stood up from his seat on the stairs of the bombed out Town Center. He walked down to the Town Square where people were gatherd around a table in the center, where they were given a form to fill out. The form read...

"Alright." Acid nodded to Phillis, extending his hand, "Grab on and think about your bunker as hard as you can. And quickly."
Acid could swear he already heard a beating sound on the door, hoping it was just his imagination...

Midas did as he was told, concentrating as hard as he could on his bunker while holding the alien's hand, not feeling silly in the slightest, just desperate.
There is was. His bunker, the size of an average storage basement and in a worse state. The walls were dirty and dented, there were many small holes from armor piercing rounds that had been fired long before he had found his home. There was a bed against one of the walls with a rough wool blanket draped over the side and a folded shirt that functioned as a pillow. The mattress was pathetic, too small for the bedframe, which was practically falling apart. A workbench sat in the middle of the room. It formed a right angle, containing many drawers for parts and file. The desk was cluttered with lousy blueprints and tools, as well as half finished weapons and robotic appendages. One of the larger metal arms had fallen to the floor, scattering bolts all about. Half-finished projects were all about the room, begging to be finished by a more talented creator. Potential was everywhere, but there seemed to be no one to fill the shoes. There was also a small refridgerator, connected to a generator, and a cabinet that held the doctor's food and drink. The floor was covered in scorches and skid marks, as well as a few cracks and depressions where heavy objects, most likely disfunctional robots, had fallen.
The last object appeared with objection, as though Midas didn't wish to think of it. In the middle of the floor, closer to the workbench than the bed and near the stairs, rested the glowing red gem.
Home sweet home.

After the trio had left, he made sure to mark the teleport, so he could trace it later. He turned his focus back to the armored troops who he now heard kick in the door below.
With a simple thought he had simple faded away to appear in the middle of the room of a group of soldiers,"Hello boys.." he said anyone in the street or buildings near would see alarge blue flash of light and suddenly the windows shatter, bodies would fly through doors, walls, windows, etc.
Essex remained clinging to Midas throughout the whole ordeal, her face buried in his labcoat.
Nevertheless, her eyes scanned the small bunker curiously. Her current life had never been outside the lab...
...but no matter how curious she was, she didn't trust anyone but the man who had protected her thus far. Essex's arms still encircled Midas' leg as she clung to him...

Aw hell, he's one of THOSE guys - can't see a good think 'till it bites him in the rear. Hm, maybe I should...on second thought, yuck!
Acid had learned a bit from Mnemonyev and Vyachslav. while coming nowhere near true telepathy just yet, he'd gotten into the fringes of it, and Phillis' mental picture appeared clear as crystal.
With a flash of light and the sound of air suddenly collapsing into the resulting vacuum, Midas, Essex, John, Tam, Acid, and even the three downed bots vanished, reappearing in the Doctor's bunker.
"Make it fast." Acid nodded to Phillis, hearing rummaging above. Apparently, the soldiers were combing the entire district...

John growled right back at Tam, his eyes darkening threateningly. "Don't you EVER associate me with fire like that again, got it? As much as I don't like hitting girls, I may make a very large exception for you..." he muttered coldly, not taking his eyes away from her in a fashion that looked almost like a challenge.
((Hey, lay offa me. Maybe I'm waiting for someone besides you and the GM to post in CoT, so blah. ))
