Coms bot nodded quickly before stepping out of the way.
"Very well Miss Molly." It said.
Sean's Group
With the floor under XYY-004 now like quicksand he grinned and pointed next to it.
The pods area it also seem to be sinking into the floor, and a small set of lights on them appear to be blinking wildly.
"Stupid humanoid enchanced, you really want the other Humanoids here to die?" XYY-004 called out as they began to sink more.
Sean turn and vaulted for the steps calling out, "Guys remember theres hostages in those things, try not to harm 'em" Depolying his blades on the way down.
Meanwhile...
A pair of rocket powered metallic boots touch down in the lower floors of the fortress, through a hole in the hull. The mono-eyed scarred face of Joseph Infinus looks around the corridor; then shimmers out of sight as he activates his Chameleon technology ((Invisibility)).
" oh dull dull dull Sean , " and with that Rik kicked in a superspeed dash and started punching the Bot ((sands of mu and flurry )) while he bent the rules around his target ((snowstorm)) ...slower but relentlessly Mr Lumps moved and joined in the pummelling of the bot .
Sean's Group
XYY-004 realed from the blows for a moment then began it's own attacks with it's fight arm while the left blocked the incoming blows from Rik. It's grin on it's cold metal lips seem to grow more and more sinster with each blow, while it's eyes seem to be flicker faster than the normal ones as if looking at each hit then towards those attacking it.
Sudenly as Mr lumps blow came onto it's left arm it stuck out taking first the arm Mr lumps had used then slashing it's arm into the stone mans side and chest. While it's Right arm went at Rik's chest towards his heart, each finger's end seem to be as sharp as the blades Sean used.
Rik grew and threw a big smile at XYY-004 , " oh no mister tinhead , please dont hurt me , ...btw which set of rules are you playing by ..."
Rik nudged gravity to make a 90 degree X axis pivot just for the robot ((gale ..note enhanced KB)) and then once more sent a mass of clining matter at XYY-004 ((fossilize))
, all the while maintaining the temporal flux around the robot (( snow storm ..toggled so stays on ))
Red Commissar clicked a switch on the side of his AR and with a few clunks inside it, Sniper Mode was now ready for Primary Fire. He gazed down the barrel patiently, not needed a scope for his years of experince but still relying on the targetting data from Dimitri his drone, waiting for the right moment for Rik to move out the way.
"Got you..." he intoned, and pulled the trigger, yanking the bolt back to eject the spent casing as the heavy calibre sniper bullet slammed into XYY-004 ankle joint...
((Soz, couldn't post much on Thursday, and had a few too many whiskey shots on Friday.))

Molly smiled as she slid the pad on her right glove back up her arm, revealing a small metallic disc, looking not unlike a UFO in most respects. Albeit pink like her other equipment. The teen genius then unclipped the device and carefully planted it onto the keypad.
"Just give this baby chance to work its magic..." Molly uttered as what could have sounded like a dagger being unsheathed very quickly came from the device. Molly's eyes flickered all kinds of colours as the device poked and prodded every circuit, every chip, every possible connection to sources outside the panel itself with its nanomachines.

XYY-004 eyes seem to stop moving for a moment as the edges of them seem to form the look of also glasses.
"Rules? For humanoids enchaned like you there is only one." The bot said as from the impact of the rik's attack knocked it backwards, before the shell struck it's knee joint sending the bot down onto one knee.
"Resistance is.. unexpected, However this area is my infirmary and.. the expirments here are.. complete." XYY-004 said looking up at them, bracing its arms infront of it's face, it's lab coat arms seem to be stained with the red of blood.

The the small device working way, the doors lock shifted a few times before unlocking completely. Blond the door was corridor, much like the one that they had been in before coming across Coms, however this one seem to dart off to the right at the end and on the right hand wall about two foot from the corner was a control access point screen, the display blank.
Molly peeked around the doorway, sweeping her rifle over corridor ahead.
"Alright," The Pink One whispered. "Lets move, but be careful, okay?"
Molly then rushed ahead quietly, keeping her rifle raised and ready for any signs of trouble until she could reach the screen.
Sam: "My mind is a swirling miasma of scintillating thoughts and turgid ideas."
Max: "Me too."

Coms bot followed Molly down the corridor, as carefully and as quiet as it's metal feet would allow it too. Stopping just behind Molly and saying " Miss Molly it appears to be deactive, maybe a small power transfer would get it active again?"
Catz swiftly got to her feet and followed closely behind, clicking her heel against the floor for a moment, Granite blocks appearing from thin air and constructing a massive suit of armour.
Treading as carefully as one can in Granite armour.
meanwhile... In Steel Canyon
Lieutenant Grant stepped into the entrance of Infinicorp. headquarters. Approaching the floating bot in the otherwise deserted reception, he glanced around the battle damaged walls that hadn't been repaired beyond structural damage since the incursion 3 months back.
Showing his credentials to the bot, he announced,
"I am Lieutenant Grant, United States Air Force, I am here to see Mr. Infinus. He is expecting me."
"I'm sorry sir, but Mr. Infinus is not in at this time. I will tell him you were here and contact you shortly"
Confused, Grant smartly did an about turn and marched out, pulling out a phone as he did so.
Meanwhile... back on the lower decks of the fortress
Doors along the corridor slide open and shut, but with no-one visibly going through them.
Meanwhile..
Assasion's floor lift touched down in a darken room into a it's holder slot. As it did a control console raised up from the floor next to it, and the lights in front on him flickered on.
There in the lights was waht appeared to be three pods sticking out from the wall. The center one was empty while the left and right had the forms of people in them.
"Ah they are ready." Assasion muttered as he smirked pressing some buttons on the console, which set off the pods hissing and conpressed smoke bursting out from them as the doors slid open upwards and the wires contected to those inside unclipped off them one by one.
"Come we have work to do, before we leave this place." Assasion said walking off into the darkness away from the pods, with the other two following him.
The lights behind them came on showing the room was large and in the farside was the machine holding Timothy, and Gemme cell next to it.
Molly nodded as she looked the screen over, lowering her rifle carefully before clipping it to her back again. "Well, if can, go right ahead, but if not..."
Sam: "My mind is a swirling miasma of scintillating thoughts and turgid ideas."
Max: "Me too."

Coms bot nodded quickly before holding up it's hand to the panel. Suddenly a small amount of sparks arched betwen it's fingers and the panel before the panel came to life, it's display showing the lay out of the floor they were on.
The floor plan seem to show that the door they were heading to was a lift, and the room and corridors leading away from the area infront of the lift were storage and research labs. They seem to shown by three red dots on the screen, with more blue dots heading towards the lift area.
"I suggest we move towards that lift, before whatever those dots are get there." Coms bot said taking it's hand off the panel.
Sean's Group
XYY-004 relaxed a little as it found the heroes had easyed up their attack and lowered it's arms a little to see why, only to be met by Sean's Blade tip heading towards it's eyes.
With that the blade went in, straight between it's eyes letting off a horrible noise as it did along with the sparks from the metal on metal.
"We don't have time to play." Was all Sean said as he pulled the blade back out again and the bot fell backwards lifeless onto the metal lab floor.
" we could make some ..no no may be not .."
Rik did a rapid scan of the room ..
" this looks techy , over to you Sean .."
Rik relaxed and started peering at the dead robot ...
Molly nodded once more with a slight smile as she turned to make her way to the lift.
"Well, then... shall we?"
Sam: "My mind is a swirling miasma of scintillating thoughts and turgid ideas."
Max: "Me too."

Sean turn and started to walk away from the now dead bot, looking at the rows of pods for a moment.
"So this is where they all are.. right spread out and see if theres a way to either get them out, or at least send them out of this place people." Sean said still looking at the pods, his voice seem to be much more angery than before the fighting.
Red Commissar nodded and moved quickly around the room, locating the doors and planting the sticky EMP mines on the edges to prepare for any overwhelming ambushes as Rik and Sean looked for a way to free the hostages from their pods or the pods themselves.
"I knew I should have brought blow-torch..."
Catz strolled towards the lift, the heavy rock feet thudding against the floor "To the lift it is then."
Rik trailed behind Sean watching how Sean dealt with the pods .....
Meanwhile Mr Lumps slowly placed his foot on the head of the fallen XYY-004 , and slowly started to crush the bots skull ..
Sean's Group
AS the group moved between the pod rows there were those which were fully on, the light from them showing only the outline and dark figure of that person inside it, so were cracked and the light seem to be only a flicker.
The darker flickering lighted pods, seven in number, were covered in a thick layer of dew which once sean wiped off the one he was at made him jump back a little.
"Holy [censored].. ok that was.. eww.." Sean muttered looking away from pod.
Inside the person was dead, and was already showing the signs that they had been dead for a time.
At the far end of the room beyond the last row of pods was a control station, lit by a light from above it, it lay the same way the XYY-004 head had rolled to before being crushed by Mr Lumps.
Molly's Group
Coms Bot followed on around the corner and then the next as they made their way to the lift area which lay only a few more corridors ahead, in the distance the ehcos of more metal feet could be heard coming from the other ways to the lift area.
Molly picked up the pace a little, her hand slowly reaching to grab the rifle as she charged down the corridor.
"I think we -might- wanna get a move on, huh?"
As her brisk walk evolved into a short dash, her boots kicked in one more time, hurling her along faster then on foot.
"Last one there's... well, probably putting us at riiiisk!" she cheerfully chimed mid-flight.
Sam: "My mind is a swirling miasma of scintillating thoughts and turgid ideas."
Max: "Me too."

Coms bot nodded to Molly before sprinting towards the area of the lift down the corridor, running up behind Molly as she flew along.
"Should I give miss Ashlee a hand? Her armour form does seem quite slow." Coms bot said looking breifly over it's left shoulder.
"All depends as who can type faster.. And who can figure out atleast a thousand odd codes.."
Catz landed on her feet, sitting on top of the downed Robot she pulled from the wall "But if Molly's our weapons expert here then I'm sure she can crack a lock."
