"Yes, yes, I am sure." Pan's voice was absolutely full of sarcasm as he replied to the Comrade. He crossed his arms and smiled with his mouth closed. A knowing, smile, but if he was offended, he didn't let it show. At any rate, his attention was soon drawn to the space ship, with him briefly muttering "I have been to space," in response to Comrade Frost's statement about space and criminals and malcontents, but again, his attention was drawn away as the space aliens left their spaceship. He was away from Comrade Frost and by Judy, Ashley and Danica's side in a second, clasping his hands together as Ashley and the space alien talked and Judy greeted these space aliens, obviously knowing them, and... He looked between Ashley and Fa'Rua a few times, his smile widening. "Oooooooo!"

Forever Boy "Now's your momentFloating in a blue lagoonBoy, you better do it soonNo time will be betterShe don't say a word, and she won't say a word" With Micah playing, Pan continued his song, leaning in closer to Micah on the, singing softly into the microphone, before turning around and pointing straight at Muirne and Luke mid kiss. A large glowing pink and red heart exploded up around them, making sure that everyone knew while Pan grinned. "Until you kiss the girlHa ha ha!"

"Show them Peter Pan!" Pan helpfully added to Danica as she guided the youngsters back into the shell. Then, he turned to the dear comrade, with an eyebrow raised. "All the stories, you say? And what stories would that be? And who would they be?" He was grinning ear to ear now, while he waved his hand about, looking to the elephant, a long, tall fence appearing along the coast line, hopefully keeping it from having any ideas about continuing further.

I'll be using Charlie's Well-Informed and Online Research to use his Computers skill for him having done research on the area before going there! That's a result of 27 with Skill Mastery. Any other knowledge I can pick up with that?

Nevermore II Another turn, another barely missed red light. Alek would be pissed if he discovered this later on, but honestly? Charlie was good with it. El's arms around him, and her little challenges before, he felt like showing off a bit. "Sure, don't worry. I don't wanna dredge up any bad memories or anything like that." They were almost there now, great. "I was only in the trouble I put myself in." Alright, that might have sounded wrong, but eh, this was something where Charlie had no issue being honest. "The Ravens have always been my heroes. I wanted to be like them. Solve mysteries, stop bad guys, keep people safe." A final turn, and El could see the Millenium Mall before them now, in all its glory. "Turns out I'm pretty good at it." And finally, he came to a stop outside the mall. "And here's the Millenium Mall! What do you think?"

GM While Watson moved away from the display of lightning and power, Holmes watched "Child." Holmes stood up, approaching Eira. He stood high above her. "Victori will fall. It is just a matter of time. The summer will come to an end. But by all means, uplift us. Make us better. Call for the help that this world needs." He looked at Micah. "Yes, yes. It is all very interesting. I suppose that some psychic imprint of our greatest stories would reach your world, hmm? Passing on to the right people? The ones that are just innately attuned to our world? I have long theorized that something like that would be likely." He waved Micah off. "It does not matter. But your power does." Watson interrupted. "No more riddles, Holmes. Time is short. The summer is ending." He focused on Eira. "Victori is your best choice. Go the Tham. Find the Mad Doctor. If anyone can help you, he is the one." "As for you," Holmes continued to look at Micah, "the great beasts still live. The Great White Whale has journeyed beyond worlds before. Perhaps you should seek it out?" Watson had turned from Eira, moving some rubble away. "Holmes. They will be here soon." Holmes rolled his eyes with an annoyed groan. "Yes. I know." He looked straight at Pan. "The Hooked Man found a likely ally in the Professor of Crime. You must all leave before he arrives, or your story will end before its time." He focused on Pan's eyes. "Fly to the West. Fly as far as you can, then a bit further. Beyond the land, beyond the sea, into the dreams and wishes of children. There you will find your Wish Isle." He turned, moving towards Watson, who had uncovered a hidden tunnel under the rubble. "Now, begone. Make your own stories, while I attend to mine."
-
Forever Boy "Stop." Pan's voice was small, as he looked back at Eira and Micah, and the argument that was starting between them. "I am sorry, Eira, but Micah is right. This is my world. Not yours. Things are different here." He paused briefly, like he was looking for words. "We need the Pixies at the Wish Isle. If there is any way to get back to Earth, then they will know it." Another brief pause, as he looked at Eira and Micah once more. "I will get you home. I promise." Stopping, he looked at Holmes and Watson. "Tell me how to help my friends. Then I will slay the Hooked Man."

Yep, no rolls needed to get rid of one of the bikes.

GHOST Now this guy? This guy was annoying. He just kept swerving and moving and getting just out of Ghost's reach whenever he touched him. Like... how? And how fast were those bikes going, anyway? He had to actually go fast down here to keep up. The sinking feeling hit, but Ghost pushed forward, through it. Great. Another guy that could affect him. Even under ground. That wasn't something that usually happened. Catching up to the Born Loser he reached up again and pulled... and had the guy swerve again at just the last moment.

GM Angel was silent. He wore black and chains. A hood pulled up near around his head, where he wore what seemed like the top of a skull as a mask. His black clothes had the markings of all the bones of a skeleton underneath it. Leader or not, he stayed silent as he drove straight towards Cueball. They drove fast. Much faster than they should have been able to. Something was up with those bikes. Something that Raina might be able to see. The four riders were obviously magic. She could see that much. The bikes as well. "Ey, boss! Got somebody tryin' t' catch me!" The Born Loser was thin. Way too thin. His lips pulled back in a smile, he started swerving and turning, moving out of the way, doing everything he could to make it difficult on Ghost. He wore a Devil's Advocates jacket on his upper body, his thin arms leaving plenty of space free in the armholes. His long blonde, almost orange, hair was slicked back, held in place by a red bandana. "C'mon, now! Gotta do better than that!" Then, Raina, Ghost and Merlin would all feel it. A sinking feeling, something gnawing at them. Like something was trying to starve them. Cueball smashed into some cars, toppling them with his axe. Luckily not the one that Merlin and Sparkler were hiding behind. "Boss! There's some witch girl and a guy that walks through walls! They took down Buddy!" One rider was down. Three riders remained.

Remember Fatigue and Area saves for Merlin too!

Little Mermaid II Mette was completely fine with admitting that she yelped when the ice broke and the man had been replaced with a giant wolf-man. This was... this was so weird. Like that werewolf thing back in October, but, y'know, different. This guy was big, towering above them, howling to the sky. Her first instinct was to pounce. Hit the guy, send him flying, but... was he going to attack them? He might still be nice, right? She looked at him, saw the look in his lupine eyes, the hunger, the hate and... Nope. This guy was going to eat them if he could. "What do we do?" she asked Dee. She had to know, right? She was the leader here.

Archer II Shooting Star pulled the big guy out of the way. Good. If she wanted to dance with him, she could. With the path free ahead, Connor ducked under the two brawling powerhouses, slipping into the staircase and saw the last of the attackers running below. Connor considered something painful for a moment, but it would be useful if they guy could answer some questions. Picking a particular arrow, he let it fly. It hit perfectly, right in the man's chest, exploding around him in a massive amount of quickly hardening riot foam. Alright, then. The big guy was next.
-
GM "LET ME GO!" Billy struggled. And he fought. And he generally did everything he could to try and get free. Not that it helped much. Despite being dosed up on aMaZo, he was not about to get free. Shooting Star was just that much stronger. It seemed that a super drug wasn't a match for her, after all. The last man continued down the winding staircase, as fast as he could securely move. He was done with all of this.
-
With Billy held, Archer runs after the Attacker. With him still on the stairs, Archer takes a shot with a Snare Arrow with Autofire: 32. And that's a crit. So... DC+5 from crit, +3 from Autofire = DC24 Reflex Save for the bad guy. Reflex Save: 14, bound and helpless. You're up. 31 - Archer II - 3HP - Unharmed 17 - Shooting Star - 0HP - Unharmed 7 - Billy - Bruise (x1) 7 - Attackers - x4 -- Attacker 1: KO -- Attacker 2: KO -- Attacker 3: KO -- Attacker 4: Bruise (x1), BOund and Helpless

Nevermore II By the time Muirne reached the gate, Charlie was already on his bike and in costume, motioning for her to get on. The Feather was fast and silent, racing throug the streets towards Southside. If Charlie had been by himself or any of the other Ravens, he would have taken his time, but this was different. Luke was already there, and well... couldn't leave his friend in trouble alone, could he now? It wasn't long before they reached Luke, with Muirne slipping off the bike. Charlie just grinned as he looked between the two, leaning over the bike. "Codenames." There was a laugh in his voice at the reminder. Honestly, he just wanted to hear Muirne say "Hey Nightscale" in the same tone. Stepping off the bike, letting his cape fall behind him, he moved closer to the others. "Gangs and demons all over. Kinda weird, even for Southside."

Stealth 25 with Skill Mastery. Initiative: 23 Are any of the bad guys in a position where Charlie can get to them without the others noticing?
-
GM The man running from Muirne was screaming by now. "Stay away! Stay away from me! You're all monsters!" His panic was very real, as he scrambled down the street, stumbling and crawling away, backing up against a wall. "Leave me alone! Just stay away!" The older man was groaning. "It... it hurts." He slumped down as Mette and Dee checked up on him, but they couldn't find anything. Suddenly, he screamed, clutching his chest once more. Black ice spread out from the left side of his chest, just over his heart, covering his entire body. He stayed frozen for a brief second, then it broke, and the man was gone, replaced with a massive wolf-man creature with dark grey fur. Its mouth seemed impossibly large, even larger as it opened its mouth and howled to the sky. Around them, two young men and a young woman clutched their chests and screamed, before likewise being covered in black ice.

Let us see some initiative rolls!

Forever Boy Pulling out of the long kiss, his lips brushing against Eira's slightly, Pan smiled. "It has certain advantages, yes." He paused, looking up at Micah and Judy as they moved about, playing and singing. He looked like he gave it some thought, then his smile went just a bit too wide. Then he was gone, golden trail behind him, now by Micah and Judy's side. "I think I will borrow that!" He quickly snatched the microphone out of Judy's hand and grinned at Micah. "Keep up, my friend!" No introductions needed, no. He just started singing, starting out slow at first, with no background music... "Sha-la-la-la-la-la, my, oh, my!Look at the boy too shy!Ain't gonna kiss the girl!Sha-la-la-la-la-la, ain't that sad?Ain't it a shame, too bad!You're gonna miss the girl!" Music kicked in around them, not just Micah's guitar but all the other instruments that Pan thought was needed, as he continued to sing a somewhat different version of Kiss the Girl. It was time for everyone to start dancing, was it not?

He's emitting some kind of signal, but it is encrypted. And there's some kind of response signal flowing to him, also heavily encrypted.

Nevermore II Charlie grinned at the message. Yeah, alright, Luke was in, and already on his way. He should've figured that Luke would already be there. If it was anything he had any connection to, then yeah, he would've gone already. OMW Backpack slung over his shoulder, he was heading towards the garages while sorting through the contacts on his phone. Who else, then? They didn't really know what was going on exactly, and Luke was pretty much anything but stealthy. Sure, he had that covered, but someone a bit more subtle than Luke would probably be a good idea. Muirne. Charlie grinned again. He was sure Luke would appreciate if he brought Muirne along. Me and Luke could use some help Meet me by the gate and we'll go meet him?
