"...no." Frances walked back from the barrier, hands falling to her sides, a mutinous look on her face. "I'm not...I'm not going to talk about family like that in front of a bunch of flatscans, and I sure as Hell am not going to blame anyone else for the things I've done." She crossed her arms, unable to keep her body still. "Maybe I have been lied to, and maybe Grandpa was worse than I thought, but I am nobody's pawn, and I am not going to...to debase myself, like some unbred two-bit meta-hood, so I can go to some happy, hand-holding jail with some drunk and fliers." She looked away, but despite the defiance, her aunt could hear the grief in her voice. "I'll talk to the lawyer, so we can do it right, and so I don't screw anything up. But that's it. It's too late for anything else."

Well, he can't possibly resist that - even the sheet I'm using has no Sense Motive for him at all! http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/4458128/ 21 So he is staggered and dazed, ow

"This is..." The words were thick as molasses in Frances' throat, emotions churning under the surface that reminded Paige of the sounds of a distant wild fire in California. "This is all very interesting, but even if I believed it, it doesn't change anything." She looked at Paige, anger and grief boiling barely contained beneath her surface. "I'm not like you, or Josh, or...or my mother. No flatscan judge or jury is ever going to let me go, and they're not going to let you keep it a secret, either. They're not stupid, not really, and they know what I am and what I've done. The only way I'm ever getting out of here is if someone busts me out and doesn't screw it up like last time. And if the government finds out where our family is, they'll just take Josh's kids, and Julie's kids, and put them with little flatscan families where we'll never find them again. We won't just be gone, we'll be...lost." She shook her head. "If I stand trial, a real trial, not some bullcrap psychiatric hearing, I can show the metahumans of the world they don't have to be afraid of their flatscan governments telling them how to live...or of other metas telling them what to do."

Comrade Frost: Standard Action: +2 Power Attack with Damage 12 (Targeted Area) http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/4457567/ = rolled a 1! HP! http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/4457568/ = 19 + 6 = 25, which I believe does hit, yes. That will be a DC 29 Tou save for Famine.

Downtime exploded into action, zipping through the all-too-human trio that had appeared at the other end of the hallway. It was a matter of inches every way; he grabbed Arrowhawk and tossed him against the wall with a bang, backhanded Mindsteel across the face and against the wall, and hit Foreshadow in the gut hard enough to send the other hero staggering. An instant later, the super-fast thug was back among his criminal fellows, turning to the so-far-silent black-clad fourth man. "Hey, do your thing!" With a nod, the other man disappeared - and suddenly was in the elevator again! Only the fact that he'd done this trick before saved Crimson Tiger, as she was fast enough to dodge as he grabbed for her midsection! When he vanished, he left pain behind - and looking down, she could see a neatly-removed section of her costume over her stomach in the shape of a human hand, and feel the burning sensation underneath where the outer layer of skin had gone with it! This was no worse than a sunburn - but it could have been so much more than that!

Mystery Ninja Teleporter isn't used to working as support personnel, but he's not going to let his investment here go to waste.

Frances' face fell - whatever she'd been expecting to hear from her aunt, it hadn't been that. She looked down at her sparking hands, suddenly unable to meet Paige's eyes. She breathed in and out, fast, like a big animal trapped in a too-small cage - it was clear she was agitated, and getting more so by the minute. "What-what did Carolyn say when you told her this?" She looked up, and her eyes burned with unshed tears. "Because she's not old enough to remember that day, but I am. If my mother was so righteously telling you all about how she was getting murdered by her father, why couldn't I hear any of it?" She smashed a closed fist against the barrier, nearly driving herself backwards from the redirected blow. "Goddamn it, if you're so righteously heroic, why didn't you ever go back for us? I saw your pictures from the Terminus Invasion, you know Lady Liberty! You could have brought in the Freedom League if you cared so much!"

"...what, he dropped the rocks on them?" Frances gave Paige a fierce look, pressing her hands flat against the transparent barrier of her cell, the energized shell sparking slightly around her hands, like a static shock that never quite went away. "That's stupid, Paige, and I am not stupid. I saw the bodies when I was six years old, and you don't forget something like that! I saw what did it, dammit!" It seemed to be a sore point for the younger woman, who come to think of it hadn't shown a sign of any powers besides pyrokinesis and flight that Paige had ever heard of. "Or is that some kind of metaphorical hero hippie-dippie crap about how his crappy leadership got them killed? Because I can believe that. God knows he never did anything I thought was a good idea. or anything fun."

Fast-Forward had clocked himself and knew his top speed, at least relative to the world around him. Running all-out, he could go Mach 50, fast enough that he could have launched himself into orbit if he'd been so inclined. When he ran into the apartment building, his feet barely touching the ground, he could have covered the entire building, down to every square inch, and all around it in less than a second. If everyone in there had been standing still, he could have evacuated the block between one of Paige's thoughts and the next. But they weren't all standing still - and speed couldn't solve everything. The elementary school kids, two who had barricaded themselves in their bedroom and whose door he finally had to accelerate open. Saved. Their mom, who must have been right at the window when the drone's blast had come through the glass. Gone. The maintenance guy who'd been trapped by a falling timber knocked loose by the earthquake. Saved. The moms and babies, a stroller group, who'd been hiding in the third floor stairwell. Saved. The family near the top, at what must have been an entry point for an Omegadrone he remembered Jive having taken down earlier. Gone. There were a lot of buildings that night.

Downtime: 34 Mystery Ninja Teleporter: 29 (he has a higher modifier, and so goes first) Arrowhawk: 29 Sandstone: 25 Foreshadow: 24 Mindsteel: 18 Crimson Tiger: 16 Gamma: 11 Breaker: 4, +1 HP Remember how many HP you've got, and make sure to note expenditures. Downtime: Lacking many of his usual options given the confined space, Downtime goes ahead and uses his Targeted Area attack vs. the new arrivals. True Random Number Generator Min: Max: Result: 19 19 + 12 = 31, which I believe does hit everybody. That's a DC 27 Tou save for Arrowhawk, Mindsteel, and Foreshadow.

"Grandpa wasn't a prince, but he didn't deserve to be shot down like a dog by some superannuated flatscan piece of trash. Mind-controlled suicide my ass, you don't live to be a hundred years old and just give up!" Frances flinched and looked away from Paige's gaze, then pulled her mouth into an angry line. "Besides, if he was that free with the mind-screws, I'd probably be tied down with brats just like Julie and Josh. After that..." She shot her gaze in the directions of the cameras in the corridor, and smirked. "After that thing with Gamma, though, I convinced him and all the others sniffing around I could do more for the family on my own. I..." As if by an effort, Frances tore the conversation from herself and looked at Paige. "What does it matter what they wanted?" she asked her aunt seriously. "They tried to leave, they got dead - Grandpa tried to fight and he got dead. Flatscans'll come for all of us one of these days."

Frances stared at her, eyes burning with emotion, and suddenly spat against the glass, spittle dripping down the transparent barrier. "Screw you, Aunt Paige," she said with venom in her voice that burned as coldly as her usual flames were hot. "My mom died because she and the others had to fight the Atoms and the other race traitors all alone, while you were busy whoring around with your punk boyfriend. Look at you, with your goddamn Hollywood face lift, like you're not as old as that flatscan nobody." She shot a look at her would-be lawyer, then looked back at Paige. "Don't get me wrong," she added, "I'm not a goody-goody like Julie or Josh or the twins, I've actually been outside the compound for fun a few times. It's real nice out there, especially if you know how to party. But leaving family? Leaving family to the Atoms? That's the goddamned worst. Do your kids even know who you are? Or who you used to be?"

"He thinks he can frighten you by insulting your nation," said Harrier, all but Caradoc's holographic image bled from his face. "This world may fall, but it will not fall to you, and it will not fall today. You can be herald of no army of Omega's in this place with so little entropic radiation in the air - and not with those scars upon your face," he added. "They will never take us back, Newman. Even a free drone who loves Omega still proves the promises of the Doom Coil a lie. The coming of the Terminus to this place will bring only your own destruction. What do you plan?" "Yeah, mate, you better start talking! If you're some kind of freaky Omega botherer, this isn't like old times anymore! You-" The Larrakite was bounding towards Newman, his usual patter of insults and jibes taking on a harder edge now that he realized what a monster he faced. As the Australian champion got within grabbing distance of Newman, though, suddenly Newman snatched up a walking stick from his desk side - and in a combat manuever instantly and lethally familiar to Harrier and Argonaut, impaled the Larrakite through the face and out the back of the skull, bone and flesh crunching like rotten wood as a steel canehead erupted like climbing spikes, letting Newman smash the body to the floor with bone-cracking intensity. "No more human lies!" the former drone gloated as armor erupted from beneath his skin. "I said they could take me, not you, whoreson!" he sneered at the fallen Larrakite before returning his attention to Harrier and Argonaut, hardly paying attention to Vector at all. "Come on, then! IN HIS SACRED NAME!"

"She gets a fresh copy of the newspaper every morning, has an hour of uninterrupted TV access in the common room every day, and can take one book out from the library every week. If she goes another two weeks without any incidents, she gets an hour on the surface to go with her TV time, and three books, and so on. Normally she'd have more privileges by now, but things have been difficult." Schmitt checked his sheet. "Her most recent reading material was...the Count of Monte Cristo, and the last television show she watched was-" He raised an eyebrow. "Supercrime! - the Fourth of July Special." That particular episode had revolved around the history of all-American superheroes and supervillains, complete with a guest visit by Ace Danger explaining to the kids why you shouldn't eat manaka root - it was the sort of thing that could be safely broadcast in a prison without too many worries. The psych ward was pleasant enough when they arrived; the walls decorated in soothing beige and other neutral colors, gentle music playing over the loudspeakers. As a new arrival, Ember was near the door, but there was enough time for Christie to stop and make sure Paige was ready to go on before they kept going to Frances Psion's cell. Frances was short, like her mother, with red hair cut prison-short instead of the fiery mane Paige had seen on the television and in the footage of her father's murder. Dressed in a prison jumpsuit, she was standing in a sparsely-decorated cell as she peered through the transparent covering over her cell's door - looking right at her aunt. Her face, with its now mostly-healed bruises, was set in a look of calculated boredom that looked exactly like how her mother had looked when she was in a bad mood.

Two weeks after the events of "Cry for Justice" All in all, the murder of Professor Parker Psion and the capture of his granddaughter had gone largely unnoticed by the Freedom City press. Even after the attempted break-out two weeks earlier, one that had seemingly targeted Frances Psion in particular, the media hadn't really gotten involved. A superhero had been mind-controlled by a suicidal elderly supervillain; an attempt to break out said supervillain's confederate had been foiled, and that, or so it seemed, was that. - "We moved her back into the psych ward after the incident with the Crime League two weeks ago," explained Captain Harold Schmitt as their monorail car rumbled along through the depths of Blackstone, the very mountain seeming to threaten to close in on her as they descended deeper and deeper beneath the sandstone. They weren't that far underground, not objectively, anyway. "Normally procedure is to put failed escapees down in maximum, but since she never actually left her cell, we got her back in the psych ward as soon as a bed opened up again. We haven't had any violent incidents since then - even though she's refused medication."

Frost was able to conscript one of the League's Javelins for the flight to Central Asia - since he had no idea how to fly a modern jet, and trusted specialists to do their job, he spent most of his time in the passenger compartment looking over maps of Aralkum. Sleepless and tireless, the icy vampire was obviously distracted by their situation. He occasionally picked up a heatpack from his single suitcase and massaged it until it froze, then tossed it in the plane's trash until he needed a new one. The plane overall was spacious and well-furnished, complete with sleeping arrangements that none of the passengers actually needed - nor did the pilots for what was a journey of just a few hours thanks to the jet's hypersonic, Daedalus-built engine. It was early morning Freedom City time, late afternoon Central Asian time, when Frost came out of a cockpit conference with the pilot and co-pilot, who had been good the whole time about letting Kimber see how the plane worked - especially with the baffles that protected the hypersonic craft's otherwise sensitive electronics from necromagnetic interference. "I have news. Tashkent has denied our permission to land. Since we are technically on their soil, is problem. But there is good news. You can fly," he said to Kimber, "as can I. And Lucy, can you, ah...do you parachute?" he asked her solicitously.

Breaker's blow smashed open the security screen that had dropped between the heroes and the villains upon the arrival of their elevator, just as the cascading fire alarms sent dozens of gallons of water and fire suppressant foam down on the hallway. Briefly taken aback by the sudden onslaught of chemicals, the criminals at Ember's cell were unable to stop the heroes as they came pouring out of the elevator, ready for action. From inside her cell, Ember pressed her bruised face to the glass, watching like a passionate sports spectator. "C'mon! The hallway's full of flatscans! Don't you people have any regard for human life? Watch yourselves," she added to the others, "Somebody get this on tape! You know what these miserable unbred bastards like to do to their superiors when they think no one is watching!" That little incident, where a mind-controlled Jack Wolf had supposedly killed a supervillain, had been in the news recently, now that the heroes thought about it - it wasn't something that had gotten a lot of attention outside of a narrow circle. Nobody really gave a damn about the Psions. - Down below, the sudden spray of water and fire suppressant left the heroes on the ladder soaked as they made their way to the bottom - to the far end of a wild melee in the corridor, just as the supervillain Breaker went charging through the small cluster of supervillains standing outside the door of a notorious prisoner, seemingly charging right at them!
