[h3]Estella[/h3] To some extent the race thing was stupid, but forgoing the thought she loaded up in her ship and took off. Once she was seated she let the thing loose. Not having to deal with terrain she flew over everything and was the first of the team to arrive. An unfair advantage perhaps, but that was the least on her mind. Some of the others were already there. Several of them she hadn't seen in years and there were a couple she didn't recognize. The first task was to find anyone who was still alive. Telepathy was her best bet and wouldn't be hindered by the remains of the building. [color=indianred][u]If you can hear me respond with your thoughts. Where were you when the building collapsed?[/u][/color]" [h3]Kagerou[/h3] She could feel some of the pressure let up. From the life forces she was sensing the graduated students were coming to rescue them. That was fine, a little help never hurt anyone. Suddenly she heard the voice of the alien girl, Estella, in her head. "If you can hear me respond with your thoughts. Where were you when the building collapsed?" Excellent, they had communication. [color=plum][u]Good to hear you again Estella. I have a majority of the students with me in Power Development. I think that Kalinda and John are trying to make their way to us. Tell them to step back.[/u][/color]" Time to make a way out of here. [h3]Estella[/h3] "[color=indianred][b]John, Kalinda, move back! Kagerou is going to do something.[/b][/color]" After having the chance to back up a few feet several more holes in rapid succession punched through in a circle. Material inside the circle began to groan as it slowly rotated and wrenched itself away from the rest and began to rise out of the ground like a core sample. Once it was clear it leaned over and dropped to pieces over the ground. There was now an vertical tunnel down to where Kagerou and the students were.
