Doc Mid-Nite was still evacuating the museum and gift shop areas with the civilian manager Gary. "I can't leave for five minutes can I Gary?" Flash asks with a chuckle. "We got everybody out, we still don't know what's going on..." Gary said sounding winded. "Something came through the vents, people started hallucinating. The walls shook and soon after Red Tornado came over the comms. I called emergency crews for the civilians effected by the gas or whatever. We still don't know what's happening on the other side of the wall..." Mid-Nite explained. "It's okay, I got it..." Flash stated vibrating his molecules through the wall to see the chaotic scene before him. Red Tornado seemed to be on the lookout for anything out of the ordinary creating whirlwinds to help disperse the chemicals in the air. [b][i]Several floors above the chaos walked the man in the purple hood calling himself Sandman. He seemed to be talking to someone, but it was unclear who, or how he was able to communicate with them.[/i][/b] "The Tower went into lockdown. I didn't expect the Tornado to be on monitor duty sixteen out of the twenty-four hours of the day. We may need a distraction across town to get the robot out of our way if we try this again." Back on the ground floor both Tornado and the Flash created tornadoes from their hands for several moments before they both stopped. "I think that's got it, Red. You see anything out of place?" asked the Flash of the android hero. Red Tornado's spinning hands came to a gradual stop, the windstorm they generated halting with them. Teamwork with The Flash... how strange. A year ago he had been the one to *defeat* Red Tornado. He wasn't attempting to make any sort of comment just yet. The android hero scanned the room (non-literally, Professor Morrow unfortunately did not install particularly advanced scanners) a second time to be certain. There was nothing he could pick up on... "I must apologize for the collateral damage done to the interior of the rooms by my aerokinesis, necessary though it may have been." the android hero continued. "I can clean everything up in no time. Barely an inconvenience." the Flash replied making quick work of the mess as heroes began coming out of the mental trip and/or drowsiness. [h3]Later...[/h3] Starman was finishing up a session in the training holo-deck with the Guardian. The two heroes fought against an enemy known to several more of the street level heroes than anyone, Blockbuster. The setting was an urban block of a nameless city with several cars, civilians, and debris in play. The objective was simple. Get the civilians to safe areas and take down Blockbuster with no major damage to the surrounding area. The obvious course of action would have been Guardian on crowd control and the guy with the cosmic weapon taking down the buff crimelord. So they did it the other way. Guardian deflected melee strikes from Blockbuster with his golden shield as Starman flew through the area and rescued the civilians in faster time. Once the crowd was dealt with Farris assisted Guardian in taking down the badguy and shortly after the holographic 'skin' of the civilian and enemy holo-droids faded as quickly as the surroundings. "Have you heard anything about the gas attack on the HQ from earlier?" Guardian asked as they made their way to the exit. "I overheard Flash talking with Hawkgirl and Steel about how a bunch of security cameras all went offline shortly before it happened. It could have been coming from the museum side of the lobby or somewhere on our side either one... who knows?" Starman replied. "Some of us didn't get to sleep it off, I had visions of Lovecraft styled space monsters eating the planet. By the time I got off the ground the sandwich I'd made was already ruined... I still need to grab some food..."
