When Nigthingale didn't follow Cedric, the boy went back, only to catch Nightingale saying: 'I'd like to join you', and all the stuff that happened after that. The boy was surprised, and a little pissed. Yes, the government was filled with assholes - his own treatment was proof of that. That didn't change the fact that 1.) He did not want people siding with the Mercs or Corporates, because those guys were assholes [i]individually[/i] while the Government was assholish [i]collectively[/i] (except for Elena), and, as far as he was concerned, those were two sides of the same coin. And, of course, 2.) He'll get punished worse if Nightingale defected! 

So, the boy, sensibly, hid behind a crate and asked Elena for backup, and [i]fast[/i]. He also sent a recording of Nightingale's offer to defect - his suit had recording equipment.

Due to the expected explosions not sounding, Constantine knew that he was in a bind. Actually, ever since he had entered the facility lightly armed, trusting only in his powers and his ability to do an 'Indy Ploy' to help him, he had been in a bind; he had just ignored it. Dangit all, he was a [i]spy[/i]; with years of experience - how could he do such a rookie mistake? But not everything was hopeless; he still had his powers, his aforementioned light arms, and, actually, he had backup - Elena Reyes herself. He had already forewarned her about his coming excursion to the facility, and requested her to send backup - informal backup, of course - should he not appear after a period of time. Said period was passing in 3...2...1...0.

Now all he had to do was to last the night, and to do that, he had to begin moving, navigating the passageways, always being mindful of what was around the corner. He can still decieve people's eyes, and he did just that with the first two take-down squads that he encountered. The first one, he just fled invisibly from. The second...he was more creative.

Let's just say with the second group, he caused an Eldritch-seeming sign to appear before them - he was around a corner, so they won't accidentally shoot him if they shot the sign, then began transforming the enemy team's visages, making them look, to each other, like horrible, inhuman monsters, think humanoid beings with multiple eyes and mouths, with cancerous growths and bony spikes, whose inestines spilled out and became snake-like, moving of their own accord.

The reaction was inevitable - the group began shooting each other and themselves, and the cameras, which were also decieved, saw the grisly sight of the multiple murder-suicides. Now, they would think that an Eldritch-themed Meta was inside, causing more chaos...
