Even though the humans thought they were so smart, Sovereign chuckled at the thought of them "containing" him. He let it all happen as they provided an opportunity of recruiting more minions. Exploiting the false sense of security they had until the ultrasonic pulse, the mastermind sandworm took the time to have an easy escape. Reaching out to an employee in his pen, he projected an apparition of a fellow employee to position him into opening the gate. Hallucinations made the employee perceive the gate release as a closing mechanism. While he perceived his actions to be locking and enforcing the pen, in reality the patsy released Sovereign in the process. With the pen open, he moved right out. To make matters worse, not even TERRA security guards were safe from inculcation. The chaos was compounded with inculcated servants helping out their master in various ways. Whether it was opening gates, opening fire on their fellow man, distractions, or other ways of running interference, it became clear how much of a cognitive hazard Sovereign's abilities were. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Meanwhile in the Arctic Outpost 4, Elena scrambled to track multiple kaiju breaking free. "Activate all monitoring systems by Anchorage, Fairbanks, and Juneau! The populace must be evacuated and the megafauna redirected!" She knew there was no way to effectively combat the kaiju for now. With multiple Kaiju converging into the cities, there was a collision course bound to happen. Not one to take unnecessary risks, she knew that redirection was a simpler task than directly engaging. <\\:TERRA_ALERT_:_OUTPOST_4_ HAS_BEEN_BREACHED://> <\\:CODENAME_WECHUGE_CAN_NO_LONGER_BE_CONTAINED://> Wechuge smelled the air with a rage, harassed by TERRA containment forces. Swiping and biting its way out of containment, the beast displayed unprecedented strength in busting through a ton's worth of solid steel. Things got even messier as the gunfire kept provoking it into attacking. Once it brute-forced its way out, the giant polar bear headed towards its usual stomping ground. Smelling what seemed to be a large whale, it was on guard. The bear was hungry though, it's at the moment planning on getting a good meal after threats have been dealt with. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sheldon assumed that the "god" he serves has been out and about after receiving further orders. After he covered up sabotage on Sovereign's orders, the Minnesotan moved onto the next task. Cleanup has become a specialty these days, using his background as a technician to cover up for Sovereign as needed. Said orders were telepathically relayed, so there was little chance of interception. Another inside job against TERRA and other "interlopers" was predicted. Sheldon was contracted before by a variety of employers. A janitor disguise was just plain cliché to him, meaning his expertise as a technician is his primary resource. As he got into a white van full of tools for the trade, he drove to his destination.
