He really didn't want to finish the machine considering. He wasn't even actually in the room where the contraption was at the moment, so he was using what he had with him to see if he could get out. The building itself was probably what was preventing him from getting any sort of signal out, that being the first thing he tried. He was fairly certain at this point that no one had gotten the signal that he had managed to send out. He had dismantled one of the gauntlets from his suit, keeping the other one on, and was using it for scrap metal and spare parts at this point. The other thing he had started dismantling was the lamps and lights in the room, as well as any outlets he could find in order to get scrap wire to use to splice things together. He wasn't sure how well things were going to work out for him, since this was a bit of a make shift item, but he had managed to get it so that the object was able to shrink down. If only he had been able to repair his suit, but it was mostly scrap metal, everything else in it was completely fried. He was lucky that a few things worked in the gauntlets to help him out. It didn't matter too much though, as now he had managed to create a flamethrower of sorts, so he at least had a weapon of some kind. It was a bit surprising that he had managed to effectively build it in a room that definitely didn't have the tools that he needed for it, but it worked! After all, he had tested it out somewhat on the door, so he was ready to try and get out of this place. Now if only he was lucky and didn't get caught. [hr][hr] [b]Arthur[/b] Arthur would be able to essentially bash the filing cabinet open, it would make a slight bang sound as it was able to be popped. Inside, he'd find that for the most part the filing cabinet was kind of empty. Except that is for one file, that had a picture of the man who was now a corpse lying on the bed in the same room as him. There was a note of sorts pinned to the file as well, [i]Test Completed[/i]. It was a bit strange, but the info inside the file was something that would make many who knew the name and identity of the man run cold. It was a file on the man in question obviously, but the name that was at the top said [i]Jason Wyngarde[/i]. Anyone who knew anything about the Brotherhood would recognize that name. It was the name of Mastermind, the [i]original[/i] one. Magneto's right hand man when it came to manipulating others in order to get more mutants to their cause. The file mentioned Polaris, who attacked him and essentially made it so that he had to live on life support due to all of the damage she had caused to his body. Now all that seemed to be left of him was a dead body. [b]Elara[/b] [color=6750A9]"I'll be honest Vertigo, I have no idea. From what I know, they left on a whim and didn't think to ask Gardner to access the building. I will say this, that group is more like a ticking time bomb... You call them loyal employees? I wouldn't exactly call the group that... A few members of the group are more then willing to bend a few rules here and there, and some of them were only really loyal to Harrison Snow, before he was murdered a few months back... They never figured out what happened there though... Maybe they went AWOL because of that? Trying to figure out things like that? Nah, Watts definitely I don't think would do something like that, maybe it has to do with the incident involving the Brotherhood last month. Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver tried to steal a genetic splicer from Serval, the team went out and stopped it, but it resulted in the device exploding and killing one of the members. Figured you ought to know that considering pretty sure most of Serval tried to erase the whole incident from the records."[/color] [b]Casey and Jolene[/b] [color=8C2323]"There are a few associates of mine, a woman by the name of Yuriko and another by the name of Martinique, do not harm them. They are down there I believe trying to deal with the situation to the best of their abilities. They are likely going to help you somewhat,"[/color] Madelyn said, leading Casey to the elevator where Jolene already was. [color=8C2323]"They as I said before, are on the bottom most floor, good luck."[/color] When they got into the elevator, and hit the button for the bottom floor, the elevator just bumped along somewhat, as if there was something causing a slight problem. However they needn't worry, as they soon reached the bottom floor. They wouldn't hear anyone, or see anyone, however what they did see was what appeared to be a massive cave in from an explosion that showed parts of the floor above them.

Who the hell was that guy? Not to mention why the hell was he here? As he didn't even seem to care that they were there, only that apparently they interrupted something that was going on. The guy definitely was a weirdo in her mind, maybe they could figure out something about him later, just not now. [color=303DFF]"Damn it what the hell Watts?"[/color] Andrew snapped, stumbling backwards slightly from the pain in his shoulder from Watts effectively ripping the arrow from his shoulder. [color=303DFF]"Look, we don't have time for this, okay? We've got to, you know, dismantle this thing that I helped make because I was an idiot,"[/color] he said, motioning towards the machine. [color=303DFF]"We can't let them continue using this thing, since otherwise things could end really badly, so mind helping me out a bit with that?[/color] [color=A4FFFC]"...What exactly is that thing supposed to do anyway?"[/color] Sapphire asked, walking over to look at the machine that Andrew had mentioned. [color=303DFF]"...What it's supposed to do isn't really important... What matters is the fact that if they use it, they can potentially control the world, if they use it correctly of course. But odds are they do know how to use it, meaning that if it is still around, they could easily repair any potential damage done to it and use it still. So would you just help me with this already?"[/color] [color=A4FFFC]"You act like I know anything about machinery. I know medicines and medical stuff, nothing about engineering. So either you explain yourself or what we should do more, or we should just start smashing the damn thing."[/color] [color=303DFF]"Smashing the thing would probably work just fine. As for who the archer was, I have no idea, all I know is that he showed up here asking about Pryor. And my suit was fried in the explosion, I had a bit of a flamethrower I had managed to splice together for a little while, but that archer hit me, and everything in the room really, with an EMP pulse arrow, shutting it down entirely,"[/color] he said, shaking his head at Belladonna.
