Matt gapped in open fear as the metalic wolf came toward him. Frozen in place he hardly noticed as Daniela began attacking it with bolts of electricity. As Heidi grabbed him reality seemed to come crashing in on him and a visible yellow orange glow flickering as several images seemed to dance acrossed the glow. I shall not fear, fear is the mind killer... He never could remember all of that line. He threw up what little breakfast he had eaten and with that a sudden calm came over him. He was still scared terrified beyond anything he could remember but he would die if he did nothing.

Focusing on the present he took note of the situation. He still held the chain from the door. Daniela was hurting it but not enough yet. Jasper had ones and zeros moving acrossed her skin and her eyes were closed. She must be doing something and it had paused.

Then it hit him. "The doors are metal and that thing is not our objective. Daniela hit as hard as you can we need to get inside and close the doors."

He grabbed Heidi's arm. "We need to get inside." He tried to lead her around the beast. To find an angle to get inside.
He only hoped she would follow. Your goal for this excercise is capture the flag. Tabitha's words ringing in his head.

"Only the flag matters!" He shouted as tried to get inside.

"The doors are metal and that thing is not our objective. Daniela hit as hard as you can we need to get inside and close the doors."

"With Pleasure." Daniela said with a faint smile as her hands began to glow even brighter as she concentrated on upping the power behind her attacks. Her eyes began to glow a bright yellow color with electrical energy and the crackling yellow sparks of electricity began to glow brighter and hotter. "You guys might want to work on the door and just an FYI, it's gonna get a bit uncomfortable temperature wise around me awhile. Don't worry though, I'll keep Snoopy here busy." Daniela growled as she launched a massive electrical blast directly at the beast's head and followed it up with another rapid series of blasts that slammed into it's front legs.

She narrowed her eyes at the Mechanical wolf and grinned mockingly at it. "Let's dance, Snoopy."

9 am | Danger Room


Before Ronnie made the first move, she spotted someone else step forward. Her attention twisted and viewed Matthew head to the door. He reached a hand out then hesitated. The girl scoffed under her breath at his weakness. Her arms curled into each other while she listened to his statement. The way everyone talked, this class would seriously hurt them. She found it difficult to believe a Professor had the authority to endanger her students to the point of physical injury.

From her observations, Ronnie noticed an unsettling pattern. All the students appeared to know their powers and controlled them to higher levels than herself. A spark of irritation rubbed her wrong. She swallowed down the anger and fear at her weakness.

The dark skinned girl gave Matthew an idle, sideways glance when he finally gathered the courage to touch the door.

Her jaw tightened so not to drop when a woman, someone she guessed to be Professor North, appeared. The Professor leaned over the pad lock as she spoke the combination out loud. Ronnie immediately memorized it with surprising ease.

She took a step forward to enter it, but spotted Matthew place his glove on and do it for her. Exhaustion took him down to the ground with both the pad lock and chain in his hand. A little annoyed by his recklessness, she knew the cautious route had been blown. The doors flew open. Her ears caught the sounds of whirling gears and machinery first. Followed by the heavy clicking of something rushing toward them. Two burning red eyes peered through the darkness of a hallway as a metallic wolf bolted forward.

Ronnie’s breath caught in her throat. This wasn’t real, her logic screamed over and over in her head. She stared at the beast barreling toward them. Any normal girl her age would’ve screamed and ran, but her mind already race past that reckless thought. She fought rather than run. A few pages of her notebook fluttered, but remained fixed to the spiral binding.

As she recover from her shock, things happened faster than she could react. Two students rushed into action. Electrical energy surged from taser-girl’s hands right at the metal wolf barreling down on her. Even if the girl managed to get the mechanical beast to stop, Ronnie doubted momentum would stop. If the girl wasn’t careful, it could crash her.

All the laws of nature seemed to ignore physics. When the lightning directly impacted, the wolf skidded back. The dull, blunt nails scrapped thin lines across the tiles. It twitched then continued its approach.

Meanwhile, nerd girl had gotten to Matthew and began to help him back. If it wasn’t for taser-girl in front, the wolf would’ve mauled them.

From the corner of her vision, green glowed across the last girl’s skin. Ones and zeroes appeared and reminding Ronnie of a computer screen, the type you saw in the movies. The girl rooted herself in place as she narrowed her attention onto the beast. Immediately, Ronnie knew that look. No way in hell she would get the girl to move unless binary wanted to. An action Ronnie thought was insane for obvious reasons.

Ronnie took a cleansing breath. On her release, she let it purge her of all stress and emotion. Don’t think, just do it. She wasn’t weak or helpless, so she needed to stop acting like it. Her hand tightened about her notebook like a shield, even if she didn’t know how to use it. She overheard someone puke then mention the metal doors.

The bot looked like a Terminator version of a wolf. She held doubts about the effectiveness of the doors keeping that thing out. Especially if it had no locks on the inside. With no better solution, Ronnie dashed for the door behind vomit boy and nerd girl.

She timed her run when taser girl zapped her target again. Her attention caught the wolf’s junky movements as it stuttered and twitched. It appeared to be struggling with some unseen force, but Ronnie couldn’t tell where it originated from. She put it out of her mind for now.

When she heard vomit boy state the obvious, she couldn’t help commenting. “No shit, Sherlock. The doors aren’t going to do us much good unless we can lock them.”

Leaving nerd girl to help him, Ronnie took matters in her own hands to reach the door first. She paused long enough to grab the chain from Matt's grasp and scoop up the padlock. Thank god vomit boy didn’t spill his breakfast all over either one. After entering the doorway, she tossed her notebook onto the floor. She struggled to jerk one door closed then wrapped the chain around the handle and prepared the padlock. Her mind scrambled for the numbers in her memory.

“Yo, get your ass in here while taser girl keeps it distracted. Now!” Ronnie didn’t have time to explain the orders she barked.

They either listened or become dog food thanks to their stupidity. As each person came through the door, she assigned more tasks.

“Get the other door ready to shut it. Someone look for all the exits out of this room and find the best one.”

"Two hallways either side of reception," Heidi answered to Ronnie's commands, letting go of Matthew's arm as they slipped into the building and guiding him towards the direction of the reception desk at the back, where it's safest. His power usage had drained him, and if he used it again so soon, it might drain him more, and it wasn't very appropriate in this situation. Besides, they'd very likely need such a useful power later on. Right now, he needed to keep himself safe and recover a little.

Looking back at the door, Heidi shook her head. "Can't lock it in a way that'll keep it out forever, and this room has enough space to fight. I'd rather take the robot out now then get caught off guard on a stairwell." For a split-second pause, she began cycling through plans in her head, given what she actually knew about the powers of everybody in this group. She finally settled on a simple (to her) but effective one. She turned to Jasper.

"Back then, you stopped it by getting into its head, right? Do you think you could find out where exactly its CPU is located?

She then turned her head slightly to Ronnie, making sure both girls were in her field of view. "I'm not sure how good you are at control yet but how well can you accurately aim paper? I think I have a plan but it's going to need all of us, Daniela included. And we'll need to be fast."

The Robot Wolf, Heidi





With every glitch of the mainframe came another step. Jasper's eyes opened, the irises and pupils blown so wide her sclera didn't exist. Her heels touched the ground, rubber against concrete. Mind still firmly lodged inside the codex of the robotic animal that intended to assault her temporary team, her used it's moments of weakness and allotted enough focus to her body to move. The closer she got the easier it was to stay connected, until she was standing in the first doorway leading into the room. Dark bangs hung in her face, half obscuring inky black pupils. A hand flexed at her side, the other touched the doorframe beside her.

Flickers of images. Matthew with Heidi. Daniela. Electricity. Anger. Herself.

One virus after another. Intrusion after intrusion. It took little of her concentration to move and to listen, record everything she saw and heard for review. The majority of her processing power was thrown into combat with the AI. Foreign programming that worked just as fast as she did, adapted. Jasper took to repetitive patterns for several repetitions before changing her attack pattern so drastically it should have been someone else. Computers were her life; there wasn't one she couldn't master.

Her gaze lifted from the dog when Heidi shouted, the robot leaving her vision for half a moment while she looked at her room mate. The girl was the only one at the table who knew what she could do. The task given to her was a simple enough one, which could be more complicated with how hard the Danger Room fought against her. The only outward acknowledgement of Heidi was a single blink and an almost imperceptible nod of her head. Jasper continued to violate the system before her, now searching for information she knew it had. A proper tracker, a radio. The signal that moved the fabricated machine in front of her. As far as it was aware thus far she wasn't even there while it faced her temporary team.

Sparks flew off of it as it was blasted again. If it was thrown or destroyed, great. If not, it didn't matter. Any stray offshoots of electricity that would have landed near her were instead dragged towards her. They dissolved into her skin, adding to the growing store of power within her. Daniela would make for a good power supply if she ever needed it, though she could just as easily rob the power from a local transformer.

The electricity blasted against the mechanical wolf's head as it was sent tumbling backwards once again. Electricity seemed to surge through ever fiber of its being, causing it to stutter and slow. At the same time, it's eyes returned to their original red... and even brighter than before. It's face was beyond charred, with half the metal practically melting and drooping down its face before it hardened once again. Regardless of the state of the metal housing, the red eyes seemed to glow with malicious intent in the direction of Daniela. And despite being injured severely, it was ready to keep fighting.

The front doors did not, in fact, have a lock. At least, not until Ronnie began her process of getting the doors ready to chain up and lock. The wolf was outside of the building as the students had entered inside, and it looked ready to charge. Jasper's fight with the Danger Room would be, to an extent, taxing. Despite the majority of her efforts, the Danger Room seemed just as adaptable and quick to Jasper's probes as she was. The sudden shift in tactics and attack, however, seemed to proverbially throw it off guard. As she reached out into the simulation with her powers, she was able to track rough radio signals. The signals were scattered. The first signal came from the direction of the beast outside the building. It was fairly weak, as was another similar signal from the second floor. The strongest signal came from the third floor, and given Jasper's familiarity with traditional electronic signals... she would be certain this is the transmitter controlling the mechanical beast.

Just as Jasper got a good read on the signals, the Danger Room seemed to shift and do its best to kick her out. For a moment, all the lights and holographic projections seemed to flicker. A quick system reset was enough to hide the signals from Jasper once again. At the same moment, the mechanical beast began making its charge towards the front doors. More specifically... it was running towards Daniela.

@Brioko Jobe - The Mall - 10:41 AM



It didn't take Aya as long to find this time, now that she knew what to look for - that stillness at the center of her mind, the indefinable point that let the rest of the world melt away. Her body was unimportant. Sensation was still there - the weighty envelope in her hand, the tickle of her hair against her face, lightly blown by the AC, the smell of espresso and sugar, the dull mechanical screech of the coffee grinder underneath a singer's falsetto. But it was all as distant as the stars, faint against the light of a full moon.

The dark of her mind wrapped itself around her. She wore it like a shroud.

Hiding in shadows.

The pen slid across the paper, crisp Japanese characters forming. Aya laid in wait. There was that prickling at the back of her mind again - a misplaced familiarity. It was a different texture though. While with the last one it'd been all coal dust and smoke blackening her lungs, this one was smoother… sharp and precise, like the burn of ginger or a single, high note of a violin. It was in front of her - but there was something else too.

It was so vast as to be meaningless - like the ocean, or the sky, or time itself. Aya was nothing compared to it. She was a single candle, burnt out in an instant. She was atoms of stardust, floating through space. The universe carelessly breathed life into her, only to discard her a moment later.

She’d be dead for eons longer than she’d ever be alive.

A nebula pulsed into existence, throwing stardust against suddenly visible shapes - a man and a woman. Dense stars outlined them, contouring their forms, giving them color, life. There was an air of intimacy. The two fit together like a tree grown around a forgotten skeleton, her head against his chest. Aya’s mind sparked in recognition.

Finvarra and Sena, someone else's thoughts supplied. She felt her eyes narrow as she watched them, muscles coiled like a jungle predator.

Aya didn’t know when it began, but a slow iciness crept its way through her body. It started as pinpricks in the tips of her fingers, in the pads of her toes and the back curve of her heel. It spread like frost, seeping into her skin, crawling up her wrists and ankles like a reminder.

Finvarra and Sena, a tear between realms.

The nebula spasmed behind Finvarra, blindingly bright. For a moment, the two were gone. Finvarra was unseeable, but Sena -

Wings flashed in her mind. The sleek feathers rippled with color, shining under their own light. A bird flew, too quick to grasp, regal and mythical, vibrant motes of light lingering in its wake.

Finvarra’s eyes didn’t leave Sena’s face as two serpents like golden tattoos curled their way up his arms. They drew him back towards the increasingly frantic nebula. They warred for his attention, serpents and phoenix, both pulling at him in their own way.

The chill snaked its way up her own limbs. It was deeper than physical cold - it slowed her very soul, coaxing, whispering.

Golden snakes pull him away from her.

The nebula grew, writhing, throwing more and more stardust through the air. Just as it had made Finvarra and Sena visible, it seemed to outline their voices, snippets of words carrying over to Aya.

"Two more… Farplane."

For the briefest moment, before the nebula swallowed him whole, Finvarra finally looked away from Sena - to look directly at her.

Aya suddenly realized what the darkness surrounding her truly was: a death shroud. She was already cold and stiff, wrapped in her shroud with gentle hands, and encased in her coffin. All that was left was the steady march towards her grave.

All that was left was to seal her away under the earth.

Aya strode forward with sure steps. Her chin was high. She had a job to do - orders to fulfill.

The iciness had nearly reached her heart, claiming her fully.

Sena watched her, expressionless save for her eyes. They watched Aya with disdain. Unconcerned.

Iridescent embers, the colors of an oil slick on sitting water, erupted around them. There was the sharp call of a falcon, piercing like a dagger.

Sena. A flash of color and a raptor's screech.

Sena was gone. Aya was gone. There was that solid whiteness again, that’d met her with the last envelope. Instinctively she knew she wouldn’t be able to see anything more.

But one fact rang clear and somber as a church bell in her mind.

I've died.

9 am | Danger Room


Listening to nerd girl reveal the two exits, Ronnie made a note of them. It would prove useful if the group had to split up or distract the wolf. She hoped the doors could hold it off, but her confidence in that started to waver. Especially with Heidi’s follow-up observation.

“Have you really looked at that thing? Its face is nearly melted off and it is still ticking. I don’t think we’re supposed to beat it, but avoid it.” Ronnie decided to point out that their current efforts weren’t doing much to beat the creature.

She gritted her teeth as the girl spoke loudly to numbers. Ronnie had managed to slip the chain about the handle and close half of the doors when something came into her peripheral vision. She promptly glanced up then jumped in place. Jasper’s figure stood just within the doorway and continued to focus on the terminator wolf. A soft, subtle growl emitted from Ronnie as she turned back to the padlock. She remembered the combination digits easily, but the order proved to be harder.

Ronnie paused when Heidi asked about her powers.

“Of course you would ask that question.” She snapped.

Her back pressed against the door and held it in place. Ronnie’s expression took on a painful one as she struggled not to choke. Every inner instinct screamed at her to shut up, but she knew lying wouldn’t help the situation. It would be obvious to everyone at some point.

“I’ve only used my powers once and that was before I came here. I haven’t figure out how to activate it, let alone how to control or aim it. So you better have a plan B.” Every word left a sour taste on her tongue after it was voiced.

Daniela was busy pouring the electrical attacks on the mechanical wolf as the rest of the team worked on getting the door open. Her eyes were blazing yellow as she continued throwing blast after blast at it. She was about to ask about the status of how her teammates were handling the situation when she realized it was just her and Jasper outside.

She looked over at Jasper and noticed that the Wolf was still coming after them and it seemed somewhat fixated on her for the moment. Okay, it's pissed. I guess it has the right to be a bit angry after what I did to it.

"Okay Snoopy...I think we got off on the wrong foot. I didn't really want to melt your face but you were chasing us." Daniela held her hands up in a sign of surrender as she inched closer closer to Jasper. "Nice mechanical doggy...Good mechanical doggy...I'm pretty sure we can fix your face. All we need is some electrical tape."

She immediately sprang into action as she pushed Jasper towards the door and tried reaching the relative safety of the inside as well. She was prepared to grab Jasper and pull her along if she had to do so. She fired a last rather intense blast at the wolf.

"Bye Snoopy!"

Oriana Taplin





Location: Ashford Institute.
Interacting/Mention: Cassandra. @KatKook


The last few days have not been anything to shout about for Oriana, she had mostly kept to herself and observed. There had been some interesting moments, only for it to disappoint and fizzle out. She took advantage of the weekend of to look and around and gather as much of the surroundings as possible before all the boring lessons where to come. Why on earth did she promise to give this place a chance.

The evenings back in her room were quiet enough to get away from the weird ass things that seem to be happening, less and less she noticed people talking about the mess of Friday. It was like the drunken idiots had forgotten all about it. Still she had got some information, she was just careful not to be speaking about it from potential prying eyes. Still she saw Ronnie mostly still looking up demons and studying, Oriana would still need to see it to believe it though.

The lessons themselves where pretty much what she expected them to be, boring but necessary. Monday was just that a typical Monday, Tuesday someone filled a class with helium, Majority of the students seemed to blame some blonde girl. If she found out who was truly responsible for making herself sound like a chipmunk was going to get a neck wringing. But all that had brought Ori to this day. Again it seemed pretty mundane, it sucked she missed out on the danger room as just the sound of it excited her and she was at least curious about that place. But at the same time maybe it was the safer option considering the potential she was capable of.

For now, as it is break time between lessons, Oriana was texting her brother. Leaning against the wall round the back of the main building, the texting war was mostly about what had her make a promise to come to such an institute, that things didn’t really impress her enough so far to stay. But her brother always had a knack for getting in the last word, plus he had helped her in so many ways to. Her concentration was taken of the screen though as she backs out the messages and locked up the screen, looking up the day seemed perfectly fine. So why could she sense a strong wind…. Like a tornado? Oriana had since stood upright and backed away from the building a little to look at the structure.

A moment later and a chair smashed out of a class room window and crashed into the ground near to Oriana, she had side stepped it a little just in case as she looked at the remained of the trashed piece of furniture. To say the teen was pissed off would be an understatement as she looked back up from where it originated from, a low growl sounding of in her throat as she suddenly stormed off towards the nearest door. “Out of my way!” Oriana demanded as she shouted at some students blocking the door, she didn’t need to ask them twice. Oriana made her way through the building, running upstairs to the correct floor, shoving her way past other students on her way to the correct floor, coming round the corner it did not take her long to figure out where this particular disturbance originated from.

Oriana was just in time to witness some girl she did not recognise appearing to be laughing to herself and putting her hood up, no doubt the culprit, and one she would have missed if she got here a few moment later, no one seemed to notice she was responsible and Oriana could only tip her head to the side a little as she sighed. Still her features showed she was not a happy chick as she shook her head and walked towards the unknown girl. As they began walking past one another Oriana took a firm grip on the woman’s arm enough to spin her round to face her. “What in the bloody hell do you think you are doing?!”

Oriana took a moment to look over at the classroom before turning back again to the girl in her grasp, she could probably pull herself out of Oriana’s hold, not that she really cared about that. “Really…. A fucking classroom?”

Location:Danger Room





Matt watched as everyone came into the room. Daniela hurt the wolf but it seemed to at least partially repair itself. From what Heidi had said Jasper could do some remote computer stuff. I can only hope whatever she did worked. Heidi is still hard to figure out but she seemed to be observing everything. Then there is the other one who's name I never heard. Heidi asked her something about controlling paper but she replied that she had only done it once. Come to think of it she did look like that girl from the "Paper Tantrum" video on Youtube. Matt doubted that was the original video but it was the one he recalled.
Quickly looking around the room Matt tried the light switches but they seemed to do nothing. He left them on and tried the television sets. Even if they did come on, if there was no signal they might provide a faint glow once the doors were shut. The Exit sign over the left hallway suggested another way into the building. Matt pulled a coffee table over in front of it. "If you cannot stop your enemy, slow them down. Don't know who said it, but it seemed relevant. To be honest if that robot thing comes this way I don't think that will slow it down much, but it will make some noise."
What was that the paper girl almost did? Did she know she was doing it or did the papers react to her without her knowing?

Looking at Ronnie."Actually, I think you almost did something out there. The paper in your notebook ruffled briefly. I don't know if it was from fear or anger but it's a start. Strength can come from recognizing your fear; or something like that, I think that one was Budha. Anyway it seems that this scenario may have been catered to us. You may have to use your ability sooner or later. It's best we work as a team from here on out." Making sure Heidi could see him, Matt went on. "Heidi has at least an idea of our abilities if not more than we realise. She should coordinate unless we plan on continuing blindly." His voice gave no hint of comfort or disparagement. His comments simply were as if fact. Matts face gave one a sense of focused calm.

Matt looked down the right hand hallway eager to be moving on. After that last door, he had no intention of opening the next door.

"And who might you be?"


——————————————————
Ashford Institute

Cassandra continued to walk down the halls watching people come to see and possibly help the situation. Things started flying out the door as soon as it got a little too out of control, even causing the door itself to warp and bend a few times. She kept her head down and made it look like she was going to call for help but she noticed this woman noticing her from a bit more down the hall, she knew it was trouble and if she has trouble, she may as well go all the way. As soon as she was grabbed by the arm, she pivoted and spun around the girl with her arm still on hers using her abilities. She gave that girl a small taste of who she was and why she does not want to have people touch her.

"You want me to do that to the principals office then? Alright, weirdo." Said Jett in her German accent, obviously trying to provoke this girl, this girl had as much as a resting bitch face as Cass did and she knew this was going to be one hell of a conversation. Before she could say something she looked at this girl and thought that maybe this could be who she was looking for. She looked the girl up and down and felt the girl's grip get warmer in her hands and she immediately knew this girl was not it. She pulled the girl's arm away and prompted her to follow if she wanted to keep talking.

"I don't like standing, if you want to talk, walk." Cass stated as she started walking, assuming the girl followed she continued, "Look, I don't know who you are but I know for a fact you're not what I'm looking for, so-" She quickly glanced back towards the direction of the classroom and shook her head, "You know you gotta do something grand to draw something out." And without even realising they were outside, Jett's lifestyle of never not moving has definitely given her quite the advantage.

"So," Her tone moved from condescending to mocking, "To whom do I owe the pleasure?" Asked Jett.

The slightest start of a headache throbbed at the back of her head. The dull pain radiated around to behind her eyes, temporarily blurring her vision. Regardless of the stress she managed to find what she was looking for and memorize the origin location before she was kicked from the system. The coding that had risen on her skin flickered, dimmed, then vanished altogether, leaving the girl looking like little more than the average troublemaker. Her gaze flicked over the situation half a moment later, the electromancer engaged with the mechanical dog inching closer to her. Inside the others rushed about the room, with only her room mate stilled. The girl was likely still thinking.

Jasper liked Heidi because she didn't bother her, thus leaving the technopath to do what it was she did best.

A hand raised to her face, brushed over her cheek and her forehead only to come to rest with the heel against her temple. Fingers curled slightly, one foot moved and she turned to step inside the lobby. Another half turn and she put her back against the wall beside the still-closed door. Daniela wasn't far behind her and she could only assume they busied themselves shutting the door behind them. A moment of disorientation later and Jasper lifted her head to look over at Heidi.

"Third floor. Something else on second."

The least amount of words possible to get the point across, in typical Jasper fashion. Her gaze flicked away from the genius again to move to Mathew and Veronica interacting not too far away from her. There wasn't much to be gleamed from the conversation from what she'd heard so far, but it was the spark of recognition on Mathew's face that she found most amusing. She made a point to scan for mutant incidents at least once a week but she remembered seeing this one within minutes of it going online. It took long enough for someone else to clue in just who this newcomer was - assuming that was what the boy was thinking about.

"Just get really pissed off at the thing that tried to kill you. Should work by the sounds of it."

Should she be antagonizing someone? Probably not. Would that stop her? Not even a little bit.

"I have a plan b," Heidi answered, a tiny bit of panic starting to show on her face. "I have so many plans, but they're all complicated and unformed and I need to pick one." She turned to look at the rest and saw Matt looking at her. He was telling the group that Heidi should be the one to coordinate them! Heidi was starting to sweat now. Her position right now was like one of somebody who never learned to drive being asked to taxi some people in a rocket car just because she happens to own a rocket car. And she'd better not crash. And she can't say no. And she can't take it slow and careful because they're in a hurry. She'd had these powers for just over a month now. She still wasn't entirely used to using them normally, let alone under pressure and with this much responsibility riding on her shoulders. If her plan went wrong, or didn't work, or worked but they lost anyway, she knew that they'd all lay the blame squarely on her shoulders. "You're supposed to be smart!" they'd say.

Heidi cleared her mind. A paranoid spiral was a million times more dangerous when processed at the speed she was processing it. She saw Jasper, now inside the room, tell her that the CPU was on the third floor, and there was 'something else' on the second. Heidi had wandered about this. She had assumed the beast was an entirely closed system with its own CPU but now it was confirmed that it was remote-operated. Which meant that the 'something' on the second floor was probably a signal booster. There were now three very simple ways to defeat it.

The quickest but hardest would be to destroy the signal receiver inside the beast. However, this could easily be located somewhere very hard to get to. Its casing was tough and earthed. The second way would be to take out the booster while the beast was kept on the first floor. This would be the easiest option if the Beast was programmed to behave like a wolf. If it was programmed to protect itself from threats, it would be harder. The final way was to reach the third floor and disable the CPU. But with every floor they went up, there was a greater chance that another threat would be set upon them.

The second plan was the one they should try first. This entire train of thought took less than a second after jasper had conveyed the information. Heidi immediately snapped to action to help Ronnie brace the door, taking the power cable from the back of the television and togging it hard at an angle until it snapped off. She used this cable to help tie the handles of both doors together.

"Quick," she commanded to the rest of the group in as few words as possible. "Jasper and me, second floor. The rest of you, keep the Wolf busy! Retreat upstairs if you can't!" And with that, she headed towards the corridor that Matthew hadn't blocked with a table, scanning rapidly for any sign of a stairwell.

Dr. Sena Yüksel & Uná O’Brian


Smiling Uná nodded once. "Sounds like something my mom would say. Thank you." She looked around the room. "So what did you come here to drop off?"

Sena stepped back over to her bag and opened it slowly, shifting a few items around before retrieving a small case and placing it on the desk. “This is actually Dr. Ashford’s medication… and part of what I’m involved in developing.” She produced a metallic business card with an embossed logo that matched the case. INDIGO with the letter ‘O’ represented by a symbol. Both items were the same color as the namesake of the company while the card simply read, Dr. Sena Yüksel and a phone number. She handed it to Uná and a slight glimmer of neon light passed around the edges as it changed hands between them. “Keep that with you, it might come in handy and feel free to call me.”

Reaching out Uná took the card willingly watching the light glimmer along the edges. She studied the symbol on the card. "That is really cool. This symbol. It means something… I think. Oh I saw this symbol when we studied Egypt… I think it was in reference to their afterlife."

“Think about what we talked about and look into it,” She said with a hint of mystery in her voice and a gentle smirk as she looked back into her bag. “There is one other thing I have here that maybe you can actually help me with.” In her fingertips was a small device, similar looking to a phone or tablet, but dark and blank, clearly without power. She held it out for Uná to take, but kept her grasp briefly before the young girl could accept it and notice it was just marginally heavier than it appeared. There didn’t seem to be any receptacles for a charger, no corporate logos and each surface was the same smooth polished texture leaving no indication of a front or back. “You have some friends whose mutations relate to technology.” She said letting go of the object. “This is for my own, personal research and I need this to be unlocked. Do you think you could do that?”

Eager to please Uná accepted the device as she turned it over in her hands. "Yes. Jasper would love to get her hands on a puzzle. I'll let her have a look at it. Anything in particular you're looking for? Like how it charges or something like that?"

“Let’s just call it a little bit of…” She had to think for a moment and very innocently touched a finger to her lip as she recalled the terran expression, glancing away thoughtfully. “Corporate espionage.” She said with a sly smile. “Nothing that will get you in trouble, but if you do manage to get inside, call me and I’ll be right over.”

Uná's eyebrows shot up as she looked up from the device to Sena. "Then yeah of course. If it helps you; that helps Dean Ashford and the school, on down to helping the others and me. I'll just tell Jasper that my parents sent it and I let it die and can't remember how to find the charger. I'm good at getting people to underestimate my intelligence."

As the students were crowded in the lobby, the beast finally made its charge. Daniela's attacks helped keep it at bay and slow it down, but the beast launched towards the doors just as they were closed. It snarled and made a high pitch whining sound, like a machine out of tune. With the door closed, the room became a bit darker with a lot of its natural light source closed up. The glowing exit sign at the end of one of the hallways became much clearer in the increased darkness. That all being said, other than the lashing of the mechanical beast outside of the front door, another sound became rather clear as the students were discussing their plans. The sound of hard thumping or stomping could be heard above them, each knock separated by a couple seconds of tense silence in the building. Whatever the thumping was, it was seeming to move, rather slow, towards the direction of the glowing red exit sign.
