HQ, the Iron[/b][/color][/h3][/center][hr][color=84B4E2][b][i]Tree Cover - Niah and Celestine -[/i][/b][/color] [color=FFB795]"Bloody fucking hell it's freezing!"[/color] Amelia exclaimed, her teeth chattering. She held a hand in front of her eyes to keep herself from being blinded by the lights of the plane Celestine had brought down. Unfortunately for duo, the plane had [i]also[/i] brought a small legion of friends - seven other planes were approaching, three of them landing to cut off their escape options. The only place they could run to was over the cliff. [color=FFB795]"Uh, any chance you can control all of these, mate? Or Oliver, you're coming back... right?"[/color] Amelia said tentatively. "WE HAVE YOU SURROUNDED, PUT YOUR HANDS BEHIND YOUR HEAD AND GET DOWN ON YOUR KNEES OR WE WILL TERMINATE YOU!" a voice boomed from the speaker system of one of the planes. Amelia took a hesitant step backwards. If they could just stall for time, then Oliver could come and grab them - or Celestine would have a chance to take over the planes. Amelia took another step. And another. And then, she moved her left foot back, expecting to feel solid purchase - only for her foot to meet air. She lost her balance and her eyes widened. [color=FFB795]"Shit..."[/color] she whispered, before falling over the edge, plummeting rapidly through the air. [color=84B4E2][b][i]Outside Interrogation Room B9 - Sparky, Cass, Amelia, Oliver, Bonnie -[/i][/b][/color] "Oof, friendly fire? That's rough, buddy," Darcy said sympathetically to Sparky. "Maybe you all should be more careful with your bullets, just saying." Bonnie's eyes narrowed slightly as Sparky pushed her away, insisting that she was fine. [color=f6989d]"You have a child depending on you coming back alive in one piece, so shut up, and let me save your life,"[/color] Bonnie told Sparky sharply. Usually her bedside manner was better than that, but her patience felt very thin. Sparky was on the brink of death and insisting on being left alone, as if just bleeding out was an acceptable option at the moment. Oliver re-appeared, asking Amelia if she wanted to help steal a plane, and then the two of them vanished. A few beats later, Oliver showed up with a medical kit. [color=f6989d]"I'll take that, thank you,"[/color] Bonnie said, grabbing the medical kit and opening it up. She arched an eyebrow - it wasn't what she was expecting. There were glowing red vials with [i]EXTREMIS[/i] written on them, in addition to what looked like a gun and some standard medical supplies. Bonnie studied the contents of the container, before picking up the gun. It wasn't a gun at all - it looked like it contained some sort of serum. [i]IN CASE OF EMERGENCY[/i] was written on the side of the gun. Bonnie hesitated for a moment, before taking a leap of faith. They didn't have the proper surgical equipment for Sparky anyways. She took the gun and aimed it at Sparky, pulling the trigger. A needle shot out and hit Sparky in the upper left forearm, injecting its serum. Miraculously, Sparky's wound would then begin to heal rapidly, the blood clotting together, the skin knitting back together, until it was entirely healed. "Did you know that would work?" Darcy asked Bonnie. [color=84B4E2][b][i]Interrogation Room Z11 - Matt, Maria, Raynor, Flynn -[/i][/b][/color] Folly's eyes snapped open and she took a sharp breath of oxygen, as she stood back up to her feet. "That was fucking rude," she complained. She hadn't had a chance to reply to what Flynn had said before Maria had more or less attempted to kill her, and with more SWORD agents beginning to swarm the area, she didn't have a chance for a lengthy conversation about Raynor's love life. [color=d86615]"We're going to get overrun, anyone have any ideas?"[/color] Raynor asked, deciding to ignore Maria's momentary lapse in sanity - maybe her wife was finally rubbing off on her or it was due to lack of sleep from the baby, whatever it was, Raynor decided he wasn't going to worry about it at the moment. Someone else could worry about it. Right now he was sending blasts upon blasts of light out into the hallway, knocking down a good portion of the agents, but more of them were coming. They couldn't stay in the small room they were in forever. Folly darted out into the hallway, slashing throats and whatnot while cartwheeling to avoid bullets that were flying. She really hated it when bullets were brought into play - they took more of a toll on her healing factor than the typical Iron repulsor blasts did. Raynor then got an idea. There was a chance it was incredibly stupid, but they were running out of options. He stopped firing light blasts off into the hallway and instead retreated back inside the room, picking the opposite wall... and just firing off blasts at it. The wall was stupidly durable, the blasts hardly doing anything to it. But after a while, Raynor managed to wear it down, creating a gigantic hole in the wall, large enough for them to move through. It led to another hallway, not outside, but it was at least something.
