Location: Pacific Point, California[/center]
[hr]
The mutant of the future looked at the two heroes as they responded with what they had been doing prior to his arrival. He had been worn down by the battle for Pacific Point that he didn’t hide the fact it wasn’t the answer that he was hoping for. Still, it was at least something that could be done while everyone was on the ground and not in the air. He kept an eye on his surroundings, looking out for any hostile forces. He had noted the fact that one of them had nocked an arrow onto their bow and fired it into the air, a signal for backup.

[color=4682b4]”Back up is always a good thing, I guess,”[/color] The Wanderer commented, his eyes keeping a focus on the newly-arrived warship. [color=4682b4]”It’ll at least give us more voices on how to deal with the warship.”[/color]

It didn’t take long before a few figures instantly appeared in front of him. While their appearance was sudden, it didn’t faze him at all seeing as he was capable of teleporting himself.

What he wasn’t expecting, though, was a mention of an deity of ancient history. He did recall during the days prior to this invasion when tracking down where the bounty on the heroes’ heads, he was catching up on the history books Voyager had shown him back in the library. He did come across a pantheon of Greek gods that were referred to as Olympians.

When he was mentioned about the possibility of not seeing this ‘immortal god’, The Wanderer looked at the new arrivals. While his normal eye could only see the three heroes that had arrived, his psionic eye gave an inkling of a fourth that was present with them. While his normal vision is unable to see through the illusion that the being had put up, his psionic eye can see all. His eyes focused on the invisible being that was there.

[color=4682b4]”Might not be able to see them directly, I am aware of their presence,”[/color] he replied, keying them in on that tidbit amount of information.

There was more talking amongst the group of people that the mutant was with before one turned to him about the current situation.

[color=4682b4]”Well… from what I can gather of the past few hours, I assume that they were the ones that created the wave that could have destroyed this city before the invasion. Things could have also been worse if I hadn’t had shot out the beam at the initial attack.”[/color] Hopefully, that small amount of information would clue them in on his involvements so far with the barrier and the giant beam prior to the smaller ships attacking.

[color=4682b4]”As for the current insights, I have no idea. If I had to guess…”[/color]

He paused for a moment, trying to figure out what information would be useful for now. His knowledge only worked for the wastes of the future, not for the current timeline he was on. Yet, there were some things that were common between the two.

[color=4682b4]”… I would take it that the current warship in the sky is not the main ship that whoever is leading this force.

“If we were to stop this invasion from where it is at, we’ll need to take the fight to them. Always worked with me with the raiding mutants in my timeline. So… an option would be to try going from the defensive way of thinking we are in now and take the fight to them. And we seem to have a way to bring that fight to whoever is in charge.”[/color]

He indicated to the warship that had just arrived. But of course, he knew in his mind that there was a glaring issue to what he was proposing.

[color=4682b4]”Only problem: we’re down here and where we need to be is up there. My only thoughts of getting up there aren’t here, with Voyager not currently with us to be able to fly us to the ship. I’m still a bit drained from putting up the barrier and firing the initial beam to even think about phasing us up there without taking me out of the fight. So… Does anyone have any suggestions?”[/color] His eyes looked at the group, in particular the invisible deity with them.
