[hr][hr][center][h1][b][i][color=339933]Jade[/color] & [color=cc33ff]Guin[/color][/i][/b][/h1][/center][hr][hr]	No one had come upon Guin in the biology lab. Even though her heart was pounding and she was terrified for her life - a sort of primal fear she hadn't felt in some time, her death wish abandoning her now when the hour was near - Guin forced herself to run out from the biology lab. She went off in a new direction, hoping that she'd run into some of her allies, and not Magneto's goons. She didn't have time to grieve for Mary - or likely Cass. She needed to get this information out of the city, and the best way to do that was to survive this battle - or ensure that someone on their team with better odds than her did. 

	Guin kept on running, until she literally almost ran into Carolina, Lance, Pietro - and [i]Mastermind[/i]. Her skin crawled at the sight of him. He creeped her out and terrified her in a way that most of Magneto's allies didn't. As far as Guin was concerned, he was a twisted, psychopathic, and narcissistic pervert. She tried to punch him from behind or kick him, but neither blow landed. Only on her third attempt did she manage to kick Mastermind and send him stumbling forward. 

	Meanwhile, Jade found herself in the position of watching as Thalia did the heavy lifting. She was glad to have not been burnt to a crisp by Pyro - and was relieved that her mask was intact, allowing her to continue to survive within the city. Jade quietly stepped forward and retrieved her blade, wiping it off on the leg of her pants. [color=339933]"Thank you,"[/color] she told Thalia curtly, noting that she appeared to be somewhat injured, Jade assumed from an overextension of her powers. 

	Jade then moved forward, not seeing anyone in their way. There were a set of doors in the hallway and behind one of them, she could make out the muffled sound of voices, but it was impossible to say what they were saying. The door was too reinforced. She paused for a moment, debating what they could do. She wished Edus had more offensive and violent magic available to him, as she doubted anyone through that door needed to be left alive...
