"I could make a bright flash, but that would only disrupt them if they were looking at me, and even then, we wouldn't know where they are. Plus, you two would also be affected."

As Mina continued to search the area, she felt something off, so she backtracked with her beam, before realised what it was; There was a puddle of oil that had disappeared, and oil doesn't dry that fast. Also, this was not a real building site. It was merely a training ground. There would have been nothing brought in here that could cause a puddle of oil. That was somebody's quirk! She was about to alert the others that the enemy was right below them when a voice from below gave a warning that he was going to collapse the whole building unless they left. Well...guess she didn't need to tell her teammates that there were people below, though the thought that it might only be one student never crossed her mind.

"...Alright, new plan!" Mina shouted. "Forget sticking together, we need to head below and find these guys fast! Make as much noise as you can when you find somebody, and the other two will come to you. Got it? Good!"

And with that brief order, Mina ran to where she saw the puddle of oil and sure enough, there was a tiny hole. Mina shone a light at it with just her index finger, and then, concentrating, focused the light into a single point, and pumped more and more light into that one tiny pinhead until the light turned red and was starting to burn through the floor. Mina had turned her light into a laser.

When she had finished cutting a circle, the floor fell through, leaving a hole which Mina jumped down, though not before checking that the drop wasn't too big. She landed with a roll to cushion the fall, leaving the boys above with considerably less light to see as she crawled down the subterranean pipes alone, searching for the plot to sink the building.

Heidi strapped in to the Blackbird, thinking about what she had heard Caleb tell Shawn. Essentially immortal? What did that mean, and how did his mutation make that possible? Plus, did that mean that he'd die before me, his wife? Wait, why was she thinking that? Get a grip, Heidi! It's mission time!

She meeped adorably when Shawn sat next to her, and then preceded to ask what she'd learned about the future. Heidi had gone bright red. "Well," she answered, "I know that I help invent Time Travel, and that in the future I'm also not socially awkward, and I'm married. And apparently I make really good X-Men uniforms. Anything beyond that's just conjecture."

Once the three Alpha Team members had been dropped off, and the truck sped away to point C, Mina lit up the dark building, using her hand like a torch. She looked around, but couldn't see or hear any sign of anybody on the ground floor. Four possibilities. The enemies were either above them, below them, weren't here yet (which she discounted), or had stealth quirks.

"Lysander, Jin, keep your eyes open. Wherever the other team are, they're using stealth, and planning to take us by surprise. We don't know their quirks. They could be on this floor, or the could be on a different floor. I say we stick together and make them come to us. Splitting up would just make us targets to be picked off. I'll make sure that they have no shadows to hide behind."

Making her body glow well enough that the immediate area was visible, then projecting a flashlight-like beam from her hand, she constantly watched their surroundings. After a minute or two, she grew restless, and hummed the tune to Bohemian Rhapsody to herself. Damn, that song was stuck in her head now!
I'll probably just be lurking until the ship takes off

"Awright, Cap," Taleste sighed. Until she knew, she expected not to have R&R time, but hoped for the best. "Lat me know if we get more info. I'm uff until then. See you whan it's go time, everywhun!"

And with that, Taleste left the group of people, several of them getting visibly annoyed by the thief and her stupid alien accent, and went back to her room, though when she got there, she didn't feel like sitting around. She was bored! She wanted to do something! Talk to someone! Taleste hated this part of life the most; the travelling between jobs. Even prison's more fun than this! They have open spaces, and hundreds of people who don't distrust you, and compulsory workouts. Whereas space travel...you'd better pack an e-book.

There was a knock on the cockpit door. "'Ey, Horrorshow! It's Tal! Want some company? I know I do!"

Closest thing she has to a best friend right now.
Alpha's basically ready but the people who might want to double check and round it off are offline right now
I don't really know what to add here

"True, it would have been less painful and embarrassing. But I have come to know that you can't experience the sweetness of joy with out knowing the bitterness of pain. Also, for a chance to get to know you... I would go through alot more pain."

That was....actually sweet..? Maybe this boy did have some actual charm after all. Though she didn't show any signs of warmth, her body language got a bit less cold. She could see him searching back into his memory, find the memory of him shouting, and straighten up. That was an amusing process to watch. "No that was not I... with my quirk, I do not need to yell or speak to use it. I try not to use is as much as I can, so I don't have to rely on my powers alone to fight."

"I agree," Mina started, "If a hero is so dependant on their quirk that they couldn't make any difference if it was taken away, are they even a hero? Well, in my case I have to fight without relying on my quirk, seeing as how my quirk is..." To finish the sentence, she raised her hand to waist level, palm up, and made it glow with light.

At that point, Mina looked up as a blue haired boy had just started a very loud pep speech, also addressing himself as the main character. Ugh. She knew one boy in this class who she'd be avoiding. A red haired boy also gave a speech, though slightly less loud and more controlled. He was a maybe. Another girl joined in with the words "Let's Pass!" Not that, Mina thought, was a simple, achievable goal that everybody could get behind. Of the three, the tall blonde girl was Mina's current favourite speech.

The six winged boy gave it a try too, even flexing his wings and posing. Last place. Definitely last place. "Then you got this guy," her conversation partner said. "I don't even know where to begin with him." Mina nodded in agreement, turning her back towards Acion. "Well, he speaks like he's acting in a Greek Tragedy, he poses and he has six wings which probably means he can fly."

At that point, the teacher came out, expained that this would be a capture-the-base style game with two teams. She looked at the team listings. The red haired 'Mr. Maybe' was on their team, as was the tall blonde girl, and...

"Huh. Looks like we'll be on the same team, Haven."
