Attack In the Night
Night settled on the city of Cambridge and the activity level in the city slowly died down as the hours of the night progressed. Midnight came and went and the minutes and hours rolled slowly by. By three am there was almost no activity on the sidewalks and an occasional car rolled down the street.

The quiet of the city night was shattered by a loud explosion at the location of 491 Broadway. The explosion sent brick and mortar in all directions and the concussion blast set off the alarms of nearby cars. Men in yellow uniforms with full yellow helmets on poured out of four nearby transports and rushed into the hole in the side of the building created by the explosion.

The men in yellow weren't the only ones who were interested in getting into the renovated firehouse in Cambridge. Another small team had been sent to retrieve a certain device and schematics for it. That team wasn't going in by the gaping hole created by the explosion.

	"Patience," Spymaster said as she moved quietly down the side of the building. "Fortune has provided us a distraction and we should use it as much as we can. Glitch should have the security system off in a moment and then we go in through a window." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	And this is a good time for the shots to come through the window. Bea aims for the male. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

In theory, Kelly is aiming for the female. In truth, given her choice of armament, since they were nice enough to attack them in their home, where everything was convenient, says more specifically: what she's really aiming for is to send a message.

The heavy machinegun not only pretty much removes anything windowlike, but puts some new holes in the wall - since they were going to need to fix heavy damages anyway, why should the bad guys have all the fun?

	There's a crash marking an entrance and Marcus shoves Spymaster low to get out of the way. "Boss lady down." Looking around a column at the source of gunfire, he can't help but smile. "Well it's about damn time," he agrees and rips something heavy off its mounts, an air conditioner or the like, and chucks it at the fire power. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Theresa ducked to avoid the gunfire and pulled a small device off of her belt. She pulled the pin on the small container and threw it through the hole created by the air conditioner. Smoke started to pour out of the container. Theresa disappeared from sight and moved to the right toward another window. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Kelly might have been able to dodge, but wants to make sure Bea isn't hit, so she just kind of rolls with being hit by an air conditioner.
There's a sickening pop or three as a couple ribs break and her shoulder pops when she hits the wall - and a couple equally sickening pops as things relocate.

"I'll get the musclehead, you take the girl-on-girl action this time." she signals to her sister over their com - better suited for playing cat & mouse with a super-stealther than duking it out with a brick, she figures.

Her machinegun is out of ammo, since she only had time to grab one belt, and possibly damaged in the collision, so she draws two auto-pistols, opening up on Marcus with those instead.

	Bea acknowledges without really acknowledging, long since inured to the horror of what Kelly can make it through. She makes her way into the smoke as well, listening, letting her subconscious work. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Re: Second team espionage_elite 2012-04-22 09:35 pm UTC (link)
	Marcus's job is either to cover the brain bank, or be a big enough threat to keep the locals distracted. Looks like it's the latter right now, no problem. Auto-pistols aren't as bad a caliber as he's had thrown at him and he keeps charging the gunner with the hopes of decking her out as she shoots. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Re: Second team goesbothways 2012-04-22 11:29 pm UTC (link)
	Ok, guns aren't doing much, and she only had a chance to grab so much. Kelly sees the charge, and goes into parkour mode, launching herself away from the guy going over, under and around everything in the way in acrobatic fashion to lead him deeper into the base. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Theresa slipped in another window and landed quietly on her feet. She started to make her way deeper into the building. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Bea doesn't consciously see or hear a think, but the Realizations ping through, and she trusts them and follows in the blackness, deeper into the building. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Damn. Not only is this is one of those nimble fast ones, she's keeping from flat out attacking. Seeing her go through a door, he opts to punch through the wall next to the doorway to either block off her escape or rain debris on her. Can't let her get to something to turn the tide, that's for sure. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

The wall explodes inwards towards her, momentarily blinding her and cutting her off from getting towards her armory. It does, however, give her something of an idea, as she reverses field, diving back through the door she just ran through, since he went through a wall instead of blocking back the way she came.

"Hey Sis, there any other intruders?" she calls over coms, bolting towards the next most likely entry point, in case these two weren't it.

	"I don't -- yeah. Another window's open," Bea whispered into the communicator as the realization hit, trying to still follow. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Martin drops Jack off by Kelly's fight, his telepathic probe told him they were moving fast and leaping everywhere. That seemed like more of a job for the not-spidey than for him. He then appears in a swirl of blue flame beside Bea and gives her a friendly smile. Boss sent us as backup. What're we dealing with for this one? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Re: Second team goesbothways 2012-04-27 05:25 am UTC (link)
	Kelly is still in mid-run, trying to lead the guy towards the other break-in in the process. "Completely axe-crazy." she agrees, on the run. "You look like those things downtown... if I shoot you enough, do you turn into a puddle of goo too?" she asks, never breaking stride or seeming to consider his inclusion in the fight to be at all odd.

	Re: Second team charmedlife 2012-04-27 05:29 am UTC (link)
	Bea will.... let Kelly handle whatever's going on over there. Right now, she's sneaking through the smoke... with Martin in blue flames right next to her. Tracking an intruder. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

The flames quickly die down once the teleport is over but he doesn't seem to realize he may have almost blown her sneak attack.

She's not that far ahead as far as I can tell. What's the plan? I block her from getting wherever or we let her? Oh! I should be sneakier.

It may be a little late for sneaky but the thought hasn't occurred to him as he mouths the incantation for a cloaking spell then seems to disappear although he's still right beside her.

How's this?

	Jack nearly misses a bound as he web-swings down the hall. "What things? ...I wouldn't know." He responds to the puddle question, as he catches sign of the intruder. "Hey... this one's kind of spry. Not as much as me, of course." He launches a web. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Re: Second team goesbothways 2012-04-28 02:28 am UTC (link)
	"Huh, only one way to find out, I guess. You the scientific type?" she asks, glancing back towards the intruder. Almost to the other intrusion point and finding these others who are breaking in. Then time to put her plans into action. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Re: Second team espionage_elite 2012-04-28 10:50 pm UTC (link)
	Enough with this sneaking around in the dark and smoke, it makes following the parkour-girl a pain, but Marcus pulls it off with being decently quiet. This much bulk don't do sneak. He sees the silhouettes of people ahead (two, she's got a pal) and grabs piping off the ceiling, throwing it at the shadows before starting a sprint to charge. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Not especially. More of an Entertainment Weekly than Popular Mechanics sort of guy." Jack responds, as a pipe comes flying at him. He twists in mid-air and shoots another web-line to jerk himself from its path. "Hey! People live here, jerkface! Honestly, the lack of manners on people today..." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Re: Second team magic_hands 2012-04-30 02:16 pm UTC (link)
	Sensing he may have done something wrong or annoyed her, Martin stays quiet and scurries close behind, trying to stay as her invisible shadow. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
