Aberrant: Children of Quantum Fire - Mountain Rescue - Assault Team [5.2a]

[Quantum Fire]

While the stealth team was prepared to deal with the rescue at hand, the assault team was devoted slightly to a different prospect. Hit them hard, hit them fast and distract them from the rescue that was happening. Arguably, some of the more combat oriented nova's from their small family were here, tough, fast, strong, able to leap tall buildings in a single bound.. or at least destroy them.

The Assault team was to make the initial strike, though they would remain in contact with the Stealth team, and coordinate activities as closely as possible.. one team to fight, the other team to carry out a rescue, though they would fight too if it became necessary.

Prebattle set up. Activating Flight, Hypermovement (Flight), Ms. Nobody, and Enhanced Movement scene length. Triggering Bodyshift.

[envoy] 7:12 am: so, witness a roll for me? it's for QF. Bodyshift.

[Jeremy] 7:13 am: sure

[envoy] 7:14 am: 18 dice, last five mega.

envoy *rolls* 18d10: 8+10+7+1+3+10+1+2+2+8+2+4+1+7+6+4+10+9: 95

[envoy] 7:15 am: I see twelve successes.

[Jeremy] 7:17 am: agreed

[Jeremy] 7:17 am: go wild

Okay, so... Hmmm, spend two successes on Nueral Acceleration, two on Soft Fist, one on Nematacyst, two to get level two Wings, one on Tendril for +2 Lethal, and three on Extra limbs to round it out. That'll do. Quantum Clock: 69...

Coraline hung in the submarine bay, blurring back and forth in place in nervous excitement at what they were about to do, twiddling the fingers of one of the three sets of extra limbs she had sprouted from her torso beneath her natural limbs and the nighthawk's pinions furled high on her back. She was ready for Warren to open the Gate and buzz through a half-heartbeat after Alex reported that the Mother Hunter's electronic eyes were down, go pick off the sniper teams first, fighting off the impulse to fidget at her skin as Darrik's 'gift' played over her skin like grease in her veins. She didn't like the feeling against her natural abilities, not begrudging the need with the lives and minds of parents and children on the line, but finding it yet another distraction.

The young metamorph wasn't even sure what half her new abilities did, how far some of the ones she had had before had changed, why her metamorphic abilities had 'painted' her siblings' bodies as well as her own with the inviatation to change and improve things that were lacking... It was a lot to think about, to do, and she promised herself to grab one of the others, Alex maybe if she needed a break from the sub, to get herself centered again by finding out.

[Maia]

Maia too took to the air, her backless shirt a preparation for her wings emerging from her back. She seemed more unattainable, and smiled to her siblings. "I'm good to go."

Awe inspiring, flight all active. will activate multitasking and quickness as needed.

[Butch_Cole]

On the mental network, Butch said to the group:

We strike when the operation clock hits 0. Everyone knows their part by now and should be ready to go. Keep in communication as needed and watch each other's backs. Let's show these mo'fuckers who their messing with. Hoo-ah!

[Sunstar]

Marina steps towards the submarine bay. Her body gives of the same scent of fresh rain that she always has when she uses her power as it begins to morph. Flesh and skin giving way to water, as Marina transforms into her liquid form and preps herself for the coming battle.

"I'm ready guys." She said over the mental network.

spoiler

Turning on my Bodymorph, Density control (decrease) 2, Invulnerability (kinetic). Used up six Quantum Not sure if I did this right....

[Courier]

Warren waited another far-too-long dragging second. Still nothing. Nothing was good, nothing probably mean that all his siblings were going to survive. If any of them died in the next few minutes he'd go back in time and abort the mission.

If that was the way it worked. If the Temporal Fog he was creating didn't interfere with that. If Max Mercer wasn't a stronger temporal manip. If they didn't run into a TPK... if he died in the battle then he wouldn't be coming back.

Mentally he sighed and decided they were committed. He'd already turned on most powers and created a clone for the other team. He glanced at each sib in turn and dialed up time for each of them. The world slowed down. Light shifted slightly as long waves became shorter. Drops of water took longer to fall. Grossly unfair to the other side but that was the idea.

Warren sent over the family net: I'm Ready. Just sped up time for everyone. Keep in mind that Time Zero is now further away than it used to be.

[SalmonMax]

Alexandra nodded. Her form became silvery as her body abandoned it's human configuration for something a bit more...combatworthy. Thick plating bubbled up from her hide, making her considerably larger and more massive. Complicated apparatus unfolded from her back, including what looked like a pair of rocket engines. Wicked, serrated blades sprang forward over her fists from apertures in her forearms. From her 'helmet' grew several antennae and lenses in a sensor cluster.

And finally, for the piece de resistance, the surface of the armor flickered, changed colors...then quickly adapted to take on the appearance of the background, making her a bit tricky to see even up close in the sub bay.

"I'm ready," Alex's voice came from the mechanical thing she'd become. It looked like it could be a suit of powered armor...but there was no person inside. Rather, she'd simply sculpted her body to look that way. "Don't go rushing in, folks. Right after I pop the jamming, I'm going to open with a saturation cluster munition going off directly over their positions. It should thin out the baseline herd...let us concentrate on the novas."

(Shapechange with 13 successes. Adding 4 dots of Claws, 4 dots of Flight, 1 dot Sizemorph (Grow), 1 dot Density Increase, 1 dot Armor, Bodymod: Chameleon, and 1 dot Strobe (Radio). http://invisiblecast...r/view/3156988/ Also activating the following enhancements for 1 scene: Hyper-Enhanced Hearing, EM Vision, Enhanced Initiative, and Chameleon. Finally, for kicks, activating Second Skin for a nice boost to soak over the armor. Lethal soak is now 36, Q-pool is 66.)

[Quantum Fire]

As the team gathers to make their attack, their planning active and their powers begining to flow, something truely remarkable was about to happen, the children of quantum fire were about to make themselves known, if only in the shadows, but how long would they be able to remain in the shadows? How could tell, the forces involved were quite strong, but they were not without allies of their own, and some of them were already gaining additional allies, sometimes even without trying.

The complex was well placed, but with the team in full awareness of what was here and how to act on it, they were able to take their actions first, though those with a measure of mega-perception could make out a few other things.

OOC: Mega-Perception 5+ with Hyperenhanced Hearing, or Mega-Perception 6+

Able to pick up the subharmonics of the conversations of the last minute or so, the following conversation of relevance was captured by those able to hear it.

"So, Demon will possess the eldest girl, Rose, and start rewriting her mind, until she's fully ours.. right?"

A man responds his voice having a disturbing sound of crackling flames.. "Yes Sir.. it will take about five minutes to do, once I am fully integrated into her mind, but it will be done."

"I don't like this." A different voice spoke up, this one female.

"You don't have to like it, you just have to do it, you signed on for whatever it takes to defend humanity, and this is necessary, without us putting a stop to it, homo sapiens will go the way of cro magnum man in a generation or two.. you just have to stand by and defend Demon if necessary, Mindwave."

"I still don't like it, but I will do it."

[SalmonMax]

Warren opened the warp and Alex ran through. As she did, an oval antennae on her left shoulder erupted into a powerful burst of radio-frequency energy, smothering all channels. Enemy radio communications were consumed in white noise. Radar became useless. Alex came to a stop and a large barrel extended from the top of her armor's back assembly. With a loud 'POOM...ffffffffff..' A projectile was fired from it and rose on a high arc over the arrayed guards and soldiers in front of the base. In midair it exploded like a skyrocket, sending dozens of little rockets raining back down to the ground, covering the ground with a rather precise scattering of submunitions.

An instant later, each of the submunitions exploded violently, sending geysers of snow, rock, and flame reaching into the air as bodies flew this way and that; dimly visible through the thick smoke and dust kicked up.

"Think that got their attention," she muttered.

A large weapon materialized attached to her right arm...sleek and long, and futuristic looking. She aimed this at the smoke, ready to pop whatever came out first.

(14 bashing damage to everyone in the explosive area.)

[Karren Gaunt]

Coraline’s mind went cold with deadly anger at the overheard words, keeping calm only by the miracle of her recent transformation. She blurted the entire sensory impression wholesale through the link, ending it with a terse ‘find her and get him out of her head. Now.’ And then she was gone at over 29 times the speed of sound, homing for one of the injured ones with her flesh whip dripping paralytic toxins even as she pushed her nervous system even faster.

She hit him with her whip in passing, a supersonic angel of death, nearly gutting him and bringing him down with the toxins glistening from her skin.

A second sonic boom and she hit another. A lesser wound, but same toxic effect.

Another boom and a clang as her whip rebounded from one she had missed was made out of metal, prompting a glare from the blurred figure and a quick blitz backwards 45 degrees from the ground to the southeast. A mental snap and she ground to halt midair, gifting all her momentum to the living statue. She blurs off at fourth victim without seeing what her trick accomplished, blurring at… and then through a fourth target.

The young metamorph shook her head and boomed at the last one apparently made of flesh, missing once and hitting twice more to no effect before jinking off and away, having counted coup on five, dropping two and sending a third into the pacific ocean, of the opponents there in less than that many heartbeats.

Dice happened. See Combat Thread. Two down, one sent flying, one ghost, one ping-ping-ping. Dodge of 14, soak 33B/28L, 57B/52L vs eng, Quantum: 67, HLs: full, Willpower: 9 left

[Courier]

Once through the gate, Warren evaluated the situation and his sibs attacks. Darrik's power boost gave him lots of options...

Warren heard and rebroadcast what he'd heard over the family link.

That’s the high Mega-Perc conversation further up.

Four novas were going to be problems. One option stood out. Thanks to Darrik, Cora was now immune to energy and the only friendly in the area.

Silver Surfer like, Warren closed to where Cora was and tried some of Darrik's gifts... trying to feed off his foes and make solid the unsolid... and made an unpleasant discovery about his powers.

Well, crap. I can't use multiple quantum powers... something about the time flow interferes... no. There's a bottle neck somewhere, I can't use powers faster than I could normally. Crap. What do I...?

Sword.

Moving in a blur of speed, Warren tried cutting one of the novas with his Warp sword. If the mother-hunter took damage he'd finish him off, if not Warren would move on to the next nova and try again. And again. And again.

[Quantum Fire]

The attack had done an incredible amount of damage, and the sudden attacks by hyper fast nova's made it clear that this was nothing minor, this was a big attack, a major one, and nova's and baseline's fell before the onslaught like wheat before a scythe.. but lightning fast as it was, and as unpredictable as it was, there was at least a few of the powerful nova's present who could do something about the matter.

In truth, Reaper was with not proteaus, he was actually an amoral self-employed elite for hire who was loyal to his contracts, he had been hired to protect this place as best he could, and he would carry out his mission.. up until now, he'd kept his true appearance cloaked and hidden within illusion and his cloak, now however he threw off the cloak, to allow the full measure of his hideousness to be seen. The horrible undead being with bones fully viable and glowing organs viable was horrifying, the kind of horror that would send not just a child, but a fully grown man running screaming.

Having made a quick assessment of the situation, he moved at lightning speed, something that dead shouldn't be able to move like that, but as frightening as he was, this only made it worse.. there was something eriee, something unearthly about the grace and speed he moved with, as he shifted though the battle ground with a speed that had be seen to be believed.. and his quantum senses aware of the power of his advesaries, he targeted one of the weakest.. or at least one of those who should have been the weakest..

Moving at a speed that had to be seen to be believed, he closed in on, his blows infused with lethal force and attacked Maia.. his fists and feet a blur of speed as he attempted to take her down.. and for those without the ability to see it, it wouldn't be believed. Both of the nova's became blurs as blow after blow was made and dodged.. then at last, Reaper struck her with a powerful blow.. the blow sent her flying several feet to impact the side of the rocky moutain, and sending a minor shockwave out from the point..

The blast of the impact however, was much more then it should have been, as a wave of quantum exploded outward from the girl's form.. for a moment, nothing could be seen as a crack went down the side of the mountain, for about a mile.. a crack that suggested something incredible had just happened.. as the raw force that tore free of Maia's body knocked Reaper back about 30 meters.. and shredded every stitch of the girl's clothing to nothing.. power cascaded out from her form.. and the shout of triumph together with quantum energy flowed though the mental link a moment, as Maia became.. more... and for a moment, the horror that was Reaper, looked horrified himself.

3 successes nessary, due to stress, increadible levels of quantum energy and taking physical harm.. welcome to apotheosis, Maia.

[SalmonMax]

Alex, realizing what was happening, watched as much with her node as with her other enhanced senses. Her sensitivity to quantum had been dramatically enhanced when she'd 'upgraded' her node throughout her body. She could see Maia's rebirth in devastating detail, and each instant was burned into her brain. She'd spend hours later, watching that essential instant when Maia had transitioned over and over again.

But for now, the fight continued.

[Maia]

The wounds inflicted on her, seemingly trivial, still vanished before everyone's eyes. There was no imperfection allowed to mar her Divine Beauty, and her long Flowing hair billowed behind her. Her hands flared with crackling golden energy, She was a blur as she moved toward him, her fists moving at speeds too fast for normal eyes to see. In three blows it was over. Her fist struck him in the right shoulder, sliding through his guard as though it wasn't there, slamming into and through undead bone and flesh, the divine energy destroying the arm as it fell to earth. Her second hit caught him in the ribs from the right, practically tearing him in half, the acrid smell of disintegrating flesh there before everyone. Her final move was a kick, impacting first in his crotch, but traveling through him, destroying heart, spine, lungs and all other remaining torso organs and finally causing his head to explode as her foot exited from the top of his head.

The gore vaporized before it ever touched her, nothing would be allowed to mar her perfection. She looked towards the others, and seemed to vanish as she sought to defend her family from these unknowns as well.

She looked to Ghost and in an eyeblink was there, Her fists moving at near superluminal speed, splitting her in half in a vicious chop, the bits disintegrating without touching her. Without word, or barely a motion, she drove her hand through her hand through Wizard's chest, killing him instantly as he seemed to hesitate for a moment.

That left her alone with Legion, and she turned to him, a scowl on her face.

She moved again, coming in from the left, her foot coming around in a vicious roundhouse kick that separated his head from his torso, by carving through and disintegrating his shoulders and neck. "No one attacks my family while I stand, Know your place."

Through it all, no blood flecked her, everything vaporizing after hit by her, and it was then that everyone truly got a good look at their newly apothesized sister. She looked at them, and then down. "I really wish something would last to maintain my decency..."

What happened next was surreal, her long hair smoothed out over her body, forming what could only be called a bathing suit style garment, but at least the strands of hair stayed in place, giving her back some small cover of her erogenous regions. Still it fit her body like a glove, and she tightened a muscle in her shoulder, watching the hair jump up away from her skin, but return as the power flare passed.

"Okay. I officially like this." It was a little wierd using her hair for clothing, but at this point, if it kept everyone from looking at her, as opposed to the mission at hand, she'd do it.

spending 3 qp for regen, 1 for river fighting..... yeah that just happened. saving 4 actions as needed this round...

[Sunstar]

Marina's liquid form emerges through the gate. She sees Maia's display as she steps towards a pipeline that's visible. She smiles and speaks over the mind link. "Think I'm going to tip this into our favor and provide both a distraction for us, and hindrance for the guys here. " With that her arms wrap around the pipes and the water inside freezes rapidly throughout the complex. Pipes burst, no, shatter throughout the complex as Marina freezes the water, knowing this will throw them in chaos, providing her and her siblings much needed help, as well as providing water for her to freely use to her advantage.

[Karren Gaunt]

There was moment of quiet and then the near-quantum invisible blur that was Coraline circled the battlefield one, two, three times, cracking the air with her speed at the victory in a moment of pure cathartic joy over the anger that blazed through her like cold plasma. The link rippled with it like a summer storm as she spiraled up and up and up into the heavens in a way she hadn't allowed herself to in over ten years, wings snapping wide at the apex of her rise before she let herself fall again to earth, sheding her inhuman features as she did so.

She had alot of time to think as she fell, wrapped in hypertime before a final boom sent her hurtling towards the least injured of the two Motherhunters she had disabled.

The young metamorph landed next to him lightly, a blurred outline of a female figure gazing down at the man. She could really give this man a reason to help them break Proteus. It would be easy, too fast for the others to ever stop her. She wanted to. For the thousands of dead children the paymasters he was protecting had murdered. For the parents hounded and destroyed. For the children in danger the base *right now*. For a ten year old Coraline Boehm who had been forced to run since birth at the sight of a stranger, had listened to her parents' murder even as branches lashed her in her panic flight through that Canadian forest, and then had been chained beneath the earth by the fear she'd bring the Hunters to her new family, too, if she did what she wanted and simply flew under the light of the sun and moon.

Tears formed on her cheeks and shook into dew with her frentic movement, one arm reaching back inbetween seconds and ready to become the organic syringe that would make him a target, too, jabbed into one of his open wounds after one quick gentle caress to collect his DNA.

So easy. So easy and so... wrong-headed and stupidly destructive. It was the wrong choice. She wanted to, and it would make her feel better, but it was wrong. Damn it. 'Two for Darrik to massage if he wants,' she managed calmly over the link, lowering her arm to her side, 'So does the infiltration team need any back up, Butch?'

A couple of hyperfly actions, one released Bodyshift, and one aborted attempt at impregnating the poor bastards she's Stunned.

[Courier]

What happened next was surreal, her long hair smoothed out over her body, forming what could only be called a bathing suit style garment, but at least the strands of hair stayed in place, giving her back some small cover of her erogenous regions. Still it fit her body like a glove, and she tightened a muscle in her shoulder, watching the hair jump up away from her skin, but return as the power flare passed.

"Okay. I officially like this." It was a little wierd using her hair for clothing, but at this point, if it kept everyone from looking at her, as opposed to the mission at hand, she'd do it.

Warren said under his breath, "So do I" trying, and failing, to avoid staring at his sister. Her new 'outfit' was pornographic but somehow worked with the whole 'warrior goddess' thing.

So easy. So easy and so... wrong-headed and stupidly destructive. It was the wrong choice. She wanted to, and it would make her feel better, but it was wrong. Damn it. 'Two for Darrik to massage if he wants,' she managed calmly over the link, lowering her arm to her side, 'So does the infiltration team need any back up, Butch?'

His attention broken away from his distracting sister, Warren looked away, then around and said out-loud, "Two and quite a few baselines."

Four dead advanced novas. Seriously seriously impressive. In lots of ways.

Focus.

Over the link Warren sent a bit doubtfully, "What do we do about the baselines? Open a gate to one of J2's moons?"

[SalmonMax]

"No. They didn't have a chance to see anything," Alex demurred. Inwardly she was fuming, though the anger helped keep her focused with Maia there. That, and mitigate the awe at the sheer offensive power exhibited by the others. She'd have to start completely over on their bingo book entries.

"The problem is that those novas aren't really dead. Fortunately, they've all left, so we can act now without being observed. Lets proceed into the base. Pull your punches down there though. We don't want a collapse before the kids are out."

[Quantum Fire]

As the flow of quantum energies flowed down the link to the stealth team even as Marina froze the pipes within the complex, you all could feel as Butch suddenly shifted, and grew in power, and then the cascade shift flowed down the link back to Marina, and suddenly she too became more, as every pipe in the complex below didn't simply break, they shattered like glass as the water in them crystalized and expanded according to the young nova's will.. even as she did that, all of you felt her grow more, her node growing stronger and more powerful...as her watery form shifted to solid ice, then mist and then back to water again in that instant, and it seemed for a moment that every drop of water within sight shifted a inch closer to her... and physically, while her beauty wasn't as great as Maia's, she had grown more lovely then before in that instant.

Krul *rolls* 5d10: 9+9+10+7+6: 41

Successes needed 4..

Marina also achieves Apotheosis, with M.Appearance 5 being the most obvious change..

which means all presently active players have come into their own.

[Karren Gaunt]

Coraline let the quantum backwash of yet a third Apothesis in under thirty seconds play over her senses, half expecting to pick up a forth pulse as the girl Demon was attempting to mindwipe went up, too, in reaction to all the energies playing about. Serve him right if she did. She had no idea her family was all so... violatile. And so obviously forces to be reckoned with, a sign any who wanted to protect the Baseline order would interpet as a call to arms against her generation. But she'd think about what that meant later. After the children were safe and secure.

'If the rest of you want to go below to help back them up and stretch your muscles,' the young metamorph volunteered over the link with a smile and a looong look upward that fixed on a specific point in the sky, 'I'll keep an eye on our prizes and warn you if anything's coming in response to that satelite someone's turning at us as we speak. Maybe keep Warren with me if he wants to stay. Maybe go knock it out of the sky if you think we should. We have about twelve seconds till it can start taking pictures.'

If Darrik hadn't said he had painted some kind of 'identity shield' on them, Coraline would have sounded more than mildly concerned over the link. She had faith in her family.

E-M Vision boosted look, Quantum pool: 66

[Maia]

Maia nodded to Alex. "I'll do my best. Once we're done and everyone is safe ad we learn all we can, I'm bringing the house down though."

She made her way to the hatch leading downward, and smiled. "let's do what we came to do."

[Courier]

Warren was about to disagree with Alex when he sensed another Apothesis, Butch, and then Maia. He was noting that all of his sisters were amazingly hot when Coraline said time was limited.

12 seconds wasn't a lot of time. There was still a larger issue here... these baselines were mother hunters. See a mother hunter, kill a mother hunter. On the other hand... killing helpless baselines while they were unconscious would be murder. They deserved it, but him doing it would be setting foot on a dark path.

He really should find a different way. A different path.

Oh.

Warren set his mind and then snapped his fingers. Eight more Warrens appeared, all in hypertime. Each moved to gather up any evidence, obscure any clues as to what happened, and gather up all bodies, living or dead.

He sent out over the link, My Red Shirt Army here will play anti-Clue for the site and deal with the baselines. And no, they won't be committing murder. No airless moons. But they will take them to a place where they can't hunt for nova babies. Far more mercy than they deserve but whatever.

I'll stay here and supervise. Some dense fog might be a good thing if we're worried about being seen.

[Courier]

In a blur, the Warrens gathered up or destroyed evidence and created a pile of bodies and misc items. Each of the eight wrote something down on a 'borrowed' notebook. Eerily they each held up what they'd written at the same time and each snorted with amusement with identical mannerisms.

From several yards away, the original commented, "You all wrote the same thing?" All eight said simultaneously, "Exactly." Each tucked the note into one of the living baselines and then each disappeared with four, five, or even six bodies.

Baseline' Letter

Mother Hunter,

You're not on your Earth anymore; this Earth had a different history. I considered taking you to a world with no novas, or perhaps something more 'Mad-Max', but what would I think if someone dumped a group of genocidal baby killers in my backyard? Worse, what crimes would you commit there? The priority is preventing you from committing more atrocities, so this world has no potential victims.

This is the Garden of Eden, you're getting a fresh start. God knows it's more than you deserve. This world missed the Rock that killed the dinosaurs so humanity never evolved. There are no other races for you to sterilize and no children for you to murder for the greater good. It's up to you whether you rebuild the society whose rules you have rejected.

I've left you your gear and weapons. I've also left some basic provisions, given your other crimes I doubt cannibalism will be a problem. There should be fresh water to the East. Watch out for the Velociraptors.

-W

[Karren Gaunt]

Even as Marina seemed to call up a thick fog, the shape-shifted into plainess Coraline silently warned the zipping replicas of her brother away from her two prizes with a look. These two were for Darrik to first break and then be turned over to their... allies to do with as they wished. Valuable resources and killing the helpless sat unwell with the young metamorph, if a bit less unwell than endangering other 2nd Gens further by revealing what her gifts could do to the sterility scheme.

And then she saw the notes her brother held up in a picture-perfect glimpse from the corner of one eye, saw the bodies vanish in a burst of quantum, and turned her speed-blurred features on the original and now only Warren. 'Nasty. But... Just in a way,' she sent along the link to her older sibling.

[Courier]

He'd just spent a lot of quantum, but he was more tired from the weight of his actions both taken and not. Warren sent back, Thank you. They deserve so much worse. It was hard not to dump them on some airless moon. I think it's going to be difficult not to become monsters while doing this. Justice looks a lot like vengeance and we can't afford much mercy.

[Maia]

Maia said nothing, removing the hatch that barred her path. "Come on." with that she head down into the base.

[Sunstar]

Marina follows, Fog surrounding her and expanding throughout the area.

[Butch_Cole]

Over the link, Warren heard/read/knew a message from Butch:

Warren, I need you down here ASAP. Check in with Pip when you get a chance. I think she might be having a Pip-moment.

[SalmonMax]

Alex followed Maia into the base; the heavy footfalls of her armored form making resounding clomps as she went.

[Quantum Fire]

Heavy fog filled the air around what had been the surface of the base, of which there was very little left, even as the satellite turned it's view fully toward the mountain, there was nothing to see, the entire assault team had gone underground to join the stealth team, and complete the rescue.
