Owner Pose
Ivana Baiul Ivana Baiul had been busy. Even with some of her facilities smashed up, she had finished her programming of several of the captured Gen Actives. Her base, dug in an old Weapon Plus facility off in an abandoned training barracks used by the US Army an later repurposed, was going along at full speed. Curretnly deep in the base Ivana was tapping on a control console, hummign happily in all her freakish cybernetic glory, "It's time to light the fires, it's time tos tart the fights. IT's time to get things slaughtered.."
    What she had spent decades working for was finally at hand.
    up above the base along the surface, variuos trucks were going back and forth to the barracks. Soldiers, terrorists, technicians were jogging back and forth as armored trucks and other vehicles were driving rapidly, taking personnel and eqiument in, other things out. Things were busy and distracted. Those who had been given some heads up had plenty of room to sneak in and out.
Leon O'Malley A few days earlier, the Wolf Spider stopped one of the smaller snatch and grabs as basic patrol work. A few minutes of interrogation by an eldritch horror from beyond the stars, and the pair knew all they needed for an entry plan. Slipping in at one of the less guarded sections, the symbiote remolds itself to make Leon look like standard goon, complete with gear that'd pass a visual inspection.
Cole Cash In his defense, Cole first choice was not coming here alone. He made a token effort to contact Quiet. He did some inquires on Halo. And he even poked Lynch for backup. He had no luck. Busy people, conflicting plans, requests to wait.

No waiting. Ivana is about to move and Cole wants to finish what he started. He is a target, so he has chosen to pick the time and the battlefield. He has brought some heavy artillery, including his energy guns, several kinds of grenades and three extra spare firearms. No such thing as too much firepower.

Now he is just waiting for an opening, or nightfall. Whatever comes first.
Tabitha Smith How the hell does a former street rat from New York find an allegedly secret base designed to captuue and experiment on super powerd teenagers for making living weapons of mass destruction? Three ways, one. She's met enough titans now to kinda not get hung up on when she calls and asks. "Hey, that cute First Nations girl the Cheshire catboy and the green dude reescued with that dude with the veil she doesn't know the name of? What's up with alkl that." and scored a rund down.

The other is having enough friends and family adopted and loved as they are having been through similar traumas and they know folks who know folks and you get word back.

Hence how Tabby with her third method, with a little extra poking among her own homeless contacts because when kids get snatched they kind of tend to bunker down in the dumpsters and share info, managed to arrive close to the site.

She even geared up for all that sneaking and breaking in with darker colors. Mostly an X-Suit in predominantly black with yellow at the chest and shoulders. And the boots. Blonbde hairn lefting in a haphazard pony tail and glasses in red rayban style with red lenses light her way.

Amazingly enough after ditching her van far enough back to hide it she walks and sneaks trhe res of the way in a red jacket full of inside pockets and handy things. "It's time to save the kids! On the Meltdown Show tonight!" she's singing to herself.

And if need be she left a note on the school principal's door. "Gone Resuin' If I'm not back my dinner send Logan to pick me up here." with a ball park sort of directions.
Ivana Baiul It's been at least simple for the group to, in their various ways get over into position. At least, likely without letting one another know. There are plenty of openings. Ivana is having to do some rushing to make sure things stay on schedule and is trying to get her test subjects ou tand into the field or for whomever has paid her for them. Trucks come and go, hauling out things and hauling in things. Her payoff is here and now she's getting her new toys in and out. It's hard to keep track of things.. So simple.
    Leon is there pretty casually, going along with several cyborg troopers that might almost pass as Reavers if not for their professionalism and casual chatter with one anotehr. They're stopping off in the truck and jogging to head inside as a large tarp covered truck zooms out of the garage, heading to parts uknown.
    Cole has several openings if he wants to try and dart in alogn with them. Some idling cars, some mooks having a smoke break to the side, or just the old 'sneak underneath a vehicle and drive along' routine of things.
    Tabitha is able to sneak on in fairly enough. There's lots of things moving. There are a trio of guards going past her. Muttering about delays, lack of signins.. And just hoping they get paid on time. The sun is sinking in the air, and twilight is upon the area.

    Deep underground Ivana finishes a transmission, "They're on their way. Your new associates will be there shortly." As the channel goes off.
Leon O'Malley Taking the scope of the op in, Leon makes a few mental notes before eyeing the path of tighter security and making the excuse that he needs to use the little terrorist's room to break off. His own military background making navigating the old army section a breeze as he fabricates an ID that'll stand up to bored guards, and some banter to keep them distracted from the guy they don't recognize wanting further access. A little 'hows the family?' here, a little shop talk there, a little 'boy I sure hate Daredevil' to ice the cake, the usual.
Cole Cash Cole is almost offender by the sloppy security. It is as if Ivan didn't expect or feared Team 7 anymore. Who knows? Maybe she has managed to keep them most of them busy. Well, she failed to deal with one, and that is one too many.

Cole sneaks in through a bit of sabotage and sneaking. Accidents happen when there is too much traffic, right? They distract guards and make goons look the other way. He also plants a couple explosives in the way in, to make sure he has an easy way out. Not like last time.
Tabitha Smith Tabitha Smith probably runs the chance that maybe even as she sneaks about that if she does get spotted she's young and pretty enough by most Gen Active girl standards that she maybe might look like one of the captivce kids being let out and on the powl herself.

At least that's what Tabitha is totally telling herself. Dashing from spot to spot and staying low and out of light of sight and any cameras that she can spot but they couylkd just be everywhere and they get smnallere and smallere and harder for a girl with already bad eyesight to find.

Why would she even bother? Meldown hates seeing kids get abused. And who is to say the crazy Cyborg Lady in charge doesn't decide mutants are easier to get hold of. There's a whole school of them being released into the wild as Sumnmner kicks in. Gotta keep her fam safe! Not the worst thing she snuck out of the house for.
Megan Gwynn Megan Gwynn had heard murmurings here and there of this place - perhaps due to her connections with the Outsiders, who knows? Whatever the case, here she is, dressed in black leather Xmen stealth attire, skulking as best as she can behind a large vehicle as she searches for a sneaky way in..Of course she could port but did she bring backup? She's already tapping her x com, trying to see who else is in the area..<<Pixie reporting, anyone copy? Think I've found the base where those gen actives are being held..>>
Ivana Baiul Going in ahead there's tighter security. But there's too much going in and out for everything to be airtight. So Leon is able to fake it over as he goes inside through the garage. Jogging on in he's passing by a man with half his face melted away with his arms crossed that has a glowing eye and grinning sadistically that's casually lifting his arms and making several of the trucks float back and forth as equipment goes in and out of them as they drive back and forth. Leon is not noticed at all amongst everyone coming and going. Matthew Callahan, aka THRESSHOLD.
    Ivana might think everyone from Team 7 is accounted for. Everyone is dead, doesn't care, or is too afraid of her. Security is decent. But nowhere near on par the level it takes to stop someone dedicated and dangerous. Accidents happen. Cole is not noticed by Thresshold either. But he might get the impression, perhaps if not of someone that doesn't quite look like they 'fit' going in deeper, perhaps.
    Tabitha is able to get on in of her own virtue. There's plenty of security, but the fact she's going the stealth route when there are so many things that make establishing sensors and guards up lets her go on far so long as she's sneaky and doesn't make noise. Anyone that might look her way in turn misses her or writes her off. Pixie may or may not have planned ahead with Tabitha, but she's also able to sneak on in so long as he's not glowing pink..
Leon O'Malley Leon sizes up the big melty man from his 360 view, cringing slightly after focusing on his face. Once past and into the more secure area, planning happens, and the incognito pair find a less busy guard to question for the holding cells, telling him that the boss wants a headcount and he hasn't memorized the layout yet.
Cole Cash Cole gives Mr. Glowy Eye a wide berth. He actually has no beef with brainwashed kids. Maybe once he kills Ivana they will find something more productive to do that random terrorism. If they not, that is SHIELD's problem, mostly.

Ivana is personal. And sadly, he has to stab some random mook to get his passcard. But there are so many one is not going to get missed, right? At least not for a few minutes.
Tabitha Smith Tabby did leave her comms running on the off hand chance someone did pick up and see the note. If Megan saw it or not but it's welcome. "Pixie? Sweetie it's Boomie. Meldown this time around." she respond quietly with a cheery voice.

<<Bad people, standard Wolverine Style Knockoff living weapon lab. Captive kids inside may be used against us. Some X-Men ish powers.>> she gives a quick rundown to her parallel conspireator in very very hushed tones to try and not draw attention while hiding behind as much stuff as possible in all her clandestine don't look at the blonde in tight clothes and spashes of color efforts as she loooks for the route to the labs and holding cells.

There's also a brief set of directions for Megan to follow and a description of where she is in case Pixie wants to skip a few steps in the directions. <<These guys will hit hard if we're snagged, extra careful!>> she warns in whispers.
Megan Gwynn Megan Gwynn narrows her eyes, laying low, blending in a bit better wuth the black streaks in her hair at least. She crouches low behind a vehicle, pressing her com to her ear as Tabby answers. "Boomboom? Where are you? I'll co,e find you..Who else is here?" se speaks quietly, not wanting to attract attention. With any luck they will mistake her for a gen active too..
Ivana Baiul THRESSHOLD doesn't notice the people that don't fit in going past. And the group of stealthy ones are able to sneak past them. Going their way on inside they pass a series of kids that, if they've looked at files, are definitely some of the missing Gen-Actives. There's three, casually talking amongst themselves. One has glowing hands over that give off traces of radioactivity, another has spikes growing out of his body at every angle, and the third,a girl, has black hair that's lashing about over like Medusa's tentacles that's all barbed up.
    The girl speaks, "Can't wait to go ou tand kill things. I'm bored."
    Given that the group had been only missing for two months at most a terrifying indicator that Ivana's methhods were working.
    As Leon makes his way over to a guard, the guard, with a clipboard, would sigh, "Typical." He would give some rough directions. "I don't have time for this.."
    Meltdown and Pixie are able to sneak past as well effectively.
Leon O'Malley Leon stays all smiles as the guy gives the rundown, offering a two finger'd salute off the brow, "Thanks." He says as he turns on heel and jogs off towards the cells, "Neither do we..." The pair mutter in demonic overlay as Leon glances at the brainwashed kids getting ready for the march...
Cole Cash Cole has managed to avoid a couple checkpoints with his false card and some fast talking, but that is not going to last long. Already some people is talking nervously and they might have found one of his explosives.

So, yeah, he pulls out a cellphone and clicks some number, detonating three of the c4 packs he left outside. Blowing up a big hole in the outer fence, making a truck explode, and also a wall, but at the other side of the building. Then he hurries up, looking for the command center as the proverbial hornet nest goes nuts.
Tabitha Smith All that extra tactical training the New Mutants jumped on as younger kids paid off. Some schools have some really weird extra curriculars but when the possibility that beiing on the wrong end of a place like this you wanna kinda not be so you take the yelling at no matter how shitty you feel.

There's some wait for Pixie to catch up so they can go proper X-Men style. But it shouldn't be too long.

When everyone catches up in the same area and there's explosions going off, the blonde looks to her friend and then what seems to be other heroes she looks a little worried.

"Dude, what the shit? We have a teleporter! You could asked if we had ideas when you saw us!" she says in frantic but shushed volumes.

Finding cell doors and restrains she slips a little tool kit out of her pocket and opens it up to start picking locks and restraints to get kids free.

For extra security she even lets her own bombs form in solid bowling ball sized orbs of bright hefty plasma waiting to pop in any oncoming faces a sort distance away from hurting our heroes.

There's some directions and a location of Tabby's van offered to the winged fae mutant. "Target destination is there. Once the kids are out of here we follow and I level the whole place in one go." she calls out in totally an ass pull of a plan. Sort of she had texted Illyana but Megan turning up is absolutely just as good for her plan.
Megan Gwynn Megan Gwynn follows closely by Tabby once she locates her, using a little fairy dust here and there to mislead any guards who might try to get in her way. And it seems there are others here who might or might not be here to help rescue the kids..At least one of them is familiar and she catches the eye of Cole briefly, giving him a slow nod as she waits for Tabby to unlock the doors.

"Sure, blow up the place. Sounds like your spiel. Just tell me when and where and I'll port the good guys to safety.." but she frowns as she catches snippets of the kids' conversation. "Wow, that's some brainwashing though..I wish we had a telepath with us. It may take some convincing get talk em into coming with us.." of course faerie dust works well if need be too.
Ivana Baiul There are explosions all over the place. Which now has lots of swearing as alarms blare. Guards and technicians are running back and forth. Vehicles are revving and racing away. One thing at a time as things detonate. Whatever the trucks are taking away is probably equipment which can hopefully be dealt with later. The group is after kids and saving them or killing Ivana.

Tabitha goes to slip her way over into a room where she finds a punk girl with pink streaked hair wearing a leather jacket, "You have a smoke! You have a fucking smoke!?" She's swearing. "I haven't had a fucking smoke in hours and I would ##!*'ing kill for one!" Meet Roxy Spaulding, aka FREEFALL.
    In the cell with her is a big guy wiht a huge skull and winged tatoo on his chest, "Whoo! Hot stuff there! Sexy gal!" He would wolf whistle at her despite beign in a glowing cell which was suppressing (thankfully only gen-active) powers. Percival Chang, aka GRUNGE.
    There's swearing from the trio of Gen-Actives, the one with the glowing radioactive fists would hiss, "You just HAD to say it." As the girl with the lashing out hair-tacles would grin, "Makes it more fun!" Leon is near the brainwashed kids and not noticed as they seem to be running towards the melee and the sounds of the breaking into the cells.
    Cole has a clear run towards the command center.. And Ivana.
    Appearing over right next to Cole dropping dwon smoothly from the ventilation shafts is an old man, face covered in scars and an eyepatch. Of course fucking JOHN LYNCH would be there too.
Leon O'Malley As things start exploding, Leon breaks into a sprint, sliding past a sprawled goon and grabbing his rifle, scrambling back to his feet in a mad armed dash from the cells, desperately hoping nobody notices the gun he previously had seems to have just disappeared, "I'll uh, handle the prisoners! You guys, go, uh, guard the boss! Yeah, that..." Performing under pressure is hard.
Cole Cash Cole was just typing passcodes into his cellphone. No reason to suspect he is blowing up anyone, right? Only when he starts running he could be suspected... except most everyone is also running. He almost stumbles on Pixie, though, who he also remembers.

RUN. He vocalizes to her, avoiding the fae girl to delve deeper into the base. And then Lynch happens. "I just can't believe they keep building fucking ventilator shafts big enough for people!" He yells the other man, snarling. "It is as if they consulted spies and assassins about how to build bunkers the wrong way... wait, they asked you, didn't they?" He is joking. Mostly. No. They probably asked Lynch.
Tabitha Smith Meldown, cause this is pretty serious business had recognised Threshgold on the way in and having seen what he can do and the fact there are other psionics around has her mentally trying to hide in the crowd.

If anyone reads her mind. Tabby is totally all thinking <<Murder murder murder. Shampoo. Murder murder murder.>> The gen 13 kids get a grin and Tabitha suddenly feells instant kinship with them. Wonder why. "I got a blunt in my glove box. But we can pick up a pack. Gonna need a shit load a slushees and sugar like mad after this balls up! I'm Meltdown, the delightly and winged lass with the adorable Welsh accent is Pixie. the other guys I dunno but they're a little short to be Stormtroopers." she exposits as she steps up the speed of her work from door to restraint and so on till folks are unlocked.

Her roof racks can only hold so many torture benches.
5rAs hostile forces close in, the blonde starts drifting herf bombs down hallways one at a time before exploding with enough force to start knocking chunks out of walls and making a less thgan fun time for anbyone with normal human squishyness.

Leon's offer to take over and Tabby nods. "If you can work faster. By all means." she says and gestures to the lock in progress as she steps back and packs her tools haphazardly in a pocket while another bomb flies down the hall way.

"Hopefully I parked in minimum safe distance!" she ponders and cracks her kuckles ready to actuaally fight.
Megan Gwynn Megan Gwynn shudders. Great, she wasn't expecting that explosion to be quite so close. "Heey, careful, don't injure the prisoners.." and she starts off into the unlocked door, following Tabby, "Hey guys! We're here to rescue you! Less talk, more action, come on, get in close to me so I can port you all to safety.." well that's the plan, let's hope they're gonna behave..She has a bad feeling about this though. "Hurry now, they're blowing this place up!"
Ivana Baiul JOHN LYNCH would grin wtih Cole, "Hydra actually. They wanted tomake sure when they took over the government there were peltny of ways for them to get easily in and out of military and intelligence facilities. Too arrogant to think it would ever be used against them." Accurate or not or the man was just snarking. "Come on, Ivana's lead us this far we might as well join her on her merry way." The two having quick access to the command center if Cole took them that way.

The guards run as Leon says; he's telling them to DO SOMETHING and they're more than happy to listen to someone in charge!

FREEFALL scrambles at Meltodwn, "Give it to me now or I'll $##!'ing grab it off you." The girl's eyes wide and totally desperate. Priorities, priorities.

GRUNGE meanwhile gets up, "You're hot." Hand going out to totally despite the circumstances look at Meltdown in a wholly inappropriate way and let outa wolf whistle.

Tabitha throwing off explosions left and right.

Meanwhile going to jog in towards the group is a woman with long purple hair tied up in bows dressed in something like a cheerleader would have.

"Hey boys and girls. I heard there was some fun going on." Detonations going off around her. "So please, let me get in the way."> Even as Nicole Callahan, aka BLISS would raise up her hands and to anyone that might remotely be suseptible to telepathy or emotional manipulation in the area be given a brutal seizure, a spasm of wholly agonizing pain to the point of if not stopped or they were vulnerable collapse!
Leon O'Malley Leon whips around through the doorway and right into two superheroes mid-rescue. While dressed entirely as a kidnapping terrorist. Luckily, Tabitha apparently isn't paying anymore attention than the guards were, "Oh, good. Was starting to think we-I, couldn't do this by uh...myself...You finish up that, I'll cover the door." He says as he takes a defensive position to overwatch, brow furrowing slightly as the actual guards run off, "...I can't believe that worked."
Cole Cash "You are full of shit," grunts Cole to Lynch, pulling off one of the VAP energy guns. "Also, I think there is a couple amateurs trying to help the kidnapped. I am leery of detonating more explosives, so what contingencies do you... damnit!" One of the guards turns around the corner, and raises a gun.

Cole blows him up. Literally. The VAP shoot punches a hole the size of a basketball ball across the upper torso and neck. There is a lot of blood and computer component flying. "More cyborgs. Makes me wonder why she needs super kids."
Rachel Goldman AT the same time Bliss shows up practically, another pair of figures just walk out of the wall at the other end of the hall. One is a tall blonde with her hair up in a bun with two needles holding it in place, a three piece rod at her belt, and a high tech pistol in her right hand. Her left is holding the hand of a younger girl with red hair who looks a bit dazed but sharpens as she sees the fight, her whole attitude taking on a different feel as she purrs. "Pretty explosions...." Sublime scowls and raises the weapon, taking aim at Boom Boom as the one throwing around most of the explosions. "Her again.." She snaps off several shots in a Boom Boomerly direction!
Tabitha Smith Tabby remembers that feel inside her brain. What it did last time was not fun for her. On the other hand Tabitha pings on the psionic radar herself as a pyrokinetic though while she's not a telepath. She's had some training from telepaths  you can easilycall the GOAT and when you know a psychic attack is coming you can kinda prepare for it.

There's a spike of anger and range but unlike the beserk response Tabby's anger gets cold and all those bombs she hand lying in wait.

They all fly to meet Bliss. At the same time. Explosion after explosion going off in the pigtailed purple haired girls face and center mass with BOOM after room filling BOOM.

Smaller ones are made and just sent at the remaining locks. Stealth went out the window the second she felt the touch on her brain. Little booms as the last restraints arev off and Gen 13 is freed. "Glove box honey. Don't bogart the whole thing! It's medicinal!" she states and nods to Pixie. "Damn right I am!" she adds for Grunge before looking to the arribving leon and almost blowing him up because a guard not shooting you on sight can be misleading and Tabitha still looks confused. "Pixie, if we leave this guy behind I'm probably gonna not lose sleep!" she says with a grin. Sure she could be talking about Grunge or anyone else. and just starts sending more and more bombs down the hall towards Bliss in increasingly larger sizs and quantities.

In an enclosed space the explosions can focus and they bring added debris and shrapnel. Heavy, pointy and sometimes molten stuff. Not to mention all that loose wiring left swinging and dangling.

Of course now someone returns fire and Tabby eeks and ducks behind cover herself. "It's that goddamn Shadowcat knock off. We're on the clock Pixie!" she yells out and growls and keeps on trying to cave the whole hallway outside their area down. Maybe it'll catch Sublime mid phase. Probably not. Tabby is not that lucky.
Ivana Baiul BLISS has also run into Tabitha a time or two. So as thee xplosions go off she's likewise hitting the deck. This avoids the worst of them even as the hallway is partially collapsed over as BLISS is just sprawling flat as the corridor is essentially melting, in a state of partial collapse. She's not mauled but likewise can't keep up her attack.

FREEFALL is mostly focused on grabbing the thing off Tabitha even as the explosions go off, lighting it and taking in a desperate puff, "Thank #$*#!'ing jesus I would have killed.." Girl has some skewed priorities right there. GRUNGE, meanwhile, goes to put his hand over to the wall and goes to metallicize up, body taking on the reinforced metal and ceramic qualities of the area. "Noice." HE would quip over at her.

Cole casually shoots his way through guards along with LYNCH right as the two burst into the command center where Ivana is finishing a call. "You again? I should have upped the bounty." Spoken over to Grifter as he would go in. "And dammit why can't you STAY dead!" A hiss would be given to Lynch as Ivana's body would start to glow along the outside of it. Portable force field.
Leon O'Malley Leon's aim is thrown off as the explosions go off. Luckily, there's not really anything in need of shooting at the moment. As the kids suit up, as it were, he glances back to them, "This all of you? Ready to get out of here?"
Cole Cash Another couple cyborg guards get obliterated, and then the door to Ivana's control room. Unfortunately, it wasn't very subtle, so Cole is not surprised Ivana is there waiting for them.

"You were always too cheap," he replies to the woman. "Forcefields, uh?" He shoots at the woman, and if the field holds, he shots down and up, trying to force her to fall or bring the ceiling down on her head. "Do you have anything to counter the tech, Lynch? Or did you come here just to watch me doing all the hard work?"
Rachel Goldman     Sublime reflexively throws up an arm to shield her eyes as Copycat shrieks, covering her head with her free arm...before the ceiling just collapses on both of them. Success!

    Momentarily, anyway, as a few seconds after the fall stops Sublime and Copycat emerge through the rubble, the pistol still raised and both looking pretty unhurt. Her eyes flick to where Boom Boom is under cover and Leon and the escaping captives at the other end of the hall, with the open door beyond, then to Bliss where she's lying on the floor starting to push herself up.

    The pistol wavers for a moment, then her aim sharpens as her arm raises and she empties the clip in a flurry of energy blasts...

    All of which strike the light above where Bliss is lying, the heavy fixture breaking free of the ceiling as it plummets to smash into Bliss's head. It probably didn't kill her. But she's definitely not getting up for a bit.

    Sublime lets the pistol hang from her forefinger by the trigger guard then drops it, her hand going to her three piece rod at her side, but not drawing it as she watches Boom Boom, before moving fowrard to walk around Bliss, then pausing to give the unconscious young woman a good kick in the ribs.

    "Fucking psycho." she spits, then looks up again, her eyes meeting Boom Boom and Leon's as she looks between them.
    "Fuck Threshold, fuck his bitchy sister, the other psychos in here, and most especially, fuck Ivana Baiul with a goddamn rotor rooter." She watches the pair. "We're leaving. You got a problem with that?" she says challengingly as she squeezes Gem's hand. Gem looks a bit confused but seems to be following Sublime's lead at the moment as the taller woman takes out her ear piece and drops it to the floor, then does the same to Copycat's before crushing both under her boot.
Tabitha Smith Pixie hunkers behind cover as well and starts working her portal spell to start doing the whole extraction thing. Which Tabitha is eternally grateful forsince going back out the way they came is probably nbot advisable with the constant bombs of increasing force and the environmental hazards it creates inside an enclosed area. Renovations would cost a fortune by now.

Every so often Tabby's gonna peek out from cover to see ahead and get an image on how and where to send the next bombs. Though shge does smirk at Mondo, sorry Grunge. "You might wanna start jumping outta here bud. Check those walls in tha halls. This is not small arms." she states and gestures to Pixie also waving and calling the Gen active kids to haul their fit backsides out to safety. Hide behind the van! I'll unlock it when I'm through. I'll be last out. You do not wanna be here when I leave!" she points out as she pumps out another bomb when blue eyes meet Sublimes and her three part staff and her friend. The bomb is pulsed bigger and brighter than the last few yet as a taunt even someone that phases through matter needs to see where she's going.

What's happening in the cells if probably still getting piped through to the manager's office via the few remaining cameras. Where Ivana, Lynch and Cole are having their inverse Karen talk. The blonde throwing bombs probably might even get recognised by the older Spymaster. And the explosion she let rip averting a Snark hunt in metropolis.

"Better take your pretty friend too! I'm bringing the house down!" she yells and just keeps on charging that bomb.
Ivana Baiul BLISS is hitting the ground and going to get up, stunned from the explosions but out of the immediate blast of fire. She can only hear the sounds of laser bursts goign over her head right as COPYCAT and SUBLIME come to back her u p.. Then she realizes they're going up and over her head right as the debris falls, burying her over in it. A hand sticks out of the debris, struggling.. And some screams of pain come from it. She's not dead. Or crippled. But she's not getting free without someone putting in a lot of work at pulling her out. And by her screams she's not taking being suddenly flattened and immobilized well either. Then it stops, and she's unconscious.
    Grifter and LYNCH face off against Ivana even as Ivana goes to lash out at the two with her own energy blasts! LYNCH ducks to the side, "I do. Give me some cover!" He's ducking and weaving with far more agility than a man his age and scars should have, and being ever so smug about it. He moves to hurl a small sphere down over at Ivana's feet which isn't noticed.. Right as Ivana goes to switch it up and over to lash up and over at Lynch with her neurowhip! Catching him over the torso and dropping him to the ground, Lynch spasming in pain from hte lash. "FUcking BITCHSHIT shut up finally." Ivana would crow with success.. Right as the explosion goes off! Some sort of electric field zapping her! Her body might be hardened against EMP's.. But her force field isn't as it drops!
    Rachel and Tabitha have seemingly come to an understanding in things. As Tabitha is getting ready to bring down the mountain and eveyrone left inside the bunker! In the distance, there are yells as every single vehicle out front is racing away as the kids in cells are evacuated through the protal to safety by Pixie! And Meltdown is readyign to make sure that it's never going to be used to hurt anyone ever again!
Leon O'Malley Upon seeing Rachel, Leon sights her down with the rifle, grimacing a bit as the safety clicks off...And then Rachel is downing bad guys with appropriate levels of force. With the only real threats either down or turncoating, he tosses the rifle and breaks for the portal, helping to usher everyone in until all the kids are safe.
Cole Cash Cole dives for cover when Ivana shots back, but returns fire quickly enough. Not only because Lynch asked him to! And he is not even a little sorry when the other man gets nailed by a neurowhip. He probably deserved it.

And then Ivana's forcefield goes off. "Oops? I hope you had the warranty signed and all shit," chirps Cole, pulling a second energy handgun and shooting a double burst of particle blasts at the cyborged woman.
Rachel Goldman     Watching that growing bomb warily, Sublime doesn't question it, going into a jog as she sidesteps around Bliss's prone buried form and makes for the door out, pulling Copycat along with her. She definite does not give the metaphorical two pieces of excrement about her downed teammate from the look of it. As if dropping the light fixture and part of the ceiling on her didn't give it away.
Tabitha Smith "Hey, you wanna live. You grab purple girl and portal out. You ain't outrunning this!" Tabby yells to the two girls still upright. "Think you can walk through all this shit on your head?" she swirls her head around to just the destruction she's caused in the immediate area.

The Bomb already nearing her height in diameter. The girl's eyes even starting to glow a bright blue. And there is a very wicked grin on Meltdown's lips as she just keeps on charging. The crackling of bio-electricity visible. "Hey you!" she yells to Leon as Rachel nopes out in potentially the wrong direction. "Grab the pigtailed nut job. She don't deserve this shit maybe someone can help her!" she states loudly. "We got rope in the van and Pixie can keep her sedated. Sort of. Go go go! This thing is gonna get finicky on time as it gets bigger!"
Ivana Baiul Lynch probably deserves it. Or at the very least for Grifter it's possibly cathartic aftera ll the BS this has been and being strung along for it and generally manipulated. The shots from Cole strike Ivana in the upper body, sending her stumbling away and twitching in agony, "AUGH!" Chunks of her shot off, cybernetic torso melting from the particle shots as they go through bit by bit. All the while the base is stumbling, shaking, and blasting from the explosions. Sirens are going off as it's in the midst of starting to collapse from Tabitha's detonations!

The bomb is getting bigger and bigger. It's everyone for themselves now as anyone up above is fleeing and driving off. Any other members of DV8 that are not truly insane are taking the time while Ivana is otherwise occupied to book it on their own. Pixie is teleporting away everyone in the holding cells as sirens wail.

Rachel has possibly been waiting for something convenient like this for years. HEr suffering has been immense. Her torture has been unfathomable. Now.. Now is the opportunity that she has no doubt been waiting years for. It's time to end one nightmare.
Leon O'Malley Leon cocks a confused brow, quickly scanning for who Tab could be talking about before finally settling on the rubble, "Oh...Crap." He says aloud before sprinting over to Bliss. The rubble should be far more than could reasonably be dug through, but he effortlessly tosses enough off to pull the crazy out without leaving half of her behind, tossing her over his shoulders in a fireman's carry and sprinting back to the runaway tube, "See you on the other side!" He shouts as he runs headlong through it.
Cole Cash Unfortunately Cole has no way to knowing Tabby is building a giant bomb. It is not the first time he gets bombed, but man, just as he has Ivana in the fights and pretty much beaten.

"I shouldn't gloat, but man..." he aims a gun at the evil ex-spy head. "Some people really need to die. And you are one of them, bitch. Hey, Lynch, wake up... you are missing the best part."

Well, no. The best part is Meltdown's giant bomb. And no one is going to miss it.
Rachel Goldman     Sublime pauses, the blonde girl looking at Tabby, eyes narrowing slightly, then back at the portal. "..." She rolls her eyes at the order to save Bliss given to Leon, but doesn't prevent it from happening. "Don't let her touch you." she warns. "Not skin to skin. She'll fuck you up."

    Then, having considered her options....of which there aren't many....she opts for not being blown up or hit by pieces of the building when it blows up and heads for the purple portal of exiting, following Leon and Bliss through and pulling Copycat along with her.
Tabitha Smith People she likes or has at least conscious pity for are out. That leaves Sublime and Copycat with a choice or directions. Head out the long way and see how ong she can stay phased under the whole collapsing base or take the short cut. Leon took care of Bliss.

And Rachel does similar for Copycat. The cells leaving just Tabitha behind as she finishes charging a bomb that is at least twice her height in diameter and is left to float and occupy space. "Just like the Dominator base!" she states with a very very giddy look that could give any of the brainwashed girls a run for their psychic money.

There';s brief double check for guards who aren'tr paid enough for this shit. "Last call, all aboard the Pixie express!" she yells before she backpedal runs and jumps through the portal to land on dirt outside on her back with middle fingers extended through bone side to the other. "Close it up Pixie sweetie! It's gonna be loud and oh so god damn good!"

Thge spell is released and when Tabby picks herself up and looks to tghe group she just has a very very satisfied look.

"Splode!"

The Boom even in the base can be heard for miles. The ground rumbling as well as the blue glow turned puple by red lenses fades and it is not safe at all to remain in the premesis they just vacated.

Evil base for sale cheap. Renovate or Detonate!
Ivana Baiul Lynch is groggily going to get up, "I think of all things, Cole, as much as I would like to do the honors.. You've earned this particular one." The man goes to stand up and brushed himself off, even as ivana is on the ground and in pain.

The prisoners are jumping over through the portal as is anyone else in the area as anyone who can't move on their own is carried out the otehr end. To safety. To treatment. Or just to go to ground once more.

Everything goes white as the base is exploding. There's shockwaves, explosions, and eveyrthing is vanishing over in one massive fireball as the super charged bomb goes off! Ivana takes the moment where she's got half a second to hit an emergency teelport to take her away! The last of the vehicles are driving off that aren't being taken in underneath the explosion and undermining of it!
Cole Cash Cole was shooting when the explosion goes off. Which means he was fine a moment and seeing all white the next. And all black a second later. Also kind of buried under debris. There might be broken bones. There are a few choice curses too.

"Lynch!" He yells, trying to pull free. Little known fact: Lynch was about the only member of Team 7 that had a good grasp of his psychic powers. They come handy when one is buried under an exploded base. And Cole can boost him. If he is alive. Otherwise... he will dig himself out. Eventually.
Ivana Baiul In the aftermath, all are gone. The members of DV8 have scattered far and wide without Ivana around to torture them into further obedience. The rescued Gen-Actives have also gone about to their own lives, to training, or back to hiding. To Tabitha and Megan, there is a sense of having accopmlished something heroic. For Grifter, a sense of revenge accopmlished against someone that deserved to die. Even if perhaps she is not. And at least a decent sum deposited into his bank account.

Of John Lynch in those hours of aftermath, there is no sign. Of Ivana's equiment and research, there is no sign. Of Ivana.. There is no body.

One battle does not make the war won. But for now.. This conflict is over. For now.

Only for now.
