Finn let out a sigh of relief when Martin came in. Thank goodness creepy lady didn't try anything on him.
"Good to know you're safe. Also I guess Mikael is going to be our leader." Finn says shrugging. Finn heard someone.
"I'll go check it." Finn walked and saw it was that one kid, Noah. Weird he wasn't with his squad.
"Hey, Noah. How are you doing?" He says to him.

Noah smiled, oh it's uh... one of the other peopelf rom the other squads! No idea what she's doing here, but at least she's doing good it seemed!
"Good! But I'm lost." His tone was chipper.
He's holding a plastic bag of what seemed to be a pack of cola and chips. It was probably warm what with the lack of condensation on the bottles by this point.

Ultimate Hope, Absolute Insanity
Iridium Wonders – Street Outside Hardware Store.
Wonder Dante needed that distraction. Good job, Sally.
Dante tried to a stunt that would possibly be dangerous to the villain, and maybe himself.
While the villain was distracted, Dante took his opportunity to sneak past him, by going behind the fire twisted, going past it by making a big jump, then slowly sneaking towards him and then, hit his neck area with a karate chop, to incapacitate him...hopefully that will work.

Squad 2 - Street
Ever sighed. Well, now Aster was in on the fray so no acid. Working in a team was tiring and limited so many options. Now she can't put out the fire with acid or any of her other liquids, Aster would rust. Instead, she would be forced to take drastic measures. She opened the door to one of the shops and spoke to the civilians inside. "Hey, can you guys pass me the fire extinguisher? Yeah, that one. Thanks. Don't worry, Aster will pay to get it replaced. She's the metal girl. No, that's Sally. The other metal one. Yeah." She hoisted her prize over to the fire tornado and sprayed the flames with foam. Argue everything you can argue. Doubt everything you believe. Ask every question you have. Argue, doubt and ask. Through this we learn.
Stop Killing My Titles
Dawn, Squad 4
A man whose despair outweighed his virtue? A bold-faced liar who continued to deceive her even now? Someone who never cared for the sanctity of the cloth he once wore? It hardly mattered right now. Dawn tried her hardest not to think about it - but it was a difficult ordeal. "...do you know the tale of Job? He whose life was ripped apart at God's behest, to test his mettle and faith? No mere pretenders, children holding powers they did not understand. 'twas His majesty, through the holy accusator that took away all from him."
"Not once did he curse against Him. You should have killed me when you first could and be done with the poison that addles your brain." Her knuckles burned with holy fire. "But now that you threw in your lot with Gaea and seek to cause damage much more untold compared to what my wretched hands did, to engulf this world in fires of hatred, all for your personal vengeance... that is unforgivable."
Slowly, she assumed a fighting stance. "Come, man of soiled cloth. Let us settle this once and for all." Perry threw the first punch already, but Dawn hoped that, at the very least, the Gaea agent would focus on her. Conversely, she hoped that her teammates would let her carry this cross on her own - it seemed to be her fault entirely that they were in this mess to begin with.

Squad 4 - Library - Iona (Now with extra spirit!)
Iona looked slightly surprised to simply be pushed aside by the very friend she was trying to protect, but the conviction in Dawn's words that were to follow ...Iona nodded silently, turning to the angels that Perry had sent the horde of animal ghosts at, holding her illuminated hand in the air. As words came out of her mouth, they boomed, commanding and forceful.
"May my voice now pierce the Veil between this plane and the other! Let my words reach you, o one who has contracted with me! I call upon you, you who have granted me your boon, to come stand by my side and lend me your aid! Hear my summons now, o mighty Gigas!"
The ground began to rumble terribly, an almost oppressive force in the air.
"Spirit of Earth! Exemplar of Strength! You who crush armies beneath your heel, and walk through fletched storms that turn day to night! Come forth now, mighty golem! Come forth, Gigas!"
An earthen, almost bronze arm erupted out of the ground, spraying dirt and pebbles everywhere. It pushed, and slowly a chiseled, humanoid being rose out from the ground, towering over even Dawn, with muscles that could put even some of the strongest people to shame.
The luminous lines running along Iona began to fade, and her left eye closes. When they are finally gone, the entire left side of Iona's face and her left arm look...sickly and dead, her upper body hanging limply to that side as if all the strength and life had been sucked out of it. She pointed at the angels with her right hand.
"Now, Foecrusher, attack them!"
The giant picked up a titanic chunk of rock, sending it hurtling towards the angels, rushing into the fray behind it.

Iridium Wonders - Outside Hardware Store
Mahvash cocked her head at the mage. Interesting. He neutralized a blast that Sally had set to stun. Clap. Clap. And then her favorite cyborg went all in when she spotted his vortex failing. And seizing the moment. I love watching this!
Briefly sporting an all too proud grin, Mahvash gave Sally a quick, two-finger salute before lifting off. She brushed across the foam spray, giving Ever an apologetic shrug. "The suds make me feel better." And I can lend a helping hand.
She sprouted ornate moth wings after coming to a hover well in the air. Yes, the most notable thing should not be the little bugger in a twister, but the Wonders keeping things in hand. And to that end... Aster and Dante charging in meant mass oxygen destruction was an even worse idea than it normally would be in the middle of town. So, she did it on a small scale, making 'bubbles' of vacuum around isolated flames to suffocate them out keep them from spreading.
While she seemed to ignore Swirly himself, her hand had hitched a ride across the vortex in Ever's spray... At first opportunity it jetted out, carefully finding space around the others, to claw into the man's body and extend tendrils over his face and under his skin, the tiniest tips of unmaking power to dig through obstacles, like clothes and armor. She'd go under the skin... pierce, pull, and chew at the soft muscles underneath. And... when you move I'll drag you back.

Ryuu cursed as the attack failed, but could see how the attack failed. He could look at Sally, but he had to get moving once again.
As the others started their new shot, the wind around him started moving strangely, as his body vanished from sight, as his scales started to show.
This is a terrible idea He thought Let's go
And jumped into the vortex, with an arm drawn back, ready to punch someone in the face.
"EAT THIS" He said as he entered.

Library - Felicity "Fluffy" Shepherd
"'The child shall not suffer for the sins of the father,'" Felicity mused quietly, not to Jacob or to Dawn or to anyone in particular but herself. Everyone had already said their piece and it was doubtful their teacher would be willing to listen anymore than her teammates would be to disavow Dawn. All that was left was to stop him and push past.
Holograms don't tire, they can only be pushed back. But hopefully that'll give us enough of an opening...
The icy walls that surrounded the group shifted once more, pooling in the ground in front of them... before turning into fog which Fluffy pushed forward with her winds, providing the group cover and hopefully disrupting the projections with its heavy dispersal of light.
With the wind covering her speech from Jacob, Felicity said, "Dawn, don't hurt him too bad, okay? Just try to restrain him; I have an idea. Alex, you know that trick you just pulled? Think you can use it to pull a hermit crab out of his shell?"
Stop Killing My Titles
Dawn, Squad 4 - Execute Plan Part 1
"I'll see what I can do." Perhaps waiting for him to come wouldn't do. With Perry and Iona providing fire support, she lunged forward with a punch aimed to shatter his midsection - only to stop it and deliver a kick to the legs, meant to knock him off his feet.
grah
Alex, Squad 4
"Out of his shell?" Alex questioned Fluffy. "Ah, I get what you mean. I don't know, but... it's worth a try."
In a seemingly boneheaded move, Alex charged head first into the armored foe and grabbed them. Then they spllit in their male and female clones. Just as soon as they did that, they tried remerging. The idea was that since Alex brought whatever their clone was carrying with them during a merge, that perhaps they could use this ability to seperate their foe from its armor. Alex didn't have high hopes that their powers worked like that, but it was better than nothing.
Squad Three-Infirmary
Martin frowned as another student entered the infirmary, but after a quick glance he was able to quickly determine that if they had seen a fight they hadn't been injured. But a single villain attacking a small squad of students didn't make sense. If whatever that was had wanted to get to Ash she could have done so at any time outside of the one place in the city there was always going to be at least one full squad of heroes active.
But if there was some greater plan it didn't seem to be going well. No emergency sounds over the intercoms, no lockdown. Nothing. And that was worrying. "Hello, I don't think we met earlier. Are you in our class?"

Outside Library
As Alex tackled Jacob, they tried splitting and reforming as asked. Not that it had the desired effect. Much to their dismay, Jacob and the armor were still together. Unfortunately for both Alex and Dawn, they were about to learn a lesson in being properly coordinated. Just as Alex reformed, Dawn launched her swift kick at Jacob's legs only to threaten to knock Alex down in the process, which would cause Jacob to land on top of her if nothing was done.
As for the holograms, they weren't having an easier time of it. Perry's pets weren't capable of giving them the plague, but they were able to keep them busy while Iona's golem chucked a rock at them, crushing and disrupting several. As for Fluffy's fog, while it wasn't as effective, it was much father reaching. It couldn't stop the holograms, but it did slow them down as they tried to rush foward, forcing them to fly towards them at a snail's pace.

Where am I? What's going on?
Squad 3 - Rebecca - Nurse's Office
After being momentarily distracted by Noah's appearance, Rebecca moved to add her hand to the pile. Which is when she finally noticed the tattered state of Ash's costume. That wasn't great, and what with her loss of sensation, she wasn't sure if the pyro herself had even noticed.
Becca was midway through taking off her own shirt to give to Ash when she realized the fallacy in that action. Literally anyone else here could give her a shirt that wasn't filthy and wouldn't leave Rebecca standing around with just a bra. Except Mikael. She wasn't sure Mikael owned a shirt.
"Hey, Finn, Van, Martin! Could one of you give Ash your shirt? Her costume's in pretty bad shape."
Squad 2 - Iris - Outside Hardware Store
As her squadmates attacked and thinned out the firenado, Iris waited for the flying saucer Mahvash had given her to go high enough up that she could see down into the heart of the offending vortex.
Once she had a clear view of the old man floating in the center, she fired, her icy blue freeze vision forming a line of light between her and her opponent. After all, how better to fight a fire user than with cold?

"Sure. Anything to help." Finn took off his jacket and then his red shirt. He went over and handed it to Rebecca. He realized that the rest of his squad saw his topless torso. He was good looking and of healthy weight but, he was rather average in build compared to the rest of the guys. He covered his chest with his arms.
"Okay, no laughing. I know I am not as yoked as the rest of you but, I'll get there one day." Regardless, being embarrassed was fine as long as he was helping. He put on his jacket so he wouldn't be too topless. He then also put his hand in the middle as well.

Noah watches as the group did a handpile and were even iwlling to give each other shirts with at first confusion, but then his eyes widened when he figured they were just that close to each other maybe.
Maybe one day he could be that close to other people...
He then noticed Finn was lacking in a shirt, he didn't think much about him to be honest, except that he might be cold without one unless he zipped up.
Noah thoughta bit, he was also one of those jacket wearing boys, so he could probably spare one.

LOVE IS STORED IN THE AXOLOTL!
AKA Nixer
Nurse's Office – Squad 3
Martin's recording warranted a rather unladylike snort of laughter from the pyrokinetic as she smirked up at him appreciatively. It was nice to know he was more than a goody-two-shoes and had a sense of humour like that. Even though he was clearly embarrassed by it.
“Nice one, man. I'm telling you she #$&%ing deserved it. Screwing with our heads like that... hope she rots...”
Her voice wavered slightly at that last part with what seemed to be uncertainty, but she soon shook it off and regained her composure with an accompanying shrug. “But yeah. I gotta um... expand your vocabulary. Or limit it. Depends on how you look at it. So don't worry, my student. The worst has yet to #$&%ing come.”
The grin she wore wasn't one that promised anything good, but it (thankfully) fell away once Rebecca made a valid point about her attire.
“Oh... yeah, that's a thing...” she muttered tiredly, glancing down at her tattered costume and inwardly sighing with relief that nothing too offensive had been exposed. The vantablack suit was riddled with clear, microscopic slashes, but it was holding itself together by threads. Barring the odd segments that had flat-out been sliced off. Which were still enough for her to hop up and nonchalantly snatch the offered shirt out of Finn's grasp before it could even reach her roommate's hands.
Only for her to nearly fall over at the sudden movement, but a tight grip on Rebecca's shoulder managed to catch her. She soon hauled herself back up into a stance of (relative) balance—shaking the shock off and mentally noting to take it slow from then on—before glancing at Finn with a hint of incredulity.
“Dude, you're fine. Only reason I'm jacked to s*** is because my old man wouldn't let up in training my ass off. Literally. Or it sure felt like it, I mean. Sparring offer's always on though, man—if that kinda s*** worries you that much. Still ain't holding back though. I may like you guys now but that really don't mean s*** when you got #$&%ing Israeli combat training under your belt. That s*** ain't for kids.”
Which begs the question of why Dad taught me the #$&%ing thing in the first place.
“Anyway, chill. You'll get there. Now do me a favour and give a girl some privacy. Actually, no—#$&% it. I'll do it myself.”
Her patience evidently thinning to the point where she couldn't wait even the second or two it would take them to turn around, Ash promptly straightened herself and abruptly expunged a thick cloud of fog from her pores; the mass concentrating around her and condensing into a makeshift screen so as to spare them all from a smoky demise. Even a silhouette was hard to see due to the layering of the substance that was her namesake. Plus she was obviously rushing judging by the clattering and sounds of repeated falling over on her part.
It was odd to not hear any grunts of pain accompanying each slip. But then again, this was Ash. It wasn't like she was usually audible in her pain unless it was somehow offensive to her. Like somebody punching her on the arm. Or inducing her into flaying her own skin from her body and ripping her pain system apart. Just as a random example.
“I swear to god if any of you bastards have been hiding x-ray vision 'til now I'll #$&%ing strangle you... oi! Got my eye on you, new guy! You ain't gonna be outta hot water just 'cause you made me laugh!”
The smoke siphoned back into her skin shortly after she made her idle threat, but the glint in her eye that became more apparent as the fog cleared displayed that she had cheered at least somewhat now to something resembling her old self. Not shivering to death in tattered remains of a skintight costume with very little insulation probably helped too.
“So... that aside...” she began, flopping back down into her previous seating position next to Rebecca and actually managing not to fall over backwards this time, “...there a reason everything's so #$&%ing quiet? You'd think an intruder would've at least raised a #$&%ing ‘hey who dat’ from the security guys, right? What gives?”

Breath of the Sun
Squad 3 - Infirmary - Mikael
As it became readily apparent that they weren't doing the hand pile thing, Mikael merely sighed, lowering his hand.
"Hell with it." He grumbled.
Rebecca then pointed out that Ash's costume was in tatters, after her skin tore itself into ribbons. She was actually quite attractive, Mikael realized, though he averted his gaze nonetheless - having just come to an understanding with Ash, he didn't want to ruin it.
"You could have just borrowed my coat, Ash." He said, slightly bemused at Finn's shirtless state. "Probably better than leaving one of our squadmates half-naked."
Then the implications of her question hit. Mikael shrugged. "I'd assumed that said bitch was skilled at infiltration. Or, you know, she just walked on campus. I doubt the faculty here have memorized the faces of everyone who attends the school, and with powers you can't really tell how old some people are, so it's not as though her age would have been a problem."

Finn was a little bummed they weren't going to do the group hands but, oh well. It was nice of Mikael's and Noah's offers but, Finn shook his head.
"Thanks for your concern but, I should be fine. Besides I still have my jacket so..." Finn zipped up his jacket. "So there we go! But, thanks again for the offers. You guys are both cool for that. Also, when you are feeling better, I will totally take you up on the sparring. I want to be tougher and also increase my endurance since I have been having problems with that. Be the toughest I can be!" Finn said fist pumping a bit.

Squad 2
Darkheart was starting to grow impatient. He was spending too long toying with these fools. Of course, even with the show of force he had already displayed, they should have already bought it. And yet, here they were. He supposed it was to time to show what he could really do.
Or at least he would have. Unfortuantly, it was too little too late. With Dante and Ever providing a suitable discraction, they were able to create the opening the others needed to make their move. First up was Sally with a blast from on high. Darkheart nuetralized it with one of his own, but just barely. And just as he did, in came Dante and Ryuu with one double whammy to the face. The result sent him through his own tornadoe of flame, knocking him out of the center and causing it to vanish insantly.
But that wasn't the end of it. Before Darkheart could get his bearings, Matten's hand latched straight onto his chest, threatening to slowly but surely reduce him to atoms. Not that it would have a chance to do so. He made ready to teleport it away, but just as he did, Iris saw her chance and froze both himself and Matten's hand to the point that they wouldn't look out of place at a winter carnival.
Not that it lasted long. In moments, the ice began to thaw as a thin layer of shadowy flame surrounding him, melting it in seconds. He then raised a hand and made a gesture, causing Matten's hand to vanish and reappear in a locked newspaper box. But the damage was done. Between Ryu and Dante's assault, Iris' flash freezing, and Matten's unmaking, the mage couldn't last much longer. Powerful though he was, he had his limits. And as he stood there, his breathing ragged, it was clear they were about to run out. He raised his hand once more and, in a flash of light, he was gone.
Up on Melancholy hill.
Zach - Squad 1 - The Dorms
Oh no you don't, you son of a-
Zach was going by the due process that whatever the hell this guy was doing, likely wasn't going to be good for any of that. In his current state, Zach had no chance of causing any lasting damage on an older guy in a powered suit.
So, he simply had to ADAPT.
The tendril began to draw the gauntlet on his arm, but he forced the tendril to continue while the rest of his squad kept up the offensive. The end result?
Well, it wasn't the prettiest, but it would need to do the job
◊.
Structured in the center of this "grid work outline of a mecha", Zach's hands were covered in ink, which connected to the fingers/hand of the outline that wasn't that much larger than Leon's. Any movement he made, the "schematic" made as well.
The benefits of this? He was in a schematic of a Mecha, easy to handle the movement strain and handle anything larger than he was. The "suit" was fast, and the ink was as hard as steel.
The downsides? There were a lot of open areas to hit HIM in. The Mecha needed to be maintained by the ink itself, which he could feel tugging away at the lower portion of his back, threatening to almost rip itself out, he felt. So if he was going to use this, he needed to COMMIT to using it. In addition, as stated, the suit was basically glorified rebar bent to resemble the basic outline of a mecha.
But, he mused to himself, he couldn't think of anyone who could take rebar to the face and not feel SOMETHING from it. With less room to move than usual, due to the space now occupied by two powersuits (well, one and a half at any rate), he made a fist and swung as hard as he could at Leon's head, hoping, at the very least, to knock him off his footing somehow.
Is it selfish that I'm happy as we pass the setting sun?

Squad Three-Infirmary
Martin walked over to Ash and let out a small sigh, already telling that he was going to regret the decision he was about to make but not exactly being the kind of person who could stop once he had an idea. "Here," he slid a usb into her hand and laughed a bit. "I started a recording before we fought her to make sure that if she said anything incriminating that we would have it. It also has a recording of me calling her a, well um...female dog." he turned a bit red at the implication.
Beyond that there were certain things the villain had said he doubted she would want floating around. Maybe it wasn't the most heroic thing to do given the situation. But he was a hero in training, losing a recording during a huge fight was bound to happen. "If you need anything, just let me know."
