Chekov stifled a chuckle. "You serious? You're telling me there's some crack bus-jacking team out there that plants agents at crime scenes, specifically so that they can report injuries and tell the feds how much they didn't see? I mean, the masked wrestler guy was one thing, but that's kind of--wait, hold up, did you say reward?"

He paused. The significance of Wanton's statement had just now registered with him. "So, what you're saying is, the government's going to give me cash... just for calling an ambulance?"

He looked over at the paramedics. He looked back at Officer Barren.

"Hot damn, I think I love this country."

Kara nodded and started to run again. /If anyone's out there that's a mutant that can help three girls get away from the MRF down in the sewers that would be very much appreciated. Please I hope someone can help us./ Kara thought hard. She begged for someone to come help them.

Tylee saw the girl behind fall and thought to herself "gross" and kept running , she kept running and run to split path, see looked down the right path and hear some sort of waterfall and down to the left a hollow sound with something dripping, "Guys which way should we go? left or right?" She stopped and looked at the others.

Kara stopped and thought. She heard voices to her right and they didn't seem like they were looking for munants. "The right." she whispered. Kara started ahead of the others but the fox girl ran right infront of her. "Hey." she whispered again.

"Right you say? Well lets go shall we?" She turned to the girl and pointed to the right. "You first"
She looked behind trying to hear if the bomb had been turned off or if it was still ticking. She pointed her eyes but there was to much nosie she couldn't tell.

"C'mon let's go Foxgirl. Do you want to get caught?" Kara whispered in a yelling form. She got pretty mad since the girl didnt' answer so she just stomped off down the right tunnel. /Why doesn't anyone listen to me? I hate that about me. I'm never loud enough. AHHHH!/ Kara thought to herself. She was now a little upset and she started to cry as she ran. Tears were running down her face and they were flying back to the two girls.

Tylee saw a tear fall from the girls face and called to her "Hey are you hurt?" She transformed back into a human looked at the girl trying to see if she had any wounds, "If your hurt don't forget we can help! We must stick together!" As she said that Tylee heard loud foot step from behind. "ahh lets get moving!" She grabbed the girls hand in case she need any help.

(OOC: sorry I haven't posted, I'm in California and had a hard time getting to a computer. Okay, Nevrmore, sorry 'bout that, I was sort of confused. And I was referring to the 'looked like' part of your sentence, but it doesn't matter.)

(OOC: Tylee and Aly, the bomb already exploded, and Aly is waiting for the MRF, believing she'll have a better chance without you guys.)

(Agent Wanton)

"So, what you're saying is, the government's going to give me cash... just for calling an ambulance?" The guy said, Agent Wanton stifled a smile.

"Yes, as long as your statement is accurate and you pass our cursory mutant test." He said, glancing back at the C.O.

(Gale)

"What the-" Deride shot to her feet, looking around frantically. Gale stood up as well, looking down the tunnel, as Rolf tensed. Deride was telepathic, and no doubt she had sensed something unnerving.

"What is it?" Rolf asked. The other glanced up the tunnels.

"Others, being chased by the MRF, heading this way." She glanced at Rolf. He nodded. "An untrained telepth, a...a fox-human creature with...shifting abilities, and another with unknown powers, all girls. They fled into the sewers..." She closed her eyes, concentrating. "from the bombed city you spoke of earlier."

Rolf stood. "Grab your things," he said, "we must hide before the MRF get here, lest we sustain injuries." Gale snorted, and Rolf sent him a stormy look. "It is too bad about the others, but they are too weak to survive if they flee, and do not fight." Gale shot to his feet.

"Wait- we're just going to leave them to the MRF!? What if they don't have combative skills?! It isn't their fault!" Rolf moved to speak, but Ann cut him off.

"He's right...they didn't choose this." Gale nodded.

"So, are we too weak to survive, as well? Because we are doing the same...fleeing, not fighting." Rolf glared at him, and snarled.

"Fine. Deride, inform their telepath of our location, and tell them we will help them...but only this once." He glard at Gale. "Prepare to fight!"

((OOC: Oh ok Well lets go on from that))

Kara felt a thought. She stopped in her tracks and tugged on the girls hand to let her go. /Okay thank you so much./ Kara thought. She ran to the other supposably munants. The other girl wasn't moving. "Are you coming. Some one is down this way and wants to help us." Kara whispered loudly.

"Really how did you know ? Are you one of thoses telepths? " Tylee turned and started to follow the girl, well which way?...Hey do you know where my friend went? Oh I hope she ok... " Tylee looked around for her. "...Well we better go before they come, so which way do we going?"

(Aly)

Turning around, she watched the other two dart around a corner. Nodding, she glanced back towads the MRF and began to run, as well, hoping o gain some time. As she neared the corner, she heard low, unfamiliar voices echoing down the path Tylee and the other girl had taken.

Crum! The MRF must have been waiting to ambush us! She made a split second decision and darted after the two, only to run into a group of people. She froze, glancing at their dirty, torn clothing. One of them nodded at her.

"It's okay," she said. "We can help you and your friends, but then you must go." Aly blinked in confusion, then spun around as the MRF burst around the corner, and began firing.

(Gale)

Deidre glanced at Rolf. "They're almost here," she whispered. He nodded, and as to of the girls burst around the corner, Rolf held his hands up, ready to make his shield. The third appeared in a second, almost running into Gale. He dodged to the side as Deidre whispered something to her. Everyone looked up as the MRF rounded the corner and began to fire.

Rolf grinned, a feral smile, as the bullets bounced off the invisible wall.

"Wow that's amazing." Kara whispered to herself. She wished she actually could do that, but all she could do was talk to people through their minds. She really didn't like her power all that much. Since she really couldn't do anything with it. She just kind of stood there watching all the others battle.

Tylee ran around the corner and almost faint when she saw the other people who seemed to be mutants standing ready for a fight she quickly run behind them when the MRF started firing, scared as hell Tylee quickly turned into a fox and hid behind the girl she was running with. "Hey" She whisper to the girl, "What the heck is going on how are those people!?! man I dont even know your name!" She cursed under her breath and said "Oh god what have I got myself mess up in!"

Chekov gave agent Wanton a broad smile. One thing could be said of the man; although his smoking habit was probably older than most of the soldiers in his presence, his teeth were the kind of white you could poach and turn into piano keys.

"Buddy, so long as I get to ride in that tank with you, I'll curse at as many mutant tests as you want."

Kyra screamed as pain shot through her body like a bullet. It traveled up her spine to the base of her neck before she opened her eyes for the first time in a couple of hours or perhaps days. She stared around groggily as she realized where she was, she knew this too well.
In an instant she was knawing at the cage bars in every possible form, roaring and shrieking in rage and horror. Around her was the too clean smell of the lab and the too fimiliar machines and operating tools.
Two doctors stood on the other side of the room, preparing anitseptics for their procedure before turning to her.
"No..." She whispered before slumped down.

"My name is Kara and these people are helping us. But the only thing is I don't know who they are." Kara said a little irritated. She was a little stressed about the whole MRF thing. She hates it when they come after her and people like her.

"Oh well Im Tylee, you might want my name too " Tylee looked over to the battle thinking that she had to do something! She then saw a pipe of the roof that had some room to get into. "mm maybe I can attack someone from above? Hey Kara can you pick me up and put me up there" Tylee pointed to the pipe.

(OOC: sorry I haven't been posting, three times now I've written my post, and my internet failed before I could finish and post.)

(Aly)

The bullets flew towards them, bringers of death, but then stopped suddenly, as if a giant wall blocked them. Out of the corner of her eye, she noticed Tylee and the other girl conversing, but her main attention was focused on the man in front of her. His arms were held in front of him, as if to ward of the bullets, and he was grinning darkly at the MRF. He was the wall! That must be his power- a force field, or something like it. A power similar to hers.

The MRF, at some unspoken signal, stopped firing. One of the men (or was it a woman? With the helmets, who could tell?) tossed something small and round towards them. It rolled to a stop, and Aly froze. A grenade! She cringed back, and it exploded.

Smoke undulated on the other side, rolling against an invisible force. The man gave a harsh bark of laughter, and the wall must have dissipated, for the smoke was no longer bound. With a flash of instinct, Aly knew why- the MRF could not see them, and did not realize that the barrier was gone. Suddenly, though, one of the women motioned for everyone to get down, and the others flung themselves to the floor, pulling Aly and the others with them. Just as quickly, the gunfire resumed, tearing through the delicate veil of smoke.

(Agent Wanton)

Giving the civilian a curt nod, the Commanding Officer turned and marched back towards the tanks. Suddenly, though, someone shouted...something about injuries and...well, whatever it was, it was loud. Immediately, Agent Wanton trained his gun upon the shouting mans chest. Paramedics were racing towards the wreckage. Somewhere during the commotion, news teams had arrived, and several reporters were talking loudly to their cameras.

Agent Wanton blinked and relaxed, turning back to the civilian, professional again. "Follow me to the tank, please, and don't say anything to the vultu-I mean, the news reporters. He turned on his heel and headed back towards the tanks, ignoring the many reporters who asked him for a word. Inside, he was cussing as loud as he could at the stupid vultures.

Tylee looked around and saw Aly."Aly! were did you..." Bang! a grenade went off, Tylee ears pointed in shock as she close her eyes. She wait a while then heard a man laugh,how was this funny were under attack Tylee thought. She use the smoke to hide herself as she went behind a a pipe when they started firing again. What do we do what do we do! Tylee thought to herself.
