Also, turn fifty!  Thanks for sticking with me, everyone!

Yep!


Ires took a breathe as she brushed off the remaining shards of glass. Windows were deadly enough to slice the defenestrator with minute needles and sharp crystals. She was lucky Nick had a good eye - well, better than his first throw.

She then fires an arrow at the weaponry of the Hammers, hoping to disable them with the bazooka taking priority.

Or throws down a flashbang, whichever would work better.

Then tries to scout the inside from her position, searching for the hostages.

Tiruin: you're a floor above where all the interesting stuff is happening, did you want to go downstairs?

I can't observe from my height? The bank does have windows, right? Higher ground advantage for trajectory weapons? Nobody expects a person at that height? :3

You seem to be operating under the assumption that you're in a different building.  To clarify, you were tossed into a window of the bank, and now you're above Caellath and Dwarmin, not across.

((You don't see them. You are on the floor above the action. There is concrete between your feet and the Hammers.))

((. . .I usually see banks as huge buildings of space and architecture. I just held up the turn...))

Ires then facepalms, forgetting the basics of her past-life training! She then decides to search for any stairwells down to the first floor. Then heads to the Monitoring room, or tries to find a map on the structural layout which is often placed in such floors. Fire exits and the like.

Re: Roll to Be Heroic - Turn Fifty-One! In which
« Reply #519 on: May 09, 2012, 12:01:53 pm »

And now for turn fifty-one.

Outside the Federal Reserve,
Agent Green stretched his hand and his power out towards the guy with the bazooka.  [3+2] If flew out of his hand cleanly and straight into Desmond's hand.
"Hey!  Give that back, Skywalker!"
Agent Fortmüller resolved to create a better alloy for his next suit.  That would show those walls!  That would show them all!
He picked up his rifle from the wreckage and entered the window Desmond had went in through, leveled it, and fired at the one with the crossbow, [5+1] blowing off his left arm at the shoulder and [6+1-1] hitting the disarmed bazooka guy behind him, blowing off his left leg, [6+1-2] before embedding safely in the wall.
Agent Reon spent a moment trying to shoot the Hammers through the floor, then decided to head for the stairwell instead.  There she found a map of the floor, which showed the floor was nothing but office space, a fire exit to the east, an elevator and stairwell in the centre, and bathroom to the south.  Ires went down to the first floor, where Desmond was helping the hostages out, and Nicholas was checking for anyone else to shoot.
Over their radio links came Jenny's voice.
"My partner and I are heading to the Gardens, she thinks that's where the assassination is going to happen.  Do you three know if anyone is going there?"

Current Status: At the Federal Reserve Bank
Guy With a Crossbow: [unconscious, wounded (left arm gone)]
Mr. Bazooka: [unconscious, wounded (left leg gone)]
More?: [unknown]


Underneath Times Square,
Agent Conners and Agent Maxwell exited the sewers and sprinted towards MSG, Lisa pulling ahead as she drained energy from various bystanders.  Jenny radioed the situation to her teammates.
"My partner and I are heading to the Gardens, she thinks that's where the assassination is going to happen.  Do you three know if anyone is going there?"

Current Status: Going to Madison Square Garden

Nicholas looked at the large sniper rifle suited for the armor and decided that trying to find a bandolier for it would be nearly impossible, choosing to carry it. With both hands, unfortunately.
"Now that speed and strength would be nice..."

Nicholas checks his destroyed armor to see if he can salvage or repair anything. If yes, he does it. If not, he calls for the agents to retrieve the scrap metal. Anyways, he starts to search for more hostiles inside the Federal Reserve.
" 'Steel Wall', you should go to the Gardens. If there is an assassination attempt about to happen, as indicated by the sniper rifle, you would be the perfect peson to act as a shield. I would love to play 'Counter-Sniper', but I'll try to see if I can salvage any of this and then search for more Hammers inside the bank."

~"That's a negative...no idea. Try the local PD. Do we have VIP's there?"~ He radioed back.

Desmond turned to his teammates, nodding toward Nichloas.

"All right, I'll go-Fire Fighter, you clear the building with the Swat guys-secure the hostages, prisoners and weapons. I'll move to the gardens.

He looked over at Iraes, his eyes flickering with concern to the cut on her arm-probably from the glass or the fall, he guessed.

"Huntress, can you accompany me? We'll need that bow of yours to pin down the shooter from range."

Action: Desmond heads over to the Gardens with Huntress if she agrees, otherwise alone.

Nicholas waved both of them away.
"She should go with you, there really is such need for a specialist in ranged warfare to take down the sniper. I'll stay here and help the SWAT team. When everything is clear and if there is still use for me, I'll try to follow you afterwards."

As she ran, questions flew through Lisa's mind. She could only hope she was right about this... As she leaped over a car, she toggled her radio to the local PD.

"This is Agent Conners, we have a possible threat at Madison Square Gardens. Requesting info on any VIP's present or events taking place there. I repeat, we have a possible sniper at Madison Square Gardens, requesting assistance."

Radio HQ and the police for info on anything going down at the gardens. Keep booking it there as fast as possible.
