Can I help support the building? If yes, do that. EDIT: Oh, but first, take a look at Headless, make sure he's still limp, unmoving and hanging over the alley.
If possible, have the drone approach the telescope and take a look around.
((Not much else I can do. Damn my giant size.))
The Headless guy is still in place, wiggling his toes and fingers but otherwise not doing anything. You do your best to get into the building and prop up the ceiling you can reach.
The drone, at the same time, sees something. The targeting array on the telescope has started to move, sliding into place along the long metal wires that keep it hanging above the concrete bowl of the telescope.
"Uh, okay."
Get out of the building as per orders.
I guess someone finally got that thing in the basement.
I bet it was the girl with the rockets. She was nice.
GTFO of the dangerously unstable building.
"Everyone quick move move move!"
herd people out and away from the building
Getouttathere.
LEG IT!
Follow what needs following and kill what needs killing
Everyone with any sense in their skullgoo stampedes out of the building and on to the street outside. They then stand there, staring at the building and it noticeably shifts and settles, leaning to the side and releasing bursts of dust as though the individual floors are being lowered back down on top of one another, whatever force was holding them up now dissipating.
Fuck. FUCK. GUYS SOMETHING FUCKING BEEPED GET ME THE FUCK OUT OF HERE.
Crawl into sight ASAP I don't want to get beeped at again.
How'm I feeling? Awake? Aware? Hearing Despair laughing at me in the abyssal caverns of my mind?
You're awake, and suddenly in control of whats left of your body. You wiggle your stumps and yell for someone to grab you.
Pick Pan up then go up ladder.
"I man good with computers."
throw a box over whats left of faith and finagle it so i can carry her back to the ship without touching her.
Make sure i have all my boxes, if not grab the missing ones.
Follow mass exodus.
Feyri had one benefit of being in this type of body. She could communicate very easily in textual matters--the same amount of time it would ignite a thought, much shorter than if it were spoken.
Upload complete? Why is everyone evacuating?
Having done that in a split-second, she checks her rocket fuel (as a quick action).
You've got plenty left.
"You know, I bet that computer isn't actually important. Let's just get out of here and join the others, shall we? I've only got one arm left and I intend to keep this one."
Grab my sliced off arm. See if I can't help Auron collect Faith bits and put said Faith bits into the artifact boxes with my mass amp so nobody has to touch them. After grabbing arm and maybe helping put Faith in an artifact box, get carried upstairs by Renen. If I can carry Faith upstairs once she is in a box in my hammerspace, do so
Renen looks around...
How... What do you mean upload... Hey, somebody should grab one these eggs for Steve, now. I have a bad feeling, we should get out of here.
Grab my sword handle. Look around (in BT at BT speed) to make sure everything is all right. Help some of the injured team mates to get out of the basement, except Faith. If there is no time to look around, get out of the basement.
Upload complete? Why is everyone evacuating?
"Well, chief, I think it's because we got Faith. So now that the immediate danger is gone, us wounded and crippled folks would like to skedaddle. Take myself for example, The only limb that's still attached to me is my one arm.
By the way, If you or Renen could pick me up and just pop back to the surface quickly and deposit me near Flint or the truck, that would be super."
Right.
Use rockets; get any incapacitated team members who are unable to get out on their own--if possible loot...one of the machines (the egg-thing?) if any space is left.
Leave basement. Examine surroundings--what could be meant by Faith's words?
(those machines are too big to "loot" easily. )
The basement team, half of it being carried because they are missing significant portions of body mass, climbs up the ladder out of the sewer. However, this time the ladder doesn't lead to a black barrier, but a manhole cover. They throw it open and find themselves standing on the street of cul-de-sac somewhere near the mountains. Nothing about the area looks familiar or related to the diner; everything around them is a suburb. Their radios work now, as well.
"Everybody out of that building, now! I'm not losing people so close to the finish."
Ask Steve what exactly we'd need to do or where to go to get pickup.
''Damn, wish that basement team would hurry the hell up.'
He grumbled to himself.
>Theres a shuttle waiting at the space port. Alternatively, get anywhere out of the city and we can get one to you. "GET OUT! GO GO GO!"
Make sure everyone starts getting out of the building, then charge into the black wall. If it lets me through, decapitate anyone that isn't a teammate. If it doesn't, enter the void, take two steps, and exit, then proceed to create a an amp powered shockwave with enough force to cause serious internal injuries.
You wait until the rest of the team has run back down the stairs and the charge straight into the black wall. You bounce off like it's made of rubber. You shake your head and then enter the void and take two steps forward. When you exit, you're still in a black expanse of seemingly nothing, however there are about a half dozen people here, including one which is sitting on the "Ground" radiating pulses of darkness. You try to shockwave the group but the blast only travels maybe a few inches before dissipating. The men in the void are looking at you but not moving. You feel yourself slowing down as well, like you're trapped in molasses.
