Turn 136
Shift into my soldier form then go over and try to get the driver to leave...If that fails then either knock him out or shoot him
(1+1=2) You shift into your soldier form and exit the van, trying to look as soldiery as possible when you approach the tank. Your plan was to trick the driver of the steel behemoth into leaving, but you seriously doubt that you'll be able to make yourself heard over the stream of expletives coming from the loudspeaker mounted on top of the tank. So you decide to instead resort to the universal plan B, shoot him or knock him out, depending on what is most convenient/satisfying. The problem with plan B is that the person you want to attack is securely locked away inside of a tank, and plan B doesn't account for that. So you sneak back into the van as quick as you can, not wanting to get left behind here if Blarney drives away.
*thrown across the van because of not wearing seat belt*
"Blarney, where did you learn to drive? Clown school?"
See tank, find somewhere to hide.
(6=6) You mock the driver a bit, and then realize the full extent of the situation. The van full of villains just crashed into a goddamn battletank, a tank belonging to the US army, and they probably have orders to kill you on sight, since you have committed acts of terrorism in the middle of Manhattan. So you decide to get out of there as fast as possible, comrades be damned, because when faced by a tank it's every man for himself.
(2) Unfortunately for you panic and exactly determined teleportation doesn't go well together, and in your desperation to get away from the tank you just pop away to anywhere but there. You find yourself suddenly appearing in a room full of bunk beds, quite obviously in some kind of military compound, but at least the room is currently empty.
Ask the general if there's anything else I can do to help him out.
(2) You ask him if he needs any further help from you, but he just tells you to stay put and not do anything stupid. Then he leaves. Not exactly the reaction you had hoped for, but at least they don't seem to regard you as all that much of a threat anymore as there are only a handful of guards in the room.
"We might get separated, I enjoyed our time together, if you need any help, find me... Hello?"
Find Sue and offer to 'help' her again if she ever wants it. Once I find her I will sneak towards F.F. Plaza.
(4) You quickly retrace your steps, and soon you feel a tap on your shoulder and hear Sue speak from behind you, she tells you to slow down a little, because her legs are still a little numb from before. She says that she'll keep you in mind if she needs help in the future, but for now she wants to get back to the Plaza and try to figure out what has happened. So you both head off towards your common goal, getting quite close.
"I want something that's out of the way, but not hard to access if you know the right path. I would also like something with a large storage space, and very sturdy."
(6) “Ah yes, one wouldn't want any annoying interlopers interrupting one's industry. There is in fact a place I think will fit perfectly, an old army base, disused since fifteen years back, we've not found anyone willing to purchase it yet. Would that suit your business?”
"Why does nothing ever turn out the way I want it to?" Look around.
(1) You try to look around, but the sound of quite a few guns being cocked interrupt your attempts. You slowly raise your head enough to get a look at whoever is threatening you, and you spot about fifteen men wearing black suits, all pointing pistols at you. Guns being rather distracting when pointed at oneself the only other thing you manage to see is that you are lying outdoors on a lawn, and there is no darkness in the sky.
I continue my previous actions, fleshing out the fortress and sealing the other corridor to the other junkyard in the same fashion I did the first.
(4+1+1=6) You quickly seal shut the other corridor, collapsing it too just to be sure, and then get to work on making the shell of a building into a proper evil headquarters. You decide to go for a more Greco-Roman architecture this time around, being of the opinion that a true classic will never go out of style. So you start shifting the metal around, doing your best to include some columns and places where murals and statues may go, you are determined to make this your best work yet. And while putting a lot of time into construction will give you an imposing base it will also increase the time it takes to build it.
Burst into room and kill people using my tentacle legs and TK, over the comms say "All units stand down, repeat, all units stand down!" then shut off comms, if I have enough time I will also look for a map of the base and locate the garage and armoury.
(5) Like a many-legged Bruce Lee you fly into the room, delivering a multitude of bone-shattering kicks to the two nearest people,
(1-1-1=1) pretty much reducing their chests to fleshy bags of blood and broken bones, and needless to say killing them instantly. You then launch a blast of telekinetic energy at the head of the man standing near the back wall,
(4) striking home,
(6-1=5) but only smacking his head against the wall, his helmet taking the brunt of the impact. You quickly leap at the last three before he can respond, wanting to remove as many as possible from the fight that is sure to ensue.
(5) but they respond with great speed and agility, getting out of the way before you can touch them. Now facing down four people who know you are there and are all carrying weapons you do the wise thing and duck down being a filing cabinet, and luckily for you they seem to want to kill you themselves rather than call in reinforcements.
get Off of van and stagger away, wonder how i was able to stay on the van when it hit a tank.
(1) You briefly wonder how you managed to stay on the van when it hit the tank, when you realize that you didn't! You are currently flying through the air, luckily not smacking head-first into the side of the tank,
(1) but your attempts to land on your feet by wildly flailing your arms around does the opposite.
(4-1=3) You manage to land in a pile of junk lying by the side of the road, and avoid any major injuries.
*Take evasive manuevers and try to avoid, outrun the tank.*
(4) You quickly put the van into reverse and back up through a nearby alleyway, emerging on a nearby street and quickly continuing towards where the meeting is supposed to be held, wanting to get far away from the tank. You have the nagging feeling that you've forgotten something though.
Enemy Actions (Heroes/Hostiles)...
(2) The helicopters land near where the fortress used to be, and the soldiers within start poking around in the ruins without finding anything of use.
Call for backup
(2) The apparent leader of the suit-clad men reaches for his radio, only to realize that he must've forgotten it on his desk. How embarrassing.
Allied/Neutral Actions (Villains/Civilians)Help Blarney
(4) She guides him towards the meeting location to the best of her knowledge.
MurderDeathKill
(5) Like a murderous fiend from the deepest pits of hell he leaps at the SHIELD soldiers, firing his big gun with reckless abandon,
(6) pretty much covering the entire area they occupy with searing hot plasma.
(6-2-1=3) But despite this some of them manage to survive.
Also MurderDeathKill
(6+1=6) The actual murderous fiend from the pits of hell doesn't want to be any worse than a mere human, so he also leaps into the fray.
(4-1=3) But most of the SHIELD soldiers manage to get out of the way of his rampage,
(1-1-1=1) but the one guy that doesn't gets pretty much reduced to a fine red paste by the demon's claws.
Wait
(4) It waits there, pretending to be just a normal car.
Keep watch
(2) He tries his best to keep a lookout for enemies using all of his senses, including the sixth one, but doesn't accomplish much.
Follow Mutosis
(6) Now she actually manages to keep on his trail without wandering off, but her incessant tapping on his shoulder is getting a bit annoying.
Try to look like respectable businessmen
(1) They could run through a stadium full of people in the nude and covered in mustard and look more respectable.
