[i]Oh buddy, this is gonna be a big one. Better get ready to take the moment I get when I can. The guy, or the orb?[/i] Emmanuel thinks to himself, feeling the massive lightning bolt that is about to strike the room building. There's no way he COULDN'T feel something like that. So as Volt prepares, so does he. Gathering energy in his feet, he condenses it into his trademarked electrochains. Well, soon to be trade marked anyway. His lawyer hasn't figured out what jurisdiction it would fall under. Its a work in progress. Nifty trick though. Condensed electricity so dense it forms solid mass and shape. Samuel taught him that when he bequeathed his powers upon him. However, he didn't teach him anything else, which is the reason his abilities with actually doing things with electricity is so minimal. He can absorb it, use it to make himself better, shock things, and do the chains. Not much else right now. So no fancy electricity blasts, and certainly not calling lightning from the sky! After this is all over, he's gonna ask Volt to tutor him in the ways of electricity. 

Speaking of lightning, with a BOOM and a CRASH, the lightning bolt bursts into the room, exploding the window and sending shrapnel everywhere. This is the moment to strike, as Apogee shoots a laser out of her goddamn eyes and zaps the gun out of the madman's hands. Woah. Laser eyes? Lets not fuck with that lady then. Anyway, as Apogee shoots her lasers, Emmanuel makes his move. His chains shoot out of the bottom of his feet, running under the floorboards, then burst out behind the desk where the mysterious orb is being kept, floorboards splintering and flying as the chains shatter them. 

Emmanuel decided to go for that orb after all. [i]Yeah, getting the suppressant out of the way as soon as possible is definitely the best option here. That'll let Apogee and I go full blast and take out any remaining goons that we have to after we're done here.[/i] As he thinks that, the chains coil around the dark orb and begin to tightly constrict, clearly meant to be trying to shatter it into a billion little pieces. If that does in fact work, Emmanuel will probably dissolve the chains and go in for the victory himself. 

In the back of his mind he registers hearing a thump as Volt hits the ground. [i]Gotta make sure to treat him to a pint later or something. That move will change the whole course of the battle here. Plus, that was fucking badass.[/i]
