For a moment Nicotine let her consciousness linger in the control room, tempted to try and take the place herself without waiting for the rest of the team, but with with four men watching the screens and three more standing nearby armed it would be a close run thing to pull off. There'd be no way she'd be able to without someone raising an alarm in the process, and if that happened Nicotine would be hard pressed to hold the place alone against a concentrated effort to take the room back before the rest of the team could get inside.

Pulling back her mist, refocusing herself back outside the facility Nicotine stepped back towards the briefing table where the rest of the team were still sitting and talking. Scowling at their inactivity while she'd been doing the 'hard' work she moved gracefully back to her seat, reaching for the interface controls. Quickly she sketched in the details she'd managed to gather of the base's interior, clearly marking the sealed areas and the control room.

"I hope I'm not disturbing your little chat," She said sharply pointing at the updated display, "but here's an idea of what we have to work against."

Giving the team a moment to examine the map she'd drawn Nicotine continued to lay down the information as she'd seen it, explaining the guards' armaments and patrol routes, as well as the heavy presence in the control room. "It'll take several of us working together to disable their security centre, there's too many guards in there for any of us to be able to do it alone. I'm more worried about where they may be keeping this equipment we're supposed to be looking for though, I couldn't find a trace of it anywhere."

Finn was thinking about the possibilities of what could go wrong in the mission when Nicotine came back from her surveillance and looked at the picture she had drawn of the area and informed them about the guards.

"I have a plan, first I will summon my familiar to help us" he said the words of his summon familiar spell and Drake the fox dragon appeared beside him.

"Hello" the creature said to them as its tail moved from side to side.

"Okay so can any of you fly in a way that won't attract attention? I was thinking that one you and Drake keep a look out from above and if you seen anything than tell Drake and he'll send me the information through our mental connection. As for everyone else, we keep the more obvious team members back in case we need a contingency plan and have the more sneakier members infiltrate the base. We can definitely use Relay's telepathy as well of alerting the people outside in case we need help." he told them.

"Does that sound like a plan?"

@Genni Gave a nod that implied, 'yeah that's not obvious at all,' "Like I said, my tactic would keep the fish in their barrels while we could safely enter and check the place out. But you guys do whatever you wanna do."

"I'll hang out with your Foxy friend, Mister Finn. And if you guys need me to bring the rain, I'll bring it... literally, hehe!" She made a gesture as if hopping off a really high chair, landing just above the floor. "Call me if ya need me though, 'cuz otherwise I can't do much else here." She giggled, leaving the briefing room to go get ready. Even if 'getting ready' was just making sure her outfit was on right, and her pistols were loaded.

F7 watched as the Pirate Queen leaped into action and attacked the two guards. He knew that she would need some help because more guards were on the way, and his powers would be useless for the infiltration. " I will go with her. If there are as many guards as you say then we will draw them out by knocking on the front door. That should give you as much time as you need to get in undetected and find the technology. If you need any help just contact us, I am sure I can whip up a tornado and have it rip through the inside of the base. Wouldn't that be....exciting." F7 said the last statement with a fake chuckle, he was satisfied with his attempt at humor. He nodded and the turned and began to walk in the same direction as the Queen.

The entire time he was talking, he had his fist clenched, inside his hand he was making his mode of transportation, a cloud. He stepped onto the small cumulonimbus cloud and used a gust of air to propel him up.

He watched as the Pirate Queen cut through four more guards and was waiting for more. He landed few feet away from her. "I think that if we are going to be working together then I should call you something more that Pirate Queen, unless you prefer it." After saying this, he smiled, but it looked like he broke his face instead. Then three more guards appeared, F7 looked at them and raised his left arm. He summoned lighting from his hand and shocked the guard in the middle. When the other two raised their weapons he used both hands and two more bolts of lighting and they fell to the floor next along with the first. "I sent enough electricity through their bodies to kill five cows, that should do right." He said as he gestured to the bodies. "Well anyways how about a friendly competition, who ever can defeat more guards wins,and the loser has to buy drinks, that's appropriate yes. Now lets knock, a thunder storm should do it don't you think."

The guards were taken by complete surprise when Qiqi landed behind them, both quickly spinning around to with their guns raised as she started to talk. Her large sword sliced right through them before they could fully attack her, but the sound of the commotion drew attention to the pirate. But those others that came quickly fell to her companion, causing the workers to quickly flee inside as more guards began to focus on their area. Around 20 total this time not bothering with who they were and simply began to fire at the two, and trying to keep spread out as well as keep their distance. If they could beat them they would, but would flee if it wasn't working. The bullets if they connected would be quite painful and they would even bleed if their skin wasn't bullet proof, it would be a very real sensation. The sounds of vehicles starting to run could be heard as some were getting into armored vehicles to try to engage that way, still mostly buying time for the base below to properly respond so they stuck to a few with powerful turrets. The men in the control room below sending signals inside the underground facility to initiate a protocol for situations such as this. There was no real indication above ground, but below the suffer the base was preparing to mount a proper defense against metahumans and other threats of that level and just needed a little time to do so.

Quickly stepping forwards Meltdown willed his silver skin up in front of his body, hardening himself into a near-impenetrable barrier to soak up the incoming fire. "Perhaps this wasn't such a good idea?" He said, turning a raised eyebrow in Qiqi's direction, although not actually directing the comment at her in any direct fashion. "I should be able to hold them off, but not for long. There's a limit to how much damage I can withstand before I need to rest and recover. Hardline, would you mind?"

"On it!" The russian medic called over, letting her body seem to fall apart for a moment as her silver blood reconfigured her form into that of a long, thin snake. Quickly weaving her way across the ground Hardline launched herself at one of the air vents Nici had identified in her recon trip. Smashing her way through the grill Hardline let herself fall down into the lower levels. "Now, which way was it..?" She wondered to herself as she began to make her way through the maze of air ducts and ventilation shafts, heading for the control room as quickly as she could, hoping the other infiltrators would be thinking the same thing.

Quickly turning to smoke Nicotine followed Hardline into the ventilation system, keeping herself cohesive enough to be able to move quickly and with purpose, rather than spreading herself too thin and leaving herself vulnerable when reforming. It felt strange as they wove their way through the air shafts and ducts, having Hardline's metal and plastic body rippling along in the middle of her cloud, and in a way Nicotine enjoyed the sensation of someone moving around inside her.

"It's this way, and then down a level and to the left," she said to the robotic snake, which buzzed back in the affirmative. Nicotine presumed that in Hardline's current form her voice box had obviously been disconnected and she wondered how long it would take the mechanical maiden to reform herself when they reached their destination.
