"If you're not a raccoon, Rocket, what are you?" Ed looked thoroughly confused. He felt like he was in some weird messed up children's book with a talking tree and raccoon and he was struggling a bit to parse that. And the raccoon was challenging his abilities, which he didn't care for. Ed took a slow breath and nodded at Guin, he wasn't surprised she had already talked with Pietro, but if he had been unconscious still the chance was there that she might not have.

As they walked Ed pulled out Bethany's hair. He hadn't searched for her yet. He wrapped it around the compass point and whispered the nonsense words that would activate the spell. Nothing happened. Just what he needed. He was irritated at first, and then a jolt of fear went through him. Unwanted fear. He didn't want to be worried about if the group was alive. He said the words again, this time tuning out Rocket and Groot. This time the spell activated and the needle spun. He let out a soft sigh. "Bethany is that way."

He repeated the spell for Runa, seeing if she had moved. She had, but was in the same place as Bethany by the looks of it. "Runa is with her it seems." He said.

Annie
"Whatever you say kid, not sure what else to say about it. And "lovely" is not the word I'd use to describe Rocket, but he grows on you." Gamora wasn't even really looking towards Annie when she spoke, as she seemed more interested in somewhat ignoring her and glancing around, looking for the others in her group. She wasn't even saying anything else to Annie, and luckily the other prisoners seemed to be ignoring them too.

Bethany and Runa
"I always watch where I am going," the man said in response to her, "I do not look for fights, fights seem to find me." The guy clearly was a bit odd, but he didn't seem to be looking for a fight. At least right now, which was a good thing probably? Who knew really since when he spoke it sounded off, and he kind of took things literally with what he was saying.

Hallway
Rocket despite randomly hitting himself in the face for no reason (and Groot seemingly laughed slightly next to him) was ignoring Guin. He did pay attention to what it was that Ed had said with regards to Raccoons. "I don't even know what a raccoon is!"

"Uh, that's kind of what you are."

"Nope, no way, there is no one else out there in the universe I guarantee it."

"I am Groot."

"Right, not many like you either Groot!"

Mary was getting a bit of a headache trying to sort through what everyone else was wanting to do, or with regards to these two people that they ran into. They seemed alright, or well, at least the tree seemed like an okay being. She wasn't so sure about Rocket though, since the raccoon seemed to be a bit cocky, and he kind of reminded her of Guin in that respect. Cocky and arrogant. She wasn't at all surprised that the two of them weren't really getting along at all.

"Well is there a way to get to a more central part of this place? Since we don't really know where to go or what sort of rooms are in this facility..."

"I am Groot."

"What? You want to stick with them the entire time? Really Groot, just because they are new to the whole being intergalactic criminals thing does not mean we get to play babysitters for them!"

"I am Groot."

"Fine," Rocket said, looking at the others, "Central area, find a door that is connected to this," he said, before leaning against the wall that when the group looked at him would be on the right, "Wall. The main area, which is where all of the chaos and fun is going to be later. Anyway also has stairs and stuff that allows you to go up and down, will allow you to get to any other level you might want to go. Probably anyway. Better than these dreary hallways."

"Well, uh thanks again for that..."

"Whatever, let's just go, find our respective losers, and get the hell out of here." It wouldn't take the group long to find a door slid open to lead them all into the main central area too! This was a good thing, probably anyway, the area was still big though, but it also had been the sort of direction that Ed's spell had been pointing him towards, so this was a start.

You'll be fine, everything is escapable, it's not impossible... But uh... A talking tree and a raccoon? That's a bit... Weird...

"It's all good, you have other useful skills other than your abilities right?" Bethany asked looking over at Runa for a moment before turning her attention to the large guy and rolled her eyes. "Clearly this guy has a few screws loose in that noggin of his, maybe dropped on the head as a baby." Beth said poking a bit of fun at him she wasnt going to actively seek out a fight unless he decided to throw the first punch, as Beth crossed her arms over her chest.

"I'm Bethany, and thats my friend Runa we are looking for our friends and hoping to find a central area do you know how to get there from here?" Bethany decided to ask, she just hoped that he was smart enough to know where that area actually was the sooner that they could find the others the quicker they can get out of this space prison.

Guin Stark

Location: The Kyln
Skills: Telepathy

"He's clearly a trained squirrel from Willy Wonka," Guin told Ed. Her emotions were going all over the place and she couldn't understand her own mind at the moment. Whereas what felt like moments ago she had been a panicking mess, now she felt fine and in control. She suspected Pietro might have been taking advantage of their mental link to mess with her head, but she also didn't feel like asking him about it and potentially causing an argument. They all made it into the larger central area, and Guin tried to scout ahead with her telepathy, but apparently everyone in there was brainless as she came up empty. She even did a second try and it was like anyone alive there was actively thinking nothing at all.

There were panels all around and a central security area of sorts up above. Guin tried to see if she could make out anyone in the security area, but it was too hard to tell. The windows must have been tinted or something. Her left eye twitched slightly and she went up to one of the panels, figuring she'd make herself useful, but she couldn't even access it. Her eye twitched again, as she gave another try, only to find out that the panel contained... nothing useful or helpful at all! She was so irritated with everything that she didn't even respond to Pietro.

Runa Baldurdattir

Location: The Kyln
Skills: N/A

Runa was hesitant, but she nodded as a response to Bethany's question. "I'm rather decent at gambling," she expressed. She could tell when people were lying to her, so poker faces pretty much could never fool her. She also adored stargazing and being out in nature. She knew many stories about the Nine Realms and had visited most of them personally on one occasion or another. She giggled slightly at Bethany's taunts, not too worried if a fight did break out between them and the rather strange man. He reminded her of Thor, only... well, somehow with fewer brain cells, a feat she hadn't known was possible.

"Do you have a name, stranger?" Runa then asked. Hopefully he could help them find Lance and the others - but she wasn't going to hold her breath. With each passing second she had less and less confidence in his ability to communicate with them and recall and retain information. He was basically a walking paperweight. If he didn't know anything, then there wasn't much point in continuing to talk to him, when they'd probably have better luck searching the massive prison on their own.

Antoinette McCarthy


Location: Kyln -- Space
Skills: Enhanced Intuition;




Antoinette wasn’t deterred by Gamora’s tone or the way it seemed like she was ignoring her. Antoinette kept looking for Gamora’s friends though as well as her own. She wondered if she tried reaching out to Guin or Edus if they would hear her. Antoinette had a little telepathic ability, having used it earlier before ending up here, so it was possible.
”What did you and your friends do to end up here? I’m still trying to figure out why we were arrested,” Antoinette confessed. Her blue eye started to glow again as she searched the area, trying to get a sense of where her friends might be. She didn’t want to potentially invade her friends minds unless it was absolutely necessary. Her intuition seemed to work flawlessly this time and Antoinette glanced up. She bounced in place as she learned where a majority of her friends were. She looked back at Gamora, smiling brightly.
”I think I know where my friends are this time. You’re welcome to come with me to meet them if you want and then we can keep looking for your friends,” Antoinette offered. Gamora seemed like a woman who followed her own path but Antoinette still wanted to extend the offer. Antoinette started to move from her level up to the next though, looking for the dark hair of her friends and their specific features.
”Bethany!” She called out as she neared them, moving her way gracefully through the crowd.

Ed snorted under his breath at Guin's comment. He kept his eye on the compass and the path they were taking. It was good that the central area seemed to be in the right direction at least. That was good. If the group all gathered there naturally it would make finding the group easier.

He wasn't certain how felt about the talking tree wanting to stick with the group. Was it because Mary understood him? Was the tree happy that there was someone else out there that understood him. Ed understood with a flash of clarity why Mary understood Groot. It was because she had the plant ability. That suddenly made more sense.

Annie, Bethany and Runa
Gamora rolled her eyes slightly at Annie, but followed along after her, "Remember how I said my friends are idiots? Well one of them decided to steal something after we completed a job we got hired for," she commented. Bethany and Runa would be able to see Annie, as well as Gamora coming towards them.

"I am Drax, and no screws are loose." he responded.

"Oh look, there is one of them now, convenient isn't it, Drax you seen Rocket, Groot or Quill so we can get out of here or no?"

"I have not."

"Course not, then again you don't really pay attention much anyway."

"I always pay attention, nothing escapes my sight."

"Yeah right."

Other People
"Guin you okay?" Lance couldn't help but ask her, following after her into the central chamber and her trying to access a nearby panel and clearly getting frustrated with not finding anything useful or something like that. Then again, being stuck in this place was starting to put everyone on edge or something, since personally he wasn't thrilled with being here, not sure anyone else actually wanted to be stuck there.

Rocket wandered off away from the others not really caring what the group was doing at all. Groot stuck by them as Rocket more or less disappeared among the other prisoners. "Where is he off to?" Mary couldn't help but ask, looking at Groot.

"I am Groot," came the tree's response.

"Oh looking for your friends, okay then," she commented, before Rocket came back over.

"Hey Groot, I'm pretty sure I caught a glimpse of Gamora and Drax a few levels down, no sign of Quill though, so just great, we're stuck with these losers."

"I am Groot."

"What? I am being nice!"

"I am Groot."

"I call everyone losers, it's common!"

"Wow Guina you weren't kidding about the talking tree and raccoon," Pietro said, after he seemed to magically pop up out of nowhere, aside from the obvious gust of wind.

"Who the hell are you?"

"Well who the hell are you?" Pietro retorted with an eye roll.

"Why is your hair that color? Are you an old man or something?"

"Why the hell do you keep talking and not saying anything useful?" Pietro was clearly getting a little bit annoyed with Rocket. I don't like the raccoon.

"I am Groot," the tree said, seemingly chastising Rocket.

"I'm allowed to ask questions!"

"Okay, well those guys are weird..." Pietro said, seemingly ignoring them now as he turned to look at the others again. "Anyway, sorry took me a bit cause well, ow," he explained, the ow obviously referring to him ending up shot more then a few times before.

"Pietro, think you can see about running around and seeing if you can find the others a lot quicker?"

"Probably, just give me a little bit, I don't want to burn too many calories all at once cause otherwise I will pass out and that won't end well probably."

Bethany nodded slightly at Runa, though gambling wouldnt really be helpful unless they were playing a game against some prisoners or whatever for something useful that could get them out of here. Beth simply rolled her eyes at Drax as he introduced himself, yep this guy was certainly dropped on the head as a kid. "Yeah you definitely do have some screws loose in that noggin of yours." Beth said sarcastically when she heard a familiar voice and turned to see Annie coming over with some green skinned woman, reminding her of those green aliens in Star Trek she couldnt really remember their names.

"Hey Annie, have you seen Lance or the others?" Beth asked and looked at Runa knowing that she was hoping to find Lance sooner rather than later, before turning her attention to the green skinned woman who knew Drax. "Hi i'm Beth, and thats Runa nice to meet you." She said she wanted to go and find the others and hopefully find a way out of here.

Guin Stark

Location: The Kyln
Skills: Telepathy

"What?" Guin asked Lance, tearing her attention away from the less than helpful console. "Yeah, I'm fine. Just great. Really psyched to die in a space prison." She had almost a bit of a manic look to her, her emotions still swinging wildly from moment to moment. Right now, her fear was expressing itself as annoyance and anger - rather than the crying hysterics it had been earlier in the cell with Mary. She felt wildly out of balance, but she wasn't actively trying to calm down or anything either. All she wanted was to be out of this prison and watch it explode as they flew away in their ship. She was ignoring the tree and the raccoon, as currently she wanted to put both of them through a wood chipper.

She was relieved to see Pietro back again though, pretty much instantly abandoning the console and going to stand next to him. Had she been freaking out the way she had been earlier, she likely would have hidden behind him. Yeah, the raccoon fucking sucks. I want to stuff it at a Build a Bear, she grumbled. "Hey, before he wears himself out already, I can scry for them," Guin said, meaning that she could do a telepathic sweep. She didn't have Cerebro to make it easier, but she figured she could probably pick up the others.



Runa Baldurdattir

Location: The Kyln
Skills: N/A

Runa nodded, sizing up Drax for a second. He seemed very strange, but also potentially helpful? If she could figure out where Gandr was and how the Nova Corps was preventing her staff from coming to her, that would be a huge help. She could then just warp reality to get them all out of this mess. However, she doubted that Drax - and his green friend - would believe her claim that she could warp reality through words as long as she had a special object. It sounded a bit farfetched the farther you journeyed from Asgard. Still, the woman struck her as the warrior type.

She was relieved to see that Annie was with them as well. Although, she was still concerned at the lack of Lance. He was awfully squishy and had a frustrating habit of not wearing armor. "I don't have access to Gandr, I'm afraid," she informed Annie, not wanting Annie to judge her for not having gotten them all out of this mess already. "Friend of Drax, do you know where personal weaponry is kept on this ship?" she inquired. She didn't feel like mentioning the magic nature of Gandr, for obvious reasons.

That was fair Ed tried to tell himself. If the others could be found faster then that was ideal. They were only missing Annie, Beth, and Runa at least. He knew Beth and Runa could take care of themselves quite handly. If his spell was working right the three of them seemed to be together so that was good.

He continued to follow the path that his compass gave him as best he could. The disadvantage of how the spell worked was it gave a direct line. If he need to make turns those would have to be made with the hopes that he'd be able to turn back the direction he needed to go. On Earth he usually used google maps as well to help, but space didn't have google maps. Unless talking raccoons counted.

Antoinette listened to Gamora’s tale as they neared her friends. From the sounds of it, Gamora and her friends definitely needed to be arrested but Antoinette wasn’t worried about traveling with Gamora even though they clearly were criminals. Or her friend was at least. Antoinette was definitely a lot happier to be standing with people she knew though.
”Oh, that’s okay Runa. My intuition seems to be working and led me to you two. The others I believe are several floors up, heading to a large central area. If we get moving I think we could run into them,” Antoinette told them happily. She looked over at the man that was with them and smiled kindly. ”I’m Annie,” she introduced with a slight wave.

Annie, Bethany and Runa

"Sure, but it is outside of the main prison area, typically where the guards typically work when not out here. It's on the way to the docking bay where the ships are," she said a bit matter of factly. It was more then a bit obvious that she knew what she was doing, probably anyway.

"Gamora knows this prison better than many."

"Only because the several times we've been here, usually do to someone else's stupidity I actually pay attention to where we are going and where the places of interest are. Since we do need to get our weapons back."

Suddenly, up a few levels from them, they'd be able to hear something, that sounded like a bit of a commotion, like there was a fight or something going on up there. They weren't too far from the closest set of stairs after all, and they'd see a few other prisoners head up, Drax included.

"Oh this should be entertaining." Gamora mused, before heading that way too. A random prisoner ended up falling down into the main open area and hitting the ground with a thud, before he started to get up.

Other People

"Yeah, scan, we know they're near by, just not exactly sure where," Mary said to her with a nod of her head.

I could probably kick him halfway across this station if I tried if he keeps being annoying, Pietro commented mentally to Guin, clearly still annoyed by Rocket's continued existence. Guin with her mental scan would be able to tell that down about two flights of stairs was where the others were, so not too far now, at least they all were together at the moment.

"Guin, it is okay to not be okay, seriously just was wondering, you are kind of freaking me out a little bit though not going to lie," Lance said rather calmly to her, though he was partially freaking out himself with regards to everything. Then things started to go from bad to worse in a way, as a prisoner ran into the group (bumping into Lance specifically), and started seemingly glaring at them now.

"You're in my way!"

"Oh hey it's Taserface!" Rocket said gleefully before he started laughing at the name.

"...His name is Taserface?" Pietro responded, before he started having a problem containing laughter at that name. What sort of name is that? He's just asking for people to laugh at him!

"I am Groot."

"I agree with him maybe don't mock the guy who also is clearly not alone," Mary pointed out, as several other prisoners (all who seemed to have some serious strength) came up behind him.

Taserface obviously didn't seem to like his name being mocked, at all. "No one mocks Taserface!" he snapped, before he instantly swung a punch at the closest person to him, which unfortunately was Lance, and it hit him in the head. Lance stumbled slightly from the force of the punch, though there was little bits of green starting to creep up the sides.

"What's wrong with him? Does he get sick from a punch to the face or something?" Rocket asked, still cackling with laughter at what was going on, but he did notice the color change.

"I am Groot."

"Yeah, agree with you on that one too."

Lance in response to the fist to the face as he regained his footing (and Taserface and his cohorts were laughing at this point) and instantly punched Taserface in the gut with an amount of force that was clearly surprising to him as it easily sent him falling backwards and slamming into the railing of the large opening. Unfortunately for the poor cohort of Taserface's who just so happened to be right by the rail, this resulted in him getting thrown over the edge of the railing and down to the ground below.

"...How did you do that with your noodle arms???" Rocket asked, not laughing anymore and clearly paying now.

"Complicated," was the only response he got from Lance, whose eyes were now a different color, that being green now.

Taserface and his cohorts now started swinging wildly at the entire group. Pietro instantly moved in front of Guin so that (hopefully) she wasn't going to end up getting hurt. One managed to swing a punch their direction, but Pietro was quicker and caught the guy's fist in a heartbeat, before flipping the guy around and knocking him to the ground. Two more appeared to try their luck, one actually managed to land a decent punch while the other missed entirely. "Wow, beginner's luck against a speedster, I'm impressed," Pietro commented, before in the blink of an eye both of them had been knocked backwards.

Mary managed to duck underneath a fist that had been heading her way, barely though. Rocket scrambled up onto Groot's shoulders as the tree instantly grabbed onto the throat of the one who had attacked Mary and lifting the guy up. Another one showed up, and this time managed to throw her onto the ground, causing her to slide a little bit. She managed to jump back up and kick the guy back.

"Hey Groot, question for you," she asked, clearly not doing too well at the moment, "Mind if I borrow a branch from you?"

"I am Groot?" it was clear that the tree was confused.

"Just do it and you'll see!"

A tree branch poked off of Groot, and with his free hand handed it over to her. She smirked slightly, her eyes a brilliant red, as the branch in her hands started sprouting black spikey thorns all over it aside from the handle. "This'll be fun," she said gleefully, before she swung it like a baseball bat, hitting the guy in the head with it and there was a loud crack as he fell to the floor. Other prisoners by now were starting to joing the fight, and another tried to attack her from behind, before she caused black vines covered in the same thorns to spring from the branch and wrap around the guy. "You know it's rude to sneak up on people like that," she taunted.

Two of the other prisoners instantly swung at Ed, one of them landing a solid hit in his stomach with enough to likely leave a bruise and to be really sore, but the other one whiffed his attempt at hitting Ed in the face. Partially because the first guy hit so fast and hard that it caused the second one's aim to end up being off.

Of course, the ring leader isn't going to take all of this lying down. "You're gonna pay for that!" he said to Lance, before he slammed his fist into Lance's stomach before wrapping his hands around his neck and since Taserface was taller, ended up lifting him up off the ground. "I'll kill you!"

"Yeah... Well... Good luck with that," he managed to say in response, putting his hands on Taserface's arms, though now they were a noticeable green color as he swung his feet up and kicked him in the stomach, loosening his grip before Lance broke his hold completely by forcing Taserface off of him and dropping down onto the ground again, before he swung his fist and slammed it into the guy's head, once again hitting him pretty hard.

Bethany looked over at Gamora for a moment as she spoke, at least she has been here before then so they could follow her and learn how to get out of here as quickly as possible with the others. When she heard something and watched an inmate falling down to the ground and what sounded like utter chaos started to happen. "Well something is happening." Beth said as she noticed Drax quickly heading up the flight of stairs nearby. "I know a quicker way." She said as she grabbed onto Runa and Annie's hands and quickly grabbed Gamora's as well to, Beth closed her eyes as she tried to shadow travel to where the chaos was, but couldnt. "Well thats awkward." Beth said mainly to herself as she did it again and the group was engulfed in shadows.

She managed to shadow travel the group to where the chaos was now as Beth released Annie, Runa and Gamora's hands looking over seeing their friends were there. Along with a talking tree and racoon she looked a bit confused for a moment, she then started to hold out her hand as shadows started to solidify in her hand forming a makeshift sword of sorts. "Lets get going." Beth said as she rushed forward towards Taserface and swung her makeshift weapon at Taserface's arm cutting it, and swung a bit hard and managed to cut it deeper now. "Unless you want to loose your arm I suggest you leave now." Bethany said to Taserface.

Guin Stark

Location: The Kyln
Skills: Telepathy

Guin put her hands to her head, using a focusing technique that Xavier had shown her - during one of the rare moments where she actually tried to figure out her telepathy with him. The others weren't that far off from them - just down two floors, and not too laterally displaced either. "Runa, Annie, and Bethany are just two floors down from here," Guin told the group, removing her hands from her head. Please do it now, he's a dick. She really didn't like the raccoon, which was ironic, as she was in many ways very similar to the raccoon.

She then glanced over at Lance. "I know that, that's why I'm fucking fantastic," she told him, her voice oddly upbeat yet not quite sarcastic. A truly horrifying man then came on over, bumping into Lance, and a fight broke out. Guin's heart started pounding quickly - she usually wasn't scared in fights, but this wasn't just a fight. It was a prison fight. She was terrified of prisons and prison fights were one of the most dangerous things that could happen in a prison. She squeaked slightly, very much glad to hide behind Pietro. Make it stop make it stop make it stop!!

Make everything stop how?

I don't know, do something!!! Guin then got a bit of an idea. She was a huge Star Wars fan. And she loved to play video games. So there was a concept she had been exposed to before, and just maybe, she could pull it off and essentially make it so everything could end a little faster. She concentrated, feeling the minds of all of her teammates around her, and she just sort of amped everyone up - making everyone think a little better, work together a little better, just do everything slightly better. She thought of it like Bastila's battle meditation, giving everyone a boost.

Well I think trying not to get pummeled is doing something but that's just me.

Do that too! She saw a rioter getting near them and she bit her lip, before kicking towards them, only to miss. She threw another kick, only to miss again.

Runa Baldurdattir

Location: The Kyln
Skills: Infinite Deception of Words

Runa nodded, glad to hear that the rest of their companions weren't as far off as they could have been. With the size of the Kyln, they all could have been separated at far larger distances - perhaps even distances large enough to make Bethany's shadow travel difficult. It was far too large for a prison, especially with the number of prisoners housed. Runa had to wonder how the guards were able to control them all, when they seemed to be so clearly outnumbered. Perhaps it was just the large deterrent of having nowhere to escape to that kept the prisoners in line here. "Near the ships? Excellent. That's efficient," Runa murmured. Something was happening up ahead and Runa raised an eyebrow, moving towards the staircase.

Bethany then shadow traveled them and they were with the others. Runa was relieved to see that Lance seemed alright. She experimentally threw out her hand, attempting to summon Gandr to her. At first, nothing happened. But then, the staff flew through a wall, leaving a Gandr shaped hole, and slammed into her hand firmly. Her staff had what looked like the remains of restraining bolts on it. "Gandr, it is good to see you, friend," she muttered. She then surveyed the rioters and decided she could use her power to end the riot. "All of the rioters, except for my allies, are fast asleep, dreaming of flying sheep," Runa lied.

"What? Oh, nope!" Guin then called out.

Runa then snapped her fingers, feeling her power gathering around her as she went about reshaping reality. And then...

The power just fizzled out.

The group wouldn’t have to worry about finding the others for too much longer. Up above, it sounded like a fight was breaking out and Antoinette couldn’t help but think her friends were involved. Trouble seemed to follow them around as was evident with being here in the first place with no real identifiable reason. Bethany grabbed onto Antoinette while she was distracted and she squeezed her eyes shut before she felt the familiar squeeze of being teleported. Antoinette kept her eyes closed to help keep her mind free of being in complete darkness. She felt the release and opened her eyes again to see that Bethany had successfully teleported them.
Once Antoinette was reoriented with the world around her, she looked around to see that her friends were very much in battle. Bethany jumped in right away, going for a prisoner's arm but Antoinette hung back. Her purple eye started to glow as she thought of a bazaar of falcons that would attack those they and their new friends were fighting. Seven falcons materialized from high above and started to dive down towards the group they were fighting. They weren’t doing a lot of damage to the prisoners but if they served as a distraction in order for her friends to get the upper hand, then Antoinette saw it as a win.

Ed was not thrilled about the idea of joining a space prison fight. How it had happened was beyond him, they hadn't started it that was for certain. The guy with the world's...universe's worst name had. Someone sucker-punched him. Ed had some hand-to-hand combat training. It was good for when Magic was best not to be used. But this was getting out of hand quickly.

He summoned a bit of Force and pushed the two guys who had been jumping him. They slid several feet away from him. Probably, very surprised. But he didn't bother to watch their faces. Instead, he touched the small shield in his pocket and an orange bubble popped up around Tazerface. He floated the bubble out over the opening.

"How about we stop trying to beat the crap out of each other or Tazerface here can fall." He couldn't keep the snicker in his voice out when he said the name, but he was being serious about dropping the man. It wasn't a far enough fall for him to die, but he might have a few bones that regretted the fall. Also, if anyone punched him again they risked breaking his concentration on the shield and Tazerface would still fall.

"Well I guess that works, nifty trick you've got there," Gamora said to Bethany after she took them straight upstairs, and Drax came running up the stairs with a few other prisoners. "Took you long enough."

"You were behind me, but now you are in front, how?" he asked a bit confused.

"You know right now I'm not exactly asking, other things to worry about."

"PUT ME DOWN!!!!" Taserface roared, glaring at Ed as he seemingly tried to break out of the bubble to no avail. Clearly the guy was short a few brain cells or something like that.

"Wow Taserface, you aren't as tough as you thought are you?" Rocket said towards the guy, still cackling a bit at his name, and now him sounding a bit pathetic in his mind.

"I am Groot."

A few of the prisoners did stop, but there was the other problem of the fact that more and more were starting to gather around, and the majority of them clearly didn't care if Taserface fell at all. And now they were joining in on the brawl. Some were fighting each other, since apparently a lot of the other prisoners were just looking for an excuse to fight each other, but many still had their attention on the group.

"Ooooooh more fighting, good, I was preferring that option anyway," she said with a bit of a laugh, as she held out the branch she was carrying and more vines shot out, before wrapping around two more of the other prisoners and started flinging them around as if they were nothing. Though she looked annoyed about something, just not necessarily the other prisoners.

The prisoners that Ed had knocked back were now heading his way yet again, and clearly not too thrilled with him pushing them backwards without a care. Much like Taserface, they seemed to be short a few brain cells, since even though they had slightly hesitated since Taserface was over the opening, they seemed to have moved past that hesitation and went straight for the attack. They both managed to land a decent punch on Ed, and unfortunately that resulted in him losing concentration, and Taserface ended up hitting the ground below. If anyone looked over the edge though, they'd already see him getting back up again.

Of course the others would get caught up in the fighting too still, as the group were easily outnumbered at this point. The birds that Annie had conjured up weren't really effective in the fight, and for the most part the prisoners were ignoring their existence. Now several people would start to get attacked, more then before of course aside from obviously just Ed. Groot was still holding off a few of the prisoners easily on his own with Rocket on his shoulder still, and Gamora was moving rather effortlessly and efficiently taking down 4 by herself without any sort of weapons. Then there was Drax, who seemed to be making a bit of a fool of himself as he went up to the biggest looking prisoner and just punched him several times in the face, before he got punched in return and thrown backwards, but he seemed to be enjoying himself with the fight.

Then there was everyone else, Bethany would luck out entirely, as she didn't get hit at all despite several attempts from a few of the prisoners that were surrounding where she and Lance were at this point. A few prisoners did manage to actually land decent hits on Runa, since she had been distracted by her trying to warp reality, and it was with enough force that she'd actually end up hitting the ground somewhat, but she still had her staff which was something at least! The group seemed to be ignoring Annie since she didn't really seem to do anything at all.

Uh... Runa's powers didn't do anything... Pietro was starting to zip around at this point, moving quickly and more or less creating a bit of a wall between the prisoners and Guin for the most part. I think I'm starting to feel a little dizzy... Yeah this was the sort of thing he had been worried about, him burning way too many calories way too quickly and probably passing out from it. He punched a few guys when he could, but he was starting to get tired, there was a reason he typically had a stash of food with him wherever he went.

Then there was Lance, who was already having a few problems on his own, but someone managing to get a hold of a metal bar or something and slamming it into his head, that was more or less the last straw of sorts. He slammed into the ground and there was some blood that ended up on the ground from where he hit, however that wasn't the end of it. Oh no, he'd been fighting off shifting completely (hence a few of his instances of strength) but that was the last moment that resulted in his control slipping entirely and he shifted. The prisoner who had hit him with the pipe had been about to take another swing, when Lance completely shifted. The pipe did hit with a bit of a loud clanging sound, but that wasn't long, since Lance retaliated by punching the guy straight through the nearest wall, actually, went through 2 walls. Luckily none of them seemed to be outer walls and punching a hole in the station.

"Okay, now I need an explanation, cause what the hell just happened? Is that contagious? Are we all going to look like that?" Rocket instantly asked.

"Sure totally can be," Mary said a bit sarcastically, "Only way would be if you need a transfusion and he's the only guy around."

Now a few of the prisoners were stopping the fighting, and more or less just staring at what the hell just happened. More prisoners were coming down the hall and through the opening in the wall now, back to creating more fighting! They didn't seem to think twice about what is going on, they only care about chaos! Someone came through the crowd though, a man who was looking at Gamora now.

"I can't take you guys anywhere without you causing trouble now can I?" he said to her.

"How about you shut it, you know trouble follows us everywhere, we wouldn't have gotten stuck here again if it wasn't for Rocket!"

"What? I was trying to get more cash for us!"

"By stealing the one thing we were told explicitly not to steal!" the man said to him.

"Yeah well it was worth more credits!"

"I am Groot!"

"Okay, I'll stop arguing, only if Quill stops arguing!"

"Oh real mature!"

"Both of you shut it!" Gamora said, clearly more then a bit annoyed with both of them. Of course, the argument had to stop mainly because of the fact that the man (who Rocket had referred to as Quill) got grabbed by another prisoner and punched in the gut.

"Ha! Totally deserved it!" Rocket cackled, but stopped when Gamora shot him a glare.

Now the group, aside from the few that were still within the area that had attacked the others, some of the newer ones to show up were now keeping their distance, probably because now there was a big green guy who just let out a rather loud roar in their direction. Almost like he was daring them to come closer and within his arm's reach. Though others were clearly moving around and about ready to start attacking the group again.

Bethany Bell


The Kyln
Skills: Shadow Manipulation





Bethany turned to look at Gamora and smiled towards her and nodded. "It is pretty useful in a pinch." Bethany said just as Drax came running up the stairs with a few other prisoners. "I'm totally a wizard and know magic." Beth said sarcastically towards Drax as the fighting started to get worse. Feeling a bit more invigorated thanks to Guin as she managed to get out of the way from the other prisoners who had tried to attack her.

"You know you all aim like stormtroopers right?" Beth said as she used her powers as shadowy tendrils shot out and grabbed onto five prisoners and flung them across the room hitting the nearest wall. Beth quickly turned to Runa just as she was knocked down onto the ground by some prisoners trying to do her ability to warp reality and Guin contradicting her. "What Guin said." Beth said, hoping that Runa would be able to do her thing again.

She turned to look at Rocket and Groot asking whats wrong with Lance as a prisoner managed to hit him in the back of the head and he suddenly shifted. "And why are you a talking rabbit is that contagious?" Beth replied to Rocket, even though she knew that he was more or less a raccoon. Hulk Lance hit a few prisoners knocking a large hole in a nearby wall as someone else came down looking at the guy who seemed to know the other people there.

Guin Stark

Location: The Kyln
Skills: Telepathy, Unarmed Combat

Guin glanced up for a moment, noticing what looked like a bunch of birds starting to dive bomb them. Had Anita still been around, she would have guessed that the shapeshifter had made some friends - it took her a moment to realize that Annie must have been behind that. Her powers reminded her of Miranda, Magneto's girlfriend from WandaVision. Ed was apparently trying to diffuse the situation by putting Taserface - one of the absolute worst names she had ever heard, and she had once read a SHIELD file by a Fantastic Four ally named Impossible Man - inside of a giant fish egg. It really looked like Nemo was going to pop out of the glowing orange bubble at any minute and look for his father.

I think that the collective IQ here has to be dangerously low, Guin observed to Pietro. Seeing how stupid everyone was acting was actually helping her feel much calmer.

What makes you say that?

Well for starters, one of them is called Taserface, and their idea of battle strategy is to mindlessly charge at the people with amazing, if not incredible, powers, she pointed out. Guin put her hands to her head and concentrated on reaching as many minds as she could. Pietro was starting to get worn out, so it was up to her to protect them. "You're all really chicken - like super scared - and want to run away," Guin instructed. She managed to get through to about half of the prisoners involved in the riot, as they stopped fighting and started trying to get away from them all.

I mean yeah, but is that really that surprising?

Guin smirked slightly. Yeah, you're right, it's impossible for criminals to be smart, she teased. She tried to send out another telepathic command, but it didn't really work out. So instead, she looked at the prisoner nearest to them that was trying to hurt them, and Guin kicked him in the head, instantly knocking him out. So kind to me.

"Lance, really? You know we don't have a change of clothes for you." She was clearly feeling much better.

Runa Baldurdattir

Location: The Kyln
Skills: N/A

Runa stared at her fingers in disbelief, snapping them again and again. Nothing happened. It was like the universe had taken a secret vote to strip her of her powers and she hadn't been notified about it. She couldn't help but feel angry and afraid. She had always had those powers to fall back on - and here, with friends, she had thought she'd be able to use them to protect them all. They lended themselves well to trickery and deception, but Runa didn't want any of that - she just wanted to be good. Maybe this was the world punishing her. Maybe she wasn't allowed to be good. Maybe she wasn't allowed to have power and love. Was she being forced to choose?

Runa didn't say anything, didn't offer an explanation to the others as to why her powers weren't working. Instead, she used her staff as a melée weapon, swinging it around and knocking out rioter after rioter. She experimentally tried to give a blast of darkness off with each hit and was relieved to see that it was working. At least some of her powers were functioning. By the time she had come to a pause, she had taken out seven people in total. She turned and looked at Lance, seeing that he was large and green - but not monstrous, at least, not in her eyes.

Runa waved ever so slightly at him.

Antoinette McCarthy


Location: Kyln -- Space
Skills:




Antoinette couldn’t help but frown as her birds went unnoticed. She thought they were lovely creatures, but clearly the others were unimpressed. Antoinette thought birds appearing out of nowhere was pretty impressive. The fighting continued on around her and soon enough, Lance hulked out. Honestly, Antoinette was impressed with how long he lasted but she knew it was only a matter of time really.
Antoinette looked around at those still fighting and wondered how much longer it was going to be before guards showed up to break everything up. There had to be guards, right? Someone had let them all out of their cells after all. Antoinette let the thoughts drift to the back of her mind as she joined the fray to protect her friends. Granted, the Hulk would do that in spades.
