Masked Solaris
Nova City Bank, Basement
Interactions: Pine @Crimson Flame, Pestilence @Goblininamech, Silver Sentry @Rhona W, Rift @Aku the Samurai
There was an explosion upstairs. It almost sounded like a boot had gone through the front door.
Company arrived faster than i expected. But no matter. Ethan thought, raising a hand to stop the group's progression. What were they about to walk up into was anyone's guess.
"PENGUIN!"
Then there was another crash, and the skittering of glass. What on earth was going on in the main floor?
And, as the tell-tale glow of a forcefield cast by Silver Sentry colored the top of the stairs, Ethan knew they were severely lacking on time. His violet eyes glanced to Samson, and he gestured to the bag the man held.
”Now is a great time for that bomb, Pestilence.” He said with a nod.
Before he turned to Pine.
”Can you detect anyone or anything outside the building? If so, is it possible to trap them? Not necessary, but it'll help.”Ethan took one last glance as the two, then at his men holding the loot, before his eyes narrowed, and he turned his attention to the top of the stairs and the heroes getting the great idea of getting too close.
”WE HAVE A BIO BOMB!"
His voice carried, clear and strong, without fear.
”Stay where you are and do not move! Once we leave, you can attempt to disarm it.”Ethan glowered at the top of the staircase, as if tempting them to disobey him. Then he scoffed, raising a hand up. Above all their heads, a massive blue star swirled into existence. It crushed through the ceiling, devouring and melting away the roofing above the main floors’ side office, to the rooftop to the outside beyond that.
Looking at the clear blue sky shining down from above like Providence, Ethan grinned to his comrades and men.
”I hope you brought your balancing shoes.”Small red stars appeared in front of Pine, Pestilence and Ethan's men. The men seemed to recognize the game being played right away, and hopped onto their respective stars, balancing quickly. Ethan himself balanced on his own star.
”Just a quick note, don't put your cheek up against it. It'll sear your hair.”Then, with a quick movement, Ethan shot the stars upward. They acted like a launching pad, shooting the group up through the levels of the bank and onto the roof in one quick, clean action.
Nova City Bank, Lobby, Main Level
Interactions: Glutton @BurningCold, Dante @Half Pint, Ltd. Ivan Barrett @Scarifar
Meanwhile, on the top level of the bank hostages were in plain sight, covered in vines all over the lobby. Alas, as Fae Valentine wandered freely around the back offices, the main bulk of Ethan’s men were in the bank's lobby, dealing with a new wave of problems.
It's true, a few heroes had got past the men guarding the hostages. But they weren't focused on that. No. Ethan's men had their eyes on the police force entering the building.
As Glutton, Dante, and then Lt. Ivan Barrett would enter the building with his men, they would come across as painful sight in the bank's lobby. At least ten of Ethan's men, faces covered, had taken refuge behind the hostages bound in various places in the lobby, rifles pointed at the hostages.
”Take another step and we'll kill these innocent people!” One of Ethan's men shouted out.
”Let's talk!”
