It happened.
I'm dead.
Funeral was last week, and you all missed it.
Well, it seems it's time for the boomstick to do the talking...

Alright, so I'm working on a fight scene to wrap up the vault encounter. Working two jobs has been cutting into my time, but estimated time of arrival should be tomorrow morning-ish.
I don't encourage shipping.
"Ash can handle the fall."
Julian's statement was heard loud and clear, but Radorion had never actually attempted jumping from such a height. The wind whipped his hair as he leaned out the hydraulic door and watched Tha'am lower Kid Q to the rooftop. Hesitating for a second, he scanned the roof for the best spot to land with minimal noise. It would have to be a top of a wall - the reinforcement would absorb the sound more effectively. With that consideration, Radorion took a deep breath.
"Alright, here goes..." he mumbled to himself as he let the wind take him. The fall was quick, not lasting more than two seconds. Surprisingly to himself, he managed to land on three points with nearly no pain. He pushed the 'hows' and 'whys' to the back of his mind as he lifted his left hand off of the surface of the roof and stood up straight. There wasn't time for that now.
Tha'am had already phased through the walls and into the building as Q and Ash prepped to get inside the structure themselves. Ultimately, they decided on a utility doorway on the roof as it would lower the chances of being spotted. The locks were of analogue design and though Radorion had a set of lock picks inside of his right glove, he reasoned that Query probably had his own set of tools. Radorion let Kid Q take point on disarming the lock. As soon as the last tumbler turned over, the two of them made their entry.
"We're inside. Ready for your plan, Cobalt. How many guys are there? What guns are they using? Anything that could give us an edge here." Kid Q asked through the telepathic link. The whole idea of being linked mentally was still a little off putting, and surprising, to Ash. He was caught off guard this time almost as much as the first.
"You should make your way into the vault, they are armed with assault rifles, I can only assume they are all military trained."
The group took this info to heart as they sneaked through the emptied corridors of the bank. The trip took a few moments, but they eventually arrived at the outer door to the vault.
"Military, huh..." Ash trailed off in thought for a moment before remembering the others could probably hear it. "Tha'am, do you think you could take care of their weapons? If they're busy unloading the vault then they won't necessarily have a grip on those rifles. Remove those from the equation and make a distraction to draw their sight away from our direction so Query and I can subdue two of them quietly, leaving the third for you."
The door adjacent to them was wide open and they could hear the rustling and commotion from within. Fortunately, the telepathic link had enabled them to be completely silent up until this point. Ash peeked in through the entryway - the robbers at least seemed to be focused on filling bags for the moment. He waited and watched, but they did not turn their attention to the door.
"Cobalt, we're heading in..." Ash conveyed through thought. He turned the corner and started to skillfully make his way towards the closest threat.
"Team, careful, I don't know how.. But.. They tore the vault doors off" -there was a momentary pause- "With their uh, hands."
Ash stopped in his tracks momentarily, struck by the news. He had thought it strange that there wasn't the hint of a burning scent in the air, which would usually accompany drilling and would certainly be present in the use of plastique. Ash looked down at his right hand. He was still confident he could deliver sufficient force to the back of this man's head to knock him unconscious, and that's all he needed.
"Well...in for a penny, in for a pound." He thought with a bit of unease after a pause of consideration.

Well Radorion asked if anyone has any ideas for an approach. Right now Query volunteered Tha'am and Radorion opted to join em'. I don't think Tha'am and the others have voiced their opinions yet though so there's a start!
I'll get something a bit more comprehensive up once everyone puts their ideas together regarding infiltrating the bank.
Alright, it's up. May go back to edit to make it higher quality (yay phone). Lets get a plan thrown together!
As the crew finished filing their way into the jet, Julian finished making the final checks before lift off. The team was all strapped in as the aircraft jolted and the engines began vertical lift. The jet glided from the hangar and the engines revved up to full thrust. Julian changed the systems over to forward thrust once enough altitude was gained. They were off!
The flight was relatively short. The team had enough time to check and re-check their gear, but not much else. Julian brought the jet down a few blocks away in a largely vacant parking lot.
"Alright team, we're a go," Julian announced. "I'll be cooperating with the police on the outside and will provide you with support from our end. Query, Tha'am and Ash are heading to find a back entrance. I went ahead and queued up the building blueprints and a camera feed from the inside...study up, Titans. Looks like we've got eight gunmen in there!"
Radorion unstrapped himself from his seat and stepped up to Query and Julian. He looked over the camera feeds and the blueprints momentarily before looking back at the others.
"Well, we can get in easy enough..." he said, "How do you guys want to handle this?"

It's not going to be deep since the phone's annoying, but I'll get us to the bank lol.
