Kieran smiled when he heard Julian over the intercom. The guy was really getting into the whole villain aspect of the session. Even if it was a bit over the type. His acting needed some improvements and Kieran definitely wasn't a minion. Then the explosions came. He could even hear them from where he was. That wasn't a big feat for him considering how acute his sense of hearing was. He continued to run, this time regularly, through the facility. That explosion should have changed the game for the villains right there. If not he was sure they had something up their sleeves that they were ready to pull out.
Kieran however stopped in his tracks when he heard Aiden in the com link. Someone had already gotten the helicopter?
"Dammit. I can't leave anything alone for five seconds." He hadn't expected them to get there that soon or even use routes other than bombarding the front entrance. Maybe the heroes did have a tactical mindset. He had planned to immediately run to stop whoever got the helicopter, but he was interrupted by Aiden's broadcast. There wasn't a viewable screen near him, but he didn't need to see it to know what Aiden was doing. The words, the sounds, and Kieran's imagination was just enough. He understood that they had to act like villains, but it was possible that Aiden was taking it a little too far even if these hostages weren't real. That scream... it felt real. That would hopefully be enough to get the heroes out of the facility. They wouldn't go against what a hero would do and actually risk lives? Even if they were only simulated ones, right?
He sighed and shook his head before speeding back the way he came. Just in case he was wrong he had to make sure that he wasn't risking someone coming in and taking advantage of an opening. Kieran reminded himself to thank
Rao for his abilities when he was able to see Rita coming up. Due to his enhanced vision it was more than easy to spot her out. This moment was something he was more than looking forward to. Besides S'tann she was one of the people that he wanted to fight the most and here he was provided with the ultimate opportunity.
"Let's welcome her with a speed blitz." He thought to himself before speeding himself up and sticking out his left arm to start his attack with an arm to her neck.
