"They literally just got out of the torture chambers, they need rest. They can't just use their powers just yet." She argued against Leo's proposal to use their powers, "We get out the old fashioned way, remember, these people torture heros, they don't deserve mercy."
 
(It's Department of Weapon Development (DWD), not DWR. Sorry about short post, really have to go.)

Bolt
Bolt stared in complete awe as the mysterious gas tank opened up. Wait, Nishiki was female? Bolt followed the others. Apparently the group was headed to the DWD.
 
"Well, she's already used her powers to make it look like nothing happened in the cells down there, it's her call but it's our best bet to safely get to Nishiki's suit and get the hell out of here." Leo replies.
 
"No, it's not, we can't put strain on her even more. We'll fight our way through. And don't think of using one of the hostage's powers today, we can't risk Teiresias health for our safety if we don't need it."
 
Kitsune nods.
"I can handle that."

Mysterion
"Well, hopefully Nishiki will wake up by the time we get there. How does she look?"

Frostbite
Her pulse is somewhat stronger, but she's still not waking up.

The doors open in the lobby.
The heroes go back to the flight of stairs, climb up, go through the delivery hallway, and end up in front of the garage.

Mysterion
"The DWD is over there," I say, pointing at a large white dome similar to the one we just left.
 
"Well than, if Kitsune can than I guess we can. On your mark." She signalled to Kitsune, getting ready to run to the destination of the power armour, she hoped Nikishi was awake by the time they got there, "Say, once we get the suit what happens than?" She asked Mysterion.
 
Mysterion
"I think we should just get out of here. While it would be gratifying to release all of the imprisoned heroes, we don't have the time. We've left quite the trail, and they'll figure it out before long."

The group heads to the DWD.
There's a main entrance, like the DPR, and a garage, as well as several side entrances.
Which way do you go?
 
"Well, should go the side entrance, less guards will be posted at secondary entrances. And once we do get out of here won't they pursuit us, try and kill us later?" She asked, a bit worryingly,
 
Frostbite
​
"I say we head to the side entrance as well. We still have that car in the garage, right? So maybe we can get these heroes out of here, and find Nishiki's mech. I just hope she'll be good enough to drive." He looked to her limp body. "Or this'll be a little hard to get that suit out too."
 
Bolt
"I am in total support of raiding a side entrance. The front will be too heavily guarded. As for the delivery garage, it would take too much time to go back and retrieve the truck. As Roskoy said, it should not be as guarded," Bolt explained.

Solosgar Solosgar
 
(Don't make posts devoted to just alerting me. I come on as often as I can.)
Mysterion
"Alright. Let's do this."

The group quickly finds an unguarded door. Mysterion picks the lock, and the heroes head in.
The corridor goes straight, then splits off in 2 directions. One is labelled LABORATORIES and the other says DELIVERIES.
The heroes head toward the laboratories.
After going down a few flights of stairs and rounding a few corners, you find yourselves in a similar situation to the previous building.

Mysterion
"Bolt, can you do that thing again?"
 
(Not quite sure what to do here, so I'm just gonna do the super speed thing again. If I did the wrong thing, please just void this post. If we are in the hallway with the doors, just say that I used my super speed to scan the halls and take out any guards. I am writing this post as if we are in another receptionist area. Sorry for my confusion.)

Bolt
Bolt nodded. His super speed was still charging up. Bolt could use it- but it would wear out quicker. Much quicker. Bolt entered super speed. His main focus was to take out the guards. He zoomed up, shocking both of the guards. As his super speed wore off, Bolt zaps the receptionists.

Solosgar Solosgar
 
(That was what I intended.)
Oh dear. Not another Persian rug... Well, that comes out of the AVD's budget. Heh.
The group heads through the reception area, to another elevator bank with a similar set of elevators. Mysterion picks the lock on the elevator, the heroes get in, and Mysterion starts working with the tablet next to the door.

Mysterion
There's a function here for searching current projects. I search "nishiki," and dozens of results pop up. I log in with Frostbite's admin username and passcode, then examine the files.
It looks like the robot is on...
Floor U.
I hit the button, and the elevator descends.

The heroes arrive on Floor U. There's a long hallway, and a set of two metal doors at the end.
 
(Yay!)

Bolt
Bolt’s speed fully wore off, and he emerged, back in the moment again. He wouldn’t be able to use his super for a good amount of time now. But that was okay. Heck, they had a sniper with them. No worries. The mission wasn’t depending Bolt’s super speed. Bolt followed Mysterion into the elevator located in the room.

He watched as Mysterion tinkered with the pad in the elevator. The AVD was well-known for their high budget (it was in the billions) and their even higher advanced technology. A large portion of the citizen taxes were given to the AVD. They made millions of dollars from taxes each year. And they invested billions of dollars into research and technology development. Bolt had known this from the day he joined the AVD.

The elevator doors slid open. Floor U. There was a long corridor, and something at the end. Bolt squinted his eyes. Two colossal metal doors. Bolt dashed towards the door, and began to examine it. He investigated closely to see if there was any sort of keypad that required a code.

Solosgar Solosgar
 
There's a spot for an ID card. You doubt the delivery card will work, since it classified the man as working for the other building.
 
"Would an investigator card work, like the ones from the tourture rooms or will those ones still not work here." She looked over at the door, the AVD sure did have a budget, shame they don't use it for good.
 
"Of course, I mean we all should have one, we all did kill an investigator didn't we?" She flicked the ID card from her poket showing the group, "I keep all identification from everyone I kill, it's common courtesy."
 
she walked up past the group to where the keycard was supposed to be tapped, carefully she he lowered te card onto the machine and waited to see if the door opened.

Solosgar Solosgar
 
The door opens, to reveal...
The Nishiki. In a massive, dark laboratory.
It is surrounded by scaffolding, but nobody is in the room.
The group enters.

Mysterion
We approach the Nishiki.
I run one finger along the metal plating of the robot's armor. How could this massive robot have been defeated?

Frostbite
The Nishiki's pilot is waking up. Her pulse has gotten stronger, and you feel a single finger twitch.
Her eyes open, slightly. Then her eyes go wide. "Where..." Her voice is lighter without the voice filters built into the mech.
She suddenly jerks upright. "We have to get out of here! It's a-"
Bang!
A bullet, from an unseen gunman, hits her square in the forehead.

Mysterion
Wait, what the hell?
I spin around. Lights flash on throughout the lab. AVD gunmen are on ledges all over the room.
There's a pause.
Then, a sarcastic slow clap begins from one corner of the room.
A man walks into view.
Lord-Aizen-aizen-15163703-500-375.jpg
"You heroes are too predictable."
It's the man from the warehouse! The ringleader!
"It was easy, really. We left you a trail even a fool could follow. There were hints deposited all over the warehouse to get you to come here. Guard shifts were reduced, doors were just 'left open,' everyone was relocated so as to give you an easy ride. You walked right into our hands."
He smiles.
"Most people try to kill two birds with one stone. But this mission has been successful in three ways. First, we've gotten plenty of information out of your little friend about her technology. We'll be able to improve our gear much more. Second, we've got all of you here. You've been awfully active recently, haven't you? We've been keeping files on all of you."
I clench my fists. "You mean this was some kind of a sick game to you?"
The man laughs. "A game? Quite on the contrary. The third, and most important objective, was to recapture this woman." He points at the Nishiki's pilot. "She has a truly extraordinary ability. And we have a score to settle with her."
He points at one of the laboratory screens, and it lights up with an image of Nishiki's pilot.
"The truth is, she isn't a human. She's known as a Mental Model. In truth, she is an incredibly advanced construct with a human soul at its center. Her powers stem from what's known as her Core."

Another image appears on the screen.
"Her Core is contained within her body. It gives her the ability to control particles known as nanomaterials. She chose to fashion them into the Nishiki, making them much stronger but also causing her to lose her full manipulation of them. Her Core still grants her an incredible intellect, and she doesn't age like humans do. But the Nishiki's condition is dependent on hers."
The Nishiki's armor glows silver, and tiny particles flow from it to the pilot's forehead, slowly beginning to repair the gunshot.
"Harming the Nishiki doesn't do damage to her, because they are detached from the Core's control. But harming her has a drastic effect on the Nishiki."
Part of the Nishiki's shoulder armor disintegrates, before gathering over the pilot's head.
"However, if we can master this technology, we will have the power to defeat all villains. Of course, she's not being very cooperative, so we've been doing some forced trials. Now, lay down your weapons, and we'll give you cells that are next to one another."
I shake my head. "We're not giving up like that."
The heroes we've rescued tense up, prepared for a fight.
The man sighs. "Well, I didn't expect anything better from you. Attack!"

The battle has begun!
There are dozens of AVD soldiers, and the leader.
 
"GOD DAMN FUCKING AVD BASTARDS!" Leo shouts, infuriated, as covers himself in Ki and launches himself towards the AVD leader as fast as he can. He then pulls his arm back and goes in for a punch.
 
Bolt
Bolt shook his head gravely. All this time, Mysterion was right. Bolt was skeptical about the mission- but there was no need to be. This was horrifying. Abusing someone to near-death for their technology? Pathetic, and not in the least heroic. Up till this night, Bolt had always seen the AVD as the pillars holding up MegaMetro. But they weren’t. Unless... the heroes were. It was never the AVD.

“Oh, it’s on!” Bolt snarled.

He raged through the crowd of AVD soldiers. Bolt kicked one officer in the back. He zapped another in the face. Bolt stormed through. He stayed alert. Bolt took some damage. He was hit by several clubs. Blood poured down his body. Open wounds were scattered all over. Bolt finally caught the location of the leader. And that’s when it hit him.

This guy is the head scientist of the Department of Power Research.

Bolt had seen him many times at the facility. Heck, he had even talked to him before. He was pretty much the head honcho of the Department of Power Research, wasn’t he? A sick look of hatred fell across Bolt’s growling face as he approached the leader.

“FREEZE!” Bolt commanded, summoning two lightning bolts. “Surrender. Please this isn’t how things should go. You want to kill heroes for their powers? This is not the AVD I joined. It doesn’t have to be this way,” Bolt pleaded.

Frostbite
​
Shocked, he felt the bullet hit Nishiki's head, and he crumpled inside. He stood there though, seething as the head of the group of AVD officers explained the logistics behind Nishiki, and the pilot, how she wasn't even human. But that still doesn't change the fact that she was a person, saved his life, or was his friend. This wasn't going to happen without revenge.

Oh! And there were all these AVD officers around that he could just vent out his anger on? Perfect. There was plenty to go around now, and he began to coat the officers with waves of frost that coated the men with ice, their guns jamming and their skin cracking. Frostbite didn't care, the protectors of MegaMetro were just pretenders, grabbing for power and exploiting the true vigils of the city, the heroes. It wasn't to say that within the blasts of cold that a few officers attempted, and succeeded in yanking a few coolant cables, but they paid for each blow tenfold, a statue of ice in their place.
