Welcome to Gaia! ::

Raleigh nodded. "Thank you, ma'am. This'll help us immensly." He went back to the others and told them what he had found out.

"I want to help!" the vampire woman said.

"Me, too!" added the bull-man.

Every single Aberrant in the room chimed in with their offer for assistance.

Nearly fifty fists went into the air (along with some tentacles, spikes, and so forth).

Just then, a monitor in the corner indicated movement on the other side of the compound. The vampire-woman raced to it, and tapped in a command to get a status report.

"It's the underground garage! He's loading up the bombers! We've got to hurry!"

She races for the exit. Yuriko follows suit, buzzing out the door. "Move, everyone! We've only got a few minutes to catch them before they leave the Zone!"

The throng of Aberrants, all of them angry and wanting payback, chased after Alex and Yuriko, with the other Champions in hot pursuit.

"The garage is on the other side of the compound," Yuriko yelled out," but there's a lot in between here and there! The whole place twists and turns! We don't have a direct route, so we've got to..."

In response, a huge female, who appeared from her dreadlocks and facial structure to have been formerly Jamaican but now resembled living brick, charged to the front of the pack and slammed herself through one wall after another.

"You wanna direct path? You just gotta ask, sista!"

She continued her charge, barreling through toward the garage with the army in tow.

(Cookie to anyone who knows where that character came from.)

The brick woman looked back and smiled as she continued her juggernaut-like charge through the compound.

Moments later, they burst through the final wall leading into the garage, where several tour buses were being loaded with the living bombers. Felicia was among their numbers, fourth in line by the rightmost bus, patiently waiting her turn to board.

The dazed followers looked up at the declaration, as did the hooded figure in the flowing white robes. Still, no part of his body was visible.

"Whom do I have the pleasure of greeting?"
