Dragon Fist turned toward the oncoming gunmen, and let loose a gust of wind, intending on knocking them off their feet.

Mr. Fade prepared his rifle ensuring the optic zoom scope was properly calibrated he extended the stand and took aim at the only way out of the building. Heroes were to squishy to ensure the deaths of those who needed it most. So it was his duty now to ensure the Builder's justice was absolute.

All around, everyone could see the semblance of fog in the area. A light mist, which soon manifested itself in the form of Ju-Long, The Mist Dragon.

A look of focused anger was on his face as he immediately went to work dismantling the robots that were fighting the New Age Defenders.

Dragon Fists air blast sends five of the guards flying backwards knocking them unconscious but more were still coming.

Ozzy kept his saw going with one hand, hoping to get the door to pop open soon. Jack moving didn't even register as he had to turn his attention to the new wave of oncoming guards! With his other hand, he started firing paint-arrows, hoping to at least get some covering fire down, to buy him some more time!

The lock pops open and Ozzy manages to get the bars open.

While Ozzy worked on the door and getting them out, Dragon Fist continued to use the blast of air to attempt to keep the guards at bay.

  Candy told Ozzy "You worry about them, tell me when you got them both."  And she brought up a SHEET of fire between them and the guards.  It was about to be HOT in there.

Jack blinked and looked around. "Guys? Oh thank god your here." He stood shakily and moved towards the door he looked like he'd been hurt bad. "Where's Penny?"

  Her dry answer was only audible in his own mind.  {{You weren't awake, so I was getting you in gear.  I don't know how to turn your field on, love.}}  He was, he realized, upright and moving, and he'd had his eyes closed a moment ago.

{{Penny can you get back in your body? We need to get out of here.}}

  He felt her reach, and heard a distinctly pissed {{No.  Not right now.  He's got dampeners on me, and until we shut them off, I'm stuck hiding in yours.  There's enough tie to keep the brainstem working, but I can't fully move in again without setting off the shock collar attached as well.}}

"Sorry it took us so long to find you. We found Penny hooked up to some weird thing, but I dunno if she's responding... Anywho, let's get you out of here! Candy, can you port Penny and Jack to safety?" asked Ozzy as he turned, bringing up a shield just in case Dragon Fist's air blasts didn't work twice.

"Not yet." Jack said as they started talking about porting them out. "We need to find the Builder first. We need to find out what he did to Penny."

"The Builder does indeed need to be found," Mist Dragon said solemnly as he misted amongst the others. "He has much to answer.....his evil ends today."

  {{You're going to have to tell them I'm in YOUR head, or they may never get all the dampeners off, love.  I can't get through the fields, he made the blasted things with ME as a research subject when he designed them.  They're fine tuned to keep me locked in my head, or out of everyone else's.}}

"We've got to find out how to get the dampeners off her. She's not in her head right now, she's in mine."

"Whoah, whoah, whoah. Hold up. If we off the Builder, then doesn't that mean Jack's doomed to a life of being a fugitive? If we can't prove he didn't do it, then short of a presidential pardon, he's screwed, last I heard! Did I miss a memo?" said Ozzy, hoping to make them see reason. He wanted the Builder gone as much as the next guy, but sometimes logic had to triumph.

Jack growled a bit. "He's right...We need him alive...for now."

"Yes...we still need him to clear Jack..." Dragon Fist added. "His evil is repulsive, of that there is no doubt. But right now, we need him...Jack needs him....if he is to have any hope of a normal life."

"Very well.." Mist Dragon replied. "A Shaolin normally does not advocate the taking of a life, but this Builder has done much evil. Now he has the chance to do good and clear Jack of his crime, though he may not know it."

  Candy asked "Okay, so we're not done here yet.  Where to?  Left, right, or to the front?"

Ozzy breathed a sigh of relief, "Good. Now, let's find him and bring him in, shall we? Once Jack's cleared, if the government proves predictably unreliable at holding the Builder, we can always off him when he gets out. Or, Hell, I'll sneak into the prison and shank him or something."

  Andy rumbled from the back "If they won't send him to prison, I might unbend my principles enough to blink in and rip him into very small, bloody slivers and fling the bits all over the walls of his chosen location of repose."

"I don't know where he's holed up in here. Anyone got locating powers?"
