Flash Bang:
Flash continued his combat roll off the tackled robot, with the intent of using his momentum to continue a run towards the Flame Witch.
But then, the wall of fire came rolling his way. In a minor, controlled panic, Flash dove to the left to avoid the heatwave, hoping to get behind an abandoned forklift there.
- rolled 9 using 2d6+2 with rolls of 2,5. Agility to avoid fire wall.
(09:37, Today: The GM rolled 1 using 1d2 ((1)).
Buzz takes 1 new damage.)
Buzz Corey:
Realizing that her cover will be blown with her next shot, Buzz decides to make it count. She does what she can to use the mech suit's weapon fire at the Flame Witch. Hopefully, the virus doesn't impede the function of the suit's offensive capabilities.
BZORCH. A powerful laser burst blasts out from the mech suit's main weapon.
It hits the Flame Witch's left arm, and her left forearm disappears in a cauterizing sizzle of energy.
Horrified, she uses her remaining right hand to touch one of her earrings, and she disappears.
"Short-range teleporter!" shouts Dr. Cagliostro.
"I--"
An alarm starts going off.
"WARNING. WARNING. HANGAR BAY IS ABOUT TO OPEN. ALL PERSONNEL MUST LEAVE AREA OR BE WEARING PROTECTIVE GEAR. WARNING."
There's about 2 seconds while this sinks in, and then all the cultployees panic (even more than they were already panicking). About a third of them head for the airlock. Another third of them run for protective suits hanging over by the walls.
The rest are smarter-- they all scramble to get into the various spaceships in the hangar bay (except the one to which the Danger Patrol agents are standing closest to).
Most of the robots attack the cultployees who are scrambling for the protective gear.
Some of the robots attack the cultployees who are trying to get on board ships.
The cultployees trying to get in the airlock are the least-attacked, except that they're attacking
each other to frantically be the ones lucky enough to get into the airlock before it's too late.
"She's teleported into one of these ships!" shouts Dr. Cagliostro.
"Based on these readings, I think it was the one that was right behind her! But hold on just a second!" She does something with the device in her hands...
(10:02, Today: The GM, on behalf of Dr. Cleopatra Cagliostro, rolled 8 using 2d6+1 ((5,2)).)
"UGH, that's not what I'd hoped for!" shouts the doc.
"I tried to hack her ship long enough to delay her taking off so we could board her ship-- I don't think there's time, even if all these stupid robots weren't attacking! All I did was delay it! I think our best bet is to get on this ship here that's closest to us! Any objections...?!"
"Not from me!" shouts Johnny, glancing at Buzz and Flash...
