2011/05/22 	 Flyne Grace Adler Imaginary Girl Jian Loupy Miles Fuchs Rampart 1

Jian returns to the basement office with the agents sent to collect the NG commandos. She waves to Grace and wanders over to where Miles is located. "Are you the same Miles Fuchs that the twins keep talking about?" she asks him.

Imaginary Girl, contacted via her old Starguard communicator, which she still has, arrives at the FBI officer's temporary office fairly quickly, being as she simply flies and avoids traffic and such. As she arrived at the federal building and was greeted by an agent other than Fuchs, she followed along and made her costume change... so that she's wearing one of those 'men in black' suits like she's seen FBI agents wear (or what he memories tell her she's 'seen on TV', in any event), including the sunglasses and very shiny patent leather shoes. The outfit, of course, appears on her in a perfectly-tailored form, covering her almost completely while still 'showing off' her figure.

Jian turns to look when someone enters, and grins as she sees a Man In Black.

Flyne arrives to the place with a bit of leaping and a bit of clinging. Flyne noticibly has its calf muscles expanded, and has claws with seemingly random shades of green. Flyne, on all fours, looks up at Jian and IG, and waves.

Lightray wanders into the officea few moments after IG with a bemused smile illuminating his features. He glances around the office as he enters.

Miles Fuchs is standing by a board detailing the organizational structure of Next Generation. He's pinning a photo of the NG Commander that the heroes battled to the board. He's wearing a shirt and tie, but with the tie loosened. To Jian, he says. "Hey. I suppose I am that Miles Fuchs."

Miles Fuchs is a middle-aged FBI agent. He's got dark hair that's starting to go grey. He's of a slim build. Despite his age, his features look rather youthful.

Jian waves back to Flyne, and then waves to Lightray. Looking back at Miles she nods, "Okay. I'll help out since the twinslike you. But I'm not a hero and I'm not on any hero team, okay. I'm just helping out."

Grace Adler is Miles's assistant. She's a few years older than Miles, with blonde hair that's turning white, and a rounder build. She's dressed in green today. "It looks like we have a few new faces today. Can I get everyone to sign in?"

"I'm a hero, and I'm here to help!", says the Imaginary Girl in Black, all smiles as she says it.

Flyne looks to Grace and simply asks, "Sign in? What is this?"

Miles nods to Jian. "Thanks. I'll take all the help I can get." He looks over to Imaginary Girl. "Imaginary Girl, thanks for coming."

Lightray returns Jian waves as he goes over to Ms Adler. He glances over the form then appends his signature to the end as Lightray. He then moves over to stand near Imaginary Girl.

Grace says to Flyne: "Just write your name on the PDA screen. I need to keep track of who's part of the force."

When offered the PDA, Imaginary Girl writes her name as "Asima" on the line in print that looks like that done by a fourth-grader child, then passes it on.

Flyne wonders over to Grace, and admits, "Flyne doesn't know how to write. Flyne can read, and knows how to spell its name, but cannot actually write it." Flyne likes speaking in third person from time to time.

Grace nods and says, "I can help you with that. How is it spelled? F-L-Y-N-N?"

Flyne shakes its head. "Flyne's name is spelled F-L-Y-N-E"

Miles says, "Ok. We've got a few things to cover here. I'll start with catching everyone up on the situation. The reason we're all here is because Next Generation has kidnapped the Chinese meta Quakezone. Quakezone has the ability to start earthquakes. We're trying to find her before Next Generation can do anything nasty with her abilities."

Jian sits on the corner of a desk to listen

Miles continues: "The only leads we have right now is a list of Next Generation targets that our tech guys are trying to decode. Quakezone was on the list, and so was Dr. Walter Kim. Thanks to you guys, we were able to stop Next Generation from kidnapping him.

Lightray listens attentively as Agent Fuchs speaks.

Imaginary Girl's there, at Agent Fuchs' temporary office... but she's wearing a movie-style 'men in black' suit, complete with sunglasses. The suits perfectly tailored to her, of course, and shows off her figure while still covering her almost completely.

"We did? I thought they /got/ him? That's what Guardian told me... that these Next Jenner guys grabbed a doctor-somebody?", Imaginary Girl asks, sounding a little bit confused.

Jian says, "Oh, that was me."

Miles nods to Imaginary Girl. "Jian, maybe you can fill in the others on what happened and what you were able to find out."

Loupy looks to Jian and then smirks at a theory forming in his head, along with a chuckle.

Flyne is on the floor, on four legs, with its green claws and large calf muscles near Grace. Flyne nods at Jian. Flyne looks at Loupy, then to Miles.

Jian nods, "Well, not much. I took Dr Kim's place and let them kidnap me. But there was a smart guy on the other end of a hypersite portal in the warehouse where the van went. They were oing to scan my DNA before letting me through. I can't fool that type of detector, so I captured the commandos and waited for the FBI to arrive."

Jian says, "Oh, the guy was wearing a mask and fiddling with a puzzle cube in his hands. One of the commandos called him Cubic, Kubrick, something like that."

Lightray murmurs in an rich accentless baritone, "The person on the other side is this Kubik on the organization chart?"

Jian grins, "Kubic. That's the name."

Jian adds, "I could see anything other than him. He was there in a holo image. So I don't know where he was.

Imaginary Girl nods her head, her confusion apparently gone after Jian's explanation, and quiets down, listening to what else gets said.

Miles says, "One of the Next Generation commandos has agreed to speak with investigators. Here's what we were able to get out of him:"

Flyne sits down on floor at its current spot, and continues to listen.

Miles says: "His team was assigned the task of kidnapping Dr. Kim. Had they succeeded, they would have brought them to their safehouse, where Kubik would have opened a Hypersite gate, allowing them to send Kim through. It's not clear what's on the other side of the gate - we're guessing that it's the location of Next Generation's base."

Loupy rubs the back of his neck and then grunts, "We're talking dimensional shifting, not just teleportation or is it safe to assume they're still on this dimension someheres?"

Jian shrugs, "I don't know. Those Hypersite portals are dangerous. They lose people to other dimensions without even trying sometimes."

"Hypersite thingies sound dangerous!", comments Imaginary Girl, hands resting on her hips as she nods her head as if to add emphasis to her statement of the obvious.

Miles says to Loupy, "Still on this dimension, as far as we can tell. That's how Hypersite portals are designed to work - open a portal between two points on Earth. It's not as safe as Transmat, but portable and still pretty useful."

Lightray looks over at Jian then back to Agents Fuchs. He then quietly asks, "Why has this commando chosen to speak up?"

Loupy rolls his eyes and says, "Which makes it hard to track'em... Anyhows, sorry about that. Please continue."

Flyne nods at Miles. Flyne is curious, "Is it possible to use the to go to different demensions?"

Miles says to Lightray, "The US Attorney offered him a deal and he took it."

Miles shrugs in response to Flyne. "I've learned on this job to never say that something is impossible. There are probably only a handful of people capable of modifying a Hypersite gate to go interdimensional, and none of them seem to be working with Next Generation."

Flyne nods at this.

Miles Fuchs says: "The Next Generation commando is available for questioning, if you have anything else that you want to ask him. As is Dr. Kim."

Jian tells everyone, "I'll go and talk to Tim Lee's exiles. They might not like me but they ought to help one of their own. Oh, and if NG generation are wanting to kidnap geneticists, the Baron's name might by on the list." She grins, "Good luck with that. My dad's in charge of the Baron's security."

"Any idea why these people wanted to kidnap the doctor? Are some of their people sick, or something?", Imaginary Girl asks, clearly no realizing that Dr. Kim's not a /medical/ doctor.

Loupy shakes his head and then looks to Imaginary Girl. "Different kind of doctor," before looking to Miles. "So what's the game plan? And I suppose if you could show me where they had the gate, I might be able to track where it goes if that'll help."

"Dr. Kim is geneticist, and one of the top men in a specific field," Miles says. He walks over to his desk to fetch a sheet which he quickly reviews. "His specialty is nano-genetic recombination. From what I understand it involves introducing new genetic code into mature test subjects and rewriting their bodies to match the new code."

Lightray inquires, "Was the kidnapping entire team captured?"

Miles nods to Lightray. "Yes."

Imaginary Girl nods, slightly puzzled at Loupy's words, at first... then nodding again when Miles explains more precisely what Kim's specialty is. "So... he gives people superpowers?", she wonders, aloud.

Lightray looks at the organization chart. "And none of the others has volunteered any information, correct? Did the commando who talked give us the names, even first names of any of his other team members?"

Aika ends up shuffling inside the room looking like she woke up not that long ago. Either that or she's now a zombeh wuff. Regardless after entering she looks around for a few moments until she spots Loupy and moves over to where he is.

Miles says to Imaginary Girl, "His research is limited to curing genetic defects in lab animals, but he's made groundbreaking strides in that pursuit."

Miles nods to Lightray: "We have the names of the commando team."

Pouting a little, as if deep in thought - and with her hands still on her hips - Imaginary Girl wonders, again aloud, "... so why do these Jenner people want him? I'd have thought they'd want him so they could give their people the same powers this Earthquake person has, so they could make their own earthquakes whenever they wanted to."

Loupy looks to her and smiles, slipping an arm around her waist when she's close enough and just holds her close as he looks to everyone else. "Why would they grab a geneticist and an earthquake meta?" frowning a bit, musing to himself as he thinks aloud. "Is there other people on their list or other disappearances?"

Flyne hmms..."Maybe they were overestimating the Dr's abilities? Or perhabs they wanted him to study Quakezone and see what he could have learned...?"

Lightray looks over at Imaginary Girl. "Sadly, Next Generation is dominated by people who long ago lost sight of the concept of aiding mankind thorugh science, Asima. They seem deidicated to pushing the edges of genetic science for a variety of, at best, selfish reasons."

"Imaginary Girl may be onto something there." Miles says. "We've managed to decode the next name on the Next Generation list: Andre Talbot."

Loupy asks, "And how is he significant?"

Aika goes :| when Loupy doesn't greet her and ends up chomping on him. Luckily she doesn't actually use teeth and instead just whines at him. Getting woke up when she's trying to catch up on sleep and she doesn't even get a hug?

Flyne idly asks, "Do you think we're going to need to help make sure NG doesn't get Andres?"

"Not sure," Miles says. "Talbot lives down in Atlanta, with a retail job and no apparent ties to Next Generation. I'd like for you guys to go down and talk with him and potentially escort him back here."

Flyne nods at this, and stands up, on two legs. Flyne asks, "What did the Commando say when being interrogated? What did we learn?"

"Pardon me, I need my arm back love," to Aika and smiles to her as he pulls his arm back, reaching into his pocket and producing a PDA, scanning for something...

"Not a lot, Flyne," Miles says. "Next Generation organizes its teams into cells, with each cell only possessing the information it needs to do a specific job. The commando knew that they had to nab Dr. Kim and turn him over to Kubik. Not much more than that, though."

Loupy snaps his PDA closed and announces, "I can teleport everyone straight to his address if need be. No travel time at all.

Miles nods. "Before you guys take off -- make sure that you each get a communicator."

Flyne turns around and looks at Loupy. "This is awesome." Flyne smiles, well, it would if could it had facial expressions. Flyne looks to Miles, then looks for the said communicators.

Lightray looks over at Loupy and Aika then back to Agent Fuchs as he speaks. The faintly glowing hero goes over and picks up one of the communicators and after chekcing to make certain it works, puts it into a pouch on his belt.

Flyne looks around a bit, then takes note of them. Flyne walks over to the table they are on, and climbs ontop of the table. Flyne procedes to get one of the communicators, then gets down. Flyne examines the communicator.

Loupy gestures and two of the communicators just float up by will alone towards him and he takes them from the air, before turning to offer one over to Aika as he asks, "You know, you don't have to go..." but still he offers it to her.

Flyne looks at the communicator, and shakes it a bit, proceeding to rotating many times trying to figure out how it works. Flyne obviously doesn't realize how it works.

Miles offers a file to Loupy. "Here's the information that we were able to look up on Talbot."

"I'm here now there ain't no way I'm goin' home," Aika huffs as she takes the communicator and fixes it inside her ear. Good thing they thought of such 'cause she doesn't have pockets, a belt or clothes period.

Picking up one of the earbud communicators, Imaginary Girl pulls another out of her ear, replacing it with the newly-acquired one. She then puts the older one down. "That's one of the Starguard communicator-thiniges", she says. "But... I don't think anyone really uses them much, anymore."

Lightray kneels down next to Flyne. After alooking at the communicator for a moment, he murmurs to the little green alien. "Hmm, I think you will represent a challenge for the boffins. No ears, no clothes." He smiles at Flyne.

Flyne smells Aika putting the communicator in her ear, and Flyne tries doing the same. Flyne looks at the transmitter, and sticks it in its mouth for now. It noticibly lacks siliva and teeth.

Imaginary Girl's 'man in black' costume melts away and turns back into her usual 'superhero' costume. "All set!", she says to Loupy.

Lightray goes to stand beside Loupy and Aika.

Flyne then notes it'll be hard to talk with the transmitting in its mouth. Flyne stands near Loupy. "How does Flyne attach this to Flyne?" Flyne asks, the transmitter in hand.

"Put it in your ear", says, Imaginary Girl, pointing at her own ear, where she put hers.

"Alright then... this is going to be a bit rough as it's a long range spell so take a moment to get your bearings when we arrive," as he produces a small jade ring from his pouch, then pauses when Flynn asks that. He holds for the moment, then looks to Aika and says, "want me to hold onto the transmitters then?" looking to Aika and Flynne both as they have a simliar problem, no pockets.

Flyne tries placing the transmitter in it's other ear...and fails...

Aika makes a T.T expression when she realizes there's a second part to the transmitter. "I'm really getting tired of them assuming everybody has CLOTHES to put these on," huffs the werewolf girl as she hands it to Loupy.

Flyne looks at its claws. Has an idea. Flyne tries breaking off one of its claws, and manages to do so. Flyne takes the sticky claw and attachs it to the transmitter, and sticks it on its back...hopefully it'll stick and stay there...

Lightray murmurs, "The inherent drawback of the dominant species needing them I suppose..."

Imaginary Girl picks up a little wristband that's on the table, sticking the minimicrophone into it before strapping the band to her wrist. Clearly, she was shown how to do that, at some point.

Flyne's bond doesn't stick.

Miles chuckles a bit. "Sorry folks, FBI standard issue doesn't seem to meet our unique need."

"Mine fits, but it won't last long... probably get messed up first time I get into a fight. Maybe y'all can make some like Starguard's, where it's just the little thing that goes in your ear but still lets you talk through it?", Imaginary Girl suggests.

Flyne nods at Miles. "Flyne isn't sure what Flyne is going to do with this." Flyne states, clearing refering to the transmitter.

Loupy blinks a bit as Flyne gets creative, then juse gestures real quick and picks up the transmitter from Flyne's possession, putting it in the same pouch as with his and Aika's transmitters. "Just easier this way.. long range teleport, so get your bearings before trying to go anywheres, it'll be a bit of a doozy." He closes his eyes and starts incanting in latin, his paw closing on the jade ring to mask the light it gives off... a light that grows to encompass everyone within 4m of him... then a moment later, those that are willing, will be transported...

Flyne jumps and turns to Loupy as the transmitter is stolen from it. It sighs and shrugs. Flyne is willing to be teleported.

Miles says to Imaginary Girl. "I'll see what I can do." He gestures around the office. "But you might be able to see that we're not the top priority on the bureau's spending list..."

Flyne's missing claw regrows.

An office in the basement of the Marshall Federal Building on York Boulevard in Colonial Bay. The room has no windows all of the light is provides from fluorescent tubes on the ceiling. The room is not fancy at all. The walls are cinder blocks, painted over in a yellowish cream color. Exposed water pipes run along the ceiling. The office is large enough for three desks and a handful of chairs. One of them belongs to Miles Fuchs, another to Grace Adler. The third desk is open.

Adrian Talbot's home address is an apartment building in a quiet residential neighborhood in Atlanta. It just so happens that Mr. Talbot is walking home along the sidewalk, carrying a couple of shopping bags.

Aika ends up latching onto the other werewolf when they finish teleporting. Must not hurl must not hurl!

Flyne drops to four feets, shakes a bit, then seems to be fine. It stays on four legs.

Adrian Talbot's home address is an apartment building in a quiet residential neighborhood in Atlanta. It just so happens that Mr. Talbot is walking home along the sidewalk, carrying a couple of shopping bags...

Adrian Talbot is a Black man in his early thirties with an athletic build. As soon as the heroes appear, he drops his groceries in shock. "I don't know how you found me..." he begins, "But you're not getting me without a fight!" And with that a blue light flares up around him, like a force field. His clothes shift into a skintight blue and black uniform with mask. He turns and leaps into the air, travelling 30m away from the heroes while they are recovering.

Imaginary Girl closes and opens her eyes a few times as she and the others appear... then looks up into the sky. "Hey! Wait! We came to keep those Jenner guys from kidnapping you!", she calls out...

Loupy grunts at that and says, "Wasn't expecting this already..." as he gestures, a glass bead appearing in his fingers and then shattering as he incants in latin, gesturing towards the running meta.

A masked man in a blue and black skintight costume. He's surrounding by a field of blue energy.

Jolt sighs a bit as she flies up too "Dont tell me you're gonna make us knock you the hell out just so we can talk to you" yeah she's been getting tired of having to do everything the hard way lately.

"Rampart!", Imaginary Girl calls out, "We're not here to take you in! We're here to keep super-terrorists from kidnapping /you/!"

Flyne leaps, aiming to get near the person.

Flyne lands next to Rampart. "We aren't trying to harm you, we wish to assit. It's obvious you know someone's after you, but it isn't us. The guys you should worry about are in large metal sutis." Flyne comments.

Talbot AKA Rampart says, "You're outta your Imaginary mind, if you think I'm gonna fall for that!"

Flyne, in all irony of the fact it comes from a miltant

Flyne says, "Just let us talk for a few minutes. We have no intent on harming you."

"If you don't believe me, believe this... I won't chase you down, even though you /know/ I could catch you", Imaginary Girl adds, hands on her hips, her feet on the ground. "You just hear me out, and if you don't wanna come with us and let us keep /you/ safe, we'll go away", she says, lifting one hand from a hip to hold in the air. "Scout's honor!", she adds, solemnly.

Rampart looks over towards Imaginary Girl. "You might be able to catch me, but then what?" he says with a smirk. "I'm willing to bet I'm just as tough." Rampart maintains a combat-ready stance. "Ok. You've earned yourself a few seconds. I'm listening."

Imaginary Girl says, looking around at the others who came with her. "Hold up... he'll talk, and we're /gonna/ do like I said, too!", she says, the last in an almost-lecturing tone of voice. "We fill him in, and if he don't wanna come with us, we go away. Got it?"

Loupy sighs in relief and then mentally prepares a differnt spell, producing a bit of jade like before. A quick phrase and he's gone from where he was standing, the werewolf reappearing a couple meters from Rampart. "First off, our apologies for the sudden arrival. We didn't intend to startle you," holding a paw out, palm up in a concillary gesture. "The second is that a group calling themselves the new generation has been kidnapping people, and your name came up on their list. We're here on behalf of the FBI, and we would like to invite you back so we can figure out why they have an interest in you."

Flyne looks to IG. "Should I explain why where're here?" Flyne asks.

Rampart shakes his head, disappointed at something. "Next Generation, huh? They know my secret identity." He turns as Loupy appears next to him as well. It doesn't rattle him though - he seems more confident than jumpy right now.

Imaginary Girl, for her part, sits down... by the simple expedient of lifting her feet off the ground in the process of crossing her legs to 'sit' in mid-air. "We wanna keep you from getting kidnapped by terrorists, just like I said... we're not here to take you in or nothing, and I won't let anyone do anything bad to you while I'm protecting you, if you'll let me. That's a promise", she adds, though she gives Loupy a look that speaks of her NOT being happy with him teleporting around like that... in a way that could /so/ easily be seen as an aggressive action. "Everyone... c'mon back here by me. We're /not/ here to fight. We're here to talk and, if he'll let us, keep him safe", she adds, this time clearly speaking to Flyne and Loupy. "Yeah, please tell him what's up, too. He needs to know, 'cause earthquakes don't care who's who... they just break stuff and hurt people."

"Yeah, please tell him what's up, too. He needs to know, 'cause earthquakes don't care who's who... they just break stuff and hurt people." (re: for Flyne, in case he missed when he poofed for mousiness)

Jolt nods some and smiles a bit "Well any day I dont have to zap someone who we should be on friendly terms with is a good day" she's kinda glad she didnt have to zap some sense into the guy.

Loupy nods to IG and then looks to Rampart as he says, "A short time ago the New Generation succeeded in kidnapping two people, one a chinese earthquake meta, the other a geneticist. Thankfully the FBI had a dopplganger take the doctors place ahead of time so they grabbed the wrong one by mistake, and through that we got a lead. Your next on their list supposedly.."

Flyne nods. Flyne's claws become nonexistant and legs return to normal as it grows wings, then takes to the air. "The group 'New Generation' wants to capture you and do things with you, what they exactly are planning isn't certain, but it's obviously nothing good." Flyne explains.

Rampart says to Imaginary Girl: "I don't need your protection - I can handle myself. And if it's Next Generation, I know why they want me: they gave me my powers. I used to work for them, until I decided to take my act freelance."

Loupy scratches his muzzle in thought at that revelation and then looks to IG, to see where she wants to go with that...

Flyne tilts its head a bit. "The lot of us together had a bit of a tough time dealing with them. I wouldn't imagine one person wouldn't be nearly as tough."

"Well, can you help us try to fill in the blanks on what we don't know, at least? We honestly didn't know who you were til you changed like that, when you saw us - /that/ wasn't why we came here. We really /did/ just come to try and keep you from getting grabbed by them", Imaginary Girl adds by way of reply to Rampart.

Rampart shakes his head. "Can't help you. I've been out of the loop for too long. But if any thing is going on, I'd be willing to bet that Dr. Richards is involved."

Flyne asks, "Who is Dr Richard?"

"Well... I guess we'll leave you alone like I promised, then", Imaginary Girl says, then tries again: "... you /sure/ you won't come with us, let us keep these terrorist people from trying to kidnap you and stuff?"

Rampart is quiet for a moment, before he says, "Ok. I'm going to go with you. Not because I need the protection..." He looks to Loupy and asks, "You're serious about Next Generation capturing someone with earthquake powers?"

Loupy nods at that. "No lie." He pulls out from his pouch a bit more jade and then looks into it for a moment, murmuring, "I'm going to need more of that here soon..." to himself before holding it in his paw. "Is there anything you need from here before we go?" looking to Rampart.

Rampart says, "I got an interest in making sure there are no earthquakes in the area. Yeah, there's something I gotta check on. And I gotta do it alone."

"I thought you were coming with us?", Imginary Girl asks. "You want us to wait here for you to get back? Want some backup or something?", she offers.

Loupy grunts at that and says, "Considering the threat, wouldn't it be wise to take at least someone? If I go we can teleport out before they get a chance to do anything."

Angstrom looks around at the group of heroes. "I don't want to draw too much attention where I'm going."

Rampart looks around at the group of heroes. "I don't want to draw too much attention where I'm going. Yeah, you can come, but we gotta go in civilian clothes."

Imaginary Girl unfolds her legs, putting her feet on the ground, her costume melting/morphing into jeans, sneakers, and a t-shirt. Not that doesn't still catch the eye, even dressed like that, of course. "No problem!", she says.

Loupy says, "I might have a problem with civilian clothes.. but I do have an alternative..." as he puts the jade back and replaces it with a bit of amber and an eyelash stuck in it. "Eh, I know, old school..." as he holds it up a moment, then mutters in Latin... a moment later, he's gone from sight, completely... the only trace of his presence still is his pawprints in the grass when he steps closer to the street and the grass planted there."

Flyne is actually here too! "How is Flyne going to 'blend in'?"

Rampart's energy field flares and then fades away. He changes back to his normal clothes. He starts to explain: "I need to check on my brother. He's in a bed over at Atlanta General."

Loupy pages: also loupy /can/ heal people... do you want to have him even bring that up to Rampart when they get to the hospital?

Flyne asks, "Do you have any ideas for me comming along?"

Rampart says, "I guess you can, tag along... just wait outside the hospital."

Flyne nods. "Can do."

Aika pages: Oh well.

The scene outside Atlanta General Hospital is a bit chaotic. At a glance something is up. Patients and medical staff are outside of the building waiting around and looking back to the hospital building. A single plume of smoke trails from hospital. The source looks to be a hospital room where the window has been blasted out. There are local police on the scene.

Rampart, now back in his civilian clothes begins to shake his head. "No... no no no no no..."

Aika peers up at the smoking window and rolls her eyes as she says, "Go figure."

Loupy will disappear once more... invisible, and teleporting to the windowsill of the room in question with full life support active. With his spells all locked up like that he has no offensive ability... but he still has his radio.

What's inside the room is probably not as important as what's not inside the room. There's a bed that looks like it was until recently occupied by a patient. It's now empty, with leads connecting to iv systems and life monitoring equipment hanging disconnected.

The smoke seems to be from a flash-bang grenade that was detonated in the room recently. Char marks are on the door into the room and on the walls near it.

Aika isn't going to go running along when she's this.. uh.. yeah. She's just going to wait until Loupy finishes his little voyeur thing and tells them what's going on via the radio.

Loupy says, "Looks like someone dropped a flash bang here, not seeing anyone at the moment. They could be in the hospital still."

Loupy says that into the radio and then hops down into the room, already using his nose to sniff around. "Tracking," to the radio as well. (( and I'm gonna go eat that enter key here... brb. ))
