Eulalia Danae The guard had broken through the sticky ground as Alloran and the last stragglers were heading for the exit. The first guard reached for his communicator, but when he found it was broken he started yelling for the second guard to run back for reinforcements. The remaining two guards chased after Alloran and the slaves. They tried shooting their guns, but when they found it didn't work they tossed them to the side. As the second guard ran, Silent Lucidity flew after him, and shot him with a power-inhibiting round. [mp9, sp4, lp50, ammo 9]

Sahaqiel Devon was wandering the streets of Union City, and noticed Erica and Lucidity. He approached them with a smile. "And what are you two doing out during this hour? Didn't you know there's a raid going on?" He looked down to Ashura and smiled. "Oh dear..." He said cockily. "Someone else has killed him again. He looked to Erica and could see her distraught look. "So that makes two of us then." He held his hand out to her and said "My name is Devon, Devon Reed."

Devon took his hand away and looked at her. "Well yes he did return. Once. But it wasn't his own doing." He looked at her and sized her up. "Soltari? As in Oralia Soltari? You look like her. And Ashura came back as something that the government liked to call Umbra, but he somehow found a way to bypass all the blocks that they put on him. Once he was found out, I was sent here to get rid of him, but looks like you did that for me. What lead you to do so?"

Garret glanced at Devon, then looked at Erica. "Or...you could...just..ignore me..." He mumbled as he shuffled his feet in a way that looks comical in less somber occasions.

The teleporting super Ashura had assigned to take A.C. back to AA HQ hadn't done his job. He'd taken one look at her, figured out she was human and on the verge of death, and said to himself, "I'd rather she just die. I can say she died mid-teleportation, and no one'll ever know." He'd dumped her in, well, a dumpster. Like most dumpster in the City, it was in an alley, and no one was likely to see her last moments, nor was she likely to come out of Ashura's sleep and call for help for something.
So in the depths of her dreams A.C. rested, slowly dying alone and unseen. Her final contact with the world around her was the sound of it, which crept into her hears to trouble her subconscious as it dreamed her life before her eyes. At the end, when it had nothing left to play back for her and nothing else to do but quiet itself and keep her company unto death, it took these sounds and built a vision for her of slaves, fights, and Ashura's own final moments.
Her passive mind was oddly tranquil about it all, even the man's death and the telling of his story. She had no feeling for him, although she would once have found it at least a little interesting, maybe amusing in a grim way. Now the only care she could spare was for Lucidity, whose reaction to her business with the table she would never see, who would never know who had at last foiled him and flinched his old merchandise. More than that, since she would never see her dungeon after all, she had a lingering and wholy unexpected wish to apologize. Such is what comes of being raised right, even if one didn't know it at the time... No longer able to think, it was just what she felt. Seeing your life again through the wisdom of greater age puts a whole new perspective on things...

Garret Erikson "No, I'm not ready to die yet." He said, releasing his grip. "Not until I get some revenge." He placed his hand on her arm to turn her towards him. "Think you could help me there?" ((Darnit, I totally missed this.....)) Erica gave Lucid an odd look, "What type of vengence are you talking about?"

[mp9, sp4, lp50, ammo 9] Shot in the leg, the guard was slowed and de-powered, giving them some time, but he still moved towards the guard room, shouting at the top of his lungs.

"I got captured by some soldiers at Pheonix..." Garret began. "Those damned super-sensing devices. I'm just a former shell of myself..." He muttered. "And I'm no longer Lucidity..."
He paused for a few moments. "I want your help so that I can get my powers back. I think that if I can find the source of Pure Energy...I can get them back."

((Oh, and Larissa, to avoid confusion, make sure you always call her Silent Lucidity, or just Silent so everyone knows who your talking about. It'd be wierd if you mentioned Lucidity changing bra's or something... xd ))

Alloran fired two rounds at the guards as he noticed Silent doing the same, continuing to run with the slaves, who had just made it to the wall, and were quickly traversing across.

As Alloran crossed the wall he was met with an interesting sight....or more like a lack of interesting sight because both his truck and Ruby were nowhere to be seen. There was however a bullet casing on the ground, a few drops of blood if he looked closely, and the tracks of the slaves leading towards the position where his truck used to be.

The guards, now powerless stopped their chase and instead headed towards the HQ, to inform the AoS of the raid. They hoped they would get there in time to respond to the situation.
