"Good, good," Connor said. "Get everything powered up." He began to work his way from the other side of the room over.

Kurtis finished initializing everything and sat, placing his kinetic gun across his lap as he took a seat. "What now?" he asked.

[[Is back thanks to the magic of internet cafes! But nothing can change the timezones.]]

((Hooray, internet cafe! But what's this about timezones?
Actually, what's going on as a whole? I mean, with the long absence and all. If you don't mind my asking.))
Connor grinned. "You don't know what this facility is?"
There was a countdown that showed the approximate time until the entire hangar powered up. It had only a few seconds left on it.

[[I don't mind at all. I'm on a reaaaally short notice vacation to Vietnam which has a time-change of almost a whole day compared to North America. Not sure about Europe but that's the situation. I'm also pretty busy here so usually I don't have the opportunity to get internet until later in the day/night]]

"Enlighten me..." Kurtis replied impatiently, tapped his fingers on his gun's stock.

((Ohhh, wow. Jeez. OK then. Sorry to hear it.))
Connor's grin widened. "Just wait."
The timer let off a beep as it reached zero, and the lights began to turn on in progression. Kurtis' eyes widened in amazement as he beheld...
...a huge, huge hangar, filled with various parts and vehicles, all thrown about in a seemingly haphazard manner. Still, there was a pattern to it, as they were all centered around...
...OH MY GOD, WASTHATAGIANTFIGHTINGROBOT?!
"Yes. Yes it is," Connor said triumphantly to Kurtis, reading his expression.

"Clearly, that is in all ways our most effective potential method of escape, especially if it flies, can it fly?" Kurtis was almost stumbling over his own speech, so excited was he by the sight. It was everything he'd ever dreamed of in his childhood.

"Unfortunately, no," Connor said, painful regret etched on his face. He gazed longingly at the mech before continuing. "It's not complete, and it can hardly move. We'll have to take one of the transport trucks. The important part is that the far doors open out onto the mountainside."
He moved to hit a switch when they felt a light rumble. The Agents were trying to blow their way in.

Kurtis activated the power on everything he could find. "Can we load it INTO a transport truck?" he asked longingly.

"Not unless we had time to take it apart and move each piece, by crane, to a truck." Another rumble. "I think we'll barely have time to make it to a truck."
He gestured for Kurtis to follow as he ran out the door, running perpendicular to the main entrance towards a truck. Huge doors at the far end, about 1300 yards away, began to slowly open.

"Someday..." Kurtis said with a sigh, following Doctor Connor. He adjusted the kinetic gun to a tighter range and aimed at the door as he strafed to the truck.

"Someday, indeed," Connor murmured as they got in and he started the vehicle. The door was blown inwards as the Agents finally managed to make an entry.
Connor started to drive as the Agents fired on them. They made for a couple of other vehicles and began to give chase.
