With no objections to his idea, Continuum packs the explosives and plans into his satchel and begins heading towards the base with the rest of the group.

"Tell you what, let me scope the place out for potential collateral damage. I'll go in as a kid, or an old lady, or some such, or if need be, as a mosquito. If the place is clear of girlfriends, kids, or hangers-on, we can bring the whole place down guilt free."
Enkidu, once you get close to the site you'd probably decide you'd need to go in a a mosquito, the security is so tight. There are a few women hanging around, but they seem to be as involved in the men in the gang operations.
Alpha, Beta, and Gamma wait for Enkidu's return, each taking a watchpoint to call out potential patrols or ambush points they may not have seen coming.
Looking the place over, Enkidu decides if he wants to see the inside, it will likely have to be as an insect. Contrary to what he said earlier, he doesn't think a Mosquito would be a good idea; it might look natural, but then, getting slapped at that size would not be fun. He thinks for a moment and instead opts for a Ladybug (or Ladybird, if you prefer). Pretty, innocuous, and generally considered good luck, he'd be about the same size, but much less likely to end up under a book or roll of newspaper.
Once transformed, he headed for the building's upper windows, looking for an opening.
After his trip, Enkidubug flies back to HQ and let's the others know what he has found.
"Were you able to get inside?"
Enkidu describes the layout of the building in detail, sketching a pretty detailed map.
What do you all do now?
"Looks like there will be minimal opportunity for collateral damage. We can take the gloves off. Getting in position to plant the bombs may be tricky though.
"It's not getting into position that's a problem, it's getting caught, but we can't fight a revolution by hiding under our beds, now, can we. I'll go start placing the explosives. If I run into trouble, I'll come back here."
with that, Continuum shoulders the bag with the explosives and then teleports to the first location.
Alpha, Beta, and Gamma watch as Continuum moves to enact the plan.
"Demolitions are being set, hopefully the target's inside and not ready for us. We should be ready to move in to finish the target off if neccessary."
Continuum, please make a Smarts roll at -4 for teleporting to a place you've never been to before.
How far away from the building are you all? There's guards and sentries out to a 100 foot radius.
Angel will take a position atop a nearby building.
Assuming you're teleporting to the basement, where you can plant the charges on the foundation, checking to see if anyone's there when you appear :
Nope, you're safe for now.
Continuum, what do you do now?
Are you walking from location to location to plant the explosives, or 'porting?
Alpha, Beta, and Gamma will copy Angel's flight abilities and be positioned on the perimeter.
That is, if she'll let him.
So, Continuum manages to plant the explosives without incident. Assuming he teleports back to the group (no roll needed), what do you all do now?
"Wings are so....odd, when you're not flying. How do you manage?" Gamma asks Dark Angel.
"It is difficult, but one adjusts after a while. I much prefer the feel of the open sky, with my wings spread wide to catch the currents."
So, you electronically set off the explosives. There's a deep rumble, and you feel the ground vibrate beneath your feet (those of you on the ground, that is). Almost in slow-motion, the building simply...falls straight down into the ground.
Virtually no one got out of the building before it collapsed, but the outside guards are panicking like crazy - running around, looking for someone to shoot, etc.
What else do you want to do?
"This is Alpha. Ground forces are scrambling but now movement at ground zero. Should we commence picking off the perimeter or circle the area to ensure prime directive has been destroyed?"
Enkidu and Continuum, anything in particular you want to do?
[OOC]Nothing special.[ooc]
Enkidu will drop down off the building, and maul the guard below him, while waiting to see if the mark blasts himself free of the rubble.
He shifts into the shape of a gryphon, and lands with talons extended.
Finding the first armed person he sees that survived the explosion, Continuum will walk up to him and say "Are you okay friend? That looked aweful." before blasting him.
Enkidu shreds the gaurd, while Continuum's shot just makes his man angry, so he pulls his weapon and fires :
Which Shakens Continuum.
Yes, but dealing with the imminent approach of a hurricane at the moment. Will try to post tomorrow.
"Moving in to engage."
Which then Alpha and Beta will begin to dive, their guns ready and will fire when possible on Enkidu's (if not decmiated then Continuums) target ( and if not that then just random survivor guards).
Alpha's and Beta's targets are Shaken, and cannot return fire right now.
Dark Angel descends upon one of the surprised guards, swinging her flaming sword.
[AP2]
Angel's attack leaves her foe Shaken as well.
Enkidu flies over to the pile of rubble and debris settling from the imploded building. He shifts as he lands, solidifying in the shape of a 8 ft tall bipedal dinosaur. As a Utah Raptor, he starts using his bloodhound like sense of smell to look for potential survivors.
Continuum again blasts the man, all manner of joviality gone.
Continuum, you were left Shaken, so please make a Spirit roll to act this time (not that it matters this time, but you might be left Shaken for next time).
Enkidu, what are you doing with the survivors (saving them, interrogating them, killing them, etc.)?
