So you want to leave this building to its fate of destruction as well as those remaining in danger?

Yes, but didn't it seem like some sort of reality or dimension warp earlier? You know, we looked around and things appeared differently than they had.

"Do you have any way of detecting individuals in stress within the building? My X-ray vision is quite limited due to the substances placed within the walls." I listen very intently with my super hearing to see if I can detect anyone in need of rescuing.
I think we are to late to solve anything here. The museum is crumbling apart as we speak. I do see someone leaving the building. Most likely Ice Witch, as they appear to have a lower body temperature than the air around them. There are criminals still remaining that very well could be killed in the building wreckage, perhaps now is the time to turn this event into a rescue mission.

It is a cute stomach I grant you; but this might be more than you can swallow; with thought and teamwork I believe we can truimpth over any situation even though I am not yet at my true strength; I am yet to adjust to this world. Magical defenses.....hmmmm....don't know, I know I can be affected by magic in itself, you know, its really kind of dumb of me to tell you what my weaknesses are. Anway, I've no idea what would and wouldn't work. As for battle and what I can stomch, I'll admit, I don't like playing dirty. If the stakes are high enough though, I'll do what I have to...just don't ask me to kill him. I'm not going to do that to him or anyone else.
Well Mordo I encountered a few days back. I was quite vulnerable to his magic. I would suggest that when we deal with him, to have his ire drawn towards you and as much as I dislike doing it, I end up coming in from behind. (Lowers head in shame for suggesting fighting on the level of a villain). Correct me if I'm wrong GM, tis been awhile.
I'll hang back hovering in the air and watch with my arms crossed. "Are you going to do the same thing as last time, you know when that other guy didn't want to talk?" If so, I might turn my back, it was pretty disturbing to say the least?" (all of this said in a manner to manipulate the situation in our favor, I'm not actually referring to a specific moment in time, but I'm guessing Firefly doesn't know that)
Is their sufficient room for me to fly either above or below my comrade? If so, once I'm just as far as he is (or slightly further) I shall use my superbreath to inhale and attempt to draw him towards us, thus preventing him from fleeing. In doing so, I hold out my hands to catch the guy. If I'm unable to do this let me know.
Ah, the game continues, thought it had come to an end. I lie seemingly helpless. I whisper to Maeldik (without moving from my position) "I think, given the situation we need to change our goal from fighting to acquiring the artifact. Once we have it they will flee this place. We should try and get word to the Justice League about researching and hiding it. With all this I can see how they might try to be summoning a god-like being to do their bidding."
Never tried to see though my eyelids before, sounds kinda freaky to me. I'll just play dead and listen in with my super-hearing. If you see something I need to be aware of or we meet some actual villains, just poke me in the back with your thumb. Carefull though, I wouldn't want you to sprain anything.
I shall fly at ceiling level (flat along the ceiling) and try not to be noticed by them until I can assess their motives for being here. I use my super hearing to see if I can catch anything they may be saying, also scan their armor (and weapons if they have any) with my x-ray vision I rolled a green (24) for super hearing and a red (100%) for my x-ray vision, should this opportunity be available.
Using my Heat vision, I shall try and melt the exterior/motor/weaponry of the disc. Hopefully it will disable the machine. I believe I already tried to use x-ray vision on the device and that didn't work. If I'm incorrect, I shall also try that. Do I have any idea if it is strictly a machine or if their is a little person/alien inside?
I will stand in square G-15 and as the thugs approach I shall attempt to use super breath and blow them back across the room. If I need an initiative roll it is an 8. I checked the book to see how initiative works and it didn't say what size die to roll. I assume it's a d10, if not please correct me. It's been awhile since we rolled for initiative.
"Beware Maelidek, some of these criminals serve the Penquin, a nemesis of the Batman. So now we have not just thugs of Lex Luther, but the Penquin as well. Not to mention Bane. Whatever is here, it is drawing together an assortment of criminals. Perhaps they are forming some sort of group, For now, I shall call them the Injustice League. I do believe we need to press forward quickly, as these distractions are here for a reason...to delay us while their bosses conduct some serious business." In a loud and commanding voice I say... "Anyone who wants to surrender now please just raise your hand!" I keep a close eye out for anyone with a umbrella and possible tricks they may unfold with them.
Agreed, we need to take action. I'll try and keep an eye on the disc as we move in and confront others. Let's enter the basement and work our way upwards. How fast can you move Maelidek? I can move at super speed and I think the faster we blow by anyone the better. I can take a super shot at anyone we encounter along the way. Agree?
It looks like we got company. That silver disc is back and it emits a green energy of some kind. It's firing blasts around the building from up above. This is the second or third time we have run across this little device. I'd assume it's causing the rumbling feeling as well. Anyone know if it's related to the artifacts that lie herein?
Very well then, I'll take the right. I must say you both really have a twisted view of Superman though. I don't understand why. Claiming he is a criminal and that he imprison's his enemies in some dimension hell....I assume your making reference to the Phantom Zone. Anyway, we can sort out those issues later. Let's move in.
I agree, we stick together. Each of us has weaknesses the others need to compensate for. I say we deal with the tougher group first, if were successful, the others are likely to flee or surrender. I was thinking perhaps we should let one person go on each side, in order to trail them to the greater threats they hide behind. Opinions?
Steps back, folds her arms across her chest, listens intently on the two as they speak. Slight frown across her face. "Well, this has been a very informative discussion, not sure I follow everything though. How did we come to the conclusion that this artifact is somehow related to some kind of deity?" "My presence here is strictly my choice. I'm looking forward to settling this matter so I can return to my adopted city. As for teaming up, well....misunderstandings happen, I understand that. I'd like to hear your version of the incident with Superman. As for those thugs outside, I have a sneaking suspicion that they work for Lex Luther."

I received a green result on the intuition check. Do I hear Maelidek speak out or is this all through his magic? Wow, you guys were busy posting yesterday.
Yes, I'll take a closer look at things. I tune my super hearing towards the tunnel and upstairs. Do I hear anything that might be alarming? "Maelidek, do you sense any beings here that I may not see?" If the response is no and my super hearing doesn't detect anything of significance, then I'll start moving forward, to take a quick look down this tunnel before turning my attention to the stairs.
