Um...looks at Loki...
"Just a little light bug for you all aren't I" Randall shrugs his shoulders and creates a small globe of light, adequate for lighting the tunnel.
Velmont said:
"Randall, I'll need your powers..."
"Ok, but beware all the demands you'll get to save the day..."
Mimic said:
any other reinforcements on the way?"
"Not that we know of"

With the new situation, Johan changes his duplication needs. He creates two duplicates with the force field (spending two hero points on the process and needing two rounds due to that) as he moves towards the hole. Each one of his duplicates and he himself will pick up weapons left behind by the policemen.

"While I appreciate your paranoia," the doctor says with a wry grin, "Jackal is not a movie werewolf. But he certainly could be the cause of the infection. I'll have to get a blood sample from him to do some tests."

"With all due respect to Jun Po, who deserves most of the credit for subduing Jackal, I just wouldn't want to have to subdue her as a werewolf with her already formidable martial abilities," X12 says with a sigh.

Elementor said:
I can't thank you enough X, for fixing me up after Jackal tore my one wing off."

"Where is my wing by the way?

"You're welcome, Vince. I don't know if they removed it from the pool area. I actually have an errand I'd like to run, given our free time here. If you'd like to come with, Vince, I'd appreciate the company... that is, if we're released, Doctor Johnson," X12 says.
 

John will follow the rest of them down into the obscured hole. He'll try to wrap up the air guy since the confined space might make him close enough to reach.

Accurate attack for 5, grapple. HP if roll is <11.

"You're free to leave the room, but not the hospital. You have to be signed out by one of your guardians from the institute, and since Jun Po is a patient here, she can't do that for you. You'll have to wait until someone comes to pick you up. Plus, I'd like to run those tests on Vince before he leaves, in case there are complications from his new bone structure," the doctor says.

"Well... that's unfortunate," X12 says. "Perhaps I'll meander down to Emergency Medicine and see if I can offer my assistance to the Chief Resident."

"Well, I'm sure he'd appreciate that," the Doctor says, "if you had your medical licenses and were fully insured against malpractice. It might be different if you had your healing powers working, but when I scanned you earlier, I noticed they are badly in flux right now. Good news though, it looks like they should return to normal in a few days. Hey, you can help me with the scans of Vince though. It'd probably be good for you to see how things are working in those wings of his, since you'll be healing him more than I will be. If Vince doesn't mind that is."

Able to see better with the aid of Randall's light, Raisa picks up the pace and hurries after the trucks. It also meant the possibility of seeing Anithos again, and there was no hiding the half smile on her lips at that thought.
 

"That would be fine, Doctor Johnson," X12 says. "I will have to look into petitioning for my license, or enrolling in classes to complete whatever course work I might still require. I'm not just a pretty face, you know," X12 says with cheesy grin.
 

Beneath the Freeway
As a group, you head to the ramp and race downwards, lead by Loki's lights. The earthen ramp comes to a smooth entrance into the MCNY waste reclamation system. Rather than a smelling cesspool, the huge tube you are now in has only ankle deep, mucky water rolling through the bottom of it. You can plainly see the trucks went to the right, from the dirt tire marks leading into the water. The smell of exhaust fumes is in the air.

Weak solar conducting strips line the walls and ceiling, providing very weak light. Down the tunnel in the distance, you see tail lights for a moment, then the sound of squeeling tires and the lights vanish. The trucks must have gone around a corner! A small breeze blows in your face, from the direction the trucks went.

Johan
Everyone runs ahead as you spend time duplicating. You then recover a few weapons. Two of your doubles have hand blasters (4L), one has a sniper rifle (6L, +1 to hit, 20 bullet clip) and you have a shotgun (5L, 10 rounds). By the time you make it to the ramp, you have to feel your way around to find it. Once you are below the illusion, nobody is in sight.

You make your way down the ramp and determine the truck went to your right. Faint light is in the tunnel provided by solar conducting strips. You see nobody, hear nothing but the trickling of water and smell nothing but the faint sewage odor, a faint breeze coming from the direction the trucks appear to have gone.

Everyone
Sanjay bursts down the hall after the vans at sprint speed. Straightjacket shrinks slightly to move freely and dashes after him, Raisa splashing along beside. Kevin quickly touches Loki and copies his powers, both sprinting down the hall after Sanjay. Tara buzzes along with Sanjay and Anna blasts off, rockets blaring in the sewer. Michelle zips along above them. You hit the turn. It's a nearly complete right angle, and you all come around it to see the truck tail lights winking in the distance. You hear the sound of their engines as well. The breeze isn't present in this tunnel.

Rebound is struggling to keep up. His bouncing is utterly useless in here and he's not in the best of shape for this. Nobody notices really, as you are all focussed on the trucks.

This is what everyone other than Johan, Raisa and Michelle sees.

Raisa
You find yourself lagging slightly behind (about 10 feet) of everyone else. When you come to the corner, something gives you pause. Everything looks right, but the breeze that is present in the tunnel is coming right out of the wall of the sewer. There is no vent or fan present. Rebound comes up behind you, gasping for breath.

"What... you stopping... for, Raisa," he wheezes out. "Damn, that breeze... feels good... hey... what the... that's a solid wall," he says, standing upright again.

Michelle
As you fly around the corner, you notice several, slightly smaller tunnels in the distance. You could swear you saw the flash of a silver cape around the second one. Tara pokes you and gives a little nod of her head left, a big smile on her face and starts to drop back slightly, behind everyone.
