Elixir feels his titanium form tingle and grow warmer (*), and hears a resonant voice that seems to come from within him, like there is a speaker in his head. It is Shockwave's voice - "Elixir, can you change the kick to something else? Like a knockout drug? Might be easiest to just give him what he wants if Old School and I aren't able to shoot him down." ooc: * - scientific nerd knowledge / possible future power stunt for Shockwave: You can convert strong sound energy waves into heat by using dense absorption materials such as insulation, rigid fiberglass sheets, or any other thick/dense material placed in proximity of the sound source. ![;)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/wink.png)

Huh, didn't know he could do that...
Elixir whispers, "I can evaporate it and replace it with a knockout serum, so basically the same thing yes, but I'd rather not, studying this might allow me to find a way to counteract it or create a cure."
"Windchill! Listen! I'm not going to let you throw your life away, you'll have to take this from me, but if you can't get in control even a little, you'll just end up breaking it or freezing it solid. Come down here and I can help you!"

"Why should I listen to you? Kick gives the monkeys what we have. They fear us! And it makes us as powerful as we could possibly be" Windchill says to Elixir, from somewhere in the air above them. Shockwave's helmet computer chimes with a report: [Tracking soundsource: male voice, identified Sontag, Colin, designate "Windchill"]
[Exact location not triangulating. Passive sonar detection blurring. By the formula v = 331m/s + 0.6m/s/C * T, radically decreasing ambient temperature ranges and variations in air pressure can impede and dampen the transmission of soundwaves to subsonic levels.]On Shockwave's HUD, he sees a vaguely human shaped sonar profile hovering in the air above the heroes, as if the wind were cold enough in spots to have a solid, yet invisible form. Either Windchill had become air, or he was manipulating air to take on an invisibly human form. ===== Ferine rips the helicopter door open, and helps the jarred passengers and pilot out. Though cut and bruised, the reporter and cameraman begin filming the heroes as the reporter excitedly speaks of how their helicopter was "shot down by another possible mutant attack, perhaps the second wave of the attack from this morning..." ===== ooc: Sorry for the sloppy scene set up... declare actions, previous rolled initiatives will apply. ![:D](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/grin.png)

"I'm getting a faint reading. It's almost like he blended with the wind. I get a humanoid form, but it seems like pure cold." Shockwave points in the direction where he is getting the reading. "If you can throw me right there. I'll try to get a shot off, and worry about how I'll get down after. If you see Windchill falling, catch him Don't worry about me."

After freeing the people from the helicopter Ferine turns and looks in the general directiong where Shockwave is pointing. Using her hypersensitive hearing and olfactory she tries to locate the person he is pointing at.

"Because Hammerhead sells it and if you can't stay in control then you'll just be a tool for him!" Then more softly, "Come on down C. I'm trying to help you here, I've already said I'll stand by you, but you've got to come down and relax first." To Shockwave, "Don't attack him yet, I may still be able to get through to him..."

Ooc: Going on the premise that Oldschool can hear Elixer's words with his Ultra hearing.
Oldschool holds off throwing Shockwave. Shockwave's words confirmed it. Windchill had become the snowy wind. Arc had mentioned it in the tower. A Stage Four transformation or something.
How do you stun the wind, he wondered.
Oldschool waited for a definitive target or order. He'd worry about how to catch two falling teammates when it happened.

A whirlwind of ice and snow begins spinning and depositing ice on the pavement near the heroes, sculpting the form of a human male. The ice cracks and refreezes as the sculpture moves, like stop motion photography even as it becomes pink then flesh-toned.
The winds die down as Windchill, in tattered uniform kneels on the ground in front of the heroes, breathing hard.
He looks exhausted, but a twist of crazed anger contorts his face.
He looks up at Elixir. "The Kick! Give it to me!"
=====
Arc and Vendetta land nearby in the Paladin Institute cargo helicopter.

Solo takes out his Taser and aims for windchill, and will shoot as soon as windchill is in range.

Vendetta half turns to Arc and the helo crew "you dont happen to have an M107 in there do you?" then he begins trying to asess (sp?) the situation by the other team-members, trying to make sure he is ready to act as soon as he is needed.

"You still want the Kick even if it will addict you and make you just another junkie on Hammerhead's payroll? Nuh-uh, no."
"Are you willing to kill me to take it? That's what you'll have to do."
"Come with me and I can help you."
Elixir turns back into his normal human form and extends his hand, the empty one, to Windchill, keeping the other behind his back.
"I'm your friend, this drug will kill you."

Windchill's powers seem to pulse between being pushed beyond their limits and fizzling into nothingness.
He seems to have over-exerted himself as the weather returns to being cloudy with a chance for mid-afternoon rain.
He cries out, "Kill you? I don't want to kill anybody. I just want... need that Kick. I could freeze you all solid and shatter you like Christmas ornaments. I could scoop up all the cars on this street in the wind and bomb you with them. I could... as soon as I catch my breath..."

Shockwave takes the opportunity to fire a full powered stunning blast at Windchill. (Using the +1CS for sonic manipulation, in return for lower power for 1-10 rounds.)

ooc: Roll it, Shockwave ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png) also, anyone else piling on (Solo with taser, etc.) can roll their attacks.
