ooc: Solo is walking out into the broad daylight of mid-morning Manhattan traffic with a rifle? (and a bandalier strap of grenades, for that matter?) hmmm... ![;)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/wink.png)

"I don't know what this guy is. I definately don't trust him. And I'm confused about Elixir's involvement. What is he doing here? By the way, you'd better stow that before we have a crisis."

Solo quickly hides his rifle under his trenchcoat (He is still in hi "civilian outfit") and makes sure nobody has seen it,"Thanks, I just was worried this guy might pull some demons out of his ass. By the way nice trick with the "message". I'm sure its going to be usefull, when we are in a sticky situation.",
"We?", how funny Solo thought, the way he was changing and actually not only managing to be in a team, but liking it, he might need to switch his name into "Teamo". Solo grinned at the idea for a brief moment.

ooc: Omen 19 Karma spent for Yellow FEAT 2nd use of Incredible ranked Truesight-ish power stunt... ==== "Chris" somewhat forcefully shoves Markus' embrace off of himself, something that he could not have done without somehow circumventing the Dagger of Souls' protections against hostiles with a strong will or personal knowledge of powerful magics. "Chris" has neither. Markus' scrying upon the lines of fate and destiny do work, however, revealing the following things: - "Chris" has been lying about his identity.
- He is not really one of Hammerhead's gang, but rather an infiltrator.
- He is affiliated with the heroes that came out of the Angel Towers Complex to confront Markus.
- He is a mutant, accustomed to wielding great power.
- He is carrying something not of this reality, demonic or hellish in origin, that shields his mind from Markus' manipulation and bypasses his protections from directly hostile actions.
- Whatever it is he is carrying, he is unaware of its power or uses, but it locally blocks Markus' ability to probe further.
- This object he is carrying is in his front left pocket, not his backpack.
"Get off me, Mr. Evans. What are you doing here? I thought you were going to Mr. H's poker game?" "Chris" tries to maintain his cover as a gang infiltrator, not knowing that Markus has seen through this ruse. He is also attempting to hide his recognition of the heroes outside the Angel Towers Complex. ===== Shockwave, Vendetta, and Solo witness Elixir (in his civilian attire) shove the strange man who appeared from an energy vortex off of him, but he seems to ignore the heroes or at least pretend not to recognize them. He only marginally glances at the Angel Towers Complex, and its obvious that he recognizes this strange man and is thusly trying to not be seen approaching the building or greeting the heroes as being familiar to himself. Like he's still playing his undercover role he donned going to the Roaring 20s Club last night. [To Shockwave's SHIELD-trained expertise, Elixir is not very good at concealing his body language... he's shocked to see both this strange man and the heroes out on the sidewalk but trying to play it off...]

...Of course. He would have more pawns on the board. That confrontation --IF this is the work of my "patron" -- is still several moves away, however...
Please. I am no more "Sam Evans" than you are one of Hammerhead's goons. I am going to try to facilitate Cass--Spellbound's ressurection...she, I believe, is the key to resolving this mess. You should make sure your teammates are at her service to pay their respects in the event that I fail.
I step around Chris...or whoever he is...and climb into the cab. Then...almost as an afterthought...
...I don't know what it is that you're carrying, or who you got it from...although I have my suspicions...but know this: you are ill-equipped to be carrying around a piece of Hell. If it hasn't corrupted you already, it soon will...regardless, It WILL destroy you in the end.
Get rid of it before I see you again...or I'll send the both of you back to where it belongs...
...I shut the cab door.
...consider this fair warning, "Chris"...for old times' sake.
I tell the cabbie "Drive" and resist the urge to descend into ominous laughter.
One final task...it's time to move the enemy's bishop into play...
a quick phone call and...
Anton...I trust your little side game is going well. What did you find out at the museum?

"Elixer, I take it that you knew that guy? If so we need to talk and figure out what was actually happening here. We had some strange readings on that guy...and I'm sure he's nothing but trouble."

Elixir appears confused and angered by what the man said to him as Shockwave approaches.
The man gets into the cab, and it starts to drive away... but then suddenly the engine seizes up, and the cab stops to a sputtering halt after driving only a few feet.
Elixir's civilian clothing tightens and tears as he assumes his titanium form....
----
As Markus draws his cell phone to make a phone call, the cab driver curses as the car goes completely dead. He puts the car out of gear and turns the ignition and nothing happens.
Suddenly "Chris," now with flesh that seems to be made of metal, rips the door off of the cab, glaring at Markus.
"Who are you? Get out of the car, now!"

Jaine is right...some people just don't appreciate honesty...
Yarva Demonicus Marduk. Le changement, changez la forme d'homme. Libérez le prince pour toujours damné. Libérez la force du bourbier charnu. Faites bouillir le sang dans le coeur de feu. La forme partie, vraie et avec cela la chance, Augmentation le démon Marduk!
OOC: will be spending Karma like a mofo to stunt Spirit Gestalt off of Incarnation Awareness......if that doesn't fly, I'm going to be screaming "Help! Help! It's the Faces of Fear mutant menace!" while spending the entire round drawing the proper sigils to open gate to the Never...the magic equivalent of aiming, I guess...

Solo will walk up to Elixir saying,"He Elixir, where the hell were you?! And how do you know this guy? Chill out no reason to go all heavy metal, you might attract unnecessary attention.... Or is this red jacket douchebag gonna be a problem?"
As he speaks with Elixir, Solo attempt to reach for his Taurus Revolver in an inconspicuous manner, to no attract attention, just in case shit hit the fan!

"Let's keep it down a bit here. There are way too many civilians here to be starting up a fight."
Shockwave tries to head to the cab to protect the driver from both Elixer and his opponent.
