Search and Rescue

[Saber]

It was total pandemonium in the NPD server. The R&D department was packed with avatars that many were not so welcoming, or were wary of having them within the server. Among them, Baretta, Rotor, Saber, Dagger, and everyone involved with the incident that forced their hand against whoever had abducted Mirror, Domain, and Amplify. Meanwhile, Katana and the other cyberblades were gearing up for combat as well. Katana's expression, once cheerful and carefree, was now cold, and vindictive.

Saber was staring at the screen, while Bit was working on the console, trying to monitor the hunter's movements. "How much longer until we get a trace route?" "Not much longer, it looks like our little rabbit as nearing his den." Baretta looked over when Bit said the tracer was almost complete "Does everyone have their assignments?" "Most of our group will be the advance group, raising hell while the infiltration group sneaks into the depths of the server."

Katana looked over to Baretta "That's us. Chakram, Dagger, Alpha and I sneak into the server and hunt down where our friends are, and send off a remote beacon, that helps get the doctor into the server."

 Bit was still focusing on the monitor while everyone was going over the tracer. "Once the doctor has secured the others, all he needs to do is hack the server where their core data is found and send it out with a secure, encrypted file transfer. we'll have it running through so many proxies and encryption algorithms, it will take them decades to track down where they will be landing. And here's the fun part, where they will be landing will actually be blank terminals prepped for registration. By the time they find where the location of their prey has landed, the data will have been wiped from the terminals, thanks to our human associates, and the data will have been re-registered and backed up on both NPD servers. No mistakes this time, we're going to make sure that if this happens again, all we need to do is make sure the data stolen is deleted and restore the backed up copies."

[Mani4c]

Noxus nodded. "I have Byte, my scientific adviser, acting as tactical liaison. He gave me this..." Noxus pulled out a small device about the size of a tent spike, he tossed it to Chakram. "It's a specialized scanning device. Once you get inside, stab that into a main code line in the server, it'll give us a layout of the server's architecture. Unfortunately it will only give us a basic layout, but if you can locate a detailed layout of the server, send it to Byte and he'll transmit it over an encrypted channel. It'll be added to you HUD automatically. He'll also be monitoring any activity and chatter throughout the server using that, if they say anything over the sever's communications, he'll let you know immediately." Chakram nodded and put the device in a satchel on his leg.

Totenkopf and Onimaru were sitting near the opposite wall of the room, gearing up for the assault. "I would recommend reconvening at the AUGMENT's location once we locate them. If the server's defenses somehow manage to locate you, you'll need more muscle than the stealth team can give you." Viral walked over to the Doctor, "Now's the time, show them the specialized armors and then access my...upgrade." The Doctor nodded. "I hate to interrupt, but I need you all to follow me. I've managed to whip up some program's that should even the odds if you run into that cretin in the server." The Doctor walked into the special projects section of the R&D department, with Onimaru, Viral and Lilith being the first to follow him.

[Prythian]

Alpha's tail lashed back and forth while she listened to the plan. It was a good plan, and would prevent any further kidnappings of these three... but as far as she knew, that still placed Integrate and Merge in danger should PariahTech ever find them. She knew Dagger wasn't registered anywhere currently, and that meant that Merge wasn't either... similarly, no one from Halberd's group was here to put any safeguards onto Integrate. But still, they could at least take the current AUGMENT avatars out of PariahTech's hands. In fact, it was almost shocking the NPD had been holding onto two of them... But there was at least one thing they needed to take into account.

Those of you with me, before we sneak in, you need to give me some time outside the server to analyze data. That's my specialty, and I can find us weak points and easy ways in. After that, unless you have a way of knowing where avatars are around you, even on the other sides of walls, follow my lead.

[Saber]

Once everyone had followed the doctor to his little project with Mani4c, they waited for the doctor to make the big reveal "This should be interesting."

[Mani4c]

The Doctor walked over to a terminal that was connected to a small number of tubes, "These were originally just vanity projects that me and Onimaru had drawn up, he had a bunch of ideas for armor programs that could be shared among various avatars, provided they met the required security screenings of course. The main issue has been coding them to mimic the warriors that the armors were based on, as a result, I only have two armors available at the moment, and they're all at their base abilities instead of their full power..." The Doctor entered a passcode and two of the tubes opened with a hiss and a billowing cloud of steam. "May I present to you, the three Kamen Rider armor units." The Doctor motioned to a large pistol with a belt that held a container for what appeared to be cards.(link) "This is the Diendriver, it functions as a combination rapid-fire heavy pistol and armor activation unit." He walked over to the next item, which looked like a large golden bat.(link) "This, is Kivat Bat the 3rd. He can..."

Before The Doctor could continue, the bat stirred, his eyes opened and he took flight! "Yosha! Kivatte Ikuze!" (Translation: Yes! Let's go Kiva!) The golden bat flew around the room, taking stock of it's visitors. When he had finished examining the newcomers, he flew in front of them and introduced himself. Speaking in english so they could understand him. "Hello! I am Kivat Bat the 3rd! Glad to finally meet you all!" The Doctor reached up and snatched Kivat out of the air. "He was originally meant to be a gift to Lilith, in honor of her and Viral's 1st month together as a couple. I was hoping that I could wait until he was finished, but this is more important." Kivat wrestled free from the Doctor's grip. "Yosha! I'd be glad to help!" 

Onimaru turned to the assembled avatars, "Some of us are registered or locally recognized, these armors will not only offer you more protection, but they contain a masking program that hides both your name and terminal address. Luckily the Doctor was able to replicate the masking program on short notice, but I thought that we could use the extra firepower, Viral and the Doctor agreed."

[Saber]

Saber inspected the pistol, walking over to Baretta and patting her shoulder "That's for you, cuz I'm assuming that you're in on this as well." Baretta nodded, walking over and picking up the pistol when the bat came to life. She aimed the gun at the bat on impulse from the surprise introduction, but stopped short of pulling the trigger as she realized it was just the bat talking. Once she had gotten over the sudden shock of the bat, she turned to address the doctor "Have these been mass produced? We're going to need to make sure any scanners they use on us won't lead them right back to the server, or anyone involved."

[Mani4c]

The Doctor shook his head. "This is the only model of the actual armor, I've managed to mass produce the masking program, but that's it." Kivat flew over to Lilith and landed on her shoulder, the vampire avatar smirked and gave the small program a pat on the head. "Here's to a happy partnership." Kivat just smiled. Onimaru looked at Baretta, "I've got a bunch of armor types drawn up for the future, once we get used to making these, the updates and new models will be much easier to create. I doesn't help that me and the Doctor have been keeping this low key, we were worried that the higher ups would pull the plug before the models could really shine."

Viral nodded, "Speaking of armor, Doc...is it ready?" The Doctor nodded and pulled out what appeared to be a small vial of shimmering purple code. "Thanks to the scans that you've had done, I was able to isolate your original armor coding, this will let you use it at will." Viral took the vial of code and activated his armor, he hesitated for a moment and spoke to Mani4c. "You alright with this? If either of us loses control of their emotions..." Mani4c was silent for about a minute before he finally replied. 'We don't have a choice, you're gonna need the boost in attack power. As for me, let me worry about the consequences.' Viral looked at the group, specifically Baretta and Saber, they saw what he was like originally firsthand. "Don't worry guys, it'll still be me and Mani4c at the wheel."

Before Viral could use the vial, a beeping noise could be heard coming from the main laboratory. "That's probably the scan, let's go!" Viral, Onimaru and Lilith were the first to leave. Masamune and Noxus held back for a moment. The Samurai avatar looked at Alpha, he sent a silent message to her,  <When you enter the server, I need a copy of all of the relevant files you can find...They will prove invaluable to our group, if we want to avoid a repeat of this, we'll need to be prepared. Also, keep an eye on Amplify if at all possible, something tells me that PariahTech will have tampered with her emotional programming.>

[Prythian]

Alpha sent a small message to him while prowling off. <We'll see what happens. I'll get what I can, but I analyze data, I'm not the best at gathering it. In any case, even if Amplify's been turned against us somehow, I'll make sure she doesn't take anyone off guard. I doubt PariahTech is going to be too subtle at any changes in personality data... I'm more going to be looking for any trackers.> And with that, she left out the door with everyone else.

[Saber]

Baretta looked at the gun, inspecting it's design while the doctor explained only the masking program has been completed, and the gun is the only one of its kind, triggering the gun's armor masking program as it altered her completely, and not even revealing any skin beneath the armor "That's all that we need. As I understand it from Bit, the hunter hasn't seen any of the new cyberblades, so as long as they can't identify them by appearance, this will work."

When the alert went off in the main lobby of the R&D wing, everyone rushed to the scene, where Bit was isolating the signal "What have you got?" "Well, so far, I have the server's location, but it's taking a lot of work to get a stable connection to it...I think it's inside of the slums..." Baretta bit her lip anxiously when Bit said it's taking some effort to connect to the server, a bit concerned if they might not make it there in time "If this is happening in the slums, I can give you one guess who's behind this..." "...You're right Saber...There's no question that this is definitely a megacorporation's doing. And given the target is an avatar, we have to be dealing with Pariahtech."

"Got it! I have a lock on the server's location, but the area will be very unstable and packed with viruses. Once I open up a gateway to the destination, you'll have to rush the gates and use the brute force method to get in." "Understood. Saber, I think it's time you put that rogue camo program to use."

Saber nodded and closed his eyes, letting his armor and appearance shift into one of similar, but more menacing than his usual form, armor equipped and his sword larger, almost large enough to content with Halberd's in width, but still coming short in length. Its blade resembled that of a thick bladed kitchen knife if anything. "Time to gear up everyone, we're gonna destroy these Pariahtech bastards and take our friends back!"

Katana drew her sword and waited for Bit to open the gateway, Dagger by her side along with Chakram and Alpha "Try to remain calm...They may be your friends, but if you let that distract you, you might get careless...The mission comes first here, personal ties have to come second until they have been secured..." Katana tapped her foot impatiently as she waited for Bit to open the gateway to the server entrance "Yeah yeah, I'll try and keep that in mind...You and Chakram just focus on keeping us non-invisible members of the team from being easy targets if we get outnumbered." Dagger nodded, donning his proxy armor and holding his blade staff behind him calmly "...I intend to..."

"Thirty seconds and counting until the gateway is active. The gateway will install the masking program into your code once you pass through. You'll only have a short amount of time while I keep the connection stable like this to get through without them noticing us, so don't waste time walking. Once you pass the gateway, you won't receive help from our end until you set off the beacon for the doctor to breach the server remotely, so all of you stay alive!" The gateway started forming beside the console, a large white rectangle large enough for even claymore to enter without trouble "This is it! Go go go!"

Saber, Baretta and the advance team were the first to jump through, the infiltration team of Katana, Dagger, Chakram and Alpha following close behind. Once everyone was through, Saber and Baretta were at the front of the pack, everyone bu the 4 most important ones charging the front gates. Dagger was waiting alongside his team, as the group rushed forward "Once they breach the gate, we'll rush in during the chaos that ensues. Alpha, if Chakram and I have to go stealth, be Katana's eyes and ears for us, and keep a private channel for just us four. We need to make sure we keep Pariahtech's attention focused on everyone else, so as little detection as possible is our goal here."

Saber rushed forward, blade at the ready, and moved for a powerful impaling thrust, managing to crack the door open slightly as he pulled his sword out "Mani4c! Noxus! I got a firewall breach, time to put your talents to use!"

[Mani4c]

Lilith nodded to Kivat as the Portal began to activate. "Kivat! Show us what you can do!" Kivat nodded and flew up "Yosha! Kivatte Ikuze!" Kivat flew into Lilith's hand, Lilith pushed down on a button on the bat's head, causing his jaw to open wide and his fangs to appear. "Gabu!" (Rough Translation: Bite) Lilith pressed the bat's mouth to her hand, causing the fangs to pierce her skin and transfer the armor's code into her body. A red, yellow and black stained glass pattern appeared on the lower portions of Liliths face as a swarm of shadowy chains snaked around her waist, forming a red belt with a perch on the buckle for Kivat. "Now Lilith-chan!"

Lilith held Kivat out in front of her. "Henshin!" Lilith place Kivat on the perch, locking him into place as a high pitched whistling sound came from the belt. Sound waves radiated out from the belt and Lilith's body turned silver, her body's shape warped into that of the armor and with a wave of her arm, she shattered the metallic covering, revealing her new armor (link). "Alright, hold on Mirror I'm on my way!" Lilith summoned her Raiper, which had take on a new appearance to match her new armor.(link also: Music Link) She charged through the portal, lunging forward and widening the crack that Saber had made. "They're on their way Saber!"

Viral took the vial of code and slammed it into his armor, injecting the code into his chest. His armor glowed a bright electric blue and began to crack, the cracks widened and eventually his armor exploded, revealing his original form, and all of the powers that came with it. "Let's go Noxus!" "Yes!" The viral siblings charged through the portal, arriving at the firewall immediately after Lilith. "Sorry, had to dress for the occasion!" Viral summoned his arm cannon and plunged it into the widened crack in the firewall. "Everyone get back!" Viral charged a burst of energy and fired it directly into the damaged firewall, overloading it and blowing it to pieces. "GO, GO, GO!" "FORWARD WARRIORS! AND FEAR NOT PAIN NOR DEATH!!!"

Justicar barreled through the portal, roaring in a bestial rage. "DIE YOU PARASITES!!!" He began to hack away at the unprepared security avatars before they could even raise their blasters, tearing them to ribbons even as the alarms began to blare. "GO AHEAD! I SHALL FEAST ON YOUR BONES!" 

Chakram activated his cloaking field and tapped Dagger on the shoulder. "I use throwing weapons as my primary tool, if we need to end someone, you go for the grounded targets, the one's up above are mine." 

Onimaru and Totenkopf were the last one's out, the portal closed behind them as Onimaru charged forward, screaming his war cry at the top of his lungs with a seal released Totenkopf right beside him. "Ikuze, Ikuze, Ikuze!" (Translation: Let's go!X3) "Your death approaches fools!" The advance team began their charge into the server, with the stealth team waiting for the coast to clear before moving in.

[Prythian]

<Quick! Follow me!> Alpha sent to the other three infiltration avatars as soon as the security avatars had been thinned out, immediately going into armored form and dashing forward, weaving through the chaos. <Any anti-proxy security seems to have been disabled with the firewall's destruction. Go to the left! Here!> And with that, Alpha activated both Pack Tactics and Beastly Awareness. With Katana as the target, both she and Alpha were given awareness of the exact position of all avatars near them within 25 feet. <There's a hallway to the side with no other avatars there and everyone else is focused on the diversion team! Move!>

[Saber]

Baretta was sticking close to Claymore while the riot had begun, using his size and power to knock people away when things got too close and personal and using her new blaster for quick paced, ranged attacks to whittle down each avatar's code for the others to finish off with only a few simple strikes. Saber, on the other hand, was attacking aggressively, mores than his usual self, and more like when he was infected with the virus. He wasn't giving any of the security avatars and inch as he cleaved through every single one without hesitation "If you think you can kidnap our friends and expect us to let you get away with it, you are sorely mistaken!" As they continued to take down more and more of the avatars coming at them, more seemed to pile in from the hallways.

Dagger nodded as Chakram explained his skills focused more on long distance, activating his own cloaking veil when the main advance group rushed the gates "Undestood. Katana, Alpha, get ready, the first phase is almost finished. You two will take point, Chakram and I will be following behind and providing support when necessary." Alpha gave the signal when she spotted a clearing in the crowd, Katana and Dagger following close behind. When Alpha gave Katana the same senses as herself, she was aware of everything around her, even the two invisible avatars behind them "No sign of Domain or Mirror yet! I'll try and contact them now that we're in the server with them, that might help us find them easier."

Katana tried sending Mirror a message, but it came up unsuccessful "...No signal from Mirror...I hope she's alright..." "What about Domain?" "Right, I almost forgot!" <Domain? This is Katana, do you read me? We're here to bust you guys out. What's Mirror's status?>

[Mani4c]

Viral opened fire with his arm cannon, blowing holes the size of dinner plates into the security avatars. "You know the scary thing? I find this fun, am I insane? Well...more insane than usual anyways." Noxus chuckled and decapitated one of the security avatars with his arm blades. "No...you're just embracing the finer things in life. Like ripping these fools apart!"

Meanwhile, Claymore impaled an enemy avatar against the ground, he then lifted the skewered avatar upwards and tossed him at his comrades. "Baretta, spread shot, now!" Totenkopf threw his Scythe, slicing a security avatar in half before recalling the weapon. "Something tells me that they're going to break out the big guns soon, stay on your guard!" Lilith ran towards Totenkopf, lashing out with her sword as she ran. "You doing alright?" Totenkopf nodded, "I've dealt with hardier foes in my time, what about you? Is the armor helping?" Lilith smiled as she stabbed an avatar through the head, "Kivat's putting in work, The Doctor and Onimaru have outdone themselves this time." Totenkopf just chuckled and advanced forward, warding off any avatars that got too close.

Chakram sprinted forward, pulling out the scanning spike that Noxus had given him, He threw the spike against the wall and slammed his foot against it, forcing the blade into the wall and activating it. <Scanner's online, receiving data now. Let's try and find a security station and find a more complete map before anything else.> Chakram noticed two snipers aiming at Katana from above, he leaped onto a wall and began to leap upwards, pushing off of the opposite wall to gain height. "Tag 'em!" "I don't think so..." Chakram leaped forward and extended his retractable wrist blades, slamming them into the snipers' chests. "No one hurts my sister." Chakram didn't even bother looking back as he retracted his blades and sprinted to catch up.

While pandemonium raged in the digital world, a trio of armed Janissaries flanked a small man in a lab coat. His name was Dr. Harris, and he was one of Chiron's chief cybernetics experts. "Is the virtualization gear in place?" The man spoke with an authority that clashed with his small stature. One of the Janissaries nodded, "Yes sir, the subject has been weaned off of her memory suppression drugs as you requested, and the cybernetic control implants are managing to pick up the slack." The doctor smiled, "Excellent, once the virtualization is complete we can begin reformatting her to suit our needs. Then we can finish focusing on those idiotic AUGMENT's that PariahTech are so tight in the pants about."

Dr. Harris' voice became laced with venom, he despised PariahTech, their obsession with the AUGMENT project was siphoning off vital resources from his cybernetics project. The fact that they'd also hijacked several of his research servers to create new hunters was just the icing on the cake. "Those fools, while they fumble in the cyber world to fix a mistake that should never have happened to begin with, I am on the cusp of creating the most potent killer ever created! Ah well, at least they let me 'test' their hunter's response to pain, ah, that pretty little sword user's anguish was delicious." Harris' face was plastered with a sickeningly amused grin. "They even let me install emotional programming to gauge it's resistance to torture, I'm proud to say that she broke faster than any of my organic subjects, more proof of how inferior those walking piles of code really are."

Harris and the soldiers entered a lab at the end of the hallway, in the center of the room a steel slab was set up with a virtualization helmet attached to it, the helmet had various wires plugged into the back that led to an android frame that mimicked a human body. There was a person lying on the slab, their head covered by the helmet. "Greetings Jäger, I'm glad you could be here for your upgrade." Jäger didn't respond, Harris wasn't surprised, the assassin wasn't exactly talkative, and was more than likely too subdued by her implants to offer much of a response anyway. "Are we ready to begin?" The head technician shook his head. "We suffered from a security breach and had to reboot the system, it'll take about 15 minutes before we can begin." Harris scowled, "Incompetent fools! Those PariahTech pigs can't even defend a isolated research server without lousing it up!" The doctor sucked in a breath through his teeth and exhaled. "Fine, I'll go over the process one more to be safe."

[Prythian]

<Katana!> Domain's message came through almost instantly. <I was wondering why a whole bunch of security just ran past my cell. Mirror's safety has been guaranteed for as long as I cooperate with them, but without the same cooperation on her part, she's had her messaging turned off. It's probably the same with the other AUGMENT avatar they brought here. Do not worry about me! Find Mirror, and send me a message as soon as she's free. I'll meet you on the outside after that. They can't stop me.> Though a simple text message, that last sentence couldn't have been more confident.

Domain looked at the door after sending his message, casually raising an arm and pointing it towards the door, while his spike extended. "...Not unless Mirror's been busted out..." He said softly, lowering his arm, but not retracting the spike. His helmet appeared on his head once more, obscuring all but the lower half of his face.

Alpha looked back and forth while Chakram took care of the snipers. <Lots of data flowing this way, there has to be a security node over there!> With that, she immediately turned left into a small hallway with almost no doors, running as the fastest pace she could while being sure the others could keep up. Her nose was held to the air, and even though there were no moving parts or nostrils in her armored form, it was clear that she seemed to be following the 'scent' of data.

[Saber]

Baretta aimed her pistol at the crowd of avatars, firing three spreader bullets at the batch. But not only did they split into ten each, they also exploded on impact with the avatars, deleting the entire batch after having been dealt with by Claymore's strength. The standard avatars were slowly starting to dwindle away to nothing, and she was scanning the group for anyone who had been damaged, while still picking off avatars that got too close.

Then, loud stomping could be heard as something much larger started coming their way. As the standard avatars were reduced in numbers, about 5 larger avatars replaced them, looking more formidable than the weaker ones that were acting as cannon fodder. Saber saw this and before he could even send the message out, his armor had shifted to savage mode. But this savage mode was slightly different than his usual one, likely due to the rogue camo skin altering his appearance. Saber ran over to Claymore and Baretta, claws at the ready as he faced the new threats. "Hey Claymore, how good is your arm?"

Katana got the message and was following the same scents that Alpha had been following, keeping at pace with Alpha while the stealth avatars followed close behind them "Domain doesn't need rescuing. He's only staying locked up because of Mirror, and her communications have been turned off. Once we have her free, he's going to be causing just as much damage as the others are while we get out of here." Dagger's voice came from up on one of the walls beside them, scanning for any sudden arrivals. "Then our main objective is finding Mirror. And if we find Mirror, we're likely to find the other one as well."

[Mani4c]

Claymore looked at Saber and chuckled, figuring out what he had in mind. "The question isn't how good my arm is...it's how durable your frame is." Claymore grabbed Saber and began to spin, moving faster and faster until he finally let fly, hurling his older sibling at the incoming heavy avatars like a shotput. The large avatar glanced at Baretta and laughed. "I love family sports, don't you?" Claymore then charged forward and began to grapple with one of the heavy avatars, smashing the brute in the face with his massive fists. "What's the matter? Not in the mood for fisticuffs?" Noxus tackled one of the heavies, bowling them over with some assistance from Justicar, who tore at the pinned avatar's face while Noxus slashed his chest to bloody ribbons. 

Viral hung back with Baretta and Totenkopf, activating his armor piercing laser and laying into the heavy avatars from a distance. "Where's Onimaru?" Totenkopf paused in his fusillade of fireballs and jerked his thumb back over his shoulder. "He and Lilith are playing cleanup, a second group of security avatars tried to pull a pincer move on us and they wanted to cover our backs." Viral smiled under his helmet. blowing a smoldering hole through one of the heavy avatar's heads. "Bless her heart. Yo boss, how about we give 'em the old one-two special!?" Viral looked at Baretta, it was clear by the tone in his voice that the "One-Two Special" was something that he desperately wanted to use.

Meanwhile, Chakram sprinted ahead of Alpha, reaching the node before her. He activated his chakrams and hurled them at the small detail of guards in the room. The blades tore into two of the guards, one was nearly bisected, while the other screamed in pain and tried to remove the still spinning blade that was burrowing into his chest. The other security programs raised their rifles, only to be cut down by a hail of Kunai and stabs to the throat. He activated his communicator and messaged the stealth team. <I've found the node, the room's clear as well, but be on your guard, I doubt that was the last of them.> He held out his hand and retrieved the still embedded chakram from his victim's chest. the avatar gave a groan of pain before collapsing into a pile of crystalline shards. "Cheap consumer models."

[Prythian]

Alpha rushed into the node, glancing about. <Ah! Here we go.> She had to remain communicating through messages only. There was no way for her to really keep her 'voice' down and be sure no one but her allies would hear. She placed her forelimbs on one of the consoles, claws vanishing so as to avoid damaging it. <There should be a map somewhere here to display on the screen... at the very least, a map with security breaches on it. It won't show much, but it should tell us enough to figure out where to go...> Of course, she wasn't exactly in a good position to operate the console herself.

[Saber]

Saber let Claymore hurl him through the air like a missile, aiming his claw forward in a spear fashion as she roared as loud as he could "HAAAAAAAH!! TAKE THIS!!" The force of the throw was enough to send him straight through the avatar's gut, rebounding off of the wall behind it and leaping up to impale the larger avatar in its shoulders and start stabbing and slashing wildly

"In a second. This fight has been dragging on for too long without any word from the others. Infect the server and jam communication with the human world, we don't want any outside interference." Baretta finished off the last of the standard security guards, which only left the bigger ones from before.

Dagger lifted his proxy armor long enough to step beside Alpha, watching as she tried fumbling with the console with her not so dextrous forepaws "...Let me do this, you're not in the right form to be manipulating code..." Dagger waited until Alpha stepped aside, before working the console himself, following her instructions as they searched through the data for anything that would be of help. "...If we can find the experimentation wing compared to our location, we'll be able to find them without trouble..."

[Mani4c]

Chakram spun his blades nervously, he wasn't fond of being idle. "Make sure to find a map that we can upload to Byte, it'll help us regroup when the time comes to call in the tech experts."

Noxus fired a barrage of energy blasts at some of the heavy avatars, but their thick armor negated a lot of the damage. "Damn, my ranged capabilities are outmoded here, Justicar!" The swordsman threw his hands out to his sides and began to charge energy into them, when he had gathered enough energy, he slammed his palms together and fired a large blast of explosive code. "Light Grenade!!!" The blast deleted or heavily damaged three of the heavy avatars, the one's that survived had smoking holes in their armor. Viral charged his arm cannon and slammed the barrel into the server, interfacing with the server's code and carefully cutting the server's outgoing and incoming communications, he also scrambled the communications arrays in the real world, right down to the ancient land-line telephones. "This is going to take a minute, cover me will ya!?" 

[Prythian]

<There.> Alpha pointed with her tail, the energy blade on it retracted to avoid any accidents. <If you look at the files there, you'll find the camera locations, which should also include a map somewhere in that group of files. Even if not, the names of the cameras should give us a greater idea of the layout than we have now. We can't afford any more delays, the longer we take the riskier things get for the diversionary group and the AUGMENT avatars.>
