Realistic or Modern Heroes Among Us (CLOSED)

Newton nods in agreement and continues sprinting down the stairs. It wraps twice as it goes down each story until the two of them are at the door of the maintenance area. Newton tries to door and it is locked again.

"Are we to assume they know we're coming?" Newton asks wanting to know if he needs to be quiet or not.

He finally shrugs and touches the door, altering the hinges to no longer be attached and kicks the door hard causing it to be flung in landing loudly on the metal walkway. He then takes cover to one of the sides of the door as bullet fire streams past.

As they ran, Noelle pulled some of the windows out of their frames. Clouds of glass shards followed her, creating an almost musical sound as they clashed together.

"I'm pretty sure the guard you crippled would have warned them if he wasn't unconscious," she said, pressing herself to the other side of the doorframe.

Sure enough, the bullets signaled that, yes, the other guards did know they were coming. The bullets went through her glass cloud, but she make sure that no shards would hit either her or Newton.

Her mind raced on how to stop the bullets. She looked at the glass cloud and brought her hand into a fist. The cloud came together into a thick sheet of glass, and with a wave of two fingers, she sent it flying through the door.

"It's not completely bulletproof," she said to Newton, making sure he didn't run out behind it. "But it does make a nice meat shield."

She grinned as she heard a grunt of pain through the door. One down and four to go.

After a few more seconds the thick sheet of glass completely shatters ready for Fragment to use again. Newton reaches he hand around to touch the metal door now on the ground and alters it's size so it's able to be carried and pulls it to himself. From here he alters it further to be an impromptu riot shield.

"Hey could you supply some glass for an eye slot?" He says gesturing to about an inch gap in the metal shield. (Assuming she does so) he turns the corner squatting letting a new volley of gunfire hit the shield, denting it severely to get a scope of the room. He then tucks back around to the brick wall.

"Two low by the cages. The kids are freaking out. Two high on the catwalk across. 1 and 2 o'clock probably 40 meters. Can you get an angel from here?" Newton says breathless, not reveling in the onslaught of gunfire.

Noelle nods and some of the glass shards came back to form a window.

"Cover me with the shield and I can," she said, waiting for Newton to step forward before she began.

As she peered through the eye slot, she waved her hand around in a circle and the shards of glass became a tornado. She took one deep breath and splayed her hand out while clenching her other one into a fist.

The glass inside the tornado became thousands of medium-sized marbles and they exploded into four different directions, pummelling the guards. She crossed her open hand across her body and created four more tornadoes around each guard.

"Go grab the kids," she said through gritted teeth, keeping her concentration on the four tornadoes. "I'll cover you, but you have to be quick."

Newton takes his shield and runs into the room catching random bullet fire with it as he runs down the metal catwalk and then down the stairs to the cages. He charges the guard there, still firing randomly in the chaos, and checks him with the shield into the nearby generator. With his free hand he turns and touches each lock on the cage. With a purple flash of energy all of the cages swing open.

Newton alters his voice and speaks, "If you know the way out of here, get moving, stick together, and watch each other's back." He hefts his shield and he runs back up to the catwalk to help Fragment finish this.

The four Variants quickly followed after Newton. While they were running, they were looking at him and Fragment in awe.

As soon as the Variants and Newton were clear, Noelle commanded the glass to pummel the guards like hailstones. She wanted the guards to bruise, and if there were a few broken bones, she was fine with that.

She could feel herself reaching her limit though. Keeping so many small objects from breaking was beginning to tax her. She kept it up until Newton and the Variants were up the catwalk, and then she let the tornadoes drop to the ground.

The two guards remaining regained their focuses faster than Fragment anticipated and they level their rifles at her after reloading.

"No!" Newton yells finishing his climb to the catwalk and jumping in front of her with his shield raised as bullet fire pelts it. Occasionally near the edges of the shield the metal tears causing their cover to be less and less. The four young variants exit the room and take cover on the sides of the walls.

"Any bright ideas?!" He yells over the fire.
