((EDI:T Oops, forgot about this!
Suppressing fire = 41.
Consumer evasion = 26. Suppressed. Took 40+10 (rycroft special)=50 damage... Loses Attack turn.))
Morgan had slumped down in the car and was dazed. There was smoke and dust in the area from the blast and the car had slid out from its previous position. The taxi cab driver looked around confused. "Is everyone okay? *cough cough* You need to get back in the car... *cough* we have to go... now..." he said weakly.
He looked into the alley, it was filled with dust and smoke from the earlier blast and nothing could be seen while the thick cloud of dust and smoke clogged the alleyway entrance. "Did he explode? Is he dead? Is it over?" the driver asked. Police sirens could be heard in the distance speeding towards the scene, but they would still be a few minutes out.
Morgan tried to start the car once again, but the engine wouldn't turn. "come on, come on..." he murmured as he tried again. "I'm going to make a run for it on foot... it won't start!" He shouted. He tried to open the driver side door but it was stuck from the blast, apparently the locked mechanism became jammed. He pushed harder and used his arm to hit the door to force it open before it popped and flung open. He stepped out onto the sidewalk and coughed once more, making sure to stay out of the way of the line of fire from the two officers.
And that's when he looked up and saw the dust clear... "Oh my god..."
The glowing man was still in the alleyway, a dim glow was emanating from his body. The two women near the car began laying down suppressing fire to cover their ally, filling the alleyway with a wild spray of flying bullets. The Consumer was hit multiple times, getting knocked back and falling to his knees. He looked shocked and confused for a moment, and an expression of shock and pain came upon his face. He looked down at his own deformed hands, then across the alleyway to the women that were shooting at him and the taxi driver.
A look of shock and horror came across the Consumer's face, and he let off another howl of rage. He began to glow once more, this time a lot brighter and more violent. The high pitch frequency increased immensely, it was clear that he was losing control and the outburst were becoming more violent. He was now a walking time bomb, quite literally ready to explode.
The taxi driver wasted no time in turning around and sprinting in the opposite direction to flee the scene and get to safety, he didn't even bother to see if the three women were behind him. The glowing man slowly took a few stumbling steps forwards as the glow increased, it was clear that he was getting ready to explode, just like the car accident that took Keiko's arm and put her sister's lives in danger.
((Did the exploding man really explode? (50+ yes)=11... Nope!
Did he stay in control? 19=nope!
Focus roll 1=24...
Morgan starts the car? 19... Nope! Da fudge?!?!))
On the rooftop at the back of the alleyway, a mysterious humanoid shadow appeared, but the figure didn't move or take any action... they just stood there, and watched from above...
