Umbridge High School Building, Saturday Evening

Jul 28, 2012 08:48

There were some clouds hanging around the spires of Umbridge High School, but not enough; there was an overlaying sense that there shouldn't be as much sunlight shining down on it as there was.

It was quiet. Kind of. There was tension in the air, a wound-up strung-up thing that ensnared the school. Somehow it seemed as if even the birds didn't ( Read more... )

The lawn laid here pristine and neatly trimmed, and entirely unknowing of its soon-to-be-trampled fate.

This would be the first hurdle on the way to the school. Maybe the loyalists hadn't noticed you yet, resistance...

A distraction team was trying to breach the hurdle with explosions. Almost as if they wanted to be noticed.

The brain of Umbridge's empire - or at least the memory - was the library, stocked to the brim with books... and at this point, probably alerted loyalists.

Loyalists, gather up to guard your books.

Cassie was in the library, in a prime defensive spot, calling up the power within her. She would help protect this library and damned be the ones who tried to stop her.

Down below laid the target of tonight's assault: detention, with its guards and its many wards. Do you dare?

Loyalists, gather like the storm. Or the rock that breaks the storm. One of those things.

Lex didn't really spend that much time near detention, but here was where he'd been told to go, so here he stood.

Kaidan still wasn't sure what to think. Had been thinking about Shepard... a lot. Their last stand... Saren...

That didn't mean he wasn't going to be sharp standing guard out here near detention. Of course not. He did his duty.

It looks like an ordinary school hallway, but somewhere in the middle of this row of lockers lies Locker 327... and the Detention Scroll.

If it seemed strange that there was someone in the office on a Saturday, the sight of Momoko just sort of standing there near the doorway, staring at the empty desks, the place where she'd spent the last two years not knowing, not remembering, had to be even stranger.

Her eyes were still red -- her eyes were always red -- but anyone who'd met her during her time working for Umbridge would notice that today, they were a thousand times less cloudy. And she had a mission.

Momoko wasn't sure how this would all end, today, but she had a back-up plan. Besides leaving, that is, which is what she was going to do as soon as she was done here. That was what Priestly had wanted, and now, well, she had no reason to stay.

She walked to the file cabinets lining the wall, pulling out reports and forms and throwing them to the floor. She'd worked in administration long enough to know the value of them; if these papers didn't make it to the right people, there would be chaos. The Board would get concerned. Inspections would happen... It wasn't much ( ... )

"Momoko."

As soon as Karla saw her friend in the office, she stopped in her tracks. Momoko. She...couldn't face the other female now. Not after what happened to Priestly. Not after the last things she said to Priestly. Not while knowing that Momoko could still be Imperio'd.

"That's Momoko," Karla said a little louder. "She works in the office. If there's anything to be found in there, she'll probably know where it is. You might have to trick her though--I have no idea where her loyalties are right now."

Maeby thought about that for a few seconds -- which, to be fair, was a few seconds more than she usually thought about things.

"Okay," she said. "So we tell her we're pro-Umbridge, and if she's not, then we tell her we're pro-Resistance and she saw right through our cover. I mean, everyone's been pretending to be loyal anyway, right?"

Or they could make up something completely insane. That was her usual MO.

For any other things going on in the school concurrently with everything else.

At the base of a wall there was a trembling and a crash followed by blur of giant green figure as it punched it's way onto the school grounds.

"HULK SMASH!"

That of course was pretty obvious.

As obvious as the gaping hole left behind him that anyone could use for escape.

[Separate thread from the breakout so I don't usurp any of the fighting in that thread. Feel free to use as an exit point or a place to confront the escapees.]

The Hulk was followed out of Detention and across the grounds by a blonde with a gun who was quickly covering any potential ambush points by loyalists.

And for any Madri that were trying to get in their way, well, a few of them died messily and in pain, until the feel of the unfamiliar firearm became second nature. The rest would have the honor of reintroducing Hunter Dojima's talent at headshots while moving.

April was completely taking that opportunity, thank you. Raising her eyebrows at the Hulk in a gesture meant to convey thanks, she ducked through the hole and -- at her normal, unhurried pace -- headed for her apartment.

It was a good thing she'd never gotten that Venus Fly Trap she wanted. It would so be dead by now.
