[The doors open directly to the 20 steel nuclear reactor shells set into the concrete around the facility (as shown on the map). The balcony above is where all of this is taking place, as for the lower floor main plant, there isn't really anything to find or destroy]
*hypothetically could he try to burn through the steel on the shells?*
[Yeah sure I guess?]
*only reason im asking is to sew more chaos. Cause burning a way through that should cause a partial nuclear meltdown, right?*

The gang is all gathered up and the guards are just about ready to start talking when sirens start blaring. Harvey groans and Arnold swears, hoisting his injured comrade up again and shouting to you all 'Nuclear meltdown! We've really screwed up for that to happen and there are barely any contingencies. We've got about 5 odd minutes before things start properly exploding and it all gets real bad!' It's likely he's aware of one of your gang's fault but doesn't seem to be in the mood to point fingers. He then shouts to Cal 'Get that teleporter of yours to yoink us out of here! We'll struggle to escape otherwise', all the while Roland is cackling maniacally, tears streaming down his face and his tinfoil hat glinting in the red warning lights, shouting 'We did it! We did it! We did what we came for! All is well!'
Tam pulls up his hoodie and puts a portal over his face. He can see out, but nobody can see his face. "I'm willing to talk this out. I don't want to hurt anyone. I just want to survive."

Tod, after the sunflower guard disappeared, had gotten up, walked inside, turned the corner, and presently sees Alan. Of course he does. The most dangerous one there. He steps backwards back around the corner. That guy was burning into the nuclear stuff. Frowns. Then he makes up his mind.
If he probably can't walk back in there without Alan seeing him and going crazy, he can't get to the teleporting group, which must mean his only option is to run back to the city. And so he begins to do so, his current sunburns feeling fiery already.

...and started me on my way into my next chapter in life...
[I love the idea of Tod being consistently present but never actually doing anything, but then having a big deus ex machina at the end with a burst of great luck lol. Obviously I wouldn't genuinely suggest that considering it's not fun or practical to play, but if this was a TV series that would be the direction I'd take it lmao
Okay, so, just sort of waiting on Henri to teleport the gang away to wherever they decide, though they might not end up where the like, and then we can continue from there, destruction and chaos successfully wreaked!]
Green Team (Henri, Raymond, Tod and Alan) are now out of initiative and free to enter the building. As for Red Team (Charles, Tam, The Fishmonger, Roland and Greg), it is now the Guard's turns!
Guard 1 (North: Can peel himself into vertical strips: -3 Health, Disarmed): Punches Charles this time: 7, 1 bludgeoning damage on a hit. Guard 2 (East: Deals double damage by 'shattering' targets like glass: -9 Health): Shoots at Greg so he can call for backup: 17, 8 piercing damage on a hit. Guard Imposter (South: Nightmare Monster: Full Health): Seeing as it's betrayed it's creator, it will now shoot at Guard 1: 6, 2 piercing damage on a hit.
Raymond walks in, whistling a tune to himself as he enters the power plant

*With Henri’s fatigue it’s likely they will just end up in the Sahara or something. Just tell me when they get with the rest of the team, so they can do that.*
[They can just gather up with the group as they like, they'd be a small set of stairs up to the balcony they could take and they'd have gotten there before Alan since he left first]
*Oh also, is it cool if a make a character whose power is just alchemy from Full Metal Alchemist? Basically he can manipulate the basic elements on a small scale with no issue, but if he tries to manipulate something complex or change something into a different material then he would have to roll 2d20, the first one to succeed, the second one to not have his mind begin to unravel under the truths of the universe. Also can he have his brother?*
As soon as they are teleported back to the city, Charles heads back to his lab and rebuilds his combat bot. He adds a second battery and hooks it to either side of the drum, which will superheat the drum, adding (I hope) 2d4 fire damage to each hit.

[Yeah sure, I'm not too familiar with Full Metal Alchemist so not sure what you mean about his brother, but the power sounds good, I'm fine with that. Hope you don't mind but I'll roll the teleportation roll for you, I'm guessing you're just aiming anywhere in the city: 12 ]
The party successfully escapes the powerplant before it explodes (Tod is luckily just out of range and Alan probably can survive out of some sort of quirk with his power) and they have now ended up teleported into a woodland park area somewhere within the city, which wasn't what Henri anticipated but the best he could do with such fatigue. Aiming in general at the city area seems to have slimmed the chances of ending up somewhere completely random, considering it was such a large area. The air is crisp as evening approaches and Arnold sighs, looking down at Harvey and murmuring 'Well, what now? That's our job gone...eventually they'll find us and question us, then probably lock us up, but maybe we can pretend that we died in the explosion? The signal you sent could have been for the meltdown and now we can lay low for a while before escaping out north! You said you had family in Oregon and-'
Harvey yells 'NO! I've had enough! Let go off me!' Arnold is shocked but lays him down next to a tree. He keeps shouting, saying 'No more of your stupid charades, we're not going anywhere! I'm going back home, and getting some medical help, then I'm reporting everything! I would have happily died defending that plant like I was supposed to, but you had to go and have a heart!' His face twists at that last part as he realise how bad it sounds. He manages to steady himself on the tree, and suddenly a branch comes shattering off as he grips the bark a bit too hard. He props himself up on the shattered stick like a crutch and says a bit calmer 'I don't give a [GP] who these idiot freedom fighters are or why they've decided to blow up the plant. I just want to go home.' He slowly starts to walk off, each step appearing like agony, when he looks over to Tam. He studies his face for a second, despite it mainly being hid under the hood, and looks as if he's about to say something before he stops himself and continues off, disappearing into the mist.
Harvey looks fairly distraught over this development. He apologises to you and says 'Sorry, it's just...Harvey always wanted a bit of stability in life, whereas I wanted to sort of, break free a bit, y'know? I thought this maybe could be our chance, but seems he's got his mind still stuck in his ways, which isn't a surprise considering all that's happened to him...' He takes a deep breath and says 'We were both given a choice as T-Block residents; unemployment or remote military work. We both chose the latter, but I only did it because it was all I could do, whilst he chose it because it was all he had to do.' He stops and thinks again for a second and continues saying 'I dunno your schtick or what you're up for, but I think I'm in. Don't worry, Harvey will come to his senses, hopefully, so we won't get too much trouble on our hands from his report, but it's not like I can do much myself now. What'd you say, can I join?'
Roland has recovered from the high of completing his mission, and doesn't care less. He simply says 'Boss will appreciate some more insider info, I'm not too bothered! If the gangs happy, welcome in!'
Alan is staggering to his small house in the city, clutching his briefcase tightly and trying to blend in with his scorched clothes, the fire gone from his body completely.
