[[1]Gage[1]] LOCATION> ALTERNATE-MYSTIQUE'S HIDEOUT
[[1]Gage[1]] SCENE> IN A FANCY HOTEL ROOM, THAT
MYSTIQUE OBVIOUSLY RENTS (or rented) OUT, THE TEAM SITS AROUND DICUSSING WHAT
TO DO NOW. THE GROUP WHO ENCOUNTERED
BASTION HAS JUST HAD THE TRACKING DEVICES BASTION USED TO FOLLOW THEM REMOVED
FROM THEIR HEADS BY MYSTIQUE. THEY EACH
HAVE GUAZE TAPED TO THE BACK OF THEIR NECKS WHERE THE PROCEEDURE TOOK
PLACE. EVE'S BODY LIES ON THE BED IN
ANOTHER ROOM.
<[1]Polaris[1]> ::In the other room with Eve's body,
holding her deceased hand:: I should've done something....
<[1]Phase[1]> :::Pacing, muttering to himself
periodically:::
<[1]Seraph[1]> ::sits quietly by himself in a recliner
near a window, staring outside::
<[1]Click[1]> ::looks to Gage, and says sorta quietly::
are we going to bury Eve here, or back home?
<[1]Cryz[1]> ::trying to stay off tot he side and.. not
really talk to anybody, for his own good::
<[1]Rhythm[1]> ::standing in the doorway, looking at Eve
and Polaris::
[[1]Gage[1]] <Mystique> ::hand morphed into a surgical instrument, finishing up on Gage::
<[1]Dragon[1]> ::arms folded, stands near a window,
shooting a suspicious glance at Mystique now and then::
<[1]Shadowcat[1]> ::Stands in a crorner w/ her back against
the way..moves a finger over her bandage then she sighs and hugs her jacket
closer to her::
<[1]Polaris[1]> ::Sighs, and closes her eyes, tears
falling:: It should've been me... ::voice is nothing but a whisper, and she
prays::
[[1]Gage[1]] ::getting operated on by Mystique, without
looking at Click:: If we can't take her
home...then we're going to destroy the body here. Can't leave evidence...or something.
<[1]Rhythm[1]> ::whispering to himself:: she's really
dead..
<[1]Seraph[1]> ::wraps his wings around himself and curls
up in the chair::
[[1]Gage[1]] <Mystique> ::tapes guaze to gage's
head and stands:: You people...look,
you've still go a mission to finsih or you will all be dead. Someone's going to try and stop me from kill
Creed.
<[1]Seraph[1]> ::ignores Mystique and continues to sit
there::
<[1]Polaris[1]> Why did you have to be so brave, go
charging at the Sentinel like that... ::words are loud now, sniffs and light
sobs between her words::
[[1]Gage[1]] ::looks at his device, speaking without
emotion:: We've got about 12 hours
before his speech. The best I imagine
we're going to be able to do is stake out Central Park...unless somebody has an
idea. ::blocking Eve's death from his
mind::
<[1]Shadowcat[1]> Really messed up sounding..but right ::nods
to Mystique as she puts her arms to her side::
<[1]Seraph[1]> ::quietly:: we should get some rest before
tomorrow
<[1]Phase[1]> :::Stops pacing, clears his throat::: We
could set up an alternate firing position.
That way, someone takes out the blue bimbo, we got a backup.
<[1]Rhythm[1]> ::looks back towards Mystique and then
Gage, shaking his head::
[[1]Gage[1]] <Mystique> ::looks at Dragon, then
Cryz:: Oh...I get it. ::morphs into Dragon:: Afraid I'll replace you? ::starts toward Cryz::
<[1]Click[1]> we could do that, and have someone go with
mystique when she goes to.. shot the guy
<[1]Dragon`[1]> ::eyes narrow, glowing slightly for a
moment, but she says nothing and looks away, angrily::
[[1]Gage[1]] ::looks at Phase and then Click:: Both ideas are plausible. We'll hold off on them until a about an hour
before the speech.
<[1]Cryz[1]> ..::looks from Drags to Mystique and
coughs:: Look, I'm not.. ..your Cryz.. I'm married to her.
<[1]Phase[1]> :::Smirks to himself::: ((Never thought I'd
get to be the lone gunman on the grassy knoll))
[[1]Gage[1]] <Mystique> ::grin:: Giving up so
easily? If he's anything like MY Cryz, I'd do more than that sister... ::looks
at Cryz:: Whos to say you weren't
married to her in my timeline?
::eyebrows pirched, then looks at Dragon::
<[1]Polaris[1]> ::Glances at Rhythm, only to turn her head
quickly, not wanting him to see her tears and such:: Adrian...why did she have
to be the one to go, it should've been me...I should've stopped her from...
::trails off::
<[1]Seraph[1]> ::stands up and stretches his wings out::
<[1]Shadowcat[1]> ::Rolls her eyes at the
Mystique/Cryz/Dragon situation and looks to mystique:: Mystique..you said it
yourself that we should get down to business..you aren't helping that process
any
<[1]Rhythm[1]> ::glances at Polaris then looks down:: It
shouldnt have been her.. or you. If only I had jumped that Sentinel sooner
<[1]Seraph[1]> ::walks to Gage:: what are we going to do
now?
<[1]Dragon`[1]> ::thought directed at Mystique, although
she doesn't move a muscle:: {{If you think I let go of anything or anyone
without a fight... your timeline's 'version' of me must not be much like me at
all}}
[[1]Gage[1]] <Mystique> *fake sigh* You're right
Kitty. You are trying to protect
me...so I'll leave poor Marky alone.
::slinks over to Seraph and leans against him, her hand caressing his
cheek:: You'll protect me, right?
<[1]Polaris[1]> ::Sighs:: What she did was brave....
::Squeezes her hand some::
<[1]Phase[1]> Boss, can I kill her, please? Can I, can I?
<[1]Seraph[1]> ::blinks and looks at her:: that.. was what
we were planning.. yes
<[1]Shadowcat[1]> ::shakes her head and looks to Dragon with
an expressiong and thought saying "That should help some"::
<[1]Click[1]> Mystique, please, put your mind on the task
in the future, not any tasks in the room
<[1]Seraph[1]> ::smiles nervously::
<[1]Cryz[1]> ..::mutters to himself and stands up,
heading for the door::
[[1]Gage[1]] ::looking back and forth between the
situation with Cryz, and everyone else that talking:: I... ::grits his teeth, a look of anger coming over his face,
powers up suddenly:: Polaris! Rhythm!
Out here! ::looks at Cryz:: ...and where in the hell do you think you're
going? ::looks at Mystique:: ...and
you...
<[1]Seraph[1]> ::jumps slightly at Gage's outburst::
<[1]Shadowcat[1]> ::blinks at Gage:: ((Wish this were
over..))
<[1]Phase[1]> I can just FEEL the love in this room. :::Pulls out his pistol, going about the
process of checking the clip and the workings:::
[[1]Gage[1]] <Mystique> Hmmm? ::grin, morphs back
to herself::
<[1]Polaris[1]> ::Hears Gage and sighs:: What has made our
great leader so angry... ::Stands and moves out of the room, and to where
everyone else is:: Yes Gage? What is it? ::eyes are red, from tears::
<[1]Myriad[1]> <<sorry i'm late.. sister insisted on
getting on the phone.. >.< >>
<[1]Rhythm`[1]> ::looks up when he hears Gage:: ((he must
be taking it even harder))
<[1]Rhythm`[1]> ::joins the rest of the team::
<[1]Cryz[1]> ::looks to Gage:: Where'm I going?
::shrugs:: Where's a 1/2 ton slab of crystal go? ::shifts to crystal:: Damn
near wherever he wants..
<[1]Click[1]> Cryz, stay. We have work to do. Don't make
me detain you.
<[1]Dragon`[1]> ::watches from her post by the window,
still tense and angry-looking::
<[1]Rhythm`[1]> ::not really listening to the others.
Looking at his right hand and squeezes it closed::
<[1]Polaris[1]> ::Sits off, and sighs, arms wrapped around
her stomach lightly, finger tips tapping at her side, annoyed like::
<[1]Phase[1]> :::Reholsters his pistol::: Boss, why not
just off the nimrod now and be done with it?
<[1]Seraph[1]> ::looks at Mystique again, then to Gage::
[[1]Gage[1]] ::looks at Mystique:: You EVER change into one of us agin...or
even try to mess with our minds, and swear to god, I'll kill you myself, and
then I'll kill Crred! All for the
timeline right? It won't make a
difference, because, hey! You never
existed. ::looks at Cryz:: Situation dealt wit. Stay...*under his breath* please?
[[1]Gage[1]] <Mystique> ::face goes cold, but stays quiet::
<[1]Rhythm`[1]> ::going over the 1st time he met Eve::
<[1]Seraph[1]> ::notices Mystique's expression:: its
alright, he doesn't mean to be cruel.. but we do need to sort this out
<[1]Cryz[1]> ::folds his arms on his chest, looking
around before reverting to flesh:: Fine.. I'm gonna need something off the co..
body, before we get going.. ::gestures:: my time thingy got caught between me
and a brick wall during that runin with the Rhino..
<[1]Polaris[1]> ::Closes her eyes annoyed like, and then
looks to Gage:: Is there some reason you called us Gage? You sounded angry...
what is it?
<[1]Rhythm`[1]> ::says outloud:: she's the 1st one i met...
<[1]Shadowcat[1]> ::Looks to Polaris:: Lorna..he's dealing
with it..just give him time
<[1]Polaris[1]> ::Glances to Shadowcat and nods, sighing::
Alright.... I guess Eve's death is taking a toll on everyone... ::glance leaves
Kitty and falls to the ground, where another tear would fall::
[[1]Gage[1]] ::nods to Cryz, then looks at
Polaris:: I'm sorry, I didn't mean to
yell...but...we do need to get going on whatever we're gonna do.
<[1]Cryz[1]>
::heads into the room where Eve's body
is::
<[1]Phase[1]> :::Mutters::: At the moment, it looks like
we're just spinning our wheels and pissing each other off.
[[1]Gage[1]] ::looks at Mystique:: You get your...plasma rifle or whatever
ready. We're heading to Central Park in
ten minutes. We're gonna find this time
traveller and get the hell out of here.
::scans everyone in the room::
<[1]Rhythm`[1]> ::backs off into a corner and sits on the
floor, squeezing his head tight as if to stop tihnking:: god, i feel numb
<[1]Dragon`[1]> ::rubs a hand across her face, quietly::
<[1]Polaris[1]> ::Nods and looks at him, wiping her eyes::
Why did it have to be her? She didn't deserve any of this... we should've just
listened to the Sentinels and stopped firing...it's not right...nothing is...
::shakes her head and takes a deep breath, hands visibly shaking, as she
listens to Gage::
<[1]Shadowcat[1]> ::small frown as she moves over to Polaris
and puts an arm around her shoulder:: Everything's going to be ok..::moves her
towards a chair::
<[1]Seraph[1]> if it doesn't happen for 12 hours.. why
leave in 10 minutes?
<[1]Phase[1]> Well, if we're moving along, should I look
into something a little more long-range effective than this? :::Motions to his holster:::
<[1]Dragon`[1]> ((he won't even try to speak to me... and
now this.. woman showing up and making her claims...))
<[1]Shadowcat[1]> But..you need to pull it together..we need
everyone on this ::Looks to Polaris and puts the best smile she can on::
[[1]Gage[1]] <Mystique> ::to Phase:: Come with
me. ::moves over to wall, presses a
hidden button, and the wall flips out into a gun rack::
<[1]Polaris[1]> ::Moves to a chair with Shadowcat and
nods:: I know...but everytime I think about it... Kitty it should've been
me...I can't help but say it over and over again...if on-... ::trails off::
<[1]Cryz[1]> ::silently slips out of the room where
Eve's resting and glances towards Drags:: ..((I'm sorry about all of this..))
<[1]Rhythm`[1]> ::using his knuckles to make circular
motions in his temple:: maybe she's not really dead, maybe when we got back to
our time she'll be okay...
<[1]Phase[1]> :::Looks at the gun rack, rubs his chin:::
Very nice, VERY nice. My opinion of you
has just doubled, my dear.
<[1]Dragon`[1]> {{why? it's hardly your fault...}} ::doesn't look up::
[[1]Gage[1]] <Mystique> If what you say is true...then I used one of these ::motions to
plasma rifles:: to kill Creed. For the sake of preserving your
timeline...you should probably use one as well...in case I fail.
<[1]Seraph[1]> ::turns to look out the window again::
((this just doesn't feel right at all))
<[1]Phase[1]> Of course, no reason to change the
timeline. :::Hefts one of the rifles:::
Looks like Christmas came early this year.
<[1]Cryz[1]> ::closes his eyes and sighs:: ((Does it
being my fault matter? You're upset..))
<[1]Dragon`[1]> {{When was the last time we had any kind of
real talk that wasn't about the mission or some emergency?}}
<[1]Shadowcat[1]> ::bends down some so she can look her in
the face:: You couldn't of possibly done anything..because you didn't..if you
could of..it would of happened..and I know it's awful to make yourself get on
with it so quick..but think about it..the sooner we get through with this..the
quicker you can lay on your bed and sob for a week ::small smile::
[[1]Gage[1]] ::moves over to Myriad:: Uhm...why don't you go get a gun as
well. ...and could you... *voice lowers
to a whisper* try and calm everyone down?
Especially me. We need to focus
and I'm...not setting a good example.
<[1]Myriad[1]> ..good idea.. but.. i'm not exactly.. very
good at aiming..
<[1]Polaris[1]> ::A nod:: Thanks Katherine. I'm going go
talk to Adrian. ::Moves towards Rhythm and stands infront of him,a rms laced
over her stomach:: Adrian......
[[1]Gage[1]] ::nods::
every bit helps...
<[1]Seraph[1]> ::sighs:: ((this just isn't fair))
<[1]Rhythm`[1]> ::brings his head in between his knees and
covers both ears with his hands:: ((.. the beach.. siberia..mangos.. Eve,
Lynda.Neil..))

[[1]Gage[1]] LOCATION> CENTRAL PARK
[[1]Gage[1]] SCENE> DAWN IS CREEPING UP ON THE CITY.
WE'VE JUST ARRIVED AND HAVE FANNED OUT INTO GROUPS LOOKING FOR ANYTHING
SUSPICIOUS.
<[1]Polaris[1]> ::Flying about the city looking around, her
tears all dried.. Mission...take out the first moron she sees:: Nothing up
here... ::glances downwards::
<[1]Phase[1]> :::Sitting up in a tree, looking around,
the rifle cradled in his lap:::
[[1]Gage[1]] ::by himself, moving down a nearly empty
path::
<[1]Shadowcat[1]> ::walking through an area near the stage
that's behind it::
<[1]Dragon`[1]> ::having slipped off by herself, maintains
a light psi-scan around where she walks, searching for unaccountable
presences::
<[1]Myriad[1]> ::..wearing the least damaging gun she could
get in a holster hidden under her shirt, praying she doesn't shoot herself in
the foot or something::
<[1]Cryz[1]> ::sighs to himself:: I'd rather be off
doing something interesting.. ..I suppose that's what happens when you don't
have a life beyond your work..
<[1]Rhythm`[1]> ::walks alongside Click::
<[1]Seraph[1]> ::looks around a group of bushes and trees
for anything suspicious, his wings currently cloaked::
[[1]Gage[1]] <Mystique> ::strolling around with Seraph::
So, what powers do you have besides wings?
<[1]Click[1]> ::looks around carefully, for something or
another suspicious::
<[1]Phase[1]> :::Taps one of the buttons on his watch:::
All's quiet on the western front, boss.
<[1]Seraph[1]> ::looks up at a tree into the branches:: I
can influence birds to do as I ask them to ::looks at her:: and my bird-like
bone structure seems to allow me to sing very nicely
[[1]Gage[1]] ACTION> ON THE GROUND BELOW PHASE, A BUM
IN HOODED RAGS SLINKS DOWN AGAINST THE TREE HE IS IN...
<[1]Seraph[1]> ::looks down:: its not really like that.. I
just like to think that way... when I sing it feels like it echoes all through
me.. but.. I don't think its anything special really
<[1]Polaris[1]> ::Lands besides Gage:: Nothing in the skies
Gage... ::walks with him slowly::
[[1]Gage[1]] ::nods, looking around, not talking::
[[1]Gage[1]] <Mystique> Can you see what they're seeing?
The birds I mean.
<[1]Polaris[1]> ::Grows silent, glancing around, fist
clenched at her side::
<[1]Dragon`[1]> ::stops walking, standing still for a
moment to cast out further with her mind::
[[1]Gage[1]] <<d'oh..forgot to sim as Twitch
too...anyways...he's with us...>>
<[1]Seraph[1]> ::shakes his head:: I've never been able to
do that.. I've tried before.. but I don't think I can do it like that
[[1]Gage[1]] <Twitch> ::by himself somewhere in the park::
<[1]Phase[1]> :::Going through one of his pockets::: Now
I know I put some gum somewhere.
[[1]Gage[1]] <Mystique> Thats a shame...it would be a good way for some
reconnaisance.
<[1]Cryz[1]> ::walks around the park, heading towards
where the speech's set to take place::
<[1]Seraph[1]> ::nods and sighs quietly::
<[1]Shadowcat[1]> ((There's nothing out here where I am
yet..)) ::looks towards the stage and phases through it just to check for anything..avoiding
any equipment she could damage to end up back behind the stage and nods to Cryz
as he gets closer and moves back towards a tree as she unphases::
[[1]Gage[1]] ACTION>
THE BUM SUDDENLY LOOKS UP INTO THE TREE AND SEES PHASE. WITH AN ANGRY LOOK HIDDEN BY HIS HOOD, THE
BUM REACHES OUT WITH A TK GRIP AND FLINGS PHASE TO THE GROUND. DRAGS, CLICK, MYRIAD AND TWITCH ALL SENSE
THE TK/TP POWERS IN USE.
<[1]Dragon`[1]> ::opens her eyes, startled, and breaks into
a run, heading for the spot, trying to sense more about the one wielding the
power::
<[1]Phase[1]> AAHHH!!!
:::Crashes to the ground, coughs out a mouthful of sod::: I don't
remember the weather saying anything about sudden updrafts.
<[1]Click[1]> ::looks towards the direction it came from
and starts to run after it::
<[1]Seraph[1]> What about you? Do you have any other powers?
[[1]Gage[1]] <Bum> ::tk's all the rocks fo various sizes, from pebbles to basketball
sized, and hurls them at Phase::
<[1]Cryz[1]> ::looks around and sees people start running
and shrugs to himself before chasing after them::
[[1]Gage[1]] <Mystique> Oh, I"m full of suprises.
::grin::
<[1]Phase[1]> Jesus H. Christ! :::Moves behind a park bench::: Come on, I'm broke! I can't give you any money!
<[1]Shadowcat[1]> ::blinks at Cryz and heads after him::
((What in the world..))
[[1]Gage[1]] ACTION> ALL DRAON CAN SENSE IS A MIND
SET ON ACCOMPLISHING IT'S TASK.
<[1]Seraph[1]> ::blinks:: ah.. ::smiles for a moment
before turning to look towards the noise:: I think something's wrong
[[1]Gage[1]] <Mystique> This way. :;runs toward
the commotion::
<[1]Seraph[1]> ::follows after her::
<[1]Click[1]> ::keeps running as his mind reaches out to
Gage's:: {{I sense, telepathic powers in use towards<<whereever it
is>> Im going after it now}}
<[1]Dragon`[1]> ::slows, concentrating on the mind, and
attempting a psionic blast at it::
[[1]Gage[1]] ACTION>
ANYONE WHO HASN'T REALIZED THERE'S SOMETHING GOING ON, DOES NOW AS
PHASES YELLING IS HEARD BY THEM.
[[1]Gage[1]] ::hears Phase and start toward the
yell::
<[1]Shadowcat[1]> ::phases as she floats up and moves herself
quickly to add force as seh unphases and dives at the bum::
[[1]Gage[1]] <Twitch> {{I sense them too lad...almost there}}
<[1]Polaris[1]> ::blinks and takes to the sky, running
towards the cry:: Oh no...
[[1]Gage[1]] ACTION> EVERYONE GATHERS ON THE SCENE
AND SEE PHASE HANGING BY HIS LEG IN MID AIR, THE BUM STANDING NEEAR HIM.

bum, trying to ensnare him::

Let him go now! ::words roll off her tongue like poison::

crystal:: Alright.. I think you've had your fun.. let him go..

instead::
[[1]Gage[1]] ACTION> EVERYONE SUDDENLY FEELS A PAIN
IN THEIR HEAD, AS IF KNIVES WERE CUTTING INTO THEM.

knees::
<[1]Dragon`[1]> Aagh!! ::drops to one knee, trying to
reinforce her psi-shields::
<[1]Click[1]> Gah ::wraps his hands around his head,
trying to deflect the mind attack::
<[1]Phase[1]> CHRIST!
:::Clutchs the sides of his head, gritting his teeth::: Get outta my
head!
[[1]Gage[1]] <Twitch> Gah! ::reaches out with
his mind and sheilds Polaris, Searph, and Kitty, those closest to himself::

falling to her knees from the air::
[[1]Gage[1]] ACTION> CLICK AND DRAGON ARE BOTH ABLE

head, falling to a knee as his crystal form becomes less detailed and
featureless::

least..and then blinks as Twitch helps her some..she holds onto her head and
stands herself up..an dmoves back:: ((SOB..))

and tries to block the attack from Cryz as well, through their psilink::

[[1]Gage[1]] <Bum> ::drops Phase, then moves to look at Mystique::
[[1]Gage[1]] <Myustique> ::squinting, trying to see past the attack, but obviously
confused::
<[1]Phase[1]> Not again!!!! :::Crashs to the ground again, rolling to absorb some of the
impact:::

against the tree::

tendrils::

::Whispers:: -NOT- another one... ::Moves to lift his head up some:: Hey are
you okay?
[[1]Gage[1]] ACTION> THE PSI-BOLTS HIT THE BUM,
DIZZYING HIM AND MAKING HIM STOP ATTACKING MYSTIQUE AND DROPS HIS TK
SHIELD.
<[1]Phase[1]> :::Looks at Polaris, pained look on his
face::: Got any asprin? I've got one
HELL of a headache.
<[1]Shadowcat[1]> ::gets over to Mystique and tries to help
her up:: You allright?
[[1]Gage[1]] <Mystique> Fine. ::stands, and pulls
her plasma-rifle from her chest and aims it at the bum::
<[1]Click[1]> ::goes to wrap his tendils around the bum
again::
[[1]Gage[1]] ::sees Mystique:: No! Don't kill him!
<[1]Seraph[1]> ::looks at Mystique:: we need to know who
this person is
[[1]Gage[1]] <Bum> ::gets ensnared in Twitch's tendrils, but then teleports a few
feet away::
<[1]Dragon`[1]> So shoot him in the knees and then maybe
he'll talk... and he certainly won't be stopping anything from happening.
<[1]Click[1]> eh? Huh? Wha? ::looks around::
<[1]Polaris[1]> ::A shake of the head:: No... I don't...
rest here, I have something to take care of ::Flies up and towards the Bum,
hands glowing as she'd launched a magnetic force beam at him, eyes narrowed::
[[1]Gage[1]] <Bum> :;teleports out of Polaris' way, but ends up near Cryz::
<[1]Myriad[1]> ::..blinks and starts moving towards the
group:: ((...they're.. agitated..))
<[1]Polaris[1]> Cryz... get him! ::Calls out, fly over near
them::
<[1]Seraph[1]> ::looks around for the bum::
<[1]Cryz[1]> ::eyes the Bum:: If I don't attack you,
will you not attack me? ..That's a stupid question, but I figured I might as
well ask, even though it never works..
<[1]Phase[1]> :::Gets slowly to his feet, wobbling
slightly::: Boss, I wanna vacation!
[[1]Gage[1]] <Bum> ::just looks at Cryz, and starts at Myriad::

grabbing her gun and shooting towards the Bum's foot::
[[1]Gage[1]] ACTION> THE BUM TUMBLES AFTER BEING SHOT
IN THE FOOT AND LANDS NEAR DRAGON.
<[1]Myriad[1]> ::..blinks again:: ..wow.. i hit him?..
<[1]Dragon`[1]> ::pins the bum with tk, hoping that the
pain from his foot will keep him from teleporting again, and moves closer,
looking down at him::
[[1]Gage[1]] <Bum> ::unable to move and scared, just passes out::
<[1]Seraph[1]> is this the person we are looking for? ::looks at Mystique:: it seemed too easy
<[1]Cryz[1]> ::reforms himself to look like normal then
reverts to flesh:: Well that was.. sure interesting, to say the least.. ::heads
over::
[[1]Gage[1]] <Mystique> I don't know. He's from
you're timeline.
<[1]Polaris[1]> ::Binks and lands sighing:: This is too
much..... ::said to herself, as she walks off from everyone else, off to the
farside::
[[1]Gage[1]] <Twitch> 'e certainly fits the descriptions...power wise, that is.
