Tell me why I had to be a powerslave
WHO: ImPorts vs. the Cain Cabal: rematch round
WHERE: Enoch, uninhabited island off the coast of Florida
WHEN: Morning of Saturday, December 12th
WHAT: The Cain Cabal swapped imPort powers, burned a chunk of Heropa, and staged an ambush, all so they could live forever. Now they're going down- hard. Come arrest some villains! See this post for reference.
WARNINGS: Violence. Remember that any NPC deaths in this log will have to be processed through the plotting post!
For the second time in a week, the call goes out: heroes needed. This time, the authorities aren't asking for volunteers to fight fires: it's to help fight the people who started the violence in Heropa last weekend. This time, it's not a trap. It's payback.
This tropical island has long been uninhabited (or supposedly uninhabited) for a reason. There really isn't much here besides sand, trees, and the odd wandering animal, many of them escaped from the Cabal's labs. Who knows how the Cabal was able to build a base out here in secret and keep it running for years- the cost must have been astronomical. But promises of eternal life have a way of attracting money and resources, and the Cain Cabal has no shortage of either.
That all ends today, though. Thanks to imPorts, the secret is out: the Cabal has been exposed. Your characters know who their enemy is, where to find them, and that they have their own Porter copy which must be neutralized to reverse the power swap. All they need to do is enter the enemy's heavily-defended trap-laden doom-fortress and bring down a secret society. Just another day for a group of heroes, right?

[Megaman's fine for now, relatively speaking - he's gotten nicked pretty good a couple times (and shrieked very, very loudly at one point when one virus gave him an extreme close-up of whatever passes for teeth on these things) but it's all frame damage. Nothing critical, just painful and annoying. He knows better than to expect that luck to last, though, especially when he has to keep jumping in front of the swarm just to get them to go after him instead of the data. What he wouldn't give for a couple Spreader chips right now - or hell, a Program Advance; one good Hyper Burst would work miracles here.]

[ If he were smarter goddammit. His head throbs any time it gets close to a breakthrough and he hates it. Ugh. How does he make this better? He can't lose Megaman to this, he can't--! Megaman's already saved him so many times ...
So find a different angle, dummy. He pauses for a moment as he think through his options. If he can't increase the connection speed, he has to make sure Megaman can survive ten minutes. That's what he needs to do. ]
-- I'll program something for you, okay? What do you need?
no subject
Offensive program! Something big - something with spread! Area targeting, splash damage, something that'll clear a lot of them at once!
[He deeply regrets he can't memory share with Hiro while he's out there, he really wants to send him the visuals for what he wants.]
no subject
[ It's less something programmed from scratch and more a mass-deletion program jerry-rigged into something Megaman can use. Good thing Hiro's been studying up on those programs recently. Still, Megaman should take care not to delete part of himself. ]
Try this!

He only does that on purpose.It takes a bit for him to get the breathing room he needs to really aim the program properly and not risk hitting the important data. That means a lot of dodging and kiting and getting hit a few more times, so enjoy listening to that for a bit.]
How many times can I fire this off? [Translation: how big of a stupid risk should he take with his targeting.]

Uh - I dunno, until it breaks? I'll keep working on another weapon, so just use it as much as you can okay?
