Into the Dark
The security guard led the Titans into what looked like a conference room. When inside, he removed a cigarette and lit it up.

"First off, thanks for coming. Second, you're not going to like how little I can actually tell you. Before you fly off the handle it's because I literally don't know, not because of confidentiality crap."

	"The Scarab might be able to figure out a way to talk to it," Dinah said. "If we get close enough for him to see if there's a language in the first place..." She shook her head. "We're burning time. We need to move." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"You're right. Here, take my-urk!" The scientist is cut off as the security officers hand had morphed into a sharp weapon. His skin was quickly changing as the nanomachines took hold. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Its not long from surprise to reaction. The Hawk side is good for that, at least. Jay takes a swing at the morphing security guard. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Cait could feel the water in pipes in the wall and she pulled with all of her abilities. Pipes burst and water came spraying out. It swirled around the guard's legs and started to solidify. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Jay's blow knocks the guard back, giving him little time to react to Cait. His legs now stuck, he snarled and lashed out impotently in an effort to reach the Titans. Nearby was the scientist's fallen pass to the basement level..where Kardiak awaited them. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"EM-Blaster... NOW!" Dinah shouted, her arms morphing into guns. She fired an electromagnetic pulse blast at the guard. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	The EMP blaster seemed to work as the nanites all deactivated, causing the guard to suddenly fall in place, though bent in an awkward position due to its entrenched feet. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Okay," Dinah said, as she kept up with the others, "good news is EMPs work. Bad news is, I won't be able to do that again for at least twenty minutes." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

It's not long before they see a scene like something out of a horror movie. The "beating" is quite loud now, as the massive heart-like organism has covered most of the room with its crystallized substance. A security guard laid prone against the wall, but was breathing.

It was then a mostly metallic humanoid walked into the line of sight of the Titans, looking at them. "You hurt us," it said, as if straining to speak.

	"You hurt the people here." Jay growls back at it, eyes narrowing. Not much sympathy here. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	While Jay and Dinah were conversing with the thing, Cait was slowly pulling all of the water out of the air and forming into small spheres that started to orbit around her. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
