Attack of the Evil Grandfathers: Salvo
The Baxter Building's security was on high alert. Just as it should be. All the more cameras to watch the people line up and start beating against the glass. Pressed close as a riot. Pounding on the doors until their hands bruised, blistered, and bled..

Zeb didn't stand with them, of course. He was out of sight... but near enough that the pheremones wouldn't wear off easy. Not for a long, long time. He'd had this crowd primed.

The robots, so far, are weathering the attacks pretty well. Their armor is sophisticated, and seem especially prepared for chemically oriented attacks.

Things are a little off schedule, but some of the Canadian heroes had been difficult to predict, even for his models.

The robots pressed their attacks.

Once the initial shock wears off, Jordan gets into the swing of the fight. He's worked on some of the systems, knows the Box specs.

"No, you don't got this." he calls over coms.

"These things don't have Maddison piloting, so they probably make up for the adaptability by being specialized. So far, they're picking who is fighting who. We need to change it up. Mason, give us some walls, channel the fight towards me and give people something defensive to work with.

Alex, get out of the big form. You're a big target and they have heavy firepower. Try turning into something small enough to get into vents and intakes, then try and mess them up from inside as an electric eel or something - but don't try and match them blow for blow.

Mel, get into something safe, and start scouting for an active mind or emotions or anything around you can affect. If they're not being piloted, they may be being controlled. I want to know which.

Everyone else, take cover when Mason puts up shields, let me take the brunt, then launch a counter assault."

Nim managed to get herself back up, falling back behind cover.

Mel sinks into a sturdy little patch of earth and starts to haunt, get a feel for who's there.

Alex shrank down into a fly and headed right for one of the robots.

"Yes sir." Mason replies promptly, moving to follow Jordan's instructions.

He tries to get a lay of where the enemies are, then starts putting up the walls, giving his teammates time to get to cover where they want it before sealing up gaps in between them. He manages to inhale a few power bars along the way, but the defensive perimeter he's creating is going to start to strain him soon enough. If any robots try to come around the walls where they're not wanted, spikes suddenly spring up from them, impaling the constructs at their joints.

And the whispers start in the air around Alpha Flight eventually. "Over out on the Street. Parked Car. Someone."

Jordan moves to become the obvious target at the gap in his brother's construction, trying to channel robots towards him, instead of having them start trying to blast in at other points.

"I'll hold the attention here. Korra, can you follow Mel's directions, and try and find out who that is?"

The robots continued to direct the majority of their firepower at Jordan.

The Thinker, meanwhile, began to feel slightly apprehensive. "Reactions... not as disrupted as planned. Possibility of total failure is forty-percent."

"Imperious Regina!" she shouted, taking to the air and slugging one of the robots.

Jordan just digs in, holding up under the firepower. It isn't pleasant, but he's managing to provide a point of cover for the moment.

While caught off guard, and still heavily outgunned - if they can pinpoint the controls, they don't need to beat all the suits. Just stop the point they're controlled from.

Alex slipped into a crack in the robot's armor and flew inside. He shifted into a mouse, and while it was tight quarters, there was enough room. He started chewing on some wires.

Mason continues keeping up the defensive formation, making the walls higher and thicker, giving the robots fewer and fewer options to maneuver.

Now, under the renewed attack, the robots were starting to falter and break.

"Sixty percent chance of failure," the Thinker calculated. "Paralytic effect of Box-robots was somewhat less than expected. Hmm."

He shifted the car into gear, but did not yet get rolling.

Jordan is feeling this. All the firepower is definitely getting to him, but he manages to keep it up, weather the storm and taking advantage of the suits' willingness to take the seemingly easy route and try to get to him to get to the others.

"Korra, any luck at finding whoever is doing this?!"

"And now for some evasive maneuvers," the Thinker said to himself, tapping a button on the car's dash.

When he did, it rendered the car completely invisible, enabling him to peel away quite easily and undetected.

The fight, meanwhile, had gone out of the robots who had not yet been disabled, and they fell to the ground, inactive.

Nim looked at the falling robots with surprise and confusion. "...Why do I get the feeling this doesn't mean we won?"

"Almost everyone is at least a little hurt, they caught us off guard right in our own home, and whoever it is thinks little enough of these to just abandon them... which probably means they're armed with self-destruct sequences so I can't use the materials. Mason, build everyone a bomb shelter while I start investigating them."

Alex crawled out of the robot and shifted to a human. "What was all that about?" he asked.

"It's the Thinker." Korra said, finally getting a lock-on with here telepathy.
