I'm Setting Booty Traps.

[ngm_miscellaneous]

In the desert outside of Sedona, Arizona a large, metallic structure appeared after an evening of strange lights swooping and whirling around in the skies. A couple locals went into the one story structure to check it out. Their truck was still sitting outside of the strange building a day later. The police were called in. The local sheriff didn't trust the federal government, but he knew superheroes could probably handle whatever this thing was.

He put in a call to the Future Foundation. Then he sat back and waited. Also, he kept an eye on making sure no one else did something dumb like go into that thing like Larry and Daryl.

Ryan's shields held against the explosive onslaught. It was over quickly until what was left of the building was smoldering.

Remi's landing was softer and greener than he expected. He did hiss a little though. Explosions usually meant heat, and his Atlantean physiology did not take kindly to heat. He supposed he should try to get to his feet.

Instead, Remi just laid there blinking at the sky.

"Oooomph!" Mary let out a breath, the impact great, even though she'd prepped for it. "You gotta lay off the calamari, Remi."

"Ugh, calamari," Alexa looked a little green at the thought and swallowed hard before moving away from her rocky protector to drag Remi off of Mary if need be.

"Well that was bracing."

Someone should tell Griffin his lab coat is on fire. He's in shock so he doesn't really notice right away.

Here, Griffen. Have a massive, rocky hand patting at your back. Don't worry... FF health insurance totally covers chiropractor visits.

"Easy there, smokey."

"Unf," was about all the reply he had to Mary's quip. He rolled off his teammate, but he didn't quite manage his feet. He was a little dizzy and crispy. He did manage to stay on his knees at least.

"Jacob," he managed. "Take over."

There were probably local constables to get things squared away with. Someone who could probably think straight and not continually say 'I hate the desert' would probably be needed. Also, it would be Jacob's call when the team would wrap it up and head back to base.

Mary shifted back into her normal shape. "Anybody got any water? I think he needs it..."

"Well... guess we did all right," she said. "Not dead, anyway."
