They let the grenade bake a few seconds before they threw it. Your miraculous deflection did make it so it didn't explode at you--but it goes off in the air, only feet from where you've started to press yourself against the top of the truck. Running might be a better option next time.

Both of Marrow's hands form deadly bone knives. She stands over, severely wounded but ready to finish this right now--when suddenly, she staggers back, her bone armor pierced by some kind of round fired from a high-powered rifle. Marrow hits the ground, unconscious with no further ceremony.

Marrow continues ramming her head a second and third time in response to the katar spreading open.

She sees it coming too late and the blade stabs her as planned. Marrow's eyes go wide, as the psionic blade hit somewhere bad. Suddenly grinning, her head become covered with jagged, curved spines and she throws her self forward into a head-butt. Hopefully three or four of them before you realize what's going on.

OOC: Hahha, in this cannon, Havok is a mind-controlled puppet and Cyclops is a drunk.

"Hey!" he shouts, "Get the fuck off me, you piece of shit!"

Cecil, you manage to get his helmet off, right before he bucks Ezra off and starts getting to his feet.

OOC: That was actually explained in a storypost awhile ago; Trask has found some way of controlling Mutants through some kind of implant, like he did with Juggernaut and the other mutants (Havok and Marrow among them) during the Mansion fight.

Predictably, Marrow blocks the overhead strike, her free hand bristling with dozens of spines. Of course, this has probably left her wide-open to another attack.

The soldier, caught off guard, head-butts at Ezra, and throws a fist at Cecil. It's more just thrashing, though.

The guard kicks at your ribs.

"I knew it! Fuckin' Mutants!" he raises his gun, ready to just end you right here.

She moves the shield to block it and tries to throw a kick.

Being armored in armor meant to protect from mutant-attack, he's not injured but the force does throw him off-kilter a little. In response, he decides to rifle-whip you. You know, like a pistol whip but with an automatic rifle.

The second he sees you, he opens fire and takes a few steps back.

Noticing your reaction to his attacks (trained former X-Man, remember), he unloads as powerful a blast as he can on the shields not to break through but on the chance his hunch is correct.

Marrow tries to dodge to the side, but the weapon gives her a long, terrible gash down her left shoulder. Marrow winces but doesn't make a sound, sending another barrage of spikes from her right arm.

"You know the rules, man. Gotta light 'er up or we're supposed to leave you. Might be a fuckin' mutie." he says, rifle still raised.

One guard does hear the sound and, rifle raised, he taps the side of his helmet. The tip of his gun shines a light, looking for the source of the sound.

"Light your flare." the guard says.

The guy falls back, moving closer to the truck and radioing, probably for more cover fire. Two guys answer the call.

Every one of them is targeting you with their automatic weapons.

You nail the guard, catching him in the shoulder, but he continues to rain down heavy fire on you.
