Tech Terrors!

It took some time for Velocity to describe the device to Daedalus. He had lots of impatient questions, and seemed quite unsatisfied by her answers.

"There was no such device at the other scenes, and with that red glow, I'm afraid that it will teleport away when the bats do. There's no time for me to get there and dismantle it. Get the Emissary or Hybrid to rip it off. Try to keep as much of it intact as possible. If it is still glowing . . . like it is about to teleport away . . . smash it, but not too much." Daedalus seemed very unsatisfied with the imprecision of his own answers. "If the device teleports away, we have nothing. If you guys completely demolish it, we have nothing. I need to break it just enough . . . " After a moment to let his words sink in. "Daedalus out."

Velocity sighed, this was of course not easy. She looked back over at where Emissary and Hybrid were and in a flash had zipped back down the side of the Astro Labs’ building, crossed the distance to the other building and ran back up the side to the rooftop.

“Emissary!†She yelled out. “There is some sort of device over on the main dish over there!†The young speedster pointed over back at Astro Labs. “Daedalus wants you or Hybrid to rip it off the dish, if it is still glowing red, he needs it damaged, but just a bit, so it won’t disappear!â€Â

Hybrid squints in the direction Velocity points. "Okay got it!"

he yelled bck to her and flew over to the building planning to swoop down and use some muscle to grab anything that matched Velocity's description of the device.

The last bat was crunched under the blow and went spiraling down to the ground. It landed on a row of parked cars. Glass and steel went flying everywhere, and a dissonant chorus of car alarms filled the night air.

On top of the other building, Hybrid ripped off the metallic, antenna-covered box with ease. The striking red glow made it easy to find. The box continued to glow even after he dislodged it. It felt heavy in his hands . . . and really hard.

Velocity looked down over the edge of the building as there was the sound of crunching metal and glass and then several car alarms sounding off. “Ouch, hope they have a low deductible.†She commented, before looking back up.

â€ÂWe should see if Hybrid has the device under control.†With that she was gone in a blur, running back down the side of the building and back over and up the side of the Astro Labs’ building as she came to a halt near where Hybrid stood by the dishes.

Hybrid considered for a moment using the strength granted by his enhanced molecular cohesion to destroy the thing but dismissed it immediately as being to risky.

"A lighter touch is needed here."

He then mentally shifted gears on his body's density, becoming lighter and somewhat blurry around the edges until he was in a state of "phase". He then reached inside the box to pull something minor out without causing to much damage.

He winced as the destroyed robot impacted into the cars.

"That is at least several notes of apology I shall have to write.."

He moved at that over to Hybrid and Velocity, waiting to see if the machine could be disabled, and readying to strike out to it to destroy it and hopefully salvage something from the remnants in case it couldn't.

Hybrid's rearranged his molecular density and jammed his hand inside the device, trying his best to disable the circuitry. The red glow dimmed for a moment, and the device began to shudder and smoke, but after a second, the red glow returned even brighter and Hybrid watched as the device started to vanish right before his eyes. He only had seconds . . .
