A bullet hits Dinari in his shoulder and he falls to the ground. He wimpers about his lost wealth and the pain. But then, suddenly something takes over his mind. His eyes turn red and his body trembles. Within a few moments, he turns into a giant polar bear, one many feet taller than the already impressive ones in the wild. Dinari is part Ursarian, but this is the first time anything like this has happened to him.
"Grraaaaaaaaaww!!" The bear growls. It charges foreward through bullets and explosions to grab Lady Blue in its slobering mouth.
Now much stronger and faster, Dinari the massive polar bear rushes towards the nearby teleportation booth.

I growl and grab another thermite canister, my last one, and toss it at Archetype as I continue to run. The teleport booth is in sight, I just hope we get there in time... I am then surprised to be grabbed by the bear that is Dinari, but for some reason I don't panic... At least not yet!
(Tech note: When thermite explodes it sends globs of white-hot liquid iron flying all over the place)

The giant bear throws Lady Blue in the teleporter and nuzzles the buttons to send her off somewhere. The random teleportation sends her to Tel -Aviv.
Dinari starts nuzzling the buttons to send himself somewhere as well...

The missile slams into the wall blocking the two from Archetype’s view with devastating effects.
With a deafening BOOM! the rocket detonates, a wall of brick quickly turning into a wall of fire as the plasma and shrapnel tear the alleyway apart. Large slabs of brick and wall, both aflame and smoking, fly towards the two fleeing persons. A large section of wall collapses onto the teleportation booth, and more still is hurled through the air towards the bear and Lady Blue.
Archetype 401 steps through the smoking ruble, no longer is there any “corner” to turn down, for the part of the alley away from the main street has been all but destroyed. With a click, the MGA once again sprays the area with thousands of bullet rounds, just as another rocket slides into place, already locking in on Lady Blue who is now inside of the collapsing booth.
This time around, Archetype is more or less lucky, as the mine explodes on a chunk of spiraling rock that was thrown from the wall by the Android's missile. It explodes harmlessly in the air, sending small pebbles to tumble off of Archetype's thick armor.

The collapsed wall destroys the booth before Dinari can escape.
Crushed by the wall and the destroyed booth, the bear lets out a pained growl and turns back into Dinari's human form. The rapid transformation and pain causes Dinari to pass out.

"Dammit!" I shout when I see that Dinari didn't follow me through. I try to hit the recall button, but the teleporter we just left isn't responding. All I can do is watch the net and wait...

Archetype 401 seems to let out a mechanical cackle as he slows his run as he nears the fallen man. He reaches down with his powerful mechanical hands and clasps the man firmly to his chest, yanking him out from under the ruble violently.
The Android has made his first catch, one that was willing to fight Red Infinity it seems. He grins as he digs his claw-line finger tips into the mans backflesh, letting small droplets of blood oil his hinges.
And with a bright flash of light, both the Android and the capitalist disappear, leaving behind only a smoking scorch on the ground where they once stood, and a smoldering pile of debris upon a crushed teleportation booth.
((I used my abduction skill to transfer us to the Ministry of Terror's torture chambers.))

I groan again. My throat is dry, especially after having a cigarette, and I am hungry. "C'mon guys..." I mutter.

I grimace as I watch the teleport booth go off the net. "d**n it all!" I shout, and punch in the coordinates for Helsinki. At least I can try to track down my father.

Kaschei watched everything and was very impressed. Capitalists and Ursarians have been a thorn in Red Infinity's side for sometime. He sends a message to Lin-Sat that Archetype 401 captured Dinari Dollar and that the capitalist is now being held at the Ministry of Terror.

Dinari wakes up sometime later in a cell at the Ministry of Terror. He rubs his eyes and tries to remember what happened.
"Where am I? What...uh.."
He looks around to see he that he is now in Red Infinity custody.
"d**n.."

Before Garret leaves to meet with Linnea, he sees that Zero is awake. He goes to the kitchen and gets her some water.
"Hey Zero, how are you feeling?"

"Like nuts." I say, but I smile when I say it. "But it was worth it... I haven't seen you in a long time Garrett." I say tiredly.

((Oops, I thought I clicked the "post" button, but it didn't post... sooooo... this is what happened BEFORE you woke up.))
Archetype 401 appeared in the prison/torture cells of the Ministry of Terror with a bright flash of light. Energy crackled and zapped at the walls, leaving scattered black spots that sizzled and smoked for a moment or two.
Without hesitation, the Android throws the man into the far wall, using his motor powered arms to hurl Dinari into the solid stone, steel enforced wall. Scanning his body for weapons, Archetype 401 walks over to him and lifts the man up by the scruff of his neck, his blade-like finger tips easily lacerating the soft half-human flesh.
Giving the limp body a rough shake, a few weapons fall from his clothing. Then removing all other solid-material weapons from the man (obviously, I can’t remove your magic attacks, etc) , he dump him in a corner and leaves the room to recharge his fuel cells.

"Yeah, well I've been just hanging out with Linnea a lot. Hey, maybe the three of us should go out for burgers and malts." Garret suggests.
"It's been a long time since we've gone out the three of us. A big juicey burger will get your strength back!"
