... into the Proverbial fire...

by Cypher

Sandcrab (my hero) goes through the portal where Lindsay just showed us a bunch of swaying robots...
 
I grab my entourage (the band) and we head through the portal to follow Sandcrab. I notice that he's created a hole, and not wanting to fall into it, I move off to the side. The robots do not react to us at all.
 
As more of the team come through the portal the robots start to... for lack of a better word become antsy. One actually reacts to Blue Wave and makes to attack him. Blue Wave backs off and the robot relaxes. Not wanting to risk it coming at us again, I mind control it and send it to attack one of the other robo's.
 
Sandcrab, Wildthing and then Nemesis head through the opposite portal, and we lose connection to them.
 
Ghost starts to attack the other robots and they respond in kind. I ask her not to hit the one I'm currently controlling as I have a future use for it. She agrees.
 
An unknown female comes through the Portal our heroes went into and after trying to trick her she makes to go into "Our world" so I flash her. She, understandably gets upset with me, but manages to jump through the other portal anyway. Blue Wave tries to talk to her but she denies the name he calls her (Julie) and claims to be ISackIran. I may not have that name right...
 
After she goes though the portal, Windwalker, says "Shit, that was Istvatha, the conqueror of dimensions..." I look at her puzzled...
 
Two more people come through the portal and they really get Blue Wave ranting, looks like we have a fight starting.
 
I look into the portals to see if they are controlled by computers, and Bless me to pieces, they are. I have a quick conversation with the one heading to home and ask it to instead bump people back into this space instead of following its programming. It agrees to do as I ask! I thank it!
 
<Side note to GM (Runeforce)- Before creating the bumper, can I send through Stevie back to home with two tasks? One to try and stop ISackIran and the other to make contact with Socrates about this portal and maybe we can hijack it?>
