Waltham, Massachusetts - March 5th, Afternoon​
Having arrived in Waltham and prepared their equipment (A slow process), the two agents who arrived with a truck were ready for an attempt to close a rift. Before they started, they advices that police be stationed at as many rifts as possible, but not too close, and that the civilian population was strongly advised to stay away from the rifts. They then drove out their truck to a rift, set up their equipment and the senior agent prepared himself mentally. The junior agent would just be monitoring the equipment, it was up to the senior agent to add the magic touch to the procedure.

Hotel Two, Noon

"I don't, usually, need them. But I suppose I could get some from a market, or failing that, pick them."

[color=e50000]"Impressive. I never heard of that term before - and it's not magic, right?
Do you know how you would fare against another psychic?"[/color]

Raz shook his head. "Other people have said it's kinda like magic, but I don't really think so. I think I could do pretty well against another psychic, I've done it before. Both of our brains ended up in the same tank and then there was this whole thing with a meat circus.... it would probably take a long time to explain."

Dala stared in disbelief. [color=e50000]"What?
Umm ... could you try to explain some of it? I'm interested, this sounds too crazy to be true."[/color]

Second Hotel, Pointe St-Charles, Montreal. Noon. March 5th

Entering the hotel, the fly spybot flew into the room the group was in. There, it recorded the conversation between Dala, and the group members she talked to.

Central Waltham, Massachusetts. Afternoon. March 5th

The police didn't have nearly enough manpower to position personnel at every known rift, but they complied with XPOL's recommendation as best as they could, stationing two cops at 35 locations. In their press conference on March 3rd, they had already advised civilians to stay away from any rifts.

While the XPOL team were setting up the portal, a duo of spybots circled above them, some 20 metres in the air, and recorded their activities.

Raz thought for a second. "Ok, so, there was this Dentist who was harvesting brains. He was working for someone who's name I probably shouldn't say. The head guy put his brain into a tank, like, a water tank, and then put that into a tank, the fighting kind. I fought that, but then I breathed in some of the Dentists sneezing powder and sneezed my brain out, which got into the same tank as the head guys. Our minds got scrambled, and the subconscious worlds of our minds combined. His involved a lot of meat, and mine involved... a circus... so it became a meat circus. I had to battle his, er, our, inner demons to escape. Did that help?"

Shana entered the hotel to find Raz and Dala conversing. She overheard something about a dentist harvesting brains and a meat circus.

"Um... did I come in at a bad time?" She raised an eyebrow.

[color=e50000]?Uh ... maybe?
I hope you don`t need to snort out your brain to fight a psychic.

And no, this as good of a time as any. I would like to get all of your help in a matter. Closing the portal to my world and getting the station back in order.?[/color]

[color=e50000]"So ... the mage called 'Blue' is guarding the portal, either herself or one of her illusions.
She is a powerful psychic, can control water and the blood inside a person's body, create illusions, like I said, and can counter magic.

I would need to stay about 5-10 minutes near the portal, undisturbed, to close it. So the plan would be first to see through her illusions - something Yauna can luckily make a potion for - then either destroy the illusion or defeat Blue.
If it is an illusion, and it is defeated, you would need to prevent Blue or anyone else from walking through the portal and disturbing me before the portal is closed. I'd like to have you help on this, and I want to plan it out. Yauna already can counter some illusions, you could fight her psychic abilities while others could pin her down, for example."[/color]

Raz nodded along as Dala spoke. "I could do that, anything else helpful you could tell me? Like how she fights, what kind of psychic abilities she has, that kind of stuff."

[color=e50000]"Well, for psychic abilities, she can cause you to lose or gain memories, can give you hallucinations and can sense enemies around her, making sneaking difficult.

Usually, she creates her illusions before a fight, mixing them between water-illusions who can fight with water themselves, and purely optical illusions, which will mimic her movements. She usually waits for an opening, then strikes hard and fast. She especially likes countering attacks. Either in the beginning of the fight or during it, when she feels overwhelmed, she might use her blood magic, trying to turn the body of one foe against the one of another. If there are many soldiers, unprotected from magic, she might even try to control all of them, to turn her disadvantage to an advantage."[/color]

Dala then looked to Shana. [color=e50000]"In an ideal scenario, she might be distracted by talking and joking with a person. She could do mean pranks, but it might distract her from fighting."[/color]

[color=ff9966]"Why should any of us even bother helping with this to begin with?"[/color] Nina piped up and asked Dala.

Throne room, otherworld. Past midnight

In the throne room, the Forefront portal opened up in the same place it had, earlier. Through it first came an technician - a person that looked very human, but with a facial structure that looked very off, wearing mostly grey work clothes. They were pushing a drum trolley, with a pylon on it. Stating what he came to do, the technician pushed the trolley to the side of a column, and began setting the pylon up, there.

Not long after the technician entered the room, however, the representative walked through again. If Blue was still present, he would approach her. If not, he would ask one of the guards in the throne room to call her.

"So you're asking me to talk with her to create a distraction? I'll try. I'm not all that good with jokes, I'm afraid."

[color=e50000]"You really don't need to if you don't want to. Just ... I saw you fight. You are my best shot at closing that portal."[/color] Dala said to Nina, eyeing her suspiciously, as she had witnessed Green getting drained, [color=e50000]"I'm not at all comfortable with this situation, I'm not used to it. If you don't want to help, fair enough. Though this is probably the one manipulating events behind the scenes, including the attack on all of you and the fight with White, even though she should not have done that.

And yes, Shana, just distracting her would be good already. In a fight, she can pay attention to all her illusions. Make her unconcentrated, and she's far less effective."[/color]

Blue was present in the room. She had sent an illusion back to defend the portal. She looked at the representative curiously.
