Shadow reacted swiftly, thrusting with his scythe as it morphed into a large spike extending from his arm.

Quick Draw for the transformation of the scythe, and assuming I understand this right, Sleight of Hand to try to get the necessary hit in before he's demolished, and if the hit is successful, attempt to Transfer using my scythe.
 
Shadow moved in a blink of an eye, milliseconds before Ansel blasted him. However, the assassin manage to flare one more resistance to Shadow's Scythe's absorption. He didn't take much of his Darkness controlling powers, but he did take some. Ansel's hand made a small flash of light and then a wave of energy exploded out of his hand and landed on the Assassin.
After the light cleared, you see the assassin rolling away. You can tell he was still alive from his yelling of pain. He tumbled into the crowd.

1. Shadow thrusts his weapon into the Assassin. The Assassin made a fortitude save & resisted the transfer. "Assassin 19 vs 4 + 2 Wis Shadow" Shadow gained 1 Darkness Power Point
2. Ansel hits Assassin with Blast Rank 5 vs target's Fort Save. "Blast Rank 5 + (18 Critical = 36) vs Toughness Save 40
3. The assassin hits a wall getting Bruised

Ansel stared at the still living man in disbelief for a moment before laughing out loud. "I'll be honest, I didn't really expect you to survive that! But don't worry- I'll put you out of your misery soon enough!" Ansel launched himself at the assassin, attempting to drive his knee into the man's stomach. It was not necessarily a fatal attack, but no one said that Ansel was a particularly honest man.
 
Shadow flexed his hand before his scythe returned to its prior armlet form. "I've got this covered," he said, less than a moment before vanishing into the crowd in pursuit of the assassin.
 
Shadow fades through the darkness and appeared just as the assassin was getting a knee shoved into him from Ansel crippling th assassin. Blood came from his mouth and fell upon Shadow's Shoes.
 
"Hmm. Well this was fun, but your time is up. Now die!" Ansel made to drive his fist through the assassin's skull, not caring where he was or what his group was actually supposed to be doing.
 
Shadow kicked the assassin in the center of his chest, using his foot to guide the man down onto his back. Shadow looked down at him as his scythe took its true form again before he slashed downwards, the blade's contact beginning at the side of the man's neck with the intent to behead him.

Quick Draw, Accurate Attack
 
"My god. "

The Crinis muttered in disbelief. Looking over at the woman who was to be their commander for the foreseeable future, he raised an 'eyebrow' as he had seen so many humans do.

"These two are barbarians.

What have you gotten me into Mrs. Blake?"
 
Ansel & Shadow Brutally murder the assassin through skull crushing and silting. Orange blood spilled all over the metal floor, carrying bits of skull an brain. The two of you hear from the crowd a series of "Oh My God!" and disgust filled noises. One man even threw up in the crowd.
As the crowd continues Aach-Ti, Ansel & Shadow hear Sek approaching shouting, "Grandma, Grandma!"

He takes one look at the mess that used to be a highly skilled killer and said, "Ho-ly-crap. Was that guy supposed to be the trouble I heard about?"

As you three notice Sek, you also notice that an entire fleet of other Super Heroes surround the scene. Plenty of screaming and yelling takes place. Eventually the phrase 'Captain Martin' fills the air. Soon enough, You see people point out this Captain Martin.

This man is the 'Principal' of this Academy. You know that he is the son of Kyle & Samantha Martin. He took this job when you where still in apprenticeship with Mrs. Blake

C.P. says to the crowd, "Do not worry people, this situation is under control! Please go back to your lives, and stay just as cheery as ever!" The crowd gives a short laugh and start to go about their business with only a few lingering eyes watching you.
"So Aunt Stace, How are things?"
"Fairly ok, considering my life was threatened today. These good boys kept me from death."
Captain Martin looks at the group. "Well don't be shy, come on over! Tell me about yourselves."

Ansel stood up, shaking bits of gore off of his hand and gave Captain Martin an appraising glance. "I'm Ansel. I'm a genetically engineered bio-weapon. Nice to meet ya, I guess."
 
Shadow allowed his scythe to return to its armlet form as he bent the light around them to create an illusion, causing the devastated remains of a man lying in a puddle of blood to look as if it were simply a man who had slipped in an oil slick and been knocked unconcious.

Once the center of attention had been covered up, he joined the others. "Shadow," he said simply, glancing at the Captain with eyes that were hidden by the shade of his hood. "I'm a reaper, of sorts, although I no longer collect souls as a profession."
 
"Ah, Captain Martin."

Aach-Ti says, bowing to the man before them. Being a part of the Academy his entire life, and being a special circumstance, the Captain and him have had occassional run-ins. This was not to say that they were particularly close, but at least the man should know his name.

"Pardon the.. graphic nature of this assassination attempt.
My partners here are efficient, but often over-zealous."
 
Ansel snorted at the comment, but otherwise didn't add anything else to the conversation.
 
Sek approaches Captain Martin, but does not say anything. CP doesn't even notice him.

Captain Martin looks to Mrs. Blake and asks, "I take it this is the team thats protecting you out there?"
"Yes it is."
Captain Martin takes in a deep breath and says, "Aunt Stacy, I can'y approve of this mission of yours. You know that."
"That is why I am going on 'vacation' to clear my old senile head." She gives a large smile.
Captain Martin raises his voice a little bit, "Look, we both know what your doing, but I can'r stop you either."
"Stop me from relaxing my own bones...?" Mrs. Blake asked still keeping up the act.
"In the outer reaches of space?!?" Captain Martin's voice rose even more. His so far electronics voice is slightly over shadowed by his real voice.
"Why yes. Is that not ok?"
"Legally, yes... But if your going to play that game I'm sending my student with you."
Mrs. Blake gestured her hand to the group, "I have an escort already. Unless my team is not up to standards?"
 
Ansel snorted, his massive arms folded in front of his chest. "Buddy, this team is already overstaffed, trust me. The more people you send along, the more people I'll have to work around."
 
"Whatever you say Captain, but if I may..

I believe that I have proven myself to be a capable, loyal member of the Academy.
I would like to use this as both a test of my abilities, and a show of faith from the school."

The Crinis says, stone faced and business like. Any sign of weakness would surely force the Captain to deny his request. It was a long shot as it is. Still, this would be a clear break from the title of 'Student' to 'Agent' in one fell swoop. He had to pick his words carefully..

"It would mean a lot to me sir, and to the people of the universe.
A Psionic Crinis allowed to travel the stars unsupervised once again?
This could be a day for the history books, sir."

Diplomacy Check on the Captain.
 
Captain Martin looks at the Crinis Protégé stares strait in the eyes, glaring. After a moment, He looks away and gabs something off of his armor's thigh, handing to Aach-Ti, "If you come into any trouble, do, NOT hesitate to contact me. Understand?"
 
Standing at attention, the Crinis salutes the Captain. It takes all of his willpower not to wiggle his tentacles in excitement. This is it! His big test! If everything goes well.. this could mean for a drastic change for his whole species.

"Sir, yes sir."
 
Captain Martin turns back to Mrs. blake and says, "I still think you're not going to find anything, but, if you are going on 'vacation' then You'll need to handle some things with the council."
Mrs. Blake's tone drops ash she says, "The more time we spend dealing with these political squabbles, the more time innocent lives are waisted!
C.M replies, "I don't care if you are right, but either way you have the most pull with the others. I need you to-"
Mistress Blake smiles and says, "I need to talk to Mr. Martin for a moment. Could you three amuse yourselves? I wont be to long."

If all three of you say to wait at the ship, then I'll auto continue.

Sek gives a sigh of relief, "Good, I still wana put some finishing touches on the Steel Wing anyway."
Mistress Blake gives a chuckle and Captain Martin says, "Heh, funny." The pair walks off.
"Thanks Dad..."
 
While tempting, Aach-Ti knew damn well that intruding on a conversation with his higher ups would be detrimental to his career. Even if he thought he would not get caught reading the Captain's mind. Instead he turns to the others,

"We should get on the ship.

...

Good job by the way boys."
