"There is no easy way. He has other worldly tech protecting the facility. You'd have to go in of your own free will. Through the front door."

"What's waiting for us when we go through the front door?"

"Probably slavery. They'll use you for the same thing they used her for. A baby maker, and a DNA splicer. A test subject. Various other projects of a psychotic nature."
The queen clenched her fist.

"Eh, normal's boring." Tina shrugged at the explanation, not liking it, but also refusing to let Shadowman get under her skin while the queen fought to keep her temper in check. A lot of those were things you found in Territory One, anyway, and if not openly advertised, it was generally understood what the reality was.
He didn't get to have that kind of power over her.
"And the best way to take the good doctor down?"

"You think if I knew, I'd be here?"
She'd feel pressure in the stone, like he was trying to get out, before it relaxed again.
"His powers change. Like a sponge, he gets powers just being near people with powers. I suppose if enough people were to floor him with energies..."
He trailed off.
"Can I go now?"

Interesting. Tina nodded, frowning as he rattled around in the gem.
"Fine, one last thing. What's our best chance to get in and out of the facility alive?" Or at least in.

He hummed.
"Your best chance would be to try and trick him. You could pretend to be representatives. Or have someone lead you in as prospective slave labor. The current queen and the daughter of the old one would catch attention, and there would be no suspicion if you played cards right. Once there, though....there is no guarantee of getting out."

"Kay." Tina would nod at look at her aunt.
"You got anything you wanna add?"

The Queen took the necklace.
"One thing. These....psychotic actions you talk about. Did you participate?"
The necklace was silent for a moment.
"Yes. Everyone did. There was a higher chance of-"
Several pops were heard from her hand, before a MASSIVE explosion erupted from her palm. Surprisingly, tina would feel the flames warp past her as most of it went up into the sky, lifting high above the courtyard. She'd see explosive flames popping and blowing out of her Aunt's palm as the necklace (and the one inside it) disintegrated into dust, her Aunt's eyes completely red as flames lanced out from the corners.
"Goodbye, shadowman."
She shook her hand off into the flames, even the dust and ash left over from the boom (which was still rocking around them) evaporating into nothingness. Still standing in the flame cyclone (which was slowly beginning to lift upward with the rest of the fire and death), her Aunt looked at her, glowing eyes beginning to fade.
"Shall we go get your mother?"

The higher chance of what was no longer something to look into, but Tina wasn't much for a lot of questions, anyway. Too many syllables, not enough EXPLOSIONS.
At least Shadowman had a good finale. She squinted a bit at the bright explosion that went up like a nuclear cloud, the heat swirling around her and ruffling her clothes and hair.
"Okay." She shrugged.
