"He's perfect for this!" says a women at a console who looks thoroughly mad scientist, as the device charges. She's wearing goggles, and her red hair is wild and sticking up in every direction, a great Doc Brown imitation. Her green and black costume has a white lab coat over top.
Mutagenia looks quite excited.
"He's a champion gymnast. I think his musculature will make it so this experiment has less...mildly flawed results."
The last ring lights up and a light flickers to life at the point of the ray gun. There's a loud crackling sound and then -
There's a loud crash as a wall caves in. The person responsible is moving at superspeed and that means he can take in the tableau in a moment nearly frozen in time. There's Mutagenia, as they suspected. The device is there too, integrated into some kind of ray gun.
But there's a civilian hostage.
The device can't be destroyed when its recovery is the mission, but it doesn't need to be for the hostage to be saved. There is thundering crack and Tim will feel a huge gust of wind and a burst of dizzying movement. The zap just barely misses him, ozone crackling in the space he just was. When it stops, Tim's facing a different direction.
His rescuer ripped the table he was strapped to right off the foundation where it was bolted, breaking the concrete itself. He turns it around to face him.
The person who freed him is wearing an uniform in blue and gold, with a golden shield strapped to his forearm. A half-face helmet still reveals a strong chin and bright blue eyes are visible through the helmet's eyeholes. A blue glow spreads from his hands, breaking the strap of the biteguard and shattering all the shackles. He wraps an arm around Tim's waist then there's another burst of speed and they're behind some crates. Tim is gently lowered to the ground.
A hand reaches up and gently removes the biteguard (as long as he unclenches.)
"Stay here and stay down." Chaos is erupting behind them, as Thirteen's teammates flood into the abandoned warehouse and engage Mutagenia and her goons.
