Nick's jaw dropped at Miss ANiverse's words.
"10,000!?" He gasped.
"Glad we proved you wrong." Din said with a smile. "I have some friends i can call in, if you want me to."

Miss Aniverse nodded once.
"And that's only the Mammalian superheroes. Think of how many supervillains are still out there, or even Toad superheroes who are now using their powers against the UAC,"
She paused. "And no doubt you've seen the amount of food we were given. Can you imagine how many of those 10,000 are still alive today? I wouldn't be surprised if some of the Towers had nobody alive in them at all."
"I think you'd better," Lt. America agreed. "Shifting several thousand corpses will need a hell of a lot of manpower."

Nick just groaned and lopped on his back in defeat.
"On it." Din said and reached into his pocket.
He pulled ot a small black pearl and rubbed it gently, while closing his eyes. A few minutes went by and a black furred cat stepped out of the shadows next to them. He blinked his one good eye and looked at Din.
"You need a hand?" He asked calmly crossing his arms.
Din just pointed to Lt. America for the explanation.

OOC: I wondered how long it would be before he'd turn up! ;D
IC: Lt. America just waved nervously, and collected himself before continuing.
"We need help evacuating this city. There'll no doubt be a lot of corpses to shift, and we'll need all the help we can get."

"We are on Genus, correct?" The Black Cat asked looking around and sniffing the air. "I have not sensed a war here, so why are there so many corpses?"
He looked at Lt America.
"And who are you?" The Cat added after a moment.
Nick looked around.
"What is takig so long?" He asked quietly.

"I am Lieutenant America," Lt. America bowed respectfully. "We are on Genus, yes, not far from the Capitol. What you see before you is conformity taken to it's most extreme,"
"Years ago, there were exactly 10,000 superheroes in Mammalian parts of the Aniverse, all using their powers to protect humans from evil forces. But not too long ago, the UAC suddenly became paranoid of being overthrown by these super-mammals. They tortured us for refusing to intergrate or give up our powers. People who advocated superhero rights had a finger cut off for each time they spoke out, and finally, we were sealed up in these towers with little food and no medicine,"
"Over time, people began to drop dead of illness or starvation if not from the torture they suffered. Some went mad from claustrophobia, including my now-deceased girlfriend. Just because of a fear of something different, we were left to die. Out of the 500 superheroes in this tower alone, we've only found three still alive. Me, Miss Aniverse and Aquadventurer."

"What can you tell me? I sense a psychic energy coming from you." He said calmly.

"Then give me locations of the living. WHen their evacuated, we can make this town a burial ground for the others." The Black Cat said with a nod.

Aquadventurer took a deep breath and closed his eyes. As he concentrated, he chanted the floors in the tower and the names of the heroes on there: - Lobby - clear
- First floor - clear
- Second floor - clear
- Third floor - they're on there
- Fourth floor - Super-Soldier
- Fifth floor - clear
- Sixth floor - Church Belle
- Seventh floor - clear
- Eighth floor - Lt. Britain
- Floors 9 - 20 - clear

Emily just pointed into the darkness as she saw Din and Lt. America charging towards them.
"Could...you...create...a...moisture...bag...or...something...so...I...can...move...about...please?" Aquadventurer asked, looking at The Black Cat.

Lt. America nodded to Dins' statement.
"Aquadventurer told us where to look, and we need to go get them."
"Much,...thank...you," Aquadventurer murmured, as he slowly clambered out of the boiler. "You...don't...know...how...long...it's...been...since...I...felt...solids...beneath...my...feet."

Nick nodded and looked around the area.
"We should set up an area to check them over." He said thoughtfully.
"Good idea. you and Emily can do it then." DIn said and headed up the stairs.
"Glad to hear it. Let's go then." The Black Cat said and headed up the stairs as well.
