"If you can.." the captain begins but is cut off but a rather unmanly shriek from one of the other officers as the shadows stretch and twist around him and everyone else.
The shrieking continues as everyone is deposited just outside the police station among a group of bewildered cops and pedestrians. Irritated, Captain Marshall walks over to the screaming policeman, his eyes sinched shut in terror, and slaps him, hard, across the face.
"Get the Rockman inside and booked. The rest of you, what the * are you standing around for? Get into riot gear, we've got a problem at the square." The street outside the police station springs to life as officers equip themselves and clear out the civilians.
Looking down the street, you can see a part of the downtown area two blocks off. A mob of people pass into view, walking towards the now empty dome of ice, hoping to lynch themselves a nova. A gunshot rings out, only slightly muffled by the distance, and a cheer rises from the mob. More gunshots snap out followed by cheers of approval as you hear the call of "Shots fired" over the police radios.
The Captain turns his attention back to you guys. "It'd be better if we handle this from here." He looks squarely at Nycto and gives a short nod, the closest he'll get to saying thank you today. "I'd suggest you guys..."
He's interupted by an electric hum and crackle, followed by screams and gunfire. The mob has begun to scatter as three giant construction robots charge the crowd, arc welders and steel claws striking out visciously at the threat!
