Group Rescue Squad Delta

Cian had carefully put together a number of group rescue exercises with the opening of Semper Fi. Their rescue facilities were top notch and he wanted to use the opportunity to teach his classes a very valuable lesson. The school year was in full swing and it was time that he provided them with a big challenge. That in of itself was a big channel for Cian. He had to craft puzzles for the students to make creative use of their quirks and put them in a situation where they had t work together to complete the objective. This most important part of this class was learning to work together with people that didn't interact too much. He knew that some of the students knew each other, but he designed the groups to have from different classes. This way he could do his best to ensure they weren't too familiar with each other. It was a fun idea and he had a lot of fun putting together the courses for the students. And naturally, he couldn't help but place little mental bets on how each student was going to handle each situation.

The course designed for squad delta was a bit of a doozy. t was modeled after an accident built of incompetence. Sometimes people needed rescuing from the laziness of others rather than the wrath of nature. Accidents happened, but sometimes it was something that was inevitable that the general populace needed to be protected from. The idea of letting someone else deal with the problem was something the students were going to feel hard when they became professional heroes. They were going to have to deal with all kinds of people for all kinds of reasons, but they had to remember what the job entailed. Rescuing civilians was one of the most important portions of their career. Chasing down the lazy people that caused accidents and disasters was a job for the police. They were heroes, not detectives.

This course was modeled after such an event, one that caused quite the stir when the reason behind the disaster was revealed. A subway junction had started to collapse and it had become a dangerous place to be in. While many were able to evacuate, any other needed rescuing and that was what the students were here to perform in this mock setup. They were to rescue nine target mannequins and bring them to the marked off section at the entry to the subway junction. It sat right next to the starting point the students were to gather at just before a set of escalators that would take them down to the junction. Unlike a normal subway stop, this one was much larger because it was a number of trains intersected. It was almost like a hub and often one of the busiest places in the whole subway system.

A mannequin was trapped under some rubble at the end of one of the subway tunnels. While this was only a mock tunnel and not a real one, the wall of rubble served as an impassable wall that was actually out of the way of the junction as a whole. It was dark and hard to see anything in that section of the junction, meaning that the students had to deliberately look down the tunnel in order to spot the mannequin at all. It was mostly a lesson is making sure to search every nook and cranny of a disaster area for people that could not respond back when helped arrived.

Another mannequin was stuck on the track themselves. And while the junction had only one train in it, this train was slowly rolling toward the mannequin. In about five round, it would roll over it, killing the mannequin by beheading. It needed to be saved quickly and carefully before that happened. If an attempt was made to rescue the mannequin, it was entirely possible that getting it unstuck would cause the train to roll even faster. This meant that in rescuing it, the student had to act quickly afterward to get out of the way or risk being injured.

And, of course, there was a mannequin stuck in the junction's bathroom. The door to the women's bathroom had a small pile of rubble on the other side of it. A feat of strength or the combined effort of the students was going to be needed to get the door moved and the mannequin within freed. Again, it was an exercise in making sure the student searched everywhere that they could to find the targets to rescue.

In the control room of the junction, a mannequin was suspendered just out of reach on the ceiling. It was attached to the stone ceiling with metal bracelets that were screwed in tight. Significant force and power were going to be needed to unlatch it by force, but there was a way to carefully remove the mannequin as well. The dangerous portion of the setup was the fact that there were numerous nails and other sharp objects all around the room and stuck to the ceiling as well. Anything that would affect metal would affect them as well, so a delicate touch was probably going to be needed.

On the flip side, in another section of the junction was a mannequin latched to a broken pillar that was hanging from the ceiling. It too was latched on with metal bracelets that were actually quite loose and could be easily pulled from the crumbling stone pillar. The problem here was that the pillar was broken and the bottom portion of it meant that it was impossible to climb up as there was nothing to climb. There was nothing else around that could be used to reach the pillar and the mannequin was about twenty-eight meters from the closest spot on the ground.

There was another mannequin stuck in an access shaft in the junction. The only clear path to reach it was a shaft that led straight upward toward the room with a ladder. There was wiggle room in the shaft, but not a whole lot of space for too much moving around. The issue here was that the latch that opened the shaft was malfunctioning. It a person attempted to climb the ladder up the shaft, they needed to move extremely quickly to make it to the top without the latch closing. Once a person passed a certain point on the ladder, the top of the shaft would close a few moments later. Going back down was easy because of the order the latches opened and closed but going up at a quick speed was going to be the hard part.

Under the junction as a whole was the drainage system for any water or rain that entered the junction. It was pretty easy to get in and out of, but the drain was a large cement cylindrical room that kept the water flowing and moving toward the drain so that it wouldn't be sitting water for insects. It was not spinning at some pretty high speeds, which had enough G-force to keep people relatively stuck to the sides of the wall. Suspended in the middle of that room was a mannequin. SOmeone had to jump from the wall to the mannequin to rescue it, then use the rope it was tied in to escape. The rope led to a shaft that had the door to the top of it close,d meaning it could only be accessed from below. Jumping from the regular entryway, which led to the spinning walls would take some careful planning since the jump would incur extra G-force.

Another room in the junction was the security office. it was at the end of a long monitored hall that was very heavily secured. A full system was in place to not only track visually, but with heat and sound signatures. If anything was detected, the security door would lock shut for a full round and prevent access to the mannequin inside. However, the system was damaged and exposed in the collapse. It reacted slowly to whatever was there and if something moved quickly enough, the system would be too slow to react. Additionally, the system was exposed and could be disabled directly through magnetic interference.

The final target was locked behind a similar door. This system was on point. It could see and react to anything just about instantly and was protected from interference. However, this system only tracked things visually. As long as whatever was going through the hallway was undetected the door would remain unlocked and the mannequin inside was free to rescue The room this mannequin was in could deactivate its own camera system, but not the other one because of how damaged it was.

The class will end once all mannequins are rescued and brought back to the safety zone, or time runs out (the event ends and the topics closed). This is not an exam, but a class. Students are here to learn and practice, not compete with the other squads to do things the best way. Mistakes are allowed. The important thing here is for students to learn to work together for a common goal. Aside from the stuff in this opening post, the topic and setting are free to use and proceed as you wish. If you have any questions, contact me on the discord. From this point on the student shave free reign and I will not be replying to the topic unless needed for something specific and by request. Have fun with it!
