Anonymous huffed at the issue at hand; too much of his gas got dissipated, so the effect of his mind-affecting power isn’t as potent as before. Taking mental note on such data, Anonymous quietly walked around the mansion, searching for an exit. He isn’t quite interesting in the informant, but he would be quite interesting in what Geata have to say if he ever show up to the rendezvous point. He need to get the fog-machine to remove any evident of his experiment on this little affair too, so he need to keep track on that before truly leaving the mansion.

Geata suddenly stood stock still and stared ahead for a moment before pinching the bridge of his nose. When he removed his hand, his expression was full of irritation and annoyance. He couldn't believe he hadn't struck upon his new plan before. He sighed, and suddenly his enemies would find themselves surrounded by portals that would keep them in their immediate area in order to prevent them from following.
Underneath Siren, Arcanum, and the informant, portals opened that would drop them a short distance onto a rooftop a few blocks away. Geata quickly followed, and once they were all gone, Critical and the other Keeper would no longer be trapped by the portals. The masked super didn't care what they did in the face of their loss, but he made sure no portals remained for them to follow him.
Now that Geata had the informant in his grasp, the best course of action was obvious. Sure, they could force the guy to say everything he knew at that moment, but that was short-sighted. If, instead, they convinced him to give them everything that he was to come to know, they could learn something far more important in the long run. He sighed and relaxed before looking at the informant.
"I hope the fact that you're alive thanks to us has put you in the mood to strike a deal," he said, equal parts joking and serious. "Don't worry, either way, we just spent way too much effort trying to keep you alive to want you dead now. We wouldn't mind knowing what you've got to say that would capture the attention of a high ranking Keeper, though, if you'd be willing to share."
Taking option #3!

Once he managed to make his way to the storage area where he kept the fog machine, he turned off the power before picking it up. The experiment yield quite an interesting result, however little it was.
“Hm, guess it needs some work and improvement.”
He put the machine away before exit the area. He can no longer detect the thought of Geata or the frighten informant anymore, or even the other super, so there’s no point of sticking around. Wasting no time to even talk to the other, Anonymous took his leave; after all, he has a little appointment that he was curious about. There’re work to be done, more experiments to perform, and a possible rendezvous that he wouldn’t want to miss.
“I’ll be expecting you soon, little Skeletor.”

Although he was interested in the super who had proven an ally, Phenomenon had a negative desire to stay and find him after he left. No, it'd simply be wiser to leave. The portals had whisked away Mass' apparent target, and Mass himself didn't prove very efficient in his pursuit of the mission. It was more than time to go, he should've left before he could've been actually harmed. There was no point in sticking his neck out when he realized it wasn't going to go well. He looked out the door, and stared at the door leading out the front of the house. An umbrella from the stand floated towards him, surrounded in the pink aura that wasn't uncommon. The previous owner wouldn't need it, as quite a number of people left in a panic while the supers had their battle. Thinking of it, quite a few probably still had that gas in them and were likely doing their panicking about the area. It'd be nice to understand what all it did to them. Phenomenon caught the umbrella with an outstretched hand and left through the window he'd entered from. It was the best way to keep out of sight. He didn't do so much as turn to his former protectorate, instead just hopping back out to the mud below and walking away, umbrella held above him and still glowing.
