Forge was awake not long after Warpath ran back in and he sat up and went for his bag, happy that the team brought it. He started hacking the facilities systems and got eyes and ears all throughout the complex before sealing the soldiers in wings away from the team using fake emergency signals to lure them away from the fight. True to his beliefs as an X-Man, once they were on lockdown he used the buildings defense systems and the troops were subjected to knockout gas.
Over the comms in the room Charles and Jean were in Forge said "Hey guys. I've got Stryker blind and deaf for now. I'm making an exit for you. I'm hacking the drones they stationed to lead you out. According to the schematics I'm looking at there are gas masks in a cabinet to your right. If they're still there grab em so I can use the knockout gas they were so nice to stockpile. The others have gas masks in a medical bay in their wing. Let them know to grab them while Warpath stalls."
The technopath was hard at work opening and closing doors and had gained control over the drones, sending them to assist Jean in getting the Professor to safety. Eight of the sixteen drones sent brought the facilities medical supplies with them and were reprogrammed to only use nonlethal weapons if attacked, tranquilizer darts and sleep gas were the default armaments for them. Forge had also downloaded the data from the complex and emptied the facilities databases of everything so he could review it all later.
Hoping to distract X-23, Forge used the intercom and with the computers voice, called X-23 to Stryker's office.
