Jack found himself slowly coming back to his senses after what felt a lot longer to him he realized several of the others near the younger girl, who was surrounded by fire, who he had previously been ignoring so go figure the trouble would start there. It was a moment he was taking stock of considering how many of them ended up effected by whatever they had been going through and apparently it made some of them extremely aggressive. Not exactly something he could relate with but nonetheless he had a feeling the girl had caused it not having been able to make out much while under her power's effect but given that she was under so much duress it left no room for doubt. Despite having more than a few unwelcome feelings and thoughts brought up it had done no permanent harm and it seemed not all unlike the side effect from his own power or the main facet of it at least. [b][i]Sort of know how that works, using a power like that for defense doesn't work as well as you think though mine takes longer to do that.[/i][/b]

Something occurred to Jack once he looked back down at his hands and the table edge he was gripping noticing another problem with the near full breakdown. Where his hands had been gripping the table looked like it had been eaten away at like acid further in making quite the mess out of it especially since it hadn't stopped though he imagined it slowed down quite a bit considering how much damage it had done so quickly. "Shit." He mumbled dissipating the corruption through the table even if the bulk of the damage was already done. It was not a favorable thing his power did when it ended up attacking objects or people but it was there and he sure as hell kept it out of spotlight whenever possible, better to have people thinking his power was more along the lines of persuasion than what it actually was. Beyond that he had heard Monica's last words before it went bad and he would address it later after things had settled down more from now. He got up and moved over to check what other damage had been done by the others as well as maybe try to talk to the girl afterwards, he was concerned which was probably written all over his face. Jack picked his way over to the edge of the ring of fire purposely between the rest of the effected besides the other trying to help and the girl to keep another barrier in the way incase of any nasty second thoughts. "Put away the weapons, its over. Just back away and collect yourselves for now." He said keeping a calm tone doing his best to appeal to reason and if they decided not to listen he wasn't going anywhere.
