[i]Rocker Warehouse[/i][/right][hr]

Wisp listened to him before suddenly the sound of the crash downstairs sent her flinching towards the wall. Wait, what? She was in a blank state of panic when Shatterpoint issued his commands. Wisp held herself against the wall. This was too quick. She hadn’t mentally prepared herself. This was too much!

With the words the being had spoken… he’d kill? The man would break the unwritten rules and kill? Perhaps he’s thinking that if he’s just killing minor goons in an organization he intends to take over he won’t be bothered for it? Frighteningly easy to imagine. This was a real villain, with a powerful power, and real experience. He did not come here without a plan.

It was with a frightening quiver she realized her unique opportunity. She could help the Rockers take him down, end this threat to the city in its infancy. But could she? She was scared and inexperienced. While invisible, she had no talents for taking hits. If he hit her, even by accident or so, she was dead if he so willed it. She couldn’t make Viola live through that. She just couldn’t.

Yet… she just had to go down there, regardless. Shatterpoint’s orders led her to move. She stepped softly near him, and he gave his request. Could she take him down?

It was not a lie. She wouldn’t guarantee it, but she could. Wisp communicated by writing with light only directed at Shatterpoint’s eyes right in front of him. No light leaked out elsewhere. She considered if she should tell him how, as that would give Shatterpoint insight into how her powers worked. … She eventually decided on a minimum. She had to give away that she had a range. Otherwise he’d question why she didn’t do it from a distance.

but i will not approach unless i wager it safe

She added the last part when she realized there was no way Shatterpoint could guarantee it would be completely safe. Then, she drifted away from Shatterpoint, intending on entering the room before him so she could not be in the staircase when Shatterpoint came down and drew the opponent’s eyes to him. She’d try to simply… float around the warehouse, where it was safe.

It was a good thing she didn’t have to talk, because her voice would break from her fear. It was a good thing she was invisible from curving light around her, so nobody could see her shaking. It was a good thing she had no attachments to this place, because if she decided to, she could simply bolt. For now, she kept out of the way with silent steps, hoping the enemy had no way of locating her.

So yeah, uh, she couldn’t do a thing against a guy in a tornado of debris. Shoot some light at him with hope of blinding him, get killed by things shot in the direction of the light, and that’d be it. However, shooting light and blinding was Wisp’s trademark. She’d like to avoid doing that as Creep if at all possible. She had to come up with other ways to use her abilities. This was going to be difficult.
