But then out of nowhere, Cassius spiralled out of control in a chain of erratic movements and blasted the tiger to kingdom come with a powerful blast. There was a hugle plume of smoke erupting from the blast zone, obscuring vision. She waved the smoke away with her hand and focused to try and see the result. Once the smoke cleared, it was clear that the Tiger didn't stand a chance. The others seemed to be genuenly impressed by Cass's move. Kath wasn't one of them. She wanted that glory kill on the tiger. Fighting imps all day was rather boring, and now her firebuddy stole the only kill that was worth her time. She lowered her hands and took up a more relaxed posture as she strolled up to the stairs. There was a lot of internal pressure mounting up in her, and she tried to remain calm by avoiding contact with the others. It wasn't that hard in her fighting form to resist making puns, but it took considerably more effort not to punch Cassius in the face. Ultimately, her plans of quick transformation failed. She was angry and aching for a fight where she could finally punch something into minced meat. Even if she tried, she couldn't be able to calm down and transform back, she was beyond controlling her powers. The previously ambient embers lit up in a blaze of inferno inside her, and she could feel that the heat released from her body was enough to heat the air around her and make her hair and clothes move from the air flow. If things kept up like this she'll soon combust, and that was something she wanted to avoid. Kath walked up behind Cassius and watched with disgust as Cassius took up a protective stance in front of the group. As much as she liked her firebuddy, her mind went blank. Whether the cause was back when the tiger died, or the posture that Cassius now took up, Kath finally reached the breaking point where her powers became the controller of her body, and not her mind. And the power was aching to hurt someone. [i]The obvious enemy was right there in front of her. Cassius's back was facing her, giving her the perfect oppurtinity to strike. The fire erupted in her eyes, and she took confident step forwards and approached Cassius from the back. Her mind filled up with gruesome images of painful strikes as her rampant emotions began plotting the demise of her firebuddy. The she readied her arm for the strike. It was a strange feeling, knowing exactly what your body is doing, watching it as if you were in control, but it wasn't you who was moving. She let out a mental cry for help as she struggled against the force of her emotions. She wrestled control for a second and turned the punch inti something less harmful.[/i] Kath grabbed Cassius's shoulder and forcefully pushed him sideways. [color=ed1c24]"Outta the way pipsqueak."[/color] This was about as far from Kath's usual self as it could possibly be. Not only was she usually calm and collected in her fighting form, but she'd never truly insult her firebuddy. She brushed past Cass and approached the door labeled 201. She took an amused look at the doorknob before kicking the door with such force, that the hinges keeping it in palce raptured and the part of the doorframe where they were atatched was sent flying through the room, along with the door. The screams of the 3 unfortunate imps, who were standing behind the door at the moment Kath kicked it in, died out instantly when tehy hit the opposite wall and the door pinned them to the wall with gruesom lethality. A stray ghost watched in horror as the earthly remains of the imps were splattered over the wall, and it decided that messing with Kath wasn't the best idea, even if it was incorporeal. It flew up through the roof, and disappeared into the room above. [color=ed1c24]"Weaklings."[/color] Kath muttered to herself as she leaned through the devastated doorframe to check the room for anything interesting.
