[hr]

[color=skyblue]Cold steel met inky black flesh with divine might and singular intent, Jonas' strike carrying such an intensity that appeared to fill the sky with a blinding cerulean glow. The Shadow's grotesque contour was put in sharp relief, a brief second of illumination that made its oily black look waxy and artificial. Being thrust into a radiance so unlike the entity's natural form did nothing but give it an even more outlandish appearance.

It was then, the sky itself lit from the eerie brilliance and combatants' vision clearing, that the source of the sudden flash was shown. Or heard, in this case, with the thumping report of air abruptly ionizing slamming into the illuminated scenery around.

The thunderous clap was preceded by Liam's electric arrival.

So focused on the immediate threat of fully-automatic immolation being dealt out by the Athenian woman, and even more on the aspect of war cleaving his way through its dark sinew, the beast had no chance to defend against the newcomer's own blinding assault.

Liam had, to his credit, made towards the site of the unexpected battle once it was clear the sounds emanating were more than just a party, arriving just in time to see the ghastly form take shape. It was now though, both Jonas and Rebekah's attacks taking the majority of the Shadow's attention away from the others around in their intensity, that Liam began to move. The tear in the fabric of reality, blacker than the ghastly apparition itself, ripping into existence behind it only served to solidify the demigod's course of action.

This monster had to be put down [i]now[/i]. This was their best opportunity, maybe their only given the monster's foreboding speech.

Liam had taken a running start. Meters back from the action, he was far enough away for this to seem like a futile approach to foe that was already on the back foot. Even so, bluish energy danced across his body, sparks of power tracing lines around him and forcing his hair to stand on end.

Three more strides and Liam was in a full sprint, moving at a prodigious clip towards his target. Still not fast enough.

It was then that his right foot left the ground, followed closely by his left. The electricity billowing around him clung to the earth from the soles of his feet in incandescent filaments, before breaking off one by one as launched himself upward.

An outstretched hand pointed towards his destination while Liam's right foot continued to rise, leg extending out with clear intent. A surge, and the demigod's motion was for a moment, no longer completely physical.

Thus the sudden lightning strike, in this case a literal strike, as the Son of Zeus rode the lightning to complete his attack. If all went well Liam's kick would firmly plant his foot squarely in the center of the Shadow's vaguely human body, just above where Jonas' staggering blow was landing. The demigod's own strength augmented by the force of the electric javelin of power that carried him there, adding to the assault attempting to push the monster into the void behind.

Liam himself elected to push off of the beast after the blow, launching himself far enough back to avoid retaliation. As he landed on the ground, consciously placing himself behind Rebekah so as to not obstruct her firing solution, the last bit of light faded from the area and the thunderclap became a low rumble as it reverberated away.

The smell of ozone filled the air, and the edges of his tee were singed, but with some luck, the one extra attack had pushed the Shadow over the edge.
