She had a habit of being a bit ditsy so just followed the much cooler Kayla's lead. The hound spoke to Madison about deals, and it sounded like Madison wanted someone back. Jess tried to keep up, but the size of the apparition was really bugging her as it seemingly changed its size. Jess was wondering if it was maybe time to go, but that's when Madison attacked the thing. Jess came here as back-up, so she wasn't gonna run away. She flung her sword case off her back and hurriedly got it out. It's steel blade reflected what light there was. [color=f26522]"Extend maximum!"[/color] She cried as orange energy burst around her channeler and her sword, extending her sword by 20 extra feet. She ran forward and lunged the energy at the hound. [color=f26522]"Madison! Can we win here, or are we dead?"[/color] She asked, knowing the answer in her heart. She felt her heart pound against her chest, yet her courage could not waver, not now. She hoped her attack could penetrate and at least cause the Hound to retreat. She looked back at the apparition with a fiery passion in her eyes.

Emily probably said something insulting and someone was probably popping off, but it didn't matter. Elise was so focused that she didn't even notice the canister drop by her feet until it burst into a smoke that stung and burned her eyes. She screamed and reactively teleported out. She huddled on the ground behind a convenience store a mile or so away. She had made sure to go to surrounding areas if she ever needed to get away from one of her Coven mates, she was glad she had. She blinked furiously, trying to get the smoke out of her eyes, but it wasn't doing much. Luckily, her next plan of action didn't require her normal vision. She closed her burning eyes and pictured the hotel in her mind. She saw smoke billowing everywhere. She honed in on where the main table was and popped in. She grabbed whoever was closest and popped back out with them. She was panting already and had to regain her breath. [color=00aeef]"Are you ok? I'll try to grab more of them in a moment.. I'm sorry."[/color] She spoke to the one she saved, even though she was not yet sure who it was.
