[u]Augusta[/u] continued to interact with the strange black stone slab, eliciting a minute but significant response in the form of the blue glow. Nick and [u]Isidore[/u] watched with bated breaths but as soon as the slab was lit up, wonder turned to horror as [u]Augusta[/u] was now being pulled by the mysterious stone slab.

That anxious feeling returned. The stone WAS dangerous, after all! Where was this power earlier, Nick questioned. It would have been really useful when no one was in danger, not when the danger was already obvious!

[u]Augusta[/u] was not one to let herself be taken. She resisted with all her might, and [u]Isidore[/u] held her shoulders to help her stand her ground. It appeared they were not doing much but Nick could tell something was happening that he just could not see. Man, he was missing all the good stuff. All he had to show for was that he could sense something was wrong. One that activated late, no less. 

Still, he was not one to stand around idle. Nick got to [u]Augusta[/u] and grabbed her hips before pulling as hard as he could. "[color=skyblue]Don't worry, Augusta! We've got you![/color]" Nick did not pride himself with physical strength but he had to do something rather than stand around looking pretty.
