Would be a shame if something were to happen," Fatale commented with a bit of an eye roll. Of course, one of the group decided to just charge in with his scythe, of course that being Reaper. Ed will be able to throw up the shield in time to prevent the attack from reaching them, so that was a good thing. At least it seemed to be holding for now. However that wasn't seemingly going to last for long, as Reaper kept slashing at the shield, trying to get it to break. Abyss decided to try a slightly different approach, as a few of his tendrils unraveled and instantly charged directly at the shield, going to a fine point. There was the sound of something cracking, before the shield broke entirely. One of the tendrils instantly went towards Ed, but they got blocked by the sudden appearance of a silver dragon wing. Thalia had stepped over in a flash and now a pair of silver wings were sprouting from her back, and her skin shimmered and had the appearance of being covered in silver scales. She used her wing to knock the tendril out of the way, and it shot back to Abyss. Her mouth started to smoke, and she sent a stream of fire shooting from her mouth, and it went straight for Fatale, who just barely managed to dodge out of the way, but her arm clearly ended up getting somewhat scorched from the encounter. [color=silver]"Well looks like they are wanting a bit of a fight,"[/color] Thalia commented, her wings more of folding up slightly so they weren't so much in the way. Of course, she wasn't a mutant or a normal human (at least not anymore), so she kind of was waiting at this point for one of them (likely Fatale) to question it. And of course, she was right, as Fatale raised a bit of an eyebrow, "Well aren't you an interesting one, and more than a bit annoying." Of course now with the shield down, they more readily had access to being able to attack them. Fatale instantly moved over to Jade, and whirled around, the gauntlets that she was wearing had blades poking out of the end, and she slammed her foot into Jade, knocking her over. Reaper was preparing to swing his scythe again, and Abyss was starting to have the tendrils move around again, more then ready to attack them again. Fatale also smirked slightly after knocking Jade over, and she backed away slightly, clearly more than a bit prepared to fight the group, though they might want to think about keeping it down a bit, they didn't want to draw too many people into the area anymore. [h3]Abandoned Building[/h3] Mary managed to get out of the rubble that surrounded her, and she knocked a large piece off of her leg before she got up, managing to stand shakily on her feet. However all that mattered at the moment was that she was conscious and able to move, though she did feel like she likely had a few broken bones from the explosion and all, combined with the burns from the explosion itself. Somehow she managed to make her way over to where the other two were still standing, as they made it out of that explosion in way better shape than she had. [color=007236]"Yeah, just a bit battered, but I'll be fine, probably..."[/color] Mary responded with a bit of a shrug as she glanced over to see what was fully going on with the Brotherhood members, and they all seemed to have gotten knocked out. [color=007236]"Well thank you Boom Boom for knocking a lot of the people on your own side out."[/color] she added, before glancing over at Feral and Shocker who were both still standing somehow. Though they both looked to be in horrible shape in general, kind of like her at the moment. "I'm not stupid, I know when I'm beat," Feral said, before bolting away from them and ducking down a side street and disappearing. Shocker had electricity charged up, and looked like at the moment he was preparing to continue fighting. Lance followed along after Carolina and Guin to the upper landing, and was not too thrilled about Sabretooth deciding to show his ugly mug and all. The problem was that the three of them were [i]not[/i] very combat minded with their power set. His could be useful in a combat scenario, but he also had never really done that and usually used his powers more defensively or for healing, not for anything else unless he absolutely had to. Out of the three of them the fact that with his powers he kind of was considered the "heavy hitter" was kind of sad. [color=yellow]"This is not good..."[/color] he muttered under his breath, as he watched as Carolina decided to see about possessing Sabretooth. The problem was that if she failed, odds were that Sabretooth would then know that they were there. Which then would result in him probably trying to [i]kill[/i] them. Oh this was definitely a gamble in his mind, but both instances were a bit of a gamble. Carolina would luck out, partially anyway. She'd be able to possess Sabretooth, however it was clear that his mind was very strongly fighting to get rid of her and yank control back, which meant that odds were that it wouldn't last too long, so whatever she was planning with that time, she probably should do it quickly.
