Taking a closer look at the nightmarish esper, Ashley gasped upon noticing that her ally’s hands were so badly injured that he couldn’t even carry his weapons. She was just about to move over to him, when a bright flash exploded to her left. Although she quickly turned her head away, dark spots still covered much of her vision. Blinking her eyes in an effort to clear them away, Ashley soon found her feet being kicked out from under her. Thankfully, she was already crouched down, and so she didn’t have far to fall, but she still wound up with her butt on the floor. [color=MediumSpringGreen][i]W-What just happened…?[/i][/color] she wondered, her head spinning from both flash and fall. After taking a moment to reorient herself, Ashley saw that Silhouette was nowhere to be found… [color=MediumSpringGreen][i]W-Where did he go?! He can’t fight in his condition, so why would he run away from the only person who can heal him?![/i][/color] Ashley’s answer would have to wait, as an exceptionally creepy ghost chose that moment to reveal himself. If there was any bright side to the bizarre being’s appearance, it was that it seemed to unite the battling espers against a common foe. No sooner had the strange specter finished his lispy introduction, then a missile launched from the opposite side of the chamber struck the statue of Justin, which the ghost was protruding out of, blasting the disgusting sculpture to bits. While Ashley was glad to see such an affront to the eyes meet its end, the ensuing shower of rubble severely pelted the nearby Breacher. Even with her massive shield, the draconic esper was still clearly injured by the pummeling, and Ashley couldn’t help but feel a pang of concern for her wounded comrade. [color=MediumSpringGreen]“Breacher!”[/color] the young esper called out as she cautiously rose to her feet. However, before she could take a single step, dozens of white flames shot out of the ghost and entered nearly every inanimate object in the room. Naturally, said objects didn’t [i]remain[/i] inanimate for long… As the various suits of armor, couches, tables, armoires, and gargoyle statues came to life around them, the lights began to flicker and die. Hurriedly casting her gaze around the rapidly darkening room, Ashley saw Valkyrie sprinting away from three animated suits of armor, while Breacher continued to lay in the center of the chamber, which was conveniently also the one place that was still somewhat illuminated. Unable to see the possible trouble the rest of her teammates were in, the Knight of Tomorrow resolved to help the only one that she [i]knew[/i] needed her assistance. Ducking to avoid a flying table, Ashley snapped off a shot at one of the three nearest suits of armor, before dashing over to Breacher, employing her shield to deflect the various pieces of flying rubble as best as she could. Upon reaching the draconic esper, she knelt down and placed a glowing hand upon her ally’s wounded shoulder. [color=MediumSpringGreen]“Are you okay?”[/color] she asked, her voice tinged with worry. [color=MediumSpringGreen]“Here, let me help you.”[/color] [hr] [center]18 | Female | GEMINI | Vision of Tomorrow Implements of Tomorrow | Wand, Shield | Arcane | Tune of Tomorrow Raiment of Tomorrow | Stride of Tomorrow Light of Tomorrow | Light | Power of Tomorrow [Reveal (2), Purity (4)], Damage (2), Damage X (6), Shield (4), Reflect (4), Heal (6), Major Heal (18), AoE (2), Powerful (0), Piercing (2) DAMAGE: C | SPEED: E | SENTINEL: D | 750 [Bronze Touch][Heal] = -48 mana PHYSICAL: E | ARCANE: D | CHAOS: C | 238[/center]
