You want Isabelle to [i]act[/i] right now? Are you [i]crazy?![/i]

She's no alien with seemingly nigh-indistructable physiology and the apparent ability to melt the floor when angry. She's not a cat huntress, trained in close combat fighting from birth and given over to natural predatory instincts. Heck, apart from that one time that Cam annoyed her last month, she hasn't even thrown a punch in anger within the last year. 

She is relatively fit at least, so she'd be good at running away. In fact, running away sounds like the perfect plan right now and 9 out of 10 internal Isabelles would agree.

So it's a mystery as to why she sees a shoe fly through the air towards the spirit.

Who threw that? She wonders, at the same time as she wonders why her hand is outstretched and her other foot is now cold.

Nine of the Isabelles turn to look at the tenth, who doesn't even seem to realise she's grabbed the main control panel.

Welp. It's been a good life. ([i]No it hasn't![/i]) Maybe the next one won't end so ignominiously.
