Oliver would be able to tell that she had gone east, but beyond that, the only clue as to where she was going was from what Raynor had said - that Doom had asked Luminous to take him to the Nexus, wherever that was. Niah shouting for the civilians to run was, shockingly, [i]extremely effective[/i]. Maybe it was because the United Kingdom here was so used to the fae, but parents were scooping up their children and fleeing the park immediately now, snapping out of the initial shock and confusion. Of course, on such a crowded day it meant that even with people making an effort to evacuate, things still weren't great. In fact, there was a huge risk of trampling - particularly for small children, or for anyone really who might trip and get run over by the mad hoard of people trying to escape the park. Now Matt, he did not have nearly an easy a time at his task. Gargantos had taken a bit of damage from Sparky's attack, looking a little fried in some areas, but its tentacles were just as deadly as ever before. The good news was that Matt would manage to touch Gargantos - the bad news was that it was because Gargantos flicked him away like he was just an annoying bug. However, that touch was enough and Matt managed to paralyze one of Gargantos' tentacles, the demon somehow screeching despite having no mouth as it realized it couldn't move the tentacle that had touched Matt. Cass would manage to help some of the civilians flee to safety - namely, she was able to grab some little kids and roll with them out of the way of Gargantos' tentacles, as well as save some people who were almost trampled in the mad rush of people trying to escape the park. Hopefully Oliver had given Maria permission to take some of his power, as she managed to successfully do so. Maria acquired Oliver's super-speed and would be able to use it to zip around, helping out civilians and greatly clearing out the park thanks to her newly enhanced speed. Of course, the side effect of the absorption also meant that Oliver would be feeling somewhat drained, as Maria had accidentally taken a portion of his life force as well. But I'm sure he wasn't using all of his life force anyways, right? Bonnie wasn't used to Flynn disagreeing with her course of action. She knew that in video games, it was fine to target the eye itself - she had played a few herself after all. But here, there were so many civilians that she was worried that blinding the eye would only make its movements more erratic, putting more innocent people in danger. However, they didn't have time to argue about it. And thankfully, the team seemed to be focused on evacuation efforts, with a few working on attacking the demon itself. She figured she'd be most helpful at evacuation, and Bonnie spotted an elderly couple in harm's way. She sprinted on over there, only to be blessed with terrible luck. Gargantos only had one of its tentacles paralyzed, leaving several of them free and flying around. The eyeball grabbed Bonnie and lifted her high into the sky - and then, Gargantos threw her across the park. Bonnie normally didn't scream. But she knew that a fall like this would be fatal for her child, if not herself. So she screamed. Luckily, Amelia was a great catcher. [color=FFB795]"I've got you, mate!"[/color] she called out, flying on up to Bonnie and catching her. She was holding Bonnie bridal style, a modern day Superman as she floated gently down to the ground and set her friend down carefully. [color=FFB795]"Might not be a bad idea for you to get out of here, to be honest - what with the babe and all,"[/color] Amelia pointed out. As much as she was reckless and put her own life in danger, Amelia knew that not everyone could afford to do that - and Bonnie definitely couldn't right now. [color=f6989d]"I'm fine, I'm not going anywhere,"[/color] Bonnie insisted stubbornly, though her hands were shaking. She was prideful, but she wasn't dumb - she knew that had been too close for comfort. Amelia raised an eyebrow, before flying back up into the sky. She wished she had something like super strength or the like - it would make fighting the eyeball much, much easier. There was only so much she could do by blowing wind at him. However, now that it was decreed okay to blind the eyeball, Amelia did get an idea. There was a reason she wore goggles when she was doing stunts and skydiving and the like - maybe if she blew a [i]ton[/i] of wind in the demon's face(?) she could force the eyeball to close its lid, allowing people with a little more power to get in some good hits. Amelia summoned up a gigantic gust of wind and sent the wind flying at Gargantos - at first, it seemed like it might've worked... but then Gargantos just turned around and started trying to attack the fleeing civilians, the wind just buffeting its back(?) now. [color=FFB795]"Bloody cunt,"[/color] Amelia cursed. Raynor grit his teeth. [color=d86615]"I hate magic,"[/color] he muttered, before instantly imagining his cousin ridiculing him for that statement. He wished that he had been better at crafting hard light constructs - that he could throw a light spear at the eyeball - but he didn't have that power. His father had been brilliant at it. So instead, Raynor threw his dagger, Lyting, aiming for the center of the eyeball. The dagger missed and Raynor held out his hand, calling Lyting back to him. He threw the dagger again, not giving up - but Gargantos grabbed Raynor, squeezing him in its grip and keeping him from breathing. The demon was enraged, recognizing an Asgardian god. Gargantos [i]hated[/i] gods. The demon screeched, making its intentions clear. It wasn't interested in hurting other people now. It just wanted to kill Raynor.
