Li caught every shot in the short altercation, from Gamma-Burn dropping his blade, to the limb collapsing with the villain's weight as the insects made quick work of the wood. Like hot tea running over sugar cubes. It was a terrifying sight, really, to see the power those tiny critters had in larger numbers. It almost made Lilian think he should probably keep his apartment a little more clean if he didn't want to end up a snack. Almost. Securing the safety of his home would have to wait until he wasn't working his ass off every day just to make rent.

As Gamma-Burn took off into the undergrowth, Li could tell that this battle was becoming mobile, and quickly rolled back, throwing himself back to the secure safety of the rooftop and jumping to his feet. He took off running, but not towards the fire escape to go back down to the street. Rather, he took off full speed towards the edge of the building, lining himself up with the building next door. Jumping up onto some sort of electrical box or something, he popped off, landing first on the barrier wall around the rooftop and immediately pushing off again to fling himself over the gap. He repeated this process similarly to move from one building to the next, grabbing on to ledges where it was needed and climbing up where buildings got taller.

He kept a keen eye on the spreading undergrowth, wondering just how far Gamma-Burn's power had spread. Had it reached his building? [i]I can only imagine how Hal and Dean would react to that,[/i] he thought, almost smiling. Despite the disadvantage of his unconventional means of travel, Lilian kept up with the supervillain pretty damn well, and was standing atop a nearby building only moments after the...not so intimidating figure came to a stop. Watching Gamma-Burn through his camera, Lilian caught the action of the acclaimed fiend pulling off his mask. He grimaced at the blood that spilled out of his mouth, lowering his camera as he looked at the scene with his own eyes. Gamma-Burn looked so tiny in that moment. It was...kinda pathetic... Was this really Gamma-Burn? [i]Maybe it's one of his followers posing as him?[/i] he thought, finding it hard to believe that the infamous villain could be...in such a poor state. Surely, [i]surely[/i], it wasn't the real Gamma-Burn. Gamma-Burn was probably in another part of the city, building up to something [i]huge[/i] to ring in the 'holiday' that was Earth Day. This guy...well, he was probably just here to distract Stag King? That...made sense...right? Right??

As the figure that looked like Gamma-Burn took off again, Lilian kept up still, finding a bit of ease in the matter as the guy kept stumbling. Something definitely wasn't right, but before Li could think much further on the strange behavior, he noticed something. With the rising heat, and the pure deterioration from the radiation coming off of this guy, city structures were losing their stability. One in particular, a streetlight, seemed to be leaning a bit too far. In moments, the streetlight was taking a creaking dive right toward the man and without another thought, Li called out, "HEY!" he shouted down across the street, but it seemed to have no effect. The streetlight got caught in some thick vines, but it definitely wasn't stopping, the vines stretching and snapping under the weight of the metal structure. With a quick look around, Lilian found a chunk of concrete that had chipped off of some part of the building he was standing on. Probably some debris from a lightning hit or something. He quickly grabbed it, then, stepping up to the very edge of the top of the building and putting all his strength into the movement, he chucked the concrete shard as hard and as far as he could.

Surprisingly, it hit a structure just a ways in the direction of the falling streetlight, making a resounding [i]CLONG[/i] that filled the area. Unfortunately, the force of his movement also threw Lilian himself forward, and just like that, he was free-falling.

[i]Well...[/i] he thought, [i]If there was one way to die, I guess this would be it...[/i]
