Sabine had mentally prepared herself despite recent events. The fiasco at the Kingston-Gray household that had nearly ruined her still had moments of gray. Danni storming off and not talking to anyone (least of all her), Leah essentially proposing marriage, and Vicky speaking to her about how they can now read each other's thoughts had all merged into a lump in the pit of her stomach. She had been looking forward to this. Did she still want it as badly as before? They were facing off against a team she knew very little about. The only recognition she had was the girl she met at the hotel. The one who shamelessly flirted with her. Sabine glanced at Leah inadvertently. She didn't do anything, but did she stop it? [color=A2797E][i]"This is going to be an interesting fight,"[/i][/color] she thought, knowing Vicky would hear it. Another sinking feeling: she had no one in the stands rooting for her. She figured the Kingston and Gray families were here for Danni and Dorian and, by extension, April. She-Hulk would be for Leah. Percy had family, she was sure. Andy had family, also. She knew her father and stepmother would not be here. She was here for herself and her team, and that would have to be enough. The battle commenced with trash talk. Before she could respond, she saw Thuy lash out at her, fiery chains aimed to hit her. She instinctively held up her arms but felt nothing. Well, not entirely true. She felt a cool presence. She looked and saw a sphere made of water wash over her, taking the brunt of the attack. The sphere dissipated and Sabine was unhurt. She looked over at April, at how she had stuck up for her, for Leah also. Sabine wanted to run over, take April in her arms and hug her until it hurt, but now was not the time. [color=A2797E]"Thanks April."[/color] She focused her attention back on Thuy. [color=A2797E]"I'm good, thanks. I go out with winners."[/color] Sabine noted that, while Thuy was tough, her team were getting prepared themselves. Sabine knew she was not a powerhouse by any means. She would need to support others and take the Hex Girls down to their level. Sabine moved back, allowing the heavy hitters to go forward. If they could protect her, she could supplement them. She eyed Dorian and briefly sent a telepathic link, allowing her to boost his abilities. He would be able to do more damage. [color=A2797E]"You got this Dorian!"[/color] [hider=Round 1]Sabine: [list][*]Health: 30 [*]Focus: 85 [*]Karma: 2 [*]Notes - [list] [*]As an action, Sabine uses Bump Power on Dorian, costing 5 focus, to boost his Telikinetic Attack power. If the power has ranges or areas or durations, these are doubled. If the power affects a damage multiplier, add 1 to the effect. Any effects that normally happen with a Fantastic success automatically happen on any success, not just a Fantastic one. If the power has a cost, Sabine must pay it as well, with a minimum of 5 Focus. [*]Movement - [list] [*]Sabine moves towards the back behind her team members.[/list][/list][/list][/hider]
