December 15th, 2038 - New Orleans, Louisiana[/b][/color][/h3][/center][hr] There was a moment of peace as the prison settled and Prudence, for a moment, seemed fine, until she gripped the sides of her head and her mouth opened in the silent scream. She was frozen for the moment, overwhelmed by whatever Dorian's attack had done. The moment was all the peace lasted. The sounds of a pissed off demon could still be heard through the rock wall and Thelma, separated from the rest of the group, felt her eye twitch. Thuy was going to be difficult to reign in after this. Shots were heard inside the prison, chunks of it blowing out until it crumbled, Skyler's shots bringing it to rubble. “Burying your gays, really?” Skyler rolled his eyes, waving out the sting in his hands from casting so quickly. “That’s homophobic.” “Jeez, you're kinda mean, you know that?” Ava pouted as she panted from their brief struggle. Thelma took a step forward through the rubble and Ava's head snapped in her direction. “Hey, I hope you're as good at that with people. Boss lady's finished!” Ava laughed, her magic rising off her skin and bursting, wrapping itself around Thuy and Thelma. Wil swore under their breath, shields whirling at lighting and fire once again followed one after another and Wil caught both, but Wil's shields weren't enough to stop it entirely. Wil saw Thelma entering the fray. “Oh thank fuck.” Thelma stopped next to Prudedence, one hand settling gently on the telekinetic's shoulder, while the other swirled magic, weaving it into fine, crackling threads, and tossed it at April. Thuy, scowling as she shook dirty from her hair, sent burning chains from around Thelma at April, Wil's shield following close behind. “What the fuck, bitch?! Can't you fucking tell I am [i]trying[/i] not to kill all of you?” Thuy barked at Leah. “Bury me again and I will let them tear your ass limb from limb!” One second Tatiana was primed and ready to fuck someone up. The next moment… she wasn't really certain. It was definitely the Contest of Champions and they were definitely fighting but who these people were and what they could do, she had no fucking idea. It was like a bad fucking trip and she wasn't even sure how the fuck she'd gotten here. “What in the…” Tatiana needed a moment, but as chains flew out at some blond headed bimbo with Wil's shield close behind, Tatiana shrugged. If they wanted to fuck that bitch up in particular, who was she to question it? “I don't know who fucked me up, but let me return the favor!” Tatiana was practically a blur and with April's back wide open, Tati was [i]ready[/i].

He pulled out a worn wood pipe and a tin, popping innocent and beginning to pack tobacco into it. [i][color=5b8a9a]“Remind your debtor that though abandoned, the jewel is still a potent danger. Handling it without their ward will bear consequences.”[/color][/i] At the same moment, Vicky would receive a series of messages quickly from her synthezoid ally: [hider=To Vicky]STANDBY… I DO NOT SEE ANY CANDY IN THEIR RECORDS. HOWEVER, THEY HAVE NOT CONSUMED ANY. THE ONLY DECLARED ITEM THEY HAVE USED SO FAR IS A MACE. WHY?[/hider] Val sat there in complete disbelief, looking out at the stage. Andy hadn’t been seen in over a decade. She’d vanished after Genosha’s fall, disappearing alongside Selene - a task Val had not discouraged her from taking upon herself. A wave of emotions hit her, and for a brief moment, she flickered in and out of sight. There was relief in seeing Andy - but shame, too. [color=935DB8]”She was one of us,”[/color] Val explained to her wife simply. Had everyone else known? Had they not trusted her with this information? Had they brought Andy back? She bit her lip, before deciding solidly on remaining invisible, vanishing from sight but not leaving her seat. [color=add3ff]”I’ve been,”[/color] Dominika hesitated for a moment, before deciding she didn’t have the energy to pretend otherwise. [color=add3ff]”Shit. How about you?”[/color] She then nodded slightly, holding up two fingers. Well. Only one now. Diana had definitely been expelled after this. [color=add3ff]”My son’s the tiny one,”[/color] she added, indicating Percy on the field.
