December 15th, 2038 - New Orleans, Louisiana[/b][/color][/h3][/center][hr] Prudence’s situation wasn’t ideal, Thelma admitted as her ward shrugged off the rocks with ease, but at least Thelma could turn it into an advantage. She regarded their teleporter with mild confusion but the distraction was enough as she felt something slither into her mind and take hold, her hands weaving of their own accord and the wards cracked, shattered, and fell as she released the spell. Thelma only had time to take half a step back before her mind went bank, pain and static the only thing searching across her eyes. She gritted her teeth against the pain but her body wasn’t [i]responding[/i]. She was vulnerable. Wil swore, one shield flying up to protect Thelma against the brunt of the attack against her. Prudence collapsed in a flight of lighting and fire and vanished before her head hit the ground. “Stick to the plan. One of them is nearly broken and another isn’t far behind.” They commanded, stepping up to Sabine with a nasty grin and swinging a shield straight at her face. Skyler hummed softly, his magic weaving around Thelma. They all began to bend and sway, shifting this way and that, making it almost impossible to tell who the real one was even standing still. Ava side stepped around Danni and threw a punch, the smile she’d worn the whole match gone and the glow more intense as she threw a punch at April instead. Watching this round go down, even as that bitch slipped away from her fists, Tatiana came to the conclusion that she didn’t need to know the plan or the target priority or whatever other nonsense was happening. The only thing she needed to know was who the [i]fuck[/i] had the audacity strip Thelma of her autonomy and thankfully, that blonde headed bimbo shouted that shit out loud. “Command these hands, cunt!” Tatiana screamed, hands moving like blurs. Thuy took a deep breath, her skin pressing outwards in strange faces and shapes as Thelma’s barrier fell. Breathing techniques, breathing techniques, everything was fine. Thelma was still in control. Wil was backing her up. The team was pumped to fuck these bicthes up. Still, someone was dying this round for their audacity. She spoke, eyes glowing and voices echoing across the field, and a mote of light quickly grew into a boiling ball between her hands and the shadows it cast laughed and danced across the field.

For all the effort she went through to be stoic… He shook his head. Children would always find ways to make themselves bigger than they were. This would be good for her. He glanced back at Barty as his services were offered and he took a curl of smoke from his pipe and spun it between his fingers. The illusion took shape into a familiar red orb that fit comfortably in his palm. He offered it up for Vicky's inspection. She then would receive another series of messages from Vision: [hider=VICKY]IF YOU HAVE CONCRETE EVIDENCE, PLEASE SUBMIT IT TO ME AND I WILL PRESENT IT TO CONTEST OFFICIALS. DO YOU HAVE EVIDENCE? IT IS NICE TO SEE YOU CARING SO DEEPLY FOR YOUR FRIENDS.[/hider]
