Deadly reunions

<< many moons ago, the young woman who would be come "Dominique Deveraux" witnessed what she called "a most unholy birth"...the birth of a child that claimed her sister's life. She tried to DESTROY the child, knowing who its father was...but she could not. Many years and changes later, even imbued with the Power of ISIS , the backing of the Sisterhood and all other accomplishments, even as "Isis" stands poised to FINALLY destroy this source of evil, she will find again that it is not so easy.>>

<< the battle between the Six and the Sisterhood has suddenly become...pointless. Each side taking hits as well as giving. Pandora and the secrets of the earth remained protected, deep underground in the alien technology bolsted "catacombs" of Minerva's mansion.>>

<< even as the Six was called to regroup by Harbinger, and Morgan gathered them together...Isis seemed poised to to strike Nicolas, but then, as Harbinger had predicted, a force beyond Isis was coming to manifest...something that would eclipse anything that the Six or the Sisterhood thought was pressing at the moment.>>

<< everything was about to change...as secrets were revealed and lives were endangered.>>

<< and so we watch.>>
 
Isis had WON. In spite of the efforts of the Six and the resilience of her quarry, she stood now with the same dagger that failed so many years before, ready to finish what she had plotted since that very night. But this time she was stronger, Isis HERSELF had blessed her with the power to vanquish her enemy. And as he lay prone, she smiled bitterly as the blade came down...

Nicolas eyes snapped open and he quickly grabbed her wrists, breaking them as he stopped her from slicing him with the blade. He lifted both her hands with his right as he stood, then jumped quickly forward, smashing her into the wall behind.

Nicolas then did something that NO ONE, not even the Seer could have imagined. He kissed Isis roughly on the mouth as he jammed his free hand up her skirt, making her squirm. As he spoke, his booming voice was impossibly deep and reeked of malice. No one would recognize it, except Isis herself.

Greetings, fleshling. I have returned for you, and my SON.

Nicolas' voice returns in a horrifying roar and he changes back to his normal color as he tosses Isis away....


NOOOO!!! NO--GETOUTOFMYHEAD!!!!LEAVETHEMBE!!!!

He looks at Morgan and the others and whispers one last word on his own...

RUN!

Nicolas changes back to the darker coloration and the markings return. He lifts his hand as his axe comes back to him. With a grunt, He swings it at the floor, smashing a hole that was both in the floor yet BEYOND. As he continues to swing madly, a huge hand emerges from the hole, grasping his arms and pulling as a new form emerges...

He was over seven feet tall, about as wide as Haleigh was tall, and was as black as night, his skin really without color, more like a reflective void. On his skin were large markings that matched Nicolas', and his features were filled with malevolence even as they wee also impossibly...HANDSOME without exception. He wore Royal blue metallic-looking armored pants and boots and was shirtless. He had a large matching metallic-looking glove on his left hand and forearm. Across his shoulder was a grotesque belt upon which hung skulls of various humanoid and non-humanoid beings, none of which appeared completely HUMAN. He smiled a wide grin as looked forward at Nicolas, who had sunk to his knees.

Nicolas... I have come for you...

Nicolas rose, looking at this new being, then reached out his hand. Isis and Morgan were immediately pulled into Nicolas' grasp...

in the mansion!

:: Malice helps Enchantra to her feet and immediately forms a deflection field between the two and the Six who are now gathered together across the grand foyer.::

Helena...something is wrong...

:: she looks Helena in the eyes:

DEADLY WRONG!

:: for MALICE to show such trepidation, her psychic sense must have registered something along the lines of what Harbinger was seeing as a precog. indeed, the feedback on the astral plane was TREMENDOUS.::

We have to get Isis and get the hell out of here! The mission...it's NOT worth our LIVES!

:: at that moment, Malice turns to see Isis scream as she is attacked by Nicolas.::

that sound!

:: the voice was worse than a crash of thunder, and the mannerism of Nicolas he assaulted Isis, it SURPRISED even Malice.::

That's NOT the boy. He's POSESSED, by something ...someone...with such FORCE!

:: as Nicolas tosses her to the side, Malice directs Enchantra::

Quickly, bring her to us...and we're out of here. To HELL with whatever is happening with Nicolas, let THEM handle their telekinetic pup.

:: but even then, ANOTHER being appeard, a monstrous being in the form of a man, well put together in appearence, but reeking of "evil"...on a level that surpassed even MALICE. He was not of this world. Isis was caught in some sort of riptide as she was being pulled away. Whatever her beef with the Six, Malice had learned that part of the secret to THEIR success was "team work" and watching each other's backs. Since their return to this reality, Malice was applying techniques she'd gained from her alternate in the last timeline, and so far the Sisterhood had become a much greater threat to the Six. It was moments like THIS though, that threatened to SHATTER the image of Malice as a TOTALLY uncaring woman.::

Isis isnt going ANYWHERE with you, you overgrown OAF! We're taking our leave of here...and YOU aren't going to stop us! RELEASE HER!

:: Malice "salutes" and manifests a psi javeline. the presence of this being registers with her on such a level that she KNOWS she has to use LETHAL force.::

:: she takes aim and HURLS the psi javeline, which is nothing less than pure, raw PSI LIGHTNING which would obliterate a normal mind, reducing the brain to true "mush" and leaving the body a lifeless heap.::
 
[ the moment of revenge, the moment of justice was AT HAND!]

It is DONE....IT....

[ Isis' eyes widen with SHOCK when Nicolas' grabs her wrists wich such precision and force...he stops her, breaking her wrists and then throwing her into the wall. she cries out with pain, and grief...not at this, b ut at the thought of failing again after all this preparation....]

CREATURE OF EVIL! You are NOT FIT TO BE HERE! The blood of MY SISTER IS WHAT LIGHT YOUR PATH... [grimacing] INTO THIS WORLD!

[ Then...in a repugnant act that was an echo of the attack that her sister had sustained the night she conceived Nicolas, he MOLESTS Dominique...and she SPITS in his face.]

I am NOT the young girl i was all those years ago!

[ her own magicks going into over drive as the pain in her wrists is steadily decreased. She has no time to retaliate further as she is tossed away. Her mind can't HELP but flash back to how she tried to stop the monster as he assaulted her sister...and HE tossed her out of the hut!]

It will NOT BE LIKE IT WAS THE LAST TIME! I have POWER! I will use it to DESTROY YOU!

[ her voice defiant. but she is winded, she can't quite get up ...her MIND can't solidify on a spell to cast...it's as if she HAS regressed...its as if history is DOOMED to repeat itself. but she hear's Malice ordering Enchantra to get her out of there...and Malice HERSELF defying the creature. ]

[ Isis has no choice but to hope, to RELY on the help of the Sisterhood if she is to triumph over this NIGHTMARE...but before she can act, she is pulled away by a force.]

NO! I will NOT go with you! You belong in HELL with your FATHER!

[ Malice launches a massive psi javeline at the being. and Isis herself transforms into her explosive sand storm form....holding NOTHING back as she attemps to scour Nicolas' body to the bone. ]
 
<< Spellbinder and the others look...it is unimaginable that they would just STAND there while Isis prepares to strike down one of their own, but Harbinger demands that they do nothing...and NOW she sees why!>>

NICOLAS!

<< the tone is all wrong, the LOOK...and what he does to ISIS...it causes Morgan to cover her mouth, she INSTANTLY feels sympathy for the woman, who is now being victimized by the man.>>

<< frantically she turns to Alison.>>

WHAT IS IT!? What's HAPPENED to him? it's NOT a posession, i can't sense any MAGICK involved.

<< the monstrous humanoid male being appeared...he was as large as any one of the mammoth statues that could be found through out the mansion, but his presence was anything but beauty...it was despair.>>

WHO is THAT!?

Harbinger: THAT is the presence that i couldnt clearly discern. His CONNECTION to Nicolas is what allows him to be here!

<< Nicolas, in a fleeting moment of reasserting himself, tells them to RUN...but none of them can QUITE bring themselves to just ABANDON him, just as Malice and Enchantra cant seem to abandon Isis.>>

We have to subdue him! carry him to Limbo and FIX this before....

<< she felt a force overpowering her body and pulling her away from ALison and the others....it caught her by surprise, like being pulled into the riptide of a whirlpool! she was coming toward the being. it was like...being pulled into the seige Perilous again!!>>

NO!! NOT AGAIN!
 
:: Harbinger glared at Nicolas unwaveringly as he awoke and attacked Isis.::

That ISN'T Nicolas...not anymore!

:: she started getting flashes...black and white images of a traumatic summer night in an african village, images of Dominique as she was B EFORE being transformed by ISIS herself....and a BABY...::

:: but these images were disjointed, and HARDLY what Alison needed at this MOMENT.::

There's NO TIME to help him NOW Morgan! We have to get you OUT of here before...

:: and just like that, Morgan was being pulled away.::

NO! You're NOT taking her!

:: she thrusts her hand out::

Spellbinder!

:: Spellbinder is enveloped by dark orbs and TELEBLINKED back down to them, BEHIND Sharon.::

Silver Swan...GET HER UNDER GROUND!

::After Morgan, Sharon was physically the strongest of the women. Her invulnerability and her adamantium armour made her the PERFECT body guard.::



:: Harbinger saw Malice attacking the being.::

Malice has it right! Morningstar, use your laser blast...everyone who can, FIRE on him! FULL POWER! and then....we're OUT of here!

:: a cue to Morningstar to WORMHOLE them underground where Alison would then cast a spell to get them to Limbo IF Morgan was unable to teleport.::
 
MorningStar got to her feet after pummeling Morgan out of the way of Malice's psi javelin, then stood as if frozen next to Harbinger and Persephone. She couldn't look away at the sight that befell them, she couldn't run, she couldn't do ANYTHING to help Nicolas. She felt powerless, like the events that were unfolding were set in stone and all they could do was watch them happen.

But standing there was not an option, not really, SOMETHING had to be done. And as the hulking figure came forth and seemed to CONTROL Nicolas - or what USED to be Nicolas - and he pulled Morgan to him, it was as if all of them snapped out of a dream. Harbinger brought Morgan to safety and told them what to do like the true leader she was.

MorningStar immediately unleashed the largest laser blast she could muster out of one hand - outstreched, fingers together, pointed as the new being in their midst. The other hand pointed behind her, where green threads of light left her fingertips and formed her signature wormhole tunnel that would allow them to escape underground.

"Everyone - hurry!"
 
<< Karen glared with contempt at Helena. The woman was as slippery as an eel. clever and resourcefull....Karen's rivalry with Helena had a long, bitter history.>>

I'll be GLAD to ESCALATE my efforts to EXTERMINATE you...you destructive little BEAST!

<< but at that moment, Karen was brought back to the group and as things went from bad to worse, Karen watched with utter dismay as Nicolas rose and attacked Isis. The doctor couldnt BELIEVE what she was seeing from this man. But Alison reminded th em that this WASNT Nicolas...at least not now.>>

We should go...

<< sounding oddly calm...but in her heart, she was terrified, for Morgan, for all of them. If Alison couldnt IMMEDIATELY "see" what was coming next..how could they DEFEND? it wasnt like before, them getting along WITHOUT the precog's ability, it was something all together different. Nicolas, under the power of some other force, some BEING who now presented "himself".>>

<< as Morgan was pulled away by force, she cried out. Harbinger was the first to act and Karen's instinct as a mother kicked in.>>

LEAVE MY DAUGHTER ALONE!

<< lifting her hands as she ignited magick>>

hellspawn demon creature of death!
HELLFIRE shall take your very BREATH!


<< and with that, the doctor, looking more like her alternate SHADOW WEAVER in that instance, unleashes a powerfull attack of mystic "flames" that were intended to consume the being's lungs, his organs...his very SOUL....assuming he HAD one.>>


<< Sharon was now whisking Morgan out of the grand foyer and Alison directed Karen to follow them while THEY backed Karen's and Malice's strike against the being.>>


Mike, you're with me! You'll be safer!

<< she takes Mike;'s hand and runs into the worm hole.>>
 
from the mansion, to the underground

[standing tall, the mutate looked on. like the dawn of the dead, the nightmare truly begins. Nicolas comes to "life" in a most unholy, inhuman way...much like Kyle. He attacks Isis, before another being comes into view. MASSIVE creature, in humanoid form. Sharon had been down this road before, but even so, this was different.]

[ as the Six stood, transfixed by the horror, MALICE was the first to defy the being, and as he tried to abduct Morgan and Isis, Harbinger teleblinked her away from the pull and charged SHARON to get her out of there.]

Come on Morgan...we're OUT of here!

[ she didnt want to abandon Nicolas...but what could they do? according to ALISON it was too late! it was as though they were leaving him the way she had no choice but to lose Kyle. Would they have to KILL him in order to save him?]

[ Silver Swan was ready for action. her invulnerability, her adamantium bodice, "gloves" and high heeled boots, coupled with her amazon training as a fighter and her other powers (flight, super strength, wind funnel/spinning stars and sonic scream among them) made her suited to be a "body guard" and she would protect Spellbinder or ANY of them with all her power.]

I don't know what's happening, but NO one is going to get to you unless they pass ME first!

[ indeed, that would be a difficult task for MOST, but that being looked like he could rise to the challenge. Still, Sharon wouldnt back down.]

[ through the worm hole they went, with Karen close behind, appearing underground.]
 
underground

<< the role of "Damsel in distress" did NOT suit Morgan. Whatever FEAR she felt, it was being replaced with each passing moment, by resentment...and ANGER. Nicolas, the supposed MAVERICK telekinetic/telepath couldnt even WARN them? he couldnt reach out to Alison or HER? and after seeing her attack Isis, foe or not, Morgan was truly appalled at his treatment of her.>>

<< as Alison teleblinked her out of the grip of that otherworldly being, Spellbinder looked back...her icy violet eyes glaring with contempt at the being that now called to Nicolas.>>

enjoy this moment, ceature. You'll be calling for y our own diety to comfort you when i split you in TWO for what you've done to Nicolas!


<< she leaves with Sharon, who promises to protect her.>>

Thank you Sharon....this IS quite a role reversal...but I thank you for your help.

<< a chime sounds off as Spellbinder's SOUL SWORD leaps from Limbo into her hand! and with that, eldritch mystic armour forms over that hand, arm and shoulder, as well as the chest area >>

My SWORD! It came to me without calling...the danger must be SEVERE in order for that to happen!

<< the reach the underground tunnels and run for the sealed catacombs.>>

We havent been able to pinpoint just WHAT or WHO that is with Nicolas...but I'll be DAMNED if it takes ME without a fight!

<< the sorceress said as she stood with Silver Swan standing in front of her.>>

<< Karen arrived seconds later...>>
 
Firebird would stand by Black Widow and Rampage while Isis unleashed a deadly attack on both women. Firebird's while in her natural element would flicker as the air currents would tug her upward towards the ceiling. She had no choice but to morph back into her human form. Both she and Black Widow were up high from the ground just as Morgan called for them back, summoning them back to the team.

The disk opening as Firebird and Black Widow appeared landing on her feet. "Why did you summon us she's going to kill him!" Roared Blaze who pointed towards Isis while Alison would scream for silence. Glaring at the seer just as Isis would launce the dagger down, "No!!" She cried out only to see Nicolas' hands launce forward. A sigh of relief washed over her but there was something weird about him that Blaze's senses detected.

The next few events would shock the fire elemental as Nicolas molested Isis only to discard like an old newspaper. "Nicolas?" Had that been Malice's doing? But another figure would appear that dripped evil as Blaze turned to see Morgan cry out for her lover's name. It was a gut wrenching moment to see her sister cry out for Nicolas. "Morgan, Alison is right we can't help him..."

The seconds would pass as Morgan and Isis would be pulled away from their respected teammates. "No!!" Lunging forward into the air to wrap her arm around Morgan's but the powerful vortex was too much for the fire elemental for she didn't possess the strength that Silver Swan or Black Widow had. "Morgan!" Harbinger had flawless timing as she would teleblink Spellbinder out of harm's way while Malice and Karen would hurl their own attacks at this creature.

Firebird knew if anyone wouldn't leave Nicolas it would be Black Widow. She was as stubborn as an ox. Running up to her to coil her arms around her protectively like a sister would. "Hales, we NEED to go." Placing a fire barrier around the hybrid to try and keep her contained knowing Haleigh would try to break free as she'd pull them back towards Morningstar's worm hole. Clenching her teeth, Blaze's eyes landed onto Persephone, "Ava, help me out!" She grunted knowing that Ava would help the situation since she was Haleigh's sister and nothing was stronger than the bond of sisters. Blaze kept her hold onto the hybrid though as they would approach Morningstar's worm hole.

"Let's go, D!"

Blaze needed to make sure Morningstar was on her way as well while she attacked the horrible creature.

Haleigh was swept away as Isis turned to sand once more.... she found herself falling, as if into oblivion.... it was like when Firebird had dropped her... she couldn't see THIS time either, sand was EVERYWHERE! She didn't HAVE to react though.... Morgan teleported her to safety quickly, bringing the group together.... as Alison admonished them to STOP.... Haleigh looked at the Seer as if she'd lost her MIND.

"WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?! I'M NOT JUST GOING TO WATCH HER MURDER NICOLAS, WE HAVE TO HELP HIM!"

Alison was right.... Haleigh was stubborn to a fault... but she still believed Nicolas could be saved and it would take a LOT to change her mind. Blaze tried to stop her as well, grabbing her arm.... Haleigh WRENCHED her arm away, snarling at Blaze like a woman POSSESSED:

"LET GO OF ME!"

Shemanifested a fire extinguisher and put out the ring of fire meant to slow her down and pushed past Alison, headed for Isis again, this time with a long sword in hand, ready to slice Isis in half BEFORE she turned to dust.... but she slowed to a halt halfway there.... Nicolas had woken up... he was KISSING Isis.... he was MAULING her! Haleigh was beyond stunned.... she was bewildered.

"Nicolas WHAT are you doing...."

She asked, rhetorically.... but it didn't sound like Nicolas.... it sounded like something else completely.

But then it was Nicolas again... he was fighting whatever had a hold on him.... he was telling them all to RUN. Haleigh's expression was vexed, and she shook her head curtly.

"I'm NOT leaving without you! [grabbing his arm, prepared to haul him back to the group] I've have enough of this heroics shit for one day, you're not sacrificing yourself TONIGHT!"

But he pulled easily from her grasp... he changed back... and then he began hacking into the floor.... opening some kind of bizarre portal.... something was emerging from it.... something that made Haleigh RECOIL... an instinctual reaction that was rare for the hybrid.... she was beginning to entertain the thought that Malice's 'deadly wrong' assessment might be correct.... and that Alison had been RIGHT about them needing the LEAVE. Haleigh stared up at the giant, and began to quickly BACKTRACK. Morningstar had opened a wormhole... and everyone was disappearing into it. Haleigh was further away than the others, who began ATTACKING the new being with all their might. Haleigh found herself do her best just to get OUT of the way of their attacks, some dodging of which actually took her further AWAY from the group. Everyone was cutting their losses and making a run for it, and Haleigh knew it'd be FOOLHARDY to stay at this point.... even if she could get Nicolas to snap back to himself.... the attacks on the new being weren't even AFFECTING it!

She begins to SPRINT for the wormhole... but the distance seems to double, TRIPLE... like some kind of bad nightmare, or her mind playing tricks on her....

There's no time to TALK, Firebird...just GET into the wormhole!

:: Harbinger ushered Morningstar through after her tremendous laser blast and Karen's hellfire strike. Black Widow was running, and Harbinger, extended her hand "beckoning" as she warped Haleigh's temporal field and SPED HER UP to reach the worm hole that much faster.::

:: Harbinger and Persephone were the last two left.::


Persephone, a HURRICANE is what we need!

:: Harbinger glares at Nicolas and his companion as Persephone lashes out with a powerfull hurricane with winds that would tople battle tanks and lightning strikes that would shatter mountains. Harbinger herself thrusts her hands out ala' Piper Halliwell and BLASTS the being with her molecular acceleration. not once...but TWICE, intending to BLOW UP his chest cavity utterly.::

:: she did not bother to wait, instead, she pushed Persephone th rough the wormhole and as she entered herself, she yelled for Delilah to close it.::

:: those who could, had unleashed powerfull attacks against the being, but the precog knew it was a SLIM chance that any of them had any TRUE lasting effect.::

:: now, underground, outside of the sealed catacombs.::

....

:: she looks distressed.::

he's still coming. He'll be here ANY SECOND!

:: seeing Morgan now with the soul sword...::

get ready to strike for your lives! Morgan...you have to LEAVE. He wants YOU. You can't worry about us...if he gets his hands on you...
 
:: the psychic feedback was tremendous.::

:: as she and Enchantra both did what they could to get Isis AWAY from Nicolas and the monstrous new comer, both the telepath and the omnimorph had to get out of the way of a FLURRY of onslaughts from the Six as they too attempted to protect their own.::


:: it became evident to Malice that in order for them to survive, they were going to have to fall back as well.::

telepathically to Enchantra: our powers combined can COMPLETELY mask us from detection. If we're going to save Isis and get out of here ALIVE we need to let the creature stay focused on THEM for now. just follow my lead.

:: and with that, Malice and Enchantra suitably cloak themselves on a mental and physical level. but they won't leave without Isis. They simply plan to use circumstance in their favor...providing that they all dont get blown away in one fell swoop.::
 
As the females hurtled toward Nicolas, one was teleblinked away from his grasp. The other turned into sand in an attempt to scour away his body. The young metahuman, or what he was now, began to roar in anticipated pain but, the cry soon turned into maniacal laughter as he stood against the onslaught, his skin recovering as fast as it was scoured away.

Meanwhile, Malice's psi javelin hurtled toward the new figure and he SMILED. Raising his hand, he CAUGHT the javelin and reduced it to a ball of lightning, pure psychic energy, in his hand.

So you wish to try your hand with me, Diana? You will find the result not to your liking.

Isis sand form coalesced quickly into human as the figure glanced over to Nicolas. The sand form of Isis is pulled to the new being, who SLAPS her with a portion of the psychic power he had harnessed, causing her to revert to humanoid form and to fall from the air. He caught her by the throat and pulled her to him, face to face.

Foolish woman, did you think that ISIS could protect YOU??!! There is a reason she did not try to attack me herself.

And as for you...

The figure now faced the others as Karen and Delilah unleashed their attack and Delilah intended to usher them away via wormhole.

He simply withstood the laser attack, the shards of the beam shattering columns in the mansion behind him.The molecular acceleration was slowed by his own power, and dissipated. The sound of skin burning could be heard for a second as Karen's mystic flames reached the figure, but even this attack only elicited a grunt from him as he began to deflect them with what Malice and Alison would recognize as telekinetic force. He then utilized the winds of the hurricane from Persephone to blow the fire out of the mansion itself, damaging it further as all of the windows blew out. Morgan, who was beside Sharon in full armor, was dragged at the speed of a thought beside Nicolas as the pair teleported underground with Isis. Nicolas tossed her behind him with more force than she had ever seen him bring to bear. He then stepped forward, slamming his hands together.

His strength combined with his telekinesis augmented by the new figure served to push outward with devastating effect, akin to a bomb blast inside the catacombs itself. Everyone before him, except Mike (strangely) was blown backwards with the force of tons of TNT.

you will find that you are quite outmatched.
 
underground

<< Sharon and Morgan both gasped as Nicolas and his companion appeared before them.>>

Nicolas...you FOOL! You're letting him CONTROL YOU!

<< she spat with agitation...it was becoming harder for her to remember that this wasnt HIM [necessarily] behind these actions. >>

<< her high heeled boots were suddenly dragging along the ground.>>

what??

<< and suddenly she met with Nicolas' grasp.>>

LET GO OF ME!

<< he tosses her behind him...with such force...she hits her head on a rock...and is painfully stunned. her soul sword and armour remain though...>>

ohhh....

<< she groans...dizzy and stunned .>>
 
[ Silver Swan squared her shoulders as the two appeared.]

KEEP AWAY!

[ she commanded. It felt like she was once again protecting her SON from the goons at Arklay Mansion...only it was MORGAN instead of her son and this was Minerva's mansion and one of the "goons" was NICOLAS. what a horrid irony.]

[ but this time, Sharon had POWER.]

NO! MORGAN!

[ Nicolas pulled Morgan towards her and Sharon reachedout to her attempting to GRAB her but she missed. With fluent speed of her OWN, Silver Swan charged forward like a torpedo, AHEAD of the blast sent against the Six. Her own speed and invulnerability made her perfect for this moment.]

GIVE HER BACK you BASTARD!

[ she HURLS Nicolas into the wall, HOPING to knock him out...and as she BOLDLY fronts off this new man, she unleashes her SONIC SCREAM at FULL POWER against him. it was documented before that prolonged exposure to her scream would cause a person to violently seize or hemorage to death..or even a violent cranial explosion! the sonic scream also had concussive impact, as witnessed when she blasted Haleigh's mini sentinel out of Illustra.]

[ but would it be ENOUGH?]

[ Sharon was prepared to do WHATEVER she could to stop them from taking Morgan.]

Firebird would turn to also run towards the worn hole Delilah had projected. As she would disappear through the field with the others of the Six. Quickly jogging down the flight of stairs while glancing over her shoulder at Alison's creepy prediction that he was coming.

Through all of the chaos Blaze hadn't noticed the appearance of the soul sword until now. It must have been a devastatingly dangerous situation for that weapon to be here. Harbinger would warn that Morgan needed to know and Blaze would nod in agreement as she'd turn towards Silver Swan, "Do not let anything happen to her."

But it was at that exact moment that Spellbinder was snatched away, "No!" She cried out as Morgan was gone along with Silver Swan who moved with the force of a torpedo. Firebird had little time to react as a bomb blast had been ignited to propel her through the air as she was thrown violently through one of the nearby walls as dust and debris littered the area. The ground underneath them would tremble from the attack. Buried under all that rubble, Firebird would awoken as a jolt of pain slithered up her spine. "Arrgghh!" Blood seeped through her mouth as she looked forward to see she was buried just as Silver Swan had earlier.

Her hands had been buried with her, which was where her power had been channeled. The stale air around her made it harder to breath as she struggled to free her hands. Lifting them to augment a form of thermal energy to blow the debris right off her with a current of humid air. Sitting up as she held her side in pain. Pushing herself she'd get up as she'd walk out from where she had been thrown.

"He is really pissing me off now!"
 
The rest of the team was blown back by the thunderclap except one especially tough bird of prey. Sharon grabbed Nicolas as threw him into the wall with enough force to shake the mountain. Even in this new form , Nicolas was dazed, and fel to his knees for a moment as she turned on the new figure.
Her sonic attack came from nowhere, even for him, and the blast of its force propelled him through the catacomb wall and out of the mountain itself, far into the distance as he splashed into the ocean!!!

As the new figure landed outside, Nicolas form shuddered and reverted to normal. He stood quickly and screamed to the team.

RUN!!! Run from here!!! Isis rune and her hatred of me has doomed us all. He will not be gone for much---ARRRRRRGHHHHHH!! The power...his power...

Nicolas voice changed back as his markings returned.

I am afraid it is too late for us all.

The figure teleported before Sharon and punched her in the stomach, sending her into a far wall. He roared before stopping to...applaud.

Impressive. You remind me of an Egyptian scarab. A worthy concubine for me, if I could stomach the hellish racket. Have at it.

Sharon met him in the middle as they traded blows. Her punches actually do some damage and she evades his blows well thanks to her Amazonian training. Finally, he seizes her, tossing her back to the rest of the team telekinetically with the force of a freight train.

Begone, I have no time to spar today. I am here for what is mine, and what is my son's.

Reaching out, Haleigh is pulled to his grasp and he speaks with her.

YOU. You love Nicolas as well, but you deny yourself. No longer. You shall have the honor of being his concubine.

With that, the figure encases Haleigh in a cage of pure telekinetic force and places her behind him as he faces his enemies anew. Pointing to Mike, he speaks again.

YOU were his servant. If you wish, I will allow you to accompany us, along with your woman and the other you desire.

As he points to Karen and then...AVA!

Mike answers quickly, much to his regret.


I will not join you. Never. Release the boy and let him make his own choic-

Mike sinks to his knees as the team looks on in horror. His face no longer has a mouth or nose. If they do not act quickly to open his airway, he will die in minutes. He slumps to one side as he looks on at Nicolas, a tear falling from his eye.

Silence! A mongrel that does not know his place is not fit to live.

<< they all regrouped, and Karen took Blaze's hand.>>

We can't expect Sharon to sacrifice herself. I am Morgan's mother....I must...

<< suddenly they are ROCKED by a telekinetic force...the impact of an EXPLOSION causes Karen to gasp as she floored...for a moment she can't hear anything and she is so dizzy...she could just pass out. she lay on her side for what seemed like ages. not moving much at first before coughing from the dust in the air. >>

<< but then, the sound of Sharon's sonic scream and the violent battle between Silver Swan and the monster controlling Nicolas stirs her. she hear's Blaze...>>

...ugh...Blaze.....

<< she raises her hand and waves it...blasting away the rubble that burried Blaze.>>


give...me your...hand...

<< the doctor uses her magick to heal the fire elemental and herself. soon both women are breathing. Alison offers potions to anyone else who needs them as she sees to them.>>

come...let us go to Morgan's aid....

<< the monster sends SHARON flying back at them with such force.>>

LOOK OUT!

<< she disappears with Blaze in tow and REAPPEARS by Mike as the creature snatches Haleigh and then points at him. Delilah goes to Sharon, who already shows signs of being alive. >>

you LEAVE HIM ALONE!

<< as Mike refuses the demon's offer, he is struck down...and Karen's face says it all...the hurt and the pain. first her daughter, then Sharon...now Haleigh and Mike. >>

circle of protection! I call upon your power now,
heed your daughter's call a vortex of wind to clear the air!

<< the spell BLOCKS any further damage to Mike's lungs and reverses the effect, as the man can now breath. Karen looks at the monster...her face enshrouded in shadow...its the FIRST time that SHE has manifested this look. So much is at stake. Her daughter's freedom and well being, her companion, her friends...and She is offended to her CORE>>


You attack my daughter, my friends...and my companion....my DAUGHTER!

You've HURT HER!

Stupid, FOOLISH CREATURE!

<< for those who had been present in the appropriate timeline, they would REMEMBER SHadow Weaver, the alternate version of Karen. that MAINSTREAM would come to adopt this name NOW of all times...was it a foreshadow of her following the same path as her counterpart? at this moment, it meant that she was SUPREMELY PISSED.>>

Shadows swell and darkness reigns
Thy soul is rent asunder!

<< the glowing halos of dark magick swell around the doctor's hands. She then gestures toward the demon as she calls upon an ANCIENT and POWERFULL spell from the Darkhold, the spell activates, summoning the vengefull spirits of mystic beings too abominable to remain on this plain of existence...the spell takes on the form of swirling , violent shadows as they reach out from all sides around the creature and attempt to render him asunder on ALL levels..spiritual, mental, physical...draining him of his life force.>>
