The night was chilled but that wasn't a huge surprise for team Light it was always pretty cold at night, even if it nearly was the middle of the summer... There was no moon only light coming from the nightlight city that shined gold every day and night but their building was black and dark like a Dracle's cold shadow, to the point where if one of the unholy beasts were right in front of the two they most likely die, ironic for a base.
'You just don't understand!' she thought in her head over and over again the pages in the red journal turning showing words Neon has read ten times before… She explained in her own words even in Hunter's words that he wrote down in his journal in the brisk red ink all over more than haft of the pages inside of the small book.
It was Dark Energy, Hunter wrote it and she knew by the description, it was nothing made on earth… Today – 13.7 billion years after the Big Bang – the universe has grown much larger, so the galaxies are not packed so close together. Their gravitational pull on each other is weakened, allowing the dark energy to play a more dominant role. It's the small thing that fills the empty space between small galaxies, but scientists on earth have yet to get the dark matter into their hands to study it… it seems with the Ultra storm and Dark Energy making its way to earth somehow it must have done something to cause everything that's has happened.
There were too many questions to find out how the Dark energy got to earth and why, but that could wait…There was a real reason why the pages of the red journal were flipping so much the red ink being read over again like a doctor office magazine. Bruce was losing himself to the power of the unearthly energy brought to him. Dark energy was a property that must eventually dominate the evolution of the universe it's a vacuum energy a property of space itself... Putting that into a human form along with pixels from the ultra storm would corrupt them to neither a Human nor Ultra!
They would be whatever Hunter made Quentin into; his journal was a cookbook telling how to make the perfect dead mind Dracle that would not rest nor die. Telling Bruce this the only thing he picked up was Quentin would not die no matter how many times he was stabbed and cut, as long as he had Hunter he would not die; this new fact bringing anger to his mind, he turned away Neon unable to explain more.
But out of anything, she didn't even get the chance to say that… Bruce would die, and soon with the dark energy in him uncontrolled, she wasn't sure if she even had the heart to tell him, or if he'd even understand.
Neon needed to be his Hunter and help him in a way so he could still control himself. Independently in its actual nature, dark energy has a strong negative pressure, it was unstable for Bruce; his personality changing along with the way he thought she didn't want to emit it she was scared for him in a way, this was real … A like reality the answer was out of her reach, nothing in the journal about to help, stop or halt the refinement of the dark energy. The only thing she could figure out to work temporarily was the tooth she filled with her energy that Bruce wore around his neck.
But the being of light wasn't going to take that for an answer she knew where she needed to go to get what she wanted! Neon With her hand glowing softly with a light blue glimmered; she looked upon Bruce across the small room with no roof or stars to cover them. The second Dracle was still, with Miracle on his shoulder, she waited a bit longer to made sure to two were sound asleep before she stood up. The Small journal in her hand walking over the edge of the brunt base where the floor was more likely to give out for her to fall Four huge stories down, the view showing the CUI tower in the gold light city. Neon shifted her footing to the edge of the steel beam holding up the floor getting really to wisp off, she was just thinking of a place in the CUI to that wouldn't drain all for her energy to go. She had just the spot!
"Yelp!" There was a sharp yelp from Miracle Behind her the sound loud and sudden! The being of light nearly losing her footing on the steel beam that would have lead to her long fall! Neon turned around to where she saw the tiny dragon last on Bruce's shoulder hoping somehow in the world Bruce would still be sound asleep so she could return before he rose with the answer to help him.
Her Blue Eyes meet with the First glaze of Bruce's gold eyes shining thought the blackness of the ash of their base, it was like mistaking him for Quentin His Bruce form, he had the same chilling eyes that shown with an eerie feeling.
"Bruce… I-I didn't know you where awake" Neon exclaimed for him to hear hiding Hunter's journal in her silhouette off the city lights.
"Neither didn't I…" Bruce said tiredly stretching out from the resting position quiet for one moment as miracle groaned in her yelping tone at Neon "Where were you going?" The second dracle asked looking in her eyes hiding secret after secret the dracle realizing just how little he knew about his lady he was trying to save the city with.
She broke a sweat, "Oh N-nowhere, just star gazing…" Neon lied…
Bruce Didn't even need to look up… there were no stars out here; not one, Just a Light trying to run off again. "Neon." He uttered.
"Yes?" The being of light answered hoping it was something to change the subject like one of his 'Stupid' Questions…
Bruce took in a breath of the summer air through his nose "I Might not understand all the smart things you say about the Shadow Dracles, Quentin, and with the universe vacuum stuff… But I know what I feel and I don't like keeping things to myself, it's overwhelming; I don't know how you do it…"
"Bruce, what are you asking?" Neon questioned the second dracle the words coming from him not making much since standing still on the steel beam.
With a sigh Bruce stood he eyes becoming level with her blue ones both about the same height; He walking over just to were the floor was safe by Neon so the light of the City could Catch his face, the Dracle had and cuts on his face and nose on opposite's of where Neon had gotten her's that was already healed… he was beaten up, Neon felt bad seeing the fight play out from a far & the site and not stepping in to help, he was fighting Quinton on his own after all. "I wasn't asking I was Saying," Bruce corrected trying to keep his claim face, a part of him wanting to scream…
The two face to face and miracle on Bruce's shoulder Neon stood without words as Bruce continued "I-I know I can't explain It using fancy the kind of words you use and what the journal your trying to hind uses but I feel it when you leave…" Bruce took a paused like he was trying to think of the right words to say to the being of light standing in front of him. "It's the feeling we get then the Shadow dracles are around but our eyes can't see them. That feeling is times Ten when you're not around me and I sense the atmosphere changing the way I think and what I see, & every time I'm succumbed to it like a kid…" Bruce held his tooth tied to the gold chin he stole in his fist. "This tooth can hold off that feeling for my body; I know from the fight when it was ripped off, my thoughts seemed corrupted… but I never have to worry about that when you're with me. p-please don't leave my side" Bruce uttered the last bit of words forced out in his normal tone like the dracle was holding something more back…
Neon saw the truthfulness again in his eyes, making her feel Stupid for not seeing it before that the tooth was a mere lock and not a wall away from the Dark energy, again she didn't have a word to share. "I don't want to hide things, it's not my nature… so I respect if you don't want to answer me truthfully, but still, want to ask again; where were you going?"
Neon had her reasoning for everything, like hiding things from others… It ran through her mine, that she's never shared anything with Bruce. That might be for the best with hunter back… but the site of Bruce's face and the look he bared broke her, she trusted the Second dracle even if he was unstable, stupid and mad at times, she could understand that and appreciate it as well. "I was going back to the CUI for more answers." She spoke honestly to the haft Being of Dark energy.
"On your own; In the middle of the night?" Bruce questioned the insane statement… knowing her energy was only powered by the sun and not rest, the night was a risky time to start fights.
"It's the only place with the information we need… the more facts on our side the better chance we have at living another day." Neon defeated with the haft truth, the information was important, but so was a way to stop Bruce's Dracle refinement, just like the dark energy found a way around the tooth to Bruce, It Will within days maybe hours Find a way around Herself to Bruce as long and His dracle refinement goes on!
"I know where you're coming from with that…. But it's too risky now with the dracles… I know an hour where the sun is up and the CUI corp. is still vacant… let's go together then, Neon" Bruce spoke to her, his tone changing with his tired eyes. Neon emitted it was smarter, who knows how many Shadow dracle were just waiting around inside and out the CUI corp. for her.
"It's a plan." Neon nodded stepping off the beam where she stood out from reach from the second dracle back on to the ash covered floors awaiting the sun's arrival as Bruce and miracle when back to their sound sleep world, she felt tired herself now but, eased at the least, for now.
The single CUI should have stayed home this morning, waking up just as the sun came up to go work and surprise his one coworker with green eyes, His caramel eyes looking up and down the halls of the Dark CUI crop waiting for the lights to snap on with the motion sensor halls as he continued down to the paper room. Strangely the last light didn't come on it sitting above a single window that went into the fairly large paperwork room he was heading for, The CUI with slick back hair stopped before he walked into the dark part of the hall…
It all most sounded like footsteps… "Hello?" The single CUI spoke out to the direction of the noise; his heart stepping to a second speed; by himself was tempted to call the head, or at least his friend, if only his old cell phone wasn't broken.
Just as he tried to reach for his back pocket cell, he was shot square on his chest! The Carmel eyed CUI fell to the floor without a scream spilling from his lips, just a shock of stillness he had felt before not even 24 hours ago… His body was paralyzed with the energy running through his muscles and nerves, His eyes were able to shift forward and from a worms eye view; the last light came on reveling The Light freak herself holding the light off till he was down. He couldn't believe she was in his site again for the third time, but his Freak had a friend, it was the Guy with the sword, at Jasper spotted on camera 225! He walked up to the defenseless CUI picking Joel up by his CUI coat; his mouth only able to barely sputter words!
"I-i-it'S You!" He gulped before the Dracle slammed his fist across his face the pain numb but over whelming- the CUI knocked out the dracle holding him by the collar of his coat.
"You didn't need to do that…I had it handled." Neon muttered closing the crack in the window she was able to slip in at in her wisp form with Bruce: the sun fueling her.
"I didn't, but I don't like taking chances on another CUI gun fight either, just because of him," Bruce spoke with a tiny smirk on his mouth, the limp CUI Neon had paralyzed before in Bruce's fist, Neon not taking a second look at his face as Bruce opened and locked the CUI in the single closet the paper room had.
"So, what are looking for?" Bruce asked knowing haft of the answer- information.
Neon took a look at the ceiling lights coming on in the paper room with their motion showing a room she has never stepped foot in once, the room was full of computers. "I Suppose the information we need is all on wire and screen here? This won't help…" The being of Light huffed trying to her best abilities to remember where hunter's lab was.
Bruce walked passed her into the room he worked in his single day of work at the CUI, 'the place doesn't change that much' he thought, "Well your right on one for those things, Neon" Bruce said kindly as she followed him through the office. "But there is a Reason this is called the paper room," he explained, Getting to the other side of the room in the CUI building. An automatic door slid into the wall without a bunch smoothly without a pass code or any type of security check for those entering. "This room is for a back up if anything happen to the computers… so pretty much paper copies of all the computer's flies." Bruce exclaimed to Neon both of them looking in from the door, it was a long Hall with high ceilings and narrow walls filled to the brim with filing cabinets and drawers.
"I can't believe the CUI has something like this…I haven't seen a filing room like this since-" Neon started but stopped herself Bruce walking in through the door into the huge hall of Files,
"Since- what?" Bruce asked looking back at her through the door opening.
"N-nothing let's focus on that information." Neon huffed walking through the door, her skin crawled the doorway wasn't giving the right feeling right to her body, it giving her Goosebumps on her arms…. But the ultra brushed it off like as a wearily placed vent blowing on her.
"Ok" Bruce spoke taking it no further. "Where should we start?" He asked, blind to know what is was exactly that brought them there besides to find information to help them, she looked around like she was searching for something specific. At this moment he could read her face and tone like people on the subway, funny part was he knew more about them then her…
"Anything that will help, like weird receipts- ship-in- ship-outs- weak spots where we can nail the CUI!" Neon shot her answer at him like he was quizzing her… she calmed down looking at the letters on each of the drawers all the files ordered in alphabetical order- two tall ladders on each side of the room… the left side starting with A and the Right side starting with the end- Z. "I'll search Z toN , you take A to M, Ok?"
"Alright," Bruce agreed with a nod, knowing from the files behind him that was still a lot to do in an hour before the CUI came for work.
"Neon?" Bruce called out haft way up the ladder with a few pale yellow flies' folders in his hands.
"Do you find something?" Neon asked at floor level at with the letter T file in her heads.
"Nothing big Just, something weird I found… I'm just starting with the letter D and I just realized that there was nothing under B for My name or anything In C for Crossland. They're no files with my name, I don't think anyone knew my name besides Quentin when he was still normal." Bruce explained with a puzzled face.
"Maybe that's a good thing?" Neon sighed…
"How so," Bruce let out knowing her reply would be a shut down somehow to get back to searching? Right?
"It because of Hunter Wibble…" Neon replied with a tone of anger making Bruce turn his head with wide eyes.
"Who's Hunter?" He asked almost like and impulse to know more… hearing his voice he sounded like a gossiping girl.
"He's someone I used to work with; someone you never want to cross paths with, but I'm sure it going to inevitable now…" Neon spoke low her eyes on the papers and files in her hands, she thought for a moment before looking up. "Bruce?"
"Yeah?" Bruce replied wanting to know more.
"He can take you name and use it to hurt you… I want you to be careful even if it's against you nature, it's what happened to me it's why I like to be nameless now….. so he can't find me." Neon slammed the file drawer it echoing through the hall. "Saying that, I really don't think Quentin is the source of the Dracles he won't or the end of this problem. Being in the CUI yesterday, I saw so many things that didn't make since to me but I know Hunter had something to do with it this he might be another layer to this we can't see..."The air was palpable in the hall "He's the smarts of the other side the only reason I've been confused with Quentin's actions…"
Bruce took the silences to speak taking in a lot of new things "So if I knew your real name you'd be worried that I'll give you away to this mad man?" Bruce asked his tone shifting like before unconventionally.
"I have nothing more he can take beside my life- I was worried about you… you were a CUI still in the system … you wanted my help, but you still had things to fall back onto like a family or someone?" Neon saying this, making Boris cross Bruce's mind. "Hunter could take them in a second from you. I didn't want that to happen, it'd be my fault." Neon trailing off opening the next drawer Bruce on the ladder not wanting to end their heavy conversation for each word she spoke he had another unanswered question but her expression looked like she might just shut down again. "What do I do to if I cross paths with him Neon?" Bruce asked to have her talk again his question self answered with his dracle thoughts that seemed uncontrolled. 'I'll rip his face off!'
"I don't want to you to do anything! Like I said, even if it's against your nature…" Neon Answered sharply. "It'd also be safer if we do cross paths, for not you not to use your name openly Ok?"
Her answer had a bit of a confusing shock- he could understand though she had her own unfinished circle yet to be fulfilled: and on his side, he was getting much worst then getting his face ripped off that was for sure! "So what do I do? What you did and just someone name me?" Bruce his joke sounding too sincere giving her the idea to do so.
"Maybe? At least at to point it'd keep others connected to you safe, plus I could get revenge for that stupid name you gave me." Neon's cold tone rising to a threatening white lie to Bruce to pull away from the heavy air pulling on her shoulders thinking about hunter's past actions and the thought of fighting with him face to face with him again- Never would be too soon.
Unlike what Bruce had wanted the conversion died, agreeing to make a cover name to protect Bruce Crossland and others connected to him, and just like how Bruce named the being of light; Neon, Neon was given the chore of giving Bruce his new name. Even though she wasn't thinking at all of it, the choir was put to the back of her like most things were. Neon was at File drawer O and she wasn't happy, she purposely gave herself Z through N to look through… so she might have the luck to find the file labeled Refinement; if there was a file even like that- she didn't find it. Slamming drawers shut and opening them she cut out all conversion with Bruce so the two of them could read as fast as they could the time not being on there side. The only thing she could find close was another updated list of names of the CUI that have been possessed by Dracles in the past month though only a rare few were not possessed in the CUI - thanking something holy Bruce's name wasn't on this list at all.
Nothing on the cure for Bruce- She began to think she was looking in the wrong room looking for the answer, if she found Hunter's book was in his lab she might more luck there, with the little time they had left she might have just enough time to find the lab. Neon looked across at Bruce; he was on the floor now still reading like her just behind her at the letter J. Neon placed the paper files back into the drawer quietly, she'd only be gone a second or two… he'd be fine.
She scooted away watching Bruce with each step till she was at the door she stepped in front of the automatic door, the being on the other side quite frightening.
"GAHhhhhhhh!" She let out a screech! The door swiftly opened on her to let her out! She found herself Standing face to face with Quentin So much for slipping out unnoticed she thought her scream making Bruce's and miracle's head poked up from reading Neon tripping over her own feet on to her backside. Miracle Yelped with her little lungs in shock! Bruce dropping the yellow files he held in his hands to the floor seeing Quentin's face, he was different like he wasn't even human anymore?!
He wore his white button up shirt; his CUI Coat missing the hole in his neck the Bruce had made was patched with a new dark layer of skin on his neck, under his eyes and on his wrists was black, like his skin was bruised of rotting. Black water tears; just like the Water in Crossworld, coming from the left closed eye that was forced shut. Quentin was a full refinement dracle.
Quentin's right gold shifted down at Neon the being of light trying to get up off the floor; she was frozen by what Hunter had done to the innocent man that was once Bruce's friend! Swiftly like he had done before Bruce swung his arm throwing ten to twelve freshly formed bright and dark gold scales on his arm at the fully refined Quentin! The dracle leader shows no flinch not even needing to crack his knuckles anymore he summons a small shadow dracle to take the deadly hit for him it dyeing, the scales hit the floor.
It was quick but Neon got up away from Quentin who looked like a member of the undead! She was determined not to let Bruce fight Quentin alone this time; knowing they would have to fight before they could get out the door! Neon's hands were lit with blue light; Bruce was adding his scales readying himself to take down any wave Quentin took summon.
"Well, you two like waking up early?" Team Light heard a voice from behind Quentin, the moment he had their attention the fully refined dracle stepped aside reviling a tall blond with black glasses and a smooth white lab coat and red shirt, is Jeans without a tear. Walking in Both Bruce and Neon seeing His Face his dark green eyes staring at the two ultras standing in the paper hall! "My Ultra human detector in the door way when off an hour ago…hmm, I wonder why?"
Neon grinned her teeth being eye level with Hunter's smug face, "A detector!?" She muttered through her teeth, she knew she had felt that feeling before from a detector when she walking through the door!
"Knowing you, probably knew, with your friend here just to wake me up." Hunter mocked Bruce looking back at Neon. "didn't you-" Hunter about to say Neon's name Miracle yelped Neon Shouting For Bruce- "DRACO, Cover your ears!" Neon shouted with tight fists of light.
And so hunter said her name, it smooth and short; two of three syllables at most Bruce not hearing a bitter bit of it… Bruce now respondent to the name Draco… it was one of the first things that popped into Neon's head when she thought of Bruce.
"Draco?" What a weird name?" Hunter replied to the false name… "Almost as weird as Neon… do you not agree Dracle?" Hunter spoke Quentin nodding slowly to his question, the fully refined dracle making Hunter untouchable.
Neon Held their ground as Draco pulled his hands off his ears to heard the dispute between Neon and Hunter, He had to emit his hate for Hunter grew quickly like an ugly weed in your flowering garden.
Hunter huffed from the lack of reaction from Neon whom he's been monitoring the pass mouth through Quentin's eyes. "Ok ultra freaks, we can't have you searching through our documents anymore, so there only one out of this room… and that only out works if you don't mind being locked up in the basement in cage's where you ultra's belong!" the mad scientist scoffed.. "Unless we make a Trade?"
Neon looked down at her metal charm to make sure it was still there! "In your dreams; like I'd hand this over!" She shouted the last piece of her creation: S.E.T around her neck, only gods knows what he'd do with it; it was a literal key to power if you knew how to use it.
"Alright, FINE… we'll have to do this the hard way." Hunter exclaimed the expression of frustration tinting his face. "Dracle- Show 'Draco' our kindness," Hunter demanded pulling a strange gun from his coat and pointing it at Neon who was numb to that from him; he did it so much!
Wasting no time on the command Quentin jumped at his 'brother' all seriousness in his face, which was unlike Draco's old coworker. Quentin lunged at Draco throwing a black tinted fist at the second Dracle! Draco using his forearm covered in scales to shield himself, Quentin's moves where choppy and inhuman, the first and full dracle attacking him, his vision kept turning to Neon, Hunter fiddling with a gun pointing it at her!
The gun was about 12 inches and fit on Hunters' arm with a strap, and unlike a gun, it's shots were nearly silent when it shot the bullets being small balls or energy! But when it hit the wall or drawer the damage was heavy, the kind of heavy that would kill an ultra or any normal human for that matter!
"Hold still so I can give you another whole in your chest Freak!" Hunter sassed, his only pure joy he found was when he was able to hurt Neon, no else could do! Quentin was a choir turning him into a dracle slave, and the others where boring… but when it hurt the one dear soul he hated to most, it thrilled him!
Neon felt a ball of energy whip pass her ear with a pull of air behind it, pulling on her hair as she dodged the fourth bullet Hunter shot at her; she was getting too good at dodging bullets for being a hero! When the bullets stopped in the sixth round the gun needed a few second to cool down, she attacked, kicking Hunter across his face with the heel of her shoe! "Why, you little Bitch!" Hunter growled, not knowing Neon to fight back on her own; the attack giving a small new rush!
Neon Hissed with her hands lit with light, thrusting at the scientist with her fist, Neon pulled back hearing a large Crack from his shoulder! But all he did was smile in the pain; her fear overtaking her watching the mad man smile. At the moment Hunter's gun was loaded again rising his arm as the being of light that was frozen with an of backlash fear.
"Nighty night, light." Hunter cooed blasting her in the stomach! The forces knocking her to the other side of the hall painfully, filling Hunter with euphoria-bliss hearing her shout as she hit the other wall.
"Neon!" Draco called out seeing her fly, with a bang on the other side destroying the wall! Quentin was over him with a dracle as his side; Draco punched the Dracle with his scale covered fist knocking them off long enough for him to get up, the distressed Haft Dracle trying to run over to Neon. If only he was a little faster the shadows at Quentin controlled pulling him back by his collar. Smashing Draco into the drawer on the wall! With his gold eyes coming out Bruce Barked at Quentin as another Shadow dracle tried to gut him! Draco pulled out a drawer from the wall and swung it at Quentin with his dracle straight, throwing it at him!
Hunter watched as Rubble from the wall fell over Neon where she smashed the wall with her back, laying on the floor with her stomach holding something on her hands.
Hunter paused about five feet away from Neon seeing her in one piece on the floor. "Huh, I guess I underestimated your will to live…" He said as he saw her breathing heavy in pain, his smile depleting when he heard her laugh.
"That might be the only thing you ever get right, H-Hunter" She Huffed sitting up in pain, with not a hole in her chest but Hunter's raging energy bullet in her hand- holding it with her light!
"YOU Caught IT! HOW?!" Hunter shouted in disbelief and distraught seeing the bullet that could kill ten men sitting in her hand, nothing on her but a few burns and scrapes from hitting the other wall! While he stood in front of her with a broken shoulder from a punch!
"S-simple! Those are my pixels you have in that Gun of yours; I'm not idiot, and defiantly not someone to kill easily!" She shouted standing up with the energy in the bullet growing the longer she held it…
"Pf! I HAVE MORE WHERE THAT CAME FROM you pest!" Hunter roared pulling up his good arm again aiming Neon's Pixels at her stiffly, and with each shot, Neon was able to move swiftly with the one bit of her energy back in her hand that hunter had stole, once before she was much more powerful then with the energy she had now! "STOP dodging MY SHOTS!" Hunter hollered hitting the wall so many times the gun was Over heated, not to mention the huge hole on the wall behind the being of light,
"Alrighty then." Neon hissed the Bullet sized ball of energy now the size of a head on her hands! "You try dodging for once!" Neon yelled through her grinned teeth throwing the large ball of energy at Hunter!
Draco watched as that part of the paper room hall exploded with a powerful wave of energy blowing off the explosion! Not being able to see either Hunter or Neon in the gust of rubble! Draco Looking up at Quentin whom was choked him by the neck; he struggled, still pretty weak from the fight before! Miracle yelping nonstop icing the shadow dracles around the two fighting!
Draco started to lose more air then he could bare, unable to summon his scale blade like before he looked around for anything to get the fully refined Dracle off of him! Draco's hand fell on his chest feeling the sharp tooth around his neck, he must not have been thinking straight because he ripped it off and STABBED Quentin in the neck with it!
The full dracle let out a glassily scream falling to his side! The positive energy pushing back Quentin's refinement to how he was one fight before! Draco breathed in heavily fresh air reentering the second's dracle's lungs he took one shocked look at Quentin!
Neon saw the fully refined dracle push backward in his refinement as Bruce stabbed him with his tooth, she was in distraught that Bruce was able to stumble upon his our cure himself! She was ready as the dust around her settled to leave with Bruce, having what she wanted but a voice she thought she took care of for the second time called out to her!
"Where do you think you're going?!" Hunter yelled Neon able to see as the dust fell that his gun generated a shield to save his ass from dyeing! Fighting with an ultra it was smart to bring more than a gun, Hunter was the only CUI the understood that!
"Damned Jerk!" Neon hissed cursing his brain's pure intelligence over her own, even with the sun beaming on her from the huge hole she and hunter made in the CUI building she still felt weak from throwing an energy mass that big! Hunter and Neon covered in the dust and rubble of the walls around them
"Ha Ha, NOW, hold still Pest!" Hunter demanded aiming the powerful gun at Neon, the being of light readying herself to jolt out of the way of the shot!
"Miracle GO!" Draco yelled as Miracle bolted over with her wings and flew in the mad man's face causing his musophobia to spike! The aiming of the shot hitting the ceiling of the paper room hall the rubble falling on to him! "Let's get back to the brunt base! "Draco called out to Neon finally being able to run up to her the injuries on the two of them about the same.
Neon nodded silently taking Bruce's wrist into her scuffed numb hand to wisp off with what little energy she had back to their one safe place, maybe to get some lunch?
Hunter rose from the rubble that came down from the part of ceiling from his shot Looking around for his Neon and Draco, but all he saw was Quentin lying on the floor now to far from him. and his gun broken under a piece of concert from the ceiling…
He frowned his sick euphoria-bliss gone again… next time he'd have to be more forward one getting that charm… he let himself get carried away… but how could he not? He chuckled thinking about his sick joy, her scream still in him mind.
Hunter uttered to himself as he stood from the rubble specking of the second dracle's name that neon had at her side for battle. "'Back to the brunt base,' you say Draco?"
"Pf, Not for long."
