Now it's obvious just how much power the bad guys have.
Even with part of their old guardians back and the powers of the
astral drops the good guys just don't have a chance against the full
power of the Aurameres. Most of them have been defeated and those who
escaped come no were close to the destroyers in power.
So We're All Dead.
Taranee screamed, she screamed louder then she had ever done so in the past. She was in the ground, not quite 6 foot under but clearly buried alive with no way out and currently was being squashed by a large lizard man laying on top of her. At least the ground hadn't caved in on them as well the two of them could still breath for a little while like this. Not for long if Taranee carried on screaming she knew this but the fear of slowly dieing because she couldn't breath, almost made her wish she could be scared to death. "Stop screaming now." Srislis hissed at her causing her to suddenly stop screaming. "But we're going to die." Taranee said back not scream but clearly scare. "If you just be quiet, breath calmly I may be able to claw our way out of here before we run out of air so shut up." Srislis said turning on the spot, it was awkward to do but soon he was facing the ground above them and slowly started clawing at the ground remain as calm as he could.

Irma slowly came to, the force of being blasted into the bank desk had stopped her from fighting for a few minute but she wasn't that bad off anymore, getting up she saw the guy standing over Hawthorne. Acting before she was seen she called up the large stream of water she could and channeled it at the guy. The guy turned and put his hand in front of the water. With crackling black lighting, the guy shot down the stream of water. Irma felt how the electricity surged through her body, it hurt a lot. Falling to the ground she unconsciously convulsed as she tried to stay awake, but just screamed in pain before blacking out again.
Turning to look at Tara and Pao Chai who were also both starting to gather their senses and realized just how much had happened in the few minutes they had been on the floor out of the picture. The guy had already bent over placed a hand on both of them and sent shock wave into them causing them to pass out just like everyone else so far he had used his powers on. Grabbing a foot of each of Tara and Pao Chai and dragging them over to Irma before doing the same with Hawthorne.

With, Taranee Srislis under ground. Irma, Pao Chai, Tara and Hawthorne unconscious inside and Sarah in bird form laying against a building seriously injuries thing looked bad. Will had dragged Cornelia away on seconds earlier and Eric had gone after her with Hay Lin over his shoulder. Angelina and Skyshade continued to try and fight. While Kate used her powers of her ring to hide in the shadows.
Angelina was doing okay. She could deal with the large blast of water she was being hit with and she just avoided anything else Omar or the water magic user used. Skyshade was not doing so well. With Steven on top him, Skyshade could tell that the chilling wind seeming to envelop him as he tried to get free was getting to him. It wouldn't take long until the extreme cold caused by the wind cased him to pass out. He just knew Steven was unaffected by his own power as Skyshade felt himself getting weaker Steven seemed to become stronger.
Kate couldn't stand by and she had no idea why Will had run so quickly moments ago, maybe being without powers meant she felt vulnerable, and realized if the roles had been switched she wouldn't stick around to die, if she could escape and possible help her friends later. Still Kate still had power from the ring of silverglass and wasn't going to do nothing jumping from the shadows Kate ran at the water magic user and sent a blast of darkness towards him. Omar blocked on his behalf with another sudden rock wall before sending that rock flying at her. Kate felt nothing but pain as the rock slammed into her and pinned her to the ground.
Angelina saw and tried to run over to pull the rock off her but from the doorways of the bank the last power user walked out with a blast of black lighting to the top of the spine Angelina collapsed down onto of the rock pinning Kate to the ground. The guy at the bank doors was obviously in charge. "Quickly knock him out and bring them all inside, we will lock them in a radon vault before going after the other ones." The lighting user said walking back inside. It didn't take long for the three men left to over power Skyshade and just as the leader planned each of them help lock them in one of the vaults before Steven went and found and untied Alex.
The destroyers were back at fall strength, and the army of shadows out side the bank hadn't had to move at all to help them, it was quite clear who had the power here. It was defiantly not the good guys. Will, Cornelia, and Eric keep running. Hay Lin was out cold and didn't seemed to be wanting to wake up. Each of them had a reason for running and each one was different.
Cornelia had been scared, and when forced by Will to follow her, her fear told her it was a good idea and that she should go along with it. Will on the other hand knew that if all of them were defeated and captured they would be unable to help. Eric reason of course was not about himself. He was scared true, he knew that if he was captured he couldn't help in anyway, but neither of those were his reason. His reason was Hay Lin the girl he loved who had been unable to protect herself and so of course he saved her.

"Hey are you done yet?" Taranee asked Srislis, none of the destroyers had bother to deal with them. Why would they, who could get out from being buried by rock, but a razor sharp clawed lizard man. "Shh." Srislis said as he continued to claw his way at rock, suddenly stone chipped away and a small beam of light entered the under ground. Frantically at the sigh of light he started clawing like mad making a hole big enough to get through before jumping out. Quickly looking around he saw no one and then turned to pull Taranee out of the hole. "Lets get out of here." Taranee said weakly glad to be in a air rich area again. "Climb on." Srislis said turning so his back face her. Jumping on and wrapping her arms around his neck Taranee held on for dear life as Srislis ran away from the bank as fast as he could.

Farris flicked away the last cigarette he had at the floor and a pile of around another five of the lung cancer in a stick. Since sitting down he had done nothing but smoke and contemplate. He had left space between cigarette of course but not much. In truth he had expect to have been found by friend or foe by now. Yet he had not and the Lasen alcohol was wearing off and the pain in his leg slowly grew and he didn't think he was going to be able to put up with it for much longer. Sighing he wondered how the other were doing, hopefully him nearly dying at the hands of Steven had brought them enough time to get to their goal.
Every now and then he found himself dropping off for a second before suddenly waking again because of the pain in his leg. Why did he not stay at the museum he was safe there and back there he could probably have found some better thing a keeping himself alive above all else. Really if he had looked better there might have been a healing item among the huge number of magical artifact kept there. Thats when he made his choice to get up. No more sitting around, he couldn't get back into the fight really in he beaten up state and decided to start making his way back to the museum. He doubted he would encounter many shadow on the way back. What he hadn't already killed here had most likely move on to other targets.

Will and the other sat down, Eric placing Hay Lin carefully on the floor in front of him before he did. "Is she going to be alright?" Eric asked not sure if magical water was any different from normal water. "She should be she just been knocked about a bit, and probably wants some dry clothes just in case she get cold." Will said trying to be calming to Eric as well as not just dismiss Hay Lin state altogether.
Now that Will had mentioned it he knew what she meant, being stuck in wet clothes was bad for people health. It caused hypothermia, which could kill. He started to worry and looked down at Hay Lin. Taking of his jacket Eric moved so he cut Hay Lin off from Will and Cornelia view, before quickly taking of her top and putting the jacket on her and zipping it up.
It was obvious still what Eric had just done, but neither Will or Cornelia cared, they both knew Eric was looking after Hay Lin health, and seeing as he was her boyfriend neither of them could see any problem with it. Still Eric blushed while he was still looking away from the other. Taking your girlfriend top off with her best friend only a few foot away did feel awkward. "So what do we do now?" Eric asked turning round to face and reaching out and grabbing his shield. "We stay out of trouble and try and find some help, we can't save the other as we our now." Will said putting her shield on Cornelia lap.
"But they might be in trouble if we don't go back for them now." Cornelia complained. "We still need help otherwise we will just be beaten as well." Will said getting up. "Will's right but who can help us Skyshade would be the only way to convince the native we're on their side." Eric said getting up as well and then reaching down to pull Hay Lin over his shoulder again. "I have a idea, Cornelia give me the ring Skyshade gave you." Will said confidently, and Cornelia got up of the ground gave Will the ring and kept the shield in its place.
