EC vs Guardians - Continued.

((Shine, the lantern is physically attached to HollowEyes tongue, I don't think I said that I was holding it (unless I mentioned that HollowEyes was holding his tongue), since Jho'Lahk's quite a ways above me, and HollowEyes can't fly Also, 3kul is my username, HollowEyes is my character's name - I don't have any characters named 3kul.))

"Oh, it's more out of personal interest rather than anything. It's rare to run across a magic user who's not so drunk on his own power that he can't string a logical sentance together these days..." ((ie: powerplayers )) With a sudden jolt, the Lantern was smacked to one side, scattering ash in Jho'Lahk's general direction. "Wow, they really haven't thought this move through..."

The Lantern suddenly shot towards the hummer, HollowEyes using Whiteoak's tractor beam to help it pick up speed, before it slammed into the bonnet of the car, smashing the front window and showering the interior of the car (as well as the two passengers) with ash. The ash was giving off large amounts of hallucinogenic smoke, although the smoke itself was faint and has an incredibly weak odor despite the large amount present.

Seconds later the hummer ploughed into a corner of the pile of tool sheds, causing the heap of scrap to shake dangerously, although HollowEyes showed no signs of worry at this. He merely sighed, wondering why they thought that clipping a large pile of scrap metal would cause the entire thing to come tumbling down on top of him (or what they had been intending to do if this was not the case). "Looks like they've just made more mess for themselves..." he commented as he jumped up a little bit, hovering, whilst the small mountain of junk began to slide out from beneath him. "Sorry to cut our little fight short Jho'Lahk, but that Lantern is immensly important to me." Tensing his tongue muscles, HollowEyes was quickly pulled after the hummer and the Lantern, which was no doubt having various effects on the two passengers inside. He watched carefully for an opportunity to get it back, as one would no doubt present itself soon.

((The ash and smoke are both forms of attack, so you'll probably want to check my profile on what it does to decide how to react - Sekhmet's most likely going to be the only one who won't really be affected by the ash, although she'll still feel the effects of the smoke if she inhales it. Also, the Lantern's still open, so if you are to look at the orb inside it, you'll see the same things that Jho'Lahk saw.))

Jho'Lhak watches as Holloweyes' tongue is pulled to one side, followed by the crashing of the hummer into the side of the scrap heap. Jho'Lhak begins to think the prediction is true. Deciding that this is now the time to end his decoy, the seemingly 'pointless' Magick Crystal explodes, revealing Jho'Lhak's ture location.

The other Jho'Lhak, a kind of after image with a forcefield placed around it, manipulated by Jho'Lhak. The afterimage of Jho'Lhak disipates as he releases the forcefield. He floats towards Holloweyes, and spins his staff around, as he does so, both ends become charged with raw Magick energy.

"Stop your attack, or I will be forced to defend them!"

The Hummer smashed into a tool shed in the base of the scrap pile, causing a small landslide of "stuff", significantly shortening the pile and diminishing its value as a lookout and as a high ground for attack.

The lantern came back towards Whiteoak faster than expected smashing out the windshield. This surprised and pleased Whiteoak, untill he saw that the lantern was still attached to Holloweyes' tongue. As Holloweyes followed after his tongue Whiteoak used his prosthetic right hand to cast a net through the open windshield aimed at Holloweyes hoping to tangle and ensnare him.

During all this, a fine ash had started to drift down around Hummer and occupants. It had begun to have a corrosive effect on Whiteoak's protective shielding. Each little ash piece, poppong a little hole in the multiple layers of mental energy. It had an almost effervescent effect, like pop-rocks on the tongue, only all around the brain, and it struck Whiteoak as funny. He started to giggle. It tickled.

"You know what this situation needs?" thought Whiteoak to himself, " Is BUBBLES!!!"

And he waved his left hand around, casting hordes of celebratory soap bubbles into the air, or at least that is what he thought he was doing, and that is what he saw as he hallucinated. However, what came out was much more of an unrefined, soapy goo, that sort of coated everything and (most likely) everybody in the immediate vicinity, including lantern and tongue (yeech) and had a significant settleing effect on the ash material still in the air.

Whiteoak was very pleased with himself, alfter all, what the world needs more of at this particular juncture in history, is BUBBLES, LOTS AND LOTS OF BUBBLES, pretty pink and lavendar ones, and yellow ones and blue ones, BUBBLES!!!!!! MORE BUBBLES!!!!!

He kept laughing and spraying goo all over everything and everybody.
