(449) Come All Ye Faithful

[Avis]

On her own, unprepared as she'd been, that foul spider that Cunanan summoned, that probe he tried to spear into her mind, would have sunk deep into her psyche, and for all she knew, that might have been all it took for the day to be lost. But she wasn't alone. She had two stalwart companions fighting at her side, and yet, she also had something else, someone else, giving her the strength she needed to fight this threat.

The River Ring blazed again, the latice of thaumium casting out a net of light that caught and shredded the Scelesti's spider glyph before it could reach her, and then it flared again, igniting two more arrows flew, blazing with the wrath of heaven...

[Tuesday]

Unicorn feet still pound the ground. Need to learn Space. she think as she sees just how far Avis and Cunanan were still away from her.

One hand grabs her silver d20, rolling it between her fingers, the other begins to wiggle. A fate-blue glyph forms, precise and whole before the threads weave and wrap into Avis' pattern. The smattering of stained glass butteries flutter merrily before shattering. The press of the Abyss wanting to climb it's way up through her, and into the world. Tuesday grits her teeth and doesn't allow it.

She feels like someone punched her in the kidney.

Like Tuesday, Faye was on the move. She has an idea, but to do it, she needs to be within striking distance, so she will spend her turn moving towards Cunanan. Her mind working out how to make her idea work.

Faye has a speed of 5

Faye will have 10 Turns to figure out how to make her idea work.

  Lasting

One arrow sails by Cunanan, Avis' perception warped by his Shield. In the distance the side of a pile of gravel explodes where it lands. The other finds it's mark and the white fire staggers the Scelesti. He screams in agony.


Tuesday sees the Acomoth to be flickering, fading, it's destiny now in doubt. She sees it right before the deadly crimson glyph spears into her and shreds her mind and pattern.

Tuesday takes 5 Aggravated!

[Avis]

From two perspectives, Avis saw Cunanan cast something just as she fired her first shot.

A moment later, from just one set of eyes, she saw the Glyph appear over Tuesday, saw it shred the tethers that bound the Unicorn together, and felt the rage inside her shift. No longer did it feel like something fighting to tear it's way through her chest. No longer did it feel like she was trying to cage an explosion within soft flesh. For just a moment, there was no difference between that bloodthirsty anger and what made her her. For a moment, every part of her was focused upon sending her second arrow sailing through the air, the blazing comet at the head of the shaft hitting Cunanan right between the glass filled, mangled flesh that used to be his eyes....

An explosion of light ripped his head apart, globules of frying grey matter spraying out from the ruin of his skull, and a piece of his spine tore itself from between his shoulder blades, catapulted by the unearthly force that had just obliterated the Scelesti's head.

[West]

As the remains of Cunanan pitch and roll down the side of the gravel mound, the crimson glyphs he's spiked into Avis and Faye begin to unravel and fade like dying embers. The Acomoth-to-be shudders and slowly fades; with it, it's web of cracks are pulled inward and the patches of Space began slowly sliding and hardening back together.

It's a sight that slowly pulls away and dilates as the temporal rubber band the three are tethered to snaps back until they're all standing on the familiar Cosmati tile of the Circle inner sanctum. Avis, rage-filled and spattered with Cunanan's blood, and Tuesday Mostly Dead(tm).

The FBI still list Andrew Cunanan on their Most Wanted list, but was considered to have evaded authorities and disappeared into a cold case file.

Of Strix, there is nothing to be seen or found.

That's an official wrap, feel free to pow-wow or what-not! Great job

[Tuesday]

Tuesday screams.

It's the kind of scream that in movies would have echoed artistically, lightning would flash, rain would pour and there would be a nice zoom out to really set the scene.

Reality is entirely different from the movies however, and Tuesday's scream is something spit filled and rubs her voice raw, it cracks midway through, the sound dying a painful death, but hazels are still squeezed closed and her mouth hasn't been bitten closed. Her should have been echoing scream was now just a silent one.

Somewhere between the red glyph piecing into her, shredding her, she'd fallen to the ground. Pain like she'd never experienced before continues to wrack her mind. Lost to it, she didn't even notice when the hard ground was replaced by cold tiles.

[Aurora]

The warp back to the Circle and the right time left Faye a little disorientated. Going from Florida and being in a magic battle to end all magic battles to familiar surroundings left her head spinning a little. That and the damage she had taken from the Paradox’s. And holy shit, she had a whole new level of respect for Avis and all she had done. Cause Avis, yeah, totally badass.

But that disorientation ended when she saw Tuesday fall to the ground. Her own pain quickly forgotten as she rushed to the Unicorns side, dropping to her knees and placing her hands on the Enchantress.

“I got you.” She whispered, willing Life to flow into hands and into Tuesday.
