The Cat Came Back

by **Harbinger** » Sat Nov 12, 2011 9:30 pm

Harbinger blinked...and then blinked in surprise as she didn't get out of the way of the shot, trying to duck and avoiding the claws, but not the mass of Nailah slamming into her.

by **Atropha** » Sat Nov 12, 2011 9:38 pm

Spontaneously changing plans Nailah tackles her to the ground, quickly pushing herself up and raising her hand to strike again with Harbinger pinned to the ground beneath her, knowing the effect of keeping Harbinger anchored in 'reality' isn't going to last forever.

by **Harbinger** » Sat Nov 12, 2011 9:41 pm

Harbinger's arm shot up, and caught Nailah's wrist, with surprising force.

"Naughty girl," she said, sending a blast of sheer physical energy at Nailah's midsection, whirling to take another shot at Sam on the physical plane.

by **Atropha** » Sat Nov 12, 2011 9:44 pm

Nailah is blasted off of Harbinger and slams into the wall, crumbling into a heap before pushing herself up again.

by **Samantha McManus** » Sat Nov 12, 2011 9:52 pm

"No!" She shrieked, lashing out wildly with her mind at Harbinger.

by **Harbinger** » Sat Nov 12, 2011 10:02 pm

A telepathic birdy is a little too dangerous, don't you think, Polly? We'll have to burn that out of you... the voice came, traveling back down Sam's mental link---as she opened her mind, and let streams and flows of intense, cosmic knowledge and thought roar down the line...

by **Samantha McManus** » Sat Nov 12, 2011 10:14 pm

At first Samantha seemed to weather this, her own mind rather vast. However, she began to clutch at her head as the various parts of her mind tried to make sense of the torrent, leaving her vulnerable.

by **Atropha** » Sat Nov 12, 2011 10:18 pm

And Nailah launched herself at Harbinger again. This time with less of a plan and more desperation.

by **Harbinger** » Sat Nov 12, 2011 10:20 pm

Harbinger stepped slightly to one side, allowing Nailah to crash into Sam.

"Now, what do we saaaaay?" she said, expectantly, dialing back the link to Sam.

by **Atropha** » Sun Nov 13, 2011 7:56 am

"Fuck you." she hisses out, rolling herself off of Sam and sending a defiant blast of magic at Harbinger, though it's barely more than emphasis.

by **Harbinger** » Sun Nov 13, 2011 1:10 pm

"In due time," she said, diving and rolling out of the way of the beam. "Oh, this IS fun..."

by **Samantha McManus** » Sun Nov 13, 2011 4:16 pm

"You... you don't own her..." She grunted, starting to fight past the confusion finally.

by **Atropha** » Sun Nov 13, 2011 5:20 pm

Nailah glares daggers at Harbinger and throws a clawed kick at her before jumping to her feet again.

by **Harbinger** » Sun Nov 13, 2011 5:33 pm

"Maybe I should dig in there and disconnect the free will for a bit--Wouldn't THAT be fun?" she said, partially parrying Nailah's kick as she kept stalking forward.

by **Atropha** » Mon Nov 14, 2011 7:49 am

Nailah's expression is somewhere between impotent rage and desperation as she scrambles up and back a bit when suddenly a kind of serenity settles over her and she looks at Harbinger without fear and a calm, determined smirk.

"Go ahead. Do your worst."

by **Samantha McManus** » Mon Nov 14, 2011 3:18 pm

"Lo- Nailah, no!"

by **Harbinger** » Mon Nov 14, 2011 5:05 pm

"Not going to even put up a fight?" she smirked.

by **Atropha** » Mon Nov 14, 2011 5:15 pm

"What's the point, right?" she says, still wearing that superior smile on her face. Unable to wink at Sam right now her tail flicks back and forth a couple times behind her.

by **Harbinger** » Mon Nov 14, 2011 5:26 pm

"Don't make this TOO easy for me, now..."

by **Atropha** » Mon Nov 14, 2011 5:32 pm

"Why indulge you. Find someone else to play god with."

by **Harbinger** » Mon Nov 14, 2011 6:07 pm

"You can do better than that..." she said, impatiently.

by **Atropha** » Mon Nov 14, 2011 6:20 pm

"Pathetic. What's next, are you going to beg us to entertain you? Some god you are."

by **Harbinger** » Mon Nov 14, 2011 6:23 pm

"I'M not the one that begs," she growled. "THAT'S not how this WORKS."

by **Atropha** » Mon Nov 14, 2011 6:26 pm

"You should try sounding less desperate then."

by **Harbinger** » Mon Nov 14, 2011 6:41 pm

"Moi? Desperate?!" she said, levitating, and (figuratively) shooting daggers from her eyes.

by **Atropha** » Mon Nov 14, 2011 6:46 pm

"Cute."

by **Harbinger** » Fri Nov 18, 2011 4:05 pm

"You know how cruel I can be...WHY MAKE IT WORSE ON YOURSELVES?"

by **Samantha McManus** » Fri Nov 18, 2011 4:09 pm

"Just a spoiled child who doesn't realize she's a plaything herself..."

by **Harbinger** » Fri Nov 18, 2011 4:28 pm

"How DARE you."

by **Atropha** » Fri Nov 18, 2011 4:54 pm

"By realizing you're digging your own grave." Nailah says and faked or not, smug doesn't even begin to describe the look on her face.

by **Harbinger** » Sun Nov 20, 2011 4:25 pm

Harbinger shouted something primal, and incomprehensible...and shot bolts of lightning from her fingers, hitting Nailah and Sam in their respective chests...

by **Atropha** » Sun Nov 20, 2011 4:33 pm

Nailah grits her teeth and with outstretched hands she bends the bolts away from them, the lightning impacting in the floor and walls around her. The air between her hands and electricity shimmers where cosmic power and magical energies collide and sweat runs down her forehead as the first small arcs begin bridging the gap and sparking into her hands and fingers...

by **Altamira Vazquez** » Sun Nov 20, 2011 4:39 pm

And with a *BOOM* of light and sound, and a gust of wind, a green-colored figure shot down the hallway and SLAMMED into the Harbinger from behind, sending the two tumbling past Sam and Nailah.

"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"

by **Samantha McManus** » Sun Nov 20, 2011 4:41 pm

Samantha was dazed, coughing, as she regained her wits.

"Wh-what the...?"

by **Harbinger** » Sun Nov 20, 2011 4:42 pm

Harbinger and Mira rolled on the ground, Harbinger getting to her feet first, and sending a blast of energy that seemed to ripple space itself, shattering glass and warping walls, and sending the Phoenix flying back down the hallway, over the heads of the teachers.

by **Atropha** » Sun Nov 20, 2011 4:45 pm

The moment Altamira blinked into existence and tackled her counterpart the energy that had accumulated between Harbinger and Nailah is released and the Sphinx collapses into a heap. Exhausted but still conscious and grinning weakly. Still she winced when Altamira was send flying over her head.

by **Altamira Vazquez** » Sun Nov 20, 2011 4:47 pm

Mira shot back over their heads, deflecting blasts from Harbinger left and right into the walls, and, with an unearthly snarl, slammed into Harbinger, smashing through the wall out into the air beyond, and STILL they tumbled, blasts of energy lighting up the night sky...

by **Samantha McManus** » Sun Nov 20, 2011 4:48 pm

"You know," she said as she struggled to sit up, "there comes a time when I'm almost not sure I want you to be right."

by **Atropha** » Sun Nov 20, 2011 4:56 pm

Nailah pushes herself up with a cough, half from exhaustion half from the dust in the hallway from the blasted and smashed walls.

"One day. One day I'll fuck something up because I was wrong." she smiles crookedly.

by **Altamira Vazquez** » Sun Nov 20, 2011 4:58 pm

The two lights, purple and red, darted through the skies of London at night, sending shockwaves and ripples audiable for MILES as they came together, crashing through Evil Nailah's crystal pillar, sending it tumbling down to shatter on the streets below.
