Michael is furiously taking down notes on what traveling sounds like, when hears a noise from outside the car and jerks up to see a man fall to a gunshot, and a woman collapse next to him. Michael grabs his gun and steps cautiously out of the car to investigate.
Janet jumps back far enough to solidify, then runs forward, grabs one of the bird-lady's wing and Fades through the wall after the Shadow Guards, letting go in time for a handful of Shana feathers to get stuck in the wall.
The two Fades hit dirt at the same moment. One of them turns around to shoot back at Sky, but his attention is diverted by Janet. He shoots twice, hits twice, and does her exactly no harm at all.
The other one solidifies almost at Michael's feet. He is holding a long knife; he throws it sideways at Michael Bor, not really trying to hurt him, but getting the knife out of his hands so he can turn, drop, and scoop up Christine Tane.
Michael, Sky and Janet are all in a position where they can see, and perhaps prevent, this.
Everyone else (Belle, Kaze, Sonny-Boy, and Richter) burst into the hotel room and see Shara with one wing stuck to the wall, blocking the window.
Oh, and the Model T phaeton stops. All four doors open.
Janet puts a bullet in the Fade's foot and scolds "No man handling women!"

ReplyDeleteSky lets go of his chair, draws his other pistol from his pocket as he falls, lets gravity carry him downward, and then travels on the diagonal to a position ten feet or so above the Fade trying to scoop up Miss Tane, and shoots as he falls, hoping to surprise the creep.
ReplyDeleteBlamblamblamblam he shoots with both guns with both hands as the plummets out of the sky like an angel of gunpowder.
He'll think of something before he hits the ground.
Sonny-boy blows a couple of firing holes in the wall for us in the room so we can help.
ReplyDeleteHe then kneels by a hole, setting the box of donuts down beside Him, and is ready to provide covering fire to those in the street
DeleteMichael decides not to shoot at the fade. Instead he looks for an opening to pull the girl away from the fade, bullets, and falling Sky. After Michael pulls the girl away, he turns his attention to the car that just pulled up.
ReplyDeleteIf there's not an opening to get the girl Michael turns to the car immediately.
(OOC: I'm way too amused by the fact that Sky is falling. XD)
