A labored chuckle rose from Baranar.
"Pray, what happened to the strength mothers are supposed to have for their children? I've Ora safe with me, but I know not how much longer I can keep her there." A dark glow began to seep out from under it.
"I will try and help as much as I can." Baranar said, the glow tightening into a solid around the beam, the large wooden slab creaking with strain.

Erica was about to make a crack about her not being his mother, even though he was short, when he mentioned Ora. She stopped short, and worked at the beam with all of her strength and then some. "Blitz! Help me." She called out as the beam started to slip.

Blitz picked up the speed and dashed to them. he grabbed the beam and was very careful to lift with his legs. (They're strong from all the running around in super speed... and he wouldnt want to pull his back out... that would suck)

Twixt there combined forces, they managed to lift the beam high enough for Baranar to roll out from under it, Ora held to his cheast as spread out on his back, breathing heavily. Ora was unharmed, though wet and a little disheveled.

"Thank you Baranar." Erica picked up Ora and held her close. She looked at the remains of the manor, then back at the shadow covered orb, it was shrinking inside, and she had no desire to know what was once inside it.
"What happened here?"

"I don't pretend to know. I working on reparing my scythe. I had Ora with, for I did not wish her left alone, lest another villian snatch her up." Baranar paused. "Villian aside from our own, that is."
Baranar hoised himself up, using the beam for support. "A moment too late, I sensed something big coming at the HQ. I had just enough time to grab Ora before the wave hit, caving in the walls. I managed to give us a protective bubble, but I was too battered to sustain it long."

Erica kissed the top of Ora's head, listening to Baranar's account closely. "It's like they were waiting for us to leave. We saw an attack from the beach, but couldn't do anything about it. Your scythe?"

"Indeed. My scythe was damaged in a fight with one of their members after you all left. He called himself Abbadon. Me and Xeen were fighting him when he fled. I attempted to give chase on...." Baranar paused, his eyes widening as he leapt for the ground, digging franticaly at the wreckage, heaving smaller slabs of stone to the side.

Baranar "Indeed. My scythe was damaged in a fight with one of their members after you all left. He called himself Abbadon. Me and Xeen were fighting him when he fled. I attempted to give chase on...." Baranar paused, his eyes widening as he leapt for the ground, digging franticaly at the wreckage, heaving smaller slabs of stone to the side. ((Being as I didn't put Xeen back anywhere... He's burried.)) Through Baranar's rummaging, he found Xeen, laying unconcious, and seeming to have a broken arm. He was bruised and beaten badly, obviously from catching the brunt of the blow from the large collumn that broke off when the wave hit, which was a few feet away from him.

Baranar paused only briefly as he saw Xeen.
"Your husband is here, care to him." He called to Erica as he moved, digging elsewhere.
((That made me chuckle....He ain't lookin fer you, mate.))

Erica placed Ora on the ground, joining Baranar in the rubble and pulling Xeen from the wreckage. She made a soft sound in the back of her throat as she looked over Xeen, a mix between a sob, and groan. She still had medic supplies in the bag she had brought with her to the mainland. "I came back, Xeen, as I promised. Now you have to do the same." She whispered as she took out the bandages.

Eulalia_Danae joining Baranar as he undug Xeen from the wreckage. ((Still not looking for or digging up Xeen!)) Baranar let out a sob of his own, though a might more serious, for he knew his case was irevocable. Baranar was huddled over the broken form of a bird, it's neck bent in a crooked fashion, it's wings shattered and wood jutting from it's cheast. Baranar gently pulled the wood out, holding Feather's broken form to him.
