"Man... boring as hell." Once again, he didn't need to say any more.

Tadashi sauntered in from the East Gate, humming a jaunty tune.

There was a slight incline in the road. Gamma leaned forward to try and use his mass to shove it forward.

Eustathios lawled at the arena as they sped past.

The arena... that thing was there ever since Rage set foot in Barton those years ago. Hell, he distinctly remembered seeing it on his visits here as a kid. No time for nostalgia, though.
His legs were starting to feel the burn, but he didn't care. He'd keep running.

Off to the fountain. He wouldn't stop until he had reached that light.

NORTH GATE >> ARENA
They took a left... or was it a right?
That light was an ill omen.
Everybody put on your seatbelts.

Now he was getting tired. Entering from the North Gate, Athan was hauling close to four hundred pounds worth of equipment at a sprint. Even for him this was getting excessive.
He panted, pulled, panted, shifted Angel around to a more comfortable position, and kept going.
The Cole Train wasn't making any stops just yet.

Angel groaned as she was shifted. "Gods above, this is insane." Quite literally. They were moving pretty quickly and she was quite uncomfortable. Her head and shoulder was pounding and the shaking was only making it worse.

"Gotta...run...almost..there..make it...crackerjacks."
He wasn't even making coherent sentences anymore as he ran. Sweat was pouring down his forehead, but they were almost there, he could taste it.
And it tasted a lot like really salty popcorn and pennies.
Away team AAT went, towards the Fountain of epic conflict.

Athan had shouted this back at the gate, "AND STOP STUMBLING!"
It took Tweak this long to respond with a, "******** YOU!"
And then he just kind of went off into la-la land on Athan's shoulder.
He was consious...but oh lawd was he not alright.

Trei, Rain, and Brad (currently an earth golem) would simply pop up out of the earth in the middle of the arena, their fight continuing as if nothing had happened.
The problem with golems is that they're not known for having the best reflexes. It took it a while to stop charging, and some time to turn around, leaving Trei a window of opportunity to attack its back.

[Poofeded!]
Attack the golem's back, you say? Capital idea! However, attacking the upper body had apparently proven useless last time, so a direct assault that way probably wouldn't be a good idea...
So, Trei tosses his satchel aside; well, most of it anyway. As he pushes off on the heavy material of the bag, he wraps his hands around his two Tachi's, pulling the cleaving/thrusting swords from their sheathes in a smooth swiping motion. Against a master swordsman, Trei might have problems...
But against this guy, blades were more'n likely an advantage.
So, Trei charges behind the barrelling monster, the blades held much as the fist had been. If nothing else, he's gonna at least try and do some damage.
So, in he shoots behind the slowing behemoth, his blades becoming enveloped by the same wisps that had charged his fist with Concussive energy before. Guess what's getting ready to happen!
That's right, kiddies; the old thrust and burn. Only this time, it's a double lunge, Trei's arms whipping forward as he reaches full speed and comes sliding in at the Golem on his knees; this will, in turn, send the blades towards the back of the Golem's knees, where they will ((Hopefully)) pierce in at least a couple of inches before unleashing concussive blasts from their tips...
Recap:
--->Charge in as you charge forward
--->Sliding thrust in as you slow
--->Should the blades hit, double blasts to the back of the knees...
Even as this happens, though, hell breaks loose in Trei's head once more; the marble that had been acting as his eye had vanished, and blood is oozing from the hastily closed socket.
Shitshitshitshit...not again...
