Welcome to Gaia! ::

Esou trembled as the bullets dug their ways out of his skin. Alexz had been unsuccesful in disabling his nerves, unfortunately. He yiped as they made their exit, and flew out the window. His breathing doubled, and his eyes closed. Then his breathing slowed dangerously.

*Kerri...* Krii'Ouse thought. *I... I love... you, Kerri...gan Taylor... I don't... want to... leave you... Don't let us... leave you, Kerrigan...*

Will flinched as he watched Alexz dig the bullets and silver nitrate out of Krii'Ouse's wounds. He'd doubted that she'd be successful in dulling the pain, and he was right. here were simply too many nerves to shut them down individually, and as badly as he was hurt shutting down the entire nervous system could very well kill him. Again, Will winced, the empathatic bond he shared with his blood brother letting him know some small measure of the pain Krii'Ouse was feeling. So much pain... So much blood... So much damage... It was too much.

'He's dying' Will knew it. He could feel it. The treatment was killing Krii'Ouse as surely as the injuries were, only not so agonizingly slowly.

Looking down at one of his hands, Will knew he had to come to a decision. Fast. His powers seemed capable of doing pretty much whatever he willed of them, from emitting blasts of energy and covering him in a protective shield to healing him and granting him the ability of flight. Therotically, he should be able to use them to heal others, just as they automatically healed him. 'But can I do it? These powers... This cursed blessing of mine... They seem good only for Death. Even as I use them, they're slowly killing me. And so many of died tonight alone from their use. Can something wreathed so deeply in destruction and suffering really be used for healing? Can these powers be an instrument of Life as well as Death? Dear god, I don't know what to do.'

The decision was taken out of his hands when he felt Krii'Ouse begin slipping from the mortal coil. Without thought he was by his friend's side, his hands laid upon the wounds as the others stared at him in startlement. Fighting the weakness he still felt, Will called upon his powers once again. As they pooled into his hands, a brief rush of panic went through him. 'It's too soon! I haven't recovered enough! The power will kill me this time for sure! I don't even know if the power can be used for healing! I cant do this! I Can't Do This! I CAN'T DO THIS!'

But almost as soon as the panic started, it faded away again, leaving Will in an almost serene state. 'No, I CAN do this. I can do this because I CHOOSE to BELIEVE that I can. I can do this because there is no other way. I can do this because any price is worth paying if it protects the people I care about. It doesn't matter if I don't survive using the power as long as I can save Sethe, my brother. I CAN DO THIS.'

In an instant his entire body was glowing, the power surrounding him as Will allowed it to gather. Then taking nearly all the power within himself, Will forced it into Krii'Ouse's body, willing the lycan's ravaged body to heal itself. He WOULD make this work.

He watches calmly as she begins to feed, her face becoming less strained with pain as the blood flows from his wrist in increasing amounts. He could let her go at this rate for another 7-8 minutes before he would have to pull back...by that time, they would hopefully be close enough to Haven to take better care of the wounded, and get some plasma for him and Rogue...

Archangel Enterprises went KABOOM. Exposions on several floors took out a majority of the workforce there. The building collapsed in a few fiery blasts.

Buildings beside it were unharmed except for some broken windows, ect. from the falling debris. Several bystanders on the ground were killed from the blast. Everyone on the roof escaped though...by some mystery.

((everyone on the roof, but not neccicarilly else where... who can know at the moment))
The time of the exsplosion was a blurr in Saria's mind. For some reason her memories of the thougths and actions of seemed clearer in her memory although she could not make sence of how she new them resonating in her mind, no matter how vague.
Am I dead? Saria tried to remember the moments just before the explotion and the actions and moments during. She remember a strong sence of urgency, hugely powerful, as well as....
Saria backtracked in her mind.
She remembered being in a room right below the roof near a window, Senceing and partially aware and slightly experienceing the events around the building and above her, through her sences, as well as somehow partially mentally.
She remembered the heat... The heat? Why- what was this heat?
She shook her head and continued to try to reacount what she could in her dark mind filled with shimmering shadows and shifting shapes. For the moment cut off from the outer world.
Haveing never trully physically shaken her head to the outside world she remained still, unaware of the surrounding world around her, partially hidden by the outside world.

Sirens sounded in the distance, or so it seemed to whatever vague consience that registered them but she still did not. Her mind trapped in it's shadowed realm. She had forgotten for the moment what she had even been thinking about, let alone the occurance of the explosion.

Watching Kerri take Krii'Ouse into her care, Will allowed the power to fade. Somehow, it didn't seem so bad that time. Turning, he smiled at the flaming wreckage of Archangel Enterprises in the distance. Mauser was still out there, but they'd bloodied his nose at the very least.

A ring sounded, and Will glanced down to where he'd put the replacement cellphone someone had handed him. Flipping it open, he held it to his ear and spoke. "Jackson."

"Will? It's Gail. I need you to come down to the infirmary. NOW, if you please."

With that she hung up. Staring at the phone in puzlement, Will shrugged, put it away, and made his way into Haven.

He looks over at Gabby, a question formed in his eyes...

"Would you like to try and make it back to the coven or make use of Haven's infirmary. I can do both."

A small white cat was pawing through the wreckage, unseen by the various crews working on the rubble of this place. Slipping into a crack in the rubble, Neko was smelling and searching for another demon.

"Saria!" she called in a heated whisper, not wanting to arouse suspicion of the humans around. "Saria! Are you around here?" Neko squeezed through another crack, trying to find the other demon. Where was she?
