Kasri Noireau ( I'm a fair dinkum Aussie, mate. Vegimite and all. Actually, don't try Vegimite unless you REALLY like salt, because it's kind of... well, gross. And thanks, I'm just always scared I'll overstep my bounds. Don't mind me, I'm just mental sweatdrop ) The world spun. The woman formerly known as Casper had been dead right, Cordelie had indeed hit her head very hard, and was now having trouble keeping her feet. Falling from a height and then moving a considerable amount of water at speed could do that to you. The woman tottered around a bit almost drunkenly, shook her head and righted herself, eyes looking just a bit bleary. "Eugh... that was stupid of me..." She muttered, trying to clear the fog from her mind. When her vision cleared enough to see what had happened to the psychotic queen, she noted that the blast had at least given someone else an opening to get the little nutjob good. That being done and her anger being somewhat muted for a while, Cordelie began sending smaller streams of water after the fire imps and dousing the spotfires that kept popping up. That, of course, was at about the same time that a mass of formless, shadowy things started spewing out from the ground. Somehow, the tall Swiss woman felt that this night was only going to get longer. Casper/Juliet gulped. "Damn..." She grabbed Cordelie's arm and closed her eyes, sheding a couple tears in the pain of having to concentrate. She was just human enough to have hidden in the AoH, but super enough to pull off being incorporeal if she tried hard enough. "...but making me ghosty is one thing," she whispered, thinking out loud, "and this is something else..." Just as Juliet's grip lost strength, she and Cordelie turned incorporeal. The former Black Ops coordinator fell to the ground, sinking past it a little, and panted, vision black. "If you... water them... you might hit now. But I just have this feeling... ghosts going through you might be worse than facing them on the same level."

Eulalia Danae As Blitz reached the queen of hearts to attack her with the dagger, she glanced at Death. "Do it now! Open the portal! Enough have died." Death's armor moved. If they opened the portal it would take so much power they would no longer have the defense that held off attack. If they didn't open the portal, it seemed they would likely still die. She heard the screams of both her sisters as they were stabbed with their own daggers, and gave a nod. Energy started to grow in the hand of the dirt armor, as she chanted some words which sounded almost reptillian by nature. The scent of burning oil filled the park and with a sudden force, Death plunged her arm directly into the ground. It was followed by an explosion that knocked back everyone in the park. Death's mud armor melded back into the ground, and she fell backwards exhausted. As the portal opened, shades upon shades began flooding out. They were creatures with barely any form, with the texture of a thin piece of white tissue. The portal could not grow big enough to let them all through, as billions waited behind, but they started rushing in, their screaching voices filling the air.
"Well, dang, Cloud, thought I had you this time," Acelr told him with a leering smirk.
He backed away with a wary look. "Not just yet..."
"We can fix that." A twitch of her sword that only he would catch.
"No thanks... How about you play with the ghosts, Acelr? There are a llot of them, bet they would thank you."
Acelr glanced back at the shadowy forms slipping from the portal, then at Death... and grinned. "No, I don't think so." She started running for the Queen of Spades again. "She insulted me! I am to be cremated, not buried!"
Cloud shook his head with a long sigh, watching her climb up the dirt and rock that protected Death.

Burning Disaster Since apparently Blitz was nowhere to be found as Hellions picked up the girl he was just standing next to, It can only be assumed he stabbing at the fiery monster with her dagger. And since apparently Blitz was too busy trying to kill something to stop people from messing with the bodies, the Knave took the opportunity to unscrew the brightly-painted "circus" juggling club and pull out the last of the three detonators. The Knave paused for a long moment, detonator hidden in one hand, and gazed down at Ruby's body. The lily still rested on the Healer's chest where the Knave had lain it, contained with her inside Ora's dark shield. Finally, the Knave lowered the hand with the detonator and held down the button for three seconds. Four. Five. A hiss came from the small device, and the Knave tossed it against the shield, where it exploded harmlessly with a faint smell of acid. "Not really worth it, I guess," the Knave told Ruby's body apologetically. Kneeling, "I mean, you're dead, and 30% still means none of you might wake up. It's just probability, after all, and with your little weakness to drugs and chems... Yeah, I'm sure it would kill you even at 100% chance, so what's the point of messing with you? If anyone, I should have killed Ora again. Do you suppose I'll ever get the chance? I remember, now that she told me--I really did kill her, but it was taken back." The Knave stood again and brushed off the costume. "Don't you give me no Buick. Son, you must take my word--if there's a God up in Heaven, He's got a silver Thunderbird. You can keep your Eldorado, and your foreign car's absurd. Me, I wanna go down in a silver Thunderbird... I guess I should find Anc, if I want to kill someone... but I'm not really in the mood for this." The Knave looked around with a critical and increasingly disgusted eye. What a MESS..! Now where did I leave the kids?The woman in gray walked up to the Knave and handed Baby Jesus over. Raggedy Ann and Raggedy Andy looked up at her in confusion, still thinking the woman in gray was A.C., but the she just smiled and shook her head, gesturing for them to go with the Knave. Still in the Italian accent, she told them, "My time to protect you is over. Farewell, wherever you all end up."
And the female Chrestomanci disappeared from notice again, this time even from the children.

Sahaqiel ((You guys are lucky. I have Halo 3 Sitting 2 feet away from me. But my 360 got the Red Ring O' Death the other day so I have to send it in, and it'll be about 3 weeks before I get it back. I also know nobody else with a 360... V.V)) ((THAT, my friend, is why you get the store warranty. No waiting, they just hand you a new system.))

Erica Erica noticed her daughter getting carried away, and turned from Arch running after Hells. "Hey! What the hell are you doing with my daughter?!" Xeen stood up, somewhat disorientated from the blast, and now the wailing shades pouring into the park. He spotted his wife running after Hells, and with a quick thought, stepped out of thin air at her side, taking her in his arms. "Erica! STOP!"

Tom Myamoto Marcos smiled to himself reloading his pistol. He glaned once moe to where Amanda's body lay...... Ungaurd." Where the hell did he go." Marcos looked back to the fight "So he's engaged himself in combat." Marcos rushed over to where the bodies lay. He looked down at them."Who is this?" He muttred looking at the second body. "Well who ever she is I don't any harm in protecting her body as well." His placed the pistol back in his pocket (Unloading it before doing so). And blades sprouted out fo his arms. A couple ghostlike shades moved over to Marcos. Floating delicately in the air they moved around him with high pitched screams, then dived towards the bodies he was protecting.

And Australia is awesome, I used to hang out with a few Aussies back when I was in junior high and living in Indonesia.)) The fire imps hissed and dissapeared, but the ghost-like shades were beginning to fill the area. Their gaunt faces as haunting as the screams they made. A distance off one of the shades finaly made a first move and dived at a bedraggled party goer dressed as zorro. As Zorro screamed, the shade screamed back, and dived into the mouth of the man. The tissuey substance of the creatures shrunk down, and he was soon swallowed up. Zorro's eyes flashed white for a brief second, before he started laughing insanely.

Laurel Talbot "Alice" ((having been completely ignored by the Queen of Hearts)), turned toward the portal. She muttered a spell, and a (solid) wall of shadow formed, blocking the portal so that no more shades could come through(for now). ((Sorry, I'm trying to keep up with everyone but it's not easy.)) The portal however, was slowly widening, and though the shadow blocked the majority of it, as cracks came through, one shade would slip through, then maybe one more. It was a slow trickle, but still flowing.

Mackie the Knife Eulalia Danae Mackie the Knife The Cheshire Cat moved up behind the stone-encased Queen and started carving away at the stone with buzzing hands. ((Is it stone, or packed earth?)) (It's a combination) The queen glanced down and with one of her long arms swung toward the Cheshire cat to smash him into the ground. ((OK, then he can't use his tertiary power on it)) As the Queen swung at him, he phazed, allowing her arm to pass harmlessly through him. He was, however knocked off his feet by the explosion. When he got back up, he found himself standing over the (apparently) helpless Queen. He grinned, and his hands started buzzing again. Death inched back. Acelr was rushing her, and Mackie was stalking towards her looking rather threatening. Even though she was vulnerable, she still had her powers. A stone golem moved up from the ground, between her and the attackers. Meanwhile her own body began sinking into the protection of the ground, like a mole.

Spritekin Eulalia Danae Spritekin Miran winces slightly feeling her fangs slowly sliding in through his hands, and his blood would trickle down the ivory sabres, on both sides, but Miran simply smirked at her "Mosquitoes must be out, just felt one on my hand." . Not taking his grip off and putting his foot back down and tries to kick another spot. The dagger that he had hoped had not fallen from her gut and that he hoped his foot could reach. He wanted to really lodge that thing in deep. The dagger was pushed in deeper. The queen grunted as blood moved into her mouth, both Miran's and her own. Miran grins at the Queen and takes his foot back, and looks down into the Queen of Club's eyes. "...Like...I...Said....No Pain...No Fear." and with a hard wind up, kicks at the dagger again as hard as he could manage to kick in his position, putting that steel toe against the hilt of the silver blade. "I like pain." Famine said in a choked voice. She fell backward, and dissolved into dust, which blew away in the wind. She did not reform.

((Technically her being taken away is a good thing....but don't get Drake killed. Hells isn't a standard character, and isn't meant for fighting. If the Dragon's reasonable, and talks it out instead of fights, things should be good.)) Erica finally conceded, giving a small nod, and stopped struggling with Xeen. As Aaron was placed on the ground he moved to Erica's side. He recognized her from the base, and being as he trusted most people as easily as his mother, he had no problem with it.
