Anna didn't hesitate to interupt Nathan's thoughts by reaching up and lightly patting the sides of his face. Something was definately up. Nathan, don't give up yet. We will come up with a plan, you shall see. Anna was unknowingly rubbing her aching back after she signed to Nathan. She looked at the man slumped against the wall with some worry.

((The lazor shall work someday!))
Blaine sighed at his failed attempt.

Nathan thought. He thought very hard. Should he switch his target? Could he get a good hold on Blaine? Anna had the hair; a good fistful would leave her completely at his mercy. Blaine... it would be good enough, he thought. And... was this a decision about who he liked better? Who to hit?
Who to hit?
Himself!
His face grew visibly brighter. He knew what to do. "Oh, dear gosh. I am a genius." He gave out a brief burst of laughter before explaining as best as he could. "Just... go with what I'm gonna do, okay, guys? He'll hopefully have no choice but to let you hit him. Just in case that doesn't work, stay within arm's reach of me, would you, Anna?"

Anna put her hands on her hips and stared Nathan down. What was that supposed to mean? What was he planning? The point of this was to work as a team, not concoct hair-brained schemes.

((It's only cool if it shoops da woop.))
Nathan shook his head. "I know, I know, teamwork, but if I explained, it would frustrate it. Please. Teamwork also involves trust, and so the important thing at this point is to have backup. The situation we'll be in if my plan fails will require immediate reaction, probably very quick reflexes. Any suggestions?"

(I'M A FIAHARIN MAH LAZAH! BAH!!)
Anna narrowed her eyes as she studied Nathan carefully. She pursed her lips and tapped her chin with a lightly tanned finger, thinking as she looked at him. Anna shrugged then signed: Blast a fireball at him, he dodges and runs into my shield, either bounces off or can't get away, Blaine blinds him, all three of us swoop in at once.

Nathan nodded slowly. "Beautiful. Difficult to find flaw. Of course, you'll have to place your shield just right, because he'll be capable of moving in at least four different directions to dodge, so... it should work, though."

Happy, the team made minor chitchat for nearly an hour and a quarter, occasionally adding to their plan. By now, they were nearly out of time.
Crash would arrive in about 20 minutes.

Nathan stretched. He didn't know what good it would do against the martial artist, but at the very least if he was going to have to do something crazy, he could not hurt himself in the process. He considered his plan. Yes, Crash would surely believe he was pessimistic enough to pull off that sort of thing. Aggression might have worked better, but that could be a secondary concept.

((TIMESKIP!))
The doors slid open and Crash entered the room. "Ready to begin?" he asked cheerfully.

A moment before he entered, Nathan's entire expression changed. It became downcast, beaten. Miserable. Although this wasn't precisely how he had seemed before, a breakdown was not unbelievable. With one swift motion he flicked the Fire 1 Mysticker on and generated a fireball, with another he turned it into something of a rod or a knife, and with a third he pushed it against his throat. "Just... let us make the hits?" he grunted miserably, his eyes dead of emotion but alive with intent.

Blaine rushed forward, hoping to catch Crash off-guard, and threw a goo, straight punch. It wasn't a perfect punch, it wasn't amazing strong or fast, it was just a good, solid punch aimed for his chest.

Crash stared in disbelief at Nathan. He paid almost no attention to Blaine, who ran forward and hit Crash in the chest. Crash didn't move - at all - but he smiled.
"One for Blaine," he said, looking again at Nathan as he shoved Blaine away. God damn, he was strong! "Don't always assume it's going to be impossible. It could be that easy."
