The Black Magi swung hard with his good blade but came up short, falling down on his face. Behind him the guardian stood, light fading from her palm.
---
A guard came up behind Elijah, his gun at the ready. "hands up, turn around."

Spira held the sword point down at his neck. Her hands tensed, and she looked up at the elf, her eyes slightly pleading. She didn't like to kill. Her stance didn't move, though.
--
Elijah rolled his eyes, turning and facing the guard with a sigh. He knew that his face was easily recognizable as the leader of the Machinists, but he didn't much care. His maroon eyes were intimidating, and the set scowl on his face. "Can I help you?" he asked, his hands relaxed at his sides, but ready to move in an instant, whether to grab his swords or to hand-fight.

"Well... that went well, two wounded, one dead..." the guardian sighed, "Damn black magi... What are they doing in west territory?"
---
"Well, well, well. today's my lucky day. Elijah himself captured by my hands. Well mister Machinist, your time is up." the soldier grinned, training his automatic rifle on the rebel leader.

"What should I do with him?" Spira asked, her sword unwavering.
--
Before the guard could blink, he suddenly had a very sharp sword point between his eyes. Elijah didn't appeared to have moved, just as if his arm had suddenly appeared in a different position. "Sorry, but today is not your day for fame," Elijah said, grinning, revealing a pair of pointed fangs.

"Leave him be... He can't do anything now."
---
The soldier swore, "Knew it was too good to be true... Dammit, you're as fast as they say..."

Spira nodded, lowering the weapon but holding it ready to move again in an instant.
--
"Faster," Elijah said, his maroon eyes turning a brighter red. "Now if you'll do me the favor of lowering your weapon and setting it on the ground. Then, you might want to turn and walk the other way."

"headquarters will clean them up... don't worry"
---
"I can't do that." the soldier fired.

Elijah dodged the bullet, amazingly, with his instant speed and sprang forward, slicing across the guard's chest with his sword. He was gone again, then behind him, the blade held across his throat. "You really should stop doing stupid things."

"says the one fighting the great Xurichner! you want stupid? here's stupid!" the sodlier hit the gold ring on his belt and red lights lit up around it, "Let's see you dodge this..." he said evilly as his suicide bomb beeped and exploded.(taking out the entire block indiscriminantly.)

As soon as the smoke cleared, a giant wall of what appeared to be roots stood where the guard and Elijah had stood a moment earlier. Most everything was destroyed, and the walls of the giant barrier of roots was charred and burned very badly, but it was so thick that the inside had barely received any damage. They slowly moved down, back into the ground from which they'd been summoned. He'd had to search really deep really fast to find anything alive in this desolate place, but he had. Elijah stepped out from his cover place, burnt a bit but not badly.
Elijah glanced at the annihilated buildings around him with a sigh. This one would draw attention. Using his instant speed, he was soon gone to find a newer, further place to be.

black helicopters flew overhead, a gray tank rumbled through the street... usual patrols. one of the massive screens hanging from a building displayed the face of Emperor Xurichner before he became a cybernetic abomination. He was chanting about progress and peace. Science and living forever.
all lies told to the mindless public. A man in a white cloak ducked into an alley from a passing patrol, a White Magi, somehow here in the East sector, instead of the South area.

Elijah stopped his speed after about five minutes, a good eight miles off already. He knew where he was, too. He brushed soot from his jacket and stepped down a dank alley, stopping at a doorway. He glanced carefully both ways for guards before flipping up the cover of a keypad and putting in a complicated string of keys. He moved so fast and precisely that it looked like a blur. A large metal door slid open.

the hideout was empty, chairs scattered, tables overturned. not a soul in the room, save one. he stood in the middle of the room, eyes glowing a fierce blue.
"Well met, Elijah of the Mechanists." he said, his voice clearly coming through the cloth bands covering his face under his cowl.

KC and Luna were too busy with the beast to notice Mitchell's transform. When KC finally did notice, she said, "Hey, Beacon! It's about time you showed up! What happened to that guy?"

Elijah tensed, kicking himself mentally for letting down his guard, if only for an instant. "Who are you?" he snapped, red eyes glowing angrily against the blue.
