(( =3 ))
"WHAT!!??" Hotstreak yelled, hearing Little Jack. Oh, that certainly wasn't the right thing to say at that moment, and this fact was proven as flames began leaping from his body, going in every which direction.
Adapting easily as the situation went from (freaking) hilarious to dangerous, Jack quickly stepped in front of his younger self, absorbing some of the flames into the Warlord Sword. "Water, quick! Lot's of it!" he called, hoping someone would answer sooner rather than later.
Etna jumped back, dodging a few of the flames. "Hey, it's your own fault for being such a pig!" she shouted, not helping the situation one bit.
First, Kain simply flinched at the extra heat, and even dropped to one knee. However, upon hearing the idea to douse Hotstreak with water, he flung the young man off of his back, slightly hoping he'd knock himself out on the landing.

Little Jack's eyes widened in horror as he saw the flames being send in his direction. He cried out and cringed quickly hoping the flames wouldn't hit him. As he heard his elder self shouting for water he jumped to his feet, activated his Helli-Bot and flew to the next fountain that fortunatelly was nearby. And even more luckely was that two full buckets were just beside it. He took them and returned as fast as he could.

Unfortunately, Hotstreak was not knocked out when he hit the ground. Instead, he rolled up onto his feet, throwing two fireballs the second he had balance. One towards the two Jacks, and another towards Kain and Etna.
Etna jumped forward, slamming the fireball into the ground with her hammer. "Cool it, you idiot!" she shouted, again only making matters worse.
"Reversing Mirror!" the older Jack shouted, pulling said Shen Gong Wu out just in time. The sender of the attack was caught off guard, momentarily knocked back by his own attack. Knowing he didn't have much time, the albino genius simply let the Mirror drop for now, pulling out a different Wu and grabbing a hold of one of the buckets of water. "Changing Chopsticks!"
Hotstreak barely had time to register he was shrinking before being hit with the water. What must have only been a gallon or two felt like a hundred gallons or two, and he was knocked off his feet, thrown back a little ways. He coughed and sputtered for a moment before, with one final groan, he passed out.
"Well... that could have gone better."

Little Jack had dodged the fire attlack by jumping right behind his elder self searching for protection. There he remained till all seemed to be over. "Woweeee! You! I mean...I..I mean..WE did it!" he finally exclaimed as the danger had passed.

The older Jack blinked, looking almost startled at his younger self's outburst after he'd returned Hotstreak to his normal size. Then he grinned, gathering the Reversing Mirror from off the ground. "Heh, yeah, couldn't have done it without ya!" he agreed. "You brought the water for me, after all!" Of course, he very well could have handled Hotstreak himself, or with a hand from one of the others. They could have probably pitched a full-sized Hotstreak into the fountain itself, for that matter. However, Little Jack didn't need to know that.

"I know that!" Little Jack replied cocky. "That's why I'm you and you're me, remember?" he added as he looked at his fingernails and making a star-like-expression.

Oomizu tried her best not to go and say "Poor Hotstreak" since she knew she'd just get a lot of negative attention after all that had gone on, so she just bit her lip and turned away from Hotstreak.
Ed continued using his alchemy to try and keep buildings that seemed like were most dangerous if they fell apart together by making them as good as knew. She sighed and wiped some of the sweat off his brow and looked over to the rest of the group. "Hey, do you think there are any more people left? If not, then I guess I should stop fixing stuff. It's starting to wear me out a little..."

[dammit! >.< i wish i could've posted this earlier...but im now finally on! lol xd ]
Hitomi, who had no idea what was happening at the moment, suddenly cried out as she fell to her knees. Tears streamed down her face immediately as she screamed once more in pain. Apparently when Hotstreak was sending fire attacks in ever which way, the young girl wasn't able to put up a barrier in time, therefore being subject to getting burned. And so she did, quite badly indeed. The burns were on her slender palms and traveled up her forearms a ways to about her elbows, the position her arms were in when she was shielding her face from the blast, made it this way. She couldn't say anything at the moment, she was so in pain. And it was definitely more than excruciating.
Rosette nodded to Kirara, who was still in her kitten form, happy that she was at least keeping the children happy and content. She then glanced over at Ed and nodded to him. "Well these buildings look pretty stable thanks to you. But I think Lum is at the hospital, continuing to help evacuate the patients and hospital personnel..." She told the younger alchemist. "Come on! We should go help her..." She told him with a slight smile as she began to run in that direction. Luckily, it wasn't too far away.
Lum, who was still helping to evacuate the patients and such from the slowly crumbling building, flew about the halls, helping both the injured and doctors relocate to someplace outside. She groaned as she lifted some machinery with her Oni strength, taking it outside and placing it with some other she had taken out, using her electricity powers to activate them and keep them working, so they wouldn't have a need for a cord in the near future. "Now go, find a place safe." She told those who could walk as she helped people in wheelchairs and who were bedridden as well.

Oomizu forgot about poor Hotstreak when she saw what had become of poor Hitomi. She ran and grabbed a bucket of cool water and carefully poored it over the birn spots to help ease some of the pain before she tossed the bucket to the side and began healing Hitomi at once.
Ed looked to Rosette and smiled slightly, nodding. "Thanks. It's not hard, just tiring, but, hey, if it can help then I'll do ht a can." He heard her say something about a hospital and sighed slightly before rubbing his neck with his automail arm. "Alright, yeah, sure. I guess I can try to keep things from falling on people. Lead the way."

Cute_But_Tough724 "No, I wouldn't punch him. But, I wouldn't really talk to him either. I'm still pretty pissed at the idea that the damn asswhole took advantage of me." Revy said to Oy. She was still clearly mad, but she would get less angry in time. ((BTW:: I won't be on much on Saturday & Sunday... actually I won't be on at all this weekend... But I may appear to post once or twice tomarrow. xD)) (( Aw... )) Oy turned his head as Roland walked up from behind the billybumbler and looked at Revy silently. He had nothing to say and it seemed she didn't either.

Jack looked over, startled at Hitomi's cry. "Damn... See, that's why you can't lose your head like that," he told his younger self. "People who weren't apart of it can get hurt. People you'd never want to hurt can end up injured..."
((Hotstreak sort of threw a tantrum, apparently ended up burning Hitomi. He's unconscious now, though, thanks to the two Jacks.))

Little Jack quirked an eyebrow. "Well, does this surprises you?" he asked his elder self. "This is how evil goes, isn't it?" he said in a coolly way. How often didn't he end up injured? Even when he didn't take part in a fight directly. That was what he had learned till then: if you don't want to end up hurt, it should be you who hurt others.

"True," the elder consented, with a nod. "Keep in mind, though, that someday there will be others you don't want to hurt." He'd bet that his younger self could probably now say that there was someone he didn't want to hurt, but he didn't want to press the issue too much.

Oomizu looked over to little Jack as she finished healing Hitomi. "Oy, butt muncher, watch what you say. It's because of you poor Hitomi got hurt. You really shouldn't be so careless. That just leads to trouble, and this group's got enough issues to begin with without the newer adds."
