Welcome to Gaia! ::

Lex walked over to the machine and put his hand on a button that is camoed like the rest of the machine. He smiled as it immediately shot on and ready to go. He smiled at the sound of it. "Now we got to tell X." He said sighing.

GG only smiled evily. He was wondering what X was planning to do with this machine. "I wonder if he'll need our assistance any longer after this." He said raising an eyebrow. He was a little nervous at the thought.

Roxanne didn't give the thug time to respond, as four long black spider legs slowly emerged from her cloak again. The shadows on the ground slowly rose into the air and spread around them, like a thick blanket of darkness. There was the sound of metal snapping in half, a few gunshots, a strangled scream, and the sound of something heavy hitting the ground repeatedly. On thug finally emerged from the darkness and tried to run, tripping as he did. A tendril of the black air shot out and wrapped around his leg, dragging him back inside. After a moment all seemed still and quiet, and the darkness slowly sank back into the ground. Roxanne stood virtually unharmed and unshaken, wearing the same grin she had before. The thugs now lay motionless on the ground, their guns snapped in half and scattered around them.

Roxanne glanced down at the unconcious thugs for a moment. There were a few reasons she didn't like to fight unless there was a good reason. One, she never liked to waste her energy on anything pointless. What was in it for her? And two . . . once her adrenalin kicked in, she just couldn't help herself.
She glanced back at the twins with a wicked smile. "Unfortunately I have a thing about fighting in the dark. But don't worry . . ." she said as her shadow began to rise up and curl around her like smoke. "I'll save a few for you to see." she said as the darkens completely engulfed her and began to spread throughout the street. A tendril of it wrapped around the twins and lifted them onto a rooftop so that they would be out of the thick cloud.
The darkness swallowed street after street, curling into buildings with broken doors and any other place that may hold someone for her to play with.

The both grab the cards out of their pockets and yell "X!" at the same time.

The blanket of darkness began to pick up pace as it swept through each street. The area where the cloud had began soon disperced and began to move, reavealing scattered remains of weapons and unconcious thugs. After a moment the cloud stopped and rose in the air in a spiral. It stopped by the corner of a roof and Roxanne lept out and onto it. The darkness followed her onto it and curled around her feet.
She looked down at the gound with a cocky smile, then around at the rest of the city. She cleaned up a few blocks, that should be plenty . . . but she still wanted more. Thugs were barely a workout. Perhaps she could find that man on the glider. Or where those other clowns went. She just needed to get this adrenalin out of her system or she'd be in attack mode all day. She released her darknes upon the city again, this time just looking for a better fight.

The blanket of darkness swept through the streets and disappeared when it found nothing. A bit of it seeped in under the door of a labratory and glided across the floor.
Another part of it finally found the van that the clowns had been in and quickly searched the surrounding area for any sign of them.
