[QUOTE="InVinoVeritas, post: 4671727, member: 41485"] Perrin and Fr. Berman dive into the clock's mechanism to grab hold of debris from the battle. The constantly shifting, ticking surface which serves as a ground proves treacherous, however. Fr. Berman trips on a spinning wheel to fall against a lever, releasing a weight that swings against Perrin, knocking him to the ground! Ru demonstrates his preternatural athletic skills here, too, as he charges across the moving terrain, leaping from cog to cog and avoiding the swinging weights to make his way to the spider-monstrosity. Calahan strains against the searing pain in his bicep as he pulls his arm free of its impalement, grabs a powder bomb, and smashes it square against Ada's face. It explodes, and the face rears back, to stare upside-down at Ru. Ada's younger face, the one you met the first time, reforms just long enough to cry, [FONT=Century Gothic][COLOR=cyan]"You said you'd protect me!"[/COLOR][/FONT] Then the brass sword crashes down into it, through it, and deep into the boiler, where despite all the creaking metal, the searing temperatures... Ru feels meat. He buries the sword in that small, quivering bit of flesh in the center of the boiler. The malevolent contraption spasms, its arms flailing madly. Ru tastes the final draught of hot, scalding blood [COLOR=gray](-7 hp)[/COLOR] and regains composure quickly enough to grab hold of a chain. The clock's mechanism appears to spasm in time with Ada, as all of Pigglemorth's creations twist and spring loose. The clock starts to prepare to chime the hour--nowhere near that time, now. This is when Perrin notes how Edditomas must have lost his head so brutally, in the first place. He watches as a large, heavy cog meshing with where he lies turns round, toward his own neck--and where they would come together, stained with day-old blood. [/QUOTE]
