Jemal's Anniversary Special IC

"Alright!" Juan yelped, before sprinting towards the exit. "Oh right, people first..." He looked at Rob's mace... "I need something like that..." as if the mental image he had of the mace would suddenly come true, Juan felt the weigth of *something* in his hand. Mouth agape, he beholds a mace. In his hand.

Taking a few swings at the demon, Raivon realizes she is out of practice. "Oh hey look I found the silver lining!" She says to herself but loud enough for D to hear. "It's training time!!" She says even louder as she swings again at the demon.

While Juan and Rob corral the few 'normal-seeming' people remaining out the door, Diana dials 911 to receive a strange message "No longer you have service the number is dialed in. Your call again please try and hang up."
Rob finds himself wishing he could draw more attention to the exit, and as he glances back at it, he gapes at the sudden appearance of neon lights and a large "ESCAPE THIS WAY" sign blinking above the doorway. Blinking lights start forming arrows on the floor leading towards the exit, and rob cant help but think that he had imagined it just like that seconds before it happened.

"Its no Show" Jim gasps, looking over at them as Pat joins the group. Jim's gaze instantly draws their attention - swirling within, they can see the entirety of the cosmos - the universe itself spinning rapidly in each of Jim's eyes. Then he blinks, and the image clouds - Literally in fact, his eyes seem now to contain rolling storm clouds. "They need you more..."
He turns, pointing towards D and Lin, who have charged into the room, but then seems to continue spinning dizzily, collapsing. They start, too far away to catch him, yet still he stops before slamming into the ground - held aloft by some invisible force, and when Dianna gasps, he gently drops the last few inches to the floor.

The two "Ravens" charge into the thick of things, Lin smashing a demon on the back with her axe, the weapon clanging ineffectively against its scaly hide.
The beast turns to face her, rearing up to nearly 8 feet tall and roaring at her. It reaches out to grab her, and as its scaly hand touches her, there is a sizzling sound and with a brief flash of light she transforms, red bat-like wings burst from her back just above her corset, and her figure becomes even more voluptuous, seeming more to resemble some succubus than an ordinary human. The beast rears back with a snarl, then brings a clawed hand smashing down at her!
The claw is intercepted by an even larger claw, as a great beast steps out of the fray and smashes the smaller demon.
The beast turns to face her then, and bows. "Orders, my Lady?" It growls in a deep voice.


Meanwhile, D has become separated from her as he too is discovering something new about himself. He see a small group being attacked by a pack of nasty looking wolves, and instinctively reaches out towards them - and the chains on his clothing spring to life, lashing out as if of their own accord to snatch two of the wolves away from the crowd. Still wondering what the hell just happened, he is taken off guard as one of the wolves leaps at him, its jaws biting deep into his arm. The chains again spring to life, ripping the wolf away from him and tossing it to the floor. As he looks down to his bloody arm, he sees the wounds begin to close on their own.

"I think, I think I did that. What is going on!?"

Diana drop the phone back in her bag and attempts to levitate a nearby DVD boxed set. When it floats above the table she breathes in and flings it telekinetically at one of the monsters.

"...WOW..."

"Less floaty, wowwy, more throwy stuffy. No offense." D'Raven stops for a moment stunned. He swears softly, "Holy , we have super powers." Another pause then the swearing is not so soft. " OH ! I regenerate! Devil bless it. Can my luck get any worse?" With a heavy sigh he places one hand on the ground and concentrates on blocking as many attacks as he can.

Raivon looks up at the tall 4 armed demon looking at her. "Ummm.. Orders? Your lady? Yeah okay. I think I can work with that. Umm, maybe go pound some monster thingies and help me save the people?!" She says trying to make the last part sound more like a polite order then a question.
"Okay so other people have powers.." She states to herself as she watches a DVD box set fly into into the face of a monster, "So maybe I do to... Or maybe that's why there is a demon helping me... Oh dear, what is going on here?"
"Also an added note... I HAVE WINGS!!!" She yells the last part out loud as she looks back at Jemal.

Did I do that? Rob thinks, Nah, just a coincidence... but still... Concentrating on a pack of wolves as they close in on one of the others a wall appears between a wolf and it's target just as it lunges, smacking into it. Damn, I did cause that. What the hell is going on?

Fighting down a moment of panic, he calms himself by analyzing what he can, Weirdos come through a hole and released something in here and all hell breaks loose. Obvious good guys and bad engaged in combat. Looks like some of us, maybe all of us have been affected. Looks like some people have gone nuts too.

Rob surveys the melee for a moment, We are out numbered. We can't fight individually or we are going to be overwhelmed. If these things get out into the convention center, hell, into the city... No way the police are going to be prepared for something like this. We have to defend the exits. He looks around realizing there were too many exits to cover, At least we can form some kind of defense, draw the psychotic ones to us. With a plan in mind he calms down.

"Keep moving." He tells the non-combatants and moves to where Diana and Jemal are.

Kneeling down to check Jemal's pulse, remembering from his first aid training that you are not suppose to move unconscious people unless you had to. Looking up at Diana, "What did you tell the police?" Barely waiting for an answer, "We can't fight separately, we are badly out-numbered, they will just surround and kill us one by one. I saw that TK thing you did. You think you can lift something heavier? Perhaps pull the wounded back here or cover people if I can get them to retreat to us."

With that, Rob begins to make a simple fortification around where Jemal had fallen, a low wall to stand behind, feeling a little bit like an idiot he begins to yell, "DEFENDERS OF THE LIGHT!! TO ME!! STAND TOGETHER!!"

D'Raven uses his chains to pull himself next to Rob. "Meh, light is over rated and it's kind of ignorant to think that darkness is always evil. Also," he gestures over to Ravion. "You think her affinity is light? Those blighters meantioned imagination and fear. I motion to coin the term awakened. Seconded?" As he talks his chains continue to dance across the area intercepting attacks. "Come on, come on. Defense, regen... There's gotta be an attack form here somewhere..."

"Try this!" Juan calls out at the chain surrounded man, as he motions to him. A bastard sword falls right into his hands.
Using Dimensional arsenal to create a sword for D'Raven, that's a +3 dmg weapon that adds up the user's STR

"TO ME!" Rob yells again, turning to his constructions, but answers D'Raven with a half smile on his face, "I don't care if they look like a demon or an angel, if they are willing to fight for us, I welcome them. You have to keep messages short and easy to understand in chaos like this and we have knights and monsters fighting each other as well as a host of other things. I am not sure "Socially responsible people to me." is going to have the desired effect."

Rob takes in a deep breath and yells again, "STAND TOGETHER! TO ME!!" With that he produces a banner of seemingly made out of golden cloth.
"Well, I just made us a target. Get ready."
