Ela continued her forward assault, blinking rapidly as she felt her vision become...different. Different colors and shapes started appearing, almost like those little squiggly lines decided to march information and paint themselves, yet her vision remained just as clear...in fact, she felt almost like she was seeing clearer. Something in her vision was leading to Oxus' shield, displaying what looked like a high voltage insignia; the number displayed by Oxus' sword started to fluctuate, going from 90, to 80, and then shifting quicker than she could decipher. She heard the unfamiliar fairy's voice squeak in her mind once again, telling her to win and follow some marker that would appear...it was then that Ela realized that the fairy hadn't given her directions on what any of the numbers meant at all. For all she knew, Oxus was going to have a health bar above his head now. Before she could ask, the voice faded away, saying: We'll get your fairy, I promise." , leaving her alone once again, well, except for Vetra, but she never talked much anyways.

Without a second to spare, she dodged beneath Oxus' swing and felt the static from the lightning bolt whiz by her head, the static making some of her silver hair fray out and stand on end, before quickly being flattened out once more by the whipping wind. Clenching her right fist and taking a massive step-in, her body now on the other side of his sword arm, she punched as hard as she could with the wind backing her fist up; a straight launched straight at Oxus' chest. If it were to connect, she'd try to push him with the wind, if she could press her speed advantage, she just might be able to disarm him...
"What was that you said, Oxus? About tricks never working twice?"

"Listen to your fairy. Now, if you keep flinging fire around like that, you're likely to set off the-" water began to rain from above, "sprinklers... Look, all you have to do is still her. If you fail here, it becomes two on one and we will fall. Just hold out while I restore your HUD."

The woman looked up and smiled softly to herself. "This aught to make things easier..." She turned her eyes back to Alex and formed something in her hand, from her shadow magic, before lifting her arm and throwing a ninja star at the insolent girl.

Oxus took the hit and rolled with it, using the force of her punch and the wind to aid him in gaining distance from her. He groaned slightly, rubbing the plate where she'd punched. "You're sharper than I thought..." She saw through his ruse? The child was observant, but still inexperienced.

Just then, the sprinklers kicked on, spreading water within the planetarium. Oxus's shield sparked and sizzled as the water made contact with it, evaporating the droplets. Small bolts of lightning jump short distances from it, moving from droplet to droplet. Its magic power wavered, but remained strong. The yellow highlighting in the sword began to fade, the same thing happening to it. The rusted knight takes a defensive stance, with his shield held up in front of him, and his sword behind. "Tch... You're lucky this time, girl." He stepped back, slipping into the shadows behind him. "Fighting you has become too troublesome..."

... He's gone. The magic reading faded. The icon in the upper left is replaced with a red symbol and a black symbol, but in the lower right is a yellow symbol, pointing to the nearby wax sculpture machine. It was the only one running at the time, and there was a faintly glowing spot on it's side. It's seemed Curgau was somehow merged into the machine by that man's magic, but it has faded now.

"I... think I can coax her out." Vetra seemed unsure, but somehow felt her magic could aid the other fairy.

Solya looks up as the sprinklers start, frowning. "Alright, we need to leave. Stay close, now. I'm sure the others will meet us outside. We should be able to move with the noise of the sprinklers masking our steps..."

They're able to get outside without much incident, where their respective teachers are looking for them, worried. Solya waves and motions to the girls. "C'mon, now. Let your teachers know you're alright. Er... telling them that your friend is fighting might only make them worry more, though."

There's an elven woman nearby, asking questions about what's happening. Her Life fairy floats at her side, managing her notes. She's tall, with jaw-length pink hair and light blue eyes. She bears some kind of band on her arm. A well-studied student could identify it as a badge for an elven investigator.

Narciss flew over to Foress and latched on to her hair as she ran over to her teacher. Both of them were wet and annoyed, but Foress was at least able to tell her most of the non weird stuff with out giving too much away. It wasn't difficult to give a kid the benefit of the doubt. It was dark, some students got lost, and then the sprinklers came on. Knowing Foress her teacher was just glad she didn't over exaggerate her situation.

"Thank you for telling me. Stay here for now until we get everyone back outside." Foress nodded and saw her teacher walk over to a few others. Likely talking about what was happening. Foress frowned feeling as if she should do something for now. Looking around for anyone else who may have made it out her eyes fell on an Elven woman. She didn't seem to unusual except for the band on her arm. "Where have I seen that before? Ugh my magificent mind should know this!" she bit her lip feeling as if the answer was on the tip of her tongue. Just when the answer popped into her head she gasped. "An investigator? Narciss your thinking what I'm thinking?"

"Just ignore her. We don't need to get involved even more. W-w-wait a minute!" Narciss yelled or squeaked as Foress moved in a light jog towards the investigator and tapped her shoulder.

"Hello there my name is Foress Woods. I assume you want help figuring out whats going on?"

[b]"What the fuck do you think I have been doing this entire time? She hasn't exactly left here in case you couldn't tell."[/b} Alex snapped quietly, glaring at the sprinklers but only snorted. True those would probably weaken her, but they were also a added distraction for whats her face. It wouldn't be long however until the red head eventually ran out of energy.

The water droplets did evaporated into steam whenever they neared her inferno body, but water would eventually win out as she got more tired. Alex only hoped those idiots finally got out of here, she was unsure just how limited her powers were. Her mind was already getting a bit of a headache from the odd feeling of having her fairy inside her head as well. Glaring at her opponent she merely grinned.
