[color=ed145b]“You trapped us in here?” [/color]Serpentine cried out in shock, stumbling blindly forward until her hands rested against cold, unmoving stone. Gloves scrapping across the rock, she searched for some crevice through which they might squeeze. She knew her actions were pointless, any escape she might discover would’ve been spotted by Talon in a moment. Still she waited until she circumvented their entire enclosure before she surrendered. They were well and truly trapped, at least until Talon’s power faded and the stone crumbled like the walls of Jericho. Resting her weary body against the barrier she sighed, one ear pressed against it as she listened to the events transpiring outside. In a moment her blood ran cold.

	[color=ed145b]“Rouge-Bat’s out there, and Furrita and Usagi are facing him alone.” [/color]Serpentine pounded her fists against the unyielding stone. [color=ed145b]“You – we have to help them somehow. Can’t you bring this wall down any faster?” [/color]At that moment an explosion shook the building to its foundations and purple gas seeped through the slight gap where the rock and roof met. Serpentine coughed sucking in one last lungful of stale air before she became surrounded by the sweet scented gas. She could feel it tickling her face, clogging around her nostrils and dancing off her tightly shut eyelids. One good breath and she’d be out cold. Not knowing what Talon was doing, or if he even remained awake Serpentine pounded thrice upon the wall to little effect.

	[color=f26522][b]“Serpentine, illusions!”[/b]
[/color]

	Furrita’s voice spurred Serpentine into action. Abandoning her efforts to break through the rigid barricade, she grasped the Miraculous of Deception in both hands, focusing on the first thing that popped into her muddled brain. Opening her mouth Serpentine prepared to shout, her mouth filling with the potent vapor.

	[color=ed145b]“Mir-uglgh, [i]Mir-age[/i]…”

[/color]

	In an instant a hundred oversized ferrets sprang into being clutching numerous styles of spray bottles. Everything from Fabreez, to Raid, and even Pinesole and Lavender chemical concoctions were held in their collective paws as they pranced and spun across the room like massive circus dogs. The oddity would have shocked even the most collected individuals, and greatly confused even those who knew how the illusions were created in the first place. Serpentine’s toxin infused brain was to blame for the six-foot tall bottle wielding mustelids, and if she could’ve seen her mistake she would’ve been extremely embarrassed. As it was Serpentine struggled to remain conscious in her prison of blindness, as the gas she inhaled began taking its toll on her body.

	Outside the scurrying furry giants did their duty despite their unprecedented appearance. Snapping and spraying at the Baristriss while concealing Furrita and Usagi behind a wall of vibrant light and sound.
