Academy of the Arts: Performance HallSo Dalia had this planned from the near start? Heh, that was amazing.
Smart, cute, and tough! He made a mental note to ask Dylan about her when everything was over. Lucien grinned from ear to ear when the masked phantom dropped his remote and he nearly laughed when Marcus sent the man flying. Things were finally going their way!
Dylan cheered them on and Lucien turned to face his friend.
"'Course we can," he pumped both fists into the air, suddenly looking like a giddy child. "We'll have you thieves know!" He pulled out another card, "we bested a demon." His smug expression turned into a mischievous one as a puff of smoke appeared above everyone's heads.
A tiny blackbird began soaring above the fight, it circled around Jay and let out a crap bomb.
Lucien laughed, "it's time to fight dirty!"
Xan was staggering to her feet when she saw the scene unfold. Uhhh, Jay packed a punch but she wasn't ready to call it a day yet. The girl swayed from side to side for a moment before her eyes flitted to Jay and Angel. EH? Did Lucien summon a bird to poop on the guy to distract him? Well, that was certainly an odd fighting style. The metallurgist steadied herself then watched as the angry bird circled around Jay. It would poop whenever it flew past his head, and if Angel hadn't been on the ground, she would have paused to laugh at the thief's misfortune.
"Wow...thanks Lucien." Xan dashed past Jay, practically hauling Angel up by the collar of his shirt while she did so. The poor guy was getting yanked around quite a lot today, wasn't he? She skidded to a stop when they were out of hitting range. "Sorry about that, I hope you're okay."
Man, that old stinker was really persistent!
Fabian dove behind the cleric in an attempt to use her as a human shield, but Lute wouldn't stop trying to catch him, so he made a run for it. However, before he could get away the pole suddenly expanded between them and he was sent reeling back, coughing and sputtering as he did so.
The boy looked over his shoulder and gave Miffy a worried glance. That angry lady was so CUSSING SCARY.
"Oi, Miffy!" Fabian was hopping around so Lute couldn't catch him. "Let's just go join MP! I'm sure he was everyone bowing before him in the theater or sumthin'" To be honest, he felt cornered and he didn't have any tricks left. "Let's just go!" He stated before mustering up a cheeky grin. He blew a raspberry at Lute then made a mad dash for the performance hall.
He rushed through the doors, but the scenario inside froze him in place.
The masked phantom had actually been knocked into a wall?!? No...no, he didn't know what to do anymore so he dove behind one of the chairs and observed, maybe he could find his bag of tricks then pop up and retaliate! Yeah, that would be the plan for now.
