Re: Chapter 03: A Small Team for a Big Job
Alexis does a girly single-shoulder-shrug, reaching up to play with her hair a little and says, "Thanks, Gale.. this coming from miss magic-hair. Everyone knows yours is the most hypnotizing."
The orb answers Gale. "The counter-ritual would require the use of all the energy siphons that were used; You repeat the process, but in reverse, with Emerald at the center of it."
Eli was under the impression the arcane ppl were doing arcane things and, while he does know from such, he and Jake were supposed to work on the tech angle. So Eli heads with Jake to the site of the bad guy base that had the tech energy siphon to begin reverse-engineering.
Upon seeing the machine, it is beautiful in its complexity, mixture of different technologies, and flow of design. It is also, of course, the size of a large room. Eli is staring at one of the panels and says, "Gosh, Jake... how long was this energy siphon in the making? Or are we dealing with a genius on a magnitude we haven't dealt with yet?"
Angel switches to fire. "OK. Fire on ghosts. Flip guns around at your leisure to reload for fun." She thinks about it, shapeshifts into bunny mode and says, "I'm feeling gunbunny." before going into the mission.
Many extremely fun gunfights later, the trio soon have the guy in charge of this latest Circle of Thorns scheme. When questioned, he spouts things in an ancient language.
