Re: [SCENE] Republic Pavillion
In reply to The Narrator (msg # 112):
Tyrone noticed the now dead but fully human Tandy was standing over. He noticed her eyes getting wide and filling with tears, and she looked from the body to the glowing dagger she held.
"Tandy! Tandy, don't look at it!" He said, and suddenly felt a clawed hand swipe at his darkness. It withdrew and the wielder of said claw, a lizard-woman in a torn dress and odd furry square hat hissed at him. Other started to swarm, trying to get past him yet unwilling to dive into that cold void. They would eventually get by him, as he did not know if he could consume them all. They had nothing to feed on, and his inner darkness vomited them out of its void due to lack of inner 'light'. Granted they could not hurt him ether, but he was standing between them and Tandy and the group of normal terrorized humans behind her.
"Tandy, listen to me!" He said, expanding his cloak to create a wall of darkness between the living humans and the lizard horde. "You gave that man peace! You had to! There is nothing left of them, I know it! If you don't help me now, all those people behind you are going to end up like him!"
The lizards started crawling up the sides of the walls of the alley to try to get past the cloak. Cloak's darkness portal was limited somewhat to what his body should be. Granted he could take up more space than a normal body via the cape, but even it had its limits. There was just too many of them to keep them all out.
"TANDY, I CAN'T DO THIS BY MYSELF!" He said, surprised to hear it. He had never admitted that before.
It was then he saw a moving stream of light. Moving through the ones sneaking in along the edges of his cloak. At once being purified back into normal human bodies...dead ones anyways. Half a dozen fell to the flying glowing dagger as they where struck, and the rest where forced into the darkness of the cloak-only to be 'spit' out again, near frozen.
"I need you too." Her heard Tandy's voice behind him, a little sniff of tears and sadness still heard in her voice.
Tyrone nodded, gave her a smile-one of his rare ones. Then he gathered her up, and the other humans, and transported them to someplace much safer.
