"Hey!" Leo shouted to Eve. "You aren't gonna get downtown by flying!" Leo said following behind Eve. "My bikes out front, I can get us there in no time flat! Come on!" He punctuated this last statement with a swift kick to the man behind Eve, since a panic had started to break out.
"As much as I love a good bar brawl, I've never done it with a bunch of super powered freaks! So let's get the hell out of here before things really get messy...Wait, don't you have this persons damn NUMBER?!" he nearly shouted at Eve.
Perfect, just perfect, he spun another kick to someones chest, giving a wide berth around him and Eve.

Aaron jumped into action. He couldn't stay and fight like some of the Cavans would no doubt try, but he had gone unnoticed so far, so maybe...
He never even saw Casey.
Star unfurled his wings as he chased after Kiri, willing to offer as much protection as he could manage.
"Kiri! Wait up!"

Karmine saw Kennedy go down, but he saw him ask for it. Great, just great. With a blast of air in front of him he knocked the agents after Kiri down, smirking that they now had rodents on them gnawing on their flesh. Kiri didn't know what kind of power she had, yikes. He made his way to Kennedy to hear the conversation there. Hey wait, that girl knew Rae? And they needed to call her? That was it!
Still gripping his blade in his right hand he reached into his pocket and pulled out a small contraption. He then threw the object that he could never decipher, called a 'cell phone' towards Eve.
"Hey! Catch!" he shouted. He considered it poetic justice that Rae had insisted he carry it on him now. He still had no idea how to use the damn thing, but hopefully she could figure it out.
Rae's help would really be appreciated. Karmine though as he stood around Kennedy, looking at the agents around him.
"Well boys it's like this. You make me fight, I don't hold back. You want all your limbs just walk away, you want you life, leave. You came in range o me, and it's your fault." He said with a grin.
He didn't like killing, but he loved a good fight. Reminded him of the old days.

)ooc. was posting as you posted I assume...) She stopped and turned with a frown. The guy did have a point after all. Lifting her feet in a small dance rats scrambled around her. This was a freaking circus! These people announicng such drastic news in front of hundreds in one somewhat closed in spot was a good idea? It would've been better to send them all letters or something.
"I don't have a phone!" If she needed to contact Rae she often borrowed people's phones or just went to her club. This was insane! Just standing there not knowing what to do she waited until Leo got up next to her to see if her had a phone to call Rae on. That way she wouldn't have to leave the fun.
"Hey! Catch!" She turned hand going up to have a phone slapped into her hand. Grinning she waved her thanks and started dialing a memorized number.
"Pick up you psycho, sex craved lunatic!" Eve yelled into the phone careful not to break the delicate contraption.

They would have to fight smart. Working together, like a unit. Nia was almost impressed by the way they handled things. Cavan had known exactly what to do when the Gift got within range; Karmine knew exactly how to hold off a crowd; someone had run off to help the little girl, and there was no way Blythe could beat anyone over the age of ten. The crowd was getting restless.
Time to move a few knights onto the board.
"Agent Wingblade!" yelled Nia, scanning the crowd. That d**m man had better be close. This is why they kept his dangerous a** around, after all. "Detain Mister de Arcadia."
There, that should be an uneven fight. Now, they just had to deal with the dark haired girl. Who could she possibly call anyway?
The Agents formed a circle around Karmine, hoping to hold him there until the powerful dragon got into play. Scythe could more then handle anything a faerie could throw at him. Of course, this meant they had to deal with all the rats and mice, who were quite a bit more dangerous then they'd wagered. At least one Agent had taken to popping them off with his sidearm, and when they swarmed, another Agent started in as well.
You know, if Scythe had bothered to actually attend this silly little function. He did often ignore orders, after all.
"You should just surrender peacefully," declared Nia. "There's less chance of your getting hurt that way."
She shrugged. Honestly, she didn't care that much who got hurt, even if it was her own.
"The Academy does not look kindly upon this type of behavior."

Kiri was flying as fast as she could which from spending time with Karmine meant she had some speed on her now. When she heard her named called out by a friendly voice she glanced over her shoulder.
"Star! Hurry I have to get to the Labrynth as fast as possible! We'll be safe there." No way would the Fae court allow these agents to snag them there. She'd be safe with her people. Now all she had to do was find Mr. Kar's sister. Hopefully she was important enough to be found quickly.
"Thank you for coming with me. I'm really scared." Kiri said as soon as he got close enough.

Karmine looked around. Ok, this was officially bad. Out numbered, out gunned, and certainly not going to get out without a scratch. He was good, but he wasn't that good.
"Well, let me tell you this. There is only one uptight dominatrix Fae bitch I answer to, and you ain't her." Karmine said with a grin, looking to her agents. "But I wonder which one of your Rent-a-Cops wants to go first?" He looked to one of them, locking gazes. "You married? Got a girlfriend? Ever killed anyone? Well I have, and I'm not afraid to. So yeah, you've got numbers. But the first five of you that charge me are going to die, no questions asked. So who wants to lead that charge?"
He twirled the sword about his fingers and glanced at his surroundings. Maybe the bluff would work, maybe not. He'd soon find out. They weren't getting to Kennedy without going through him.
And they weren't getting through him alive. In all likely hood he wasn't either.
"Well come on then, don't keep me waiting." He said glancing around.

Eve was on the phone.
Figures. Crazy biker or not, women were still women. He looked at the red haired man who had passed her the phone, apparently they were on the same side? He was so confused.
"Say Eve? You know the first rule of a bar fight?" He said to her from her side, and then grabbed a small chair against the wall and cracked it into an Agent's skull. The Agent was surprised and dropped to the ground, groaning. He wasn't out, but he was as good as it for the immediate future.
"Always help the underdog." He finished. "Makes things more fun."
Ah but now Leo had a few agents of his own to deal with. Where the hell were they all coming from? He stood in front of Eve, who was still waiting on her phone.
"Didn't mam teach you not to talk when she's on the phone?" He asked mockingly.

The war dragon stirred and opened his eyes. He had been pleasantly asleep in a nice corner of the room. Screams, people running into each other, and the sounds of fighting hadn't woken him up. His name being yelled like some tyrant bossing him around woke him up. Dictator, authoritarian, fuhrer. His eyes slid to the chaos then slid to his boss. Half of him wanted to give her the finger and just let her drown.
Pushing off the wall he started forward. The massive man waded through the crowd like it was water instead of living, panicking people. Citizens, mortals, beings. His eyes flicked to the dark hair girl who was just hanging up the phone with a triumphant smile. Dragon. War. He grinned nodded and kept going. His prey was farther on.
He stopped once he reached the wall of 'fellow agents' and grinned. Peons. Underlings, drudges, slaves.The three closest to him went flying into the air. "Mine."
The war dragon smiled at Karmine stepping out of the chaos and into the small ring. He looked at his chain holder and glared his eyes slipping into a deep crimson. People were going to start feeling some pain. Agony, affliction, misery.

Star started to think about actions and consequences... but the panic in Kiri's voice blew all that out of the water. Anyway, as soon as they were in the air, there was no turning back.
"We have nothing to be scared about! It'll be a while before they can hustle up a flier." Maybe Star was being a little over confident, but if it comforted Kiri...
"What are we doing once we're in the L?"

"You know, I can tell right now I'm going to regret this," said Cylo as one of the Agents surrounding Karmine dropped, drained of all his energy. "And my mom will probably kill me when she finds out..." Another Agent dropped, and Cylo removed his hand from the woman's arm, pulling it back through the hole he'd cut in her outfit with a butterfly knife. "But honestly, I just don't care."
A hole in the circle thus made, he rushed to Karmine's side in a blur.
"Hey Karmine!" he nearly yelled, an excited smile on his face. After all the energy he'd just drained, he felt like his blood was pure adrenaline, and he was itching for a fight. The odds seemed a little more even now, too, which was nice, because he had a certain respect for the former Tutor, and didn't quite want to see him killed, especially over this.
"Kirien should really be here, but I suppose we could take them on our own. There's only..." he started to count, but quickly gave up. "A lot of them."
And then Scythe showed up.
"Okay, and a dragon too. That's cool."
For once, he didn't quite sound confident.

Oh this guy. Lovely. Karmine looked at the tower before him, he knew this guy, a dragon. And he'd ripped those earlier dragons a new one.
"Pleasure to meet you." Karmine said with a nod. "I'd say I don't want to kill you, but frankly I don't think I could if I tried. So what's say we go somewhere else for this eh?"
The idea of a sociopath dragon tooling around in here was not something he wanted to see, but he couldn't protect Kennedy and keep the room safe from this. Nia, very clearly, didn't care who got hurt.
"Hey you!" He shouted to Cylo. "Protect Kennedy! I'll deal with scales for brains here!" He announced and spread his wings taking to the sky. "Well come on big boy, unless you want to let me escape cause you can't keep up!"
With a shot of wind Karmine broke a glass window and flew outside, a much better place to fight a dragon.
Especially because of one very helpful ability Fae had when fighting big opponents.

Unfortunately for Mr. Staar and Miss Honeywater, there had, in fact, been an Agent dispatched to follow them.
He even flew.
Poorly, with huge wings that didn't look like they belonged on his body. But Casey Blythe most certainly flew after his targets. He also hit walls, crashed, and generally barreled through most everything. Finally though, he was within spitting distance of the two faeries.
"Halt!" he shouted, waving his hands. Thinking fast, he melted his form into that of the fiery haired Karmine de Arcadia, hoping that it worked. At least it should delay them, putting them within his reach. "I need to talk to you!"
Gah, he hated lieing to kids.

I am not a hero.
I am, in fact, the opposite of a hero.
I am a coward.
However, even a coward can have his moments, right? Do something worthwhile? Things have gotten tense, but...
Nate clung to the side of the wall, watching the melee unfold before him. His eye took in everything, and soon these deeds would be plastered all over the Internet. His blog would ring with the details of the day.
But could the coward actually help?
All he had to do was edge close enough to touch a target. Then he could port out. Kennedy looked to be in most need of it, but, well, Nate didn't like Kennedy. And Kennedy was also surrounded by a plethora of guards.
I need an opening... any opening.

The war dragon had no qualms with fighting elsewhere. As long as he got to fight. Honestly he'd rather not fight, that would piss his boss off more. Anger, enrage, infuriate. His face blank he just waved his hand as if to say: 'Lead the way.' Which the fae promptly did.
He eyed the red head child and continued on. Let Nia handle the chaos he was going to go dance with a real fighter. Combatant, warrior, opponent. The dragon followed at a leisurely pace seeing no need to tire himself out. All he was ordered to do was 'detain' the man. Taking him out of the fight was basically the same thing.
