The Library of Alexandria
Jane lets out a satisfied, self-serving smirk. Finally, more Gods to kill! She throws her head back and laughs "
HAH! That's more like it!" before moving three sets of her arms to continue the fight. [2/20/19] Unfortunately, a sudden muscle strain leaves one set of arms in mild pain, forcing her to throw only two bolts at Horus and one of the new arrivals in Osiris. [15+2 (Accuracy) +2 (Magic) v 14+2 (Awakened Godhood)+2 (Shield Spell)] A lava burst shoots forward, grazing Horus's legs and sending a little more pain. [15+2+2 v 9+2] The next blast does wonders to Osiris, basically cooking his right arm and chest and making his breaths labored.
Continuing their assault on Horus, the pair of Chen and his mark SAXTON HALE continue trying to attack Horus by ripping off his wings. [19 v
20+2] Chen attempts to strike from above, only for a suddenly strong gust of wind to push him into a bookshelf [Damage: 12], busting his forehead open. [7 v 3+2] SAXTON, however, does grab the wings, but his grip is too loose to pull them right off.
Dr. Bright throws his hands up and just goes "
Three gods is to many to deal with, I'm out." in a tone of voice that can only be described as "nah, fuck this shit". While the Gods are occupied, the good Doctor arms his explosives and tosses them [5+2] a little wide, close enough to do
some damage, but also easy to spot and dodge. [4+2 v 4+2 (Godhood)] Nephthys is closest, but she dodges the resulting explosion as it topples a bookshelf and caves in a wall. [9+2 v 7+2] Osiris is next, and his left arm is burned even more as the concussive blast pushes him into the fire, which he gets out of quickly save for more burns on his legs. [12+2 v 7+2+2] Finally, there is Horus, who manages to back up, SAXTON in tow, and jump back as the explosion triggers. Dr. Bright runs out of the library and looks around for a statue to resurrect [Spot: 6] but can't find one amongst civilian panic.
Gasping and sucking in cold breath from the ground, Wendelin Lanfrank tries to stand back up, choking out "
Oh shhhhh...oot," before realizing the
real damage. A hole in her sweater. [Composure: 2-2 (Pain)] Wendelin has just enough strength to stand back up, gasp out "
This... was a gift, from gram gram, and you've ruined it!" and pull out her Ethereal Glock, pointing it right at Osiris' head. [6+3 (Full Mag)+1 (Anti-Healing v No Healing) v 4] The full mag goes off, bypassing his godly defense and smashing it as he is bombarded with bullet after bullet. He shields with his arms, but all that does is fill it with holes. Wendelin smiles as blood begins flowing from her lips, before slipping into shock, and falling unconscious.
Lily is, at first, stunned by both their strength and the strength of the table, and stands up, immediately letting the table fall apart under her power. Still, she charges with her maul towards Horus once again, trying to incapacitate him. [17 v 3+2+2] This time, she does manage a vicious wound to the stomach, pulverizing several ribs while he is distracted by SAXTON and breaking the Shield Spell
and damaging his Godhood Shield.
Horus tries to wrestle SAXTON off of him. [11 v
20] SAXTON, however, immediately takes advantage of his distraction to bite into Horus's neck. [17+2 (Crit) v 11+1] SAXTON manages to sink his teeth in, snapping the Godhood Defense and beginning to drink the blood of an actual god. Osiris, meanwhile,
flees at Wendelin's resolve, and Nephthys follows out to attack Dr. Bright with a simple Fireball. [13 v 17] With all the chaos, though, her aim is thrown off.
