Hands of Flames (Open to Shadowpact)
Alexia broke into the Gotham Museum. Though broke in does do what she did justice. She blow the front door down and the door frame out with a blast of magic fire. There was one thing that Alexia did not do and that was subtly.

She had found a record of a scroll with some powerful fire spell on it hidden in a Chinese painting that was currently in the possession of the Gotham Museum. She ran to where the exhibit was when she cased the place earlier that day.

As she started the incantation to get the scroll the defenses active something that she hadn’t expected. After a quick battle with some statues that she blew up as fast as she could she finished the incantation and grabbed the scroll and proceeded to run out of there.

As she got to the front doors that were still on fire she saw a police barricade waiting for her.

“Put your hands up your under arrest,” the cops yell out to her.

“Hell no,” Alexia yelled back at them. She really did not deal with authority well. As her temper and annoyance started getting the better of her, her hair and hand started to alight with flames.

With a quick spell she sent blast of fire towards all the police cars at the scene. The police really didn’t know what they had gotten themselves into and the really didn’t have much of a chance against Alexia but with this much magic being flung around someone was bound to notice.

And notice someone did. Victoria had been in her apartment at the time, going over her list of supplies for the upcoming school year. School for teachers started in just two short weeks and though she was largely prepared, her other responsibilities kept some things on the table.

She got up and walked to the location of the disturbance, stopping just behind the police barricade.

"Hellfire and damnation..." she whispered as she watched.

	"They go together like bacon and eggs." Zach adds, arriving almost at the same time. He shakes his head at the carnage. "Fire's always a classic, but some finesse would be appreciated." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Victoria nodded politely. "Mike, Zachary. I believe this should not be beyond our capabilities. If you would see to putting out the fire, Zachary, Mike and I will deal with our miscreant." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Gotham is not Cerdian's idea of fun, but he was here to track a lead on Donna for Lian. As much as he didn't want to admit it, the leads on Lian's baby girl were growing colder and every day they couldn't find her was one more day that Damien had with her.

Whoever put together the spell to hamper his locating of Donna was good, maybe on his father's level.

Right now, he follows his locating spell to Zach, hoping that the magician can aid him with this spell.

He needs to make something happen for Lian before she does something crazy.

	"Yeah you better run," Alexia yells at the fleeting cops as she throws fireballs at them laughing. She wasn't actually throwing the blasts of fire at them she just thought it was funny seeing them run away like that. She hadn't noticed anyone else there. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Fine. Teacher gets to go give the brat a spanking." Zach rolls his eyes and goes to deal with the collateral damage. "Noitacoffus!" He targets a few air-dispelling spells at the blazes, cutting them off from the air. Magically started, but still mundane fire, so it shouldn't be able to persist without oxygen.

	The police parted as Victoria approached and stepped through the barrier. She tended to have that effect upon people. "This has gone on far enough," she growled at Alexia. She brought up a hand and fired a mystical blast of energy. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Figuring that breathing Hellfire would probably not help in this situation Mike channeled dark mystical energies in his hands causing them to glow with dark power before firing a blast towards Alexia. He also super changed his healing ability with his demonic energies. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Cerdian hears the sounds of combat inside the building and heads inside to see what's going on. He dodges a fire blast and sees that several people seem to be attacking one person in question.

It doesn't take him long to figure out who the bad guy is here.

Rather than attacking the fiery woman with magic directly, Cerdian tries a different tactic: he kneels and sketches a small circle upon the floor, chanting in Atlantean while he does.

Instead of /fighting/ her magic, Cerdian is attempting to inhibit it and shut it down completely so that she can't cast against Zach or the others at all.

Alexia was still laughing when the water and energy blasts hit her knocking her hard on her ass, temporarily putting out her flames.

On her back on the ground she threw up two fireballs high up in the air with both her hands. Then fireballs the size of volleyballs started to fall from the sky above the people she saw that attacked her.

There was a puzzled look on her face as she watched the fireballs start to rain down. That was weird she thought to herself those fireballs should be the size of beach balls with the magic she thought she had thrown into her spell. She doesn’t realize that something was interfering with her magic.

	Cerdian continues to keep the rogue mage's power locked down as best he can, though the effort is a strain. "You would be wise to give up now." Cerdian says aloud. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

When Alexia met Victoria’s glare it does not have the intended effect at all. It does not calm her down, scare her, or any of the other reactions she might expect. What it does do is make her pissed and wanted to stick it to the man or women in this case. Yes authority and Alexia does not mix well at all.

Alexia erupts into flames bigger, hotter and stronger than before covering a large area of the ground around her.

“FUCK YOU,” Alexia screams at Victoria before throwing a giant flaming middle finger at her with a quick spell. Alexia has seemingly forgotten about everything else for the time being.

	Victoria actually let out a gasp of surprise. The mystical protections the others had put up held some, but it was enough to knock her down, landing her solidly on her backside. Her expression quickly darkened. "That," she said as she began to rise, "was a mistake." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	partdemon 2011-08-14 09:39 pm UTC (link)
	Mike kind of had to admit he really wished they weren't fighting just so she could teach him that spell. Her being hot also might be involved there but whatever. The extra heat and fire didn't bother him much since they typically didn't effect him to much anyways. Mike started wracking his brain for an idea of what to do next. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Cerdian was at a loss just now. He was a bit tired and this whole situation seemed to get weirder every moment he watched it.

"Poseidon's beard, it's like spending time with Lian...only not." Cerdian says to himself.

However, he's pretty sure that someone is about to get the mystic smackdown laid upon them and he has to see it, if only to be able to tell Alex later.

	Alexia was still burning with rage literally. Her hair and arms were ablaze and the area around her was surrounded with flames four feet high. Her rage was so focused at Victoria that she almost didn't jump out of the way of the falling car. This broke her out of her rage trance and the fires around her started becoming lower.

Zach's head practically spins around at that. He then smiles himself, and shrugs.

"I'm sorry, is that not PC anymore? Should I have found a hybrid?

Now, as for you, miss..." He turns on Alexia.

"Tnemec seohs." The ground beneath her destabilizes enough for her to sink into, and will harden again in moments.

Okay, so maybe it's a little cliched for an Italian, but it's still sound tactics.

	Mike worked on a quick spell in latin to counter act some of the flames that were burning everywhere. Someone was definitely a hot pyro. That pun was even to bad for him to say out loud. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Cerdian focuses on the water he can feel running through the sprinkler system in the building. He calls upon it, drawing to the room where Alexa and the others are.

The sprinklers turn on, but the water begins to swirl and coalesce, trapping the fiery young woman in a circle of water to quench her flames and, consequently, ground out her power so that she doesn't try any nasty surprises.

Alexia could tell she was in a bad situation right now. Her feet stuck in the earth surround by water with her old flames being put out.

But her teacher always said turn adversary into advantage and when in doubt make the biggest bang you could.

She had one spell in her arsenal that could do just that but it would take a lot of power and she wouldn't have much left to make her escape. She was done fighting.

Alexia started chanting in Chinese. The flames she still had left on her body and in her hair turned blue and started to engulf her as she did. When the blue flames touched the water the water started to burn like dry wood that had been soaked in lighter fluid making an even bigger blue flame that than exploded in a massive blue fireball.

	Well, that's a new one. Zach doesn't even have time for a quip as he goes into action. "Etercnoc sllaw!" The ground abruptly cracks and shifts, morphing into protective barriers against the flames. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Mike jumps between Sindella and the blast and does his best to throw up a magic shield. Fire normally doesn't hurt him but he wasn't sure about magical flames but at least he had an incredible healing factor. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	violettidemage 2011-08-24 02:56 am UTC (link)
	The water seemed like a great idea at the time and it probably was, but right now, it was about to be a problem. Once the water became fire, Cerdian had to let go of it and dodge behind cover, but not before the sleeve of his shirt caught fire, which he tried to pat out, then roll upon to keep from spreading.

When the flames receded so that they could see where she was again they would find a message burning on the wall. Sorry. I'll give it back. Thank You.

That spell had taken up most of the rest of her power to cast especially on that kind of level. As she escaped though she could help but wonder if that cute atlantian mage liked Red-headed Pyros with Authority Issues.
