Family Demon Hunting Road Trips!
Bumping along a dirt road in what, to any sane person, was probably the most outlandish and least safe car ever, Martin looks out the window at all the wheat fields. Now surely somewhere in there was a demon. There had to be! The detector in the car said so! Granted, at the last stop it had lead them to the ghost of some old lady that was very dull, and her dog which had just been noisy, but still...it should work eventually. He needed to tell Marlow how much he liked this car again. Charmed to the brim meant: bonus! He could touch stuff. And hey, that was a rare thing with him.

Anyway, they were better than the Ghostbusters. You had to call those guys. Nobody had called them!

The Great Demon Hunting Road Trip continues!

I think..now would be a good time to run.

Marlow's sword disappeared and she threw a handful of red crystals at the oncoming demon horde. More were magicked into their midst. Slow she might've been when it came to realizing they were in trouble, but she was quick to start offensive spells.

The demons drew back, then flung themselves forward.

Three illusion Marlows took off in different directions.

Martin is about to teleport them both out of town when he finds that he...can't. Something about the town wasn't letting him since the runes had been activated. This was a problem.

He has half a mind to take off some of the limiting spells on his gloves that'd he'd been told were to only be removed in extreme situations. But it was hard to do that with a horde of demons after you. So instead he sits backwards on his magic disc as it zooms in the direction of one of the illusion Marlows and begins not caring much about fully controlling his magic. Wave after wave of magic discs are sent smashing into the demons as he goes, try to get a spare moment to regroup.

I don't think they're going to give us a minute to regroup and unleash a little. And I can't teleport out of town for some reason...

This was a bit of an issue now...

Time to get serious. Marlow's illusions continued to distract and divide the demons' attention.

She stopped in the center and began a fast chant for the spell for the Seven Suns of Cinnibus. She used her energy sword to focus and direct the all consuming brilliance of the energy blast. When in the dark, turn on a light, Martin. Shield yourself really good because we're going to lay waste or at least send up a flare for help.

The spell flowed up her hands to the tip of the blade. The night exploded.

At the warning, one of his discs wraps itself around him to make a bubble with the characteristic seal found on all his discs. Ready. Heads up, I'm going to take off the top limiting spell on these gloves.

He sees his opportunity at Marlow's spell, and places one gloved hand over the other, preparing to unravel the top spell. He'd only been taught how to take this one off, and had sat through a long lecture about how it should only be done in dire circumstances. Well, angry hoard of demons after them certainly counted.

Marlow's spell exploding was the equivalent of a magic shockwave. But if any potential help thought that was an isolated accident, the next large magic flare up shortly after would have erased that idea.

The usual sparks or wisps of blue magic that came from Martin's gloves were now replaced with what seemed like a constant leaking of magic. It wasn't just his hands, which now twitched in an odd manner, his eyes glowed brighter and magic seemed to be escaping from them too.

Time for Round 2 demons!

The smell of ozone in the air after the spell released invigorated Marlow. She loved the full blown release of magic. It made every cell in her body tingle. Even when the top of her head felt like it was blown off with Martin's spell atop hers.

The demons had disappeared. The ones that weren't scorch marks on the ground had retreated back into the shadows. No doubt they were plotting again to do something about their visitors, but for the moment the two sorcerers were alone in the town square.

"WOOHOO!" she shouted into the eerie quiet at Martin hovering overhead. Her energy sword winked out as she began jumping up and down in victory. "That was so awesome and nobody else saw it! Why isn't there ever anybody around to see the really great stuff?!"

"No fair! They left just as I was about to get serious! Come on demons! Round 2! Fight fair!" He shakes a flaming blue fist at the shadows in annoyance.

But he had to agree with Marlow. They had been pretty awesome there. "I know!" He lets his head hang upside down off the edge of his disc to look down at her. "Why don't people videotape this? So we can show them how awesome we were!" Martin stops and realizes something. "And we have no pictures of any of this!"

"WE WOULD IF SOME DEMONS WEREN'T COWARDS AND WOULD COME FIGHT. THEN WE'D HAVE GREAT VIDEO TOO!" He shouts at the retreated demons, demanding they come back. He so rarely released the limiting spell on his gloves, and the overwhelming feeling of his body not only brimming with magic, but literally overflowing with it, had him on an excited and active buzz that just wouldn't go away until he got to let it all out a little.
