<Hey look! A distraction!> I said, hoping it would work.

I paced the floor, and bared my fangs at the Hork-Bajir. He held up his Dracon Beam, and fired at me. I dodged, but it burnt some of my fur off. I growled in response, and attacked, claws out and fangs ready to attack.

(Here's my moment of comic relief: this can be a person, a cave-in, a Hork-Bajir [provided that he doesn't KILL me]. Whatever. Montana can do this, if he likes.)

I crouched, preparing to leap. One perfectly timed, perfectly executed strike, and-

I leapt.

Then, something struck the back of my head, and everything went black.

REMEMBER
The universe is, instant by instant, re-created anew. There is, in truth, no Past, only a memory of the Past. Blink your eyes, and the world you see next did not exist when you closed them. The only appropriate state of the mind is surprise. The only appropriate state of the heart is joy. The sky you see now, you have never seen before. The perfect moment is now. Be glad of it.

Montana:

Montana was looking over at the cougar when he saw it jump and get hit on the head by Taxxon trying to get down to be with the other Hork-Bajir controllers. "Taxxons, I thought they had all died!" He said, maybe a little to loudly.

REMEMBER. WE WILL MEET HERE AGAIN, AFTER. IF YOU LIVE, WE WILL MEET HERE AGAIN. REMEMBER.
Oh, Hell! You again? WHO ARE YOU?!
REMEMBER.

"...all died!"

"YWOORRWW!!!" The cougar did NOT like being knocked cold, and neither did I.
<Sheesh! This is like a bad play of Hamlet! All this 'remember' business. You'd think that it was Old King Hamlet's ghost, or something! What did I miss?>

Before they could answer, a Taxxon barrelled into my side. I flipped and gashed my claws up at it, and it popped like a zip-lock bag full of snot-green Jell-O. Gross.

<Leah! Edward! Are you okay?!>

I saw the gigantic centipede fall from a hole in the ceiling. It fell from the celing, knocking Ais to the ground beside it. She didn't stand up. She was unconscious. <No! Damn it, that's it!> I shouted, not caring if my thought-speak was public or not.

"Taxxons, I thought they had all died!" I heard someone shout. Ais suddenly leaped up from the floor and dug her claws into the "Taxxon's" side. The Taxxon exploded, green blood and guts spilling everywhere.

I lunged forward and tackled the nearest Hork-Bajir to the ground. It had been too distracted to notice. Before it could stand again, I clamped my jaws over it's neck and pulled back, muscle and tendon entangled in my teeth. Blood instantly flooded my mouth. The Hork-Bajir let out a loud shriek of shock and pain.

Tseeew! The Hork-Bajir behind me fired. I jerked insinctively, feeling the heat of the beam singe the fur on my back. There was a mild, stinging pain--but I hadn't been badly injured. I spun around to see eight more Hork-Bajir.

<We're outnumbered. We need to get smart about this. Leah, you have the best shot at all of them. Edward, use the wolf's brain. Find the ones that separate from the others, and pick them off from their blind-spots. I'll act as rear-guard for Leah, so that they only come at her in ones and twos. If you get hurt, take a side tunnel, demorph, and re-morph. Do not, repeat, do NOT stay in this fight if you can't stay on your feet! Injuries will make you a liability, and the others can get hurt protecting you. Are we agreed, or does anyone have a better idea?>

Montana

The polar bear lunged at the nearest Hork-Bajir toppling it over. Tseeew, more dracon fire.

"Well I guess it's time to get in!" he said to himself as he ran over to the nearest Hork-Bajir and sliced at it's head taking it off in two clean swipes. He then ran over to the 4 that had just run up and sliced the hands holding the dracon beams. Thankfully Hork-Bajir ar clumsy with them.

Suddenly, some weird dude...like a hybrid of a man and a Hork-Bajir...ran up and started taking the big lizards apart!

<Whoa! Dude, who are you? Are you with us? 'Cause we can REALLY use the help, if you catch my drift.>

There it was again, the voice in his head. "Voice who ever you are," He called out, "Just stay back I'll take care of these gu...." Montana was hit in the base of his neck with a dracon fire.

The strange man was down. A dracon beam had sliced right through the base of his neck. He hit the ground with a thud. I couldn't help but feel concerned for him. He had tried to help. And now he would certainly die. <Are you all right?> I asked anyway. A Hork-Bajir suddenly barrelled into my from the side. I stumbled, turned around, and swiped my paw at the creature's head. It fell backward, but quickly stood again. What an idiot.

I rammed into the Hork-Bajir. This time, he didn't get up.

A Taxxon slithered out of nowhere, and I gutted him like the last one, while he was distracted by the carnage lying around.

<Yeesh! Where are these things coming from?> I ran over to the strange guy's side. I nudged him, and I listened for breathing, but I couldn't tell over all the noise.

<Hey, man, come one. Don't die on us. We just met you!>

Too concerned with the Hork-Bajir fighting with me, I hardly registered the new... man? dying. I snarled, and the wolf took over, snarling and ripping at Hork-Bajir flesh. A question arose in my mind, and after killing the Hork-Bajir I was fighting, I looked up towards the hole in the ceiling.. <Uh, Ais, Leah? We're kind of in a giant cage...> I commented, trying to hold my fear back.

(would that be a godmod?)

(Only if there is absolutely no way out, in which case the story is over, anyway. It COULD be that only you are caged, or there is just a cage ABOVE us, but not around us. Who knows? ;))

<Worry about it later. Fight Controllers now!> I knew that there wasn't any time to help the strange guy, and he'd be dead anyway, if we lost, so I returned to the action...

to find myself surrounded by three Hork-Bajir. Great.

I faked a move toward the farthest one, then dove past him as he moved to intercept me. He gashed my spine, but I managed to take his legs out from under him. In a flash, I had him by the windpipe. I tore it out and turned back to the other two, watching them from five yards away.
<Do you REALLY want to mess with me, fella'?> I asked the one in front of me. He lunged at me, and I flipped to my back, kicking and slashing, using his momentum to send him flying backward over my head.
<WRONG ANSWER!! What about you, Yeerk?>

Something clocked me from behind, leaving me dizzy. The Hork-Bajir was moving to slash me, and I barely missed getting my head taken off. I leapt away with a nasty hole in my shoulder. Well, that paw would be useless until I could demorph. Phooey. And ouch.

<Leah and Edward! Are you guys okay?>

(Bedtime for Esty. G'night, all!)
