The Sharing: Rebellion From Within

[morfowt]

"I think the gun is called a Dracon." Michael said, not that it was very helpful in this situation. "I guess Corliss is another nickname for Mike. And maybe Kandrona is some kind of food? And Aurora, I don't think you're in a position to tell someone with a gun to do anything" His heart was thundering in his chest. He didn't know whether he was scared or excited.

[traycon3]

Tia and Norpo were in mid fight during a majority of the proceedings. She wanted to go ahead and shoot Kaitlyn. Norpo wasn't going to let her. The argument continued on until they reached an impass.
Smiling a bit, Tia pulled out her Dracon beam and pointed it at Mike, twisting her body so that only her right side was facing Kaitlyn. "Drop the Dracon beam," she said, winking with her left eye at Corliss.

[Myitt]

Corliss, who had been glaring at Kaitlyn/Illrid, froze at the sound of Tia's command.  He glanced at her in surprise, then understanding. 

"I can see I'm outnumbered," Corliss said faintly, looking at his weapon, then shooting an evil look back at Tia.  "And to think I trusted you."  He paused a moment longer, then he slowly placed the Dracon on the ground and stood back up, hands in the air.  "Just let the humans go, they don't know anything yet, they aren't a threat to us."

[traycon3]

Tia, still keeping the gun pointed at Corliss, scooped up the one on the ground and stepped back, making sure to point both guns at Corliss. "Well, I suppose that would depend on Illrid. I might be more inclined to let them go, but with Illrid being here, we'd have to agree on the same story, assuming you're willing to go along with it, of course." She looked over her shoulder at Illrid and raised both eyebrows, "momentarily distracted".

[Myitt]

Corliss took the opportunity to lunge over and tried to knock one of the guns from Tia's hand, then moved to grip her other arm in a vice, prying the other one away to make it look more like a struggle.  "Filthy Imperial slime!" he growled as he fought, now holding onto one Dracon, the other one clattering to the pavement.

[traycon3]

Tia tried to get her arm out of Corliss' grip but only suceeded in causing more pain to herself than anything else. With a scream of anger and frustration, she glared at Illrid. "Why are you just standing there?!"
<Ow, ow, you're just making it worse,> Tia snapped as Norpo tried to move her arm a bit, trying to get into a less painful position.
<Well, excuse me for trying to help.>
<Fine. You're excused.>

[Myitt]

He finally wrenched away, holding one Dracon and pointing it back and forth from Tia to Kaitlyn, finally settling on Kaitlyn.  "Let us go, or I swear I will destroy you," he hissed at her.  "I'm already dead to the Empire.  And yes," he sneered, "the lives of these humans are worth it."

[traycon3]

Tia stumbled forward towards Illrid and stood within arms reach of the other girl. She moved her arm in slow, small circles, shaking it to get the feeling back in it before throwing a fairly well aimed punch at Kaitlyn's face.

[morfowt]

Michael watched at the struggle. He didn't know whether he was excited or scared or shocked. "Who are we rooting for?" he asked Aurora. And before she could answer, it was over. "Wow. that was fast." he commented. And then he was definetly shocked when Tia punched Kaitlyn. "Weren't they on the same side?" he asked Aurora.

[Terenia]

Aurora watched wide eyed as the drama unfolded. Noticing the unretrieved Dracon Beam she inches forward, leans down, looks around nervously, and picks it up. Quickly she returns to her position next to Michael, the Dracon at her side. She glances down at it, "This is a weird looking gun..."

Glancing over at Michael she shrugs, almost sheepishly, "I don't know who is on whose side, but one less gun in the fight has to be a good thing. Right?"

Quickly she tucks the Dracon into her pants, in a similar fashion to how Tia had it earlier, pulling her hoodie down so that it covers the bulge.

[morfowt]

"Yeah. It looks more like a laser than a shot gun. And it's not always a good thing. What if Mike, well if he's on our side and it looks like he is, didn't have one. wouldn't that be bad?" he asked. He watched Aurora tuck the dracon into her pants. "Wouldn't you get in trouble if they found out you have one?" he asked.

[Terenia]

"I think we're already in trouble." Aurora comments, watching  the others, "I think we are beyond trouble."

Denise continued her slow, inconspicuous move away from the quarreling guides, still not wanting to attract any unnecessary attention to herself. But then suddenly the confrontation broke out into a serious fight.

Using the climax of the conflict to her benefit, Denise jumped up from behind the dumpster and sprinted back into the main Sharing complex. She ran through the corridors, bumping into people as she went, but she could honestly care less right at the moment. She needed to get help and fast...especially if those kids out there were at risk of getting hurt or worse.

[Qwerty the Charliecorn]

Kaitlyn watched the fight silently. While Illrid found it rather amusing, Kaitlyn was only afraid.

<What if he gets ahold of the Dracon? He'll kill us!>

<He will not. He's too distracted fighting her to notice.>

Kaitlyn knew what was coming. Illrid made an attempt to run, but stopped, only centimeters from where she had been standing. Tia had turned to her suddenly. She staggered over and delivered a blow to her face. Kaitlyn grunted and stumbled backward, clutching the side of her face, trying to blink away the spots in her field of vision.

Suddenly, the other girl, the stranger, bolted off and headed into the building, too quickly to be stopped.

"You idiot!" she growled, returning Norpo's punch. "She got away! If one of you had been keeping an eye on her, this wouldn't have happened." Really, Illrid was bluffing, looking for an excuse to end this fight. It was one she would surely lose. After all, her enemies' host bodies were twice the size of hers.

[Myitt]

"Stop," Corliss snapped, bruised and glowering, still aiming the one Dracon at Kaitlyn.  "Just stop.  Your feeble little threats might sound relatively convincing if everyone inside that building came out here to help you."  He glanced up, the twilit street suddenly bathed in faint red light.  "But I don't think that's going to happen.  Do you?"  He turned back to smile coldly at her. 

Above them, invisible but audible, something...big...w as looming, its only real evidence the flickering red light and great gusts of hot air billowing toward them. 

He herded the humans back, murmuring to them.  "Stay back, things are gonna get weird, mates..."

(Gotta go to bed, sorry guys!  Stupid work x3  Just assume it's just floating there, cloaked...we all know what it is...x3  It's a giant alien BRICK.  Um.  Yeah.  ^^;)
