[b][u]A Temporary Return[/u][/b]
[i]Dojo Gates, 00:00[/i]
Sarah Grey had returned.
The Warlock had returned one reason.
She had grown more powerful. And she intended to use this newfound ability.
Sarah through with excitement, unable to wait. And she ran into someone.

The man staggered back, loomed at who, or more accurately [i]what [/i] it was, frowned, and put his hand on a strange object on his belt, looking like a cross between a butterfly, a Swiss army knife and a torch.
-
"I'm sorry," Sarah apologised
-
The device emitted a dim light, and the man carefully picked himself up and made his way past her.
-
"What is that?" She asked. The Warlock was one of curiosity.
-
The man paused for a second. "Swiss army knife."
-
"That is waaaay more than a Swiss army knife."
-
"Not much more. "

[i]She bumped into a monster of a man. He stood at at least 7 feet in height, his arms extraordinarily bulky; it looked as though he could snap a truck in half like a pencil. When looking up into his eyes, they were crimson; and housed so much darkness, hate, anger, and sorrow, they could drown a person. Suddenly, an explosion was heard coming from Sarah's right; a hurling ball of energy slammed into the man's head, exploding in green flames... but also black lightning. Approximately fifty feet to Sarah's right was another man, this one standing at 5'11". He wore a black trench coat, which ended just below his knees. Underneath, he wore a green t-shirt along with a pair of black combat pants. His hair was shaggy, artfully messy, and jet black, while his eyes were a dark green; they hid the same emotions as the giant's eyes did, however his eyes were more sorrowful. Sad, with less intense anger. The giant first man stumbled back with a yell, his face utterly burnt and torn up. However, the skin... began to rapidly heal, flesh regenerating with a sickening, gooey sound. Soon, all that was left was the blood from the attack... the wound was gone. The giant turned to face the second man, a growl rumbling in his throat.[/i] "So that's your ability, huh? Troublesome," [i]The second man muttered; his voice was surprisingly soft, only barely audible to Sarah. He raised his right hand, which was covered by a skintight glove just like his left, and clenched it into a fist. It ignited in green flames and black lightning, and the two substances fused together to create a new energy; firetricity. His green eyes were focused on the giant, apparently having not noticed Sarah; she could easily make herself very noticeable, however.[/i]
-
"Oh my...." She said. She took a few steps back. Jumping and parkouring off sides of buildings. Her hand lit up with Void light, which was snapping in her hand. The ball of light grew in her hand. She released the sphere as it flew at the giant man, and exploded.
-
[i]The giant was launched backwards, and fell on the ground, his body scorched and broken; however, the bones snapped back into place. The flesh regenerated. While he was indeed still greatly injured, he was healing rapidly... dangerously rapidly. The other man didn't question what made Sarah attack the giant instead of him, having noticed the Warlock. Instead, he launched another blast of green and black firetricity at the giant as he attempted to stand; more flesh was burnt away, yet he did not stop regenerating. However, their combined efforts were draining the giant... little by little.[/i]
-
She smiled. She activated her Stormtrance, bolts of eletricity flying at the giant. When it ran out, she jumped over the giant man, firing a few shotgun slugs from her Two to the Mourge.
-
[i]As the bullets struck the giant, they lodged into his flesh; they were healed over, causing the bullets to stay lodged in his body. The bolts of lightning slowly scorched away at the giant's body, charring his flesh; however, he was healing only a little slower. The bullets, however... that looked more effective, as they stayed lodged inside the giant. Seeing this, the man pulled a handgun from his left side. He quickly aimed, then proceeded to begin rapidly pulling the trigger. Multiple massive, .50 caliber bullets struck the giant's body, followed by several loud gunshots.[/i]
-
She pulled out a machine gun and began to fire at the giant man. After a good three mags, she ran out of ammo. She began putting more slugs into the Giant.
-
[i]Soon, there were so many bullets in the giant's body that he simply... died, having so much lead pumped into him. The man ran up to the giant, feeling his pulse; he had to make sure he was dead. After checking, he lifted his right hand once more. It ignited with firetricity, the green and black light illuminated the dark midnight. He began burning the giant's body, his flesh disappearing.[/i]
-
The Warlock grinned, "Looks like you needed my help."
-
"Sure," [i]The man agreed, without really filtering Sarah's words. Once again, his voice was soft, smooth. He stood, the remains of the giant's body now a mound of ashes. He looked around; where there was one Contractee, there would probably always be another.[/i]
-
She ended up running into a man dressed in a fine black business suit. By the looks of it he was human, but he seemed to radiate energy that suggested some sort of immortal being. Despite this, the impact sent him stumbling back. "What the..."
-
"I'm sorry, sir."
-
"Oh, no, no need to be sorry!"
-
She seemed puzzled by this response. "What do you mean?"
-
"I can see your clearly in a hurry! I just happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time."
-
"Oh..." She said. She hung her helmeted head in shame.
-
"I was being serious."
-
"I know..." She said.
-
[b]His tone shifted to one of slight concern...[/b] "Are you... alright? I didn't mean to make it sound like..."
