I13: Elements

Though many students might prefer going to London, Maldon provides closer amenities for those without a car or unwilling to pay for a cab. Several pubs are available, though the Rose and Crown is notable for having been where Excalibur spent a good deal of their downtime. Also of note is the Plume Library, home to many rare books.

The first thug held his position, while the second pushed past Haley as he headed over to the bar, where the blond girl was trying to shrink back into a corner.

Sid grabs the empty bottle of beer from where she put in on the floor and slips it into her jacket's pocket and then sidles up to the thug who is staying near the door.

Emily brushes her hair out of her face and looks up.

"Miss Sidney?"

She sounds worried.

Mars pulls Steve close, whispering to him, "Might want to watch it. Something's happening."

Why did she ever leave the dorms without her bow? Oh, that's right. It got confiscated because of the Avengers thing.

Suck.

"Come along, Daisy.' the thug said, backing her further into the corner "We don't want any more trouble, now do we."

God damnit. Trouble follows us everywhere... she thought to Cal, sticking close to him, dancing slightly with him to not draw any extra attention to themselves.

She quietly tried to put up a shield of telekinetic in between the girl and the thugs.

"I said to fuck off." the second thug growled at Sidney.

"Now come along." the first one said to Daisy "It'll go easier for you if you do."

"Oh well if you put it like that." she says, turning around with a smirk on her face, pretending to leave for about a second before she whips around and tries to deliver a kick to the side of the guy's knee.

Haley had a look of concentration on her face that Cal would probably recognize--she was definitely using her TK for something at the moment.

"Already watching," he said, scowling. Against his better judgment, he mentally reached out to get a feel for what the men were thinking.

Steve and Haley would run into what felt like fairly solid shields.

The thug that Emily and Sidney attacked didn't seem to be overly bothered by the kicks and punches. He ignored Emily for the moment, and then aimed a punch at Sidney's head.

The other thug grabbed at Daisy, grunting in frustration when Haley's shield got in the way, and again when the stool hit him in the shoulder.

Sid takes the hit and tumbles off to the side, though without having to waste too much time on trying to recover it's really more of a side-stepping so she can pull the beer bottle from her pocket and smash it over the guy's head.

Emily's arm reformed back to normal, morphed into a sharp looking spike, and exploded outward while aimed at the thug's back.

Alex didn't seem to have much of a question about what he should be doing. He followed through on the stool by rushing the guy who was going for the girl. Let's see... I'm going to go with... steel, he thought as he focused on one of his rings...

Brigid shoved her way through the crowd to grab some cabling from the audio equipment, and tried to loop it around one of the thugs' necks so she could pull back.

Steve had trouble getting much of a fix on the girl, unless he wanted to court the risk of getting swept up in all the strong emotions she was having. Panic and fear, overwhelming.

Sid's bottle smashed over the thug's head, bringing a grunt of frustration but not much apparent pain. The spike that Emily aimed at him didn't seem to penetrate.

Alex managed to shift to steel in time, but rushing the thug was like hitting a concrete wall as he bulled right back.

Brigid managed to loop the cable in her attempt to help Alex. The thug struggled, but eventually got better leverage and tugged back hard against her, sending her tumbling.

What he sensed before he stopped probing at the girl made Steve furious. No one deserved to feel that way. So, welled up his mental strength and tried to slip the illusion that the girl had vanished past the thugs' defenses.

Mars grabs Steve by the arm to get his attention, "This is getting bad. We should get people out of here before this gets out of hand."

With that said, Mars starts making her way to the exit.

Alex hit the ground with a clang, shaking off the slight daze (he WAS made of steel, after all) as he looked at the thug. Well fuck you too, buddy. He gritted his teeth an lunged up, gripping his fists together and swinging them to drive them into the man's gut.
