Sold Out!

[Nox]

Fuck! Lights from whatever authority figures started to shine down each row. Fuck! Jay had scooped up the girl, she was cradled in his arms like a small child. Jay reached for the head and Nox pulled it back out of reach. He couldn't just get rid of it. If they put it back with it's body it could rise again. No...

There weren't many options. The lights and voices were getting closer. The girl was staring at him in horror. She didn't want him to touch her and he didn't blame her one bit. He was covered in blood. It was starting to dry and his shirt was becoming stiff with it. This night sucked so fucking bad right now.

Nox wished he could knock out all the communication and lights out at the same time. The only trick he had for that was lightning or electricity overload. But that wouldn't fry the comms. He needed an EMP. Nox made a mental note to talk with Sage and Cruz.

He could hide the body and them if he knew how to bend light like the guy here at the show - the guy who was no presumably dead. Fuck! Atharim had to have had a way out. There were no gun shots fired, they had to be close. Unless it was some new fangled weapon - even worse than what Aria had told him about. Block Microwave and EM radiation - another two items added to his mental checklist - or three depending on how you looked at it.

Nox did the only thing he could think of. "No man, I can't let you take the fall for this if you get caught. She don't like me anyway."
He grinned in the firelight and let it fade into nothingness. "There has to be a way out through the stage area. Be quiet as you move I'll be right behind you. I promise."
Nox didn't wait for an answer as he turned around to do what he had to do.

He was thankful that the Atharim had knocked out the power - the primary and the secondary otherwise there would be more than just EXIT signs light up. Even the emergency lighting was down. The Atharim were definitely here. And Nox took a deep breathe as he did the only thing he could do...he wield the power of gods and if anyone saw his face he was fucked!

First things first - remove the lights. For every flashlight coming down the aisle Nox burst them with a tiny weave of fire and air a little earth to give it strength. It was baby lightning. The body needed to burn - the head needed to burn. Nox made a box of air around the body and started the weave that would ignite it.

Now came the fun part. Nox threw the head as far and as hard as his arm and his power could throw and wove the fire weave around it. Nox watched it sale into the darkness as he finished the weave and the head caught fire. He wished for a little homemade napalm but a straight up fireball would have to do.

Nox headed for the stage as the men in the aisle scurried towards the light. Safely on stage in the darkness Nox moved slowly and when he saw an exit sign behind the stage he looked back and finished the fire on the body. It's contents started burning and the attention was on the massive fire. It wouldn't burn anything down because of the air walled box. But that air would hold so long as no one sliced through the weaves or beat too hard on the wall. Everything decayed even after it was tied off.

The exit door was only a few feet way and everyone else was hopefully distracted. Nox wanted to pray to Aria's god that this would end up alright, but Nox didn't believe in Aria's god. He didn't believe in anything he couldn't see for himself.
