Among the students of Joseph Clark High School those living in the Fens were considered, without a trace of irony, to be from a 'bad part of town'. As such Keith LaMarr tended to consider them at risk and meriting a certain extra attention. When Tasha Brand failed to show up to class to deliver her civics project, he'd taken notice. Checking with the school administration revealed that her younger brother had similarly been absent that day and a call home to their parents went unanswered. That was enough to warrant a trip to their apartment building after the school day ended. The police presence and assorted colourful characters on the scene confirmed that this was going to fall under the requirements of his previous day job. "Watch the language," he calmly advised the apparently teenage teleporter on the lamppost, methodically rolling up the sleeves of dress shirt he'd worn to work that day as he strode over. "Keith LaMarr," he introduced himself to the officer overseeing the robot's preparation. "Might be able to help. Hoping this isn't more fairy tale stuff, though," he added, with a nod to Cannonade.

Coming down nearby the carriage, Wail made a sound of acknowledgement in Caradoc's direction before barreling forward with surprising speed given his size directly at the coachman. Heedless of wandering into Gabriel's line of fire, the earsplitting educator wasn't about to give the slippery opponent any breathing room to get a step ahead again. Hand rocketing forward like a piston, he caught the fae by the throat and slammed him into brick wall of the nearest building with enough force to rattle what passed for the creature's bone and knock a few loose bits of masonry loose. "You're going nowhere, joker," he rumbled in a deep, dangerous tone, pinning the coachman in place and looming over him menacingly. "You've been taking folks. You're going to tell us where and why. I'm talking now; you've already used up all my damn patience."

Snorting, Ellie wandered off far enough to retrieve another few branches of fair size. "True, I don't have the the lights-behind-the-eyes to work one of your suits properly," she observed, looking back over her shoulder at Mara and placing her free hand on her hip. "You could stand to mention the pants appreciation more often, though." Yolanda stopped what she was doing and walked quickly over to where Min was seated, looking down at the druid with a grave expression. "I am the best at climbing trees," she answered somberly, folding her arms and jutting her chin out slightly. "Lucie at school is faster but she's half Avian even if her wings haven't grown in all the way yet and we all agreed that's sort of like cheating."

The massive beast slithered lithely like a sidewinder to avoid the mystic fire, moving with uncanny grace for something with so much apparent mass. Nevertheless she recoiled slightly, evidently less eager to trade blows again with the assembled heroes just yet. Instead she shot forward, clawed, boney fingers reaching toward her original target like a quintet of dark, diamond spears. The hand wrapped around Set, pinning the godling and lifting him into the air. "Gnyeea!" Set shouted in pain and surprise as he was carried away, his expression caught between a wince and outrage at the entire situation. "This affront - ngh! - shall not be forgotten, Tamoanchanian!" he snarled, struggling against the unyielding substance of the grasping hand. On the ground, Sekhmet's form flowed like water for an instant, leaving the young, black haired woman in place of the lioness as she turned to the local heroes. "Attend, champions, this demoness must not succeed!" she implored them, desire to fulfill her duty outweighing her distaste for the kidnapping victim. "I shall explain fully later!"

"'Not that guy'?" Wail scoffed tersely, raising a broad hand to make it abundantly clear he was was uninterested in hearing that line of argument. "So you're a robot? Not in your programming? Spend more time on your decisions and less on your excuses, son. Jesus, 'soldiers'." Mouth twisting in annoyance, he turned about to leave the room. "Let's go, Voodoo. Time to keep some fool children from ending up statistics."

Sekhmet seemed less concerned with either sport or diplomacy, taking advantage of her opponent's immobilization to rake deep gashes through tattered fabric with her claws, roaring victory in the wake of yet more dissipating diamond-like powder. "Rrr, thine appeals to ego would work on liesmith, drrraugr," she rumbled, stalking in a slow circle as she chose a new direction to pounce, "but the tzitzimimeh be warriors." The lioness goddess' assertion did not seem entirely correct, however, as Frost could feel the face of the demoness under his touch contort with rage through flayed skin and muscle. "No failuresss!" the handful of remaining snake women hissed in unison, unpleasant shapes sliding about beneath their flesh as they writhed back and forth against their bonds. "Never beaten!" Their incensed movements reached a fevered pitch before they abruptly burst into fine powder just as their defeated sisters had. "...well!" Set began after a nonplussed pause. "I suppose that works as well?" His sense of victory was short lived however as the winds brought a wisp of crystalline dust past his nose, then another and another as they joined together in an airborne stream that whipped about the stormy battlefield. "Ah. Not my fault!" the godling insisted, raising his hands in a gesture of innocence. With a grating sound like gemstones sliding against each other, the dust began to reform into a towering form, very nearly one hundred feet tall. The upper body was vaguely feminine as the tzitzimimeh had been but with four arms in total, each ending in razor sharp talons. In place of a face was a polished skull with eye sockets that bled ebony black energies and hair made of twitching rattlesnake tails. So too did her lower body extend into a serpentine tail that ended in a rattling tip, coils of terrible muscle pushing the creature upward and over the heroes below and even Tiamat in the air. Massive bat-like wings protruded from her back, sending gusts of wind through the whipping storm with each flap. The entire thing was composed of something like black diamond, swallowing light from some angles and gleaming from others. Opening a mouth of fangs, the monster let forth a hiss loud enough to shake the glass of the skyscrapers to each side. "Sssset!" "I am reconsidering my stance on negative attention," the chaos god noted, taking a few steps backward.

"Aha! Tis very educational!" Set called to Gaian Knight across the whipping winds, watching the stones pulverize the tzitzimitl like a crystalline figurine under a bucket of gravel. "Repeated appeals for surrender and offers of mercy to both maintain the moral high ground and impress upon your opponent how little you think of the threat they present! Masterful indeed!" Spinning around as his shendyt whipped about, the godling pointed a pair of fingers doggedly persistent demoness still struggling to reach him despite layers of ice and ectoplasm holding her at bay. In response yet another bolt of crimson lightning stuck downward, the thunder reaching deafening levels. In it's wake the attack left nothing but tattered scraps and more dust to be swept away in the wind. The lord of storms surveyed his handiwork contemplatively, placing a finger to his pursed lips. "Hrm. Holding them in place removes much of the sport, do you not think?"

"That actually works out alright, since you being there is the only thing I really need," Ellie murmured with a quirk of a smile that didn't make the saccharine words any less heartfelt. Wandering over, she leaned against her shorter girlfriend's shoulder, lightly knocking her hip into Mara affectionately. "I would, too, you know. Go find you." The young woman sighed, shoulders slumping slightly. "Pretty done with the damsel in distress thing. Just when I thought I was over the whole mind control thing."

This time the tzitzimimeh, beaten about as they were, had less success evading the ectoplasmic hands Nick summoned to bind them in place. Every one of them still intact was rooted to the spot by ghostly limbs and even those able to struggle against the bonds found themselves well bound. The demoness falling from Tiamat's jaws disintegrated into crystalline dust before it could hit the ground, swept away in the storm's winds like her fallen sisters. Fleur's attack was less effective; the paralytic pollen she sent cascading into her target had little effect on something that evidently did not need to breath. The cloud was quickly dispersed while dripping venom continued to eat away at the vines still resolutely adding to Nick's spell.
