Before them were large dark puddles, like ink droplets that appeared on the ground before them, and Akash looked up, pointing to them to Emrys. "There, just ahead. Is that the spirit that attacked you?"

It was a large black mass, moving slowly further and further away from him. "Don't be afraid Emrys. You are a mage, correct?  You are not without your own self-defense," he murmured.

"Yeah." Emrys shuddered slightly. "That's it."

He frowned and tried to look taller than he was, shuffling a little away from the other man. "I'm not afraid," he grumbled churlishly.

Lion

"Okay then. Now go confront your demon," Akash muttered and nudged Emyrs forward.  He certainly wasn't going to face that thing.

The mage blanched. "What?!" he whisper-shrieked. "How- what the hell am I supposed to do? Do you want me to kill it?!"

How in earth was he supposed to go about doing that?

Lion

"You're the mage!  You don't know how to fight evil spirits?" Akash hissed to Emrys.  As much as he tried to keep his tone hushed, the black mass quivered and turned to face the pair, and slowly slithered toward them.  "Holy Shit!  Emrys! Do something!"

"Well, I've never done it before-!" Emrys started to snap back, but then the creature was moving toward them and he didn't have time to think. "Fuck!"

Her threw his hands out, shouting the ancient Serenian word for fire, and flames exploded from his palms, waving over the creature in a wave of heat and destruction.

Lion

The fire curled over the mass and made it wince and cringe backwards. Anything was better than nothing and it gave Akash a chance to maneuver around the being and focus his telekinetic pulse. The first wave of electricity came from his staff as he thrust it forward and felt the force connect enough to make the creature growl in frustration.

It turned toward Akash and he moved backwards, glaring up at the shape, the black mass that swooped forward to engulf him.

"Shield!"

Without thinking, Emrys lurched forward to stand half in front of Akash, hands stretched out and up as a thin, glowing blue barrier flickered into being around them. Not much, but the best he could do under pressure.
