Nightkill the Emperor wrote:Crowley paused after running through the wall. They were standing in a dark hallway. He glanced back and let his team get through as well, closing the wall behind them by using considerable effort and metalbending it shut. He panted again, already weary from his long day and having to use an art he wasn't much good with.
"Who are you? Can you help us?" "They didn't talk about this in church..."
Crowley looked in front of himself and saw the hallway went down a far, far distance. "No choice. We need to go." He said reluctantly.
"They can't help us. Not anymore."
Crowley continued walking forward "We need to get Zacheriah..." he muttered. "It isn't right here..."
"Get out, yes! Get us out!"
"I don't know how they managed to separate and control those souls, but it's no real life. But we need to find Zacheriah..." Crowley growled, repeating himself. His rage was shaking him. He needed to find and kill Zacheriah, even if it was the last thing he did. For everything he had done.
"Yes! No real life! Get us out! We need to move on! MAKE THE VOICE STOP, MAKE IT STOP!"
He had walked four feet forward when someone emerged from the hallway. "Sir." Minh said crisply. He looked exactly like he had when he had been taken just an hour ago on the submarine. "Lewis." He nodded. "It is good to see you. I wish it had been under better circumstances."
"Minh," Lewis said cheerily, complimenting it with a terse nod.
Before "Minh" had time to react or contemplate the depth of Lewis' fury and insanity, the Geography teacher pounced on him. Lewis flew straight at Minh and, connecting, wrapped his arms around his waist and brought him to the ground. While he did this, he unleashed an unearthly, blood-curdling cry that caused Forestsnow to instinctively shit himself - this noise was known to the bears as "the Howl of the Moon", a terrible sound that heralded death, just as the fabled call of the Moon warned his foes of their eminent dooms. The Moon was kind of a dick.
"Crowley!" Lewis barked, "Get the ring!"
Not entirely trusting Crowley, Lewis attempted to melt the ring with his heat vision - it would take a long time and a tremendous amount of energy to do so, and Lewis was already distracted by the struggle of holding Minh down, a struggle he was not entirely sure he was winning.
Things did not look well for him.
