Re: Pathos Facility
Koike caught the 'gun' as it neared him.
As that happened, an armored, raven-winged figure appeared in response to Jack's calling. Holding a sword, it dove at the Shadow, striking it. A few tendrils are chopped off, but aside from that, not much of a response is present.
Koike half-snapped, "Where's Smartass when you need him?"
As Koike said this, Terpsichore's voice echoed in Bell's mind. 'Let it see the eye, then strike where it will lie.'
"SMARTASS!? WHO THE FUCK YOU CALLIN' SMARTASS!?"
Gil suddenly busted in, his evoker already out, and his revolver smoking.
With a grin, he pointed the "gun" to his head, and pulled the trigger with absolutely no hesitation, as though he had done it before many times.
"Heh. Come on out, Balor."
Gil was suddenly cast in a dark shadow, making only his eyes semi-visible because of their bright red color. What looked like glass shards came out of his head, and an armored black skinned humanoid with one hand covering one of his eyes towered over him. The creature had black armor with red highlights covering him.
"Thou art I, and I am thou. I was born of thee and I will walk with thee. I am Balor, of the evil eye.
"You said that when I first summoned you! Tryin' to be polite to Ms. Bell, are we? Anyway, let's knock that fucker down!"
Gil pointed to the shadow, and Balor responded by seemingly ripping his hand off his left eye, revealing a bright red sphere where his other eye should've been. As Balor did this, a fire emerged on the shadow, and it responded by burning (duh) and melting into a pile of black goo with a steel mask in the middle.
"I can't tell if it's down for the count or not. Smash it a couple more times!"
