With Joseph down, the man with the crowbar turned his sights to the two women fighting. Some people underestimate women, looke down on them and let them go. This man was not one of them. As Dawn attempted to stall with words, her female opponent closed in. A complete change of strategy against an armed opponent. The reason being, the man with the crowbar was sneaking behind her, ready to knock her out. With a mighty swing of the metal weapon.

Jack shouted, and cursed, and a few men were frightened. It was only natural but they had numbers and weapons. There had been a wave of fear as the massive Dragon lept into the air with his giant canning, spewing down fires of death. The relief of being saved by some mysterious shots was enough for them to simply continue firing. By the dumpster, there were a good five men whose firing pattern seemed to be cornering Jack into a certain direction. There were five large explosions as Jack's rounds finally went off.

Freya, Slevin, and Ethan had seemed to gather around the same general vacinity. Freya had managed to make it safely under the vehicle but that would not be the best area for long as the vehicle seemed to be the focus of a lot of the bullets. All around the trio, richoeted bullets narrowly missed them. One of the gunners noticed the three of them and turned his uzi at them, a spray of bullets coming their way.

---

Two vans had appeared in the front of the choke point, unloading more men. Two more vans appeared from the back. Things were getting bad.

---

There had been light. Then darkness. The voice had filled the void and once again there was light. There was an explosion of light and the giant humvee came crashing into a low brick wall where a man with a rifle stood. The vehicle plowed onward, shaking the passengers as it went forward. The man's body crunched in two at the base of his spine where the vehicle struck, blood splattering across the windshield. One moment they were shaken, the next airborne flying off the roof of a building. John would feel a strange tingling. Perhaps it was his innate desire to survive that triggered his ability. It was only by pure chance that the large humvee landed wheels first on another vehicle crushing it beneath them.

Judas, John, Miranda, Serenity, Glen and Akamaru were all shaken up, alive and relatively undamaged.

There was of course a momentary cease fire from the Halloweeners that had been in front of Jack's card. Those men were quite obviously shocked to see a vehicle come from nowhere crashing atop one of their vans and crushing some of their men.

From the other end of the blockade came the grinding noise of what could only be compared to tank treads. A large train like vehicle came rumbling from the smoke at high speeds crashing into two of the vehicles and sending them tumbling over. The side of the train like vehicle cracked open and out charged the Sanctus Paladin in full power arm, glowing blade in hand. Behind him, two familiar figures, Ryan (not that one) and Jason with automatics laying down cover fire. Xiadra could be seen standing nearby as Fang and Ayuban dashed out to join the fray.

Though the entrance slid open, there seemed to be metal barriers designed to act as cover for those shooting from inside.

It started as such a normal day for Erin and then the gun fire broke out right outside of her shop. The normal procedure was to lay low. Her brothers normally took care of the place when things like this broke out but they were out running errands, it was her and her mom. They seemed fine for a little while. A few men had broken into the back of the shop, they didn't steal anything, simply charged out the front door to enter the fray. It seemed as if they truly would be left alone. It was a gang warzone after all... Then the explosion occured inside the shop. There was dust, debris, and choking smoke everywhere. A fire had started in a few locations.

The humvee with that containted the district of the dead party had blacked out windows. From the outside, it was impossible to look in. Those who were in the vehicle would be privvy to quite the shoot out. The disoriented Halloweeners that they had crashed around, began to focus on the vehicle that drove itself off the crushed vehicle beneath it. They began opening fire from all sides. There was of course the initial instinct of a person to flinch, dive, duck, or avoid gun fire but regardless of actions taken, the bullets would be mostly deflected off the metal and tempered glass.

The group in the car would be able to clearly see the Halloweeners, Jack, and those by his car. Judas would note the Order vehicle that seemed to have just arrived as they had in the distance.

Jack would continue to unload rounds and knives on opponents. Six more men would be dropped by his gun fire; four by clean head shots, the others vital body shots. As he moved for cover, a group of men would charge at him and meet his projectile blades, three men dropping with blades sticking out of their throats. While this whole scene took place, Jack would note the sudden sound of hissing beneath the gun fire. Somewhere along the way, the sniper had shot his tires in just the right position to pop them. It would be impossible to tell now but from the angle of entry points in the tires, it looked as if the sniper had been in 4 different locations.

Leaping from fire escapes, three men had tackled Jack as he had been in motion. Jack wasn't caught completely off guard, as they had lept, the distinct battle cry of "WAAAAHOOOO" was emitted. Halloweeners really were crazy.

---

Freya would find her bindings sliced neatl off as gunfire continued to blast around her. She would denote a distinct hissing sound as all four of the vehicles tires were popped in near unison. She had seconds to escape before being crushed by the vehicle.

Slevin began to run off with not true direction, which was normally grounds for death in such a gun fight. The one shooter that had targetted Slevin was knocked over as a high speed object from Ethan that struck him in the face. He was not dead but neither was he conscious. As he fell to the floor, his finger remained on the trigger expelling the rest of its rounds.

Slevin's arm had decided that self preservation was important. It's host was far too stupid to let roam free. Without word or warning, black goo like substance emitted from his arm and snapped around in an arc before him. Forming the shape of a human hand, it had struck Slevin across the face with enough force to send him to the ground. Once on the ground, the black substance slivered about until it had reached a solid object which Ethan was using for cover. It gripped on and suddenly dragged Slevin toward Ethan at high speed. His host would suffer minor abbrasions but it was for his own good.

---

Dawn was a moment away from running into a crowbar from the person behind her. It was only by Xiadra's intervention that she was not struck down. The warrior woman's shot struck true, hitting the man's arm, sending him tumbling to the ground. Xiadra's next few shots would tag a few Halloweeners that had been encroaching prior to their arrival, a few, of course, missed completely.

Moment's earlier.

"My Lord, the locals seem to be engaging in a minor scuffle."

(Sanctus Paladin) "Can we avoid it?"

"Unlikely... Scanners detect EBA Dragon Master."

The old man scowled as he turned to Xiadra.

(Sanctus Paladin) "It seems unavoidable but we must engage. Your, friend, seems to be fighting an army of men on his own."

Ayuban had remained seated, his arms resting over his legs as the journey continued on. Fang had remained crouched next to him. The two, though silent, seemed to have an understanding with one another. As the man in the power armor spoke, Ayuban merely turned his head to the side as Fang's did. Almost in unison they turned toward one another and nodded. Jason and Ryan, most of the trip, had been chatting about random inane things. They were not quite calm, nor nervous, but the conversation helped them focus and get by. With the news of Jack in trouble they became alert.

(Sanctus Paladin) "Man the vehicle. I shall engage first to draw off heavy arms, you two will provide cover fire while they assist in suppression."

The old man's took on a tone similar to Baxtor's at time. He was giving orders and expected them to be obeyed. Both Ryan and Jason had readied themselves at the side of the doors ready to do told. The old man turned once more to her and offered a similar fatherly smile. Before donning the frightening helm. There was a small click and the sound of air expelling as the helmet pressurized. He spoke once more, his voice deep, mechanical and frightening.

(Sanctus Paladin) "Be one with the Light."

The red giant mechanical power armor seemed to glide across the field, fire propelling from it's backside as its jet's propelled him forward. With a feircesome grace and skill men were struck down with the strange glowing blade. Though, most importantly, despite the bullets richochetting off the armor, the men who were dropped were not killed. Each blow had been struck with just enough force to incapacitate. The Commander had never approved of lethal force unless absolutely neccessary.

Both Jason and Ryan had provided enough suppressive fire to cease the shooting that those by Jack's vehicle were receiving. It seemed Dawn, Joseph, Freya, Slevin, and Ethan were given a moment of repreive to regroup and do something constructive to save their ow lives.

A bundle of rags flew through the air, a frightening wolf like howl resonating loudly from Fang. As men looked up in surprise, the small figure of Ayuban darted through the crowd, his fingers striking men at various points on their bodies. Most of the blows were not lethal and simply sent men sprawling to the ground with damaged nerves, others were not so fortunate. Once Fang had landed, claws began to swipe as blood began to fly.

Zero exitted the vehicle, twirling the revolver in his hand. He appeared casual at first, enjoying the show. That was of course, until the tires of Jack's care started hissing.

(Zero) "Shit. Minus."

Zero lifted his arm, firing in two separate directions. It would have seem ridiculous at first but the distinct sound of richochetting bullets and a spark that literally flashed inches from Xiadra's face made it seem less silly.

Through the fire and smoke she moved. The blackness filled her lungs and burned her eyes. It would be short of the front door that she would collide with a body. There, in a moment of crystal clarity, as if the smoke and debris were not present, she could see. It was not the touch of the body that had jostled her sense but a warm wet sensation at her fingertips. She had fallen over the form and felt it. Upon her hands and arms were the stained color crimson. As Erin finally looked down, she would gaze upon the corpse of her mother, sprawled out, with a gaping hole the size of a soccer ball where her chest was.
