Olem grunted in pain, feeling a few of his ribs break, but continued to pump more and more of his anger filled power into him, images of tumours, rotting limbs, pus and internal bleeding flooding his mind as he held on to the boy. He coughed slightly, spraying some of his blood onto Thomas' face.

Taniel got up with her, keeping a hand on her to steady her. He sighed, closing his eyes beneath his hat.
"I'm" he paused, not trusting his words. He wasn't disapointed in her, especially after her explanation. But he didn't like how casually she used the life of another to save her own. "I'm not disapointed in you, you did what you needed to survive" he smiled slightly, but she couldn't see it under his hat. He started to look around, and witnessed The Redeemer kill the pervy old man, and Thomas fighting against Aurora and the scary old guy. "Should we deal with her? Or help the others?"

Aurora coughed blood onto the concrete beneath her. Her arm felt useless. Parasite had really done a number on her. She looked up through squinted eyes over at Olem and Thomas fighting. “Olem!” She pushed herself off the ground, blood pooling around her. 'I'm not sure how much longer I can hold out for...' She closed her eyes. Omen wasn't about to throw her life away to save some forgotten soldier.
Aurora though...
The pink-haired female conjured all her energy and threw her broken form into the fray. She grabbed hold of Olem's shirt and smiled for a second, her eyes returning to their normal blue. “I really do love you...” She whispered before grabbing hold of his back with all her concentration. She switched on her power and started to take every last bit of damage from him, and clung on in case of any more, though she was losing consciousness and a lot of blood.

Thomas was shocked and angered it hadn't thrown him off. He started to feel a rash spread under his hand; the immunity was holding off the worse symptoms. He phased through Olem, letting the man drop to the floor heavily. He moved to his feet quickly, pushing Aurora back with superhuman strength and transforming his foot into a viscous spiked monstrosity. It ripped his boot apart as Thomas threw kick at Olem's side which would throw him through the air if it connected. He needed to finish Olem off.

"AURORA!" Olem shouted, as he felt his ribs start to knit back together. He rolled away from Thomas as he dropped onto the floor, avoiding a thunderbolt of a kick. Aurora was badly bleeding, her eyes fluttering as she struggled for consciousness. He released an enormous fetid wave of energy as his anger spiked again, and he stood up, clenching his fists hard enough to draw blood. He wiped away the blood on his chin, and he stared at Thomas, cracking his neck. Does he grab Aurora and run? Get her to safety? Or attempt to kill Thomas? His stance softened, and he looked at where Aurora was on the floor, not quite sure what to do.

Aurora was torn off of Olem and skidded across the floor, her eyes turning black again as Omen won the battle for control. “Fucking love... doesn't save anyone. If you want to save someone, you've got to fight for it.” Aurora once again tried to pick herself off the floor. Her power was working overtime to try and stop the pain and shattered bones from affecting her, but the frame was too weak to support her body at this point. Aurora tried to stand as steady as she could.
“Leave. Him. Alone. OLEM, GET THE FUCK OUT OF HERE.” Aurora concentrated on walking towards Parasite.
'Fuck you Aurora, this is how we die. Fighting for your stupid emotions.'
Though Aurora's original personality was already out-cold.

Parasite was on alert, phasing ready in case a surprise came for him. The voices in his head were fighting, telling him not to kill these people. He squared off with them, thinking. He'd have to break Olem. He was too stubborn to give up. Wait, he should kill them. Take their powers. The voices weren't letting him though. He clutched his head as spikes morphed out of his body.
He growled, deciding with one to kill first.

As Olem stared at the floor, he came up with a plan. He jogged up next to Aurora, and scooped her up, carrying her in his arms. "Right, you're injured, I'm outmatched and The Redeemer is still here in case we beat his pet nutjob, I believe it is the time for a tactical withdrawal" he said, looking at her squirm in his arms, spitting curses at him. With a one fingered salute, Olem turned away from Thomas and headed out away from Trafalgar Square, back towards the University.
(OOC: I have Aurora's permission to pull that stunt)

"Oh no, you don't," Thomas growled, intending to chase them. He started to run forward but then it felt a horrible sharp pain inn his skull.
'No, we won't kill her. You can't!' Thomas jerked aroundm his skull splitting. The voices of his victims were screaming in his head but one was greater. A girl, with a sad voice. Desperate. Lonely. Signe. He tried to hold himself together; he couldn't show weakness, but he stopped running, trying to get a hold of himself again.
He growled and transformed into a bird, shooting upwards to a nearby building. He needed to ask the Redeemer about thos! But in this state... ihe'd probably get killed. He fell onto the building and twitched, listening to the voices cascade over him.

Margarita looked at Taniel and shook her head. "This little fire trick took too much of my energy. I am going to find the Redeemer and tell him that one of the Olympus heroes is down for now.". She let go off him and walked towards where The Redeemer was. She thought of the girl whose life she threatened and thought her conscious would torture her. But strangely Margarita didn't feel sorry; she didn't feel guilty. After all nothing bad happened and she defeated the hero. That's all that mattered.

Herbert looked down at the body of Nathan, twitching. His eyes were leaking, he was trying to keep himself steady. He couldn't just be gone. He looked up to the Redeemer, where he was looking at him. Waiting.
"He meant everything to me!" Herbert roared, surging forward and igniting the electricity around him. His anger connected perfectly with his uncle and father's abilities and he flew forward off the ground at incredible speeds, wrapping himself in electricity. A human cannonball of incredible power heading straight for the Redeemer.

The Redeemer paused, shocked for the first time in a while as Herbert raced towards him. Before the Redeemer could react he was slammed away, lightning bouncing off his armour. He slammed into the ground and the lighting on his suit flickered briefly. The Redeemer growled, his vision blurred, as his anger exploded.
He pushed himself up, his armour smoking from the force of the blow. 'Come on then!' he roared. He teleported to Herbert in an instance, punching him across the face and quickly aiming another blow to Herbert's stomach.

Herbert took the blow; it snapped his head back and he knew he must have some ability that just ensured his head hadn't been blown off by the superhuman strength (OOC: It's Aurora's durability). Another blow went for his stomach, but with his churning emotional state he managed to activate his mother's ability. He saw it coming in slow motions and dodged around it, bringing his other fist towards the Redeemer. He charged it with a huge crackling ball of electricity, so the air fizzled around it, and sent it straight for the Redeemer shoulder. He needed to break that armour.

The Redeemer saw the blow approaching, but it was as fast as lightning. He dodged it just about, and the blow glanced off his shoulder. Sparks erupted everywhere but the Redeemer only shifted back, his super strength keeping him from falling off his feet. He roared again, his purple eye lenses burning with light. He moved forward, using time to speed up his own blows, and aimed a knee straight at Herbert's stomach again, with the intention to follow it with an almighty uppercut.

Herbert knew he was out of his league when it came to close combat. His reflexes were still active; he managed to see the knee coming and decided to create some distance. He held out his hands and found the electromagnetic current running through the Redeemer's armour. Maybe he could do something with it, maybe not, but he wasn't focused on that. He swiped his hands outwards, sending out a wave that pushed off the electromagnetic particles in the metal and throwing himself away from the Redeemer. He went sailing back 15 feet and skidded to a halt. He needed to play smart, use all the powers he had.
The anger, the desire to fight brought Chis to mind. He took a deep breath and used those emotions to steer the right way and an energy aura sparked around his body.
