Like Butter...

18 November 2010-

When last we left, Kevin was getting beat up, Jeff and Schmitty were on their way to help a poor bystander who got toasted, Craig and Bruce were getting ready to rumble, eMichael was getting ready to involve himself in the situation, Brian was hunkered down out of the line of fire (literally), and Bill was mostly just observing.

Then the bouncers turned into demons.

What had been a brutal bar fight became a much more brutal supers fight- Craig turned into a shadowy samurai, Bruce reappeared as a ghostly werewolf, Kevin manifested his mystic armor to keep himself alive, and everyone got busy on the demons. Bill grabbed one and hurled it through a wall, Craig slashed one into julienne fires, and Bruce did a textbook sidekick that blasted one in half (it reminded me of the Japanese Manga character Hokutonoken that my host-brother used to like). EMichael, now transformed into living ice, blasted a demon off Kevin, who was using lightning to hold them off. Meanwhile, Brian chased the witch into the back room, then summoned a horde of insects to chase her, but lost her trail. The normals in the room panicked, and ran back and forth until they found escape routes.

Once the final demons fell and the normals cleared, there were quick introductions all around, as we all determined that we were the good guys here, and would have to try and work together (a bit contrived, but it beat Craig and Bruce renewing their original fight, etc.). Bruce's Ghost Wolf disposed of the bodies, and we beat feet for Kevin's dojo before the cops arrived.
