Anthem of Destruction
[phone]
[So. Zombies. The moment Silence has left the house on his mission to locate Crowe and defend the others, Lucas is on the phone again, making a public call to the town.]
Everyone! If you don't know what we're about to face, these are zombies. Reanimated bodies of the dead. I know it doesn't make any sense, but you're going to have to believe me on this one. They're going to go around eating people, and if it happens, you're going to end up as a zombie, too. So. Um. ...Don't get eaten. [That had been how his zombies had worked, at least.] And if you have to fight, go for the head! The person whose world these are from... He says these ones are killed by destroying the brains. I'm going around to put up some shields. Let me know now if you'd like me to come by especially. Luke, Crowe, Rin, Tavros, Ness, Miss Taiwan, Mr. Netherlands, everyone.... Don't go out! Lock your rooms! Close the windows! ...Try to stay safe...
[action 1]
[And immediately after that, Lucas expressly disobeys Silence's instructions and bounds out the door, his pockets loaded with what he thinks might be helpful items. ...It was just like adventuring the wilds of Tazmily again. He'll pause just outside his house and concentrate, a glow beginning to emanate from his body.]
Shield Omega!
[And with a brilliant flash, the house on 846 Goldberg Street is happily floating in a teal bubble. Though he had no idea if it would actually keep zombies out of his home, he figured it was worth the effort. With a repeated cry of 'Shield Omega!', Lucas himself is encased in the bubble, as are any lucky neighbors within 100 feet. He jumps on his table and rides down his street and out into the town, continuing to cast his spell repeatedly, hoping to protect as many as he can. He'll especially be checking up on the houses of his friends.]
[action 2]
[Whoops. Looks like wandering around alone wasn't the best idea. Here's Lucas up against five or six zombies. His table, though non-organic, lies twitching underneath another small pile of zombies, and it appears he's in some dire straits. ...Thwack! The sound of a baseball bat smashing a zombie's head off its body marks the beginning of the battle. The enemies converge.]
[action 3]
[Well, one couldn't fight zombies all day on an empty stomach. Lucas, panting and exhausted, shows up in the DA's practice room in the late afternoon, both to take a break from the constant fighting and also to check if any of his friends had made it to safety. He'll stumble in the door, hoping he's not alone.]
