((I'll just start a new thread for when you guys are readying for him. That way ya'll can continue the other one, too, if wanted.))

Fontaine, for now, was near the outskirts of buildings near the southern end of the compound. He could see the greenhouse from where he stood in the shadows of the buildings he rested in. His eyes were half closed, but that was a deceiving expression at best. He was completely aware of his current surroundings to a tee.

It was an area people hardly ever, if ever, traversed. It was behind all the buildings, off the road, and pretty much lifeless and devoid of anything except the Obex's towering wall not too far away. And it was also opposite most of the places Fontaine had nabbed anyone from. Not that the criminal ever stayed in one place for long right now, and heaven forbid he was ever stupid enough to head back to his apartment. He didn't want to have to 'tango' with that stupid, mopey roommate of his if the cyborg caught on ( ... )

Gaz felt him, and her eyes, which were perfectly closed at first, now opened, and her look was nothing but serious. She looked at Selphie and motioned to her to come quietly, because she had no intention of losing him. In another life, it was possible Gaz could have been a great hunter and tracker: her moves could be quiet and quick, and detecting her was quite hard to do. Since Gaz found such a hobby stupid and demeaning to animals, so it was not a future for her. However, going after people she intended to make pay was certainly within her means, and she wanted to make use of it now ( ... )

Fontaine's first reaction was naturally enough to dodge whatever it was coming at him. He pushed off the wall with a strong, swift movement and began to weave and twirl with a flexibility and grace that belied his large stature. He was quite adequate in dodging the vine-like objects trying to wrap themselves around him, but the effort could last only so long before their relentless grasps twined around one of his limbs and halted his movement. Without full range of his motions the rest was inevitable: with a quickness that startled the Rapturite into silence only punctuated by one hard grunt, he was caught and held firmly in their tight grip ( ... )

Gaz waited. The fire, of course, did NOT harm her: while they were extension of herself, they were also a mind projection, and it would have taken a different sort of way to break those. In any case, what the person Gaz knew as Atlas was doing both intrigued and startled her: was he burning himself only to make sure they didn't get near him? That seemed pretty stupid. Of course, he probably had an idea of how angry Gaz was that he didn't want a beating at the girls' hands.

Of course, Gaz could prevent the flames from harming her and Selphie anyway. She could erect a barrier (it was her specialty) and then it would only be a matter of waiting. Gaz was, despite how angry she was, a very patient girl. If he wanted to continue barbecuing himself, well, she'd wait until he was exhausted. Hell, he'd buried her alive, hadn't he? She had plenty of time to think then, she was simply granting him the same favor.

"Be careful," She advised Selphie. "He's pretty hot."

Fontaine had no intention of immolating himself with his own flames. Indeed, though it looked quite painful the man truly felt nothing--or maybe that was an illusion, his own pride going before the fall. Either way, he showed nothing on the outside but bitter disgust for the girls in front of him.

Selphie's impulsive nature would be her bane one day. Today, it was going to be damn close. Though mostly bound, Frank managed enough movement with a hand and concentrated enough mentally to send a burst of flame reaching out towards the girl. This lessened the firestorm surrounding him as the flames leapt out in a relatively straight line towards Selphie, like a scorching tongue searching for prey, but that didn't really matter much. He wanted to strike out, and he did.

As for the nunchaku strike--there was no way for Fontaine to dodge. So long as Selphie's aim was true it hit squarely. But it seemingly had no effect. Fontaine had a thick hide thanks to his Tonics. It would take more than one physical attack to harm him visibly.

Gaz was ready fora counterstrike. Nobody had an ego like this guy without packing some big firepower, and he had demonstrated it to her before burying her. Gaz would not have attacked with a blunt weapon: she knew enough that he would concentrate his attack on her then. But that was his own fault. Selphie, after all, couldn't attack a man with fire he could control. Gaz, on the other hand, had a sharp memory. Besides Fontaine, she'd seen that Azula's chick's fire attack during the day of the Entropi's attack and had wondered how she'd deflect something like that. So she'd made sure her barrier could withstand flame ( ... )

((Should we bother to continue or not? :3))"It's not rough," Fontaine squeezed out past clenched teeth and a grunt as Selphie's nunchaku hit for another solid strike. It was the first sign of weakness that he showed; the fact that it was an effort to speak without letting out a moan due to pain. On the other hand, his stoic expression did not change and any other hint was not forthcoming. What he felt clearly wasn't going to phase him ( ... )

In truth, Gaz had been expecting something like that. Fontaine had been concentrating on Selphie, mostly because she was coming at him with the physical attacks, but it was only a matter of tome before he started to realize that Gaz's attacks would be far more devastating. This was, in truth, what Gaz wanted: she was trying to see exactly how powerful attacks against her would be. If they were weak enough, she would overtake him with her own Dark power: sure, it would leave her powerless for the next few days, but better that than one more maniac burying people around Econtra, right ( ... )
