Gabriel smiled, they were all proving to be quit useful now, even the cynical thoughts about Matrim. Gabriel didn't laugh and didn't move when the call was rallied instead he walked over to a wall and pulled loose the socket from the wall. A bit of fun was to be had before this powerhouse was to be taken out and at this moment he had the advantage on the side of numbers and strength. Sara, Matrim and Travis all great warriors in their own right, he'd be damned to be let out of this brawl.
An electric shock fired up his right arm the glove concealing his injured limb created a magnified effect from the static electricity flowing through it. Damn thats smarts, it hurt a bit surging through the vice in his glove the energy still charging slightly. Pacing himself across to the podium slowly dragging a long extension cord around his palm he came to make a swift movement here and now.
"Need a hand." Gabriel's eyes glowered gold as he rushed the teacher sending a voltage of electric energy towards his gut.

Adrian, who had been sitting next to Matrim, got to his feet as Travis took his initial leap onto the stage. He groaned, loudly and outwardly.
"Fucking morons."
Here, Adrian, quite possibly one of the least intelligent people in the room, or so he thought, and yet even he knew the wisdom in not throwing yourself blindly at someone who seemed to have telekinetic fucking powers. He shook his head, seeing himself in Travis.
If this is the path you take when you refuse to think past your fists, maybe I've been on the wrong road all along.
Matrim leapt up to intercept Travis, and Damien would almost certainly join in the fight. Adrian, therefore, realized that, not being as strong as the other two pillars in the auditorium, would have his services best rendered elsewhere. He walked into the middle of the auditorium, expanding upon Matrim's last words as he address all those who hadn't yet joined in on the attack.
"Matrim's right, guys. Let's make this as painless as possible, alright? These two," Adrian gestured towards Travis and Sara, "Are doing their absolute best to ruin Moral Crest for all of us. This is exactly what this guy was hoping to see. People thinking with their fists instead of their heads. How about the rest of us do the opposite? We're not going to win this battle with weapons, we're going to win it with words. So how about we just just all get together and sit down in these back few rows, alright? The pillars and Mr. Purple will handle the detractors, and when the smoke clears, they'll see us choosing not to participate in violence and bloodshed. It'll make a hell of an impression. So who's with me?"
((Mild Charisma Check on all those who aren't fighting.))
After the rest of the establishment had decided to be seated or not, Adrian nodded to them all. "Stay here. I've got an idea, believe it or not." He smirked, despite himself, and turned and headed up to the stage. In the midst of all the commotion, it was likely he wouldn't even be seen as he darted past the side, behind the stage and up the stairs to the light and sound booth. From there, he was above the battle. He looked at the lights, studying the diagram of which buttons controlled which. After getting the gist of it, Adrian flipped a switch, shining one of the floodlights directly onto Travis, likely blinding him by the suddenly bright light all up in his face. Thankfully, the light was to Matrim's back, so only Travis would be affected by it.
With that done, Adrian wasted no time getting away from the light booth. He'd rather no one see him up there when they realized what happened. Instead of coming down, however, he clambered over the upper catwalks, coming to some sandbags that held up other lights. Reaching up, Adrian untied one of the lights, causing the sandbag to be over-weighted and fall to the ground.
Only instead of the ground, it would fall directly onto the fallen Sara Quinn. The heavy bag would hopefully be enough to knock her out, and put her out of the fight entirely.
Adrian would then make his way back down to the auditorium seating, hoping his little intervention was enough to ensure the tide stayed in the favor of Purple and the Pillars.

I braced myself for another attack, but it was intercepted... by Matrim!
"This guys extremely strong Mr. Purple, it'd be best to avoid getting hit by him...."
This was all going brilliantly... The pillars had my back! With the only support system of the school backing me as well, there was nothing that could stop me. I would show Black. If we had the pillars willing to work with us then there was nothing the student body would be able to do, my schedules would stay in place, at least until testing was over.
Dance puppets.... Dance.
Well I couldn't really call them puppets. They were helping me of their own free will. The Pillars were more like Loyalists. They understood that by extension, I was a part of the school and they had to protect me. Truthfully it made me feel all warm and fuzzy inside.
I had the two locks still circling me... I noticed out of the remaining students a few were missing.
"Need a hand."
I turned my attention to the boy as a jolt of electricity came from him. I Quickly moved my hand forward, holding back the young man's Qi with my own. With in a split second of our temporary struggle for Qi dominance, I launched both locks that were circling me toward the young man, sending them straight through his own electricity. These metal locks would now be used as conductors once they made contact with the boy's body. He could dish out the light show, but could he take it?
Without those damned locks in my control now, I had all of my points at my disposal.

"Students and Teachers of Moral Crest, this is Mr. Purple with an announcement. From this day forward, school runs not only Monday threw Friday, but now includes the previously excluded weekend days of Saturday and Sunday. Due to falling test scores and lack of improvement by both the student body and the staff giving instruction, the decision has been made to increase the school week to include all seven days of the week. I would apologize for this inconvenience, but I am through with this lack of respect and moral discipline for the Education System. So although it is Friday, keep in mind that school will be in session tomorrow as well. If any are interested, there is a meeting about the new scheduling in the auditorium." Ryuu wasn't even sure why he was here. He had walked into the auditorium, his hands in the pockets of his hoodie, a crowd of people greeted him. Ryuu stood against the wall, facing the side of bleachers, giving him a good view of the entire bleachers, which was filled with students. Ryuu, for the most part, had kept silent throughout the entire situation, even when he had seen the podium being thrown, Sara tossing the lock at Mr. Purple, Mr. Purple using his Qi to toss the lock back at Sara who dodged it unintentionally, Sara tossing another lock, Gabriel using his Qi to send what looked like a jolt of electricity at Mr. Purple, EVERYTHING.
But to be honest, who keeps this calm in such a situation. Ryuu did, apparently. Pushing off from the wall, Ryuu walked towards the first row of bleachers, and began to climb up, before standing beside Emily, nodding in acknowledgment at Trizen, who was standing, as he calmly folded his arms across his chest. "I'm not exactly thrilled about being forced to come to school on my two free days," Ryuu muttered softly to Emily, all the while, staring straight ahead at the spectacle, "So the question is, what do we do about it?" He saw Mr. Purple use his Qi and send the two locks that had been circling around him hurtling straight at Gabriel, the metal making contact with Gabriel's Qi, becoming a conductor the minute it would touch Gabriel. Ryuu's eyes however, flashed in mild shock, as he saw a spotlight begin to shine suddenly, probably blinding the guy it was directed at, and right after, a weighted sandbag fell from above, hurtling straight for... "Sara..." Ryuu muttered, his eyes returning to normal. Crazy Sara is crazy. This was getting out of hand.
"If you have any ideas, now would be a great time to use them." This was directed at both Emily and Trizen. "Because this has to end... It can't go on..."

Well, it was a good thing those regulation boots Travis wore were nice and thick, because MATRIM of all people wanted to try and be the hero here. This mother fucker just didn't know when to back off. First he fucked his girlfriend, and then to top it all off he gets kicked out of Reira's house because of this dude. If he was smart, he would have tried to avoid Travis. But no, instead he just seemed to be pushing him. It was obvious he had some kind of death wish. And if he kept butting into Travis' business, he was going to be killed alright.
Sorry to interrupt, but you are to end this fighting and leave this place NOW!
"Get the fuck out of here Matrim.. I'm really not in the mood to deal with your ass right now!"
So it seemed his assault on the other male was going to have to wait. Unfortunately for Matrim, he didn't have the strength to hold Travis in place. Travis' leg muscles would tense, and his left foot would push off the ground, as Travis would force himself into a back flip and rip his leg from Matrim's grasp with ease. And as he moved into that back flip, Travis' left leg which pushed off would become a tool to dish out damage, as that greenish wind whipped up around Travis' body and his left foot looked to collide with Matrim's midsection. He doubted he'd miss, and whether the boy blocked it or not, he wasn't going to be able to stop himself from flying backwards and hitting the wall at the other end of the stage.
Travis would have ended up back flipping off the stage, and landing in a crouch when all of the sudden a blinding light would settle upon him. He'd grit his teeth as he squinted his eyes and lifted his hands up to cover his face for the moment. He didn't know what the hell was happening, at least not right away. But he quickly relealized it was one of the lights, and if that was the case then he had a trick of his own up his sleeve. Well, not really up his sleeve but they were currently resting on top of his head. Yup, those goggles Travis had for riding his motorcycle were tinted for those beautiful sunny day rides! Lucky him. Dropping those sun glass-like goggles down over his eyes, Travis would grin as he looked up toward the stage, toward Mr. Purple and Gabriel.
No one here is going to tell me what to do.. Especially that douche bag Matrim.

Sara didn't know what was happening. She had been flung, and landed hard, the pain exploding up her leg. She cried out loudly, her eyes closing, mind going blank against the pain. She had no idea what was happening as she rolled from side to side, whimpering in pain. She may have passed out at some point, because she only felt like she had been laying there for a few moments when something heavy dropped onto her stomach. The wind was knocked from her and she gasped trying to catch her breath. Her eyes were wide, but unseeing as she tried to work through everything, fighting to keep conscious.
She was so confused. She didn't know what was happening. She didn't know she wanted to know. Slowly, she came back, becoming slowly more and more aware of what was happening around her. Her muscles were locked, she couldn't bring herself to move. It was like all her nerves were dead. She didn't feel the pain from her knee until she was almost all the way back to reality. Finally, she drew a deep shuddering breath. OK... This wasn't so bad...
She tried to sit up, her eyes looking wildly around to see what was happening. Crap! Where was Travis?! Shit... Where the hell did he go!? She was worried. He had been flung with her, but with the pain in her knee and stuff she really had idea where he had gone after that. Her eyes fell to the stage to see Travis activate his qi. She breathed a sigh of relief, and then her eyes hardened. Who the hell did he think he was stepping in!? If she hadn't let him interfere in her battles before, what made him think he had a right to now!?
She looked to the closest wall, and began slowly pulling herself across the floor towards it. Her knee and now her whole torso was screaming in pain. This was going to be very slow going... Dammit...

Gabriel smirked at getting the moment of surprise and the ability to have gotten close enough to the manic with the intense power. Gabriel jolted at him with his strong ability, it was so new, so consuming that even when Mr. Purple used it against Gabriel he got a sick thrill off of seeing it being used to its full potential trying to focus he found a slight evasion but the locks were getting nearer and his hair stood on end as the volts increased their proximity.
He needed to hold strong if even for just a few moments longer someone would surely step in, The locks were on him now sending a multiplied magnetic charge through his bones. The arm didn't help it merely made him and even weaker target to them. Cringing Gabriel dropped to a knee forcing what he could back, no wails of pain this time. He bit down on his jaw a short rush of blood escaping his lips through a smile.
Just another second.
tick tock, tick tock.

I kept my attention on the lightning powered student, who was now getting a taste of his own medicine. Damned kid tried to cook me! This was most definitely going down in my report. I dropped complete control over the locks, and turned my complete and undivided focus onto Gabriel. With my Qi I lifted him up, and tossed the poor bleeding bastard like a used battery... I needed a new one.
"Children don't you see that it is all pointless to fight a system that works? Even if you succeeded in attacking me here and now, what would it prove? Nothing but that I was correct."
I began to watch for any students in the audience that were scuffling. I was pretty sure that the major attacks were over, well, considering that the crazy crippled girl and the battery were both pretty much done. Only one student remained as my opposition, Travis. From what I gathered from Matrim, this boy was quite strong... Almost as strong as my associate it would seem, however, my bet was still on Orange if it ever came down to a fight.

The kick missed but caused Matrim to fall back to dodge it. Travis back-flipped off of the stage and Matrim fell back on his ass, he would have been able to step back but his foot was caught on the bit of floor he had been pushed through. His hands went limp at the side of his body for now, looking at Travis who appeared to do nothing other than look back up towards the stage. Matrim's attention went to Gabriel as he pushed himself up, burning the floor where he touched it and hurting his hand when putting weight on it. He stumbled up and looked over to the kid being beaten by Purple.
"He's done...." Matrim said, "He's out of this fight...... take a good look!" Matrim yelled at Travis, "Because as far as I'm concerned, you and whoever the hell," Matrim said looking back to the stage to see that it was Sara. Part of him was confused, another part angry, "Travis, take Sara and get out of here. Now."
He then looked up to Emily and the rest of the kids up there, "Take Gabriel, and get out of here, now. Wait until he stops being shocked by his own Qi if you have to. This fight is over!" He yelled. Getting angry. He looked over at Purple and Damien. "Damien back me up here bro, and Purple, way to hold your own. I'm kind of jealous I didn't get to spar with you myself sometime.... sorry, bit of a fighter on the inside I guess." He said with a smile on his face.

Travis, take Sara and get out of here. Now.
"Don't you DARE tell me what to do, Matrim. You're the last person in the world that I'd listen to. And Sara is a big girl.. She can take care of herself."
Travis' eyes narrowed quite a bit behind those goggles. He wasn't about to listen to that prick, no way in hell. He didn't give a shit if he was a pillar, he didn't care one bit about that. Matrim was a piece of shit in his mind, and always would be. There would never be a day in his lift that he'd actually listen to the words that came out of his mouth. In fact, he really wanted to beat him into a bloody pulp. The only thing stopping him was his friendship with Reira. He'd glance over toward Sara, and shake his head slightly.
One of these days though.. I'm gonna catch you alone, and no one is going to stop me from ripping you apart, Matrim.. You've ruined far too much for me.
His hands would lift, and Travis would straighten up as they placed themselves at the back of his neck. What everyone here didn't seem to realize, was that Travis HATED when someone tried to tell him to do something. No one had control over Travis, but Travis himself. He wasn't going to do anything unless he wanted to do it.
And there was no way in hell he was going to leave this auditorium unless someone forced him to. And by the looks of the people in the room, no one here was going to be able to do it. Except maybe Mr. Purple. But even then Travis really wouldn't go down without a fight. He'd glance down at that boot which had been burned by that flaming Qi Matrim had. For now he wouldn't make a move, but that greenish wind still swirled about his body as he stood there, waiting to see what happened.
"If you really think you have what it takes to remove me, Matrim.. Come try. It would be fun to embarrass you in front of everyone.."

The pain was unbearable but yet Gabriel held on against his own power, the force of it was incredible, the surging power he could see it's potential and dreamed of far surpassing it though he'd need to work at it with intensity. This fight would be over too quickly not even enough support now was not the time to be going all out. The volts seared the flesh around Gabriel's right eye leaving a slight scar, a burn of sorts. A whisk of energy sent Gabriel flying off into the wall hitting it with a thud as the complacent Mr. Purple resumed his duties. Gabriel lie there at the ground with his eye fixed on Travis and Matrim, the animosity made him think sinister things. He didn't care much for Matrim especially when someone preached power yet restrained it so much. It was hypocrisy and Gabriel wanted the full power, as for Travis, the man could see far more potential within the man. Power unrestrained, though something looked to be holding him back, an invisible weight perhaps.
Gabriel stood a limping figure he was not out yet, there was still something to salvage here. "Travis, I think he's ordering you about... I think he believes himself to be your master..." Gabriel said with the corners of his mouth turning up.
Without another word he limped over towards Sara and looked over her damages.

It seemed all too clear what needed to be done... As an individual, I knew where my place in battle was, and as fate would have it, the two parties I respected the most had joined as one- Purple and the Pillars. With nothing left to do but to join, I would walk to Matrim's side, to stand by him as a Pillar and as a protector of these school grounds.
Travis was still at it, but I doubted he could persist much longer. His attacks were easily repelled by the odd energy controlled by Purple, so I worried not about him.
"Travis, I think he's ordering you about... I think he believes himself to be your master..."
Hahaha, oh wow, was Gabriel really that much of a fucking bitch? With a curved grin of my own, my elbow nudged that of Matrim.
"Well Matrim, looks like Mister Seran is trying to get Travis to do what he can't... Poor little clipped birdy... Can barely tweet, let alone fly." My hands rested on my hips. "So, how bout this...?" I adressed both Matrim and Purple. "We finish business here, clean out the auditorium, and go get some lunch... Sound nice?"
And so, between these two is where I would stand- alongside the one believed to be the school's enemy and a fellow brother-in-arms.
Time for the show to begin.

Sara had managed to reach the wall after what felt like crawling for hours. Her whole body hurt. She knew she needed to get out of here, but she wasn't getting out alone. Even Sara, who never gave up, was forced to admit that one. Her crutches were no where near her, and she didn't think she was walking out of here without them. She hated to admit it, but she needed help.
She turned herself, leaning back against the wall, breathing heavily. She closed her eyes as she tried to catch her breath. This really wasn't working. She had no idea what was going on because she was so intent on keeping herself out of the way of the students running around, and trying not to hurt her leg anymore then it was. And to top it all off, she was in deep pain. There had to be someone in here that would help her. Someone. But probably not...
Ok... Here we go... She pushed her back against the wall and began to try to get herself standing, slowly shimmying her way up the wall, using her hands to try to pull herself up on the flat surface. She felt like such an idiot doing this, but what else could she do? She wasn't about to sit there and wait for someone.
Finally, she was standing. She leaned heavily against the wall now, her arm wrapped around her stomach as she balanced on her uninjured leg. OK... Now what...? She realized all she could really do was hop. She tested out her leg, letting out a small whimper of pain as she put some weight on it. No... This wasn't happening- UFF... Someone knocked into her, sending her dropping to the ground, landing on her chest. She rolled onto her side, trying to push herself up to see who. It didn't really matter though, because it wasn't like she could fight them over it. She needed to get out of here. NOW.
And then Gabriel was there. She turned her head, smiling up at him, a sigh of relief coming from her. She listened to what he said to Travis. Nice... Get him pissed and this might work... Until she realized he was injured pretty badly to... She wondered what the hell had happened to him. Her eyes narrowed as she stared. Her gaze moved over to Travis, and she thought she knew what he was thinking. HA. She wanted to laugh at the idea. But if he thought Travis would be an asset to the... group? Then he was right. If they could get Travis, it might work.
Gabriel turned and walked towards Sara. This wasn't good. As he approached, she looked up to him. "Gabriel, we need to get out of here... We're not going to win this one. We need to go before it gets any worse for us. We'll have to try again later." Without waiting to see what he had to say, she turned to Travis. What she was about to do probably wouldn't end well, but she had to try. The three of them needed to get out of here. "Travis! Travis, common... Get over here and help me." She let her eyes water up. She would have gone all girly to make him come to her, but even now, in her... upset mind... she wasn't that cruel. And he wouldn't believe it anyways. So she settled for big, watery eyes. "We have to get out of here Travis... Please..."
=_= He sooo better not deny her... D< That would NOT make a happy Sara.

Stu watched as the students started their attacks towards this Purple guy. He wasn't as emotionally invested in the school as the rest of them, but he wasn't about to let all these kids be let loose on the town.
He walked forwards, unslinging the shotgun from his back. He was running low on ammo, so he would have to make sure that all of his shots were worth it.
He moved quietly, quite easy due to the racous oral attacks from all the students yelling at each other. He watched as Gabriel was thrown, smashing into the wall, Sara following. Stu gasped... he really like her, she was a good friend.
Oh no, that bastard did NOT just hurt two of his friends.
Stu chambered the round silently, the sound still not above that of the arguing students. He walked onto the stage on Purple's right, and towards Sara. He held the gun towards Purple, as he stalked over to Sara.
He offered a hand, his gun aiming towards Purple still.
"Lets go. We can't fight him, no one's strong enough and none of you are on the same side."
Should Purple make a movement towards him, he would fire. It wouldn't matter how fast that bastard was, the velocity of the projectiles as well as the spread would cause him to take some damage.
Stu wasn't caring about anyone else. He wished he could help Adrian, but he seemed in control of what he wanted to do. He wasn't looking for violence, and neither was Stu; he only cared about getting his friends out alive.

I raised a brow as I heard talking over in the direction of the cripple. Much to my surprise, I was greeted with a shot gun barrel smiling at me.
"Children shouldn't play with guns." I taunted knowing full well that he may fire. This was priceless, it wasn't everyday that someone had the balls to pull a gun on me. I chuckled a bit... clearly this student had not been here the whole time. Rejecting the force of projectiles was kind of my specialty. I could only smile as I thought of what should happen if he fired the gun. I figured by now these kids would have figured my Qi out by now, yet again it seemed I gave a bit too much credit to children in the public school system.
"So is that it?... You may all leave now. It seems the Pillars are more than capable of keeping the student body in check. Well, that and I am rather disappointed... I heard this school was filled with violent lil' monsters. Turns out they are not all that they were chalked up to be. Pity, I thought this school at least had violent monsters going for it."
