Flying Saucers and Zombies, Sixton City Limits

[Dracos]

Alarms quickly began to ring.

[Halbarad]

Phil grimaces at the alarms, but begins working quickly. Firecrackers, strategically placed....

His work done, he lights the fuse. "Get moving, Jade! They're going off!"

[Zenthor]

Jade frowns.  Just as it was getting fun.  But things were about to explode soon, so she beat a robot one last time with her stick for effect, and ran the hell away from the tower.

[Halbarad]

Phil beats a hasty retreat as well, heading for the nearest cover he can find. He's fairly sure the tower will go down at this point, but which way it'll fall is anyone's guess.

[Dracos]

They hear a shout 'Close your eyes!'

Seconds later a blinding flash fills the area.

[Halbarad]

Phil throws up an arm to shield his eyes from the brilliant blaze of light.

[Zenthor]

Jade quickly covers her eyes as well with one hand, waving her stick around with the other to make sure she doesn't run into anything.

[Dracos]

The two ran off eyes slightly tinged but mostly safe as they moved past the UFOs.  Were they running all the way free?

[Brian]

Thankfully unblinded, Liao speeds in front of Jade and Phil.  "This way!" he says.  "How did you guys do?"

[Halbarad]

"We'll know in a minute!" Phil shouts back, blinking furiously to clear the afterimages from his vision. "Those firecrackers should take the tower out completely in a few seconds!"

[Brian]

Liao beams a smile at his friends, suddenly very glad he didn't try and sabotage the tower further while they led the robots off.

[Dracos]

The explosions followed...and stopping would be a poor idea as if they glanced back, they could see the radio tower falling towards them.

[Brian]

"Quick, let's run faster," Liao says, trying to utilize his technique to carry everyone (or at least, everyone else) to safety before the tower crashes down.  Did that thing get taller while they were fleeing?  Probably.

Stupid aliens.

[Dracos]

As the shadow came down on them, the pitter-patter of their feet rushing away from the doom that awaited them seemed louder and louder, the seconds lengthening before space seemed to twist...

and they found themselves running towards a collection of trees!

Dracos
Moving to another thread.

[Dracos]

With a zoom...they returned at the outskirts of sixton.
