Shadow the Hedgehog

Zamy pulled the leader out of the way of the knife just before it impacted him, instead it embedded in the ground a short distance away and exploded. "Might be a good time to stop showing off Zhadow," she pointed out, noticing the tendrils attacking his team.

"I don't know. Perhaps he thinks he'll get shot down," said Zamy before shoving Miles out of the way of the incoming blades, the other Zone Cops diving out the way with varyingly degrees of success, save for their leader who caught the knife heading for his face by the grip before tossing it to the ground with a scoff

"We've got more pressing concerns right now," said the lead Zone Cop as he aimed higher up on Melody. (OOC Petrification might be the best choice).

Zamy a nd the Zone Cops scrambled away, trying to avoid the explosions while still taking potshots at Melody.

Zamy swung her baton to try and deflect Melody, the other Zone Cop then fired at her.

"It's just a scratch," said Zamy as the Zone Cop next to her shot the tendril before ducking underneath the lightning ball. "This guy isn't kidding around. I doubt these lasers will punch through that shield around him," he said.

Zamy grabbed Ziona and Miles and pushed them away from the tendrils, only to get hit in the leg by one. At that moment there was a flash of light, as 4 more heavily armed Zone Cops appeared, the leader of which aimed and fired his pistol at Miles almost immediately as he ran over to his colleagues. "About time you guys got here," she said to him. (OOC Goodnight Dylan).

"I guess he dug up her corpse," muttered Zamy in reply as she looked at Dylan. "That backup would be real useful about now."

"Blank expression, monotone voice. That kind of 'something.."

"I'm fine. I don't know where he is, but I think he did something to Melody," replied Zamy before pulling out her baton in case she needed to deflect Melody's attacks.

Zamy breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Ziona and Dylan. "Thanks for coming you two. I'm guessing HQ is still prepping their team?"

"No. His plan would bring misery and suffering to everyone involved. He has a brighter future now."

"Because I've spent the last few hours trying to see if I can help him get a second chance, and I can. I'm not just going to hand him over," said Zamy.

Zamy was slighlty perplexed by Melody's off speech. There was clearly something else at work here. "I can't let you take him Melody. There's no way that's happening."

Looking back to see Melody leap, Zamy hit the deck, slowing dramatically but her momentum caused her to roll on the ground before she managed to regain her balance behind Melody, bruised but alive.

"Ok.... Darn it, Melody's after me. I've got to time this just right," said Zamy as she slowed her pace slightly.

"Honestly I'm not sure, but the older Miles mentioned to Melody that he was contemplating going back to his time to bring back Mina. I'm guessing we're still in the Prime Zone then."

"It's a lot more than I could do Miles," reassured Zamy. "Ok Ziona. Keep me updated."

Zamy kept skating onwards, hoping she'd outpace them for now. "I don't know where I am. The older version of Miles and Melody just abducted Miles and I. He was in the cell, a flash of light then were both somewhere else. Apparently he wants to possess this Miles' body and somehow bring Skye back to him. I think it goes without saying but I need backup. Preferably lots of it."

Zamy's radio crackled into life as Ziona's message came through. Seizing the moment she threw her handcuffs towards the older Miles in an attempt to make him pause, and shot forward, hoping to grab the younger one and get out of there.

Zamy gritted her teeth and slowly moved her hand away from her baton. She wouldn't solve anything blindly charging at them with such an inadequate tool for the job.

"I'm glad to disappoint you, but you're not changing anything."

"Don't worry, I'll gladly arrange a first hand experience."

"Don't give me that. Your so called 'discipline' only made him hate you. If he were here now he'd tear you limb from limb in an instant. And that time related problem has been resolved."

"After the abuse you put him through, you have no right to see him. He is no longer under you care. Deal with it."
