There was a flare of light, and Liam raised his hand, light blossoming from it as he looked around.  The mist coiled slightly away, and he shook his head.<strong>"Priority one is to not panic, everyone,"</strong>he said, looking pointedly at Nikolai.<strong>"I for one know I'm not going to be leaving everyone behind, and anyone that wants to stay behind is more than welcome to do so.  No sweat off my brow, and no love lost,"</strong>he said, grunting slightly at the mist.<br/><br/>He snorted slightly, and then glanced at his own watch.  He shook his head.<strong>"Mine's fritzed too.  Think it might be this damned mist,"</strong>he said, jerking his head at the mist that recoiled from the edges of his light.  His brow furrowed for a moment, and then he nodded.<br/><br/>Of course, he stopped at the flapping sound, and looked up, his eyes squinting slightly.<strong>"Hmm.  What was that, I wonder?"</strong>he murmured, and his right hand instinctively went to the handle of his gunblade, forefinger resting on the trigger guard.  Looking back around them, he nodded.<strong>"Felicia is right, though.  We should get somewhere defensible."</strong><br/><br/><em>Though I don't think it'll do any good, if the rest of the creatures in this city are as strong as that one was.</em>
