Any normal person would have gone down after the spray of gel-bullets Lapine sent at this guy. And for a moment, so does this one, slumping against the wall and sliding down it but when the other two round the corner and start walking, the shot man stands and follows the new man and woman in eerie lock-step.<br/><br/>Then a few feet into the hallway, they all jump in unison; the arc too impossible to be done by 'ware and too janky to be an Adept power. So some kind of spell then, and a nasty one as it closes all but a scant handful of meters for them.<br/><br/>Fortunately, that also puts them into Leon's range; not a gunshot as he probably should have done, but a spell done on instinct. A wave of mana gets directed into the guy that Lapine shot and almost secures a kill as the powerbolt ravages his body.
