"NOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!" Susanne cried as she watched the building Meredith had been thrown into explode. She felt numb for a moment, then her gaze shot to Nyx. "You bitch!" She cried as she charged Nyx. She hardly felt the fireball that hit her, though it knocked her back a few feet. Her aura flared brightly, the chocolate sparking purple. She brought her hands together and began forming the ki-ball to throw at Nyx. To hell with killing her slowly and making her suffer. Susanne just wanted her dead.

"Look!" she heard Kristsi cry, and for whatever reason, Susanne did. She froze and looked...

*Meredith...* Susanne thought. *She's alive!* She hardly heard what the others said. She saw the man setting her down and ran to her.

"Meredith! Mere, wake up!! Get up, please!"

Her friend stirred fractionally.

"Dammit, everytime I try to talk to you, I have to wake you up!" She looked at Meredith... surely the explosion would have left some mark... but there was not a bruise or cut on her. She looked for all the world to be taking a quick nap.

"Hmm... who was that fine guy?" Meredith mumbled as she awoke.

Susanne grinned and turned to see what everyone else was doing. She shuddered when she saw Celly laying down the road a ways. *I don't even wanna think about that now...* She could sense the others nearby, though they were no longer in sight... yes, even Remy was there somewhere.

She wiped her hand over her forehead and grimmaced to see it come away streaked with red.

"Come on," she said as she stood shakily. "The best thing would probably be to find Kristsi and Anaera and our Guardians and get the hell out of Dodge, before anything else happens."
