Piff!
The bouncing spools suddenly go awry and shatter apart, releasing the golden thread that was winding its way around the restaurant patrons and constricting to cut them. It falls slack, but there are several people severely injured by the strands that have dug into their flesh that require immediate medical help.
As if that weren't enough trouble, thick vines begin growing from the floor, sprouting beans, and pushing upon the ceiling. The vines drop their beans to the floor, and they too begin sprouting new vines.... The room is quickly filling up with the vines and the walls and ceiling won't be able to handle the stress upon them.
-----
High above the Roaring 20's club Oldschool tries to choke out the Rhino but is unsuccessful... They continue to plummet towards the ground at increasing speeds towards terminal velocity. Flashdance teleports into the air next to them and watches them descend as they're falling faster than him....
-----
Vendetta is surprised by how fast the Dwarf is. The Dwarf charges into him, shoulderblocking him in the abdomen and pushing him out of the doorway of the club. Vendetta is not damaged by the hit. The Dwarf says "I told you you're not coming in here!"
-----
Rin tries to concentrate on the Dwarf to put him to sleep, but the attempt fails. It's as if the Dwarf has no mind or is immune to the attempt. A voice in Rin's head says...
**He is a dreamlander...**
-----
Solo teleports back into the Roaring 20's club to see tangling vines sprout from the floor and begin to push against the ceiling. They seem to grow thicker and taller, quickly filling the restaurant area. It is apparent that if they continue to grow they will cause the building to collapse.
Next to Solo, two figures in skull masks and red and blue [the Bros. Grimm] taunt him. "What did you do with the Frankenstein's Monster? No matter... you're all going to die when my beans continue to sprout and grow new vines! The Faces of Fear rule this city! Death to all that serve Hammerhead!"
-----
Elixir tries to use his powers to dissolve the strands of the sharp golden thread tormenting the restaurant patrons, but all is happening too fast. Old Joe leads him through the kitchen and into the back alley into a waiting car, then gets in with him.
"Let's see that paper that bitch shoved in my mouth..." Old Joe says as he unfolds it. "Huh. The Faces of Fear want to issue an ultimatum to Mr. H. hisself. That'll be the day. You don't come up in his club and trash the place and expect he'll do business. Says here they got some kinda book that can bring worse upon him if he don't pay up a million dollars. Yeah, right, a friggin' book?"
"Joe, didja see that guy from the TV, that blue robot guy. He's supposed to be working with that Oldschool guy that Mr. H bought off to leave things alone. I don't guess he lissens too well. Mr. H'll probably want us to pay those bums a visit again."
Another thug says "Yeah, that Oldschool guy, his robot pal... all of them are in on this Faces of Fear thing. Definitely gonna have to crack some skulls."
Old Joe silences the others in the car with a dismissing wave of his hand. "We don't know what we don't know. Looked to me like some of them people that appeared out of no where was fighting the others that appeared out of no where. Definitely gonna have to check all of this out."
Turning to Elixir, Old Joe says "You keep handling yourself well and you'll go far with this crew. Now, tomorrow we gotta pick up a big shot from the Midwest at the airport. A guy named Sam Evans. He'll need some bodyguards. Going to a poker game with Mr. H. I'll be there to introduce you. If you're straight with what you said about getting into the family, that'll be the best place to show you can be trusted." Then his tone turns sour. "You handle yourself well, jumping on them capes, but if you mess this up, I'll cap you myself."
[to be continued in Chapter 10]

Ferine communes with the animal spirits, and she feels her connection to the Red deepen. In a near-trance like state, she hears the whispers of the African shaman from so long ago... Instead of merely mimicking the traits and abilities of animals, Ferine feels herself becoming a giant harpy eagle.... her arms become wings... her legs end in grasping talons.... the transformation ends and she is a giant harpy eagle... all human features are gone... the voice of the shaman whispers a lesson in her mind... "take care not to hold the true form of the animals for too long, lest you permanently transform... the Red is fickle with its power..."
Ferine looks above her with keen eyes, and sees Oldschool and the Rhino flailing upon each other as they fall, and above them, Flashdance appears... skydiving towards them....

Continued point of view notes: Vendetta despite being shoved out of the club by the Dwarf did notice Ferine transform into a human sized harpy eagle. Ferine - Oldschool and the Rhino are falling, accelerating towards terminal velocity speeds. They will hit the ground, hard, in two rounds unless caught in mid-air. There's a great enough difficulty in that to make it look superheroic to pull off... if the dice love you ![:P](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/tongue.png) Elixir can continue dialogue with Old Joe and the other Hammerhead goons in the car with him. They are going to drop Elixir off at a subway entrance to end the current scene. The mention of "Sam Evans" makes the strange stone in his pocket seem to vibrate. Everyone else sees the club filling up with vegetation and vines... the building is going to collapse under the stress. Hammerhead's goons have split. The Brothers Grimm remain, as do the wounded restaurant patrons.

Solo looks at the two costumed jokesters, aiming his two guns at the two characters head, ready, to take them out, "Everybody get out NOW!", he yells not looking at the patrons of the esteblishment, "And you two stop your little Jack Giantkiller crap and make those vines stop to grow, or there wont be a Happily ever for, for you two!" ,Solo waits for their response, ready for them to make theri move.

The Brothers Grimm are taken aback by Solo's sudden appearance in front of them, but giggle...
"The teleporter! He'll be useful to us, and he had the red amulet! Get him!"
The Brothers Grimm cup their hands beneath their chins and blow a glittery, sparkling powdery dust at Solo....

"Out of the razor sharp threads and into the strangling vine things just doesn't have that much ring to it."
Now, what do I do with these things. I'm not even sure what sonic energy will do to these things, but I have to at least try.
With this, Shockwave gives a sonic blast at a thick section of vines. Initiative: [attack=332888992986739]
