Desert Foxes: Tamthis's escape

added by Iphis 14 years ago O

Abu Haj was, in Jasim's estimation, a rarity among djinn--a good Muslim. As Jasim's lieutenant, he would be able to keep the djinn from going nuts on the local humans and foxpeople after contact was severed between the angel and the djinn army.

For about four hours.

Definitely time to wrap this up.

Lisa and Erica burst through the door.

"Spread out! Spread out!" Jasmine yelled. Just then a Tamthis-delivered fireball burst between the new angels, as Lisa and Erica dived in opposite directions.

+++++++

"Now do you see?" asked the Vulcan in Tamthis's mind. "Three angels? Continued resistance is most illogical. The logical course of action is clearly to surrender now and save your people!"

"Three angels, three hundred angels. This is my place." shouted Tamthis.

"You would let your city be destroyed?" Kyriel shook her head.

+++++++++++

Lisa and Erica, their bodies shrieking with the pain of the burn, rolled to opposite sides of the room and came up throwing spears of angelic power at Tamthis. The balance of power in the room had changed, and the kitsune king now found himself on the defensive. He leaped up as the spears dissipated harmlessly below him, and found himself entangled in a force net, courtesy of Jasmine. Tamthis knew that in order to keep up with the raw power of three angels, four counting the vixen in his mind, he had to escalate, He drew on the power embedded in his city.

What was happening to his city?

+++++++++++++

Akane had shifted back to the female form. Her last experience of the male form was still making her a little queasy. "What's that?" she shouted, as something like an electric shock made its way through the strands of kitsune magic that were the fabric of Karther's, now Tamthis's city.

"Something's pulling at the city! Trying to draw it in!" Keiko shouted. "Pull back!"

+++++++++

Tamthis grimaced. Something was happening to his city, something that was preventing him from fully drawing on the power locked up in it. If the city wouldn't come to Tamthis. . . .

Then, in front of the vixen/angel, the mental image of the kitsune ruler faded and disappeared. "What?" said Kyriel, puzzled.

"He's gone." said the Vulcan. "His mind went into the city."

"Uh, so who controls this body now?"

"Until Tommy's personality can re-form, that would be you."

++++++++

Jasmine tightened the net around Tamthis. She had no desire to kill the kitsune king, but she wanted to make sure he was safely immobilized. Suddenly the body started twitching and shouting. "Let me go! Let me go, Jasmine! It's me, Kyriel!"

Cautiously, Jasmine sent a mental tendril towards the immobilized fennec kitsune. It was indeed Kyriel who was the dominant force in the chaos of what had been Tamthis's brain. She gently lowered Tamthis's body to the floor and released it, gesturing to Lisa and Erica to stand guard in case it was a trick.

"He's crazy! He sent his mind into the city! Once he gets control of it, the whole city will go mad! He'll kill everybody!"

++++++

Suddenly, the fabric of the city that Akane and Keiko had been carefully unravelling came alive with power!
