"ZAAAZOOM ZAZAMOOOR! KAL-LUM TALMUT! HORRA!"

"MY GOD!" Quattro's eyes bugged out. Cinque and Tre shared equally shocked looks.

"BURNING IN THE DEPTHS OF THE PITS OF DARKNESS!" I snarled, the voice effect fully enveloping it and making it seem a hundred times more menacing. "LET THE FIRES OF HELL TAKE YOU!"

"It's got to be a trick!" Tre gasped, even though the look on her face disagreed with her words.

"LET THE FIRES BECOME MY SWORD AND STRIKE YOU DOWN!" I snarled, aiming my right hand at Cinque while switching Dido's beam saber to the left. While she was distracted by me 'attacking' her, Senbei would make his move without fear of getting blasted, then we could take Tre and Quattro out in seconds, run for our lives, and hope for the best.

"VENOM!"

'KABLAM!'

My ears popped, the room flared white and there was a burst of heat like I'd just opened an oven door. The glass around me shattered, and most importantly, Cinque went flying backwards through a half-molten steel door that failed under the force of her impact.

I looked again, next to a shell-shocked Quattro and an aghast Tre, at the two-meter wide hole blown right through the wall, and its glowing orange molten edges. There was a line of scorch marks traveling all the way from where I was standing, right out through the hole, to where Cinque lay against an equally blasted and slightly scorched rock wall.

Bleeding badly.
