Something Wicked (Part Two)

(The following is a continuance of this scene.)

The battle wasn't going well...but it could be a lot, LOT worse.

The chimp had arrived, and he brought backup - but it sure as heck wasn't the Justice League.

Sand had surveyed the situation.  Chimp was on his way to meet with Corrine and Caleb, to add the last ingredient of the potion.   Tefe Holland (not sure how SHE got there, but she was a welcome sight) was advancing on where Green Shield and the blue man were fighting it out - and Tara looked like she needed help.  The aliens had shifted form - into a werewolf-like creature and an ice construct, apparently - and were about to engage Mammoth and Shimmer.

Meanwhile, Brainwave and Psimon were apparently fighting one another, with neither getting a clear advantage over the other just yet.   The witch, Magique, however, had just apparently taken her Megazord form and had laid HARD into Trevor.   THERE is where he was needed at the moment.

Sand took a moment to look into the sky  almost as if the battle hadn't been fully joined yet.

Caleb’s heart skips a beat as Corrine rushes down the stairs. So with his Desert Eagle in hand, Caleb charges down the stairs after her. While they have a bird’s eye view of the fight, they’re hardly omniscient. The attic is the only room they’ve occupied consistently since the onset of combat, and consequentially, is the only one that Caleb knows for certain is secure.

“Corrine!” He calls worriedly as he chases her out of the room. “For the love of god, please stop doing that.” He tries to sound firm, but comes across like a scared teenager asking for a favor. It returns to his normal voice as he speaks, though. “There’s a reason he’s coming to you, love.”

With his free hand, Caleb reaches into his pocket, and produces the rest of the cure. “Here you go,” he says to the chimp as he offers it to him. An awkward quiet follows, as the last time Caleb saw the chimp, it was in the JSA Brownstone, and he was possessed by Neron. He said some pretty nasty things, and still feels as though he should offer an apology, but right now certainly isn’t the time. After the fight, though….

Assuming we all survive, he thinks.

The chimp runs up the stairs. "Gimme the magic potion, Grumpypants. We've got a bible-babe to save."

Caleb hands him the vial. “Do we have a timetable for how quickly this should take effect?”

"It needs time for the chemicals to interact before she can drink it," the chimp replies, placing the last ingredient within the vial, then popping the cap back on. "But I should be able to..."
