Raine glanced nervously at Doc as she walked towards him. She then pressed herself close to his frame and whispered in one of his mirrors. "Doc. What if this guy manages to break through all this...? I don't want you to end up getting hurt trying to defend us..."

Phoenix took a deep breath as she poked at the essensse of her grandfather that had worked its way into Ebony's system. "It would take some work, but I could pull it from your system. You ready."

Ebony nodded and willed her body not to tremble at the prospect of going through a magical cleansing, which, to her knowledge, had never happened to her before.
"I'm ready."

"This ain't the first time I almost got killed." Doc growled. "I'm not gonna let some punk with a few magic tricks push me around."
A small knot of humans looked on from the center court area...

Raine gently stroked the Hornet's muzzle, trying to calm him. "Just... don't do anything out of your league... I don't know what I'd do if he did anything to you... Please." She then looked him straight in the eye, her amber orbs sparkling with concern. "Do it for me... if not for your sake..."

"Okay," Phoenix said. "You'll probably feel me pulling, but this is gonna hurt me a lot more than you."
Thr Trans Am took a deep breath. "Hic mihi sicco , adeo mihi , aufero vestri ex is Northmanni," she growled, her eyes flashing white as she began the mental and magical tug-a-war.

The Latin words were lost on Ebony as she neither had the knowledge to speak them or understand them. All she did was stay still during this process.
At first, there was nothing. Then she felt the gentle tugging inside. What was going on?

"I hope it never comes to that." Doc looked back into Raine's face, "But sometimes life doesn't give you any options."

Phoenix gritted her teeth and growled as it pulled back on her, but as it started to release from Ebony, she fought and pulled at it harder to keep it from latching back on to the Viper

Ebony continued to hold still as the tugging began to increase. Yet, at this point, she was thinking, When is this gonna be over?

Kathleen sensed the struggle going on within the mountain, and added her own strength. Shayla was still trying to get the newcomers settled.

Phoenix put all her effort into one last surge of power and gave one last pull. Finally it released, sending Phoenix a few feet back, to where she sank to the ground, panting with exhaustion and pain as it latched onto her.
Luckily for her, it would be a few hours as her body would eventually absorb it. "Its gone..."

Ebony blinked and shook herself. Her breathing was much more clear now and she didn't feel that scratchy coughing feeling. Indeed, it was gone. She looked over at Phoenix.
"Are you alright?" she asked with concern.

Raine tried to supress a gasp when she saw Phoenix fly a few feet backwards from the force. "Oh my God! Are you okay?!"
