Anastasia weakly climbed up onto her tires, coughing a few more times. So the Ferrari had survived... but what about the Viper?
"My fault..." she tried to say before having to cough more. Her alternator felt like scrap...
(or at least I think it's the alternator that would be the cars equivalent of lungs...)

Tempest remained calm. She had been accused of similar situations in which she was forced to endanger someone's life in order to save them. This was not a new thing for her.
"No one is to blame here except for the demon," she replied solomnly, "It was trying to destroy us all, but I have, at least, managed to stop it before it had gotten to that point."

Egill was done eavesdropping. There was nothing much more happening, and he figured he had given Tempest enough to get out and go to the track for some rest to restore her strength, naturally.
"Sever the link if you want, but if you think there is more trouble coming, do let me know."

"Then it is best to keep the link connected, just in case," answered Tempest, "I have almost caused the deaths of three people, including myself, if I was not so rash as to extract the demon right away."

"You nearly killed the two of us...and I don't even want to know what you were trying to do to me before I blacked out there," Eddie growled, before turning back to face Anastasia. "It's not your fault...it's mine. I shouldn't have gone out with these crazy cars..."

"I led them to you..." She coughed a few more times before trying to shake some of the dust off. Her frame creaked a little bit. She was lucky her sheet metal was still intact... there were probably many opportunities for her to get impaled on a steel beam.

(((((OOC: You know, there's got to be an easier way for these demon encounters to happen. Should probably be discussed in the Track Time OOC thread at some point.)))))
At this point, Tempest had decided that it was pointless to argue with an obviously angry car and kept her silence. There was no way that she was possibly going to convince Eddie that what she was trying to do was trying to save his life from the demon.
It feels as if the demon is intensifying Eddie's anger toward Ebony and myself, Tempest thought, It will hold us both responsible for what we just tried to do to it just now.

At that point, Egill gave Tempest a massive push. "One of the support beams is creaking. Joltsen saw it but he's a racer, not an arcitect, therefore doesn't know. You don't have much time."

Tempest looked up briefly, seeing the support beam and it's precarious position right about her, Eddie, and Annie, then she looked at the two in front of her.
"The support beam," Tempest suddenly exclaimed, "It is creaking and is in danger of breaking. We must get out of here now!"

Anastasia looked up at said beam, sinking low on her tires. They just couldn't get a break... She tried to start her engine, only to hear it struggle. This wasn't good...

((I suppose it should actually get easier to "draw" out the demon after its first exorcism. But yeah, we'll discuss it as it goes on.))
Eddie also tried to ignore Tempest. Maybe the police wouldn't be able to link the collapse to her or even Ebony...but he hopefully wouldn't get himself incriminated as destroying it either...though they might not buy his "I fainted!" testimony.
"C'mon...we need to get you to a hospital. It doesn't look too serious..." Eddie said to Annie before trying to dial 911 on his phone.

After trying to start her engine again, she sighed and settled with "walking" on her tires in an attempt to get out from underneath the beam. It was better than sitting there useless... "Ricki's gonna-" another cough. "... have my hood... Can't seem to stay out of trouble this week..."

(((((OOC: Slow. Eating.)))))
"Commoror constans!" Tempest snapped her antenna and a powerful beam of light shot up at the support beam to hold it steady, giving Annie time to get out from underneath it before it would fall.
(((((OOC: Latin for: Remain steady.)))))

Eddie glared at the beam of light, not so much that it was of a light elemental but more because it was that light. One act of kindness wasn't going to significantly change his opinion toward the sorceress Ferrari, but he tried not to let it show, letting his fascial expression relax when he looked toward her.
He still focused more on trying to help Annie to safety, too.
((I'm gonna try to sleep earlier tonight, been having 3-11AM sleeping periods recently, even though I actually go to bed at 2. D: Nighty, and please for someone to puppet Eddie. He won't be as furious at Tempest as he was before, but he will still hold her in disdain.))
