Professor Vengeance, Epsilon, Twitch, Eudial, Marisa, Phantasmic Slammer

Vs.

Samurai Chicken, Ogre, Wigglituff Necromancer, Tedious postcard man and the Death of VHS

Eudial has little time for works, and immediately prepares a fiery blast to incinerate the armoured Death of VHS, but even as the bolt appears to be about to connect, a whirring sound emanates from the Black and White armour and the fire bolt reverses down its trajectory and hits back into Eudial sending her spinning backwards although unharmed. It apparently has a rewind function…

Vengeance however has a little better luck, spinning his thoughtsteel blade towards the hostages it morphs into a protective bubble to keep them safe from the fight. Even as he spins to the Ogre he notices that creature isn’t entirely what it initially appeared, a complex suit of power armour is unfolding outwards from those giant knuckle dusters. It’s managed to cover his, arms, shoulders and neck before Vengeance manages to cut some of the actuators with a slice from his cane-laser – still, he only narrowly manages to avoid the massive armoured right hook that demolishes the pillar he had been standing by.

Twitch makes a beeline for the Wigglytuff – even as several assorted creatures begin to rise from the ground around it – but Twitches new blades shatter a spectral Flowerpot man, decapitate a vampire-gerbil and disembowel a zombie Kligon. However even as his blades are inches from his target, he feels an impact from the side. A postcard. Even as he is impacted he feels teleportation sickness as he finds himself suddenly in a paddy field farming mandrakes. Another impact a moment later and he finds himself on a snowy mountaintop, observing Yetis playing backgammon. A third card hits and falls to the ground, next to him, and he realizes that it shows the exact place he now finds himself – a rundown seaside town with low employment rates and miserable weather.

He contacts the castle on his communicator, but apparently there will be a bit of recalibrating before he can teleport back to the fight. However, as he is waiting, he notices something nearby – a small but perfectly formed conch shell. Something about it radiates magic, and he picks it up and stuffs it in his satchel and waits for the teleporter…

Back in the fight, mere moments after he had vanished Twitch off to God knows where, the man with the tedious little moustache is slammed backwards through a window even as he turns to defend himself: a flurry of postcards displaying the beaches of Gallifrey, the Historical Sites of Lemuria and Milton Keynes are incinerated as the man is blasted backwards through the window behind him and down to the pavement below with a thud by the impact of Marisa's laser…
