Luci's magical snare wears off of the snake just in time for Miranda's magic to hit it. The impact is considerably loud, accompanied by the definitive sound of stone cracking. Shards of the snake statue crumble, soon accompanied by larger chunks falling away from its body.

Better be careful, folks. Any more dire hits and this statue may explode.

Rachel tries to maintain her hold on it, hoping to keep its structure together. She moves it away from the orb of light and further away from the escaping group. A shadow casts up around the orb, blocking out its glow and forming a shield to contain it.

Simply destroying this snake was not a good idea, not when they didn't know what effect that might have. She had always been a bit too cautious.

"Guys, we should really get out of here," Ez shouts, dragging Harper along at a run.

Miranda is already getting the heck out of there!

It's just going a little slowly, is all.

Harper's following, only finding herself being tugged too harshly when she's looking over her shoulder to make sure Luci's actually behind them. But then the others... she tries to train her gaze forward again. They seemed powerful, why were they holding back?

"Wh-What's going to happen, if that thing is destroyed?"

Panic quickly washed over her face as the statue began to crumble and the light orb spun faster. She hadn't realized how fragile they really were, and suddenly her attempt to secure a clear opening for her friend was endangering them all and she had no way to stop it. Starting to run back toward it with the full intention of taking the hit herself, but stopped short as a dark energy wrapped itself around it. Spinning faster still, the orb finally exploded, insulated by dark energy.

Quickly looking toward Rachel, Luci gave her both a relieved and apologetic look before running forward again. Sweeping in and grasping Harper's other hand, she looked over the girl's head to Ez. "We need go to. Now!" There was nothing she could do that wouldn't force the snake to reach critical mass, so instead, she cast out another shield--this time sure to hit everyone. That would be all they got from her, the teen closing her eyes for a moment and taking a deep breath. No more spells for a bit.

Oh, yes, actually getting out of here. Good idea, much better than standing around being offended that Luci hadn't given him a shield too.

But then he got one anyway just as he started moving again. THANK YOU LUCI, HE'S SATISFIED NOW. With that additional assurance of his well-being, he continued clearing them a path to the stairs, stopping at the bottom and motioning for them to go on ahead. He would play rear-guard while they got up to the first floor, and then follow them up once everyone was safely on their way out of the basement.
