"So you don't like us? Hehe could of told us instead of slamming our asses around, so yeah... I'm going to take my friends and go now." Says Lesley getting up stroking his chin trying to numb the pain.

Blaze quickly sheathes his sword and fires his deagle at the Gunman

followed immediately by flicking his fingers to create and launch a fireball right in front of himself hoping to catch the Gunman if he appears

The gunman appears next to a table, picking it up with one hand and launching it at Blaze. He then manifests next to Lesley and delivers a painful kick to Lesley's stomach, sending him flying to the other side of the room.

Blaze quickly draws his sword into whip mode and attempts to slash through the table vertically into 2 pieces that will fly past either side of him.

Seeing Blaze attempt to slice the table in half Jaxsom gets ready to shoot The Gunman through the gap between the pieces to try catch The Gunman off guard.

The table is sliced neatly down the center, the pieces rocketing past Blaze either side and smashing into the wall. The gunman appears to be gone. Lesley is lying in a heap next to the far wall, and broken tables litter the cafeteria, but there is no sign of the gunman.
Right up until he put a hand on Blaze and Jaxsom's shoulders.

Blaze retracts the sword out of whip mode as he attempts so slash at the Gunman to his side while trying to step back away from him so as not to hit Jaxsom by accident expecting the Gunman to dodge the attack.

With the hand that was on Blaze's shoulder, he catches the blade edge in between his fingers with ease, and pulls it out of Blazes hands, tossing it near where Lesley was lying.

Blaze starts retreating backwards away from the Gunman in the direction of Lesley and his sword.
He says to the Gunman "For the record, no I don't seek death, but you told me to remain silent, when I did you tried to kill me. Having said that though, I would gladly accept death if the situation called for it."

The crystals spinning around Jaxsom suddenly turn into swords. He grabs one of the swords and uses it and the ones spinning around him to try and attack The Gunman.

The gunman appears behind Jaxsom and delivers a swift punch to the back of his head, knocking Jaxsom out cold and sending the crystal swords clattering to the ground.
He then gives Blaze an interesting look.
"You would accept death?"

Blaze continues to move backward toward Lesley and his sword.

Looking back at the Gunman, but careful not to look in his eyes again he responds:

"If the situation called for it yes. For example, if I knew my sacrifice would allow others to live, that might be such a situation. I do not actively seek death though, that would seem foolish, after all, what can I do if I'm dead?"

"A statement fitting to your status." he murmured.
"I had no wish to engage you or your friends, but when you kept interrupting me with your incessant chatter, I had to take action. When you finally stopped talking and I tried to reward your obedience, you resisted! I dislike wasting my energy on rewarding ungrateful grunts."

Blaze looks at the Gunman somewhat confused

"Reward my obedience? You must excuse my ignorance but it felt as if you were draining my body of life, as if I was dying... and as I saw no reason to die yet, I was opposed."

Blaze stops retreating, curious at the turn of conversation.

"Of course it felt like you were dying, your body was. I was enlightening your mind, or I would have done had you not resisted."

Blaze looks thoughtful at this ... information

"So ... I would have lost my body completely? And gained enlightenment? I don't suppose you could uh shed some light on this enlightenment you were trying to give me?"

"Words cannot explain it. It is an experience incomprehensible to the human mind."

Blaze frowns at the lack of anything to work with

"That makes it awfully difficult to decide if I want it, I know not of the benefits yet I know I will lose my body, I can't help but lean toward no with such limited information, you have my apologies though. Besides, how does this help us find the others we seek?"

"I wasn't offering it any more. I was just informing you about it. Kindly take your friends and move on. I must return to my concentration." He moves to one of the few remaining tables and takes a seat.
Jaxsom wakes up with a cough of blood.

Blaze hears Jaxsom coughing

"Don't attack! Get up guys, we continue our search of the facility!"

and he moves over to and picks up his sword, sheathing his weapons as he heads for the other door that they did not enter via.

Jaxsom gets up and wipes the blood from his lip.

Hen then gives Blaze and The Gunman a questioning look, shrugs and proceeds to follow Blaze to the next door.

Meanwhile his swords turn back into crystals and start to lazily spin around him again.

Lesley appears to be unconscious.

Jaxsom seeing Lesley unconscious on the floor, sighs and turns around to walk over to him. He then picks Lesley up telekinetically and walks with him back towards the door where Blaze went.

Blaze nods at Jaxsom and indicates he should follow as he opens the door to go through...

It leads into the middle of a hallway going in both directions. To the right is a door with a sign indicating it is the administrators office. To the left, the hallway turns a corner and leads out of sight.
