beneath the black, the sky looks dead

WHO: THE VOID and YOU?
WHERE: Around the City and the Brooklyn Bridge
WHEN: Sunday, 8/2
WARNINGS: Violence, death, chaos
SUMMARY: The Sentry loses control.
FORMAT: Quick.


[ There was no abrupt revelation, no struggle; when Robert Reynolds had opened his eyes that day, the Sentry was simply nowhere to be found. He'd flown from the mansion into the sky, a poisonous oily creature wearing Bob's skin and the Sentry's clothes until even that began to shed. Red eyes and an aura like fire and toxic ash, sharp tendrils coiling out behind and around him like sentient shadows.

Years. Years here, trapped, ignored, denied. Bob was done fighting, and hurting; his mind went blank so that someone else could use his body to fight back. But it was his body, too -- the Void celebrated his freedom by flying into the sky, raising his arms and calling upon the sky to darken in deep reds and purples. Clouds collected and rain started pouring; he raised his face to the rain and smiled, before he dropped from the sky and flew cleanly through the Brooklyn Bridge. ]

[ He's barely aware of what's happening anymore. The pain that shoots through him hurt more than it had ever had previously. Everything's a blur now, moving too fast for him.

The Void's vanished from his line of vision, then he can't feel the ground beneath him and he realizes too late he's been tossed back. He can't shield himself; Gil crashes back down with a heavy thud onto the roof, shaking wildly.

Raven's already gone. Left behind are its feathers that fall around them. ]


AUUUUGH!

[ Gil rolls onto his good side and remains there, writhing in horrible pain. ]
