( Meanwhile, Tommy strolls his ambling, rolling way toward the schoolhouse, toward the front side. )
Run away, run away, little lady. Hahaha! You can't hide for long.
( Sharon holds silent for the moment, stepping smartly back around the building. )
My eyes can cut through anything, you know! Hiding will only stop you from seeing which way your death arrives!
( He really talks too much for her tastes. But the moment she's waiting for comes as he passes the far corner at the front of the building. Tommy's shadow merges with the building's, and Eques is in place. Gilbert needs to hold out for a little longer, then she can help; right now, this pompous beast needs to be reminded of who he isn't.
That is, anyone worth troubling ones self over. )
A man of your age going on like this, Mr. Tommy, is really quite unbecoming. Do get ahold of yourself.
( She says, speaking through his shadow, and he whips around and cuts through the dirt and rock behind him, but no Sharon. She fists her hands in the material of her skirts, eyes glinting as Eques responds to her fairly simple command.
Tommy seems to sense the shadow rearing up behind him, but he learns a fraction too late that searing through shadow doesn't produce the same sort of results as anything of substance. With Eques's hooves giving him a firm knock to the too large noggin, Tommy goes down, eyes rolling up in the back of his head. Sharon comes around the far side of the building, brushing her fingers over Eques' nose. )
Thank you, Eques.
( Borrowed power and strength was still borrowed, and still powerful. The steady beat of a pulse at Tommy's throat is apparent; Sharon dusts her skirts off with a quick movement of her hands. To see where Gilbert's at, and to find something to tie this fool up with so he's not gone before they can take care of his little eye problem and expunge any useful information.
Which is, of course, when she first hears the far off sounds of the compy herd heading their way. )
Gilbert! We've company!
( Time to solve the problem of DANGER ZONE; Tommy they can figure out later. He shouldn't be waking anytime soon! )
