"Bye Deke" Kaida said as they went through the portal. She heaved herself up and looked around the dark arena. "O...kay, either someone else got through first or we have to fight against invisible aliens."

"Whoa! Did we win?" inquired Mickey eagerly.

After several minutes of standing around in the darkness, another portal opens up at the other side of the arena and a group of bowling ball sized creatures floats out.

A moment later, a voice yells out, "READY...FIGHT!"

"Aaah-wait WHAT?!" Mickey exclaimed, practically jumping in surprise. "What is this MADNESS? And NO ONE say Sparta," she added as an afterthought. Nervously, she glanced around, holding her hockey stick in what she hoped was an intimidating position. "Uh, beware!"

"Well havn't gotten to use this yet so migh as well." I say to myself. I take the Occasionally Explosive Silly Putty out of my pocket and gently roll several small balls and begain to toss them in random directions hopping to hit something or at least light up small areas and see if anything is there.

EVERYONE
The balls split up. A couple of them fly at the Earth team, somehow wielding a mallet and a giant fish, and begen attacking. Several more of them begin flying around above the group and make strange shrieking noises in an attempt to distract the humans. A couple more hang back at the other end of the arena and begin firing what appear to be laser guns.
True to it's name, the silly putty is only occasionally explosive and only one of the balls explodes. However, in a lucky twist, the explosion hits one of the laser firing balls, sending it crashing into the wall of the arena. The ball floats away slowly, looking rather dazed, then falls to the ground.

"Make annoying shrieking noises, will yeh?" Mickey shouted to no one in particular. "Aha! I can out-annoying you any day!" Quickly, she reached into her pocket and snagged her air horn. As she waved it about, Mickey shouted, "I warned yeh! You migh want to cover your ears," she added quickly as an afterthought to her team. With a wince, she blew the horn, which let out an incredibly loud noise that would probably eventually result in her going deaf, but, eh, whatever. As long as they win.

Kaida covered her ears as Mickey blew her horn. It certainly hurt he ears, but they were fighting round balls... Do they even have ears? She wondered while waiting to see if the horn had any effect on their opponents.

"Well the putty sure lives up to the name. But wasn't expecting that to even happen. Aliens and their strange way with words for items." Just then I got a warning to cover my ears. Not knowing really why I quickly conver my ears as a very loud noice came from the air horn. "Wonder if that helped or hurt us?" I say to myself.

It was hard to tell if the sound itself bothers the orbs but the sheer force of the airhorn blast sent several of them flying off. The ones that were still standing redoubled their efforts, only to be suddenly set upon by an angry pack of woodchucks summoned up by Gar's wand. The orbs go down rather easily. A moment later, a portal appears in the middle of the arena.

((Feel freeto post about winning and/or going through the portal if you want. My final post of this round will come either tomorrow or the day after, just depending on how my schedule goes.))

"Huh? We won? We won!" Mickey jumped up and down. "Yaaay! ...wait, we did win, right?" inquired Mickey as an afterthought. "Uh... still not entirely sure how stuff works 'round these parts."

Mickey walked over to Gary, and casually put her arm on his shoulder to lean against him (though it didn't work too well due to the fac that Gary was significantly taller). "Eh. I think it worked out quite well."

EVERYONE
The Earth team passed through the portal and found themselves back on the Portal Panic stage. As they arrived, their items and powers from the Wheel of Fate vanished, though everything else they'd aquired remained.

"CONGRATULATIONS!!!" Hostly was as excitable as ever. "A little behind our first place finishers, but a strong finish none-the-less for the surprisingly adaptable Earth team!" he paused while the audience applauded. "Your next round will begin in three days so take some time to relax then come back ready to fight!"

((And the round it over! Everyone is now back in the Lounge, which you're free to explore in the Lounge thread. You have three days game time (and probably around two or three weeks real time) before the next round begins.))
