«We Could be Heroes»

Jayne hadn't expected everyone to freeze up. he was sure they would have defended Firestein to the end regardless of what he had done. A small smile bent the corner of his mouth, he was surprised at his own reaction. "Thomas! Take this." he said boldly and opened his hand revealing the blue crystal he had taken from the cave. "help Gage." he turned to face Firestein.
Thomas stood surprised, and ran forward and grabbed it, skidding on his heals and turning and ran to Gage. "Here! Take this, River! Break it over his wound!" He yelled and stopped abruptly, opening his hand and letting the crystal fly through the air.
~~~
River grabbed the crystal, turned and did as Thomas said, breaking it over Gage`s wounds.
~~~
Thomas turned and ran to Jayne`s side. "Your reign is over Firestein!"
 
The other soldiers backed away as a spark jumped from a square bulge beneath the nape of his neck. Eyes brightened to red again, and he folded his arms in, as if somehow trying to restrain himself.
Then came a growl. An electric sound, pulsating from his throat until it crescendoed into a roar that consumed the man's entire face with rage.

"Abort mission! Get out! Get out!" Shouted a soldier, abandoning his weapon in a cold sweat.

Misty watches the soldier the second he would make a move she would end it
she looks back at the others
"GO GET OUT WHILE YOU STILL CAN"

Most wouldn't have even noticed it. It wasn't even a twitch, more of a slow, painful movement. An iota. Easily else's touch that had caused it. And yet, the stubs where Gage's wings used to be, moved.
 
Jayne nodded, and started toward the door, with the help of (someone - anyone) on Gages other arm.
Another soldier sidled up beside him, and gave him a reassuring nod, though his forehead was beaded with sweat as they rushed for the stairs, away from the deafening roars.
