Knight rolled up the page, and slipped it into his pocket. Now came the part where he made his escape.

“Down here…I he may have come down here to catch his breath, Sister.”

Knight clutched his teeth. “Damn! Not now!” The Assassin figured now was as good a time as any to put his skill back to the test. Taking a deep breath, Knight visualized what he wanted Illi and Eli to see.

“Nothing down here,” Illi said, her voice dripping with venom.

“Damn! I was so sure he would be down here!” Eli approached the space where the door to the vault of riches was. “No…nothing here either. He hasn’t been down here.”

“Come, brother! For the time being there are still intruders to be dealt with,” Illi said.

Eli gave the small space another look over, but his scowling changed nothing as he left with his sister.

Knight took a knee, having been standing on the far edge of the room the entire time, motionless. The strain of creating such an illusion, under these conditions having a clear impact on the already exhausted assassin.

The white-haired Elf, once the coast was clear, made his way up the stairs. The blood trail he’d left as a former liability now his guide back and out of this magic deathtrap. As he walked, blood, fire, and burning fur filled his nostrils with the most pungent and repelling of odors.

Though he raced through here, once at top speed, the young warrior managed to retrace his steps back towards the platform that made up the second floor, this time though, the area appeared to be guarded. Omega seemed to be almost patrolling the area.

Again, Knight turned to his most recently remembered ability.  A deep breath and he visualized what he wanted Omega to see, hoping that his Illusion could affect machines as well as people.

Omega stopped suddenly. “New threat…detected…”

As quick as he could, Knight opened his eyes and made for the stairwell to the first floor, while Omega looked the other way, and to his pleasure, heard only the sound of flamethrowers fading as he made his way down the stairs, and finally out in to the waning sunlight.

In evening light, Knight collapsed, before rolling onto his stomach. His upside down view, showed some of the other competitors and their companions, apparently having obtained their own pages. “So…that was round one? Goddess, what did I get myself into?”
The Epilogue to the quickest succession of submissions I've ever done.

Tired now. Sleep yes.

For :icononce-dead-oct: 

All characters belong to their owners.

Better info later.
