"Man, this place BITES!" one young man complained loudly to a middle-aged woman he was walking with in the Universal Studies theme park, "They SAY those rides are all thrilling, but they ain't NOTHING... And these crowds suck! I ain't never coming here for any kind of vacation again!"
"Ashlen Shaffon is performing, that's why the crowds are so large and that's why we're here." the woman sounded a little more than irritated.
"Ashlen's an idiot!"
The lady rolled her eyes, "Like I said, that's why we're here. Patience, the performance starts in half an hour. You can have your thrills then."
"OH YEAH!"
Ashlen Shaffon was a celebrity singer and had recently made some anti-evolved statements. The young man and woman - who would show up at the beginning of his concert as Vintria and Wind Bliss - had him targeted. Nobody but nobody was going to go off on their kind.
And when they appeared, it was with a vengeance. Wind Bliss wanted his 15 seconds of fame and made an unusually nondestructive entrance, using wind gusts to propel him on stage and snatching the microphone, "You guys want thrills? This park ain't NOTHING! The only thrill there is is an F6 tornado!"
Luckily for the audience, the man not only hadn't yet made wind strength that hard before, but had to take some time in cooking up a storm... which he wasted no time in doing. Lifting up again and laughing in a maniac pleasure, he used his powers to begin bending and twisting the metal. The other thing he wasted no time in was forgetting why they were there.
Vintria was just a little more focused than that. Decorative plants on stage had been growing while the attention was set on Wind Bliss, and now fairly burst out, and all toward the direction of the celebrity.
Needless to say.... The chaos and noise at Universal Studios was not at all the happy every day sort.

Erol had half a mind to just sit back and see what the deal was. He watched in silence (or lack thereof with all the screaming and chaos around him) as hordes vines began to form on stage aimed at the singer Ashlen Shaffon. Along with that pompous Evo who had no class when it came to introducing himself.
A snort escaped his nose before he took off at a decent speed knowing that if he just stood around doing nothing that the singer would likely sing no more. Half way into that thought a smirk formed on his face which he hid behind locks of shaggy dirty blonde hair and thick sunglasses. So Ashlen wouldn't sing anymore was that really a bad thing?
His conscious wasn't so very loud this day particularly. "Figures..." He muttered and aimed a well portioned shockwave of energy toward the singer. This was only to move the idiot out of harms way as he sent the man flying into curtains and further back stage. Probably not the best method of saving lives but when you had to think on the fly it was better to come out with a few bruises then dead.
"Tell me you're just an over zelous fan so I can get back to enjoying my day..." Erol drawled just as he sent a small shockwave bursting in all directions to split a sea of hysterically scared patrons in all general directions. Once they were out of the way Erol was visible as clear as day standing proudly as he lit a cigarette and took a long drag. "Or is his singing that bad?" He asked blowing a billow of smoke into the air gadged his current situation.

To say the least, Megan was not pleased about the entire situation. Sure, Ashlen Shaffon had rather easily (and quickly) earned a place in Megan's list of famous people to hate, but she was pretty sure that he probably didn't deserve this. Probably.
Still, that didn't change the fact that at the moment, he'd just been thrown backstage and that there were still two 'bad guys' to deal with. She'd been one of the many who'd run out of the way of the shockwave. Megan was still trying to think of what to do as she did her best not to be trampled by the panicking crowd.
"What are these guys' problems?" Megan muttered to herself in annoyance. She decided to help Erol, for now... If only because it'd keep her from being harassed later for not helping and not doing a very good job of keeping up with training.
"Yeah, because you always hurt the ones you love, right?" Megan quipped in response to Erol as she noticed Vintria manipulating the plants. She quickly sent a blast of strong wind at the older woman. It was no where near as powerful as Wind Bliss' blasts might be, but... It was hopefully enough to break her concentration.
Needless to say, Megan would soon know exactly how much she'd regret her negligence towards training.

"Oh?" Vintria looked at Erol in surprise and frowned. She hadn't expected any other Evos to get involved, not after the statements Shaffen had made. "Why would you defend this scumba--" She blinked then as realisation set in "Ah, you must be one of those--" she broke off to sidestep a windblast and laughed unbelievingly at Megan. "You've GOT to be kidding me. "OY WIND, get your a** down here." She pointed at Megan. "There's someone that wants to play with ya."
Having his attention torn away from the tornado he was currently revolving around in the middle off, Wind Bliss' eyes lit up in pleasure at the challenge. "Wind? YAY! You wanna play with me, girl?" The tornado was dispelled as he let his winds lift and place him a short distance away from Megan. "Let's go!" he cheered and promptly a storm wind started raging around him before it propelled itself towards Megan. Wind Bliss laughed in delight as he let himself fall backwards, only to have the wind keep him upright.

Erol simply scratch his head looking uninsterested in the events unfolding. He allowed a quick glance toward the one Wind guy before turning his attention to the chick with sticks... or whatever it was. He took a short puff of his cig before spitting it to the side and snuffing the light with his boots. "Yeah well... the scumbag could rot in hell for all I care but I can't just sit around and let the guy get hurt." He had a sly grin on his lips the whole time always intrigued by a little skirmish here and there.
"Tell ya what if you just turn tail and run.. or better yet go out with me I'll tie him up for ya and let ya have a few licks at'em. What'da say? Game?" He knew that probably wouldn't fly but a silly joke at a time like this always help to get his confidence flowing it often riled his opponent enough to attack first... which gave him time to analyse his option. Hopefully he'd annoy the woman enough for her to do just that... if not no biggy he'd have to go about it the old fashion way.
Even so it seemed the other Evo was well on his way to the first attack. He sighed it had beeen a long time since he'd last seen Megan, but what the hell was her problem anyway? He shrugged keeping his eyes trained on the vine witch any opening he gave her would probably end in disaster. Looking around he noticed that the crowd had dispersed for the most part which was in their advantage. No hostages to be found; meaning Erol could cut loose... or at least be mindful of his Evo companion.
Man how he hated having a partner. They could easily get in his way... even so he let out a quick wave of energy that shook the ground under his feet. He would have helped Megan but she had to fight her own battles. That left Erol to play with the vine witch. While he wasn't slow by any means Erol still had to learn a lot about himself... he managed to close the distance between himself and Vintria smiling cheekily when he was face to face with her. "So how about that date, you game?" He questioned smoothly with a wink behind his sunglasses though he wasn't really waiting for a reply as he channeled more energy into his fist. If he could keep close to her he wouldn't have to worry about her vines....
[Note: using (....) <-- those is a means to an opening in attack or counterattack. It just helps to keep me in check so I don't get ahead of myself. *nods* ]

"Right, let's do this..." Megan muttered. She'd barely avoided getting caught up in the winds that'd been thrown at her. She did her best to avoid getting hit while she thought of some sort of stratagy.
Only she found herself being more and more distracted by trying to not get hit or sucked in. Things were starting to get a bit frustrating.
Ugh. Screw this, she thought. This was getting her nowhere. She might as well just throw some blasts and hope that they hit rather than attempt anything more elaborate. So that was what she did.
Sure, she was more likely to cause much more damage, but... If there was an off chance that it might hurt him... Well, those were acceptable losses. It wasn't as if she'd be paying to fix them up anyway.

Shockwaves, even Erol's, needed a good medium to go through, and wind that was whipping around everywhere and NOT following the usual laws of physics was not a good medium. Megan's attempts sending blasts at Wind Bliss's way first served to throw him back as he was caught off guard, but were then dispersed about by the air it was going through. Wind Bliss laughed at her. "Is THAT it? That's how you play? Too little evolveds wit shock power, Oooh, I'm soooo scared!" And he pushed the wind harder back at Megan.
Vintria raised a solid bark wall from a root that she'd snatched up somewhere around Shaffen, "How about we play for keeps?" She asked, a bark sheen coming to her own skin. Directly underneath Erol, those same roots exploded upwards, tearing apart the stage. Vintria side stepped so she was no longer directly in front of him. Fist fights were not her thing, and she wouldn't engage in such.

Holy crap! His mind hadn't been in the game until the roots had found their way under foot. Spiraling up and dancing around him, he felt himself falling briefly before his foot caught on a root. Using it to push away he continued upward briefly before finding purchase on solid ground... a close call.
"Well damn ... that was fun." He muttered looking around for an opening. Obviously he would need to get closer to the other if he were to make any progress. She perhaps knew this or prefered to fight from long range distances.
Well either way those roots were underground and a well planted shockwave which could travel through dirt, rock and soil, would definately shake up things a bit.
