Royce and Umbert both shouted in surprise as the flashbang went off, the barkeep loosing focus on the second blast of ice dust he had been preparing. It detonated at his side, encasing Boilermaker's spout in a solid chunk of ice. The barkeep ducked behind cover, and started removing the ice from the device.

The bull-faunus - on the other hand - began advancing. Albiet with a lot more restraint this time. His eyes turned back to their normal color, and a wry grin overtook his face as his axe's head reconfigured into an over-sized stun prod. The faunus waited for the moment to strike, but in the meantime contented himself with standing over by the door. The way this fight was shaping up, they'd need to keep the exits covered, and he wasn't sure he could get a good swing in and not his Zaffre.

Taela, on the other hand, had finally wiped the tears away from her eyes. But something was missing. It was like she was in a fog, she couldn't tell what was going on. Her first instinct was to mumble "guys?" as she got back on her feet. But no sound reached her ears. She suddenly realized why the room had seemed so still, in spite of the clutter and furious action. A high-pitched ringing in her ears was the only thing she could hear. She couldn't hear where everyone was, or listen for incoming fire, or anything!

She raised her weapon- the azione forte- and aimed it square at Cadoc's masked head. Unlike Umbert, Taela had decided she would shoot as many people as it took as long as the merc was one of them. she opened fire, and a bright teal beam lanced at the contract killer.
