Cthulu Rises
Out of the temple doors in the bay comes an ancient evil creature. It is Cthulu himself. He roars loudly then snatches up several cultists and eats them. The frightened screams of the others fill the air. His gaze turns to the shore and then he begins to walk.

His march towards the shore begins and he doesn't notice anything else just yet.

All of a sudden, the tingling goes away. Calm sweeps through him. He pushes her behind him as chitinous armor spreads over his already super durable form, and waves of telekinestic foce sweep out from him, trying to slow the monster's approach.

"Don't look at it too closely." he tells her as he builds back up. "Mortals can't perceive his true form, it drives a lot of people mad... whatever you're doing, just keep it up... you may have just saved six billion lives."

	Cthulu slows and turns a bulbus eye towards Alina. Oh such delicious chaos! He likes this mortal. Perhaps he will keep her as a pet feeding off of her magic for months and digging his way through her fragile mortal mind. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Not looking!" Alina agrees shrilly. She's not going to protest him stepping in front of her either. She grabs onto his armored shoulders and half-ducks behind him, concentrating on maintaining her spell, and on keeping anything else from happening. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

He has the fears of the city, possibly the world backing him up, so when the eye turns his way, he manifests the ring, and fires a string-thin single beam at the center of it, daring to look into the eye of madness to target his shot. Even just looking, his psychic shields and will take quite the beating, but they hold... and he still needs to keep this going a little longer. Just hold out, live, a little longer.

He clamps a clawed hand over his eyes in pain. There is the scent of burnt flesh in the air.

Cthulu tosses his head back and a earth shattering soul freezing noise comes out. Disembodied parts from human corpses start to fly around and swing at the two heroes.

Blood starts to rain down from the sky across the bay. Things begin to decay at the feet of the god as the world tries to turn insane on everyone.

Or is it all in their minds? It is hard to tell but the rain doesn't smell like pennies.

Alina gags and squeezes her eyes shut, pressing close against the other guy's back as she calls the water they're standing on up around them to keep the body parts away. She had hoped that it wouldn't "count" as another spell, but the way it feels in her mental grip tells her otherwise. Frost starts forming on the water around her feet.

She holds firm on her 'zen' spell, though. That's the one that's most important.

He hurt him?

That shouldn't be possible, not really.

But he apparently did, the power of the world's fear channeled through him did more than just get Cthulu's attention.

For good or ill.

Now they're fighting for real, all the power of chaos at the monster's beck and call. He trusts the girl to stay behind him and protect herself, as he focuses, diving back into the well of tricks.

Cthulhu can make it rain? He can call the thunder.

"SHAZAM! SHAZAM!! SHAZAM!!!"

Lightning crackles down again and again, while he stirs up the seas into an angry froth, battering the monster with stormswept waves, while feeling the blood rain trying to drag him into the illusion, warp his mind. And he can't let it.

	"RAAAAAWRooooo," Cthulu shouts in anger. The power makes him start to gather up water and force it at Ty and his new friend. Eye balls appear in the water staring out at them as the water goes rushing at the two heroes. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Oh, this is bad. A rush of water he can handle, probably, but his new friend? The one keeping him from doing who knows what?

He concentrates, turning his attention away from attacks on Cthulu, and manifests a trident to help him focus the Ocean Master's power. He parts the water in front of him, still taking a heavy impact, but enough he can stand strong and protect her, using the water he sloughs off to build a wall of water between the shore and Cthulu, all the while sweating even more profusely from the strain.

Alina's sure that the roar of the beast is going to shake all the teeth right out of her head. She clings more tightly to her new friend's armor with numbing fingers, knowing that she -- and maybe everyone else -- will be completely screwed if she loses her grip.

She's never had to maintain a spell this long in this kind of chaos before. Her magic feels restless in her mental-grasp, and it's taking more and more energy to keep it on track and stop it from bleeding out in wilder effects. She bites her lip to keep from whimpering, trying not to gag again at the taste of maybe-blood.
