Pav opened the garage door with her abilities, while Victoria had used her water abilities to get through it and simply reappearing on the other side. "Sorry Pav, but I'm unfortunately not as small as you anymore." Victoria murmured softly.
"It has a lock on it... But, of course it does." Pav whispered in frustration and Victoria was looking over at her, before she jumped when the garage door closed behind them.
"Hey. You will be okay, Pav." Victoria said and she was crouching down to her level as she shook her head. "If all else fails us in this situation, Jordan can rip the garage apart and forcibly take the dog. Lock and all, if it really becomes necessary." Victoria said and Pav was looking at her before she nodded at the words. "Do it, for your brother." Victoria murmured.
Pav rested her hand on top of the robotic K-9's head before then, it was suddenly wide awake and Victoria could hear it, the problem before it even began and the dog was shuffling around.
"Pav. We need to make it sleep somehow and we need to do it now, Jordan's trick with the phones and stuff... That stuff can only last for so long." Victoria admitted and Pav was looking at her, before she nodded as she turned back to the dog.
Victoria watched the doorway and when Connor came in, Victoria nearly hit him and he held his hands up in surrender. "Uh sorry." She said and then Connor shrugged at her, before they were both turning back around to help Pav focus on the dog.
"Hey, what the hell is going on?" Connor asked and Victoria hit him in the stomach, glaring at him for just how badly he was about to handle it with the kid.
"I can't do it. It's not working. They keep calling him and they're gonna come here and find us. I can't do it." Pav said and she was struggling, Victoria could feel how quickly her heart was going. "We need to leave, right now."
"Pav, slow down." Victoria said and she turned around to look at the door. "The sooner you calm yourself down, the sooner that you can access your abilities better. In a time like this... Sometimes, there is no time to be scared." Victoria said and Pav looked at her. "I have been in this situation before Pav, and there is nothing like it. But you will need to calm down and focus." Victoria said softly.
"Victoria is absolutely right on this again, Pav. You can do this." Connor encouraged her as Victoria went back to watching the door. "I... We are not going anywhere. Okay?" Pav still looked uncertain about it and Connor was nodding. "Just try and make it sleep." Connor quietly said and Pav was reaching out a hand to the dog again as she rested it on the dog's head and now then, it went back to sleeping mode.
Jordan lifted up the garage door with her part effortlessly done, while Connor got into the driver's seat and they were driving off to the Towers quickly.
Jordan was following them into the building, while she slammed the door behind them quickly.
Connor was carrying the sleeping dog and then when they got into the room, Victoria was shaking her head. "Unbelievable." She said and then before she could even do anything, Garrett had knocked Connor into the ground and Connor coughed, groaning as he was winded and in pain.
Victoria's hand shot out and Garrett began to choke, before a beam of light hit Victoria in the arm and she screamed in a sudden burst of pain. Garrett was able to breathe again as Victoria clamped her hand down over her burned arm, gasping in pain.
Donnie stepped out of the shadows behind Garrett and his hands were glowing faintly with light, as Victoria gasped in pain. "What the hell was..." Victoria looked over at Jordan, who was the only one of their little group who didn't look surprised. "No." She said and Jordan sighed.
"I'm sorry, Tori." Jordan said and Victoria was shaking her head, before she felt pain hitting her from every direction. But by far the worst pain, was from her best friend. "I didn't want to have to do this, but you two for some reason... You just couldn't leave it alone and now, this is where we stand." Jordan said and she held up her hand, as metal snapped off of the walls and went crashing into Victoria, pinning her against the wall and locking her into place.
Victoria's hands were purposely separated as Victoria was unable to move, unable to be changing into water. Her pain blocked her abilities, specifically when she was burned and she was unable to heal herself, if she couldn't bring her hands together.
Jordan looked like she was about to cry herself, while Victoria was already forcing herself with all her might, to hold back her tears that she felt rather desperately like she needed to unleash.
