Megan Gwynn has posed:
Christmas is coming, and things are looking festive in the park, where many trees have been strung up in colorful lights. However, in a quiet less populated corner of the park, a group of fir trees stand looking rather forlorn and wilted, dying, decaying. They lack any sort of decorations, either because no one ventured in this dark and slightly creepy corner of the park, or because they gave up on these sad and dying trees long ago. But it seems someone tried to decorate one of the trees with what looks like a lone golden medallion, a beautiful decoration with an etching of a dragon on its surface, surrounded by a ring of Japanese characters and flames, it looks unusual enough in many ways if one gets close enough to examine it.

Megan does not immediately notice said medallion as she steps into the area, more engrossed in the dusty little spellbook that she acquired in a little second hand bookstore. Right now she is eager to try out a little revival spell on the trees, hoping to breathe new life into them.

And so she begins to read, weaving a spell around the ring of dying trees..Surely this cannot go wrong...

Satana Hellstrom has posed:
In the distance, well away from the lights had been the cries, howls, and shrieks of children going on about something or other for the last half hour. The type of cries that could carry for miles and miles by sheer force of child. Finally, after a period it had turned over into blessed, blessed silence and peace had come over the area.

Casually walking along with a spring in her step was a light skinned, dark attired woman being followed over by a set of flying purple butterflies. She would hold her hand up and over, a butterly landing on her wrist and her taking it to her lips as if about to kiss it. The moment it touched her lips it would go fuzzy and vanish, along with the others that had been floating along with her.

Her eyes would close and she would seem to be gleeful, a hop in her step.

Billy Batson has posed:
Billy Batson was told buy Megan she'd be around. She was giggly and excited and secretive. In other words a fairy. He wasn't sure where to find her. He could do it in an instant as Shazam but looking for her was half the fun. So he'd pulled on his new red winter coat, parked his bike and trudged into the park. It was freaking cold. Then again he'd been to Iceland as Shazam and Billy. He could deal with cold. Midway through his search he bought two large cocoas from a food truck for them.

Megan Gwynn has posed:
Megan Gwynn closes her eyes, totally focused on her spell..And at first it seems to work, breathing new life into the dying trees. Suddenly those broken branches heal and straighten; up, the decaying brown leaves turn bright green and they spring to life. She opens her eyes and claps her hands with glee.

"Yay, it worked!"

But all too soon, her magic reacts with the hidden medallion, awakening it's long dormant magic. It glows and hums deeply, and suddenly reacts to her chaos magic, surrounding the vibrant trees in an evil red aura as it takes over.

"No! What's happening!" she balks, backing away but..Suddenly the trees grow hideous faces, pulling their roots out of the ground and *walking* towards her, quickly swarming her as they reach out with magical roots trying to entangle her..What are they gonna do, suck her energy dry? This does not look good...

Satana Hellstrom has posed:
Oooh! What's this, even more fun? THe demoness goes to head over in that direction, a gleeful sort of movement in her step. Oh, it's one of those girls on the team that she's sort of working with at times. She would tsk over in Pixie's direction, her demonic features softening. "Sloppy, sloppy." She would debate whether to help the girl or not and eventually let out a sigh.

"You seem like you could use a hand." Satana would seem rather peppy over at this. Seeing whether it would be accepted or not or Pixie was the type to try and play this off as she could handle herself. Ready to of course go in if she was asked to.

But none of her surface magic was immediately visible as PIxie seemed to be almost panicking.

Megan Gwynn has posed:
Megan Gwynn isn't totally helpless as she grins her teeth, summoning her soul dagger and swings it around, tracing a pink arc of light around her. For the most part keeping the trees at bay as they eye her weapon warily. However, she can't be everywhere at once and one grabs her from behind, wrapping powerful spiky branches around her arms and legs, preventing her from fighting back. She's not too proud to ask for help plus Satana seems vaguely familiar as an ally from somewhere.

"Help!" she calls out to her, but the powerful demoness' presence does not go unnoticed by the demon trees. One snarls, reaching out towards her wuth long spiky branch vines, trying entangle her. Another draws in a deep breath, and exhales a cone of icy wind and freezing snow towards Satana.

Satana Hellstrom has posed:
Satana Hellstrom would just glower over at the demon tree approaching her, "I am Satana Hellstrom, Heir to the Seventh Realm of the Infernal Abyss, Princess of the Netherdomain, and Queen of the Society of the Wretched. Bow before me and I'll make your nonexistance agonizing for an eternity." Her hands would go up and in front of her, even as she would move to make an incantation around herself.

First, a barrier of hellfire to hold off the tree - if the demon was fused over it, the normal demonic immunity to hellfire of others would be nulled.

Pixie she goes to cast her hands through the air, her fingers twisting about as she would take a deep breath as her horns would flash into appearance, heeled feet turning into hooves and a long, barbed tail appearing behind her. Clawed hands woudl go up and try to cast a veil of infernal blaze around Pixie to hopefully melt the vines away from her.

Megan Gwynn has posed:
It seems the powerful dark magic keeping the trees in thrall is not of a demonic nature, but still evil and powerful. Either way, Satana's magic is enough to disrupt the spell, briefly stunning the trees and freezing them in their tracks. The infernal blaze easily burns through the vines, although Megan yelps as she breaks free, trying to avoid getting burnt in the princess should the fire spread.

"Meep! Thank you! But, I hope this doesn't consume the trees..." and she tightens her grip on the dagger, peering around. "Something is possessing the trees..Up there!" she points towards the glowing red medallion, having drawn at least some power from pixie as it grows ever stronger, struggling to awaken the trees once more. But before Megan can fly towards the medallion, more vines shoot out and wrap around her legs, dragging her down. At the same time, another tree face awakens, and launches another freezing blast towards Satana!

Satana Hellstrom has posed:
Satana would glance up and over at the trees, her eyes wide at what she was taking over as a moment of just casual taunting and showing off her abilities instead turning into an actual fight! Now her pride is over on the line when she has to face up with having to actually throw her magic into a fight or fleeing from something hse wants no part of.

Here, it is her pride and her temper that overwhelms short sightedness and makes her stay over. "Let go of me you $##!!" as she goes to swear at them over in a abyssal language that normally cuases distortions in reality from such obscenities, but thanks to the powerful demons present (other than your's truly) has no real effect at all as vines and thorns snap about her as well!

Billy Batson has posed:
Billy Batson has a vague idea of the magic around him, he's been exposed to it enough. He recognizes that cute cry for help. Yes. she yells cutely. Can't be helped. The cocoa goes into the trash. A bolt of lightning smashes through the sky earthward. A red and white form streaks into the sky. "Pixie?" Shazam yells. Everyone in the park hears it. His magical sense makes it easy tov spot demonic magic.

Oh and what language.

Shazam dives down on the fight.
