Snippet #2024447

Daniel smiles at her and reaches up to take the sunglasses off. "For now," He says, looking her in the face and placing one arm around her shoulders, "Stay still and calm." Without waiting for her response, he slips into the shadows, lazily reaching out with his mind for the target shadow. To Rylie's perceptions though, it would seem practically instantaneous, one moment they were in the warehouse and the next they were in an alley just outside of it. Within a few seconds Daniel jumps again, this time landing them inside an abandoned building. The pattern would continue, teleport and pause for a couple seconds, teleport and pause.

After about a dozen such teleports, Daniels breathing would start coming harder and trickles of sweat would slide down his face. Finally, he would teleport them into an empty room, it looks like an office of some sort, where the only light comes through the windows. "One minute." He says, breathing heavily and leaning against the wall, having let go of Rylie. His eyes would appear normal again, since he let go of his power.

After resting long enough for his breathing to even out again, he would stand up again and repeat the process, a bit under two dozen teleports and a rest, he was clearly pushing himself now as each rest came longer. Finally, a little over half an hour after starting, he would nearly collapse against the wall. "Alright," he gasps out, "We... we're going to need to walk for a bit..."

Once he was breathing evenly again, he looks up at Rylie and replaces the sunglasses. "We are about half way there now, maybe a little less... Not sure how long it will be until I can teleport like that again, likely over an hour. We should be away from most of the fighting though." Sounds of combat would be audible, but distant enough that they were not a legitamite threat.
