Re: Eddie/Melody
[Eddie? Eddie made a calculated risk and failed. He needed to roll a ten and ended up with three, so here he was with Dane breathing down his neck. Still, he was cool. Collected. Smiling. Eddie had a little bit of a death wish that really got his adrenaline going. When was the last time he thought he was going to die? Eddie rolled the dice again:] Do you really think you're more powerful than your own daughter?
[He inhaled, hearing the crackle of energy. Killing her would solve the problem, but he wasn't that guy anymore, was he?] She's got everything you ever wanted. More power than any of us can comprehend. And, you really think she's going to let you keep using her? Oh, Dane. [Eddie laughed and turned suddenly, booting up the small bit of alien tech he found in Tethys and sending a blast of energy at Melody.
If he had it at full power, he probably could have killed her. Instead, it simply was no match for what Melody could do. Not even enough to stun.
Eddie's glasses started flashing colors and he gasped for air. Something was wrong.]
