Action: 1450 Mitchell Road

[ooeeooahah]

[ Gunshots do not sound like a car backfiring, to those that know the sound. Ilsa doesn't have sense enough to run away from the sound, but she at least has enough sense to come at the garage from an angle, under cover. ]

[ She's listening in through the open door, trying to get a sense of who's who inside. ]

(Engie is usually a very easy-going person. It's really quite difficult to make him angry. He's been spit on, blown up, back-stabbed and yelled at, but through it all he has never once raised his voice or snapped back

Action: 1450 Mitchell Road

[ooeeooahah]

[ The taunting by the doppelganger helps Ilsa a great deal. Besides helping pinpoint which Engineer is the copy, it also makes her angry. She's not as furious as Engie, but it does help her tap into his anger for more energy. ]

[ She doesn't have a traditional range weapon, but she has a few tricks up her sleeve.... like levitation cantrips. Crouching in the shrubs by the door, she concentrates. ]

[ Anything in the garage smaller than the average household garbage can that isn't tied down or on Engie's person is now flying at the doppelganger at high speed. Most of it will just be annoying, but the metal pieces might cause some damage. ]

[ Too bad Ilsa isn't watching out for the doppelganger's toys.... ]

(The moment she gets near the shrubs, the hidden sentry swivels towards her, red light blinking. She has a second to react, because a whole lot of bullets are coming her way.)

Action: 1450 Mitchell Road

[ooeeooahah]

[ One second. ]

[ There's a lot you can do in a second. ]

[ You can swear, or you can shield. ]

[ Ilsa doesn't like to swear. ]

[ But it does take some of the power away from her attack on the doppelganger, and she is not quite quick enough to deflect all the barrage, taking some hits to her shoulder. ]

Hrngf!

(When the metal started floating around and attacking fake, Engie didn't really know what to do but stare. His clone was just as surprised, and for a moment Engie thought he had'em

Action: 1450 Mitchell Road

[ooeeooahah]

[ The rapid shift in the Engineer is startling, but there's no time to contemplate it. ]

[ Ilsa's focused on incinerating the sentry. She might have been living with Pyro too long, considering how quick she is to light it up. ]

[ Not much she can do about the shoulder for now, but there is one thing she does have to take care of, considering how painful the emotion storm is now... ]

Make it clean, hon... please...

(Engie tilts his head when Ilsa makes the request. He seems to consider it...

...until he promptly blasts his fake's right leg off, piece by piece. Starting with the foot, then the knee, and then the thigh. Each shot is punctuated by his doppelganger's shrieks.)

I would like ta oblige ya, Doc, but this man needs ta be an example.

Ya run out of leg room, son? Well, ya still got yer arms, ain't cha?

(And then Engie starts with the right arm. Flecks of blood are splaterring his shirt and his face, but he doesn't even seem to notice.)

[ooeeooahah]

[ The pain from the doppelganger is horrible, to the point Ilsa isn't reacting to her shoulder being chewed up. ]

Enough, he's... aughngh!

[ She's been reminded that there might have been more than one sentry built when another clips her ear as it rounds the corner of the building. ]

[hardhat_truckie]

(It's all sweet music to Engie at this point. Until Ilsa gets hurt again. At which, he'll scowl

[ooeeooahah]

[ Ilsa's in a good deal of pain, but the problem is she can't really tell Engie that he's the source of a good bit of it. The berserker rage blood-joy is bone-deep in him, when she realizes he might not be in control anymore. ]

[ She curls in on herself, under the boxwood at the corner of the house, wishing she had the skill to be invisible, willing herself to be still. ]

[hardhat_truckie]

(Eventually, after cutting off all his clones figures and blinding him in the other eye, as well as slicing off his tongue and breaking his ear drums, Engie stands over the fake. Blood is splattered all over him, dripping off his clothes, especially near his sleeves

[ooeeooahah]

[ The rage and blood-lust seem to run out of him like water. Ilsa is able to stop shaking by the time he gets back to the garage, and sit up a bit. ]

You okay now, hon?

[hardhat_truckie]

(He nods and extends a hand to help her up. It's covered in blood, which even makes Engie flinch.)

I've got a dispenser at the garage. It's not fully up, but it should do the trick. Y'all alright now, Doc?

(He's doing his best to keep his emotions in check. All he wants to do right now is jump into the shower and wash up. He wonders, dully, whether he can actually wash the blood off his hands.)

[ooeeooahah]

[ He's not all the way okay, she can tell that much by the touch, but her shoulder is starting to be more than a background ache. ]

Good, because I can't heal this myself, yet.

[ She lets him lead her to where he's set up the dispenser. ]

[hardhat_truckie]

(The dispenser's all set up, so he gets her a chair and lets her sit next to it. The dispenser gets to work immediately, patching up the wounds. He doesn't really want to face anyone at the moment, so he decides to take care of the rest of the booby traps in the house, before Miss GLaDOS or Tach stepped on any of them.)

There's probably some mines or stuff like that in the house. I'm just gonna go and disable'em.

(He heads out of the garage. He wouldn't blame her if she left the moment she healed up.)
