"Okay sweetheart," Shiro replied with his boyishly cute smile.
((Anyone recognize the gibberish Sienna used for the distraction? I have the classic clear text version if anyone is interested.))

OOC: Flesh? Archlich? Where?
EDIT: lol
Statesman said let there be heroes, and there were heroes.
Lord Recluse said let there be villains, and there were villains.
NCsoft said let there be nothing, and there was nothing.
Virelai just couldn't help but stand there, still sucking her thumb, blinking at the water constantly dripping off of everyone's body and saturating Archlich's clothing. It was almost as if the room was suddenly turning into a swamp, due to the amount of soaked kids dripping and sloshing.
"...Something tells me that much water isn't supposed to be on the floor."
"Waaargh!" Was heard roared, and suddenly six more figures were on Archlich.
Naga didn't know what was going on, but decided to join in the pouncing.
"RAAAA!" She howled as she lept up onto Archlich's back and clung onto his shoulders.
"Me wussy?" Anna shouted at Shiro. "I beat up any stupid boy! Me and Kathy both!" She added, pointing at the miserably wet Kathode who was dripping wet and sparking with red electricity.
Blightlord turned back to Grime, anger clear. "Why did you not see this befow? Damn this child's speach to hell!"
He reached into a pouch, pulling out a purple elixer. He downed its contents in a single gulp, and tossed the glass to the floor.
"There. Now, explain to me how you did not recognize such a simple illusion?"
"I apologize my lord, in this state..."
"I want to further excuses. Let us move on."
They tried the same thing again. They first sent Sludge to open the door, then Muck and Guck tossed their swords in to break enchantments before calling them back.
Once more, Muck entered first.

"Bwighlor, we wish to extend our services to you." Kaos smiled behind his visor. Stupid zombie men. Radeaotr meanwhile fired at the door wtih his radiation, and Static stood there, doing nothing.
'I heard that,' Grime mentally told them.
"You're services are unecessary. Now stand back before you trigger an alarm!"

"That's ok then."
Snap.
"FIRE!!!"
Suddenly, what looked just like Burning on fire stood just outside Archlich's office smiled. "Im telling Ms. Essex!"
"I think not!" snarled Blightlord, tossing several potions at him, ones meant to freeze in ice, gag, and cause their arms and legs to lock up.
Grime quickly summoned shadowy tendrils to bind his legs to the floor, along with one lodging firmly in his mouth.
Sludge tossed little balls of ectoplasm, trying to hold him in place, as Muck and Guck beat him with their plastic swords.

Experiment frowned at the child now calling girls wusses. As if THAT needed telling.
"Hmph... 'Miss Cutey'... 'Sweetheart'... Hmph. Brat. Talking to Miss Essex that way... Hmph."
Then, of course, he blushed, realizing he was speaking out loud. "Uh... Right... Um, do you want any help with the snacks, Miss Essex? I can cook some stuff! Pweaze..?"
"Suck up!" Cobalt shouted at Experiment as she shot him in the back of the head with a nerf dart. "And where's my hammer?"
Danica sneakily slipped the hammer into the back of Ghoul's shirt as she hugged Archlich.

*Poink*
*Grumble*
"You know, it could be that I am not a suck up, but actually CAN cook. I know recipes from Greece, Rome, and, of course, Britain. However, I am sure you would be much more intewest- Interested in simply firing nerf darts at meh, wight?"
Cobalt stared at experiment for a moment with signs of contemplation going on within her head.
"Yeah." She said. "But this satify quicker." Then she shot him again.
*Poink*
"...You're dessssspicable..."
Archlich's eyes suddenly flared, the brightness causing those children in front of him to cover their eyes. Then, in a flash, he was just as suddenly gone, the children that had been hugging him falling into empty space.
"Where'd he go?" Ghoul said angrily as he pushed Toy off of him.
"WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING!?!" roared a voice from upstairs, barely recognizable as Archlich's normal rasp.
"Uh oh, o_o" Toy said as he sat up. "Somewon tried to get in his room."
************************************************
Archlich glared at the children in front of him, his gaze alternately flicking from one to the other, trying to get answers from just that stare. He reached down and picked up Blightlord and Kaos, the ones who looked to be the ringleaders, in each hand and brought their faces close to him.
"YOU ARE NOT ALLOWED IN MY ROOM!" he thundered. "ALL OF YOU! IN THE CAGE! NOW!"
Before the babies had a chance to react, all of them were suddenly gone, teleported into a playpen cage set into the back og the center room. This was the place Archlich put children who had been bad. Of course, only Archlich did this as Essex would never dream of doing such a thing. Which, in Archlich's opinion, made me a necessary balance.
The multi-colored bars of the cage, while flimsy looking, were tempered with some of Archlich's finest defensive wards. They were there mainly to keep children's powers, which could sometimes be quite powerful, from getting out and injuring someone in their anger at being put in time out.
Statesman said let there be heroes, and there were heroes.
Lord Recluse said let there be villains, and there were villains.
NCsoft said let there be nothing, and there was nothing.
Grime's expression was... well... not pleasing to Blightlord as the Lich stared at his master in a cage.
"When the child is ruined, the Lich is next," he muttered under his breath, pacing back and forth, watching the bars carefully for a sign of a gap in the spells.
He drew a small vial of acid, and testingly poured a drop onto the cage.
Muck and Guck meanwhile were furiously trying to break it down with their plastic swords.

The spells were flawless, the cage resistant to acid, and unharmed by the plastic swords. A quartet of glowing numbers suddenly appeared on the inside of the cage and started ticking down from 10:00.
EDIT: Dur...

2.0 turned toward the cage, frowning. "He couldn't possibly... No... No child-care guy person would actually BLOW UP the children they are caring for... Right Miss Essex? This 'Arkleek' guy wouldn't do that... Right?"
((Edit: Heh, where would you be without us Khell?))
Naga fell to the floor and landed on her tail after Archlich suddenly disappeared. The startled child began to whimper.
Essex shook her head with a sigh, scooping up Naga.
"There, there, sweetie..." she said soothingly, holding her in one arm while straightening out her tail in the opposite hand. "Are you okay?"
Looking down to Experiment, she nodded. "Mister Archlich is a little stricter than I am, but he won't blow you up." Turning around, she sighed at the wet hallway.
"Virelai, would you help me clean up this water, if you're still interested?"
In the meantime, Rosalind nudged Ghoul.
"Looks like someone got caged." she smirked.
She herself had spent extensive time in that cage. It was good to see someone besides herself in it.
In the meantime, Vanessa was still outside. She was staring at a group of toys she had pulled out of the toy box.
Japancakes.

"I don't fight girls," Shiro began, before sticking his tongue out at her, "So there."
Under his breath he muttered, "Kissing is better."
"Gweetings, Phawaoh!" said Moonscribe, seeming to appear out of nowhere. He floated to Archlich's shoulder and hugged him as politely as he could muster.
Schizo appeared quite literally out of nowhere, having been invisible. He grabbed Archlich's hand viciously and hugged it, sticking burrs into Archlich's body .
Hal appeared next to Archlich, and touched his back tentatively with one finger.
