Takel grimaced -- as much as he could with a beak, anyway -- and dropped to one knee just in time for a cinderblock to sail past his head rather than crash into it. The demon in front of him let out a roar, which soon turned pained as his friend Storm plunged a pair of daggers deep into the demon's right shoulder.
It was a distraction they needed. As the demon shook Storm off, Takel finished tracing the magical pattern. He had managed to reconstruct the original spell-circuit that had kept the demon bound beneath the earth, only to awaken once more when a construction project accidentally damaged the seal and grounded the circle. He'd made a few adjustments of his own, of course, adding an understanding that only comes from knowing how to write a Dho-Nha curve generator in Python.
Storm righted himself in the air and prepared for another charge, but Takel waved him off. "Stay back!" he yelled. An abjuration powerful enough to send a demon of the Fourth Circle back to its home reality had a lot of potential for collateral damage if anything went wrong, after all. "I don't want you getting caught when I send Five-Eyes back where it came from."
The demon laughed. "Many mortals have made similar bosts over the aeons," it said in a booming voice. "None were successful. Your ilk cannot craft magic intricate enough to banish me."
Takel raised a hand, and a blue diagram flickered into being around him. How did that vampire hunter put it? Ah, yes. "That was then," he said. "This is now."
