Fandom High Graduation Ceremony, Class of 2014, Early Saturday Evening [Part 2]

As the last new graduate sat down with their diploma, the plants around the stage began quietly rustling.

Mega-Gro - the new company that had been hired to take care of the grounds - had guaranteed that their landscaping would be the brightest, and more importantly the biggest, that anyone had ever seen, and they were not mistaken in their claim. Out of the flowers, the creatures that had been living in the foliage began to grow, and the ceramic gnomes that had been scattered throughout the plants as decorations began to grow too. Then, after not too long, they began to blink, and move.

Somewhere, Tiny was either doing a fist-pump of righteousness, or having a heart attack.

There wasn't much time before the gnomes grew to human size, and began moving towards each other to group up. True to Fandom graduation protocols, an invisible, impenetrable dome came down to separate the graduates from the rest of the audience, as giant crickets, toads, slugs, ladybugs, and other creatures poured out from between the plants.

"All winter long, we were left to weather the snow and ice and chill, while the humans stayed warm inside their homes!" one of the gnomes cried. "Now, we will be abandoned to the elements no more! Gentlemen, attack!"

Sparkle hadn't brought popcorn, no. But he did bring a flask, which he was pulling out just for this occasion. He raised it up in a toast as the bugs and such readied to attack, and then took a swig.

A drink and a show. This was the best way to spend an evening.

"I can't believe I got this far in school and this is what does it," Jessica sighed. The way she fired a web at a gnome to yank it towards her was more annoyed than anything. Seriously, gnomes?

Anna had been expecting something like this, yes. She very carefully took off her robe, hat, and shoes, and placed them, along with her diploma, on her chair. And then she changed. Her skin went grey and ashen, her eyes filled with dirty water, and her white dress was soaked red, the blood spilling down her legs. Anna Dressed in Blood was in the building, and somewhere inside her Anna Korlov hoped she wasn't about to scar anyone's relatives for life by having to rip a giant frog in half or anything.

The gnome let out a catlike hiss and spat at her. Normal saliva, mind, not anything weird.

It was followed by a weird, gnarled gnome-fist.

"Rude!" Jessica didn't appreciate the spitting, so she grabbed at the gnome's hand to block his punch, then pulled him in hard for a punch to his face. Stupid gnome.

Lucky for the gnome, he felt no pain! Or maybe he did, but his red hat was impervious to it. That might've explained the headbutting.

Jessica bent backwards to duck the headbutt, fired a web at either side of his face, then pulled down as she threw a kick at his nose.

Crack.

The gnome pulled away to reveal a sudden streak of red paint on his nose. Little cracks spidered out from it across his face.

"AaaAAAaaaAAah!" he cried, and tried to tackle Jessica's legs.

"Gotta tell you," Jessica said, rolling backwards away from the gnome before launching herself forward to punt the thing in the face. "This is the weirdest fight I've ever had."

The gnome went flying for several feet, hitting the ground with another crack. When he sat up, there was a hole where his nose had been.

He hissed again, feral.

Sorry, gnomes, but you were made of clay and, well, earthbender.

"Shush," Jessica said, firing two webs at his face. One for his mouth because the hissing was annoying, and one into the nose hole, to see what would happen.

Well, that was unexpected.

Not that the surprise stopped her from instinctively sending a water whip towards the nearest bug, only to have it splash uselessly against the dome.

"It seems Korra and her classmates may have to handle this on their own."

Mako only barely kept himself from uselessly sending a burst of flame following after Katara's waterwhip. "But we have to try to help!"

The gnome went cross-eyed.

He wobbled in place - then he wobbled ineffectively in Jessica's general direction.

"Katara's right," Tenzin said, completely calmly, ignore the fact this area of seating had just gotten a lot more windy. "There's something resistant to our bending and we may do more harm than good."
