"Excellent!" she says and takes up a fighting pose before running towards Dynamo and aiming to slide between his legs, aided by the train's momentum, and hold the staff horizontally to clothesline his legs.

CLANG!

The manuever worked just fine, and now Nailah was on the other side of the Dynamo....though the stick hitting a big metal boot basically just made a loud noise, and not much else.

"Fudge!" she 'curses' and pulls her knees to her chest to give Dynamo a kick in the butt with both feet while pulling on her staff.

The kick briefly staggers Dimitri, but a man in a large robot suit is going to take more than that to knock over, and he turns around, reaching to grab the Sphinx in a couple massive armored hands.

Nailah tries to do a cool martial-arts jump-from-prone-to-her-feet and into a forward leap away from Dynamo.

That really shouldn't have worked -- but it did, because Nailah was an awesome superhero lady and not just some random schmuck.

The Dynamo charged at her as soon as she had gained her footing.

Nailah spins around and charges at Dynamo in turn and before they clash she puts the tip of her staff down and jumps, aided by the staff and her wings catching some air, high enough that she can try to land a kick in Dynamo's face as a stepping stone to carry her over him. And as she does she calls out to Will.

"Giant hammer!" she shouts and swings the staff over her head and down towards one of Dynamo's shoulders.

The staff increased in speed as the head bulged out, forming a solid steel hammer, too heavy for Nailah to lift. Fortunately, she was NOT lifting it; she was bringing it down, HARD, on the metal shoulder of the Dynamo.

This clang was much louder, and send the Dynamo down to one knee.

Nailah lets the head of the hammer fall to the roof of the train, giving her what's basically a pole held in place by the weight of the hammer and she tries to spin around the handle for momentum before kicking Dynamo's side with both feet to try and topple him over and off the train.

The kick connects, leaving Dynamo wobbling precariously on the side of the train. He started using jet thrusters to right himself, but he hadn't quite managed to regain his balance just yet...

Nailah lands and tries to bend the handle of the hammer down with her. "Owill, more flexible hilt!" she shouts to facilitate it and once her feet touch the ground she let's go of the handle, aiming to let it snap back and right into Dynamo.

Will's long shaft turned to rubber, and *thwocked* backwards as Nailah released it, smashing into Dynamo and sending him off the train.

He'd be alright, but at the speed the train was going, it would take him some time to catch back up.

"Hah! Victory for Sphinx and Owill!" she takes a moment to gloat to nobody until the train rumbling beneath her feet snaps her out of it.

"Right. Still gotta stop the train." she clears her throat a bit awkwardly. "Back to Owl shape and follow me!" she informs Will and makes her way towards the front of the train.

"Ha-woo," Will confirmed, flapping alongside her.

There was still one guy driving the train, but it was a regular mook -- the Dynamo had, apparently, been the big bad of the simulation.

Nailah makes her way all the way to the front and rappels down along the windshield with a rope made of Will and just quietly stares down the mook at the helm until he brings the train to a stop.

As the train ground to a halt, the simulation froze.

"Ha-woo," the owl confirmed, as if it had been obvious from the start.
