The crowd around them erupts into utter panic when not two but four mutants suddenly launch into fighting. People push and shove to get towards the exit or flee further into the building, disregarding the safety of most of their fellow humans and since quite a few of them are either old, out of shape or both there's no lack of injuries to go around as people trip, press against the doors not meant to accommodate 20 people at once or just straight up elbow each other to try and get ahead. As a result the area around the two assailants clears out pretty fast, but only for maybe a couple steps.
Shane manages to launch himself at the woman reasonably well, but slamming into her he finds himself stopped short by a feet or two, his impact only somewhat cushioned by the purple force that stopped him. Her head whips around, momentarily distracted from her target(s?) and with a glare at Shane the aura around her flares. The fringes of the leafs that are part of Shane begin to smolder as the energy builds up for a moment before it forcefully explodes outward, throwing him into a pile of people while also knocking down everybody in a 10 yard radius. The explosion is almost eerily quiet, unlike the rest of the room, which erupts into even louder panic.
The bulky man Will has attached himself to seems relatively unfazed by the explosive discharge of energy, although he's close enough that it makes his clothes flutter in the shockwave. He takes the punch to the face and stares back at Will, clearly angry on top of his thick naturally disgruntled-looking brow. He lifts his arm up, his cheap suit-jacket tearing in numerous places, and slams his fist, Will-coating and all, into the ground once, twice, three times. The concrete under the thin carpet begins to crack while the movement continues to tear away at the man's suit until it's mostly in tatters. Part of the reason for that are the dark-grey rocky or maybe bony protrusions sticking out of his skin all over his torso.
