​      Since the entrance to the courthouse was now completely smashed, all the cops and first aid people who'd been outside now felt free to flood into the lobby. The guards who were already in the lobby converged with them to form one group. Trevor went with them. The idea was to run with everybody right into the street.

     Never even got close.

     Klawmaker pulled two white balls out of his vest, one for each hand.

     He threw them in opposite directions so that they hit six feet on either side of where he stood.

     Upon impact, the balls dissolved into clouds of thick, white smoke.

     Okay, so Trevor was still invisible, but now the outline of his body could be easily seen in the thick, white smoke.

     The smoke wafted toward the ceiling. 

     The outline of Niki's legs could be seen for a fraction of a second before she rose above it.

     Still, it was enough for Hoby and Belle to be able to zero in on her.

     Looks like we're going to have to bash our way out of here after all, Trevor had just enough time to think before Klawmaker tackled him.
