Catches tree at range

I saw eyes widen, and turned to look. A man had opened his mouth, and had something that looked almost as tall and thick as a telephone pole spearing skyward from his mouth. Blood streamed from the sides of his mouth, his jaw clearly dislocated, and more fluids painted the length of the pole as it continued to rise. It reached its maximum height, and then forked, the upper half splitting out into two equally thick portions, a giant 'Y' shape. Each branch then forked into two, and forked into two again.

"Go," I said, sparing only a momentary glance for the people I'd been stopping. I saw them start to run away.

The man reached up, his fingers dragging along the blood-slick shaft of the trunk of the fractal tree he had vomited up. Each movement of his hands was slower and weaker than the last.

I flew toward him, to do what I could to help, even though I wasn't sure what that could possibly be.

The 'tree' toppled, and it was only because I was already on my way toward him that I was able to intervene. I reached out for the falling tree, and my power was quicker to touch it. Phantom fingers bit into the surface, fracturing the chalky material. With flight, my bare hands, my power, and my aura pushed out to give people a little more incentive to get out of the way, I controlled the tree's fall. It broke into chunks on contact with the ground. One of the people with new powers was pinned beneath branches, but it didn't look like he was hurt by the contact.
