Mizo says 'And I don't feel like getting eaten today.'
Prometheus says ' I'm Hurt. I really am.'
Mizo says 'Maybe it likes nubile young flesh.'
Mizo frowns.
Rachel says 'I don't feel like getting eaten, period.'
Actually, the body isn't eaten or marred in any way at all except for the gaping chest cavity's
Prometheus says ' You know, if I had a heart it would be bleeding for you two'
Prometheus says ' How about this, I'll go first. You two can provide backup'
Mizo turns her eyes to Prometheus, "As much as I want to feel your male bravado, really, I think we're better going in together, perhaps a circle, so our backs aren't exposed."
Frowning, Rachel leans toward the body. "Is his heart still in there? Morbid I know, but is it just killing for the sake of killing or is it hunting for something?"
Prometheus says ' Fine, whatever. I just wanna kill something.'
An excellent question from the young lady confirms that the heart is in fact missing from the body.
You say 'Oh, wonderful, it collects hearts, or it likes to eat them.'
Prometheus says ' God damn you people talk a lot. Look, Lets rush in, and kill the bastard'
A sigh escapes Mizo's lips as she peers over the corpse, shaking her head, "Cliché. At least we know it thinks. It has a purpose, and purpose can be figured out and destroyed. If it were just killing for the sake of killing it might be different.'
Prometheus says ' It was headed this way, so lets go before anything else gets killed Eh?'
You say 'Or, we could send you in as a shield, can you even feel pain? '
Mizo says 'That's not even close to appropriate.'
An unusually chilly breeze blows through the forest at that exact moment, causing a few blood-speckled leaves to stick themselves to you here and there.
Mizo says 'I'll go in first.... ugh.'
Prometheus says ' Oh Lovely.'
You say 'He was the one ready to die.'
Prometheus says ' I just washed this shirt.'
You say 'And ick, blood.'
Prometheus says ' Okay, I'm going in now. You ladies talk it out if you want.'
Mizo picks away one of the leaves, dropping it to the ground, before positioning herself towards the northwest, frowning, "Plans? We don't need no stinking plans. We got bravado."
Prometheus shakes his head and sighs before walking North West
Prometheus says ' Its moments like this that make me wish I had two shotguns. Then I can blow more stuff away.'
Another chilly breeze - but this one has a cold bite to it, and a woman's voice accompanies it! 'Stranglevine!' A burst of faint light from the northwest, and another chilly breeze carries in a swirling black feather.
Rachel says 'You with one is frightening enough. Try not to be trigger happy.'
Prometheus says ' Fight! Lets go!'
You say 'After you.'
Prometheus charges forth to the Nw Blindly!
Mizo says 'That... was...'
Shizuma says 'Let's go..'
Prometheus says ' We are Here already!'
Coraveda is not only a slutty dancer but also happens to be crouched on the ground, panting, with her rose whip drawn.
Having pressed her back up against a tree, Mizo frowns, glancing towards Coraveda, her arms folding tightly across her torso again, "So what was it?" right to the point.
Prometheus Brings his charge to a stop and looks at Cor "Show me the monster!"
Shifting her gaze towards the young woman, Rachel frowns. "Are you alright, and what happened here?"
Shizuma says 'Where is the being responsible to for this?'
Prometheus says ' Damn you people are redundant.'
Coraveda says 'Finally! Reinforcements! I was wondering when that worthless kid would reach Truce. I have no idea who she is, but it's not as nasty as you think...'
Mizo says 'Yeah, sorry we can all be "KILL KILL KILL".'
You say 'Kid?'
Mizo says 'She? Huh...'
Prometheus says ' Look, I dont care, Just show me what to kill eh?'
Mizo frowns, bringing her hand out towards Prometheus, white light flowing up through her fingertips, "Calm."
You say 'Do you know what the creature that did this is?'
Shizuma says 'Not as nasty? Which way is this being?'
Versalia has intervened - Lucky! Mizo succeeds!
Prometheus blinks at Mizo and dies down some, keeping his shotgun up but not being stark raving mad about it
Shizuma held the Shadow Sabre's hilt as he looked around keeping his senses about him
You say 'I'm glad you did that, he was starting to get annoying.'
Prometheus says ' I can still hear yaknow.'
Rachel says 'Sorry, I can't find it in me to care.'
Prometheus turns to Mizo "Come on, Just lemmie have one punt. Clear across the room."
Rachel says 'Don't even think about, tin can.'
Mizo shakes her head at Prometheus, that being her only response, eyes finding Coraveda thereafter, "You said it was a she...? What did this she look like?"
Prometheus says ' Shove it ya stuffed toy.'
Coraveda says 'If you're done bickering - it's some slut with wings.'
Mizo says 'Charming. What kind of wings?'
Eyebrow starting to twitch, Rachel glares at Prometheus.
Prometheus resists an urge to smack his butt at Rachel and turns back to Cor
Coraveda says 'Black ones; she's immaculate too, not a spot of blood on her! Long blonde hair, and ... some kind of strange weapon ...'
Shizuma says 'Are they Feathered or Bat like?'
Mizo says 'Prometheus? Do me a favour. don't shoot her until we've decided if she's actually a threat.'
Rachel says 'What did the weapon look like?'
Coraveda says 'Feathered. She's like some kind of ... dark angel.... holding a mass of pure, glowing blue energy...'
Coraveda says 'It's almost like an axe.'
Mizo says 'If it would save Matt to rip out someones heart, I'd do it, and not a damn one of you would stand in my way. We do things for strange reasons. I'd like to know hers.'
Prometheus says ' As you say. But I'm wondering why we are talking instead of stopping miss crazy.'
Shizuma says 'An energy Axe...this might be a tough one.'
Rachel says 'Ignore tin can over there, do you know which way she went?'
Prometheus says ' Hey, Fluff ball, Shut up before I get the urge to team kill.'
Mizo says 'Prometheus. Unless you want to meet with my fist halfway, you'll keep yourself right there. Enough of this. '
Shizuma says 'Cool it, all of you, we're gonna have to work together for this...this sounds like a problem that none of us can deal with ourselves alone'
Prometheus says ' Look, all I know is that some chick is insane, and killing things, and we are having fucking Tea time!'
Mizo turns towards Coraveda, "Were you able to see which way she went? If she has wings, and can fly, we'll be hardpressed to keep up, but if they're just for show..."
Mizo says 'Prometheus, you kill things everyday, should I kill you?'
Mizo says 'Oh, what was that? Yeah, I think that was you falling from grace. Shut it.'
Mizo says 'Do you know why she killed that man? Who's to say he didn't try to hurt her? YOu can't just go into a fight with thoughts like that. I want to know why she did it.'
Prometheus says ' Wow, I'm burned. Look, call me when you ladies are done chatting.'
Rachel says 'Do you mind if you tell us your name, yelling "Hey You!" won't be very beneficial in battle.'
Coraveda says 'If you all are done bickering, again... she's attacking things for no reason. I've been chasing her around - she was flying through the trees like it was nothing; birds were falling dead from them in her wake...'
Prometheus says ' The names Prometheus. Though I think I'm going back to the feilds again after this.'

Shizuma says 'So she could be anywhere in the woods?'
Coraveda says 'She would be if I hadn't just trapped her in that cabin moments before you arrived. Good timing, as usual!'
Coraveda points northwest.
Mizo shakes her head.
Shizuma says 'Alright, are you gonna come along ma'me?'
Mizo says 'I just can't get on board with killing someone without knowing why...'
Rachel says 'She's murdering the whole forest, enough reason for me.'
Prometheus says ' A gernade would be priceless right now.'
Coraveda says 'Oh, I'm afraid not - I'm still a bit weak from my previous excursion you see, and...'
Mizo says 'Tell that to the families of all the people you kill.'
Prometheus says ' Or some C4'
Coraveda gets a bit teary eyed. 'I can't find my dog.'
Mizo turns her eyes to Rachel.
You say 'I would, if I was a murderer.'
Mizo says 'Define mu-- actually ,lets deal with this, then I can tell you why you're all hypocritical bastards.'
Shizuma says 'If this creature is killing for no purpose...we should deal with this quickly...Ma'me...if I can I'll try to find your dog once we deal with this.'
Coraveda says 'Get on with it then, she'll break free sooner or later.'
Prometheus says ' I'm going then.'
Rachel says 'Do you have any idea where your dog went?'
Mizo says 'dog later, 'murderer' now.'
You say 'Nice axe, very foreboding.'
Mizo stops short as she sees Malice, holding an arm out to stop the rest, "Do me a favour and don't just charge in."
Shizuma says 'Winged one, why have you been killing without cause in these woods?'
Prometheus kneels down and glares at his target
Mizo smiles at Shizuma's words, but keeps her distance from Malice, dropping down to kneel near the southwest, though she seems to have positioned herself between trees to block an exit.
Frowning, Rachel moves behind a tree, ready to cast a spell if need be.
Standing here in the center of the cabin is Malice, the dark-winged woman. She is taking the very last couple of hacks at a brambly vine that has burst from the floor and entangled her.
Holding the hilt of the Shadow Sabre, Shizuma braces himself prepared just in case this should turn ugly..
Malice says 'That dog-girl did a good job with that vine - hey, who are you?!'
Mizo says 'Would you be willing to talk to me...? I understand that we must all look very imposing, coming here like this... but may I come nearer?'
The thought of 'If I can get close enough I might be able to calm her from a good distance.' crosses Mizo's mind.
Shizuma says 'I wish not to harm you if it's not nessicary...I want to know why you have been killing everything in the woods.'
Malice immediately hefts her glowing, massive battleaxe in both hands. 'By all means my dear, come as close as you like.'
Prometheus breaks open his shotgun and loads both barrels with buckshot
Shizuma releases the grip on his shadow sabre and lowers his guard to look unthreatening..."May I come closer as well?"
Glaring at the woman, Rachel grins coldly at her. " So you may cleave me in half? Sorry, deary, not how I plan to die."
Mizo says 'I'll take one for the team, then. I'll trust her not to cleave me in two...'
Prometheus says ' You realize shes gonna kill you if you get close.'
Shizuma says 'I shall too'
Rachel says 'By all means, walk to your death, its your funeral.'
Mizo takes a step forwards, pushing up from her kneel, her eyes finding Malice's position, "Then I guess I'll die and you can deal with Matt's wrath."
Prometheus edges up closer and gets ready to blow the shit outta Miss Psycho
Moving out from behind the tree, Rachel readys to cast a spell.
Prometheus says ' How bout this, Stay behind Mr. Trenchcoat'
Prometheus says ' He can be rebuilt. You cant.'
Even as Mizo steps forwards, the white light is flowing around and up her arms, spindly and faint, like mist. Though, it might be hard to discern from her robes.
Mizo says 'If I feared dying, I wouldn't have come.'
Shizuma says 'There's more to me than meets the eye...that's all I'll say'
Mizo murmurs beneath her breath, "there always is."
Rachel says 'Be on your guard, you know as well I that she will attack you, the killing spree proves it.'
Prometheus says ' Fine. But I claim the right to blow Miss Crazy's head off if you fail.'
Shizuma says 'If it comes to that...dont worry...I'll be fine'
Rachel says 'Not if I impale her, though, I suppose you could blow off her head to stop the pain she would be going through.'
Malice looks at Mizo.
Shizuma says 'Let's stop making plans to kill it may not be nessicary'
The thought of, "She kills several people, and knocks someone as powerful as that dancer on their ass, and they think brute force is going to bother her. That's funny." passes through Mizo's mind.
Prometheus says ' It will be though.'
Rachel says 'You are a fool if you can't see that she will attack.'
Malice raises her axe and swings, but comes to a stop just before it connects with Mizo's neck. 'W... what?! S, someone's holy aura is resonating through here. Y, you have a pure heart?! Impossible! My diviner will be rendered useless at this rate!'
Malice says 'This weapon was given to me by THE GODS for my mission to REAP THE SOULS OF THE UNWORTHY. I cannot hurt the one who is pure of heart, but you others look like you'd be fun to play with for a while!'
Mizo shakes her head, eyes darting to the large axe, and though she flinched, she didn't make any sudden movements, smiling faintly, "We don't want to hurt you. Well, I don't. Those two back there will kill you where you stand. I want to know why..
Prometheus says ' And you wanted me to NOT kill her?'
Mizo says 'Please, don't harm them.'
Shizuma says 'I wish not to bring harm to you if not nessicary'
Rachel says 'I may be unworthy, and so may every creature in this forest, but why did you slaughter them all?'
Prometheus says ' Hey, I'm a bastard, I'll say that now.'
Mizo says 'And now our friend makes sense. I just want to know the why for now.'
Malice stares at Rachel for a second. 'Hello? I just said it's my DIVINE MISSION.' - and flips her hair.
Mizo says 'What made them unworthy? Who are you to judge worth?'
Rachel says 'Oh? Your Divine Mission? As she said, who are you to judge the worth of our souls?'
Malice hefts her axe again and growls. 'ENOUGH talking! Now, you die, and you will be sent to my masters in the afterlife!'
Prometheus says ' Okay, Can I kill her yet?'
As Malice took the time to heft back her weapon, Mizo thrust a hand out, not to slam against the girls chest, but to hover before it, letting that flowing white energy of calm to flow through her.
Mizo says 'I wont let them hurt you anymore than I'll let you hurt them... please Versalia, let this work.'
Rachel says 'For your sake, I hope Versalia favors you.'
Shizuma pressed the switches hidden in his shoulders asuming his full reploid form, taking the Shadow Sabre in hand preparing to fight the woman but wouldn't release his full morals just as yet.."Wait, There is no need for this."
Prometheus says ' Well Crap. Just when I though I would get to kill something too'
Rachel says 'You might just get your chance, if this doesn't work. '
Prometheus says ' What, Death on wings? I've been through that before.'

Rachel says 'Lovely, we're going to be eaten by an overgrown chicken.'

Mizo says 'That old man is still chopping wood?'

Rachel says 'What a wonderful way to die.'

Everything here is unusually still, and silent - and, like the messenger said, nothing seems
to be around. In fact... there are blood spatters in the grass.

Mizo frowns, dropping down near a patch of grass, her fingertips skirting the blades,
touching the blood, "This isn't good... not at all..."

Prometheus looks around and sighs "Damnit! We missed all the fun"

Mizo brings the bloodied fingertips up to her lips, tongue darting out to taste it, "This...
really isn't good, I think this might be human... then again, I don't lick much blood."

You say 'Do you think the woodsman is still alive?'

Prometheus looks at Mizo "Why lick it in the First place?"

Prometheus says ' That can't be sanitary.'

Upon closer inspection, there is more blood to the northwest, and there are deep gashes in
one or two nearby tree trunks - like an unfinished lumberjack disturbed by something,
perhaps; or perhaps something else left them...

Mizo says 'We're in the woods hunting a 'demon' and you're talking to me about 'sanitary'?'

Prometheus says ' Calm down lady. Lets just follow the blood.'

Mizo pushes up, dusting her fingertips off on her robes, leaving smears of blood along the
pristine white. She glances towards Prometheus and shakes her head, waltzing towards the
northwest, only to be stopped in her tracks by the body, "Kami..."

And indeed, as you mentioned, the body of the old hiker lies here with a slashing-type wound in his chest.

Making a face at the mess and all the blood Rachel looks around. "I guess we know what happened to him..."

Prometheus pulls out his shotgun and grins "Oh this is gonna be fun. It looks like something big did this."

Prometheus says ' Buckshot or slug?'

Mizo shakes her head, "Versalia's sake... that's... absolutely not a wound made by a human."

Mizo frowns deeply, folding her arms tightly across her torso in beneath her bosom, "Okay,
charging into the woods is one thing, charging after demons is another. WE don't even know
what we're up against."

Prometheus says ' We are up against something that kills people. Hows that?'
Malice wields her axe above her head in both hands and cries out 'Noble Edge!' and with a surprisingly quick swing, causes a hurricane gust to blow you all out of the house and into the open southeast forest!

Prometheus rolls and springs up at his new location, hopping back and getting his shotgun back up

Shizuma after being blown out of the cabin, flipped himself and landed on his feet skidding a few feet away before stopping. "What power..."

Tumbling backwards through the trees, Mizo toppled onto her backside, skidding and bringing up hunks of dirt and divets with her. Her robes were in disarray as she sat there on her arse for a moment, bringing a hand out, the energy still flowing through her, and sending it across at Prometheus, "Bless."

Eyes widening in shock at the power the woman has, as Rachel is blown out of the cabin from the attack.

As the energy slams into Prometheus, granting him her blessing, Mizo stands, sending the same flowing white out towards Rachel, and in turn, towards Shizuma, "Versalia, Lady of Luck, grant them your blessing... we need you."

Prometheus brings his main double barreled cannon to bear and fires off both shots of Buckshot, screaming in Malice's direction
Malice puts a hand to her mouth, and laughs. 'Aha, ahaha, ahahaha. Your Gods are false! You ask for help, but you will receive only death!'

Mizo says 'You tried that once...'

Mizo says 'Didn't work out so well, seems your divine gift fails where my faith begins.'

Focusing on his target, Shizuma held his ground and prepared to counter her moves once it started. Looking at her, he felt that perhaps as much as he wanted to avoid violent confrontation, it would appear that he would now have no choice. "If we must battle, I will give my all!"

Glaring coldly at the winged reaper before her, Rachel yells, "Petal Blast!" causing leaves and petals to, hopefully, blind her vision.

CRACK! PING! PING! PING! Buckshot scatters everywhere as Malice shields herself behind the massive blade of Skadi.

Malice says 'Pathetic!'

Malice looks at Prometheus. 'I'll kill you first.' Then she turns her gaze to the baby demon in her sights, you. 'Utgardian! You die next!'

Mizo draws herself up to stand fully, dusting off her robes after granting her blessing, her head canting to the left, "What about me, false reaper? When is my turn?"

Malice says 'I'm saving you for l-'

EWW, PFFT SPUTTER! Malice is hit in the face with a blast of annoying foliage.

Malice shakes with rage! 'Now I'm REALLY going to smash you, pipsqueak!'

Malice pulls her axe back, lifting herself off the ground a bit with the force of the swing, then hacking it back forward in front of her. 'Now, filthy Utgardian, ignorant priestess, blind gunner and pompous swordsman! Feel the void in your soul!'

Malice unleashes a wave of frost energy - 'Ice Rift!'

Prometheus grins evilly.

Gritting her teeth at the barage of ice and snow, Rachel brings up her arm to shield her face.

"Shit. Barrier!" and for Mizo's little group, her 'party', a barrier of white surrounded them, first looking like mist, but not before shards of ice flew through at each of them in turn. Her barrier would hold, but not for long... and blood trickled down her cheek from an errant shard.

Prometheus grins to himself and pulls out a new purchase of his, An actual Long Sword instead of a raiper! He uses said sword to cut down two huge ice chucks coming towards him in half and flings his shotgun at Malice, before charging forward and slicing wildly at her.

Grinning at Mizo for her quick thinking, Rachel uses her whip to lash out at the winged reaper, assisting Prometheus in his blind attack.

Mizo's barrier slightly deflects the attack, but not all of it - at least it shouldn't knock you backwards now.

Bringing up the Shadow Sabre, Shizuma blocked the remnants of the ice blast as best as he could until it passed. Once free, Shizuma rushed in kicking in his extra dash boot speed, and speed forward going to strike with a high speed lunging slash.

Mizo shot a hand out towards Shizuma, letting the divine light from her hands flow through his blade, hopefully infusing it with a minute blessing, enough to make it so that it wouldn't shatter in a single swipe, "Bless."

Malice meets Prom's blade with the haft of Skadi, both of them locked together for a moment, before she spreads her wings and forces him back. 'Better than I expected, but I'm still bor-'

WHACK! A whip snaps Malice's leg. 'WOULD YOU STOP THAT?'

Malice moves back as Shizuma advances on her, so that Shizuma must move in front of Prometheus to do so. She flaps her wings, flitting back and forth in front of him. 'Can you hit me? Can ya? Huh?' Woosh, flap, flap, shwoom, moving around!

Malice suddenly swoops out of the sky with Skadi in her arms like death on wings, slicing down at Shizuma - her diviner slices into his arm, but his sword also draws blood...

Malice retreats warily, dragging Skadi in one hand, and holding her bleeding arm with the other. 'Burn.'

Prometheus growls at Shizuma and dashes around him, charging at Malice and trying his slash insanly idea again.

Frowning at Shizuma's wound, Rachel moves through the trees, getting behind the winged reaper, and then slashing out with her whip.

The sound of the trees rustling was cut through by the screams coming from Mizo's throat as she dove through the air towards Malice.

Gripping his blade he felt the cut of the blade on his arm...he felt a tinge of dispair...he felt the fear he had inside about not being fully accepted for what he was. Looking at the wielder of the blade that cut him, Shizuma felt that perhaps this is what she felt inside. Shizuma looked at her again and gripped the Shadow Sabre and dashed forward in the hope to subdue instead of kill. Shizuma slid in and attacked her with fast three kick and then double slash combination.

Prometheus grabs his shotgun back off the ground and breaks it open, loading up a slug and some more buckshot before dashing to the side, trying to find a clear angle to shoot from.

Malice takes the triple kick from Shizuma, but when he tries to double-slash her, he finds Skadi coming down from above like a vengeful judge and shattering the blade in his hands.

Malice says 'I guess I'll just have to make it obvious to you how inferior your weapons really are.'

Malice is also hit dead-on by the shotgun blast - but withstands it, displaying only some scratches! 'Even children fight better than this!'

Wait, what's this? A handful of black feathers have swirled gently to the ground around Malice. THWACK! THWACK! A couple more jump into the air as a certain demonling's whip snaps into her feathered backside.

Malice says 'Ouch, ouch! My wings!!'

Malice spins around, grabbing ahold of the whip - barbs digging into her palm and all - and mightily yanks Rachel from her position and snaps her tumbling into Shizuma.

Malice smiles as she sees the rage building up in Mizo, and raises her axe. 'Ignorant priestess, you are so misled in your faith... truly, you worship a false idol! It is your blind conviction which repels my blade, not your 'GOD'.'

And then, all the rage drains from Mizo's face, speaking mid-air with her hair fluttering around her in mahogany relief against the darkness, "You think I do this for faith? You think I do this for religion? I do this for my friends. I do this for love."

Malice says 'Fool! Love is an emotion that more powerful than you have done without - I will show you how easily love's tender petals wilt beneath the wrath of sorrow!'

Malice rushes forward with Skadi raised as though she is going to slice into the Priestess flying at her. At the last moment, she moves the axe out of the way and FACEBASHES with Mizo!

Mizo sinks her teeth into whatever flesh comes nearest first, letting Malice's face collide with her own in a bloody smash, both their cute little girl faces set with bruises and blood instantly.. but damn if Mizo wont bite off her nose.

Rachel groans as she's slammed in Shizuma, feeling pain shoot up and down her spine.

Malice is obviously wounded, but not very disheveled. Blood has been drawn from her right upper arm and chest, and her wings are roughed over, but her hair and clothing are still blood-free and immaculate.

Saturated in blood, both bodies came toppling fully to the ground, Mizo's own rolling through the dirt, only adding to the grime that covered her clothing. Malice is immaculate, and Mizo is a mess.

Malice separates from Mizo, rolling away from her, and grabbing Skadi off the grass - but she's on her stomach.

Prometheus takes his chance and dashes to Malice, raising his sword and bringing it down at Malice's neck once close enough to do so.

Having to drop the hilt of the broken Shadow Sabre quickly caught Rachel sliding back he quickly put her down and ran towards the grappling females. Seeing her grab her weapon, Shizuma quickly dove down pulling Malice into a grapple pinning her down by placing his legs on the arm and back of neck and his arms locking her free arm in a hold, Shizuma told her.. "Enough, is enough."

Mizo says '... don't look now, purity... but my blood is mingling with yours.'

And Mizo lifted her bloodied face, still somehow pretty through all that, and winked.

Malice suddenly releases the full glory of her black wingspan, shoving both Shizuma and Prometheus away from her as she rights herself, and wipes the blood from her face with the back of her arm. 'Your blood? Ha, hahaha! It has nothing to do with your..

Wiping her face again, Malice begins to squint. 'I... I'M BLIND? WHERE ARE YOU, BITCH? I'LL KILL YOU! I'LL KILL YOU!'

Malice begins swinging Skadi around at random, completely berserk. Everyone say one random word in OOC, and hope you get a good luck roll to avoid being sliced!

Rachel blinked, trying to clear her head, before slowly standing. Seeing Prometheus and Shizuma rushing toward the two grappling females, and fail. "So she's blind, perfect. Mizo, would you like to finish this?"

Prometheus gets up and grins, motioning to the others to stay completely quiet.

Mizo and Prometheus are both out of range, however, the blade of Malice's energy weapon almost grazes Shizuma - and he feels the wind on that one! - but it ends up catching Rachel in the recoil.

Mizo says 'Little girl... I tell you what. If you can kill me... the rest of you can battle it out.'

Mizo says 'But if you can't kill me... you have to stop this and listen.'

Eyes widening in horror, Rachel feels an intense cold spread from the slight scratch received from Skadi, bringing up horrible memories.

Mizo pushed herself up, slowly, blood spattered across her face and along her robes. She takes a step forwards, then another, "Here," and there she stands, waiting.

Malice has her back to Mizo, and is so enraged, she can't possibly find her foe. 'I'LL KILL YOU WHEN I CAN FIND YOU BITCH, YOU HEAR ME?! I'LL KILL -ALL- OF YOU RIGHT NOW.'

Malice raises Skadi in the air, screaming in blind rage. 'Angelic Overskill - Blue Sophia!

A hand pushes out behind Mizo, finding Malice's feathery wings, the light that's been flowing through her now flowing against Malice, and a single word is uttered, perhaps that only Malice could hear, "Calm"... but not until AFTER that, of course.

The temperature immediately drops, and the ground is covered in a hard frost. Suddenly, a gust of wind stirs up a violent blizzard which rains through the area! Even more dangerously, Malice's weapon has shattered and the glowing pieces are darting for the party members!

Prometheus growls and burys his sword in the ice, grounding himself while he lines up another shot from his Shotgun

Gritting her teeth at the biting wind, Rachel attempts to dodge the flying shards.

Quickly judging the directory of these blades, Shizuma, blasted his dash boots at full power in a direction that would take him between and beneath the two swords, as he pushed forward and threw his fist aiming for the stomach of the attacker. Making him look like an oval shaped snowball. Shizuma shot as far forward as he could trying to end this with one high speed punch to the stomach..

Prometheus sees the shards a second before impact, and gets a shard in the left chest, and another in his shotgun arm (My left one!)

Malice stumbles back, clutching her stomach, as she is struck. Her wings spread, and she takes into the air as her eyes clear. 'WORMS! When we meet again, I'll be serious!'

Malice spits down onto Mizo.

Malice shakes her fist at Rachel as she flaps off. 'I'LL GET YOU MY PRETTY, AND YOUR UTGARDIAN TOO...!'

Prometheus says ' HAVE FUN WITH THAT YA PSYCHO BITCH!'

Rachel couldn't help but let a laugh escape her throat at the winged reapers words.

Mizo says 'see you in heaven, sunshine.'

As a matter of fact, the shards of Skadi are GONE, but Malice didn't have it with her when she left. Huh!

And with that, Mizo blew a kiss towards the sky, one eye closing, and the tale-tale heart poking out from her fingertips as it blew.

Prometheus looks around and sights what seems to be a nice tree, and walks werily over to it, before resting and gazing at his party.

Panting, Shizuma dropped to one knee looking over at the rest of his party members... "Is Everyone okay?"

Rachel says 'I'm fine, my back is sore, but I'm fine.'

Mizo says 'I've had worse injuries. I think my face is bleeding.'

Coraveda has arrived from the se.

Prometheus dosen't say anything and seals of his left arm, stoping the flow of oil and pain.

Shizuma says 'I'm sorry about that, my body doesn't have much give in this form. I'll see if I have something to bandage that with.'

Coraveda strolls in, her own wounds already bound and tended to. 'Welly well, it's a bit bloody round here, innit?'

Prometheus says ' I'm gonna need a new shirt.'

Catching sight of the dancer, Rachel nods in her direction. "Glad you could join us."

Mizo says 'It's fine. I'm just glad I bought you all some time with my theatrics. Who'd have thought my faith could save me. I believe because I do, not because it'll keep me safe.'

Mizo shrugs helplessly.

Shizuma pushed a button on his cannon arm and changed back into the human form that they first met him in. "We've all had better days...the priestess needs some attention."

Rachel says 'Not to be rude, but I believe she can heal herself, if she's not too exhausted.'

Shizuma says '"I hope so..besides our gun toting friend over there, she seems the most hurt out of all of us."'

Mizo says 'I'm hoping it'll scar, actually. Nothing grotesque, but enough so that everytime I touch my face I remember what I learned.'

Prometheus shuts down a few more internal sectors and manages to stop the oil from flowing out of his chest, along with losing the ablility to use the left side of his body

Mizo says 'Smashing your face into a reapers is not wise. Though technically I knew that before hand.'

Coraveda says 'Ooh, the priestess is the one who came through the least hurt?... and that furry little thing? Well, I can't say I'm surprised. I always said you should never send a man to do a woman's job. Or any job for that matter.'

Rachel says 'Furry little thing, excuse me? '

Coraveda says 'Yeah, you there.'

Coraveda pokes it.

Mizo says 'Miss. If you're calling something a furry little thing it probably isn't wise to poke her.'

Rachel says 'My name is Rachel, and don't poke me, or you'll lose your finger.'

Mizo says 'Shit, if you called me a furry little thing I'd bite you when you poked me.'

Prometheus lethargically opens his mouth and closes it, looking for something to say, and failing.

Coraveda says 'Ohh, how cute. If I had a dollar for every time I'd said that, I'd buy my own furry little thing.'

Shizuma says '"If anything I got off with some pretty good dings and a nice cut in my arm. As far as I'm concerned gender doesn't determine the heart of the fighter."'

Coraveda pats Rachel on the head.

Rachel says
'...'

Glaring, Rachel kicks the dancer.

Coraveda raises her eyebrow at Rachel, rubs her shin for a second, then turns to Prometheus. 'A reploid, ugh. Hunk of metal, useless can. At least he won't be feeling the nastier side effects of that blade. They don't have a conscience, you know.'

Prometheus twitches and does the best he can to glare at Cor

Mizo frowns, tugging at her robes and pulling them up over her head, tossing the mangled heap of cloth aside, leaving Mizo in a pair of panties and a bran, her chestnut hair tumbling over her chest.

Shizuma says '"Excuse me?! NO CONSCIENCE! How dare you insult me and say reploids have no heart!"'

Coraveda says (OOC) 'mmm bran'

Prometheus says (OOC) ' Shiz, Your the represintitive of my race, So Oggle at Mizo for me.'

Nearly choking, Rachel's eyes widen as Mizo removes her clothing. "I see you're not shy."

Coraveda says 'Who said anything about a heart? You're a fascimile of life. But if you feel that scrap metal should be repaired, by all means, he looks like he'll be just fine.'

Mizo says 'Two reploids and women.'

Mizo says 'not that I'd be shy otherwise. It's not as if I'm naked.'

Mizo says 'She got my robes all bloody. I need to buy new ones. Perhaps ones with slits up to each hip on the sides for easier movement... hum.'

Coraveda tilts her head, gives Shizuma a fake smile, then turns to Mizo with her eyes rolling. 'So, why ARE you the only one who isn't completely thrashed?'

Mizo rubs her face gingerly, "My face says otherwise, but I think a lot of this blood was hers. Apparently my faith stopped her weapon."

Taking off his trench coat, Shizuma held it out to Mizo. "Perhaps, you could use this."

Rachel says '8.'

Shizuma says '5'

Prometheus says ' Faith... How... Interesting... I'll... Have... to get.. some.'

Shizuma says '"I was lucky this time...I might not be next time. And after how this ended I know it's not over yet between all of us and the Reaper woman."'

Coraveda cracks her rose whip in the air, hitting a nearby tree to seemingly no effect. She holds out her hand, and a necklace falls from the branches above.

Coraveda says 'I noticed this walking up. Who's Mizo?'

Mizo holds up her hand, the other still touching her face, "That'd be me. The neutral priestess."

Coraveda says 'Well, it's got your name on it. Right there.'

Coraveda gives a choker hung with a single stone to Mizo.

Mizo looks at a choker hung with a single stone in her inventory.

Mizo says 'Thanks. Lets just hope this isn't the way she plans to nuke my faith.'

Mizo tugs the necklace around her slender column, tightening the choker significantly.

Seeing the dancer use a whip, Rachel's eyes widen. "You have a Rosier as well?"

Prometheus struggles to stand, using shis shotgun as a crutch, he limps over to his sword, still buried and the ground, and sighs.

Prometheus says ' Damn... Just... Got that.'

Coraveda says 'Well, I'm going to meander on back to town and take my sweet time getting a report to the Militia Captain.'

Mizo tips her head back as she rain starts dripping through the trees, letting it pour down over her panty clad body.

Mizo says 'Sure, sure.'

Coraveda stops and raises her eyebrow. 'Fuzzy knows what a Rosier is?'

Mizo removes her weapon, peering down over it.

Gritting her teeth, Rachel glares at the dancer. "Yes, I do, what of it?"

Coraveda says 'Oh, mild surprise, that's all. Most random forest creatures don't know what a weapon is, let alone a Rosier. ... ... ... Do you have one too?'

Mizo says 'Prometheus, if the thought even crosses your mind you'll find out exactly how deep my faith goes.'

All this is said without Mizo even raising her eyes from her weapon.

Prometheus says ' Love, If I did, I would reopen the huge bleeding holes in my body and kill myself. But somehow I think it would be worth it.'

Taking the hilt of his shattered Shadow Sabre, Shizuma looked at it and stared at it, then turned to notice Mizo just staring down at her weapon.

Holding back the urge to slap her, Rachel nods. " I am NOT a forest animal, i am a demon, and I do have one, my Blood Rose." As she says that, Rachel holds up her whip.

Mizo leaves se.

Coraveda reflexively puts a hand to her mouth. 'YOU have the Blood Rose?'

Grinning at her reaction, Rachel nods. "Yes, I do. That Vampire wasn't too much of a challenge."

Coraveda says '... Well, that certainly is a surprise. Rachel, I'll be seeing you again.'

Coraveda warily dashes off into the woods.

Coraveda leaves se.
