Izzy huffed as she adjusted Pam’s weight, her arms and legs trembling from the strain. The cacophony of shouts, clashing steel, and Mikhail’s guitar swirled around her like a storm, each note pressing harder against her fraying nerves. Her heart leapt into her throat at the sickening sound of Raia being struck.

Izzy’s head snapped up just in time to see her companion stagger under the force of Shen’s brutal kick. "Raia! Don’t let tha’ doe-eyed bitch get ye’!" she shouted, her voice cracking with raw fear. The sight of Shen standing amidst the carnage, poised with unsettling grace, sent an icy chill rippling down her spine. Her gaze flicked briefly to Zeke and Mikhail, standing firm like sentinels between her and the chaos. A pang of gratitude flared amid her panic, and she gave a faint nod in their direction. "Good lads," she murmured under her breath.

"Hold on, ya mad woman," she added softly for Raia, a plea as much for herself as for her wild new friend. But Pam’s shallow breathing tugged her focus back down.

Izzy staggered, her knees hitting the dirt hard as she eased Pam to the ground. The unpaved road bit into her skin, the coarse grit grinding against her palms, but she ignored it. Her breaths came ragged, her chest burning with the effort, as she muttered to herself, "Focus, ye fochin’ lush." She shook off the rising panic, forcing her trembling hands into motion. Cradling Pam’s head gently, she fumbled at her hip pouch, yanking out a small vial of tincture.

She uncorked it with her teeth, spitting the stopper to the side, and tilted Pam’s head just enough to let the liquid slide past her lips. "Oi, love, c’mon now," she murmured, her voice softer but urgent. "Need ye’ tae drink this, yeah? Just ah sip, tha’s et. Take et easy, er I’ll have tae give et tae ye’ mouth t’ mouth." A flicker of humor sparked in her tone as she tipped the vial carefully, watching the bitter liquid trickle into Pam’s mouth.

"Y’know," she began, her voice trembling as she shifted Pam’s head into her lap, her fingers brushing dust from the rabbitkin’s pale face. "We’ve only been crewmates ah few days, but yer already ah sight better’n the last lot ah was stuck with. Bunch o’ backstabbin’ bilge rats, they were..." Her words trailed off as her attention snapped to the ominous hum of Shen’s weapon. The doe-eyed woman loomed like a thundercloud, her predatory stance dripping with bloodlust. Izzy’s stomach twisted as she caught sight of Raia still locked in the thick of it, relentless but battered.

"So I’d like et ef ye’ stuck aroun’ fer a bit longer," Izzy continued quietly, her tone soft but strained. Her free hand tightened into a fist, nails biting into her palm. "But ah’m sorry, Pam. I think I’m gonna have tae let ye’ lie here fer now and deal with yer old pal meself."

The tension in the air thickened, pressing against her chest as Izzy reached into her satchel. Her fingers closed around a slender, glinting needle, and she drew it out slowly, the steel shimmering faintly in the dim light. She rolled it deftly between her fingers, the action a familiar comfort.

This wasn’t her first fight—not even close. The needle was her ace, a precision tool she’d honed over years of practice. One well-placed jab to a pressure point, and even the toughest bastard would crumble like rotten timber. Sometimes it paralyzed them outright, other times it left them too weak to swing a blade. Either way, it evened the odds.

Standing slowly, Izzy dusted off her knees, her eyes locking onto Shen with a mix of sharp calculation and barely concealed fury. She took a step forward, her movements loose and unsteady, like a woman two drinks past her limit. Her shoulders slumped as if she could barely hold herself upright, her footing uneven. Izzy swayed to one side, her head dipping low, then shifted again, her body lurching awkwardly. It was an unorthodox, almost comical rhythm, like a puppet with tangled strings. She did this, slowly closing the gap between her and Shen, the sway was deliberate, calculated.

Izzy’s feet skimmed the ground in a stuttering pattern that seemed entirely unpredictable, her balance shifting with each motion. One moment she staggered forward as if about to fall, and the next, she spun on her heel, narrowly avoiding a loose barrel in her path. Her movements were fluid yet erratic, a strange dance that kept her center of gravity elusive. She tilted her head as if her neck couldn’t support it, her free hand flopping uselessly at her side. But the needle in her other hand gleamed faintly, rolling seamlessly between her fingers. Izzy’s movements drew her closer to Shen, her erratic pattern like a wave washing unpredictably toward its target.

Then, with a sudden burst of speed, Izzy closed the gap. Her body twisted sharply as if she might collapse mid-step, her knee dipping low. It was an awkward motion that left her almost defenseless—until she pivoted on her back foot, using the momentum to swing herself upright in a sweeping arc.

Her arm lashed out, the needle aimed with pinpoint precision toward Shen’s shoulder. It wasn’t a strike meant to wound; Izzy’s aim was surgical, targeting the pressure point at the base of the shoulder joint. A well-placed jab there would leave Shen’s dominant arm numb, weak, and unreliable—a crucial opening for the others to exploit.

1. Tincture - Medicine F : grade F 0 post cool down
2/3 Vipers Strike] Flexible E, Acurate E, Incapacitating E, Acrobatics F, Acupuncture Needle E, - Izzy closes the distance between her and She. And attempts to strike Shens shoulder with the acupuncture needle to paralyze that arm.

Dreams. Dreams. Dreams. Always with the dreams. People always trying to put her to sleep. People always trying to tell her to stop hoping. The question Shen so generously graced her with repeated in her mind like a broken record as she struck, distorting and accelerating with every repetition.

But as Raia briefly held her abdomen, her bone-covered feet digging into the wet, blood-stained earth, she realized her chase had been parried by a mere deer hoof. The thought was maddening, even as she felt parts of her distorted insides twitch from the pain of displacement. Blood had sprayed out like an endless fountain as Shen made quick work of the sheeples around her, and the tips of her obsidian claws had so fragilely shattered like glass, yet still, Raia could only see red. After all, it didn't matter how she bled. They'd put her back together like they always had. She just had to win. Or else, risk disposal.

Holding her face in her hands, she wasn't sure when she had started hyperventilating. Between her shaking fingers, she saw someone else enter the fray. But it didn't matter. She only had one target right now.

Her eyes burned from the light as she felt her body shift, her flesh tearing and sewing itself back together as it enlarged, and her exoskeleton weaving in and around her body like constricting snakes. Her fins enlarged to the size of artificial, rubbery wings, scratching and itching her skin as she roared, a deep and ethereal sound reminiscent of a deep sea echo.

So suddenly, the world seemed so small. And for the briefest of moments, she felt at peace again, before her golden irisies gleamed, and she violently struck out at Shen's torso twice in a downward strike, with each of her right claws the size of her head.

With Izzy having thrown out money to request the aid of anyone around who wished to earn a little bit of extra money, one random completely inconspicuous not-stand-out-at-all somewhat-cloaked individual would lightly turn their head to the ruckus. Originally having acted like the entire scene going down just didn't exist in the slightest, the promise of payment was indeed something to catch their interest. A soft hum, they tilted their head and considered the ongoings. It looked incredibly dangerous, something they shouldn't have any reason to do with. The others who attempted to fight for money didn't look to hold out well. But then again...

"Hm. A payment? For this? Coin does hold value, and I do quite enjoy value... " they overly ominously muttered to themselves, stroking their chin with their finger and thumb as they did their best to speak in a deeper voice for whatever reason. Coming to a consensus in their mind, they glanced back to the direction. The temptation was truly there, yet it felt like a completely pointless endeavour. Holding silent for a moment, they sighed to themselves.

"Oh heck with it, I couldn't miss this" they answered to themselves, deciding to drop their shoddy cloak that they just kind of had for no reason. Considering their actual appearance, it probably looked most like they just picked it up off someone else or found it lying around. It probably wasn't even a cloak, maybe just an old crusty bedsheet or broken potato sack. Giggling to themselves, they gave a little twirl and put their hands on their hips. They had no clue what was going on, but there was money on the line. That, and the entire ordeal just looked too stupid not to partake in.

"Oh boy, three dollars~! Can you imagine what I could buy with three whole dollars!? Probably like, a chocolate coin or a wooden spoon or a... like, maybe a small plastic duck. That'd be cool~" Yz chimed to themselves, almost forgetting the entire conflict that seemed to be unravelling outside of a bar. Humming to themselves, they lightly tapped their mask in thought.
"Oh Yz, how are you going to help these... I don't actually know what any of these people are or what, but they promised me like three dollars... well they promised money, but it's probably three dollars-" the jester rambled to themselves, wasting more time than they should before realising they should probably assist in some way so they could indeed earn their well-deserved three dollars. Patting themselves up and down to look for a weapon stored on their purpose, they did a few turns and eventually spun around too hard and fell flat on their butt. Fortunately, the weapon they found herself looking for fell out from underneath the back of their bright red ringmaster coat like a comedic hammerspace.

"Oh, there it is. I was wondering where I put that" Yz mentioned, calmly turning to the Dillon Aero M134D minigun that had fallen onto the floor. Standing up and picking it up in their hands like it weighed nothing, they hugged it to theirself and rubbed their face against it.
"Oh you're so beautiful. I would've loved the XM214 Microgun since it's like, your cute little sister, but how can I ever be disappointed by something as big and powerful as you, my dear big friend? Don't worry, big daddy, we'll spray all your ammo all over the bad guys~! Innuendo!" Yz cheerfully chimed, giggling to themself before calming down.

"Oh wait, I talked about your cute little sister and then made like three innuendos. That's- like not my intention at all. Ignore that one, cut that one. GOOSH, I didn't even come up with that joke, that was stolen from Borderlands, I just wanted to use it. Gosh I should plan out these inserts a lot better" Yz sighed to themselves, facepalming for a moment and sighing as they shook their head. But enough time for ruminating over terrible considerations for her first post. Wait-

"Oh come on, I did that in my first post, that's like my legacy. That's it Yz, when they remember you they're gonna remember you as the 'innuendo clown' good job you're so talented wooow" Yz muttered under their breath to themselves, tightening their grip on their weapon and lifting it up. Looking to the Shen Lu weirdo who Yz believed was the person who was the enemy that they were getting paid three dollars for, they gave it a quick thought before waving to the woman who had offered out the money. Giving Izzy an aggressive wave, she shouted.

"HEY THERE LADY-WOMAN, IT'S OKAY YOU WILL BE PAYING ME THREE DOLLARS IN NO TIME AT ALL, I AM HERE TO DO BARE MINIMUM EFFORT FOR THREE WHOLE DOLLARS. DO YOU UNDERSTAND WHAT I COULD BUY WITH THREE DOLLARS? MAYBE LIKE- A CONTACT LENS... MAYBE... WAIT, I CAN'T WEAR CONTACT LENSES. UM, MAYBE LIKE, TOOTHPASTE. HOW EXPENSIVE IS TOOTHPAST- WAIT I CAN'T USE THAT EITHER. LADY, WHAT CAN YOU BUY FOR THREE DOLLARS?? ALSO, WHY IS THERE A GIANT FISH PUPPY? CAN I PET IT??" Yz yelled despite the world's nonexistence of these elusive 'three dollars', lifting their Minigun in Shen's direction.

"Okay, show-time~! Lets hope I don't mow down innocents in the process. Imagine if I put a bullethole through a poor innocent rubber duckie, or some poor passerby with three dollars... or in fact, the second one can have one. That means that I can have their three dollars since they weren't using it~" Yz cheerfully spoke to themselves, deciding to let loose with the minigun they... for some reason, had. It was time for some kind diplomacy.

Zeke “Mors” Valdain

“Ms. Sangrea, keep yer head!” Zeke shouted from the back, looking towards this assassin that had been sent for their rabbit. He looked up, seeing Stella return and grinning. He put his arm out for her to land on, picking her up with his free hand. “Now, I have a very important job for ya lass, stay here and keep Pam safe.” He ordered, giving Stella a rewarding scratch behind the ear before placing her next to Pamela.

He turned to where the assassin was, drawing his cutlass with a grin. “CHARGE HER LADS! COVER OUR SEA SERPENT N’ DOCTOR!” He shouted, the windows of the inn bursting with h the Bladesmen, while Zeke took his opportunity to line up his shot, firing at the assassin with his flintlock.

“Shit”

Jane doe was a lot tougher than she looked, even with the power of music her fire power was overwhelming. Dispatching it multiple fighters in one fell swoop was no easy feat, hell, just who did this bunny girl piss off?

The elf would glance over his shoulder, relief would come over his body a bit noticing that she was conscious. She was shaken up a bit but her eyes were open which was good. Seemed like the Doc wasn’t just a huge flirt and came with some skill.

“How ya feeling Pam? Dont tell me a lady like yourself is pushing daisies already.” Mikhail asked, testing to see just how conscious the bunny truly was. Considering the doc went off to fight, Mikhail took it upon himself to make sure Pam didn’t keel over while she was gone.

The sudden transformation from Raia was and unexpected variable, hell, Mikhail questioned whether or not she was in control at the moment.

“Captain, did you know she could do that?” He had to ask, the nervousness in his eyes hidden behind the blue shades on his face. Judging by how Zeke didn’t bat an eye to rally behind his crew mate, this was something he was aware about. The quiet ones seemed to always be full of surprises.

Hopefully, Raia’s transformation will be enough to shift the battle into their favor. Most of Jane doe’s attention would have to be turned into her, allowing for the rest of the rest of the group to work.

Next from the corner, was unexpected, a fucking clown with a mini-gun and they were bat shit crazy! Only asking for three dollars was a tell-tale sign of where that midget clowns mental was at. At least they were on the his side. Guess his hunch was right, not even 10 minutes since he asked to join and shits hit the fan. “Kill that bitch and I’ll double your pay.” Not like Mikhail knew what a dollar was but they could figure out the specifics later.

“Aye aye captain!” Mikhail smirked as he played two harsh notes, breaking the rhythm of his song abruptly. As the notes rang into the air, the elf’s guitar would glow a ghostly blue color. As balls of energy manifested itself around him. He would continue playing more harsh notes as the ballad slowly devolved into a decrepit song.

“You call for some artillery?”

Mikhail would finish his harsh tune off with a power coward, sending the balls of magic energy sailing in the air towards the doe.

Clearwater Cove

Silverdale Streets

Characters: Shen Lu, Pamela, Zeke, Izzy, Mikhail, Stella, Yz, Yabani (Knocked out), Zeke's Minions

"Papa! I brought friends!" Stella said, the little dragon no longer alone as she'd brought the rest of Zeke's crew.

Around Pamela, she could hear a cacophony of concerned voices.

Stella appeared before Zeke, running along the ground before hovering in place through the air. Staring at Zeke attentively and determined in the face of an emergency, she felt comforted by his words and guidance during this uncertain and clearly deadly encounter. Despite the corpses at Shen's feet staining the unpaved ground, she looked only for him for guidance

"On it!" She said, as she simply floated down and sat right next to Pamela, as she was being tended by Izzy. Like a dutiful sentinel she watched the events, though feeling instinctive fear when she looked, bravery caused her to stand her ground. She growled as she took a defensive stance -- like a cornered cat.

As Izzy healed Pamela, she was looking to be in better and better shape. While she wanted to speak, she obediently followed the doctor's request -- opening her mouth so that the tincture could be administered. She tried to hastily gather breath not too soon after.

"Not dead." She answered Mikhail -- barely able to croak out a few words. "Not yet..." She continued, breathing and starting to regain more of her words, watching as the fight continued to unfold. "I'm sorry you guys. This is all my fault." Slowly but assuredly, Pam began to sit up. [Pamela is no longer incapacitated and will join the fight next turn.] Groggily, she began to reach for her armor. And soon, she found herself able to equip it in one fell swoop.

Her remorse only deepened as she looked towards Raia.

Shen Lu watched Raia begin to change and morph before her very eyes -- her eyes widening in momentary shock before her brow raising in intrigue. Her roped weapon spun about her person. Its blades could be heard constantly cutting through the air as they twirled.

What you Will See (Heavenly Garden)

Shen Lu

All the while, Raia grew and grew. The onlookers began to shrink back as her form seemed to expand and take on almost more monstrous features. Her body cast a shadow over Shen's form. Her reach began larger. The pirates near-by who were had taken to spectating what seemed to be just another fight outside of the Savory Spittoon started to shrink back. The more this seemed like less of a bar fight and more of a blood feud between powerful pirate crew and adventurer -- the less people wanted to be near by.

The street began to clear. People retreated into buildings and alleyways. All the while, Shen stood in the middle of the unpaved road with corpses by her feet and increasingly being surrounded by unsavory individuals.

"A criminal such as yourself might make for a decent slave." She said, her tone dripping with venom. "The guild could use more sentinel beasts. Particularly one of your senses." In truth, Raia had been the one to detect Shen in the first place. It was perhaps the closest one might have seen to her giving praise sofar, even if backhanded.

Surrounded by far more menacing pirates, the collective crew and a giant sea creature one might think Shen afraid. Many others had taken cover as though the street had turned into a warzone. However, amidst a sea of blood, Shen stood at the center as an eerily serene figure. The constant swish of his flying guillotine spinning idly through the air serving as an audible omen of what was to come.

Yet some cacklng, colorful newcomer began babbling. Her weapon however, began to spin faster and faster. The orientation began to change as the air distorted.

As if recognizing this move from her nightmares, Pamela grabbed Stella. "Stella let's move." She said, running urgently with her.

"Wha-" Was about the lasting thing Stella uttered before being yanked hastily and protectively by Pam.

Action 1: Steel Typhoon - Deflect ????, AOE D, ???? ???? - ?????? - C-Grade Attack - 3 Post Cooldown

The Flying Guillotine tore through the area as she twirled it and began to simply destroy everything around her.

WSHWSHWWSHWSH

The counterattack violently began to destroy ambient objects as it aimed for the crew. Pieces of buildings came apart as rock and shanty materials were sliced through like butter. Wooden barrels in the area came apart so easily that it took a moment for them to fall. The spinning sawblade of the guillotine seemed to to destroy walls and maim the surrounding area in dangerous scars. And she would maneuver this

BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

The newcomer Yz came onto the fray guns blazing, unleashing a torrent of minigun fire onto Shen's person. A glare appeared on the Deerkin's expression as she seemed to watch dozens of bullets approached mid flight like a laser beam of lead. Bits of the bullets flew away mid-flight before her storm, some swerving off path. Some flew harmlessly by the side. A head lean amidst her attack caused more. It seemed clear that Yz wasn't quite as accurate as she could be. [-1 BE Penalty no aim/steady hands] Yet for every bullet which flew by Shen, more were taking it's place. Blood began to stain Shen's robes as some of the barrage hit. And when it did hit, it appeared to be painful. Her teeth bared as some of her blood joined that of the those killed already. [Blight]

Amidst the storm of steel -- Raia had barreled through with claws of her own. Still in shock from actually having accumulated actual damage -- she was particularly caught off guard as Raia's enourmous claws found their way.

SLASH

"Tch!" She grit her teeth as a giant claw mark appeared on her robe. "Poison..." She recognized it instinctively, feel as it coursed through her veins. Adrenaline surged through her. But she began to feel it weakening her. A second claw came towards her only for Shen to continue her deadly dance. With an audible CLANG that echoed through the town, Raia's enormous hand was knocked off course. The deadly dance had yet to stop. [Weaken, Continuing Incurable]

Someone was approaching, weaving through. Shen's ears twitched at first in Izzy's direction and soon her eyes followed. As Izzy sought to stab a needle into a pressure point, she shifted slightly. The needle sunk into her flesh yet didn't paralyze her as she'd hoped. Perhaps this technique would be useful for other targets. [Shen is too high grade for this level of incapacitate] "A nerve strike? On me?" She commented as she shoved Izzy away with her foot.

Dancing along the dirt -- Mikhail managed to conjure up a bolt in the time that he was. Several bolts of energy The bolts one by one, began slam into her weapon, throwing it off course. Barely able to get away, Pamela threw a kick in the air, as the Guillotine came from her. With the others covering her and weakening Shen's attacks, she was able to get away -- thankful for him covering her escape.

All the while, the next set of attacks came from Zeke's bumrushing men. The Crooked Blades raised their cutlasses and began to strike at Shen's person.

Action 2: Nimble Enagement - AOE F, Deflect ????, ????, ???? - ?????, Agile, Fast , Special Movement: Wall Crawling, Special Movement: Balance - ???????????? - F-Grade Skill - 0 Post Cooldown

CLANGCLANGCLANG

The storm shrank. And holding the flying guillotine in her hand, Shen's body became like unto a mirage, as she threw several strikes at the surrounding blades men. Amidst the sea of attacks from Zeke's minions. Feeling herself in a bad position, Shen knocks one blade straight into the dirt. Stepping on it with her foot -- she propels herself into the air, launching over Zeke's men.

Flipping and spiraling through the air like a floating Lily -- Shen lands gracefully next to a tree before running up it effortlessly. Once twenty feet in the air...she settles on the top of said palm tree.

Action 3: Shen strikes with a swipe of her hand.

There was a puff of smoke from a barrel that she saw. As her eyes snagged on a bullet. Her hand moves like a whip -- becoming a blur a moment. (Zeke's Precision was lowered from C ---> E to evade breaking his weapon) A dull thump is heard as the bullet is struck. And it sails past her body as it scrapes her cloak, and into her long, well kempt hair. Strands part for a brief moment. And then, one could hear the sound of the bullet traveling by.

BANG

There is a moment of quiet. And only that. From her lips, Shen drew precious breath. Her pure white robes were stained with blood. Wounds were all over her body, blood trickling from a few and others being shallower cuts. Poison running through her body and weakened her form. Yet her eyes darted about, visibly alert. She looked at Pamela -- who was stumbling to her feet clutching Stella. Then she looked off at something off in the distance, causing her to sigh....

....Before her eyes fell back at the crew. As she stood atop the tree -- her legs began to crouch, alluding to her next move.

"Not bad..." Shen says. "I guess this won't be an easy as Garder's group after all...." Shen spoke, a subtle acknowledge of the group's abilities if nothing else.

The turbulent wind generated by Shen's attack began to dissipate. Some structures around the area began to collapse. Chunks of buildings fell, after having been cut clean off. Porches collapsed. Up above, the sun was shining brightly. The sky was clear. Birds were circling ahea, obviously eager to pick at the fallen whenever the dust settled. A barrier appeared over the bar which they'd been in -- gracefully extending over the entire building and Yabani, who's knocked out body was dragged inside by the bartender and bard.

Soon a sign over the Savoury Spittoon read "closed".

Note: Bolster off. New thread, new cooldowns starting with this turn.

The flesh and exoskeleton of the giant beast that was now Raia, seemed to attempt to shrink and retract, but was forcibly restrained from within, very consciously. It was clear to any discerning eye that her new form was unstable, visibly trembling in parts even. But the maddened intent in her eyes was as strong as day: burning and all-consuming... and locked on target. Her fins bristled as she drew back, and re-braced herself from her parried second strike.

Gunfire, chatter, voices, explosions and blood, all accompanied by the sweet background ballad's rough descent into aggression. Raia's glowering eyes and ear fins darted wildly around from the overstimulation, every second of the extensive noise and destruction only rattling her senses more. With her claws clenching, digging deeper into the earth, she forced herself to tunnel-vision deeper onto Shen to maintain her sanity. Slowly registering her comment on enslavement, her visage distorted into a cruel snarl, barring silvery blue-tipped fangs.

"I'd rather die than be held captive again." Despite the resonance shift, the voice that came from the beast was still rather distinctly her own, even if much lower and more bestial, like a strangled beast gargling beneath the sea. "And I know a thousand ways to destroy this wretched body of mine." Her eyes narrowed despite her chuckling, calmly eyeing Shen's oh so peaceful perch atop that palm tree, her blue muscles silently tensing.

"Sadly," she smiled, as her tail abruptly straightened, "You will not learn a single one of them."

"Hey, by the way-" In a sudden feat of agility, the blue leviathan took off like a rocket, weaving through whatever irrelevant passersby remained and crushing any debris in her way. "How does it taste?" To those that had seen her fight before, there was a similar fluidity to her usual movements, as if the air was water: her home ground. "My body's 'greatest success', the thing those bastards were proudest of creating, now coursing through your veins." Without stopping, she slammed her body straight into the palm tree Shen was standing on, using it to halt her momentum as she tore her opponent down from her pretty perch.

"No break time for you, deer princess."

“Woah!” Mikhail would put a hand up, covering his guitar from the debris. The destruction grew along with the amount of casualties, the shabby town Mikhail came to know over the past couple of weeks now damaged beyond recognition. Just who the hell was this deer exactly? Never mind that thought, she was here and a problem.

The elf smiled, hearing that Pam was able bodied was pleasing to hear. However the look on his face would dissipate, replaced by one of indifference.

“We’re in this together now, whatever the world sends our way we’ll face it together.”

Mikhail replied in a stern tone, he was annoyed a bit. Not by the fact that Shen was an issue, but more so that Pam decided to apologize now at all the times for her baggage. Everyone had their shit, does she not see the giant sea monster in front of her? Surely that would garner some baggage for sure.

There wasn’t much point in an apologizing now, it was war time. They had a rampaging sea monster on their side along with a murderous deer who was coming at them. They needed to be on the same page to survive, pushing out irrelevant thoughts and fighting as one.

“Keep it up Raia! I got your back with some invigorating tunes!” he heard her, specifically her declaration. A similar experience that the two share of a fate worse than death. Like before, they all had their baggage.

“Like hell! They can’t have ya!” And like he told Pamela before, they’re in this together now. The elf grinned madly in the face of death, he didn’t plan on going back either. Let that bitch death take him before he’s put in chains again.

“She’s losing steam! Keep applying pressure!” Their fire power was lethal and it only seemed to be increasing the longer the battle went on. Now wasn’t the time to let up but double-no, triple down on their efforts. He just needed a little bit more time to turn the fight on its head. Damn it he thought to himself. At his current rate he wouldn’t be able to support this crew as well as he’d like to. He’d have to grow, transform himself before it was his time.

Yz, burdened with the unfortunate dilemma of having a writer on a time-crunch due to poor decision making skills... and being coerced into a hellscape dimension known as the League of Legends, knew they were trapped with limited time to act or respond. Hyperventilating and flicking their gaze around as she looked amongst what was happening, the nonsensical evildoer was swinging around their big Terraria Reference yoyo and damaging all the buildings. That was pretty cringe to be honest.

"Man usually when you shoot someone with a bullet, they just fall over and stop being alive. The mere fact you have survived one bullet, is truly impossible. It baffles me. What a ridiculous concept. Quite unrealistic for my tastes, to be honest. Could you, you know, like... just, go 'bleeeegh' and fall over and stop moving for about an hour? Maybe two? That feels a lot more accurate" they rambled, though their capability to hear people managed to pick up on Mikhail offering to double their 3 dollars pay. Now if anything was truly unrealistic, there it was right there. Quicky adverting to stare at the bard, they cocked their head.

"You mean to tell me... that you... can DOUBLE three dollars??" they asked, their pitch raising as they acknowledged it as the most crazy thing that they had ever heard.
"DO YOU UNDERSTAND, WHAT I COULD BUY, WITH TWO THREE DOLLARS?" Yz proclaimed, wondering what sort of absolute madman this mysterious musical combatant had to be in order to offer them such a grand offer.

"I COULD... I COULD... MAYBE BUY LIKE... TWO SMALL SANDWICHES!! THAT'S FOUR MORE THAN ONE SANDWICH!!! AND THOSE SANDWICHES, WILL BE, CHOCOLATE CHIP AND CANDYFLOSS FILLED!!" Yz loudly screamed and cheered despite the circumstances likely asking for some... more serious response. They stared to Mikhail, patting their chest and giving a small salute.

"Mr. Music Man, you have my word that I will not rest, I will not sleep, I will not breathe, until I have managed to place another bullet in them... starting... one minute ago. Okay, I did it. I would like my two three dollars, but I am here to work overtime~" Yz agreed in offer, making up their own consensus for the job being finished as they continued firing away anyway.

Learning from her past actions of missing all of her shots, Yz had the beneficial convenience of reading what the point of the [Steady Hands] skill did... you know, in their mind, as one does, and decided that AIMING before PULLING THE TRIGGER of a HIGH RECOIL WEAPON was a potentially good idea. So, that was the new plan... even if they couldn't exactly use their stronger attacks... even if they all just consisted of... firing the same gun, the exact same way, because things worked like that.

"GUN MOEV, BANG BANG BANG, BANG BANG BANG, HAHAHA, TEEHEE, HEEHEE, BANGBANGBANG~" Yz cheerfully yelled, giggling like a psychopath as they did so.

Actions
1. COOL NEW REVOLUTIONARY TECHNOLOGY!!!! Yz AIMS before firing.
2. Yz double checks that they are doing this cool new 'aiming' technology thing correctly, just to be sure.

.·:·.* Isabella Sangrea *.·:·.

╭── ⋅ ⋆⋅ ── ஓ๑✩๑ஓ ── ⋅ ⋆ ⋅ ──╮

Izzy barely had time to register the moment her needle struck home before a sharp boot connected with her torso. The force sent her stumbling backward, her feet skidding through the dust and dirt as she lost her balance. “Oh, bollocks—” was all she managed before gravity took over, and she landed flat on her arse with an undignified thud.

For a moment, she blinked up at the sky, dazed. That was... not the plan.

And then—

BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

Gunfire ripped through the air. Izzy’s body reacted before her brain did, legs kicking as she scrambled backward on instinct, scuttling like a crab across the dirt. “Oi! oi! Ye Fochn' loons—!” she shouted, voice barely carrying over the roaring minigun. Shen was fast, faster than Izzy had anticipated, and her little trick with the pressure point had barely done a damn thing. It was time for a tactical retreat.

Boots kicking up dust, she half-rolled, half-scrambled back toward Pam and Stella, throwing herself down beside them just as another round of destruction whistled through the air. She panted, heart pounding in her throat, and reached instinctively for Pam, checking her over with quick, experienced hands.

“Easy, love, don’t move too quick,” she murmured, glancing at the rabbitkin’s chest, watching the rise and fall of her breathing. Was she still wheezing? Any more blood in her mouth? The tincture should’ve slowed the worst of the internal bleeding, but exertion could rip things right open again. Her fingers hovered near Pam’s pulse, checking for steadiness, for anything out of the ordinary.

That’s when she risked a glance back at the battlefield—and her jaw nearly hit the bloody floor.

“Wha'th'foch es happening?!” she muttered, staring at Raia. Or rather—what used to be Raia. A towering, monstrous thing now stood in her place, all fins and fangs, her body shifting like the tides. The sheer size of her made Izzy’s stomach twist.

Her gaze flicked toward Mikhail, eyes narrowing. “Oi, Bard!” she barked, voice cutting through the chaos. “Think y’ kin crank ahp that playin’ ov’ yers? That big lass ain't exactly hard to hit now, an’ ah’d rather she not get turned into Fish stew while she’s doin’ all tha’ flailin’!”

With that, she turned her focus back to Pam, exhaling slowly to steady herself. When she spotted Stella, clutched tight in Pam’s arms, the little one held close against her chest, Izzy exhaled slowly, letting some of the tension ease from her shoulders.

“Good lass,” she murmured to Stella, voice dipping into something softer. “Once all this fuss es over, Papa’s takin’ ahs fer somethin’ sweet. Y’hear that, love? Best we hurry up and drop this doe, aye?”

She turned her head slightly, grinning through the dirt and adrenaline as she called out toward Zeke.

“Oi, Cap’n! Y’hear that? Papa’s buyin’ ahs somethin’ sweet after we mount this doe’s head on the new hull we're gettin'!”

Actions:
1.Avoid being Shot
2. Crawl back to Pam and Stella.

Zeke “Mors” Valdain

"WHAT NOW?!" Zeke shouted over the gunfire as he looked over to see the clown with a chaingun taking his hat off and putting a hand through his hair. A deep sigh escaped his lips, deciding he would appraise her in a moment, before turning to look at the retreating Shen. "It won't be easy as nothin' lass, seein' as this rabbit 'ere's a Crooked Bladesman now, she's bout as far out of your reach as the stars themselves!" He shouted, remaining by Pamela and Izzy's side. He turned to them after a moment, looking at the two.

"Well, we'll be sure to grab a good treat then for ye Stella, you've been very good." He said, leaning down and petting the small dragons head, before clicking the hammer of his flintlock, turning around to take aim at Shen once more. "Ms. Sangrea, how is our shameless friend here feeling? Hopefully 'er skirt is still in the proper place." He said, teasing while also genuinely inquiring about how Pamela was feeling, since humor was the best medicine for things like this in his experience with his last crew, and he was sure she'd have something to say about him teasing her about the skirt incident. He held his action, simply aiming and watching Shen on her tree branch perch.

"I'm fine." Pamela says, dropping Stella to the ground.

"You patched me up pretty well. Bitch knocked the wind out of me." She'd said, her hands tracing over her solar plexus. Izzy might be able to piece together that Pamela had been hit by a nerve strike. A very hard one considering how far she flew.

Pamela seemed a bit struck by the humor amid the situation. Yet, she felt herself blush just a little bit at Zeke's comment. "Hrrrgh, Listen here you cheeky FUCKER. You're gonna be REAL glad how mobile I am in this skirt in this fucking fight. Just you watch." For now, she did as the Izzy said, remaining close by her side.

Stella cooed as she was pet by Zeke, eyes still locked on the deerkin lodged in the tree like she was some type of demon. Yet Stella felt less tense at his touch.

Shen Lu

With Rage

There was little time for rest. As it seemed, her enemies had the initiative. Poison was flowing through Shen Lu veins -- yet she remained alert and spoke, seeking to buy herself.

"You're poison tastes inconvenient." She answers. "I didn't expect such a thing from one of your bulk." Shen said, her demeanor still retaining it's composure despite the wounds she had received. But her pride wounded in the fact that she'd have to take this group seriously for various reasons.

"You'll need to make that happen yourself." Was Shen's only reply to Yz's various ramblings.

However, Shen eyes became locked on Yz. The minigun came to spin and it seemed.

Raia rushed like a battering ram, clearing out all obstacles in her path. The full force of her strike broke the entire tree in half as though it were a twig. Her large body made it so that her strikes were within reach of Shen. And those menacing claws threatened to wrap around nearly her entire body with being trapped [Hindrance: Grapple]. HOWEVER....

Hearing the whirring of the minigun, shots fired out. And due to these attacks -- She could stall no more.

Action 1: [Nimble Evasion] - Fast E, Jumping E, Acrobatics ???, ???? ??? - ?????? - E Grade Skill - 1 Post cooldown

Action 2 and 3: Movement Dodge - Shen spins through the air as she continues to move through the air. (+2)

Unable to rely on her strength and not wishing to contest the entire group at once, Shen jumps off the falling tree while it's still midair -- evading Raia's grasp.

BRRRRRRRRRRRR

Launching herself into the air -- Shen A veritable barrage was launched towards Shen's person. But this time, she was able to focus. Shen seemed to almost float through the air as she sporadically spun and changed direction constantly. The newfound aiming technique Yz had learned made the well aimed shots poised to hit her. What was worse was just how well placed [Accurate] her shots were. Yet due to Shen's mobility, Yz and Raia were the only people shen had to worry about. And Yz seemed to take her time aiming....

WOOSH

Spinning and floating gracefully through the air like a floating Lily, the barrage cut through the air passed the woman. A rain of spent shells from the Fae's XM214 Microgun would deposite itself at Yz's feet.

Shen barely made any noise as she hit the ground. Just a moment ago, she had nearly flatten everything within 50 feet of her save for the crew? Now, she hit the ground and barely kicked up any dust. She was about 20 feet away from the group. Zeke and Yz were still aiming at her and could fire at will at any moment.

"Mount my head upon your ship. I'm flattered really." She finally replied to Izzy, voice as sarcastic as it was unabashedly condescending. "I'd take yours and throw it in the trash. Such was the fate of Ms. Pamela's friends. And have done with many monsters and bandits before them." From a closed fist, Shen would reveal she had caught one of Yz's bullets. And then she would drop it on the ground.

Escalation

"I'll be keepin' a weathered eye out, gals like that don't work alone, so keep yer head on a swivel for anyone here to finish the job."

Zeke's prediction would begin to prove itself correct as another group soon had made their way onto the scene.

There were four. Ironically, one was able to glean from their equipment their type. They were all dressed in a way Zeke would recognize, each one being from the West Empire. However, upon looking at the group, one wouldn't be too off in saying the looked like a well balanced party fit for adventuring.

One appeared to be a Wolf Beastman with a sword. Specifically, a Jin. He could be seen as a Martially based Fighter.
Another appeared to be a Snake Beastman with prayer beads, who seemed to be a Healer.
Another was a monkey beastman with a long staff that like something of a Mage.
Another appeared to be a muscular bow tiger beastwoman with dark clothes, who appeared to be an Archer.

"Lady Shen. We heard the noise!" A voice came from behind where Shen had landed in common tongue. She didn't tear her eyes away from the group. But despite the fact that back up had arrived, one could very easily see Shen's face. Her face became even angrier than normal.

She concealed her words in Bestial and began to speak a language most did not understand.

"<Speaking in Bestial>" Shen's voice took on a different inflection, sounding like a series of growls and rumbles with a slightly deer-like inflection. Pamela seemed to translate words which otherwise would have been hidden from the group.

Pamela's Translation: "You shouldn't have come here."

<Speaking in Bestial> One replied. The Healer immediately tries to heal Shen but cannot due to the wound's difficult-to-heal [Incurable] nature. Shen can only sigh as her body continues to fend of her poison for a time.

Pamela's Translation: "We heard the noise. And you're hurt. Which one is their healer?" Shen's eyes briefly move from Yz to Izzy.

Taking a moment to comment.

"These don't look like the guys who killed my crew. There were six of them. Shen was there...but not the rest of these four...."

The Mage seemed to be the first to attack. As he spoke words, they seemed to appear midair in front of him, written in fire.

火球！

As the Mage took a motion with two fingers in front of him and muttered. A fireball appeared in front of him. And grew larger and larger. With his twirling staff -- he smacked the fireball and sent it the Magewards an arc at Zeke's minion. Threatening to go off like bomb and engulf the minions in flames. [E-Grade Attack] [Targets: Zeke's minions. Mikhail. Yz.]

The presence of the Fireball didn't seem to deter two more from moving. The Fighter and Archer moved as one, with the Archer trailing behind the fighter a short distance.

The Archer took two targets. One was another shot directed at Zeke's minions. The other was an attack towards Zeke's minions, consisting of an arrow with a fuse set to detonate with yet another area of effect... [E-Grade Attack] Spinning quickly another was an arrow notched and aimed precisely at Izzy. [E-Grade Basic Attack] At the same time -- the fighter strikes at Izzy with his Jian. [E-Grade Attack] Yet as he launches his attack -- Pamela is having none of it.

"You don't you don't." Pamela moves near Izzy, in particular in her defense, and, with a raised leg, sends a fierce side kick into the fighter. Her eyes snap to the arrow as she attacks it, seeking to kick it out of the sky.

The healer remains behind Shen -- who is still far away from the group. He seems only to pray.

Shen mutters something in beastial. And only Pamela seems to catch these words.

<"Be careful">

Shen dodges attacks thrown at her. She lands 20 feet from the crew after dodging using movement.

A new party appears with a colorful. Pamela sheds key yet scant information Shen's current allies.

The group attacks various members of the crew.

Bark and leaves rained down from above as Raia skidded across the earth, digging her claws into the ground to pivot her missed momentum. Snarling at yet another missed attack, her eyes darted back to that antlered figure with ever-fluttering robes without pause, annoyed by both Shen's constant running, and her own lack of accuracy, although, confusion was still somewhat clouding her senses.

Voices, voices, so many voices. Cheering, support, maniacal laughter, shouting, yelling. She shook her head violently, rattling her fins and trying to get a grasp on her overly attuned hearing and smell senses.

Still, Shen's flat response to her words had somehow pissed her off more than if she had bit back, her bloodlust curdling and her heart beating loudly in her ears. But if there was one thing she managed to overhear that broke the straw on the camel's back, it was this:

Maverick Six said:
"Mount my head upon your ship. I'm flattered really." She finally replied to Izzy, voice as sarcastic as it was unabashedly condescending. "I'd take yours and throw it in the trash."

A disgustingly gruesome image flashed in Raia's mind. A decapitated head abandoned on a pile of debris, with lovely curly brown hair, lifeless skin and dead eyes.

And Raia lost it. As brief as their companionship was, she had lost too many to lose someone again.

Roaring almost mournfully in tone, rationale and coherent speech left her giant body, her muscles flexing like a furious predator. She only saw red. Saw Shen. Regardless of who else ran onto the scene.

If before, she tried to stick to paths and avoid damaging herself, now she didn't care, barrelling forth and crushing everything beneath her path. Her right claws were raised high, their venom-tipped ends glinting dangerously in the sun as she struck at Shen, aiming to stab her through the torso and impale her bloodily to the ground.

Yz honestly spouted so much nonsense they they couldn't remember for the life of them whatever it was that Shen actually responded to them about. So, they made the executive decision to completely ignore it as they raised their weapon ready to continue firing like the mindless psychopath they were. Though the jester hesitated for a moment, they watched as four others came onto the scene that sounded like they were good friends with this Lady Shen character. Even though the entire counter felt like it was partly inspired by a movie's sequel about a panda who did kung fu, Yz focused on the important matter at hand.

"Oh noes! More peoples! What will me and my DILLON AERO M134D MINIGUN, THANK YOU VERY MUCH, do in this situation?" Yz sighed and questioned to themselves, angrily staring off at nothing as they felt it completely necessary to clarify the specific make of their weapon like they had been so rudely named incorrectly by an external force.
"Sigh, some people just don't read the fine print correctly. Anyway, bullet bullet gun move, go go love beamu~!" Yz shook their head, ignoring the small annoyance and was ready to start firing away again before yet another thing came up. Groaning and lowering her weapon, Yz quietly listened for a while. They hadn't even acknowledged all the other people, or really much of anything about the big fish, or instrument guy, or guy with small dragon, or woman guy, or the others, but dramatically gasped in a very exasperated fashion once Shen started speaking in beastial to keep her words secret.

"HOLY HECKERS, SHE'S SPEAKING IN FRICKING DEER, WHAT ARE WE SUPPOSED TO DO ABOUT THAT??" Yz loudly claimed, putting their hands on their head and dropping their minigun for the moment to just visually demonstrate their surprise. Then shortly after, the mage in the other group would start casting a spell. Noticing the symbols, they'd slap their hands on their head loudly to once again demonstrate their exaggerated shock.

"NOW THEY'RE CASTING IN CHINESE SUBTITLES, WON'T SOMEONE THINK OF THE CHILDREN! YOU EXPECT EVERY CHILD TO BE ABLE TO READ CHINESE? IS THAT CHINESE, HONESTLY I DON'T KNOW- honestly you aren't escaping the Kung Fu Panda allegations with this one. Big fireball, animal villain called Shen, like buddy I can see the vision. Even a lot of your animal choices are the same. Real creative on that one, but I admire the movie choice, great movie. Anyway, about my answer, gun gun love-beamu blast~!" Yz would cheerfully giggle to themselves as they continued speaking absolute nonsense to themselves to what looked like imaginary people, the clown clearly not taking anything in the slightest amount serious as not a single word they said would make any sense in general. But for the moment, they turned to the fireball to meet firepower with a different kind of firepower. Destroying the attack would let the others to continue what other skedaddlin' they were up to, and would mean they wouldn't have to take a single step from their nice, beautiful, prettyful location where they could stand still and pull the giant gun's trigger as they pleased.

Izzy had just reached for another vial in her pouch when movement in her peripheral made her head snap up. The glint of a blade, the shifting stance of an attacker—shit.

She barely had time to react before a booted foot came swinging in from the side.

Pam’s dropkick sent the fighter reeling back, his balance shattering as he stumbled to regain his footing. Izzy, still half-crouched, narrowed her eyes.

“Oh, aye, ya’ don’t get off tha' easy, ye foch.”

Without hesitation, she lashed out with her own foot, burying a solid kick into his gut. It wasn’t elegant, but it was damn satisfying. She gave another harsh kick to his gut with a snarl then wasted no time. She dropped back to her knees, snatching up the small vial she’d originally gone for. “Alright, love, one more fer good measure,” she murmured to Pam, already pulling the cork free with her teeth. She spat the stopper to the side, slipping an arm around Pam’s shoulders to tilt her slightly. “I know ye say yer fine, but humor me, aye?”

She pressed the vial to Pam’s lips, coaxing her into taking another sip of the tincture. The mix should further slow any lingering internal bleeding and give Pam a better shot at holding her own. Izzy wasn’t about to let her keel over from pushing too hard.

Her gaze flicked up toward the battlefield, barely dodging a stray chunk of debris from all the gunfire, magic, and outright destruction raining down around them. Her heart hammered in her chest, her head still spinning from keeping track of too many threats at once.

But then her eyes locked onto Raia.

The massive, raging sea serpent barreling through the battlefield, her claws glinting dangerously in the sun.

Izzy swallowed. Raia had been unpredictable before, but now? That wasn’t just a transformation—that was bloodlust.

“We need t' get t' Raia.” Izzy’s voice was urgent, low but firm as she met Pam’s gaze. “Ah dunnae care how big she’s gotten, ef she’s burnin’ through herself too fast, she’s goin'tae collapse.”

Izzy was the damn medic. It was her job to make sure they all came outta this in one piece.

She shoved her pouch back into place, already shifting her weight, glancing between the chaos and Pam. “Can ye’ move, or do I need to carry yer arse?” she teased, but there was a genuine sharpness beneath the humor. They needed to move—now.

Actions:

“Looks like I got a fanatic on my hands” Mikhail quipped back at Izzy. Capturing the hearts of people wasn’t an easy feat, it required timing, precision, and some magic. “I’ll oblige soon enough Doc.”

The clown next to him only seemed to add onto the chaos with the incessant screaming, perhaps he may had attached himself monetarily to the wrong person? Ah, why was he thinking about this at the current situation?

Bard Song

“Ah. To hell with it all.” he strummed, his crystal blue eyes peering over the top of his shades as he lowered his gaze. The other instruments come into earshot, providing a stage for the elf’s guitar to shine. Failure was not an option. His mark had to be made in this moment. He’d briefly check on the crew once more making sure that they were all in tact. “Good, now that everyone is awake for my song this time.” He smirked, peering at Pam this time.

From the distance he could see fire ball forming, and YZ wasted no time letting her mini-gun ramp up before sending shots flying the mages way. She might be insane but she wasn’t a coward.

He could respect that.

“An extra dollar for you my friend.” He’d snap his finger at Yz. He’d return his attention to playing orbs of magic began to gather around him. As he focused more on his playing, the magic would swell more and more. He’d gather enough energy in the shot until the last moment, releasing the blast once the fireball was within range.

Shen Lu and West Empire Adventurers

Attack by Storm

BOOM

One explosive had made it through. The arrow sent by the archer let loose both a fifteen feet in radius in it's center. And soon the minions found themselves knocked out and on the ground. [Zeke's minions are all downed with F-Grade Concussions....]

All the while, a fireball threatens to overtake the group. However, a barrage of Yz's seemingly endless array of bullets pelts the fireball, some of them piercing through the fireball and moving to hit the mage. (Blight) Blood appeared where bullets pelted him and his spell had begun to fall apart. All the while Mikhail's Guitar strums. He sends forth both aid and attack with a series of passionate performed guitar riffs that echo all through the street amidst the carnage.

FWOOOOSH

Another explosion went off almost as if in musical sync of the guitar rift. The flames expanded outward yet the pair found the flames did naught but highlight their show. Raia, Izzy, Pamela and Zeke would feel themselves empowered by Mikhail's's almost heroic song. The fire didn't so much as graze either of them as it harmlessly disappated and blew hot winds towards the both of them, causing Milkhail's long and white hair to blow back elegantly. The attack had successfully been repelled. More than that....

The mage's vision swam as the orb came to finish what the barrage of gunfire. And the magic bolt struck him. Tossed off his feet -- he landed on his back, bleeding out onto the ground as he stared up into the sky. (The mage is on death's door....) The deerkin's eyes flick over to her fallen ally right next to her, yet she finds herself able.

Shen's eyes narrowed as she stared at Raia. The Healer's eyes grew wide as he felt the tremors of Raia's approach. He began to give ground as the monstrous form approached closer and closer.

<Speaking in beastial> Shen says a few words, and one could pick up a degree of resoluteness in her tone. The serpent-healer stops moving. Clasps his hand together as if preparing an attack. All the while, a familiar and yet ominous noise begins to fill the area.

Swish swish....

The flying guillotine began to spin in Shen's hand once more -- speeding picking up with each passing moment. The serpent beastmen from behind Shen presses his hands together. And between his palms, bodily energies begin to manifest in between his palms. His fearful expression.

Shen Lu and the healer attacked together.

The Serpent sent forth a ball of "pure energy" from a firm stance. A ball of blue energy flew from his palm and as it struck Raia, the energy would feel more like a punch then anything with heat. The [E-Grade] attack barely seemed to do much to Raia's hulking mass yet it set up a far more powerful Attack which came after..

Action 1: Iron Maiden - Tangle F, Range ???? ??? - ?????? - F Grade Skill - 0 Post cooldown

As Shen twirled the flying guillotine over head, she sent it forth towards Raia like a lasso. The long -- chained weapon would wrap around Raia's form. She would feel the feel the pains painlessly begin to surround her at first. However, the more the chains began to twirl around her body -- the tighter it became. It started around her body, wound through her legs and then soon her neck.

Shen raised her foot above the chain and stomped down.

The Flying Guillotine became taut. And the chain tightened around Raia. The blades of the buzzsaw-like end struck her armor in passing before it lodged itself in the ground. A giant gash forming on her body yet not piercing her thick hide to deal damage. [Raia -1 Heavy Armor. Raia is Tangled]. Those deadly claws stopped just shy of Shen's unblinking eyes. The healer sighed out of relief.

<Speaking in beastial> Shen spoke urgently in beastial as she glared at Raia. The healer looked to the downed mage and ran over to heal him.

As for the ship's doctor, things seemed to be going well for Izzy. Pamela's side kick smashed into the fighter in tandem with Izzy's own kicksl. Instead of being knocked down, he lands on his feet and stabs his sword in the ground to halt his momentum. The archer's arrow headed right for Izzy was knocked aside by Pamela's kick with apparent ease by a bolstered kick.

-------

More in Beastial were exchanged. And hearing what the two said, the Archer said something -- deliberately hiding the pair's location.

"Mikhail, Clown, Zeke. Heads up." Hearing their words, Pamela gave them a warning. The fight moved too fast for a precise translation.

Once they saw that the pair were headed to Shen, however, the Fighter and the Archer set their sights on someone else. An arrow was notched and aimed at the Captain Mors and probably let off. [E-Grade Basic Attack]. The Archer then turned and aimed right at Yz. However, both might be keen on recognizing the smoke bomb arrowhead being loaded on them shot at them. [E-Grade AOE targetting both Mikhail and Yz].

Sniff sniff.

The Beastman Fighter rushed forward with Jian in hand. Closing his eyes, he ceased to use them as smoke was inclined to fill the area if the arrow went off without a hitch. With sword in hand, he sought to strike at Yz, his sword bending in an unorthodox way as it came towards her from a strange angle. Strangely enough, it seemed more aimed towards her hand. [E-Grade Attack]

The Archer pulled another arrow from her quiver. The groans of Zeke's minions were in the air, though they didn't seem dead yet -- they were close. Raia was unfortunately within melee range and thus, blocking shots to Shen. Particularly given others being near Shen. Ranged attacks against her and the healer were in danger of striking allies.

Pamela

"Doc I'm fi-"

The tincture was inserted into her mouth. And as quickly as it was put it, she drank it and spit it out. Pamela's ears were turned towards Raia ever since having heard that mournful cry of hers. And her eyes widen upon seeing Raia in such a state.

Pamela had become bolstered. Yet something seemed to change within her. While Izzy's air was more light hearted -- the Bunny kin could feel her blood boiling. Veins began to appear on her head. Her fists began to clench.

"Keep up then, doc."

In a gust of wind it seemed almost as though Pamela had...disappeared from Izzy's side running much faster ahead. A boot print left on the ground alluded to her path. But by the time most would see where she was -- Pam had already appeared behind Shen. [Sucker Roundhouse]

Action 2 and 3: Strike the Invisible - Sixth Sense (???), Supersense ??? Incapacitate - ????, Fighting Style: ???? ???? - D Grade Skill - 0 Post cooldown

A distortion appeared in the air. Faster than most eyes could see, Pamela span through the air like a hurricane -- the wind appearing as round house kick struck at both the healer and Shen Lu. [Roundhouse] Shen reacted by striking Pamela with a closed fist.

It was only after she'd attack, that she would speak.

"Raia! I'm here."

Pamela Actions: 3/3

1 and 2. Sucker's Roundhouse - Fighting Style: Rabbit's Revenge D, Area F, Accurate F, Speedburst [x5], Incapacitate F, Undetected: Sight F, Agile Action, Blight [Thunder] F - Pamela rushes forward up to 140 feet, her footwork and speed rendering her invisible to the eyes of most. This is followed by a spinning kick with a five foot radius.

Despite all the absolute chaos and carnage going on, there was one clear thing that Yz could find themselves paying attention to way above all else. Hearing the bard pay her worthwhile with the offer of a whole 'nother dollar, the jester slowed their aggression as they looked to the bard.
"Woah, woah, woah... woah..... woah.... woah there.... woah" she stated slowly, pausing over the rather ridiculous offer that had just been made. Was this man truly out of his mind, what was he thinking to offer such a deal? Was he... lying? There was no way in any possibility some madman would offer four whole dollars to commit armed murder against a ton of people theirself didn't even know, now he was just being silly.
"3 dollars is an amazing deal and all, but it was in the realm of believable. 4 dollars? You pullin' my panties or something? Because let the record be shown, I am not wearing any, if you think your little temptations of an entire extra dollar'd make me slide off some damp ones then pal it ain't happening. But that's solely because I'm not wearing any, you'd best be sure that I would if I was in fact wearing them. And also let the record be shown, that I look damn good in those panties" Yz would answer back, gesturing a finger gun to the bard that had them entirely sold on their pay for the task at hand. Though before reaching their free hand back to their weapon's handle, they'd quickly point back.

"I'm not wearing boxers or anything either, you're not getting any legwear from me, don't get your hopes up, this outfit's one of a kind and all mine-" the jester corrected, making sure they didn't expect any sort of offer in return for their dollars in pay. The gunning-down-people was the thing they were getting out of the exchange.

Either way, the little clown went back to giggling and laughing over the bleeding and carnage their hailfire of lead caused amongst their targets, witnessing the peasantry fireball broken up as their bullets tore apart the mage that casted it. What sweet irony... because of the iron- you know like the lead- the metal bullets- the pointy projectile things- it's like a joke- you know they died to the iron- whatever it was funnier in Yz's head shut up they don't have to impress you.

Though, conflict worsened as people thought, and as more discussion was hidden amongst the tongue of Beastial, even though the rabbit woman had given a word of warning to others, something was bugging Yz. Wouldn't it be helpful if they could understand Beastial too so they knew what was going on, or could make funny one-liners against their opponents to really aggravate them? And that's when they came to the realisation four posts deep that YES YZ KNEW BEASTIAL WOULDN'T THAT HAVE BEEN A USEFUL SKILL TO REMEMBER EARLIER YOU SILLY LITTLE CLOWN YOU, they mentally told themselves as they realised it. See? It was right there on their Character Sheet. See it? See it? You see it yet? Let Yz put some arrows on it, maybe it'll become clearer to you.

There? See it? See it? Yz knew they saw it, it was right there, you see it too now right? It's clear enough for you? No, oh maybe it wasn't clear enough, here Yz will make it a bit more obvious you know. See take a close inspection of this next image surely you'll see where they have the ability to speak Beastial and they had paid 7 points for it at Character Creation.

See? Right there, Yz noticed it just now. Wouldn't that have been so convenient to know earlier? Anyway, now that Yz was aware of the fact they entirely understood the Beastial language but had just randomly forgot 'for the lols' or something, they made sure to keep their ears out for any cool little secret Beastial dialogue because they wanted to hear it too.

"That's cool, wish I remembered that like four posts earlier. What're you gonna do, not my fault~" Yz chimed to themselves nonchalantly, laughing it off quietly as they realised Pamela had called them a clown. Despite being truth, they argued back.

"HEY, THAT'S YZ, CLOWN AND JESTER SUPREME TO YOU-" they'd yell as they lowered their head and murmured under their breath.
"And coolest person ever, absolute sigma and gigachad, winner of everything" they uttered very quietly to themselves, clearly having to state and boast their own personal titles to themselves because of course they did.
"ACTUALLY THAT'S FINE, BUT CALL ME ANYTHING I ACTUALLY DISAGREE WITH AND I WILL PULL YOU OUT OF A HAT. Actually I'd pull you out of a hat anyway, you're a pretty bunnygirl and everything, bunnies are cute but it'd be more interesting to see how to pull you out of a hat magically... or anyone for that matter, imagine what I could do with the power of being able to reach into a hat and just- like- POOF, I pull out anyone I want, from anywhere in the world. That's kinda nuts to think about. Hey bunbunbunnybunbun, you mind if I try pulling you out of a hat?" Yz would answer back to Pam, getting awfully distracted along the way. Even with the Archer choosing to target them, they had the much more pressing matter of a CRAZY PSYCHO ANIMAL PERSON WITH A SWORD RUNNING STRAIGHT AT THEM OH MY GOSH-

Yz, panicking slightly, took a quick step back in panic (and to partially dodge their approaching attacker) whilst revving up her minigun once more to blast him back to the stone age.
"OH GOSH NO, BAD PUPPY BACK SIT STAY THAT'S A BAD DOGGY-" Yz immediately panicked as they chose to jump backwards in panic, blasting their gun directly at their attacking target. As they did, they mimicked holding and talking into a walkie talkie.
"BZZT-" they acted out the static sound they would stereotypically make, obviously.
"Yz to Animal Control Headquarters, yeah we're gonna have to put down this one, don't worry I got it, over- BZZT-" they'd speak to themselves loudly, for some reason pretending to muffle themselves as they began their shooting spree.

Izzy swore loudly.

“Pam! FOCHIN’ HELL, WAIT—” But the words were useless. The rabbitkin was too fast. Izzy’s breath hitched as her feet refused to move.

Too many choices.

Zeke’s crew members lay sprawled across the dirt—unconscious, bleeding, vulnerable. She could see one of them groaning, barely conscious, the other completely still. Her hands twitched toward her pouch, years of instinct screaming at her to triage, to stabilize, to check for pulses. But then, her head snapped up to look at Raia. Still caught in Shen’s chains. Still struggling. Still trapped. And Pam was already running in. Alone.

Izzy felt her pulse hammer against her ribs, the weight of it all sinking like an anchor in her chest. She could fix the fallen crew. She could stay back, do her job, play it safe, not take the risk. She had too many options. For a second, she froze. A second too long. She clenched her jaw.

“Shite..." And then she moved. Her boots kicked off the dirt, her muscles burning as she bolted after Pam. “Y’don’t get t’do this alone, ye reckless shite!” she growled under her breath, shoving down every instinct screaming at her to turn back, to heal, to help, to save. Not this time.

She’d have to trust the others to keep the crew breathing. Raia needed her. Pam needed her.

So she ran.

Actions:
1. Run after Pam to Raia.

RavenSong · Feb 18, 2025

In spite of all the chaos going on, and the sudden bursts of music that echoed about the area, Jane refused to run for her life like the general populace. She had been playing out a skit by a one "Chaplin" that she begged a time wizard to give her, it was her absolute favorite!

Walking about with a bent cane she found in a dumpster and a hat from a passed out drunk at a park her outfit was nearly complete. "Ha! With this outfit and my loooovely assistants you bet your big nose we'll get to Broadway!" Tapping her slightly oversized shoes she did a little tap dance as she spun the cane in a finger before taking a bow with the boozy smelling hat. Wiggling her nose, walking with a waddle and seeming like a silly little gentleman as she acted out her performance. Unfortunately everyone was running for their lives or something, she was too engulfed in character to care. Finally with a bow, she snapped out of it. "Hm. What is up with this town? No one here is down to clown!"
Her minions would shake their head in unison with agreement upon Janes disappointment, albeit silently.

"Come along! We have an audience to kill ! Err.. with laughter!"
As Jane heard the sounds of roaring and things exploding and machine guns going off Jane walked down the street, with a slight skip, and every other step sounding off an annoying honk. "I really need to fix my honking, how is ANYONE going to take me seriously?" She muttered to herself.

But just as the lady clown began to dwell on the thought, she opened her arms to stop her minions walking closely behind her, hitting the brakes full stop with the heels of her yellow shoes. "WAAAAIIIITTT!!!" A few of the ladies crashed into one another, one even falling on her butt with a rubber ducky squeek.

Jane looked around for a few quick moments before zooming her colorful face upon the ground to observe a coin. "Someone's left their very hard earned money!" She said out loud, as she placed her hands over her heart. "It's been left here.. for me! Eeek!" Picking it up ecstatically she faced her minions and flashed the coin before their awestruck faces. "Behold ladies! A tip!" Oo's and ahh's resounded before another shriek from Jane. "Wait here's another!" And so it went until she found herself in the midsts of all the source of chaos that had been transpiring.

Jane had found herself in the presence of a VERY freaked out lady, coins in her hand and her every other step now ringing like a bag of change. "Hey you! Is this your-" Before she could finish, the lady sprinted towards a horned and bunny eared lady. "Hm! And I thought I looked funny." A resisted chuckle escaped her lips in red face paint before noticing all the people on the ground, seemingly injured. "Oooo that's going to leave a mark." She giggled to herself before suddenly blinking and realizing the severity of the situation, but before things could get overly serious her eyes caught sight of another funny and colorful face.

She rubbed her eyes, smearing her makeup a bit. "Whoa! That's.. that's.. a friend!" She muttered in awe, and moreso the jesters sense of humor in spite of their predicament. "Pfft! Okay, I suppose Broadway can wait for a little bit? Right?" Turning around to see her minions nodding in agreement.

"Pssst!! PSSSST!!!" PSSSSSSSSTTTT!!!!" Jane called out to Yz with an overjoyed wave. Then pointing to herself she played out her plan like a mime to climb up a tree and that she needed to keep everyone distracted. [Performance: Acting F]

After explaining she quickly muttered to herself, "Now let's see.. it seems like that antler lady is a- oh dear.. I mean oh DEER. Hm!" She thought about it quickly before finally settling on a plan for her minions "Right. You five stay here, and help.. that one out." She pointed to Yz (but doesn't know she's Yz).

Jane bit her bottom lip with a bit of anxiety as she took a fallen pirates flint lock, putting it in her front pants, another tucked in her her back pants, another in her hand and finally another in her blouse. "No, I'm not scared." She muttered to herself. "Clowns don't feel fear remember?"
Giving her minions a thumbs up they'd get into position after doing the same as Jane and taking cover behind crates on both sides of the road way.

Jane on the other hand had her sights set on the crates nearby, opening them she found a few bottles of liquor. She suddenly had an idea. Ripping some of her clothes she fashioned a pair of fuses that she tucked away in her pocket. She was ready! But after taking her first step however a flint lock would fall into and through her pants down, down, down to her shoe. Jane rolled her eyes and let the weapon fall out by kicking her leg out.

Hugging the sides of the town walls she got as close as she could before using [Curious Infiltration] to sneak past the antler woman and head up to a palm tree nearest to her, climbing it from the back side so as to decrease her chances of being seen. Once at the tippy top, Jane would quietly install the fuse into the liquor bottle and with the flintlock use the hammer to spark the fuse and dropping the bottle on the antler ladies head. "Bombs away." She whispered to herself.

Curious Infiltration - Climbing F - Acrobatics F - Undetected [vision] F - Stealth F - Navigation F - In a fit to satisfy her curiosity, Jane takes it upon herself to climb up whatever structure natural or man made to achieve a goal, spy, escape or find a quiet place. Grade F

Raia (#4064c3)

Tail E: 2/2
Natural Armour E [Heavy]: 1/2
HP: 2/3

Raia's serpentine gaze remained startlingly trained on Shen, darting with every fraction of her movement, her slitted pupils wide and unblinking. Through her bloodthirsty haze, she sneered maliciously, her flesh barely undulating on impact with whatever puny force had struck her from the front. However, if only marginally, it had slowed her advance, and it was that moment of difference that cost her everything that followed.

Even as the criss-crossing lines of metal consumed her vision, the leviathan didn't care, lunging forward without abandon. Her only goal was clear as day, to tear apart the face of that wretched deer at any cost, but it was not enough. Her chest tightened until she was breathless, her leg movements beginning to restrain each other, and her momentum was halted completely mere inches from drawing blood.

It was maddening being so close to her goal, yet denied. But she had already gone mad... so what was left was only a gnawing confusion and despair.

Though her gaze remained unmoving on the deerkin, her body stopped moving or resisting, as if disconnected from her conscious. She didn't even blink at half of her exoskeleton being sawed in half, crumbling in dark indigo pieces to the cold hard ground.

The feeling of being so helplessly restrained was all too familiar. Had she gone haywire? Were they sedating her again? She didn't want to sleep. She wanted to live. Even if there was nothing to do in this barren prison, she wanted to stay awake. Conscious. It was the one act of defiance that remained for her.

Suddenly, there was a bunny. Her friends used to tease her with lil bunny gifts all the time, ever since they found out she liked them. A hug? She wanted a hug. As much as she grew tired of their hugs and cuddles back then, a part of her really wanted a hug right now.

Oh, there was someone else. Running to her. Wait, wasn't she the one that lost her head?

Confusing. But something deep down told her to keep looking. The blurred faces appeared and approached in slow motion, their voices merging together in afterimages of themselves. White hair. Brown hair. Pale eyes. Gold eyes. Her gaze flicked rapidly between the two as she tried to recognize them.

Oh. Pam and Izzy. Pamela and Isabella. Heh, how is it only now realized their names rhymed? They sounded like a pair of twin sisters from some fairytale storybook.

"Pam, Izzy." Raia suddenly mumbled to herself, as if stating a fact. "Pam, Izzy." The giant leviathan repeated herself, almost like a mantra as she begun to stir from her grave. "Pam, Izzy. Pam, Izzy. Pam, Izzy." Her gaze flickered towards the restraints around her limbs, and with a single stomp and thrash of her tail, released herself from her confines.

Clarity. She reached it. Was the world always this beautiful? Growling softly, her muscles rippled as she coalesced her strength and maintained her crumbling form, her gaze returning to Shen. But this time, with a calm lucidity.

"Is it worth it? Endangering your close ones for an old grudge?" Raia questioned lightly, her tone almost as languid as usual as she struck forth.

Although she could not process it at the time, she had seen it. That subtle glance. The urgent tone. Even if she could not understand the language, she knew. After all, she'd been there. She'd used the same subtlety, feigning nonchalence to protect them. She was once a leader too.

Though she had lost that intimidating air of raw, bloodthirsty violence as previous, Raia's attack now held the cold gleam of calculation, her bloody claws flaring outward in a more measured, almost predicative stabbing motion. If belatedly, she also noticed the symphony bolstering her every movement, and made a mental note to thank the bard later.

Actions:

(1) Raia thrashes about with her giant tail and breaks out of her chain bindings early
- Basic attack (2 (Tail E) + 3 (STR D)) = 5 effectiveness vs 3 HP bindings (Tangle F)
(2) Call of the Deep F
- Transformation F, Energized F
- Raia forcibly maintains her other form.
(3) Inhuman Strike E (Using Right Hand Claws D)
- Athletics F, Fighting Style [Amalgamate] E, Continuing F [Poison], Incurable F, Weaken [Strength] F, Energized E
- Raia strikes at her target with her claws, embedding a complex amalgamation of substances akin to venom into/onto them.
