Alpersite

Tinaksite

9 + 8 + 6

All of the sudden, her happy little group was in a panic and Tinaksite was more or less alone in this crazy world that just so happened to be on fire. She watched in utter bewilderment as first Wolframite fell to the ground, and then with a few panicked cries, Laven followed, and with a quiet breath, the Captain forced a brave expression onto her face.

“Laven, get up. You must get up. We must help him up we—“ She broke off as something or someone bumped into her, nearly sending her to the ground too, but she only shoved back, grunting in annoyance.

“Laven, come, help me with him. We can not stay. Not with fire. We must keep going. He will be all right. We will be all right.” The words were becoming a mantra, and she hoped if she only just continued to say them enough…perhaps they would become the truth.

Reaching down, she began to stroke Wolframite’s hair lightly. “Wolf, you are safe. It is just me and Laven…come, get up. Get up and let us guide you…nobody will hurt you, I am here! I am strong, I will keep you both safe.”
Her clipped English was coming out in a much more gentle tone, and her fingers lightly massaged the male’s head. “Get up now. We must keep moving.”

If anyone would have told Tinaksite that she would be thrust into such a role…she would have said that they were crazy but.

Here she was. Through fire and flames, she would keep her friends safe.

Guardian Cat Brioche
Roll total: 6 + 2 + 8

Common sense or not, Brioche's fur stood on end. He didn't like being here, and while, yes, he wasn't scared, he was STILL offended that things were going this way.

He missed his cozy little spot in the playground's slide...

"Onwards onwards!" He called out to the two with him, weaving between the trampling feet that seemed to surround him. It seemed like it was a horrible idea to go towards a tent... Especially one that was urging them forward while they were surrounded by flames.

How rude.

"Come on, little ones! We'll be able to make it there just soon, I know it!"

Ya'll can respond to this one!

Izzy DeLuna
Rolls: 7 + 7 + 3

It felt like for-freaking ever before he finally caught up with people.

Even before he could say a word, person after shadow person knocked him around, up and down, left to right, screaming and shoving him like a punching bag.

Needless to say, he was pissed, and swung a punch at one of those fake people. But, as he should have known, it did nothing to him, only helping him spin around and end up toppling over the side of the platform. He barely managed to stop himself from hurling into the abyss by both the fast reaction time he had to cling to the edge, and the fact that horses were pushing and nipping at his poor dangling backside.

"HELP! HELP ME I'M GONNA FALL!! I DON'T WANT TO BE EATEN BY THESE HORSE FREAKS!"

Ya'll say hallo to this angry kid who is about to fall into the pit.

Wavesoul Fantasia

Sailor Adorea, Senshi of Optimism
(Roll History: 7+4+6 = 17)

In the grand scheme of things, she would probably look back on this day and remark that it wasn't the wisest choice she could have made. However, as Mia began to fall off the edge the senshi did the only thing she knew how to do. She let her instincts guide her and plunged after her; a willing descent from the senshi who could have otherwise pushed her way through the crowds to safety.

There had been method to her madness of course, as she fell she used her momentum to grab hold of one of the edges and swung herself near the historian. She was far from nimble but her crude machinations would become clear as she grabbed hold of the civilian and promptly threw her upwards. There were benefits to being a senshi and while she would never reach knight-levels of pure strength, she could certainly use her better than average abilities to her advantage.

...Hell, just to make sure it worked she even used her legs to thrust the woman back upwards towards safety, very much leaving herself with nothing to hold on to.

"Don't let the kid fall!" She called back up.

There was a momentary pause and then a quiet realisation that in the moment she hadn't accounted for the fact that her actions had left her with nothing to grab and she found herself falling. A perfectly avoidable result, but something that something inside her had deemed necessary...

Sailor Lacerta (of Bandages) (( 3 + 2 + 6))

The fact hadn't escaped her that Arnica had returned to shield her from further attacks from whatever had been pursuing her from beyond the chasm that she had almost fallen into. The senshi of bandages couldn't help but pant softly as exhaustion threatened to overtake her but when she glanced up and managed to get to her feet the teen realized that things were literally going from bad to worse. Like an out of the frying pan and into the fire sort of way. The redhead had to wonder just why at times she kept powering up. That being thought the girl turned to Arnica and managed a weak, but emphatic, "thank you," to the dark mirror senshi.

Her gaze swept past the two of them before her violet-blue eyes widened in concern. Wincing as she took a shaky step forward she turned around in a circle before catching sight of flames. Her nose caught the acrid smell of smoke and for a minute she almost believed that the fire was at risk of sweeping over them before reality asserted itself. The only danger that she and Arnica now faced was being swept from the platform. "We gotta find something to hold onto! Othwerise we'll go over the edge."

Her head turned from side to side before trying to grab onto the dark mirror senshi in order to keep both themselves safe.

Irkalla, Page er Squire of Cosmos (( 7 + 8 + 2 ))

She had been right to want to go home. Irkalla had made it safely to the center of the spinning platform but what awaited the woman was not a place that promised safety. Being one of the first to make it to safety meant that the hoard of people that was suddenly on the horizon made contact with Irkalla first. The page stumbled at the first contact that was made and continued to be battered from all sides until realizing that her position had changed precariously in the throng of fleeing individuals. Now Irkalla found herself teetering on the edge of the platform. Pieces were still crumbling away and if it weren't for her string of ornaments that she'd wrapped around the leg of a shadow horse ... she'd have been over the edge - seemingly forgotten.

Barely holding on as it was Irkalla could feel her shoes losing traction and with a short scream of surprise the page of Cosmos tumbled off the edge to hang suspended in mid-air. The string of ornaments had done the trick but how long would it hold out for? Long enough for someone to realize her precarious situation? Or would it fail before then? She sent out a silent plea for anyone or anything to come to her aid.

Irkalla didn't know how long exactly she was suspended in the air for but a silence fell over the page and for a moment she swore that she heard; emanating from her ornament string; the most wondrous music she'd ever heard. But that was ridiculous right? Strings of ornaments, especially hers didn't play music. And yet that was what she for sure was hearing. Almost reverently did Irkalla touch the golden star that was within her reach and flinched as the ornament suddenly flashed with a brilliant light. A wave of something passed over Irkalla. Something that infused her with a growing sense of more power. Strength flooded her limbs and as she managed to clasp more tightly to the ornament string the realization dawned on her that the string was something more cord like. It was a rope.

Pulling herself up with newfound strength flooding through her Irkalla managed to haul herself back over the edge and released her rope from around the hock of the horse that had been an unwitting volunteer. Patting the creature the woman quickly decided to put as much distance as she could between herself and the edge. Only then when she deemed herself away from further danger did she examine the changes wrought on her "weapon" and also the changes to her outfit ... for she had changed. Recalling a conversation from the past Irkalla wondered if this had been her moment of advancement. Did that make her a squire now?


(( As a note: I did clear the upgrading to Squire in the ORP with Kapoodles. From now on Irkalla will be rolling as a Squire ))

(Helps if I actually roll! x.x )
