Mal tried very hard not to think about what might happen when Circe was defeated. When she was locked up or whatever, who knew, what was going to happen to the teens? For every animal they hit and knocked down or (gulp) killed, would they have beaten up or dead teenagers on their hands afterward? It made the hair on the back of his neck stand up when he thought about it, so every time the thought surfaced, he pushed it aside for later. Another damn time. Not now.

A muffled curse escaped her mouth as her whip's leather merely grazed an oncoming beast's claws. She managed, barely, to get out of the way but she hated doing so little damage against this horde of enemies. With a jump sideways, she saw Rose fighting and knew that no matter how little she did, she had to try.

Beth thought she saw Misha somewhere before her, amidst the fighting of animals and humans. She dodged and whipped where appropriate, trying to get to a corner of the room to catch her breath.

When she thought she might falter from the gore of blood, fur and flesh, she'd spot Marisol in battle. She'd see Ernst, practically pantless, bringing down pain on the unfortunates around him. She'd see her friends and acquaintances not giving up, not losing heart, and as vile as it was, Rose would continue to do what she could.

Ernst refocused and kept going. The sika looked like it'd been beat up on enough - he didn't want to kill someone. He really didn't want to kill someone, unless it was maybe Circe.
He almost tripped over a thin, noodle-esque tail, and had no regrets about bringing his shield down to smash it. Tails weren't vital body parts for snakes, were they? He hoped not, because this guy probably didn't have a choice about being, well, a mindless animal...but he was also in the group of Chosen's way. They had to get to Circe because otherwise this was just going to be some futile Sisyphean trial - she could always make more animals.

Perhaps Zebulon was worn out from having to sleep in a camp and eat camp rations for a week, or perhaps he truly was feeling bad for the duped gothic teenagers, but he couldn't seem to land a hit no matter how hard he tried.
Zebulon missed dramatically, overswinging and nearly stumbling over himself.

Character Name:Zebulon Castaneda Brief description of character: Zebulon accompanies his even temper and clear mind with an oft-frustrating tendency to be snarky even in the most serious moments, needling people far past the point he should. Tagging along is a need for control, tempered by the fact that he does usually know what he's talking about. His normal ease seems lessened at current, though his control over himself is back now that he's removed enough from the conflict with the metal vulture.

The snake still seemed pissed that Ernst had struck it, though. It turned around and hissed at him, extending its jaw - and he darted back, waiting for another opening.
There were so many people!

The pale wolf lunged at an avian leg, jaws closing around it as the bird tried to take off and yanking it back forcefully to the ground.
Birds. Why'd it always have to be birds.

Zan heard a strange creaking, and then three of the Chosen were hanging from the ceiling and he was pinned under one of Circe's minions, a large, floppy rabbit of some sort. He managed a couple of desperate bites to its side, dealing enough damage to distract the creature into moving so he could wiggle free, but by that point those who had been detained had fought their way out of it as well.

So he'd pulled back in fear of that snake, and now, try as he might, Ernst didn't seem to be able to get a hit in. He spotted a pretty wolf and would've gone for it - except then, uh, he realized that the wolf was acting like it had some sense, and was fighting something with thick black eyeliner. It had to be a Chosen. Maybe he could go for its target?
Or - s**t, everyone was moving so fast and all of a sudden Ernst felt lost.

Whipping around at something that narrowly grazed her flank, the wolf snarled and grabbed at what looked like a moose's leg. What the hell could she do against a leg but be an ankle biter?
She'd do just that, then, a growl trickling between her teeth as she clamped them down, hard.

Less wrist, more elbow, short movements and not much about moving. Mal wanted to keep his ground, like a pillar standing against the tide. Only he thought that he might be swept off his feet anyway.

He held his shield close to his chest as he looked for an opening, or an animal that was obviously not on his side, or - something, you know? Were there more vines to wreck?
It looked like the wolf was engaging with a huge moose, but the problem was that he'd have to reach over Rose to hit it, and he wasn't sure that he'd be able to avoid hitting her.
So he moved off in a different direction, careful to protect himself as he did.
