Welcome to Gaia! ::

River was able to avoid the first grenade but chunks of shrapnel ripped past, one in particular cut a nice gash on the side of her leg. She scowled but had a wicked thought. She just needed more magic to be able to do this. Quickly reaching into her vial bag, she found a high ether and choked down the vile liquid. She watched everyone carefully, observed their battle waiting for the right timing. Taking her chain off her shoulder she swung it to her side in a circle she had to flash a grin as she ran towards the others. Just as Fuzzy got out of the way, she whipped the chain at Surgev trying to wrap the chain around his frame.

{If first grapple misses use this:}
She felt the chain loosen, so just to ensure she wrapped him she whipped the chain once more hoping for a better result.

{If grapple is successful hit continue}
Pulling sharply on the handle she counted down knowing now the precise timing, expecting to take some of the blow, she braced herself just before the explosion. She felt a harsh pull and clung to the chain feeling it whip back at her from the blow as a burst of sand, grenade shell and dirt threw her back tossing her to the ground, she rolled twice and just lay there coughing from the sand. Glancing over she saw almost like a cloud, the debris hovered in the air.

What was it about that girl, she evaded the first shot, then seconds scatter got her and gig, but then she evaded the third as well. Was she alot stronger then he thought? While he managed to pull the behemoths face in to the ground to hurt him, as he struck his back it did nothing. Then he was met with gig flying right at him he could not do anything to avoid it, he tried to put his arms up to protect his body, but even that was not fast enough, he got two deep slashes shaped like a x across his chest. then he received several more slashes, before being thrown back to the ground hard. The initial hit against the hard ground would knock the wind out of him, but he saw the glint of the behemoths armor high in the air rapidly falling at him like a purple rocket. He would lash his whip out to his left side, sticking the three claws in to the ground, he would tug it hard. this would literaly makes him roll to the side wrapping the whips around him like it was a spring pulling him back to the point where the claws stuck in to the ground cause most of the behemoths attack to miss, minus a few scrapes from the flinging debris from the impact. He stood his whips falling from around him, grinning crazily. "My oh my, such aggressive fighters you are! he WHAT!" He didnt notice tills it was to late the girl wrapped him with her own whip. "Whats this?" He would struggle and grin, he didnt know what was coming.

Then as the five grenades went off simultaneously it created a massive explosion him being the center the explosions aimed inwards. It was incredibly, he may of very well of been in love, such a beautiful technique. As river flew away mid air, it was his turn. the silver would would pierce out from the black dust from grenade explosion lasso like trying to wrap around rivers body.

(continue if grapple is successful.)
The whip suddenly tightened around her torso, then he would jerk her back at him, where he would thrust the hilt of the whip in to her torso. Then he would grab a different part of the whip and and look her in the face. "Girl...i think i might be in love!" with a crazed grin from ear to ear he would, jerk it trying to send her high in to the air to crash her in to the ground. Then once again he would try to pull her in to the air and back down hard in to the ground. This time he would turn his body making her slide against the ground as he spun his whip, then he wuld try to take her in the air and slam her in to the ground agian two more times. He would walk over to her stnding over her, he would grab the rifle he used before, he was going to kill her execution style.

(Continue here if grapple unsuccessful)
When he tried to jerk it tight he missed, and he would jerk the whip back and with her mid air he would just slash the whip 7 ties in a frenzy across her body, legs, arms, and even her face. The entire time with a crazed look on his face. It was obvious he was enjoying beating ans slashing on her body. yet still it was to provoke giglamesh. Finally after she laded he would walk over her body where it lied and change to his rifle, he was going to kill here execution style.

ღ River felt the whip snake around her and she was jerked over to Surgev. Before she could react she felt the hilt of the whip jam into her solar plexus knocking the wind out from her and found herself looking him in the eye. Things went downhill from there. Growing pale from his comment she found herself weightless then hitting the ground hard; she coughed sand and blood before she was flung again into the air. She blacked out a moment and felt a heavy hit and she coughed once more and heard the crunch of boots soft in the sand. Fear rang loud and true; but she knew Gig would help. She had faith.

Sure enough she heard Gig speak and the man turned. She took advantage of the distraction she gingerly sat up and tried to pry herself from the whip. Swearing mildly she picked up her fallen chain and glared at Surgev, hoping Gig beat the man senseless before killing him. She gave Gig a nod and headed away from the fight, walking sideways out of caution. ღ

{Roll for release from whip}

{What to do bout dice? :pokes it}

The tip of the whip went straight threw gig chest and out the back, but it was like he didnt move in the slightest. Then the area around where the whip pierced threw would fall away as sakura petals, then from that more and more would fall away, until it looked like giglamesh turned in to sakura petals from the wound outwards to his finger tips. Was it a illusion, or did giglamesh just phase out of reality. Suddenly behind surgev and in front of river, a large concentration of petals and it was like the fell away revealing giglamesh standing in front of her, and behind him. It really looked as if he was phasing in and out reality, like he was teleporting, however not as fast. Giglamesh would Plug some ear buds in to his belt buckle/horned skull/mp3 players. He would then change the music to classical. The instant music started, one could literally physically feel a pressure giglamesh was emitting It was unknown how though. Suddenly giglamesh extremely Rapidly would slash kagetsu vertical upwards at the left arm of surgev, with great force as if trying to remove it.

Surgev's eye got really wide as giglamesh dissapeared as he did, then with out any noise or anything he would feel the pressure behind him, seeing giglamesh standing there. But it was to late he already slashed very deeply in to his left forearm. he...wssnt like this before...what different!? surgev would think to himself, before whipping the whip back and braking it swiping at his torso horizontally from the left. Then would would strike him, and literally cut his upper half from his bottom half, then like before where he was wounded his body would fall away as sakura petals from the point of impact to the far tips till he was gone. "WHAT THE ******** IS GOING ON!"

Petals once against congregated behind surgev, they fell away reveal giglamesh standing there arms up high holding kagetsu overhead. He just stood there staring at surgev, was he waiting for him to attack so he was ope, or did he already attack, giglamesh was impossible to read this way because he showed no emotion and was like a heartless machine.

"Dam you!" He would quickly turn his body bringing the whip around at giglamesh throat, then he would snap it down and around back from surgevs left side. Then he would jerk it up and back down to make the whips tip do a stabbing like motion at his abdomen.

The first whip slashed threw his mouth severing the top of giglamesh's head, the second his right arm, and cutting threw giglamesh massive sword scythe kagetsu. The third literally went threw with enough force to make large hole threw his abdomen. Yet just like before from each wound giglamesh's body would just fall away as sakura petal until it reached the end of his body and he was gone. A large congregation of petal would form behind surgev again, and it was like giglamesh gave him enough time to notice him and turn around Giglamesh was leaning forwards, most of wright on his right leg, both hands on the long handle of kagetsu, which was straight back like his leg. Then the second he looked giglamesh would slash extremely violently vertically up, literally slashing threw the ground hitting him with rocks and some type of oil that was in the ground. The force of the blow caused alot of petal to spiral upwards in the air above giglamesh slash.

Mg: Oil blast2-5 (Ability: critical strike) auto-hit

He felt some dirt or sticky mud splash on his face, but he didnt care he was angry he could not hit giglamesh, with this technique of his. He would again rapidly slash the whip with a series of three strike trying to hit giglamesh, hoping he would not turn in to flower petals again as he had several times. "Stop running and fight me!!!"

ღ River blinked unable to follow Gig's movement as he appeared between her and Surgev. Once out far enough, she leaned against one of the larger rocks, far enough away to feel somewhat safe, but close enough to observe. She blinked and stood a bit straighter seeing a beautiful swarm of pink cherry blossom petals. What the heck kind of spell is this? She wondered amazed. She noticed something too, something was... off. He had changed. Again Gig moved too fast for her to follow, but the aftermath chilled her. This battle was on a whole different level. ღ
