It was over... he was just tired.. and without just dropping the lady there wasn't anyway he was getting out. His eyes had already began to dart for the ceiling, looking for the best place to hide from the biggest debris.
Only... it seemed the page from before was there again and Bimini's eyes widened to huge saucers of appreciation as assistance was offered. He didn't know the particular page himself, but he was ever grateful and once he found out his name well... certainly some day he'd find a way to return the favor! Or at the very least try.
Door shattered Bimini quickly fled out into fresh air, running only far enough away to settle the unconcious woman onto the grass. He should really get the heck out of dodge... but he couldn't help but linger in the shadows, waiting to make sure the page that had saved him also made it out alright.

Okay, well, that wasn't going to go to work, but at least she'd gotten her civilian friend free. Perhaps she'd try the front door? It didn't look blocked--at least, not where she stood.
[rolly 4/5]

The whole place really was coming down around them. And there was nothing they could do to stop it, from the sound of Pasiphae's voice. It seems there were some limits on this magical girl stuff.
"Right." She agreed with making an escape immediately -- if there were civilians left at this point, they could be tended to by someone stronger. Hell, they may need some help by the end of this. Her friend was in bad enough shape before this disaster. She noticed two others of her kind (Sessrumnir & Bimini) -- at least, she thought they were... at least not Negaversians, anyway -- one kicking down a door for the other who had a civilian. Yes! "This way," Nyx said, taking the lead.

Sessrumnir watched as Bimini rushed out and into the fresh air with the civilian, glad that he got out okay. Now if he could only get the women out... "Need help, Wonder Woman?" He called over to Pasiphae, coughing a little from inhaling the smoke that was building. Now that there was a fresh source of oxygen for the fire to feed from, he knew that they only had so long before they'd be dealing with more problems than being crushed. He wasn't really looking forward to being burned alive and was hoping to get out before that could happen.
He glanced over to where Avalon was, glad to see that it looked like she was getting out. Now it was just the two others. "Come on..." he said, coughing again, and he lifted his long sleeve to cover his mouth, trying to use the fabric to filter the air he was inhaling. "Stay low to the ground if you can," he requested, reaching out to take hold of Pasiphae's good arm, making sure she wouldn't topple over from bad balance. "Taking too long, explain later," he told them wanting to get them to the opening.
In the time that it had taken them to get across the room, though, beams had fallen in the way, but now it was just a matter of getting the path cleared again and they would be able to get out. Sessrumnir let go of Pasiphae's arm, pushing her towards Nyx to look after as he reached out to lift the beam. If he could get the debris out of the way, they could at least get one of the girls out.
(Roll 3/5 to move the debris away from the door to get at least one of the girls out! — Success! )
Sessrumnir winced as he pulled the beam free, holding it up for someone to get out, but with the other weight put onto it, he knew he could only hold onto it for so long. His back was killing him and he could barely see out of one eye from when he'd been hit earlier. He could at least hold it up for at least one of the girls to get out. "Now's not the time to check your nails," he half joked, winking at them with his good eye and trying not to look too strained under the weight of the hot metal beams. His arms were shaking and one of them had better get out, otherwise that would have been completely pointless for him to try and get them to safety.

(I have permission to godmod Pasiphae a bit.)
Nyx nodded, taking the guy's advice by hunching lower, and gratefully letting him help support Pasiphae. The scratches at her back were stinging from movement and the debris, but it was better than choking. If he was their enemy in the long run somehow, then he certainly wasn't acting like it, and that was enough for her. The unintentional advantage of being nearly passed out on the ground for so long was beginning to wear thin as her lungs took on fresh smoke that billowed from around the doorway. Supports had collapsed into the escape route. She had never been so angry at inanimate objects.
A shift in Pasiphae's weight got her looking to their helper again. He was obviously more fatigued this time, but he was once again lifting the beam by himself! All of the misogynistic joking aside -- which was easier to do while fleeing for one's life -- he was a bit of a knight in shining armor. However, he didn't look like he would last much longer.
"You first!" Nyx more or less launched Pasiphae through ahead, and steeled herself to follow.
(Pasiphae escapes with above roll; rolling for Nyx to get out!
Ack, failure!)
She heard the crack just seconds before a small blast from the sheer force of another collapse boomed chunks of ash and cinders. She threw her arms up protectively and was forced back, cursing under her breath.

(Just as a little IC note, I changed the 'bombs' to 'exploding youma' in the round 3 post on page nine. I had upset some people with the use of bombs, which I wasn't thinking about, and I didn't mean to. I think it makes much more sense this way, and makes it easier to RP later! All the effects of the explosions remain unchanged, however, so hopefully no one's posts have been messed up. I'm sorry for the confusion and problems that arose from this! I never meant to upset anyone, and I'm glad so many of you have had fun <3 Real wrap up will come tomorrow still.)

"That works," he coughed as Pasiphae was practically thrown through the entry way and out of the building. It certainly kept him from worrying about his grip slipping while she was on her way through. "Your turn," Sessrumnir nodded to Nyx, hoping she would hurry up and get through so he could somehow dig his own way out, but another explosion went off and he felt his grip on the beam slip. He fell back into a pile of rubble, although he was quick to lift his hands to shield his head and his face from any falling particles. They couldn't stay there any longer... The building wasn't going to last.
"Come on," he hissed in exasperation at the doorway when he was able to get a look. It was now blocked with even more debris and he doubted his ability to be able to move enough to make an opening for the both of them. But maybe there was another way out? Sessrumnir quickly scanned the walls around them. If they could find another way out, that would at least keep him from having to move even more s**t out of the way.
There was another door on the other side of a pile of rubble, and he quickly scrambled over the top to see if he could kick that one open as well.
(Roll 4/5 to see if this new door can be opened to get Nyx out. Success~ )
"Over here!" he called, waiting until Nyx had made her way over before he tried anything. He felt the door to make sure there was no fire, as he had with the other, but was pretty certain it lead to the outside. There was only so much time they had left, and he wanted to get Pasiphae's friend out, because she would take care of the other girl, at the very least.
He took a step back as he had with the other, before landing a kick above the latch. Something was telling him that it was his newfound super powers that was helping him with these doors. He was pretty sure he wouldn't have been able to do it as a civilian. Or at least he'd never had to break down these kinds of doors while in the service.
Regardless, the door was cracked open, but the rest of the building didn't look like it was going to last. "Any time now," he called again, waiting for her to get out first, but he could blame that on habit. He'd only been off duty for a few months now, after all.

Nyx coughed a gasp when Sessrumnir lost his grip on the beam and landed in the fallen debris -- she didn't enjoy being a 'damsel in distress,' but it didn't mean she felt any more equipped to get someone out from under a building, nonetheless one on fire. Sometimes, one just had to bow out.
"Are you..?" she started to ask, but cut herself off. No one was really "okay" or even not hurt at this point. Relief washed over her when Sessrumnir was up again, and already digging out another exit. Her hands were singed from the last blast of embers, but she did her best to try to clear some of the wreckage to give a clearer shot. The moment the door had an opening, Nyx dived through quickly, determined not to waste another chance.

No one really liked being the damsel in distress, unless they just really liked being the center of attention. But this was a bit bigger than playing damsel and what have you. Right now, the most important thing was to get everyone they could out. There were already too many pointless deaths and he was starting to wonder what the hell he had gotten himself into. Grabbing that storm glass was like a contract, and although he had the option to just ignore everything going on around him, he knew he wouldn't be able to live with himself if he did.
He held his sleeve up to his mouth again as he watched Nyx get out of the building. Sessrumnir took one last look around to see if he could hear anyone calling for help. He didn't think the whole building would collapse, and he could hear sirens already... but being trapped in a fire still was a sucky way to go.
(Roll 5/5 to get out. Success!)
Not seeing anything else he could do, the page quickly followed the senshi out, and not wanting to linger, slipped into the shadows to power down. His helmet was already covering his face from when he put it on before he powered up. If anyone saw him, they would only know he rode a motorcycle. He might need to get to the hospital to get his injuries checked out, though. But hell if he was going to stick around after something like that.

It was rather clear Kyndall needed to get other people out before herself. She had a duty to help the others who were too afraid to think clearly. She saw a women very near to her and moved to approach, smiling in what she hoped was a reassuring way and reaching out to put a comforting hand on her shoulder.
The woman screamed and ran away.
Maybe it was the debris falling around them. Maybe it was the blood on her shirt or the makeshift bandage. Either way Kyndall's mouth formed a surprised "o" and she felt like a little bit of a failure as the woman in question darted further into the building despite the deep rumbling.
The ceiling was already broken through and coming down easier than the rest of it but it was an extraordinarily dangerous place to be. If the drama teacher had more sense she would have realized that building was coming down faster than she thought and she needed to get out of there. Poor Kyndall...you fail.
