Welcome to Gaia! ::

Chibi Super Charybdis, Senshi of Seals - absolutely exe

It was Chaos. It was all Chaos. Charybdis hated it. She was sobbing, and a senshi (Monoceros) had arrived, and there were quills, and the Lieutenants were escaping, and she clung to Ara when the older Chibi pulled her head into her shoulder, small hands clutching at her friend's back, feeling them shake.

The fact that some of the Bad-Feel senshi- Tegmine, Acubens, Lacerta, and Ariadne- had come to help protect her and Ara wouldn't be forgotten; and as flames spurted, tentacles flailed, a dragon flew away, quills fell like rain, and a Chaos senshi braced to protect their retreat, Charybdis was spirited away.

Over Tegmine's shoulder as they rushed away, Charybdis blinked and stared at the sight of a page being lifted into the air on a pole, a red curtain of- oh.

Oh, she didn't want to see anymore.

Closing her eyes and focusing on the warm feeling of the arms around her, the skinny chibi curled in on herself like a pup.

Dark Mirror Eternal Acubens -- C3
Quills were flying. Youma were soaring overhead. Faustite was fire. And there was a squire screaming as an officer impaled them. This was too much. It was too close. Everything was too loud. Acubens could feel panic welling up inside her but she swallowed it down. She whipped her head around at the chaos all around her, made a quick judgment call, and said, "get on my back. We've got an opening to get out now, but if we miss it, then that's it."

If they missed it Acubens would have to book it out without magic, and there was no guarantee that she'd be able to do so without incident. At least with her super attack, she'd bowl over anyone in her way.

Next to her, Lacerta was taking charge. Later, Acubens would be proud. She was proud now, but later she would be able to really feel it. She'd come so far, and now here she stood, fearless in the thick of battle. Right now, however, beyond pride, she was terrified. It had been so long since Acubens had seen real battle, not just the odd youma scrap. She'd forgotten how horrifying it was. She wanted to get them both out of there, get them both home, and go home herself.

She wanted to curl herself around Lavender and shake and sob and take a day -- no, a whole week off.

But that was for later. Now was the time to fight enough to be able to flee.

Dark Mirror Tegmine -- C3
The page trusted Tegmine, and he intended to live up to that. He nodded at him when he gestured and lifted Charybdis into arms, still curled protectively around her.

And then he ran. He ran until his chest was on fire and he thought his legs would give out. He wasn't a runner like Acubens. He didn't have the stamina to go as long or as hard as she did. But he kept going. Behind him Acubens and Lacerta and the basic they were protecting got smaller and smaller. He focused, instead, on the ordered feeling he was following, the sighed of him in front, leading the way.

"Don't look," he muttered, to both the child in his arms and to himself. "Don't look."

He pressed her head down into his shoulder and kept running.

Super Sailor Hydrus, DMC of Leviathans - B5

He watched as Krakenlady and Acubens ran off because of someone screaming mommy and ran a hand down his face. These.... these people. All of them. His own court, the Negaverse, the White Moon, just what in the actual---

That was a dragon. And a man set himself on fire. A man. Was on. Fire.

Then there was another scream, this time behind him, and Hydrus saw the faint glint of red against metal and there was a page on a spear.

Hydrus emptied the contents of his stomach on the ground and looked to the rest of the Dark Mirror Court around him, those that were left.

"Get out of here. Now. We've already had one White Moon senshi try to kill us, and the Negaverse is turning bloodthirsty. You can take it up with Remarque later, but we are leaving. If you cannot mirrorwalk, follow me." His voice was stern, hard, and livid but not at any of his court. Not even Acubens or Logos. He gave one last look at the chaos around them, and started off. "Get the cat out of the tree and get the hell out of here, even you Cosmos Page."

Hydrus Exit

General Chambersite - Gone (either with both/one/none)

Well, he was a bit more than surprised that the Lieutenant and Senshi were willing to help him fight. He would have expected that more from any subordinates that directly reported to him. Well, he would have to reward them then. He couldn't let them get injure for no reason, especially for a reason being as silly as attempting a forced corruption.

He immediately summoned his rapier as the Senshi attempted to kick him in the side after his hadn't worked and tried to maneuver it so that it went slightly under the protruding leg at an angle. Enough to get cut at least.

It was hard to when the cat was attempting to rip open his boots and get at his skin. The thought that first came to mind was attempting to shake off the cat or hit it with his rapier, but that would allow the Senshi to continue his attack. And he saw something from the corner of his eye, he saw the Corrupt attempting to kick the cat. He would just have to deal with the pain for now. He didn't become a General by avoiding it!

And the Lieutenant appeared to be going after the Eternal as well, at least with her "weapon". That left the Page, if he decided to be any trouble.

Before they could really get to fighting the Senshi however, it appeared to have all gone to chaos. Most were now leaving, including Order. He couldn't help but sigh at the situation. "You two. We are going. Now. Ashanite is going to have to figure this out on his own. You won't be proving anything to anyone if you stay here." He said, grabbing the two of them and teleporting away. He had wanted to say more, but the priority was getting the both of them out of here if possible. It was Ashanite's idea to create this situation by force. He would have to deal with it.

Squire Sumner

Sumner grumbled to himself as he put his harp away. Clearly it wasn't going to be used now. It hadn't been useful at any point that he had attempted. As much as he didn't want to fight, he also wanted to believe that his magic was at least helpful in this war.

The General had done what she had wanted to and Pendour had stayed right on top of her. Before he could even attempt to try to get into the battle it had gotten to the point where one could barely tell what was going on.

And then the auras started to fade away. Something was wrong, he wasn't sure what it was though. There was the yelling, which was the usual, and then it appeared that the General had vanished, all without throwing a fist. He supposed it was something that Pendour had hoped for but...

He took a look around, attempting to see what was going on through the trees and was that... smoke or fire? He looked at the transcended Squire. "Pendour, this is bad. We need to either look to see if anyone needs help or get out of here."

Super Hydor [Square A2]

Hydor found himself staring with quite a level of intense curiosity and anger at what was going on behind him, drawn back into the conversation by the general--Titanite--still somehow claiming she was innocent.

Nasty.

He smirked.

Let her think he was nasty, he hardly gave a s**t. If it kept her away from him, good-- his face twisted and he found himself letting out a low growl when she accused him of having dirty hands. Sure, he wouldn't deny that taking a more aggressive approach occasionally dirtied hands. It was also a deserved reaction to a faction that stole and ate literal souls, to a faction that took away his friends' parents and made them into literal monsters, to a faction that wove itself in and thought that stealing people to make them into puppets was an acceptable use of time.

He had also gone through too much to keep sitting by and let it happen.

He opened his mouth to give her what for, but she was -- gone.

Literally gone.

He stood blankly for a moment, mouth agape as he tried to figure out where his mind was, and decided he was about to reveal far too much to total strangers and bottled it back up under the storms and the waves. He heard Sumner, glanced behind him.

Somehow, that s**t had only gotten worse.

Maybe he actually agreed with the squires.

"Look, I," he felt odd making an offer, but looking over behind him both scared him and made him wanted to take intensive notes so he knew which people to watch out for and tell everyone to stay away from, "probably got one more use of that whirlwind ability. Acts as a shield. Uh. Think there's anyone we can still ******** help over there or should we just get the ******** out?"

Viatrix [Square D2 to OUT]

She sunk her claws in successfully and was about to let out a victorious whoop when one of the other two people that came with the general came flying up behind her. Well, at least, that was what it felt like when a leg suddenly connected with her mid-section, and she let out something like a harsh yowl when it pushed her and every bit of her instincts came out. Oh no.

How dare this senshi.

The primary rule of cats was their liquidity (right behind their epic level abilities to be a pain in the a**), and she decided to tap right into that as her claws went out and she clung hard. The momentum was still something she couldn't quite shake, and she found herself sent flying a couple of feet while she scrambled in the air to find herself somehow, magically, back on her feet again, but that didn't happen without first attempting to curve her body around the woman's foot like she was a sock and leaving streaks in her wake.

She righted herself and growled to show her anger, but then--

Then the general told the senshi and the lieutenant they were leaving, and Viatrix found herself hooting out a victory at just how very easily they had driven at least a few of the stinky oyster auras off. She turned her attention to Encke.

Encke was looking behind him.

Ah -- now what?

Did he want to go back and deal with them? Because she understood that, but what about the others, the other auras she felt in the vicinity and retreating from the vicinity and--

Transcendent Eternal Encke [Square D2 to C3]

The coin to the side of his head was, admittedly, annoying, but nothing he found himself unable to deal with. He rebalanced and stared down the general, wincing at the cut of the rapier but finding himself quite willing to go on for more. Especially, well--

Encke practically saw red when someone went for his guardian cat.

Could Viatrix handle herself? Assuredly. Did that mean he wanted someone kicking her? No. He growled, ignoring all pretense of perhaps going lighter on the lieutenants and the corrupt senshi; newer, perhaps easier to convince of the Negaverse's evils and slowly pry away from the source - they were attacking now, and they were attacking people who were definitively fully defenseless--

Well, until they were not.

Chambersite suddenly issued the command to the other two to leave and therefore left, leaving Encke and a very victorious guardian cat and no one to direct his rage at. It tempered it, for a moment, tempered it a bit further when he turned back behind himself and realized that Basiluzzo had not only gone over to the fountain but had also left the fountain -- he could only assume it was with the children, hope it was with the children --

And the anger came rushing back at full force.

"Via, go find Basi and the kids! I'm gonna go deal with the generals!"

Viatrix nodded, running off in one direction while Encke took back off toward the bulk of those leaving.

And the bulk of those remaining.

Quills. Fire. Faustite. Didn't know the one with the long coat and the purple shirt, but was safe to make the assumption that it was, at least, one of the other generals. He spotted Scylla, nodded in acknowledgment of her, and took on a defensive stance, glowering in the direction of Faustite and the other general.

"I don't know whose idea this shitshow was, but it's time for you all to leave."

Encke was very prepared to reinforce that.
