((Wait, so the light is effectless?
And the reference is to Cado Long. Burning ants under a magnifying glass.
For five hours straight.))

((Shame shame Venom, you at least should have gotten that!))
Joe didn't give her the chance. Seeing the effect the gauntlets had had, he darted forward, throwing a flurry of punches at her. Even if he wasn't necessarily hitting, he was keeping her occupied for Fyrin and Marco to make a move.

((Ooooh, that's what you meant about member incest.
And Gertrude is dodging the light. You'll need to hold her in place before you can do much to her.))
Gertrude hopped back, parrying and dodging with tight motions. As they came across a car, she backflipped over it and threw it at Joe.

"Oh perfect."
The car exploded as Marco raised his right hand from where he knelt. Joe blasted straight through the gap as it was opening, intent on nailing this crazy woman.
Once again, he engaged her, fists flying like an old kung fu movie.

Gertrude flipped backwards into a handstand, kicking Joe's face as she moved back.

Joe's current velocity, combined with his weight and the fact that Gertrude was ridiculously strong, meant that Gertrude's attack hurt.
Joe's head was sent back as his torso tried to continue forward, which in less than a second led to Joe's feet leaving the ground. He landed on his back with a loud whumph.
However, his hands grabbed onto her ankles just as Marco unleashed another volley of pinpoint force attacks, strong enough to shatter buildings and focused enough to do damage to Gertrude. By limiting her high mobility, Joe hoped to deal some real damage to her. Marco, ever the opportunist, had seen this and responded.

Gertrude cried out in fury as she tried to knee Joe's head, trying to get him to release her as the sun focused on her. She heard the buildup from Marco and dropped against Joe, choosing a bit of fire over Marco's kinetic blasts. She headbutted him on the ground and tried to pull back.

"No way," Joe said as he wrapped his arms around her. "Marco! Hit us both!"
Not only was she getting burned by Joe, but the focused sun now had her in its beam. Marco contributed by walking forward to get closer so that it was easier to focus his attack. He raised his hands and brought them together so that the two sigils made a new, larger one.
"Here we go," he murmured as he pulled his hands back to his side, then pushed them forward to send a laser-like attack straight at Gertrude.

Joe, it seemed, has underestimated the strength of a ********, ages-old vampiress becoming fearful.
"Get off! Don't touch me!" Gertrude screeched, squirming. "Get off! GET OFF! GET OFF!!" She twisted and launched both herself and Joe into a tree, lighting it on fire as they both crashed into it headfirst.

"Oh, holy balls," Joe said as he renewed his grip on her as they hit the ground. "This is so stupid."
He rolled so that he was on top, moved one hand to her neck, and raised the other for a punch. "What the hell do you even want?" Joe asked as he slammed his fist down.

"Get off!" Gertrude repeated hysterically, this time throwing them into a traffic light, which shuddered from the impact, although Gertrude had ironically been the one who had taken most of the hit. She threw them again, this time causing them to crash through a wall into an office building; small fires began to burn. She arched her back so forcefully they flipped twice in midair before they landed with her on top.

"Ooof!" Joe coughed as they landed again. His healing ability was working overtime to keep him in good condition.
Marco broadsided the crazy vamp at high speeds, tackling both of the combatants to the side. This left Joe on top after a bit of rolling, and Marco standing nearby.
"Answer the question," Joe said as he struck again.

Gertrude screeched the same thing as she had before, swinging her neck to the side and around to deflect Joe's punch and catch his arm in her teeth.

"Uhh...Ow?" Joe said. With his healing ability, he could also dull pain, and such a focused area was no problem at all. In Avatar mode, he had doubts that she could do anything vampiric either.
He grabbed her hair with the hand attached to the arm that she bit, then brought his other fist down on her head.

Joe suddenly felt his fire fading. His mana was moving involuntarily toward the point in his arm Gertrude bit.
