Velora The satisfied smirk on Velora's features must have stung even more than her fangs did, as she stood there with her heel pressed into Layla's stomach. "Aww, where did all that spirit go? You look so cute when you're helpless though...!" When Layla finally opened her mouth to speak, she realized what she was doing right as she began to speak. The sudden spark of energy around her, focused around her... arm. Instinct took over, and right as the energy began to spike to release the summon, Velora's arm shot up, a crimson tendril extending from her hand and speeding towards Layla's arm, causing her sudden pain as the tendril stabbed straight through her skin and flesh, slamming into the materia with enough impact to force it out the other side. Luckily, materia didn't tear through flesh, so she would only suffer the entrance wound, as the materia would harmlessly pass out of her arm. "....Oh. That was clever. Clever girl." The tendril jerked back out of Layla's arm, going back to Velora's hand and vanishing. "You almost had me!" The pressure she was applying to Layla's stomach with her heel increased significantly. "Of course, even if you had managed to summon it, I would have just destroyed it..." Could she have? Honestly, she was in no hurry to try. Even for all her power, it didn't guarantee her victory. "So that was your trump card, mm? Not bad! But not enough. It's time to-" And suddenly, a force slammed into her. ...Odd! Who could have possibly gotten the jump on her? It didn't hurt terribly, but it was strong enough that it sent her flying, slamming into a small building and destroying the wall. "...Oof." She let out, mildly perturbed."I guess it falls to me to interrupt this... creature." A small, pink-haired girl looked down at Layla. She looked fairly similar to Velora. Possibly related. "This is my only Elixir. Don't ******** up." Luella reached into her pouch, throwing the ultimate restorative potion over Layla. Her wounds would mend themselves instantly, her strength would feel restored, and she would feel at the top of her game. Perhaps even better than she did when the battle began, minus her pride. "If I can apply Pressure-" She let out a small grunt as Velora was... suddenly in front of her."Oh, hello, big sister..." Luella let out a pained yelp as she felt her knee jam into her gut, forcing the older sister onto her hands and knees. Luella certainly didn't look like the older sister of these two, but she was. "Should've known. Only someone related to me could've managed that! But nobody is going to save my precious slave~" She didn't seem aware that Layla had been healed. Raising her boot, she pressed her heel into the back of Luella's head, forcing her face down into the dirt. "Hehehee... you must be used to this by now, yes? Eat that dirt..." She twisted her heel atop her older sister's head, her satisfied smirk only growing as she did. "Hee-hee! That look suits you so well...!"While Velora's attention was on Luella, she wouldn't notice the now healed Layla would receive Luella's legendary buffs. Layla would feel her power increased by what felt like 1000 percent, she would feel lighter on her feet, making her faster, and just generally she would feel extreme improvement in all areas for fighting. She was being pushed far beyond her normal limits, and it was no hazard to her body whatsoever.
Luella's buffing potential was... amazing, to say the least. (( OOC: ))

Layla was obviously fighting her own emotions, she couldn't give her the satisfaction of knowing how much it bothered her. Though even then, it was pretty damn clear she wasn't enjoying it. She could only glare up at her with hate-filled eyes..........while she played at her secret plan. Lucky for her, she didn't seem to suspect it, and Layla did her best to not let it slip into her mind for her to catch.
To bad the spiking energy released enough light for her to catch...and she did. The result was like nothing she experienced before, she had never been stabbed before, in all of her battles and training exercises, so this small tendril Velora created to stop the summon, by stabbing the thing into her flesh, only to send it in a collision course with the materia to send it out of her arm. She imagined the pain from a blade would be something of terrible pain, but something even so small, like this, was horribly painful. But, even then....her pride continued to try to stay at the top as her free hand clasped down over her mouth, as to keep herself from screaming. She couldn't give her the pleasure!
The pressure of her boot against her stomach increased, which caused her hand to come away from her mouth, only to grab onto her lower leg, she had little energy, but she could very well try, to twist her leg....But instead, she was...suddenly no longer there? ..It took a moment for her to register what just happened so suddenly, only to see another pink-haired girl there. Oh god, what now? Was she another one? Maybe now it was a fight against two Reapers of which could lay claim on her. God, that would be her luck.
But it wasn't that, as she felt the sudden affects of her body healing, completely restoring in energy, too. This little pink-haired girl was here to help her? It couldn't be anymore confusing, but did it matter? She did just help her, so she obviously wasn't like Velora. "....." Before she could give her any thanks, though, Luella was suddenly now in the danger zone of the psychopath..and was quickly shoved down and into the ground. Yeah, this one had serious issues..
As Layla felt her energy returned fiercely, while Velora's attention remained on her apparent sister, Layla was quickly, but quietly, getting to her feet. Her free hand ran down her arm a moment, there was still blood there, but no more wound as the elixir had healed it, still she couldn't help but remember how damned painful that was! But now she had to repay Luella, by saving her now. Giving her hands a small shake, tiny sparks of electricity were emitted, and she rushed from behind Velora, her fist slamming with horrific power, into her back. This was back breaking,if not a danger of completely creating one large hole through her body if she didn't somehow protect herself. At the same time, her armor clad boot slammed at the back of her knee, intending to send her down. Had this worked, she would grab HER by the hair, and slam her face roughly, painfully into the ground! "A taste of your own medicine?! CHOKE ON IT! "

Velora"...Oh? Have you never been stabbed before...?" Why did that surprise her so much? This sort of world seemed like the kind where you couldn't avoid something like that. "Aww, I'm sorry if I hurt you too much..." She grinned a bit. To have always avoided being stabbed while using such a close-ranged fighting style, she must have been quite skilled indeed. It was extremely impressive, really. It brought quite a bit of satisfaction that she could be the first to bring her that sort of pain...
Then came yet another interloper, only to be put down just as easily. "Ehehehehee... Struggle! It's so cute! How does it feel, big sister? Ekoa got to see you kneel and quiver in fear. I want that! I want to see you lose all your pride and submit to your little sister... again." Her twisted grin widened even further. "For someone who believes herself perfect, you certainly lose a lot..." She giggled maniacally. God, this was such a nice feeling to her. "Maybe if you lick the dirt off my shoes, I'll- ???" Her head snapped to the side in sudden shock, as she finally realized Layla was... up? And... what? She was caught in a moment of surprise and confusion. How was this even possible? Portals appeared around her to summon chains, but she was too late. The portals immediately disappeared as Layla's fist made contact with her back. Oh god. It hurt so much. She let out a sharp scream in pain, and the armor encasing her skin broke. Layla had punched her so hard that a chunk of her armor cracked and broke, falling apart off of her. That... had... never happened before. She had never felt so exposed. Or in... so... much... pain... "Ahhh...! N-no..." Oh god. Just one hit did this. It hurt SO much. The pain was almost indescribable. As Layla harshly kicked the back of her knee, she could do nothing but be helplessly forced down onto her hands and knees, and soon her face was forced straight down into the dirt. "Urh!" She let out helplessly, breathing heavily from the pain. She didn't seem to be doing much to defend herself--at this moment, she couldn't. She could focus on nothing except the pain. For now, she was utterly helpless, dazed and in pain. "Ghh, it hurts...!" She let out meekly, as she laid down face-first in the dirt. She had never felt this helpless before in her entire existence...
Oh how the tables had suddenly turned...(( OOC: ))

When the Reaper's games came to her unfortunate and unexpected end, the cards were now in her hand. After what she put Layla through, and even Mist, she wasn't going to leave here unscathed. "You love to bring people pain, but you aren't so well at taking it yourself, are you? That's good. Feel some more. " She let her face rest in the dirt for a moment, just for added humiliation, before suddenly taking hold of her short pink hair, and lifting her up now. She may notice she wasn't quite so gentle, ether. If anything, she was far rougher then she was to her only moments ago! "Fly. " What did that mean?. ..... With her current physical strength and heightened adrenaline at it's highest it had ever been before, thanks to Luella's buffs, Layla was capable of becoming nearly superhuman.Very similar to Hayley, when she received the buff. That helped for this moment, when she suddenly literally, threw her fist into her chest upward, sending the Reaper into the air! The pain would be to great to even think of escaping by teleport, if she was lucky. Had that gone as she hoped, as the girl was speeding back to the ground, Layla made a leap into the air, only to slam her fist into her again! This time when she impacted the ground, it may leave a bit of a crater from the sheer force. Last, would be her foot coming to strike down directly on the tender area she was struck in moments ago, purposely putting on her own victorious pose, her long legs and slender form made for quite the winning pose... "How does it feel now?"

Velora"Unnngh..." Velora let out helplessly. Layla was correct--Velora was not good with handling pain. That was one reason she wore so much armor and used such a massive shield. Pain was almost scary to her. "S-stop..." She let out in almost a pathetic whimper. She had never felt so powerless before... and after how powerful she had just felt... she could feel her pride being ripped away from her piece by piece. "Aaah!" She squealed out as she was lifted so roughly by the hair. "S-stop! You're just a human... how can you... possibly..." She grunted. "A mere human shouldn't be able to... h-hurt me..." Her body began to quiver as she looked the girl in her blue eyes. "Wh-why do I feel so... afraid..." She meant to think that, but accidentally said it out loud... This was perhaps the biggest reversal the world had ever seen in a battle. "Wh..." Her eyes widened as she felt the sudden impact. "Gyaaaaaa!" She screamed out in pure pain mixed with terror. Her armor once again cracked and broke, shattering in several places around her. It hurt SO much... it was the worst pain she had ever felt in her life.
And then it came again, as she was struck again, sending her straight towards the ground. She let out another pained scream, slamming into the ground with amazing force. When the dust cleared, there she laid--still conscious--but beaten and broken. Her armor had been utterly and totally destroyed, and laid in pieces all around her and the immediate area. As if this complete reversal and destruction wasn't enough, almost all she had on under her armor was her undergarments, and with her armor destroyed, she had absolutely no protection for her skin except the cloth--which would do basically nothing. And then it came--a taste of her own medicine, truly, as Layla's heel struck directly down on her chest. "Aaaaaaa!! Gya...! Haaa... hhhh...." She began to whimper with pain, panting heavily as she laid there underneath Layla's heel.
She could do nothing.
She had lost. So... so much.
In her pained state, she finally was able to focus her vision upward--only to see Layla standing there. Proudly. Mockingly, in her own victorious pose with her heel perched atop Velora's chest.
It hurt.
It stung.
Her pride had been completely and utterly shattered...
Her body was completely broken.
And Layla stood there smugly rubbing her defeat in... especially with her last words.
...And there was nothing Velora could do...
But this pain... it... was... too much...
Her pride wasn't worth this...
"...Mercy..." She whimpered. "...Mercy... please... please don't hurt me... i-it's too much... I'll do whatever you say...! Please, I-I can't take the pain... I'll do anything!!" She let out a grunt--the pressure of Layla's heel upon her chest would likely leave a physical and mental imprint for... a long time.
...She had never lost before.
She had never even come close.
The face she had once been giggling at and enjoying the sight of defeat upon now became... a face that instilled fear into her.(( OOC: ))

While everything seemed to change to her favor, in her eyes, it really never changed much. Everything that happened wasn't her own streghth, this wasn't her at all. This power came from Luella, it didn't take a lot to figure that much out, so it didn't make her feel any better, her pride did not return, and her humiliation of before, when it was her under the foot of Velora, never really faded from her mind.
"Then do us all a favor, and get the hell out of here. " Mist made her way to stand beside her most hated enemy, kneeling down to grab his arm. She just wanted to ensure that Velora couldn't snatch him away. With her holding onto him, and the Reaper's current weakened state, it was likely she would forget about him now. Meanwhile, Layla moved her foot from Velora's chest, giving her the one chance to leave. "Disappear..and stay in your own realm."

Luella When Layla took her foot off her, Velora turned to her hands and knees, and began to crawl away--only to be harshly put down when her older yet smaller sister stomped down on the back of her head, forcing her face down into the dirt. "Fair is fair. Eat it." Luella twisted her shoe into the back of her head, before looking up to Layla, continuing to twist her shoe as she crossed her arms. "Do you always let people who beat and almost enslaved you run away with no repercussions? Doesn't seem like a very smart way to live to me." She said crossly. "You think she'll follow your orders? Stay in her realm and never come out to bother you again? You've put a target on yourself and everyone you love, you idiot. And don't give me any "I can handle myself" bullshit. If I hadn't been here you'd be her little sex slave right now." She sighed. "You're really strong, I'll give you that. But she's on a different level... her parents are a lot stronger than yours to start off. And if you were honestly just going to let her run, you're all brawn and no brain." Perhaps she was being too harsh, but... well, it was kinda true. Especially with how powerful Velora clearly was, was letting her escape really the smartest idea? "You want to rethink your judgement now?" (( OOC: ))

Layla turned toward Luella, her eyes narrowing ever so slightly. "And what do you suggest I do? Kill her? I may put out such threats, but I would rather avoid unnecessary killing if I can help it. She's frightened, maybe frightened enough to know not to bother us again. Giving her this chance to leave on her own, to her own realm is the test to see what she will do, and by her actions should she try anything against anyone again, the options of ending her become more open..We have no where to put someone like her, to prison will stop her, thus putting everyone in there in danger. " So it didn't seem like she would be changing her judgment so soon, right or wrong, this was the only way she saw it.

Luella""Frightened." Right. You think she might just be saying whatever she has to to get you to let her go? She's a Reaper, you know. She wants to kill your entire race, and enslave Serenitians and other powerful people like that boyfriend of yours. You think showing mercy to someone like her is a good idea?" Of course, Luella was a Reaper too, but clearly she wasn't exactly on the same side as Velora. "If you think letting her go is a good idea, you're an idiot. Though those related to you are pretty stupid too so I guess I shouldn't be-" suddenly, a thick smack could be heard, as Velora's massive shield swung around and smacked Luella in the skull. Blinking for a moment, she crumbled, falling to her back, stunned and disoriented."Ghhh..." Finally raising up, Velora wiped some of the dirt off her face. "Do you ever stop talking, big sister?" She moved over her, so that she was straddling her. "I'm low on energy after that... thorough beating I got. Give me some of yours, won't you?" Grabbing her by the hair, she pulled back to expose Luella's neck, wasting no time in sinking her teeth in and beginning to suck her blood...
And how delicious it was! This would restore her in no time. The blood of Ephraim and Krul mixed together was... amazing, really. She couldn't savor the taste of her own blood, but this way she didn't have to. She would have to restrain herself from taking too much.... then again, it didn't matter too much if she did, right?
They might notice too that, in all this confusion and battling, the Black Knight had slipped away..."Nnhh... s-stop..." Luella let out a small moan, though could do very little to actually fight her off.(( OOC: ))

Layla's head shook slightly. So...she didn't want to admit it, but, the girl was right. Wasn't she..."..Then you do something about her, you have the power to best match her own, do you not? You are a Reaper, too. " She only knew that due to their sisterly exchanges. But she was right, at the very least. Layla had some magic and strength to make her a well skilled fighter, but Luella on the other hand was a weapon in her own way with crazy powers she could never posses.
"Are you done with your insults? How do you even know who I'm related to? I've never told any-!! Watch out! " ....Well, that was a bit to late on her part, the shield kind of came out of no where, and quicker then even she could process in time to warn her! "Ugh..not again.." What to do now? Probably stop her from getting anymore blood to recharge on would be the key pointer here. She moved in....! ...Only to see Mist was a bit ahead of her own game, as she instead, grabbed a hold of the Reaper's hair! Oh, Mist might of been the one charged now. Pulling her head clean away from Luella's neck, she attempted to shove her off her, and the moment she was thrown to the ground, the pink light of her blade beam was already on course for the Reaper!

Luella"Don't have the stomach to kill?" Luella glanced at her. "Though I've never killed either... directly." She did help kill Krul, but it was starting to seem like her death may have been more of a show than anything...
"Reading a mind as simple as yours is child's play for perfection incarnate like mysel-" Aaaaand, smack. That kinda hurt her gloating a bit, didn't it? It was almost comedic."Aaaa! Ow, ow! Stop!" Velora shouted as she was pulled off her older sister by Mist. "Why is a tiny girl like you so strong?? It's frustrating! Aah!" She let out a grunt as she hit the ground. She quickly got to her feet... only to be struck by the pink blade beam and sent straight to her back. And without any armor, she really was feeling all these attacks. "Aa! Urrgh..." Her head turned a bit as she seemed damaged and disoriented.
This just was not her day!(( OOC: ))

    The sight all together suddenly, was..rather comedic, with Luella's confidant words to be so well crushed by her younger sister, then, for the smallest, and very well the weakest of them all to just grab a hold of Velora in such a way, it was quite embarrassing really! Velora's weakened form was quite the pathetic site. "What are we going to do with her? What CAN we do with her?!" An annoyed Mist questioned Luella, who..she hoped was still awake! She wasn't about to kill her, and she also wasn't about to get into the same argument Layla just had with Luella ether.
All she could do was...threaten her further? ..Well, whatever worked, she had to try, right? While Velora was still disoriented, Mist made her way into the girls direction where she was at the ground, her blade coming to rest just below her neck. "Make a move and....I will kill you!" ...That bluffing thing, it wasn't really her winning move here.

Ike "I fight for my friends." "...What in the world is going on here?" That would be a familiar voice to quite a few on the scene, as Ike stood there, Ragnell on his back, holding a... paper bag with groceries in it. Not a look often seen on the Radiant Hero. But Tifa needed some stuff, so he figured he'd make a quick run...
He hadn't expected to come across this, though. "...Mist, you aren't very good at bluffing." He said, taking a few steps forward. He reached for the Ragnell on his back..."WHOA, SCARY LARGE MAN WITH A BIG SWORD ALERT," Velora sprung to her feet. "HAHA BYE." And... suddenly she just dashed away, her giant shield floating along after her."...." Ike's hand dropped from the Ragnell's handle. He glanced around. "Tifa? Why are you- ...Hmm." He stepped closer to Layla, squinting into her eyes. "...You look an awful lot like someone I know." He said, his eyes returning to normal. "...Is there something you want to tell me?""Ehehehehe..." Luella couldn't help but grin. Layla was very close to being discovered, it seemed. "Well, I need to track her down, so bye~" And just like that, the small girl vanished away..."...Why can't anyone just walk in this world?" Ike sighed, turning to Layla again. "...Well?" He wasn't COMPLETELY certain, but he would be blind not to see the STRIKING similarities between her and Tifa. Not to mention she had his blue eye color... (( OoC: ))

"............" Layla's attention, was quick to snap to Ike's direction. It wasn't as if she didn't see him, many times in fact from afar, or passing by quick enough that he never got a good glance at her. But this?...She did not expect. The brief shock of her face kind of said that too! Luckily, though, his attention was more focused to his sister and the...badly beaten Reaper there. Of all of them, showing obvious signs of battle wear, were nothing compared to dear old little Velora. With broken armor, she was very...exposed. Thank the gods she had put some undergarments under that. But maybe a little more might of helped her a little more, for such situations like...this.
But before Mist could explain the situation, her captive Reaper suddenly had her own little outburst, an outburst of fear upon the sight of her brother...which may of been humorous to her had things not been so unpleasant moments before. Mist would be unable to stop her from making her grand escape, and all she could do was watch the half-naked girl run off with a shield seemingly chasing after her. Yeah, it really was a funny sight!
"It may be better if you didn't know.." Mist said with a heavy sigh. "First, He showed up.." Ike would know who, the unmentionable name she refused to say, and only ever refereed to as 'he'. "Then......" She paused, did she really need to get into the details of what went on between all of them. "Never mind, all that matters now is that he escaped...and is still out there...somewhere." It wasn't hard to see how angry she was on his escape.
Giving Mist a moment, she looked away. Who knew, maybe he would just completely forget about her if she was turned away! Cause that totally made her invisible. Well, it didn't. The moment he called her Tifa, she turned back out of some silly reflex. "...! " When she turned to him, he was all that much closer to her now, which made her take a step back! "....." She..just..smiled at him. How did she not have a plan for this in all the months she had been here?! It wasn't that hard to make up some lie, was it? Or maybe it was, the guilt would only pour in later on had she straight up lied to him, he didn't deserve that. "Is there...something I want to tell you..? ..." She forgot one small detail, a lot of people had said she sounded a LOT like Tifa, too. "..I think maybe you don't need to know just yet..I'm just...a girl..walking the city..." Well, it wasn't lying, at least!

Justus Wolve"I can't rest until I've realized my dream..." Right as Layla finished her first words to Ike, footsteps would be heard from near the small group. "Uh..." s**t. "Doctor, you need to come quick. The, uh... patient is... showing signs of recovery.""Doctor huh." Ike didn't exactly sound convinced. "And what patient is this?""And what patient is this," Justus repeated in his head in a very unflattering, mocking voice. "Haven't you ever heard of... doctor-patient confidentiality? Can't discuss those kinds of things." He picked at his ear a bit, coughing."You don't look like any doctor I've ever seen. How old are you?""I am... a nurse, actually. You have a problem with male nurses? Smh what a close-minded fellow you are.If I had a hat I would not tip it at you, good sir.""I am not "sir," and you are not a nurse. Nor is she a doctor. I've been around enough to know when I'm being lied to."".....What the ******** is that??" Justus pointed upwards past where Ike was standing."......" Ike did not look."Well that was my last idea." He pulled out a small grey object, throwing it down to the ground. ......It just tattered on the ground and rolled around a bit. "................." He sighed. "Well, it was supposed to be... a smoke bomb. You know, like... suddenly went up in smoke, and then, uh, we would be gone when it cleared, and you'd be in awe of how cool.... you know what? Never mind." His plans somehow were falling apart. "Anyway, I'm still going with the doctor thing. Come on, doctor. We have s**t to do." Very smooth. (( OOC: ))
