Encke wasn't necessarily paying attention to what his attack managed to do or if it fully landed. The tertiary, brighter aura did catch his attention, and he heard someone else shouting an attack, and it came as a relief, but he wasn't really processing that relief fully, eyes on the page. The general's words weren't really processing either, hollow sounds that banged around in his head like background noise in a club might. But he heard the purple page--Saturn, his brain provided--crack out a Don't and he heard the pain in her voice, and his brain dully reminded him that of course there was pain había un brazo en el suelo-- Without taking a moment to process what he was doing, he murmured a, "Hang on," and scooped the injured knight off the ground. His brain questioned as he ran if he was supposed to pick up the arm, and he might have taken a second to bend down a bit and scoop it up, holding it and her somewhat awkwardly as he attempted to put a larger distance between himself and the familiar scythe-wielding general as quickly as his legs would carry him. Thankfully, he was assisted by the fact that he ran as a hobby, occasionally even competitively, adrenaline, and the fact he was powered, and his legs carried him fairly quickly. His eyes flickered up to the eternal senshi, and he decided to head in a slightly different direction to perhaps split the general's attentions. He'd swing back towards her in a minute.

The arrow landed and did far more than Ida had any right to expect it to, blowing Labyrinthite back and off balance. She'd almost expected him to brush it aside like an annoying fly... but she also knew some of her fear of him was more built up in her mind than based in reality.
He's not a boogeyman. He's a real man, even with chaos at his command. I'm as strong as he is... The thought felt hollow, but she clung to it. She didn't have the luxury of giving into fear right this moment.
A bit of purple and white flashed out and Ida saw a man with red hair sweep up an injured knight. He felt like a senshi, but with the blood everywhere, it was hard to say at a glance what planet the page came from. A worrying amount of blood... but they couldn't deal with that here. The bigger threat was their opponent, and Ida rushed to drop down between him and the pair, landing hard in her boots and skirts.
The eternal senshi drew herself up with every bit of bravado she had and lifted her arms, threatening another blast with her arrows.
"Leave." She snapped, trying to put enough threat into her voice to convince them both she was serious. "You're out numbered."
Not by much, but hopefully... Did the risk outweigh the reward for him?

One of them was running, taking his toy with them and barely glancing back. It left a white-hot anger curling in his chest as he glowered, the threads of thinly veiled control beginning to unravel and his movements became more and more erratic.
For Ida, it might have seemed new, for the others who did not know him, it was hard to say but there was a shift to something wilder, feral and his eyes flashed with anger and hunger and if he were an animal he might've howled or roared to express himself.
Instead, he laughed.
It was hollow and manic and he focused his attention on Ida. "Outnumbered? One of you will bleed out if left unattended and the other, too distracted on keeping the girl alive." He advanced on her, fingers flexing on the bone staff of his scythe. "It's just you and I, canary." His grin split wider still. "Do you think you can stop me?"

There was --
She was --
She was getting blood all over his fuku. It was rude. Babel blinked dazed eyes, body limp, and didn't know how much time she had just lost; still, she squeezed the bead hard in her hand, and when the ride smoothed out for a second she tried to use her leverage to throw it at the ground as hard as she could, because she was dying, probably - no, not probably. She was dying. And she needed -- just a few more minutes, before it got this bad, enough time to get to the closest hospital - she took a half-breath and threw it at the ground, because there was no time to pass it to Encke and explain it, even if it would be efficient - there was no time at all.
It brought the pain back, bright as ever, because it had faded because she was - she didn't want to think about it -- but the smoke surrounded Babel, and she had more time, no matter how little any of this time was worth anymore.
(When the hospital was in sight, so so close, she let Babel drop away and gritted her teeth against the agony that Sunny seamlessly inherited. It was still something impossible to explain, but she wasn't in a state to explain, anyways -- explaining meant she would have to understand.
Understanding this? It hurt too much, tonight.)Quote: Pearlescent Bead -A seemingly normal looking pearl that is always cool to the touch. It can be found discarded on Homeworlds, Wonders, Mirrorspace, and the Dark Kingdom. To use this item, a character must throw it hard at the ground. The pearl will not break, but upon impact will explode into a painless, odorless, pearly white smoke at the character's feet. This smoke has the ability to restore all energy immediately. It can fully restore all senshi magic, all knight magic, of all Negaverse abilities, except for fourth stage magic. It can be used to revive all drained energy and is even strong enough to revive someone from death through magical defibrillation. While it won’t heal injuries, it will give someone enough energy to stay alive for a bit longer. The effects will only work on the one person the smoke surrounds and touches. The smoke cannot be blow away from the person it surrounds. After the smoke clears, the bead can be kept as a memento. Whimsical Blue i'm fine w/ a fin here but any of you are welcome to post to tie up your end of the thread! ty all
