Robert wasn't ready to be buried six feet under, just yet. So when Jerry shot the dog off of him, Robert rose his batleth up over his head, his eyes slit with hatred.
Sophie tilted her head. Stay safe? Was that even possible at this point? Could she ever be safe so long as she was here. She shook her head. No, she couldn't. While Xiu said she'd do her best to defend her that was all she could do and would it be enough if both of them were attacked at the same time? Or if they were surrounded? The undead ghoul wasn't about to let Xiu sacrifice herself just because Sophie couldn't keep her nose out of other creeple's business. If, Jack forbid, the worst thing happened then Sophie would just have to deal with it. Suck it up. Toughen up.
Turning to Xiu, Sophie gave a soft smile. "If you have to go, go. I'll be fine. I'll find somewhere to hide if it'll make you feel better." Where she could hide was one thing; whether she would stay hidden was another. If she thought for one second she could be useful to someone - stranger or friend alike - the ghoul would be out there in an instant. But right now it was likely she would get in the way. Most of the students in years above her would likely try to protect her which would distract them from their battle.. The ghoul sighed. She really needed to start listening to her brother.

SHEHK IS HEALING SELF
"Hard to forget who left this thing on my back." she replied, the wolf jerking away from him and shaking her body out before crunching down on the charm she wore around her neck to utilize it. Two hunters on one little puppy?
She knew how quickly that got nasty, and she wasn't about ready to go down. In fact, after crunching down on the charm she felt a lot better for what it was worth. Enough to kill two hunters? Not quite that strong, but she'd keep it up while she could, at least.
"Awww, kissing each other's boo-boos better, awwwwww..." There was something really sickening about hearing the puppy-talk voice coming from... a dog....

She was getting farther and farther from her friends. She could hear Belladonna's voice calling out, and she briefly looked back to see the ghoul offering heals, but that moment cost her - when she turned back to Herryk again, he'd moved just far enough to make her heart seizure with fear of losing sight of him. She started to push and stumble her way through, keeping just far enough that he would never know she was there, but never so far that she couldn't see him.
This was madness. She saw Shun and Xiu out of the corner of her eye, and longed to run to them, help them fight and stay safe. But Herryk kept moving, stopping only to stare at a dying body once in a while.
Did he regret all of this death? Was that why he wasn't fighting, anymore? Maybe he regretted everything he'd done. Maybe he was trying to find himself again.
The battlefield was a terrible place to look.
Freya couldn't see Mort or Sharra anymore. The thought chilled her - no one would protect her if she was attacked. Even though she could see still the black shadow shifting ahead of her, she knew she was completely, and utterly, alone.
Kouki hissed in approval as the Mist trainee attacked extremely well, goaded on by - Sasha? Was that Sasha? Madison had never met the Life Intermediate personally, though she'd heard all the reports... and all the rumors. Still, if she could hit like that Madison was ready to forgive her just about anything. Not that s**t mattered now-
"Not the time," Madison shot back at Leon, though there was a wry grin on her face. She wasn't the kind to mingle violence and sex, and now was definitely time for one and not the other.
Two targets - which one- but the puppy was pretty damn pissy, and looking way too healthy all of a sudden- "Thanks!" she shouted at Sasha, then lunged at the puppy, one blade connecting in a nice, solid blow.

The blow was viscous, a horrible crack that came with the weapon hitting his chest that had the pup seeing stars. "You suck, meat puppet."

"You're welcome." leon said back kindly and gave the mutt a wave. "The best gift you'll ever have this year." he continued after a pause. "Wait no. i can give you a matching wound if you like. I insist, its the season of giving."
any chance at a exhibition romp was quickly shattered and left the male with a pout on his face. "Then i hope the times soon, maybe after we skin this thing and add a new rug to your floor?" he offered, a hopeful glance in Madison's direction.
there had to be a way for them to preserve FEAR made pelts. they had the life labs, they have the technology.
It all had to start with a fresh sample and he had to get it fast. the female dog looked lke she was already in her second wind, he began to hack at the beast's hide, trying to shear away as much flesh as he could.

Damage: 11 Appearance A rugged brunette hunter that wields a chainsaw and has a bristly demeanor, approach with caution.
Ying pulled back on her drawstring once more, losing interest in the sun hunter she'd been aiming at, and instead going for a pinkish hunter. The hunter reminded Ying strangely of a flower blossom, but it was no weight on her conscious.

Xiu still looked hesitant, reaching out to take Sophie's hand. "I...I can't leave you alone though. Even if you hide, you could be easily found by wandering Hunters. At the very least, I want to leave you with someon--"
She suddenly cut herself off, her grip on the ghoul's hand growing limp as it slid past her to fall on a battle in the distance. Two hunters were ganging up on a very familiar--and very injured--canine boil. When the larger of the two Hunters lifted their weapon, Xiu dropped Sophie's hand, instinctively lunging forward as her whole tail bristled.
But she was too slow. The batleth came down, and Demi went crumpling to the ground. There was a beat of shocked silence, and then something in the ghoul snapped.
Suddenly, all she could see was red.
The gem on her necklace began to glow as her mind began to cloud, the scene in front of her flickering between Demi's body lying between the two hunters to a soldier--her soldier--in red lying lifelessly on the ground. At once, a rush of anger filled her body, and with it, she felt a sudden burst of power course through her, her eyes growing frenzied. How dare they attack her people? Her kingdom? Her gaze focused on one of the enemies in particular--one of the pair who stood over one of her soldier's body--and her gaze suddenly darkened.
As he was nearby, she turned to Shun, momentarily pulling out of the vision before the necklace dragged her back in. That was...her soldier. A knight. "You!" She barked, "You're to watch over her!" It was not the usual request, but an order as she gestured towards Sophie. Without waiting for a reply--because really, who would honestly dare go against her word?--she strode forward and threw herself at the smaller of the two men, knocking him to the ground.
And then the next thing she knew, she was sitting on top of him, straddling his chest with her hands resting on his shoulders. Leaning forward, her lips curved into a relaxed smirk as she hissed at him. "You and your friend fight with such confidence, such pride, as if there is something to be proud about when the two of you corner one of mine," Slowly, her hands slid up, until they rested on his neck, her expression softening, almost sympathetic if not for the look in her eyes. In her mind, she could hear the excited whispers of power, urging her onwards. "Poor things. Do you only feel strong when you aren't fighting alone? When you have someone else to protect you, to fight for you? I wouldn't know what it's like--what it's like to be so weak."
After all, she was the King. There was no one here stronger than she was.
Her expression suddenly became livid as her fingers suddenly tightened around his neck, the air of malice around her thickening as her small hands squeezed with more power than someone her size should have possessed. She let out a bitter laugh, her nails biting into his skin. "But now let's see how you like it, hmmmm?"

Another hunter down, and Alexander could feel the blood from wounds he had torn open himself dripping from his hands. His breathing was ragged and deep, each inhalation of air used solely for him to absorb the scent of blood and meat, of death on the battlefield. This hunter was still alive, if only just barely, and it took everything he had in him not to fall upon her and take what little life force she had left with his teeth.
But no, he couldn't. He had to be better then the stereotype, no matter how difficult that may be. He staggered back from the body lying on the floor, and forced his breathing to slow and then stop all together. His eye which was moments before wild and crazed began to narrow as he turned, searching for Xiu and Sophie. More hunters had arrived, the reinforcements charging in with yells and the clashing of weapons against the horsemen who fought back. All he could see everywhere were white coats and horsemen. None of his friends.
He shambled away from the body, seeking out desperately for anybody he might consider his friend. There had been that blue tailed kitsune boil with him for a time, but he had quickly disappeared into the crowd.
Alexander was alone, and still fighting to keep control of his instincts, because no matter how much he tried to hold back what he had inside of him, he could not contain the sheer volume of rage that the harbored towards hunters for long. But attacking them on his own would be foolish. He needed his friends, to be in the company and comfort of his horde.
There. There was Mort, and Belladonna! He could have sighed in relief as he stumbled over towards them, the blood on his clothes and hands speaking volumes about what he'd been up to.
"Have you seen Sophie? Or Xiu?" His first words, blurted out, desperate. He looked pained, as though it actually hurt to keep himself under such rigid control under these circumstances. Again he had to be glad that at least Yin wasn't here. At least the weremantis was back at the school, safe from what was happening, away from the hunters that would try to control him.
Once he finally stopped in front of them, he could feel just how beat up he actually was. From getting struck over and over again with a shield, then a sickle, and finally a blade. He took a moment to wrap his hand around his Fear shard and absorb the Fear that he had collected, to restore his shield.

SHEHK IS ATTACKINGBEING MAIMED BY LEON "Now why would I want a matching one when the first one has such symmetry" she snorted back until Madison drove a blade into her, snarling and looking half-ready to reel around onto her until that blasted chainsaw came back.
She reeled onto it instead, attempting to snare it in her mouth -
SNAPWRRSNAPYELP
The pricolici stepped back with a very obvious new wound, blood seeping from her mouth as her jaw hung half-lip, the skin and muscles that had previously been holding it together a ragged mess. That Glasgow 'esque' smile she'd used earlier was now a quite literal thing. At least sort of.
If nothing else, she'd been properly shut up.

"Got it." He told Jerry, in no way second guessing any commands. Turning, he moved to Robert's side. "Seems they want a piece of you." He said, looking around as a few horsemen were eyeing Robert like a fresh cut of meat. It was that same primal fear you had when looking at a group of junkyard dogs that got out of their fence.
Well, here was hoping he could keep Robert alive.

Something suddenly stung at Madison's shoulder, and she flinched to the side with a curse. That felt like it had been an arrow, maybe a thrown dagger - but she had no time or inclination to pick out a distant assassin in this brawl. Not yet.
Not with a tempting target right there. "Maybe," Madison told Leon; hell, kicking a** was sexy. In a way.
The wound was obvious. And Madison was definitely not above hitting weak points. She turned and drove Kouki right at the silver wolf's already mangled face, turning so that the flat of the blade impacted, rather than the edge. Mmm, blunt force trauma...

That Maybe sounded like a yes to Leon. Nid didn't understand why the meathead was mentally whooping in his space and growled for the blockhead to calm down or whatever.
While it wasn't what he expected for the dog to have a moment and try to bite off the blade of the saw. the sounds and feeling that came afterward were grotesque. just like that, the jaw that mocked them was no more.
being one that knew the horrors that came with an unhinged jaw, he was sympathetic to its plight. Except her did seem more gruesome to say the least. "come on, speak girl, speak."
rubbing salt in the wound, its what madison and he did best as he poked at its side gently with the blade.
Nid was bitching over how the meat was spoiled. never pleased with any meal it got.

Mort watched Freya continue to move forward with a falling feeling in his Core, a descent to despair he wished he didn't have to visit: Herryk was her target. He knew it was only going to be a horrible outcome from their mingling, so he had to think fast.
Bells pressing into him was a welcome distraction, however, and he gave a small sigh and draped an arm around her, glad that whatever it was that had been tweaking her before wasn't as big a problem; he had been craving that warm touch ever since the obviously dark nature of this meeting had been revealed. And while his fingers did brush against her ribboned arm and felt something strange protruding thereafter, he didn't question it - now wasn't the time. "Just follow me. Will be okay," he murmured, shambling forward with her to meet Alex.
...Who looked worse for wear. "Use Medea's power, need t'be full strength for this," he told his bro right off the bat before scanning the scene quickly to answer his question. "Mrrr. Xiu's -" Off kicking some hunter's a**, though with unnatural speed and power; it was almost frightening. Tracing the baku's path of destruction backwards led him to Sophie, upon which he motioned the group towards her and moved forward once more.
"Stay with us," he said to her in passing, sliding his arm off the witch. "Big fight. Lots've enemies here, all stronger. Alex, defend. Bells, heal n' use spells from afar if need. All've you, eyes up, ears alert, n' remember candy canes if need t'heal more. Groups always attract attention, so loathe to leave. But won't be long, just . . . n-need t'get Freya n' Herryk out of mess too." This was punctuated by a knuckle cracking.
Mort didn't care if his "orders" were followed or not afterwards. He simply strode away, past the stumbling valkyrie ahead on the path (whom he gave only a light touch on the shoulder, a gesture to say she didn't have to keep going if she couldn't bring herself to), and onward towards the dark figure of what used to be his friend.
