Gatz simply watched as Dante took off with Lilith, only giving him a slight nod of agreement as he evacuated the girl. It seemed like the best choice, knowing the man's closeness to the succubus, and that probably had some level of protection as a colaberator with Roan. Gatz waited a few seconds as the malestorm of energy began to whip through the building, watching the tendrails of eletricity coil around his form with mild interest.
"Tingly," he remarked with a slight grin.
At this point the chunk of rock and plaster Rio had (hopefully) inadvertantly hurled at him came crashing into the bedroom, headed straight for him. Rather than move out of the way, however, he simply held out a hand as if to stop the projectile. The large hunk of stone hit his palm as Gatz made a sharp twisting motion with his wrist, redirecting the thing's momentum on impact and sending it flying off on a different course. The pheonix hovering above the entity suddenly had a bit of fun headed its way.

*Straightening slowly, Roan smirked and looked over at Quint*
Any questions? Shouldnt have called me out Quint... betrayer... spy... lurk... LORDKIN. Play with Ice? I think not. You called ME out to play, so I wholeheartedly invite you to try and stop me... or shall I fry your dear little sister? Or prehaps the cute little succubus who doesnt quite know how to deal with me?
*Her arm snapped up and out, into a curled shape, like a hawker waiting for his bird to return, and indeed Roan did. The Phoenix screamed in brief defiance, the heat radiating off it enough to melt the stone, the legendary bird diving THROUGH the molten rock to returnt o Roan, its brilliant plummage enhanced by twin tails, which for some reason made Roan laugh. With Phoenix settled on her arm, she whistled shrilly and let her sword show on her back, strapped neatly betwixt her wings*
Two houses levelled in a day. Shall we increase the number?

... I worry sometimes. Do TRY to restrain yourself Vengeance.
*Ice mock shook his head, then smiled at the figure Vengeance cut, her calculating smile too familiar to him, though the face he best liked that smiel upon was of course the DeSeer heir, Corbin. For a second, he looked lustful, then it was gone as he causally deflected flying debris and looked at Quint*
You were Corbins trial play thing. You think yourself good enough to endure my skills? Hands grafted to your arse is the least of your worries with me, especially after antagonising my partner here.... tell me, Quint, have you ever been raped?
*His smile was sweet and serene... and for that, much much much madder than any of Roan's ever could be*

"--I suppose you'd have to ask his other mistress about that," Gatz said casually, stepping out of the bedroom. "Succubi aren't especially noted for playing nice, but Morrigan is a bit more civil than some I've had the pleasure of meeting." He turned to Roan/Vengeance and sighed, shaking his head.
"Yes, yes, do knock down a few more buildings while you're up and about. It's not like it has been down a hundred-thousand times before. And much like battering around less-than loyal underlings still linked with you, it requires minimal effort at best." The entity shrugged helplessly. "I give you a two out of ten, both for abysmal unoriginality and a lack of realistic planning skills."
Standing almost in the dead center of the destruction, something odd appeared to be happening to Gatz. Little wisps of vapor and shadow seemed to continually waft out of the rubble and cling to him, fading away on contact. Every time this happened his outter apperance seemed to fuzz over ever so slightly, coming back into focus half a second later.
*Sigh*... It's always such a pain to feed and maintain my image at the same time, he thought glumly. But that last display left so much chaos in its wake... Heck, I bet even Quint has noticed something by now.

His sister still encased in a protective box, Quint looked up to Roan, spotting a sword he didn't know she had. He shook his head negatively, in response to Roan. Though unfelt by his being, his body had absorbed a large part of the chaotic energy Gatz released, muscles tightening, his vision focused down to the specks of gravel that still fell. His attitude also changed, to one that was anxious. Quint thought that hasty feeling was his own emotion..
I don't see my sister, nor Morrigan standing here now, so leave them be. I'm the one who wants you, I'm the one that accepts your invitation!
To him, the slippery voice of Ice's wasn't as threatening as it used to be, the question of rape laughed at. No I haven't, and I'll never know how good I am, unless you shut your yap and we get down! Inside the globes for eyes, his corneas frittered between the two, wanting either to act. He knew that fighting without a weapon was impossible with those two, but he raised his fists in a classic grappler stance anyway, spirit growling to feel a person's face on his fist. It had been so long, Quint couldn't tell if he was fighting for someone, or to refuel his own desire.

It all happened in a flash, something Sierra had expected, but underestimated the un-dead demon's power, the house fried, soon leveled, she only protected by a case that her brother had provided. Chaos was a lot like radiation, able to seep through many things, Sierra also receiving a decent dose of the unknown energy. This sent her into a sort of craze, she now pounding at the box repeatedly, suddenly not at all content with her safe zone. Morrigan's bats, after gaging the situation, found that she wasn't in immediate danger, and after getting the quick okay from Quint, melted away they did, Sierra shielding her eyes from the now natural sunlight, house around both woman and shifters demolished.
Her own exclamations probably wouldn't help the situation at hand, but the shared look between brother and sister told that she likely didn't care.
"What in the ******** happened here, and who is that?!" She yelled, pointing at Ice with her middle finger. If this was intentional, only she knew.

"Something I'd like to know myself."
Morrigan descended into what was left of Quint's living space. "Roan," she asked, "Would you care to explain what has happened here, and what's going on now?!"

*Ice rolled his head on his neck... and let his gaze fall on Quint's sister*
Hmm. Who? Or what? Who is really not that useful here. Im called Ice, but it isnt my birth name, Im titled Deciet, but thats my job description. WHAT I am is a bit ambiguous too though.... Vengeance? Your thoughts?
*Of course, Ice was one of the biggest conundrums going - ethereally beautiful when he chose, and ALWAYS thus in his face, he was nevertheless made absolutely monstrous by other aspects of his form. Where high cheek bones and smooth skin about his face gave him the appearance of an angel, the weird furred goat like legs and hooves made him demonic. Where pale blue carefully crafted hair and delicate ornamented wings perfected his facial features, his Alien-esque rattling tail with its wicked barb only hinted at death. His pink eyes and chosen skin markings made his beauty alien, and he didnt care. He could look however he chose, stunningly beautiful, painfully horrific, but he liked this half form best of all. It had been known to give people headaches.*

Gatz, I wasnt planning on impressing YOU. You're a chaos entity, its just not worth BOTHERING.
*she looked at Morrigan as she returned and smiled*
Oh, you're back. I got real bored and Quints been slowly pushing my buttons all DAY. Decided to do something about it. Besides.. I kinda had a rather large amount of static going spare and felt like working it off. I can put some effort in if you'd prefer...
*She looked innocently at Ice, then grinned. Technically, he was her boss and HAD told her to restrain herself but... hadnt that been the whole reason Rake had come here in the first place? It was far from her usual responsibilities and the sects wars. Then the faun spoke again and she laughed*
My thoughts? You're a goddamn monster who needs to get his sticky paws off my son and stop ******** with my family. You and Bailey arent exactly easy to classify.
*She stroked Phoenix and looked at Quint with a sigh*
If you really wish to dance Quint, then so be it.
*Her wings beat heavily, lifting her from the ground as Phoenix tore up into the air, screeching. Changes rippled over her, the sky darkening until heavy fat drops of rain started pelting those below. Thunder rolled over the heavens as Roan tilted her head up, embracing it, feeling Take run through her body as she drew her sword, the cycle system revolving all about her as she unlocked her skills and held each close, ready to use it. Corbin's Dark Armageddon lingered just past her finger tips and she seriously thought of starting with that and making this quick.... as the rain fell, each drop became charged with electric, making every one sting with its own power, the only real light left in the sky coming from the flickers of lightning teasing the bottom of the clouds, waiting to be called down to strike*

In a brief moment of sarcasm, Quint rose his hand up to his face, palming the majority. Again with the lightning. Stinging slightly, the rain felt almost refreshing compared to the direct charge, and as Morrigan's bats rejoined Quint, he rose to meet this woman. Boosters going half power, he stared at Roan, a rather large droplet causing an arm to twitch. With storms rolling overhead, Quint closed his eyes. Here, he'd be able to react to a blow or strike, but only instantly after it hit him. Raising his arms outwards now, he opened his hands, also spreading his legs to match his arms' pose.
I'd advise to keep the fireworks to a minimum this time. Quint warned, his mouth stoned into a flat grin, That lightning isn't too strong anymore, and every time I'm hit with it, there's a smaller chance it'll even cause a flinch. At least he told the truth. Quint called it his "Hit me once, pain for me. Hit me twice, less sting there will be." technique. After being struck with an attack, his body reactively rose its pain tolerance, and his mind would prep his body for the next blow, making each concurrent strike easier to take. Even now, each rain drop shocked less and less, to the point where it felt like 'real' rain.

"Why are you even here then, Ice?" Sierra asked roughly, gritting her teeth to keep from yelling, breathing through those tight teeth. "If that's to take something from by brother, think I overheard 'rape', then you're in for it, liar!" She called Ice that through his own description of himself, Deceit. Sharing the same blood as her brother, hers raged equally, now finding a new target after turning a head to her shoulder in Morrigan.
"And what are you doing standing there!?" She clenched her fist, the air around it swirling with a haze, this power of a type many couldn't have seen before. "Either step in, or step aside."
Back to Ice. "You. I hope you're the type to overlook gender in a fight!" Quickly, the stored energy in her hand was pointed at Ice, and quickly after was released, a stream of ice came from her palm, freezing the dainty demon in place. After, her other hand rose skyward, and from the clouds a large fiery sword pierced through, rapidly finding its way to Ice's face.

Morrigan quickly formed a large black hand from one of her wings, stretching it out to grab the flaming sword from out of the air. The hand took the sword, tossed it aside, and then shoved the girl away. Morrigan quickly landed and took her place.
"Well well well, just who are you? Ice, I believe you called yourself?" Morrigan asked, displaying a faux sense of attraction to the being. She wasn't exactly charmed herself, and she knew that it could see right though her display, but she couldn't help it. It was her nature.
"Listen, I've been dying for a worthy one on one fight for quite some time. As this seems quite the opportune time for one, I'd like to shred you to ribbons... if only you let me. How about it, darling?"

Rioushu walked into what was left of the living room, rubbing the debris off of his shoulders as he looked around the room, counting the combatants. He saw Morrigan, Ice, Sierra, Quint, Roan, and Gatz. "Huh, four to two, I guess you guys have enough of an advantage, though if the battle goes for the worse, I suppose I'll fill in for whoever falls out." Rioushu assured, looking for a suitable rock to sit on. He was about to rest his legs when he turned back to Roan and shook his head. "I wouldn't suggest using anything too powerful around here, you might just kill some allies of yours." Rioushu said, while he knew that Ice would probably be able to avoid Roan's attack, he would make sure that Ice stayed right in place, though he'd have to do something smarter than freeze a guy name Ice.
