Persephone had to admit to having a disgusting amount of fun with this battle. Her anger had long ago bled out, and instead she was simply attacking, dodging, and practically skipping around. She came across a rather large branch and grinned, scooping it up and aiming carefully, then hurling the branch at the Queen. She was going to take this witch down!
Sailor Persephone HP: 24
Tantalus knew he was struggling. He was exhausted, and definitely scared, and the longer the battle dragged the more afraid he got. He turned to throw a punch at a shade, and then, suddenly, the Queen's attack struck him. "Oh," he said quietly, and then he crumpled, falling to the ground.
Sailor Tantalus HP: 0
Natron knew he wasn't going to be able to hang on through many more assaults, so he dodged and skipped out of the way of both the Queen's latest attacks. He also took his attention away from Des, long enough to elbow one of the shades.
Captain Natron HP: 11
Penthesilea closed her eyes and took a breat.h Both the latest attacks managed to soar by her, and she knew, now, that it was time to show the Queen what War really was. She folded her hands in front of her, almost as if she was praying.
"Penthesilea Call to Arms!" She shouted, and then she reached out, grasping the red longsword, and launched her magic at the Queen herself.
Sailor Penthesilea HP: 40
Penthesilea Call to Arms!
Penthesilea folds her hands in front of her as if she were praying and closes her eyes, speaking the name of the attack. Upon the last word, she opens her eyes and reaches out, and a longsword made of red energy appears in her hand. She slashes it towards one target within six feet of her and red energy flies from the blade towards the target. The force with which it strikes depends on how long the battle has been going on, from a slight smack to enough to knock someone off their feet or knock the wind out of them. Penthesilea can use this attack twice per battle.
Amytis was not having an easy time. The Dark Mirror flailed when the pixie dust attack sank into her skin, sending her flying off the ground. "Waah! Help!" She pleaded, kicking desperately at a shade whose hand wrapped around her ankle.
And then she saw Tantalus crumple, and she screamed again, because oh god, no, please.
Des grinned stupidily when the mace smacked the queen right in the stomach. "I was aiming for her head..." He mumbled.
He somehow didn't see the first attack, whether he was too busy with a shade or he just simply didn't notice it was up for debate. That's not to say however, that he didn't feel it. Because he did.
And it hurt.
He staggered, his vision blurring as he pulled his last knife free from his boot. He narrowed his eyes and hoped he was aiming at the right thing, the queen, before sending the blade flying straight at her. The second attack missed him as he had shuffled out of the way. Blinking a few more times he reached out and ended up grabbing a fist full of Natron's jacket. "...Hey Grace..." Des mumbled, however, instead of finishing his statement, the purple haired boy dropped to the ground without warning.
True to his nature, with in a second, Damocles had come to Amytis' rescue and finished off what was left of the shade. "Are you alright?" He asked, but was cut off when she screamed. Damocles turned and followed her gaze to find a crumpled Tantalus laying on the ground and the blonde could swear that he felt his heart stop.
No
He paled and he shuffled over, having to stop momentarily when he was smacked with an attack and lost control of gravity this time, before he was able to scoop the senshi up off the ground. "Tantalus?" He called gently. Making his way back over to Amytis, he nodded at a near by tree. "Come on." He mouthed, over all the noise. They could use it as a defense. Damocles could safely rest Tantalus against it, and both he and Amytis would have something to hide behind if the need arose.
Natron felt the tug on his jacket and turned just in time to see Des fall. "Des!" He yelled his boyfriend's name in a panic, sinking down and scooping him up into his arms protectively. He was shaking a little - no, rather, a lot. He'd intended to keep him safe, and yet which of them was unconscious?

Amytis flapped and flailed, finally getting her limbs under control enough to kick over to where Damocles was and help him carry Tantalus back behind the tree.
"I'm fine," she said, and then she looked over at the unconscious brunet. "I-is he gonna be okay?" Sure, she'd just met them, but he was one of her Court and it was pretty obvious Damocles cared about him a lot.

Having nothing but her own hands and feet to fight with had put Juno at a disadvantage, and her own brash 'never say die' style had further sealed her fate. Even as she was hit again and again by nearly every attack the Queen threw Juno pushed forward, trying to get close enough to land a punch or well placed kick.
But in the end even her athletic and gymnastic prowness could not hold up against an opponent so much more powerful then she could ever hope to be. The final blow took her by the shoulder, sending her flying backwards and to the ground. She was alive still, simply unconcious, for now at least. Hopefully the chaos of the battle would keep anyone from noticing the helpless body and she'd wake up afterwards and drag/limp herself home.

Bimini - 39 - 7 - 15 = 17 (is floating) ))
So far his strategy had been working. Being so far back he'd managed to miss a large number of the very scary attacks that were being thrown out. But it didn't mean he'd went completely unscathed. Cringing as he rubbed his injured arm he hadn't even noticed he'd been hit by dust until suddenly his bare feet could no longer feel the cold dampness of the grass beneath him.
Floating was disorienting, so much so that Bimini tipped forward, practically getting tangled up in the folds and ribbons of his uniform. And his water tipped out uselessly onto the ground.
She was getting tired, injuries and fatigue cracking the royal stance and aire she had until now been trying hard to keep up. She physically slouched forward as another slew of attacks pelted her and an unholy scream echoed through the night loud enough to make some reach for their ears.
After biding her time all these years.. after all the planning... after all the great success of her fairies over the past week... how could she possibly be losing? How could these annoying creatures be stronger than she was!? She was a Queen! She was the Queen. They would not stop her so easily, not when this planet was just within her reach.
With great effort the Queen lifted her arms above her head, dark orbs growing within her palms. They pulsed and grew, until suddenly streams of light streamed from them, targeting each and every one of her minions. Some went quietly, seemingly unaware, while other struggled as their life force was siphoned from them. It took mere seconds for them all to be drained, each dissipating into nothingness, and in the end all that remained was the Queen, standing tall once more. Rejuvenated. Larger. The determination in her eyes burned like a fire as her voice boomed.
"I will not allow the lives of my minions to be in vain. Once the Earth is mine I will use your bones and blood to build a new army!"
With her new found energy the Queen unleashed not one, but two of her powers. Perhaps as they attempted to dodge the tidal waves of water they wouldn't notice the beams of searing light hidden right behind them.
Queen Finsternis HP: 500
((Tidal Wave: Power from the moon. AOE made of spectral water which blankets an area around Finsternis and spreads outward.
Everyone has to roll a 100 sided die to find out if they get hit and how much they get hurt. 98-100 - They're hit dead on, full damage 86-97 - take 75% of the damage roll (rounded up if above .5) 70-85 - take 50% of the damage roll (rounded up) 41-69 - take 25% of the damage roll (rounded up) 1 - 40 - You're far enough away you manage to not get hit by the water
EXAMPLE: Kaori rolls a 10! Sailor A rolls 52 - they take 3 damage Nega B rolls 89 - they take 8 damage, ouch!
Heat Ray: Power from the sun. Multi-target beam of heat and light!
Every must roll a 100 sided die to determine if you character has been hit. If you roll an even the heat ray has missed, but if you roll an odd you have been hit. Subtract Finsternis roll from your HP.
You take damage from both of the attacks possibly. That means you could lose up to 20 hp this round, roll low!!
Nothing impedes your rolls (other then 0 HP) this round so everyone may roll a 20d die!))
