"They're not that hard to run in." She was rather certain that his shoes were more difficult to run in than her own and would likely question him about it at some other time when they weren't facing a situation quite like this. For now, she needed to keep focused on the bird in order to minimize whatever damage she would need to take in order to activate her powers.
It seemed, though, that the chicken youma was going to make things easy on her... Or, at least a little bit easier. Its red eyes gleamed as they locked on her, feathered arms flapping once, twice in absence of the sheers they had been holding... And then it flapped them in her general direction, sending a wave of razor-sharp feathers shooting at her.
Corvus managed a squawk of her own (no where near as impressive as the chicken's had been) as she began the dance of dodging before finally holding still so that the last wave could hit her, nicking her fuku, shredding bits of pretty fabric, cutting the soft, exposed skin of her upper arms and sending her flying back into a pile of snow with a groan.

He was convinced, whatever they were, his cousins powers were the -worst powers ever-. He winced as Corvus went flying back into the snow and he scrambled over it toward her. He wasn't about to stay close to the damn chicken thing if it could do that.
"Okay, i vote killing it. Now." The youma seemed happy it had knocked Corvus over and started to advance on them again.

"Nn... Gladly." She groaned as she pushed herself up, shooing Arsinoe away from her so that she could stand. Now she could feel the magic behind her senshi abilities breaking through the dam that they had previously been trapped behind. Every sting from every tiny cut and scrape now marring her skin only added to her desire to see this thing taken down.
"Get ready to run again." Her eyes narrowed as she placed her hands out in front of her, focusing her power into a sphere of dark, stormy negative energy. "Violent Revenge!" She released the attack, letting the sphere fly in the direction of the devil bird's midsection.

"if I get covered in chicken bits I will never forgive you" He looked at his cousin for a moment before scrambling through the snow away from her and toward a bit of shelter behind a park bench.
He knew his cousin was more powerful than him but was still a bit shocked at the difference in power between the two of them. At least it meant that when the ball of energy went flying at the chicken it did what it should have.
The youma squawked again and it seemed to go on forever before the creature dissolved into a pile of dust

She hadn't expected just one attack to be all it took to dust the youma, figuring that Arsinoe's 'Dancing Lights' had done more damage to the chicken than she had given it credit for. Corvus watched on for a moment or two to make sure that the dust was actually final before relaxing, head tilting towards the direction they'd left the youma's nest in.
"... We should check those eggs. I have no idea what was inside them, but with how protective that thing was?" Her brow lofted. "Up for it still?"

He reached under the park bench and picked up a rather large stick. "I think getting rid of the eggs is a good idea. It could be more of the chickens." He walked back over to where she was and slung the stick over his shoulder.
"I mean, enough of those chickens laying eggs and sucking energy? That could be a lot." It would be better to take them out now

"... Do you have any idea just how gross cracking open eggs of that size would be?" Her face twisted into a grimace; much more familiar of an expression to her cousin than her battle-ready stance was, most likely.
"It's a good thing we have separate hot water tanks for each of the showers back home... You'll just have to hope idiot hasn't used all of yours up."

"If he did he'll be finding a way to get firewood so i can make hot water." He smirked slightly. "Just try not to break them open so they get all over your feet that's all."
They headed back through the snow toward the chicken's nest and for a moment he was a bit shocked to not see anymore eggs. Instead there was a clearing full of passed out people laying in the remains of cracked egg shells.
"..... there were people in them."

"I'm sure that would work out wonderfully. 'Rikard, go fetch me some firewood'." She rolled her eyes, shaking her head slowly as she hobbled back towards the nest, trying to keep an eye out for her shoe along the way. She was certain that it would either be found or, in the way that senshi attire worked, it would reappear the next time she henshined up.
"... We should probably call someone. Even with whatever strength bonus we've got like this," she gestured to their fukus, "I don't think we could carry all of them to the hospital."

He almost told his cousin that they could just leave them there, they'd wake up on their own eventually, but somehow he didn't think that would go over well.
"You're the one with the phone down your shirt, god knows why, so call someone?" He looked down at the closet person laying in the snow. They at least just seemed to be asleep. "We can get away before rescue shows up"

"Isn't yours in your subspace?" Her brow lofted slightly as she shot him a look before sticking her tongue out at him as she pulled her phone out from between her breasts, flipping it open so that she could place the emergency phone call.
"Go find my damn shoe."

"Yes, because that's where i'm -suppose- to keep it." He rolled his eyes and headed to look for the shoe. "Sticking a cold phone down your shirt..." He muttered to himself as he looked around where they'd first fought the chicken.
Eventually he found a bit of black sticking out of the snow and dug it out and held up his cousins shoe.

Once the phone call was made she wandered around the shrubbery, checking on each of the civilians herself before stepping back as Arsinoe rejoined her. She took her shoe from her cousin, balancing carefully once more as she slid her foot back into it before glancing at the lights she could see flashing in the distance.
"I believe that's our cue to go. I'd rather not be caught here once the medics start moving around."
At her cousin's nod of agreement she turned, quickly heading back the way they'd originally come. It hadn't been quite the a** kicking she had been looking to, but it was certainly better than nothing.
