Okay, so the lizard thing had skittered into her branches. Didn't cats eat lizards, anyway? She pondered over that idea for a second, then shrugged and placed the kitten on her shoulder.
"Sic it!" she said, nudging the kitty. It meowed angrily, raising a paw at the lizard threateningly. So maybe it wasn't going to eat the lizard, per se, but it could at least scare it?

Lue grinned, opening his maw and spewing fire at the cat. Even as a lizard, he still had a few of his spirit-fire-spewing ability... stuff. Yeah.
Growling, Loki twisted and snarled, attempting to get out from under Demare. And then, it hit him. Well, metaphorically speaking, of course.
Spreading his legs apart for leverage and balance, Loki sat upright and used his head to slam into Demare's forehead, knowing full well it would have some impact.

Demare's head jerked backward a little bit, being caught off guard with the attack. He fell back onto his butt, releasing his dagger as it stuck in the ground rather hard. Shaking his head a little bit, he felt a little dizzy from the impact, but for the most part still had his barrings.
Growling, he lifted a foot and thrust it upward, giving Loki a hard kick in the face. He wanted a fight? He'd get a fight.

Cats had natural agility, even as little kits. The tabby leaped easily from Mayu's shoulder to her head, avoiding the path of the flame easily. It then hopped back down to rest in Mayu's cradled arms, giving a small hiss to the lizard thing.

Loki's head hit the ground forcefully as the foot connected with his face. Blood poured from his nose from the impact, and he reached up to wipe a bit of it off, snarling with anger.
Spotting the dagger, Loki reached out - and snagged it, fingers curled tightly around it. He then threw it, somewhere where Demare wouldn't be able to get to it easily; since the other had used it for devious deeds, he would not be able to use it any more.
But the short moment he had used to touch the blade seemed like eternity; ears pinned against his head, he could only stand the blade's screeching for a short time before he threw it. The screeching had hurt.
His eyes glowed a furious crimson, and Loki rose with seemingly renewed spirit, even with the ringing that remained in his ears. What a curious blade that was...
"Protecting your maiden with honor... how chivalrous. How... desperate." Hissing the last word, Loki smirked, just barely. The blood dripped from his chin onto the ground.

Demare didn't bother watching where Mordanath was tossed, more interested in Loki at the moment. He didn't need his dagger to defend himself, anyway. At least, he hoped he wouldn't need him.
As the other stood, he did as well, standing up slowly as he tugged at his black tattered scarf. He pulled the material off, tossing it off to the side as his hand began to sting a little. His fingers twitched as the flesh began to heal slowly, trying to form some sort of protective barrier around it as a safeguard from infection and the sort.
"What's desperate in protecting your friends?" he demanded, cantering his head a little bit. "Perhaps you don't know what that's like. I imagine you don't have them."

Mayu was getting quite bored of trying to catch the lizard, and it didn't seem that harmful anyway. Annoying, but most things in life were. So she directed her attention to other matters.
Returning to the site where Loki and Demare were "duking it out", the girl stood and watched for a moment. Then, spotting an iron pipe lying against the wall of the HQ for some unknown reason, a devious idea came into mind. She quickly slid over and grabbed it, then gated over to Loki. Cracking the rusty pipe over his head, she grinned and walked off.
"That was for the hat!" she called over her shoulder. Her next order of business would be finding one of their guardians.
Kimiko lived too far away from headquarters, one of the boys would probably break their neck before she could return with the girl. Neko, as she remembered, lived in Barton -- also too far away. Her final choice was Loki's house. Giving a shrug, Mayu slugged the pipe over her shoulder and head off toward the mansion.
Upon reaching the front door, the girl ferverously knocked on the door.

Okay, that had ******** HURT. Loki only hoped that Lue would give her hell right back; what was WITH everyone picking on him, anyway?!
Loki staggered, reaching up to feel blood starting to seep into his now shoulderlength hair. He was beginning to feel very woozy, and hunched over a small bit now, still on guard from Demare.
Opening the door, a black-haired man with longish hair tied up peered out of the doorway, golden eyes narrowed in slight curiosity, as well as doubt. "Who are you, and why are you here?" Kanth - or rather, Ka at the moment - was rather doubtful at the girl, considering she held a pipe - but knew very well that he could hold his own.
This silver-haired girl reeked of Loki, as well. And Ka hadn't seen Loki in a short while...

Once again, Demare was surprised at Mayu's actions. Maybe she COULD have stood up to Demian on her own... But then that would have hurt him, as well.
"I guess she must REALLY not like you," he joked, wondering if doing anything at this point would even be worth it. Mayu was fine now, after all, and Loki was starting to bleed quite a bit. "Hey, are you okay? You look a little... faint."

"Hi! You're Loki's guardian, right?" She didn't wait for an answer, and kept on talking.
"He and Demare -- don't know if you know him -- got into a fight at the Legend HQ. Can you go break it up before someone breaks their neck?"
Not waiting for an answer again, Mayu turned a full 180 degrees and began to walk back to the headquarters. If this guy wasn't going to help, then whatever. She could risk a few limbs being broken while she went to get help from either Kimiko or Neko. They weren't hers, after all.

A sigh, before Ka stepped out and followed, shutting the door behind him and then shoving his hands in his pockets. No one would miss him at the moment - Io hadn't even noticed that he had taken over Kanth's body - so he was free to do whatever he wished.
To whomever he wished.
He just hoped that nothing extreme would come to bite him again; he was far more uncontrollable than his twin ever was.
"By a fight, does that mean you ganged up on him as well?" Ka spoke, now noticing the blood on the pipe the girl was carrying. He was a sharp one, and his eyes narrowed further. No wonder she reeked of Loki...
"Don't need your damn sympathy..." Loki muttered, reaching up to cling to his scarf, fingers digging in rather tightly. He hated it... he hated being pitied, hated being felt sorry for... he wasn't done fighting. He'd rather die than to give up without a fight.
Unravelling his scarf, Loki let it hang down from his hand, before he turned and lashed it out at Demare, flame emitting from the ends. "Dance within the flames..." He hissed, looking more worn out than ever, though his attitude was far more feral.
In a way, he almost seemed... mad.

Demare was far enough away to simply dodge the scarf, bending backward enough so the flames only singed a little bit of his shirt and a small part of his long lock of hair. Clare no longer felt that there was a reason to fight, his calm nature returning to him. It was as if the fire had burned out after Mayu's last attack, and that he felt bad for doing what he did.
Anger... rage. That was such a dangerous emotion, and it tended to guide people's actions. He usually tried to not let it do so.
"Look, maybe you should sit down," he suggested, his eyes returning to their normal state. "You don't look too good, and I don't want to have to drag you somewhere to get looked at."

"Uh... Well, I clonked him with this pipe and slapped him, though I don't think it would've hurt much. And anyway, he deserved it; he burned half my hair off." Mayu scowled, tigntening her grasp on the kitten in her arms. It meowed, wriggling again.
Once she had returned at the headquarters, Mayu replaced the now-bloody iron pipe where it had stood before. It was just a few blood stains, no one would notice.

"Turnabout is nont always fair play..." Ka murmured, then caught himself. Damn that lisp... he cringed, hoping the girl hadn't noticed. Reaching forward, Ka plucked the lizard who was trying to hide from the girl's branches, stuffing him into his pocket craftily.
It was then that he spotted Loki.
Staggering back, Loki flattened his ears and all out glared. "Don't need your help..." His crimson eyes closed halfway, before he fell backwards, clutching the scarf to his chest right before he hit the ground.
Ka bent over and ran his fingers through Loki's hair, then turned to glare at the girl, holding his fingers out, fresh blood shown on them. "Don't think it would have hurt much...?"

Demare almost stepped forward to go to Loki's aid, but he stopped as Mayu and the man approached. Something seemed odd about this one; he seemed to know Loki, and the air about him was curious. It wasn't normal... At least, as normal as others appeared to be.
He didn't however, like the way he glared at Mayu.
"Who are you?" he questioned, prepared to move in case the man decided to try anything.
