While she and Barbara would remain completely oblivious to the happenings going on a short distance away, Yanfei was watching the infantrymen she was speaking to with curious eyes, she knew there was something going on, something enough to make her even more suspicious of them. "...You must be curious of my world, isn't that right? Well, today is your lucky day. I have just the thing for you! If you would like to read through, you will understand my world better. " As those words ended, the book they didn't quite notice floating behind her, would suddenly appear floating above her raised hand. "Interesting, isn't it? " She smiled, a cute, innocent smile that would soon turn into a cold, rather frightening smirk. "Let me read you the story..." While she had them confused and distracted over what they believed to be a harmless little book, she began to work on her plan, just as the guns began to raise, something of a fiery doom would appear directly over the grouped up infantrymen......
Only for it to completely disappear suddenly, as her surprised teal-green eyes widened as the sight of a familiar young woman now stood directly in front of them. She moved like lightning, it was almost as if she just came out of no where! Eula was always so impressive! These poor guys had little chance to win now, not that Yanfei couldn't handle them herself, Eula just made them disappear a lot quicker, and far more impressively, too.
As the threat was now out of the way, by the time Eula turned to them, she would see the almost terrifyingly happy smile Yanfei wore as she faced her, she looked like a overly energetic cat ready to pounce her favorite, beloved toy! ..And she did, in a way, by jumping at her with arms extended to wrap around her neck in a hug! "I suppose your right about that! " She finally let her go, taking a step back to give her that needed bit of space. "Let's keep building that up, this way, you can keep finding me. " She said with a playful smile. It had been quite a while since she last saw her, and given their bit of history, despite not seeing Eula often, she felt a strong attachment to her. That much was obvious with just how excited she seemed when she suddenly showed up here. Barbara meanwhile, gave her a nervous smile. Not due to her presence, but due to, well, everything that had just happened in these last few minutes. Being thrown into a whole entirely new world wasn't exactly an easy thing for her to just adjust to. "You are Eula, aren't you? " Her smile grew more genuine. "My sister was right about you..You are amazing! " She wasn't exactly into extreme violence, but even Barbara was left impressed at her display. She was exactly as Jean described, if not even better. It seemed she would find that out rather she wanted to or not! "..I..was hoping we would all stay together myself! I don't want to be alone out here.." Clearly, as if she would leave them after the first encounter of anyone of this world went so badly. Yanfei snickered quietly, why was it less intimidating, and more cute when Eula went on about her vengeance? "Oh, don't worry, I have no intention of leaving your side, Eula. Consider yourself stuck with me! " That should actually be quite terrifying.

Eula "Buah?!" That sound of shocked lost composure coming from Eula's mouth was rather amusing, given how rare that must have been, but she didn't expect Yanfei's greeting. Once Yanfei released her, Eula let out a very dramatic huff, trying to make it as clear as she could how offended she was by such a familiar act. And yet the flush on her cheeks wasn't something she could hide so easily. "Unbelievable!" She declared in the most indignant tone her voice allowed. "That is hardly proper treatment for a noblewoman. I'll remember this!" With the way her heart was racing in her chest, she sure would remember it. Arms crossed, she turned her so very cross expression towards Barbara as she began to speak. "I am. The descendant of-" but before she could call out what she expected Barbara to complain about, she continued. "...Hmph! You both think it's acceptable to act so familiar with me. And to think the Acting Grand Master would say such things about me behind my back. She'll think twice about that once I've exacted my revenge." The real question was, would the people of this world be able to handle Eula any better than the people of Teyvat? ...Probably not. "Good, at last you act compliant. We'll just have to see if you can manage to keep your hands to yourself from now on!" Because Eula just hated that hug soooooo much! While it may be uncomfortable for her given her lack of human contact, even and especially when she was growing up in a borderline abusive household, it certainly wasn't such a bad feeling. Especially since...
She cleared her throat, turning. "In any case, we need to secure food and shelter before night falls. If we can't find a town nearby, I can hunt while Yanfei uses her vision to prepare a fire. Follow my lead, and keep a watchful eye for monsters or bandits--or worse." She assumed the infantrymen they had fought were part of some larger military, which was a bad sign of things to come. If it was an organized military, it was possible it was the military for an entire country they were targeted by, or perhaps worse. ...She'd need to think over their possible countermeasures if they were targeted again, by a larger, more capable force.

Yanfei's amused giggling went on to last several moments, further driving up her oh-so-serious friends obvious embarrassment. "Hehe, It will be okay, dear Eula. Though, if you really want to exact revenge for this absolutely terrrrrrible treatment, you could......" She held out her arms. "Return that evil hug! " She said with a playful grin. Of course, she didn't actually expect her to do it, it was Eula! So, she set her arms back down, still wearing that playful expression on her face. She did so love teasing her! Yanfei wasn't the only one to fall into a fit of giggles, how did one so 'terrifying' and serious make everyone around her so amused? They knew her well enough, enough that nothing she said was ever taken seriously! "Aww, does that mean snuggling against you is out? It might get cold come nightfall! " She would never stop teasing, would she? It was even more amusing, considering how she could create a fire at any moment. Getting cold was probably not possible."Okay, okay! That sounds like a plan..We should probably get moving before anymore of those people show up.." Who knew what kind of backup they had? They seemed pretty prepared, so she didn't doubt there was already a team on their way. Not that they couldn't handle them, of course.

 ".....What is this..? " Faruzan squinted her eyes, her hands shielding them in the blinding white lights that shined down on her, before she could even register what just happened to her, she realized she was instantly surrounded by many armed men. It wasn't hard, after so long ShinRa had plenty of time to figure out just when the Tear was getting ready to be active again, and they were ready this time. In the dead of the night, too. All she could just barely see was those men, and the many blinding lights they so perfectly set up around the perimeter.
And after so much time, and so many losses, they knew talk wasn't an option anymore. The only options were to sedate all off-worlders before they had a chance to get away. And so, they gave her no explanations, not a word was even said before the sounds of the tranquilizing guns the men were armed with. Yes, everyone of them, in case one went down, another would have backup. They were really not risking loss this time! Faruzan was so lost and confused, not to mention disoriented from the lighting and affect travel from distant worlds had on most people, she couldn't, for once, get her mind to think straight and act, as if she really had any chance against this army in the first place...
The one fired..
And just as he fired the shot, the lot of men were suddenly yelling in distress, just as the a figure dropped down from the sky, as far as they could guess, from out of no where, directly in front of Faruzan and taking the tranquilizing dart in her shoulder, of course, this only caused the one shooting to be even further alarmed, and shoot more. Two more struck her, until a golden barrier of light surrounded herself and Faruzan. A little late, but she was no miracle worker in stressful times. Controlling the vines that were now constricting the men and causing them to scream, all the while trying to protect the mysterious new woman, AND get a holy shield to protect them both, it was a lot to handle herself! Three tranquilizing darts had struck her, and by some will power she had to protect this woman, she didn't drop down right there. No, she squeezed them tighter with the vines, raising her hands and moving them quickly to the left, Faruzan would see those caught in the vines fly to the left, and then slam to the ground as Unisha brought her hands back down suddenly. She could feel the affects of the tranquilizing agents taking affect, but she wasn't backing down...Though.she was starting to stumble as she tried desperately to fight it. It really was incredible she was still conscious after getting hit with three! "Hmph...My turn! " There was some spec of confidence in her voice, she really wasn't about to stand there and watch this poor girl take all the heat when she knew it was all meant for her. To protect someone she didn't even know, earned her the highest amount of respect. "It's time you let Madam Faruzan, teach you all a lesson! " A lesson, they wouldn't soon forget. As her bow seemed to appear out of thin air, a teal glowing polyhedron appeared of pure anemo energy, as she readied her bow, with everyone in vines, or attempting to flee, she had plenty of time to fully charge her shot into the mass of the army, and upon striking the ground near them, they would find their selves in a whole new flight, still bound by Unisha's vines, but being thrown around like rag dolls as the anemo energy threw them around violently. Now, she would love to stay and watch them collapse and realize their bad choices in life, but she had a feeling it was time to make their own escape. Who knew if more were on the way? Grabbing Unisha's hand, she helped her snap back to reality enough to get moving, running with her away from the scene, they wouldn't be very fast with Unisha growing sleepier by the second, but they might be able to get far enough to lose them once they were out of the light...the night coverage may be their only hope right now..

They really wouldn't get very far as they likely hoped, before Unisha's energy had completely given out and she collapsed to her knees, she would have been on the ground completely had it not been for Faruzan, she was shorter then her, but still able to help at least keep her off the ground! "i'm sorry..I can't..i'm so....tired..." She was just fighting to keep her eyes open at this point, most of her body felt like a lead weight..."Keep going...north...you will see a town...follow the path..I've...." ......And she was out, poor Faruzan would have to take a moment to figure out what she was trying to say.. "Hey! " Oh boy. She lightly shook her. No response, those sleeping tranquilizing darts had fully taken affect...had it not been three, she might of actually fought it off..It really was impressive she lasted as long as she did.".....North...follow the path? " She glanced ahead, there was really nothing ahead of them but grassy fields, not even a forest in eye-sight. There was,however, an endless branching, massive vine for as far as the eye could see. "..Vines.." She had to think for a moment, her power seemed to have a incredible ability to manipulate vines, those men sure learned that the painful way. ".... I see.." Those vines were the path she made for her to follow. It seemed, she expected her to leave her behind and find herself shelter instead. "..How troublesome..She really expects me to leave her behind? " She was almost insulted! As if she would do something like that..If she had to wait for her to wake up, regardless of how long that might be, she would do it....

As a little time went by, and Faruzan refused to just leave the woman behind, what they both feared seemed to come exactly true, when several black helicopters made their grand appearance coming from the distance. It didn't take very long before they were surrounding the two, while two of them landed on the ground not far from them.As one of the doors slid open, they would see a woman sitting there, looking directly at them. She lifted her red-framed glasses a bit, smiling coldly. "It seems today is truly my lucky day.." Unisha had the reputation of Azura, nearly impossible to catch, but that luck apparently ran out today. "Let's make this simple, don't cause any further trouble, and I might..." She reached for something behind her, it was pretty dark in the helicopter itself, so seeing anything beyond her was almost impossible. "Not have to harm this one. " She pulled forward a drowsy, barely conscious young girl of forest green hair. "One of yours, isn't she? " She smiled again. "I can see by the horrified look on that face of yours, and by this gadget.You are both of the same world. " A green softly glowing emblem, otherwise known as the Dendro Vision.
"Collei! " If anything could really spark her anger, it was seeing sweet little Collei being threatened, or in any kind of danger. She wanted to attack, but with that woman holding her as she was, she couldn't risk it. "How dare you, you monsters! What do you want?! "

Tartaglia"Childhood dreams are all too easily shattered. Even if you just let them be, they will fall to pieces all by themselves. So, someone has to protect them, right?
If you make a promise, you keep it. If you make a mistake, you apologize... And if you give someone a dream, you defend it to the end...
That is what family is all about, isn't it?" "I told you to stay behind, but you just follow me everywhere. I appreciate the company, but I get into a lot of danger, you know." Tartaglia said to his little floating companion as he sat in the back of a helicopter, the two infantrymen across from him looking mildly perplexed by the floating thing beside him. Paimon had been practically attached to him by the hip since they had been reunited, the poor floating girl having been separated from her closest friend. "Wonder if this is how the Traveler feels." He chuckled. "Haha, I do love chatting with you, I just worry what the Traveler would do if I let anything hurt you. Make sure you stay behind me, all right?" Paimon was an expert at hiding and letting her strong companion handle all the fighting, so it should be fine.
As the two Shinra helicopters touched down near the unmarked choppers, Tartaglia was quick out the door, following information of an off-worlder and a high priority target. "Well well well!" He called out, grabbing everyone's attention in typical Tartaglia fashion. Two infantrymen followed behind him, guns drawn. "What do we have here? The off-worlder is a Vision-bearer? You must be capable of fighting, then. And we have a third party joining us! Are we going to have a little three-way dance? I was just looking for some new partners..." If Paimon had followed him outside of the helicopter, it would be perhaps one of the greatest strokes of fortune for both Faruzan and Collei, as her recognizing them as the Traveler's friend may make Tartaglia reconsider his position in this potential battle.

While Unisha continued to sleep due to the affects of the tranquilizing agents, one might say, things were getting a little tense, even heated between the two parties whom all decided to pay an unwelcome visit. Natasha's 'troops' readied for battle, but not against the off-worlder that just found herself in this world, but against the ShinRa troops and Tartaglia, a name everyone was starting to quickly learn of. Another group with Natasha on the other hand, focused their attention back to the off-worlders. It was a bit chaotic, for sure. "Be gone, these three are ours.." It really was some kind of competition between ShinRa and Natasha, a former ShinRa scientist who went rogue and created her own little army. She wanted everything for herself, it seemed. For one person, she did have quite a lot of troops at her side, and continued to gain more each day. "If you will not leave, I will have my men make you disappear.." She heard the rumors about the young man there, but she never really seen his abilities. There for,she had no idea what her men would be up against if he decided to attack.
Whatever they decided to do, Natasha would make the first move, motioning for one group of her troops to advance toward Faruzan and Unisha, while the others positioned their selves ready to fight the ShinaRa troops if they had to. "I'm so confused..! " What was going on? Did the world just want to keep puzzling her mind with more impossible things to figure out? Why was another Vision-bearer here, and why did she get such an uneasy feeling when she looked at him? It didn't feel like he was here to help..As if matters couldn't be worse, there was the other group advancing towards her and Unisha. Holding out her hand for a second, her bow materialized there instantly. "I'm giving you one warning, and one only..Stay back, or I will make you regret your choices! " She really was just bluffing, while she could send them flying in the air a few times, it likely wouldn't cause much damage to really stop them. What they likely failed to realize, due to their attention being on something or someone, while Unisha laid there in that uncomfortable sleep, her body was emitting the very faint, soft glow. Not easy to see in the day light as it was, but it was clear something was happening. She was a very powerful Serenitian princess who's holy abilities were nearly unmatched when she took to her true form,but even in human form, they were pretty incredible. Since the moment she was shot with those powerful sleeping agents, her body was already working on trying to eradicate it from her body. As the men continued their advance, Faruzan sent off a warning shot, only to have them raise their weapons!
One fired his own warning shot, sending a bullet to graze Faruzan's cheek, enough to create a mark across it, and enough to send her stumbling back in shock.
Until that man, and the men that stood beside him would feel something tightening around their legs, it moved up to cover their entire bodies in thick vines, and by this time the ground was already becoming covered as massive vines ripped out of the earth, snaking their way to grab onto the helicopters themselves, one managed to grab the tail end of one of the helicopters, snapping it like a twig.Unisha was slowly standing to her feet while all this happened, her eyes still very sleepy, yet her powers were showing she was pretty awake! Another vine wrapped around the woman scientist's throat, keeping her accupide and making her release Collei who was suffering the same affects Unisha was, though not quite so severe. She seemed very tired, though.. As before, several orbs circled around her for a split second as she began to charge her arrow, sending it off into an exploding mass of Anemo magic, the currents of wind throwing anyone and anything that got to close to it around like a rag-doll as she rushed for the helicopter with Collei in it. "Collei! " As she ran, anything that got in her way would be snagged by more vines, giving her a clear path to her young friend, even more so helpful was the bridge of vines Unisha created to help her up, and down the moment she got to her.

Seele Several more Shinra helicopters were converging on the location, Unisha had woken up and begun to fight, Tartaglia was about to join in, and as if that wasn't enough, a sudden pulse shot out of the tear once again, hurling unwilling off-worlders into the world to join the fray--landing them close to the action. One, a young woman with two-toned hair, landed with a deft roll, summoning a scythe to her hand as her eyes scanned the area around her. "..." Where in the world was she now? Her natural instinct was to prepare for battle, especially at this bizarre new feeling of what she would later understand was being taken from her world and brought to this one."...What?" A deep male voice let out as he landed on one knee, looking around the area just as confused. Spinning through the air and stabbing down beside him was a strange looking spear--and Dimitri recognized it instantly to be Areadbhar. He grabbed his lance and drew it from the ground swiftly, his eye scanning the many people around. Everyone looked to be ready to battle, but who was friend, if anyone, and who was foe?"Well, just in time." Tartaglia mused. "How would you like-?" But one of the infantrymen behind him opened fire on the woman."Hmph!" Shifting in her position, she suddenly flashed into a violet haze, before appearing to vanish from the spot she had been in--her speed being so incredible she positioned herself behind the one who shot at her in the blink of an eye, cleaving through his torso with her scythe before turning and shoving the scythe's blade up through the other infantryman's throat, quickly and mercilessly killing both of them. "Who's next?" She challenged testily, swinging her scythe with killing intent for Tartaglia next.Summoning his Hydro daggers, Tartaglia blocked the attack, grinning. "You know, I prefer this outcome!" He shoved her back, and the two would begin to trade blows at an incredibly rapid pace.Turning his attention away from those two for the moment, he looked to the teal haired "young" woman along with the barely conscious green-haired one. And also the Neo SOLDIERs pouring out of the helicopters, drawing blades and storming towards Unisha's group quickly. "Tch!" Well, he didn't know if he'd get along with these people in the long term, but from the looks of things, they seemed to be trying to protect or save someone. So for the moment, he'd defend them--dashing into action and cleaving a wide attack through a group of Neo SOLDIERs. "Stand down!" He commanded them, but he received nothing in return other than their incoming blades, which he skillfully parried and countered, stepping back to keep on the defensive as he placed himself between the Neo SOLDIERs and the three women who seemed to be defending themselves. "Take her and retreat!" He told them while keeping his attention forward. "She's in danger here!" With him battling these SOLDIERs and Seele and Tartaglia trying really hard to actually murder each other, this place had turned very dangerous very fast. As if it was safe before! (( OoC: ))

There was SO much going on, even Unisha was having quite the time keeping up with it, though in her case, she still wasn't at one hundred percent, still, it was far better then what she was only seconds ago. It seemed the tear was angry today, as it was very active as it so well displayed by sending two more unsuspecting off-worlders into this mess. She could only imagine what was going on through there minds right now, not that she had any time to explain it. She focused on the two new arrivals a moment, trying to figure out what side they were on. The moves the mysterious woman displayed made her silently hope she didn't make her or her friends here her enemies. It was very confusing right now! She knew Tartaglia was out of the picture for allies.His last show put on at Avalanche mansion wasn't that of a friendly man!
Then there was the blonde haired man, his armor looked befitting of a king, though who knew, there was a lot of armored people in this world now days. It wasn't really until he made the move to act against the Neo Soldiers and clearly defend them that Unisha could feel a little at ease, he looked strong, a plus right now.."There isn't anywhere to go, it's nothing but forest and land for miles.." And in this situation, it wasn't the best idea for the three girls to run off into that, while there were helicopters that could easily catch up to them if anymore came. It seemed for the moment, the best idea was for them to all stand together. "I can raise a barrier around each of us, it can only take so much damage before it will break, let me help you! " As soon as she finished those words, the golden barriers would appear around each of the girls and the man, they were completely transparent, with only that faint golden hue, so they were in no danger of being a distraction for them while he tried to fight. Faruzan raised her bow, she wasn't about to sit back and watch them all fight, so long as she stayed next to Collei as she tried to fight the tiredness off, she could put a few arrows in anyone to tried to get near from a distance, while Unisha would use her vines to catch anyone trying to get through. If somehow they did, Faruzan's arrows should take them down.

    One of those Shinra helicopters converging on their location had landed, and for now, seemed to be in no danger of the vines Unisha had just about everywhere. While more Neo Soldiers rushed out ahead, another figure made her exit. Her long silvery hair flowing with the heavy winds created by all of the helicopters. There were....a lot of them. She began to walk calmly toward the pair of off-worlders, one of which was Dimitri. He didn't look like one to pick fights with, but she wasn't about to let that stop her. Stopping a safe distance directly in front of him, she would reach for the hilt of the large sword at her back. "............" For a moment, her eyes trailed off to a distinct pink-haired princess, well, this was...a strange feeling...she looked on to the two girls next to her she was obviously trying to protect, before they would return to the man in front of her. "Sephriea?! ....What are you doing? Why are you with them?? " Definitely not the outcome she expected to see. Sure, Sephriea wasn't exactly the fun, friendly outgoing type, heck, she never really got to spoke to her because of her awkwardness and antisocial attitude, but she still knew her enough as one of Avalanche's own. A very lost confused soul, and as she would learn, very naïve. It didn't take much to getting her on ShinRa's side, a small bribery of 'helping' them round of off-worlders, for a chance to meet the only person that kept coming to her mind, she was curious, she had questions, and all she really wanted to do was meet the person she only heard stories about, her so-called father.
Unisha however, wouldn't get a answer before Sephriea rushed forward, she knew not to make any lethal strikes, her orders were to bring the off-worlders in, not kill. Her blade would skid against the ground as it came up into an upper-cut , intending to injure his arm had he not managed to block her attack. immobilizing him would help her chances.
