Ryan had barely begun to hear Arel's response when something hit him and hit him hard. Hard enough that he suddenly found himself flat out on the ground. He didn't even to look up to see who or what had hit him. The tone was a dead give away.
Caelius.
There was a small hiss as he let out a pained breath of air and dug his fingers into the ground to keep them from trembling.
"They're not dead yet..!" He growled out, too foolish to back down even now. However when Wilson arrived, he had to resist the urge to snap his head up and look at him.

The laughter had finally come to a stop. The robed figure staggered under the sudden assault of attacks. More fog rolled forth off of it as it turned towards it's new attackers and swung. Whether it missed or not, it no longer cared.

Gene gave quick nods to everyone, smiling even at Xiu. "Good to see you're alive too, hon." She gave a wink, and looked over at the student hunter abomination thing.
"Would you shut the jack up and die already?" She gave it a sinister smile, before rushing it, phasing in and out to gain momentum. She finally had it, the rhythm was right. Passing through the thing, she phased back into tangible form, sending an aura of pure Fear through it.
"Now stay down and shut up."

While Mitsu had tried to watch Xiu's back this time it only turned out that Shun was still the focus and this time he had been hit. A terrible pain hit Mitsu square in the chest though it was nothing physical. She couldn't protect him, couldn't warn him, couldn't do much of anything but watch. Even her fear was failing her, unable to muster up the ability to heal.
With another hesitant step she moved closer to the reaper to check on him shortly after he retaliated. Was he okay? How badly was he hurt? "Shun?"

Cursing, she held her breath as Caelius pinned Ryan to the ground. She had barely even noticed Lex approach her until he finally spoke.
Gritting her teeth, she turned to snap at the life hunter. "This is not like the <******** movies! Those are my friends, and they're not dead! They've had my back more than once through all of this s**t! If those Halloween punks can find a way to help their kind turn back, whats to say that we can't do the same for them? Huh!? Ryan is right! People are giving up too soon!" She snarled, clenching and unclenching her fists, resisting the urge to hit him. "And don't you ever tell me what to ******** do!"

It was so simple to just follow orders. So easy, so straightforward. He was a weapon as much as Tracey and direction was what he craved. These guys had to die, that was all there was to it - he was oblivious to the search for an alternative resolution, a cure or a way to stop things.
In his mind it was a relief to just obey and let other people make the moral choices.

Yin nodded as he heard Shun's words. The older boil at least understood. The laughing was odd, and the blade sliced into him, oddly unsettling in a way he could not pinpoint. But then Miss Gene was there and it was weakened to the point that there was no further need to attack it. The secretary could splash the bits with his special liquid and bring back the student if there was one and all would be normal again.
"Maybe we should go help the others," he suggested, eyes starting to roam for a new target. Keep moving, keep searching.

Maybe Ofelia felt like it was her duty to see the end of another Sun Hunter, or maybe it was the insanity screaming in her head that didn't let her actual voice leak through. Either way she used a proper charge, taking yet another strike at what was Bix and Mina combined.
Outwardly all she could do was cackle, even when she landed back down nearly on all four next to Rep, and she turned to look at the other Sun hunter with a crazed look in her eye. "Let's flay 'em, flay 'em! Easier ta kill then ask questions, yeah?" She cackled and got up, prepping herself for another round. "Permission granted, no need fer forgiveness."
Inwardly, Ofelia was screaming for it all to stop.
One moment he was there, and the next minute he vanished.
It was like the moment she touched him, he saw something in the crowd and ran. Her hand fell as she tried to follow after him, but he had the advantage. People moved around her, someone shoved her, and Wilson was gone.
"Wilson?!" she shouted, spinning in circles. Of course, the spinning only got her more lost, and more confused. "WILSON!?"
She didn't see him anywhere. He'd left her, completely left her at the drop of a hat. She convinced herself it was to save that Ryan fellow- Wilson was like that. Cared about everyone. Well everyone except her of course, but that was another matter entirely. Deep breaths, deep breaths. She was fine. Totally fine. Alone in a crowd with minimal, pathetic means of offense and defense.
But totally fine.
No, she was better than this. She didn't need Wilson to protect her. Well no, she did, but she convinced herself that she didn't. She grimaced and shot at the monster, one round after another, taking her anger out on the beast. "Goddammit Wilson."

Shun let out another breath as Mitsu had rushed to his side.
"I'm fine," he murmured. Looking her over, he decided to see if he could help her out at all. This wasn't something he typically did for others, but he had to give it a try. He took a hold of her shoulder, and tried to focus his fear, however... again. He had never attempted to give someone else the critical eye. When he felt his fear fizzle after the effort, he cursed lowly to himself.
"Kusso... that didn't work. Just.. try to keep your mind clear," he murmured. He hadn't even realized she had tried to heal him just now.

<< WHELP, QUIT THE FLIRTING AND PULL THE DAMNED TRIGGER YOU WORTHLESS SACK OF MINIPET DUNG. >>
< Yes, your highness. >
Lex pulled the trigger, and it seemed like there was nothing. No energy shots, no cool explosion, not even a BANG! flag. What just -
Suddenly, a sharp and high tenor note sang forth from the gun, slamming right into the beast. He hadn't a clue what Regal did when he had absorbed enough Fear, but he'd just found out. Sound bullets.
< One, that was actually very impressive and awesome. Two, I was not flirting. >"
He turned to Kat, gun pointed at the ground. "Listen, I know this sucks, okay? I wasn't expecting to have to shoot at my own comrades. But look what those Haloween creatures are doing - they're taking down their own to heal them. In theory, the same principle applies. So please just stop arguing, and shoot your gun."

Ryan would find himself abruptly picked up, coat and all, and literally thrown into Wilson. "Then by all means," the tone was even more acerbic than usual, if not a little sarcastic. Short, impatient, "Feel free to try and save them."
There was a very strong implication that Caelius most likely had written the two off as dead regardless of any potential outcome.
The fog flickered again for a second, something fluxed, a tendril, and then a whisper, a single word. Distracted, the Death lead turned to trace the source -
- Only to catch an eyeful of the one of the Hunter abominations. He moved quickly, weapon forward as if to lunge at the not-quite Bix, only to shift past them, disappearing into the fog again, looking for someone else.
A loud crackle however, was left in his wake: a single dagger buried deeply in Bix's side. It glowed a dull grey instead of the usual blue and crackled, lightly at first -
- Before engulfing the infected trainee in white arcs of electric light.

He...he was down? So it seemed. The baku relaxed slightly, only to tense up again when she realized that the student--like Mort--would likely dissipate unless Arel got over here with that strange vial of his. Speaking of which...where was the secretary? She couldn't tell with all these bogeymen and hunters everywhere. "A-arel, there's another one here!"
She paused momentarily to watch the hunters, her brows knit in confusion. Having been completely distracted with taking out the false hunter here, the baku had had no idea about the conflict among the opposing team. That being said, whatever was going on, it looked serious. After a few seconds passed, she tore her gaze away, lips turning downwards in a frown. It looked to be a disagreement between the hunters--doubtlessly about their comrades who had transformed into those creatures--and Xiu obviously had no room to interfere.
Looking to Yin, she made a vague motion towards the general area. "There was one more of these cloaked hunters, right?" One more fake hunter meant that there was one more student weapon. Before she went off to find said fake hunter, however, she first approached Mitsu and Shun, crouching down beside the two. The former received a hug--and a very belated thank you for protecting her--while the latter received a worried look.
"You two are okay? I'm not sure what is going to happen after we defeat the last hunter--and...maybe those two hunter-turned-creatures--but..."

"Yeah," Harrison answered, smile fading a little, "it wasn't really her, but we baked uh-" he smiled again, "cookies. Like from the desert."
He put a hand over Jordan's, and leaned into it.
"Wish I could warm you up-"
Jordan was fighting, though, they had to get the kids cleaned up, and at the request to keep an eye on Rep, Harrison voiced an affectionate, "Okay~"
He kept an eye out for both of them from the rocks, until Tracey lit up like Christmas. Harrison gave B0nez a twirl, and made his way over. It was easier to ignore his aching torso with the pleasant buzz.
"Need some elbow room?" He asked, grinning.

He had been ready for pain, but not this. Wilson stumbled backwards as he clumsily caught Ryan with his cannon arms. He spun the trainee around to give him a once-over for any injuries and once he was satisfied, he looked back at Caelius. The words were sharp, but neither of them was in trouble. Not yet, anyways. There was a long pause before he finally answered, “Yessir.”
Wilson turned to speak to Ryan, but gawked as the division leader threw a dagger into Bix. That in itself didn’t surprise him, but the bright light coming from Bix? That, he definitely did not expect. “W-What did…?!” He grit his teeth and forced himself to look back at Ryan. Wilson should have known Caelius would have done something like that. The two were beyond salvation to him, after all. “Ryan. What did the frost demon say?”
