Welcome to Gaia! ::

The vohr that had clamped itself onto Toshi's arm released it after several hits directly in the face. It shook its head and growled low in it's throat.

"Hurts," it moaned softly as it circled the black haired man with the staff. It bunched its hind legs, getting ready to leap forward at him.

Angela watched the creature land heavily on Cheeva's back. "Bloody--" she really only had one option and it was either going to succeed in a little way or fail in a really serious, stupid way.

Well. She did have good aim. She hoped. She yanked her blade out of the creature she was sitting on, and flung straight at the other creature, grateful it was no further away than it was.

Major problem now was that she was without a weapon and there was a vohr less than five feet away, staring at her in a very angry, very hungry way.

Cheeva's elbow had little effect on the vohr. Her lack of leverage didn't allow her to put much force behind the blow. But seconds later, the vohr let out a yelp and retreated slightly, pawing at it's own shoulder where Angela's rusted blade was sticking out from the black, leathery flesh.

And thus, one more vohr died in a horrible, gory and rather painful way. What was left of its skin and muscles melted away into liquidy shadows and all that was left was a gleaming white skeleton.

**
The vohr in front of Angela was having a stare down with her. It knew that she was weaponless but it also knew now that she was capable of magic. It wanted her to move first. It made a feint slightly to the left but when Angela didn't fall for it, it lost patience and charged.


Angela was waiting for the creature to attack. It was only a few feet away and she knew she had only one chance. As she was sitting there, she was slowly building up an electric charge in her hands.

Despite her earlier words to Sin, she wasn't really capable of producing that much electricity. Sometimes, if she was angry, she could produce enough to kill a person. But she was tired, injured and hungry. She wasn't sure what she was going to be capable of right now. She figured she was only going to have one shot.

When the creature rushed her, she launched herself off where she was perched. Worst case scenario...this little stunt was going to cost her an arm.

But she was fortunate. She hit the creature head on, placing her hand firmly on it's muzzle and pushing her feet of the ground. When her other hand touched its head, she released the build up of electricity with a flash of heat. She pushed herself away from the beast, hitting the ground hard on her injured shoulder. She bit back a cry as she struggled to her feet.

The creature was down on the ground, seemingly stunned for the moment.

[ crying No one has posted and I'm being an insomniac so...forgive me!]

Cheeva felt a wobbling, somewhere around her knees. Why it was always the knees that gave way first, she would never know. Biting her lip, Cheeva kept up her fierce concentration on the bone-dog, even as its flesh melted from its body, something that barely raised an eyebrow. The smell was horrid - but sadly not the worst she'd ever encountered, either.

Which was a rather sad affair in itself.

A bright flash caught her eye and the girl turned, the bone-dog clattering along. She watched Angela cast some form of light magic over the creature. This time she did raise an eyebrow. She had never seen a light attack cause harm before. Blind, yes. Stun? No. Intriguing.

"Watch it!" Cheeva shouted to Zen as she directed the bone-dog on a loping, clicking course toward the stunned beast. Sweat dripped down her face and blood trickled from her lips as she directed her macabre puppet to open its jaws, to rear up over Angela's fallen foe. And then, with a twitch of her hands the bone-dog attacked.

Cheeva's hands shivered slightly; she felt that peculiar weakness somewhere about her collar-bone as she held the connection with the bone-dog.

Oh...wonderful...

The vohr let out one last scream before it crumpled to the ground and was consumed from the inside in black flames. Within seconds, there was nothing left but ashes...and a round, black fluff that squirmed out of them, and, as It saw Gypsum and the monster poised to attack him, swore a blue streak as It passed out.


Nimue winced but relaxed as she saw the wretched beast finally collapse, then felt a sudden wave of fatigue. She couldn't help slump forward in exhaustion, and watch the world fade. How useless she proved to be, as the one of the few people she could bring herself to care for was in danger...and she did nothing. She cursed aloud in unison with Sin as the Bond broke between them and Gyp and she fell unconscious.


Gyp froze for a moment as he lost all of his energy-sensing connection to the world around him. He heard the snarls erupt in front of him, and could only blindly throw up in front of him the suddenly feeble-seeming stick.

Cheeva fell to her knees as Angela rushed by, still maintaining a tenuous hold on the bone-dog.
She watched as the woman attempted to KICK the beast into submission. Foolish...yet it seemed to at least stun the creature.
"Of all the stupid, pig-headed..." Cheeva muttered under her breath and, sweat now streaking her face, she swung the bone-dog around to face the dazed creature.
Busy shaking its head, the beast had no time to see the blood stained jaws of the bone-dog descend. Cheeva grinned fiercely, her eye already searching for the last beast, desperately trying to ignore her shaking hands.

((Cheeva would like to maintain that kicking something in the face is a bloody stupid way of attacking it. Especially when it has teeth xp But the Amazing Flying Midget can have her own rules, if she pleases))
