How odd the tables turned, Amrita was trying to convince her not to give up for once. It was odd, looking at her taller now, she was mangled badly, but she was still the same Ghoul that had stood beside her during their exam and always put her best backwards foot forward when the time came.
"If we die what do we accomplish? You heard Red, I know you did we were standing under her when she said it. We need to leave. We need to survive to find out why this happened and how to stop it." She stretched slightly raising her arms up above her head before lowering them down half lidded eyes studying the group.
"That b*****d of a human might be down, but he has his weapon back, and his hunters. But they aren't bothering us, for now. They want to protect their leader, and I want him dead do not get me wrong. But we need to get out, we need to warn the rest of Halloween what we're up against. We need to tell Riley, Mal, Jericho, the list goes on. Everyone needs to know what happened here somehow."
She glanced towards Red again, "And the longer we stay here, the more Red seems to slip away. That last attack, that wasn't Red, that was the other person, the other voice, maybe her Weapon before it ate her sounded like that." She frowned, "The fact is Red might not be in there anymore, if the Weapons taking over as they fall apart, then nothing we do can convince her to stop."
Short of killing her that was...
"So if we don't leave; what do we do?"

Hey he remembered this part. He sat down at the desk, finished his exam and then the gas came. And he took a wonderful nap. After all the blood and murder and pendants and horses made of fire... he got a wonderful nap.
It was just nothing and then a voice. And the voice said."Wake up, Bro." Wait. That's not right. The voice said something about him not fighting enough and then he got his weapon. Right?"C'mon. Wake uuuuuuup!"Hmm.. no I'm pretty sure that wasn't what it was. Wait why is it so hot? Why is it simultaneously chilly?You aren't dead, snowflake.Bix's eyelids fluttered a bit and he felt a bit like he'd been standing in a freezer. You know when you work somewhere like convenience store and you have to go into the cooler to restock the drinks? He felt like that. "Before?" He let out a groan, trying to lift his head. Nothing on the albino was white anymore. HIs coat was bloody, slashed and burnt and his skin and hair were singed and grimy. He really looked like hell. And now he was a bandaged up mummy. He cracked his eyes. "Thanks." It was all he could manage for now but it definitely was a bit psychological because physically he felt fine. His head ached a bit and he was cold, but he was able to stiffly rise to sit up. "Tika and Gale?" [[ Bix is aliiiiive! ]]

With all the commotion and yelling, Bea felt disoriented more than ever. All she could hear was screaming and several people shouting for them to run. Next thing she knew there was...
FIRE! FIRE ALL AROUND! As fire was blazing out of the giant creature, flames slapped all around Bea as she stood there like a terrified rabbit being cornered by a hunger crazed werewolf in heat. Status: DEAD

((I hope it's okay to just jump back in like this ;;OTL))
Danny had eventually just crawled back to the edge of the room, trying to avoid all the danger. Normally she would've flown into battle, and basically just started hitting things, but this time was different. For once, Danny was actually having second thoughts.
Voices suddenly pulsed through her mind. Mixtures of I WARNED YOU, THEY DID THIS, YES, LET ME HELP. Danny held her head. Where were these coming from? What was going on?
Then fire came, coating the entire battlefield with hot ... and cold. Danny let out a scream as fire hit her. She looked around and saw her friends disappearing left and right. Where had Colette ended up? Moure? Wasn't Mandy here? And Bea too?
Perhaps it was sheer will that made Danny stand back up. She let out a moan and returned to the battlefield, staggering horribly. "C-Colette? Moure?" Her calls were feeble, weak, empty. She was like a small rat being thrown into a lion's den, alone and afraid.
((HP: 11
6 was left over from the attack, + 5 from the effect)

She had luckily managed to control the sniffling and shaking, only allowing for a continuous flow of tears to stream down her face. It was easier to respond when she wasn't shuddering uncontrollably.
And while Tybalts apology was most certainly welcomed, his reaction perhaps part of the reason she started up in the first place, the crying stemmed primarily from the chaos that was this field trip. They were literally fighting for their lives...had Red said that would be the case at the very beginning? She couldn't remember!
"It is fine." Reaching a single white hand out, Natalia placed it on the canine's shoulder and patted once before dropping it again to her side. "A lot has happened...we just need to take a moment to think? While we still have a moment to spare."
She waved a hand West's way before rubbing at her eyes, acknowledging him as best she could. "Hey..." Had they ever met formally? She couldn't quite say...Holly had said a few things about him some time ago, but whether or not she had acted on her words and his actions...Natalia couldn't tell. Then, as Savior made her comments...her TRUE comments, which matched those of Tybalts, Natalia spoke up.
"It just...ugh...It feels as if we have no other options! I do not like this."

Calder arrived with Barth beside him, and looked up at the creature flying above. The idea that Barth proposed was nice, but how did you send a message to something that was flying? Smoke signals? A note attacked to a bird? Red would probably burn it to a crisp.
"We need someone who can fly." And then added. "And someone crazy enough to play messenger."
He watched as Christof made his way over. "Well, it's better than standing out here in the open in nothing but ...." Calder looked at himself. "..nothing. I'll help." Calder glanced at Barth, touched his arm, before moving over to help in the building.

With Shun now in tow Mitsu rose back to her feet though her stance wasn't always the steadiest. She had to fight it, for his sake as well as her own. This was far from over. Carefully she padded we way over to the collecting students watching the patchwork collecting rocks. Was he trying to build a trap like in class? Mitsu's large wolfish head tilted slightly at the thought. If he was trying to capture Red....the monster he was going to need a much bigger trap. " Is there anything I can do?" Her eyes shifted to look over at the remaining humans on the field. Luckily the Hunters were busy collecting or reviving their friends. Would that give them time? Would the monster attack again? ((Mitsu is still a large white wolf with Shun currently on her back owo; ))

Oh? Oh? Who was that? His ear fins flared widely at the sound of his name, and the swamp beast was looking around with a tinge of frantic panic now. It took him a moment to recognize the once shy, tiny patchwork girl who he'd practiced lines with in the Christmas Town play all that time ago.
"Ammy?" He rumbled, shuffling closer and unexpectedly lunged at the girl to snatch her up in a hug. And, unfortunately, began to bawl. "Ammy! Ammy! Everyone gone away! Couldn't do nothin' and now they all gone and G a bad boy!"
He buried his head into her hair, snuffling unhappily and rocking back and forth. "Ammy know how to fix it?" He finally managed to ask, gingerly setting her back on the ground and peering at her hopefully. "Please?"

Once Mitsu started moving, Shun leaned forward and grasped at her fur to try and make sure he wouldn't fall off her back. It was a little tricky when all he saw were shadows and he really had no idea where the hell she was going. Hopefully it was to safety. He really really hoped she didn't think that riding the two of them into battle right now as a good idea. As much as he would love to try slaying their foes, he knew when was a good time to retreat. Not to mention the last time he tried, things went oh so well. He didn't bother asking though. The Reaper knew he could barely hear things as is. Trying to really speak with anyone and expecting a reply was fairly pointless. He just had to trust Mitsu would get them away. ((Shirtless, sort of bleeding, and on a wolf))

Simone shook her head at the thought of everyone just attacking all willy nilly, especially seeing so many wounded. Yes, the eagerness was there, but some couldn't stand, some were only just holding on. "It wouldn't end well. Not at all." There needed to be more of a game plan than rush head long with fists and claws, and whatever else bared and raised.
She looked to Tybalt, breathing a worried sigh, sort of petting his arm absently in her distress. "I hope so. We need everyone we can get. We'll have to keep an eye out for them."
The lust demon watched Nat start to head off with Savior, bobbing her shoulders in a slight shrug of her own when the werelemur looked back to her and Tybalt. A small smile passed across her face as Savior took a pill and got back to fighting fit. Shifted her attention back to Nat, Simone tipped her head from side to side. Once the mob decided to make a move, there would be no stopping it, but they could offer assistance in anyway they could. Nat was right that they shouldn't just be milling about waiting to be crushed into nothing. The likelihood of dying was so very high though. She looked at Tybalt in surprise at his outburst at Nat. She gave a little disapproving tug to his arm. They shouldn't be fighting amongst each other. Save that aggression for those Jack damned Hunters!
She noticed West's nod as he made his way over to join them and raised her free hand in greeting. Just bending it at the below and opening her hand palm out. No wave, no flourish. "Hi, West."
"What if we made a plan and made them come to us?" She began tentatively. "Gather the forces and hold up somewhere, some defensible position. That way they come to us. Our strongest and most battle ready can be in the front and those who are, er, in worse shape can be behind." She brought a hand up to rub her palm her lips and cheeks. "If there isn't anywhere in particular, we can cluster together. The most injured or weakest in the center and the stronger on the outside...Or something."[ HP: 12]

"But Sammy, How do we get out of here?!" Amrita frowned at her hero. "I don't see a way out outside of off the cliff there, do you?" Seriously, Sammy! What else COULD they do? "I think Barth had a good idea - maybe someone can talk her into attacking the Hunters." The Vetala repeated what the Demon had said, since Sammy was ranting when the boil had suggest-hissed it. Before she could do anything more, she found a very green someone lunge at her; she barely had time to squeak-scream in surprise until she realized she was in a hug. A kind of bone crushing hug. Ooooh G. Not only that, but he was being very loud in her ear. " G!" Amrita gasped out, trying to wriggle her hands free to hug him back. It didn't work, so she just pat whatever body part she could reach. "G, you're not a bad boil! G i-is very good boil, it..it's not...not your fault, okay?" She tried to assure the crying beast, feeling rather uncomfortable at the whole idea. It hurt to tell him it wasn't his fault, because it forced her to realize that losing her friends, losing Lizzy...it wasn't her fault, either. Once back on her feet she reached up to place the backs of her reversed hands on the sides of his face. "C-Can you help us, G? We need to build a wall! With these." She pointed back at the rubble and rocks. "Please help, G? It...it might help a little! Please?"

Gargantuan twisted his head to eye the rubble that Amrita pointed out to him, and his tail twitched thoughtfully before he nodded with a stubborn sort of resolution. "'Kay... G help. Wall goes where?"
The monster paused for a moment before bumping Sammy with his face, clearly attempting to reassure her somehow even though he had no idea what was wrong. Then, it was off to heft a considerable boulder under each arm, grunting a little with the effort. They were heavier than they looked! But G would try his best.
"Wall--goes--where?" He panted, taking an uneasy step back towards the group.

"We walk, we run, we get away before Red set's us all on fire like a candle on a cake." She shrugged and looked towards the cliff, "Don't tempt me with that. That thing thinks getting out means killing our selves it might be easier just to jump in that case." She grinned sightly, a grim one that suggested it was a joke but at this rate, maybe it was the way out? Surely a last resort though. At just that time G thought it would be a good time to butt in, the monsters head was like an overgrown Scareon nudging at her. It only caused her to chuckle again before turning to the others seriously.
"What having Red attack the Hunters? Maybe, but what if the weapon inside her refuses?" She glanced at Pillows shrugging slightly. "We can try it but still."
Slowly Sammy turned away from the group looking towards Red, pockets of students, hunters, and two larger groups seemed to have built up in the time of things happening. Slowly she moved wondering what to do, what to say.
Eventually she stopped standing just apart from the other students looking up towards Red.
"Is this it then!?"
She shouted her voice sounding dry and cracked compared to the other times she yelled. She waved her hands towards the hunters, towards Caelius.
"You have what you wanted now don't you? You wanted him from the start to save us at least, or revenge, it doesn't matter! Take him, do what you want and let us leave ON OUR OWN."
Her body was shaking slightly, partially out of fear, what if the Weapon, what was inside Red disagreed somehow? What if it decided to burn them all once again?
"You want us to find it, to get answers, we won't find anything if you kill us all now! And the Hunters, when they find a way out and we're all dead, who will warn the others? Leave us be! Let us take our wounded and leave this canyon and return to the House and find our way back HOME."
She shivered slightly her body aching with every shout, but what else could she do? How much was honestly left of Red at this point to spare them?

 "...Wait," Barth said, reaching to grasp the top of Calder's arm instead.
He was weak, and tired. With his other claw, he concentrated until the goo piled up in globs again, one in green and grey, one a mixture of fleshy reds. Both continued to build until they were bigger than Barth, hulking on either side. Barth looked charred between them. They were some of the only dots of color still left on the battlefield.
"One of you go with Calder, the other with Christof," he said, determined, but they were already looking like sloppy messes, too much for him to hold together.
He was still holding Calder's arm, not looking at the goolems. "W-we keep being interrupted, don't we?"

Junko was sitting off to one side picking at her melting uniform, wincing as she peeled it off her skin like an..extra layer of skin. Like a shedding snake. It was disgusting. She swore she was pulling off her own skin at times. Was her hair okay? That was honestly all that mattered to her at this point. As long as her hair was manageable she would tolerate a little bit of singe. She allowed her own hair to wrap itself around her body, protective and covering every vital part of her body that didn't have her ninja outfit clinging to her skin. It hurt to move. It hurt to...do anything. It just hurt. But she had to keep on trekking.
Why was she hearing yelling? She heard one of the human females yelling, a couple of the humans actually, and Aksaja...and Amrita... "Why. Is everyone. YELLING?" Junko finally cried in annoyance, raking her fingers through her hair and turning on her heel to watch everyone. She was tired. She was angry. She was upset. She was annoyed. She just...wanted everyone to stop fighting each other.
"If someone, ANYONE, has an idea..tell me now. Since no one else can seem to make up their minds on what to do." They didn't have time for this! At any second Red could rear up again and finish them off! Or worse! The hunters could kill her and then kill them! It was just...argh! Her hair squeezed her own body in her frustration and she rubbed her temples. Keep calm. Keep calm. Keep calm. "All I see is everyone trying to play leader. Just..stop it. Stop. Now is not the time to be arguing about what to do next. Now is not the time to go 'Ohohoh! My idea! No! No! My idea! Do mine! No mine! No mine is better!' Just..pick something."
Was this seriously Junko talking? It was her mouth, her voice. Huh. Well then..!
