Rep has at first disregarded the reaper's companion, the way he always mentally dismissed anyone female. Xiu, he assumed, was of no consequence, that she'd simply simper or do other typically feminine and useless things while he trounced her friend.
What he wasn't expecting was for her to hit him, and was completely unprepared for the swing that connected with his fear shield, right over the recently mended cut on his chest. The result was an impact that made him hiss painfully.
"b***h. That was a mistake" he snarled, attention shifting entirely to the baku. No woman hit him and walked away.

The dog student may of missed the first time, but then he... (it?)... jumped? He noticed too late.
"s**t!"
He stumbled back, cursing.
"Agile creature, aren't you?" he muttered. "Oh?" he cocked his head at Tybalt's answer and grinned. "Clearly I'm not doing a very good job, then."
He rushed in for another attack... and tripped. <... Jake. What are you doing.> Shut up.

"Perhaps. Or are you sure its not just you being clumsy?" He asked before he spun around and slammed the heel of his boot into the hunter, just as he was rushing towards him. Though before the tonfa could find him again, he quickly pushed up, off the ground with his foot and jumped back out of the way.
"Clearly. Your welcome to try harder though." His grin increased, daring the hunter boil to come closer.

Today clearly wasn't his day. Jake growled, but then had the wind knocked out of him as Tybalt brought his heel crashing down on the hunter. RIGHT ON HIS STOMACH.
"OW, DAMMIT!!" He felt something moist. His wound probably opened again. "I'M GOING TO FREAKING KILL YOU."
He pushed himself off the ground, prepared to strike again, but stumbled.
SHUT. THE. HELL. UP. He was NOT in a good mood.

"Yes, me! Hi there~! And hello, Mitsu." Candace's voice seemed softer as she spoke to Mitsu before she turned back to Shun--wait. Damnit! He was gone again! Those cheap tricks weren't going to help him now. Candace was wising up to this.
He came at her and she ducked away, sighing. "So angry. You look great by the way, Mitsu. I'm glad to see you, well, relatively safe. I guess here is a bad example of that but...whatever. You're alive~. Atropos says hello as well."
And then Candace kicked Shun. Yup.

Trying to snap out of her mental dive Mitsu reared up for another attack but someone else had decided to have at Shun as well. She turned to face the new attacker and froze all together. Hastily she backed up, eyes wide as she stared at the most familiar face in the lot of hunters here. Candace.
There was an edge of unease, sickening dread, a note of thankfulness, and anger all wrapped up together. Mitsu didn't know how she felt about this particular hunter anymore and thus stood in place as still as a statue merely staring in disbelief.

It had been a long time since she had truly tasted ambrosia, sweet and thick, orange staining her lips, the texture of cool liquid tricking down her throat. A warm summer breeze, slightly acrid, salty, curled past. Everything was at peace.
"Three more nights." Her sister confirmed it, still deeply focused on her loom: a half-finished tapestry spinning tales and ultimately untimely fates of those who sought solace in their island. Mortals. Humans. They were nothing but their toys. A half-bent figure, pooled in blood, still had one arm unfinished. "Three more nights until we will be complete again, the three of us."
Seagulls called overhead. It was just them now, eternally peaceful. In the horizon, the endless sea lay bare of travelers. A quiet sunset.
"It has been long since the three of us have been reunited," Medea agreed, willing herself a little closer to her sister as she spoke, always curious. She watched the other continue to weave, arms deftly flickering back and forth through hundreds of strands. The lion seated at her sister's feet yawned lazily, stretched and then flickered his ears, eyes dull, obedient, like the other creatures surrounding them.
It would always be like this. Perfect and quiet. Her sister smiled. "Your company has always been well-timed. When she arrives, there is only a single matter that needs to be addressed."
Medea's heart soared. In two days, she would receive the promised moment. The moment where she would be reborn anew, away from the taint of her past. She barely restrained her elation: it took all her effort to remain calm.
Her sister turned towards her and smiled. "You will indeed be reborn, my sister. It will be your time as a true goddess, and for that you may cast away all obligation, turn away doubt, in turn, for a new-"
*
"Home".
The grey was both unpleasant and yet familiar at the same time, pieces, thick and heavy, clinging to her cloak, her bare exposed flesh, parasitic. The taint fed, gorged hungrily on her memories and those of the horsemen around her.
It felt heavy. And for a second, even as her mind screamed as she realized how wrong everything was, how now and forever the Insanity would win -
- And yet all Medea wanted was just one more taste, a single sample of that feeling one more time. The feeling of belonging and truly being home.
OOC HORSEMEN
- Horsemen you are still stuck in your SOLOS. But the more time you pass in the solo, the more you realize how wrong everything is. You try to move out but you feel slow, sluggish, tired, and you realize you YEARN these memories. You miss having a home. - Remember, NO ONE ELSE CAN SEE YOU the fog has ISOLATED you. - Go ahead and POST any snippet that you want to make up from your character's past, when they were a part of the old Four Clans isles. The memory overwhelms your character and you see nothing else...

The canyon wall shook as the attack from the hunter's scythe traveled up it, dislodging many of the rocks that were balanced precariously on the ledges far above them. The force of the attack was more than enough to send many of these clattering down, down the ledges towards the heads of the combatants. But none of them would shatter; in fact, it was any wonder if they were noticed at all.
A long hand made of fog reached out, carefully ceasing the tremble of a peculiar shaped rock. This one was in no danger of falling; it was safely back from the ledge. And yet still it rattled and clattered with a sound too distant for any of the combatants to hear, even those with exceptionally good hearing.
Carefully it ran its hand over the stone, sliding the smaller pieces that were loose, so loose back into place. Once it was sure that everything was back in place it looked towards the side, noting with satisfaction that everything was back in place. And yet...
There it was again; another ripple of Fear sang through the fog. It was then that the sounds of combat reached it, along with the tastes of Fear and Anger and Defiance and --
Those with 30% or higher Insanity would realize that the voices in their heads have fallen silent. Hushed. Then they began again, speaking in a crowd-like unison:
"Danger, danger, danger run run run RUN TRESPASSING RUN RUN RUN!"
Even with the warning it wasn't enough. The fog seemed to move in unison, suddenly and quickly pulling back. A dark shape rises from the midst of it. One that is very large, and very angry. It has grown to a height so tall that in order to look up at it you must crane your head painfully back.
(Art done by the lovely Hanyousblood!)
It threw back its head and roared, forcing everyone present to drop whatever they were holding in order to clap their hands tightly against their ears. Regardless of your differences, it seems that everyone has a much larger problem to deal with now, providing that it does not deal with you first.
A loud shot crashes through the ringing echos of the beast's roar, hitting it. The glowing runes on the creature seem to dim a bit as its eyes light up, searching for the interloper who dared to attack it.
With its attention turned, a figure in a bright orange cloak dashes forward towards the creature. By the way its head snaps towards the figure, you assumed that it received its attention. The runes on it are also glowing brighter. Odd...

The fighting had erupted into chaos. All around her hunters and students clashed, and Poke struggled to keep track of her friends. She briefly saw Shun and Mitsu fight with a a hunter, but just as quickly she lost sight of them. And was that Xiu with the axe guy?
Then suddenly, the fog began to receded. And something else that came out of it. Something...
"Oh sweet holy sally what the ******** IS THAT THING?!"
Poke was used to large beasts. Her mother was large. Her father was large. That big grey dragon back in the abandoned towns was large. THIS THING WAS RIDICULOUSLY GARGANTUAN. And most likely overcompensating.
She was awestruck by the sheer....no, she had no words to describe it. Clasping her hands over her ears to block out the ear shattering roar, she grasped at her pin and threw it. In flurry of shifting scales and claws, she took flight. The ground just didn't seem a very good place to be at the moment, and she could get a better picture of what was happening by air.
And yet, even in her natural form, she still felt like a ant.

He had been about ready to circle around and try and attack the Reaper again but something more pressing came up. Namely the large monster that was currently doing a nice little rampage.

The battle raged on and well, Deryk was still at a loss of what to do. The voices whispered how useless he was.. that was. Until they started screaming alarms at him.
As in the fog came together and created a giant behemoth. Now that was definitely a problem. Way more so than the students ever were here. And if they had actually killed any of them? That would be less help dealing with this monstrosity.
Biting his lower lip, he steeled himself before running in at the giant fog beast thing.

Fists held up at and at the ready, Xiu narrowed her eyes at Rep, her tail lashing behind her. "Well excuse me. If you didn't want me to punch you, then you shouldn't have swung that axe at my friend, you asshat."
Unfortunately, before she could emphasize her words with swift kick to the shin, she was suddenly made aware of the fact that the fog had begun to move. Before she could even turn around and determine where it was all going to, there was suddenly an earsplitting roar. Xiu clutched her hands over her ears, squeezing her eyes closed and waiting until the sound had finally faded away. When she deemed it safe, she dropped her hands and stared up at the creature.
Oh...Jack.
Quickly deeming the creature a much greater threat than the Hunter standing in front of her, she shot the redheaded man a scowl before moving away to strike at her new target.

Moving to help Bul up, Mei cringed at the sight before them. "Crap.." Hunters were attacking students, and students were fighting back. She was at a bit of a loss of what to do right now. She wanted to help protect the students, but she was also not wanting to make further enemies of the hunters. This.. was problematic.
Before she had time to decide, a deafening roar caused the doll to grit her teeth. This.. was not something she had been expecting. It was almost like a complete repeat of what had happened here a year ago. But surely..this wasn't--

One moment, Madison had been carefully descending - and the next she felt as though she was falling, just for one heart-stopping moment.
And then she was in the middle of chaos. The Hunter had barely enough time to take in the beast rearing over them all, let alone the freaks gathered around - s**t, this all felt way too familiar. "Deja vu," she muttered, drawing her swords grimly. She couldn't wait for Leon. She had to attack now.
Something whipped past her, trailing fog, and she snapped her blades up reflexively. Kouki caught on something, and she held on as momentum dragged her a few feet before the blades tore free.
