He was attempting to escape the beads, but in his attempts was knicked by a piece of wood drawing his attention to the eternal who through the wood only to be accosted by a young half clothed one that threw swords. He growled in anger and frustration as the magical dagger sliced through the fabric and skin of his right arm. It hurt, enough that attempting to use his sword was painful but it mattered not.
In that moment it seemed the bead dispersed and he was free. He recalled his dagger to his left hand and sword in the right he want after the senshi in blue (Sandrine). He swung with the sword and slashed with the dagger, through the pain growing in him without the best accuracy.
General Two kept his bow at ready, drawing three more arrows and even the piece of wood that slapped against and bounced off his should did little to deter him. His shot was lined up for the pair of eternal ladies (Chariklo and Ida) only to find himself clothes lined and the shot released a little bit before he was really ready, which risked him hitting the senshi they were trying to rescue. Couldn't be helped though.
He hit the ground released his bow and rolled, but grabbed an arrow and squared off with the blonde eternal (Thraen).

Watch out for the arrow coming your way, he shoots three at once
The captain found himself decked before his weapon could fully find purchase in the squires leg. He stumbled, with a bit of yelp, before finding himself knocked onto his rear but a knight and he frowned deeply before scrambling to his feet and grabbing his communicator crystal. "Get in here," he hissed into it knowing the person knew exactly who he was talking to.
The lieutenant from the roof top rounded the corner looking shaken and ragged, only to spot the pink squire and almost back up, the glare pinned on him kept him from bolting. The poor boy didn't know who to be more scared of, but ultimately it seemed he fear the captain more.
He summoned him lowly water bottle and swung at the knight in front of him, giving the captain the opportunity to go after the pink squire more fully. He his aim was shaking and reluctant. It was clear the boy was just as terrified now as he had been earlier in the evening.
The captain, wasted no time going after the pink squire, harpoon in hand, slicing outward in an attempt to slice open him abdomen. He wasn't terribly close, but he'd jumped to her closer.
On one hand, she was relieved to hear a voice from beyond the door. She'd found someone. However, that in and of itself was still an immense problem. She'd found someone that should have never been here in the first place. And their voice... Metis had winced at the sound of it, could only imagine their--his?--state. Her hands skimmed the door, checking for any sort of handle, lock.... anything she could try to use. She found the edges of the door, felt the tiny gaps between the frame and the door itself. It shook when she slammed against it with her hands, but she wasn't fool enough to think she was strong enough to bust it down. "Hold on, I just... I just need to find something to get the door open," she called to whomever was within.
Her fingers found the hinges and she poked at the bolts, trying to figure out if they could be pried out. There was enough of a gap between the hinge and the bolt that something that could get under it. Taking that as enough of a sign, she leaned towards the gap between the door and the fame to call in, "I'll be right back!" Her boots echoed in the hall, and the last thing she wanted them to think was she was abandoning them in there. Moving quickly as she could down the hall, her hands skimming for something to use.
It took a little while, but she had success when she found some low lying pipes off a secondary hall. She could hear the water flowing within, and, bracing herself for potential heat, began to slam her foot into the joint of the pipe. It took some hits, but the bonus of being a senshi was at least the boost to her... well, not that impressive strength. At least to give her enough strength to knock the pipe out of its joint. Water gushed out--cold, thankfully--and Metis worked on getting the other part of the pipe loose.
Grabbing the pipe--it was slender, but hopefully strong enough to do what she needed--she went back to the door. The edge of the pipe was just thin enough to fit under the lip of one of the bolts in the door hinge, and with a bit of force on her end, lifted the pin up from where it was held. Grinning at one success as she managed to pull the pin out the rest of the way, she moved to the other at the bottom of the door and repeated the process. It... actually worked! The pin slipped out after a bit of work, and carefully, she pried the door open, watching it swing somewhat on the lock. There was a loud crack though as she really shoved it away. Hm.
"My name is Metis, it's alright. There's a lot of senshi and knights here to get everyone out. You'll be out soon," she babbled to what she realized was a knight, approaching him as she placed the pipe back by the door. Chains. He was chained down? This... might require that pipe again. "Are you hurt?"

Ram's HP: 32
Noisy, all of them. Like insects. Disturb a hive, and suddenly more appeared, and appeared. Growing in annoying mass. The one with the pipe struck again, and Ram brought up an arm to catch the blow instead of his ribs where it had been aimed. The limb throbbed, but it was not an immense blow, nothing he would care about for long. The bone maw opened, gold fangs catching the lights as he hunched, coiled and prepared to lunge at the nearest senshi (Cybele). Yet a flurry of something directed one of his three eyes to swivel away towards the source.
Something that was apparently still too late even as his head turned to fully investigate the movement. Brown, brown, brown, it flew towards his legs and his hunched posture did not allow him to keep balance as his leg was struck by... whatever it was. The youma let out a sound somewhere between a howl and a snarl as he tumbled to the side, the impact enough to send a jarring pain through his leg. Claws dug into the ground as he steadied himself in a crouch on all fours, glowing eyes flaming brighter as he took in the now gathered lot. Two bigger senshi, two small ones, and one still tucked in the cage.
He was strong, but the hunger he felt...
If bone could smile, his face would have twisted all the more. "Take your prize. I will take the stronger ones, the ones already at the edge of death. They will feed me," he rumbled, as close to a laugh and a mock he could create before the creature lunged... to the wall. His claws buried into the wood and drywall as he climbed ever up, leaping over obstacles and quickly putting distance between himself and the loud ones. He would eat elsewhere. His eyes glanced to where the Generals fought. They would not solve his hunger. He would fill that ache, then return.
A new howl of satisfaction echoed through the funhouse as he approached a very particular cell...

Gritting her teeth at the appearance of a second Negaverse agent, Palatine spared only a moment for the arrival of the Lieutenant, motioning toward him as she said to Sessrumnir, “Take that one. I'm finishing this one off.”
She attempted to dodge the next swipe of his harpoon, but it caught her side and tore open a gash. Blood seeped into her pink overcoat. Palatine put her hand to it for the moment, but it seemed impossible to staunch the flow of blood and fight at the same time. She chose to fight, sticking one leg out to trip up the Captain at the same time her fist aimed for his face again.
Lucasta growled lowly from her place beside Ganymede. Every few moments she would glance over her should to check on the Senshi, but it seemed as if Ganymede had fallen unconscious. Her eyes were closed, her breathing shallow.
She needed to be removed from this place now. And yet Lucasta had no choice but to rely on the Squire and the Knight, as she was incapable of dragging or carrying Ganymede on her own. But their way was being impeded by a Captain and a newly arrived Lieutenant. It would be some time before the coast was clear for extraction.
Unless she were to help.
With a last look at her charge, Lucasta darted out from the cage and sprinted toward the Captain and sink her teeth into his ankle.
The volley had gone off, and Thraen's teeth clenched with the sound of the bowstring releasing on the other senshi. None of the three were looking great, already bloodied and pierced. This general had to think he was going to be Peter Jackson's Legolas, brandishing the arrow like that, which brought uncomfortable concerns about possibly losing an eye in the next three minutes to Thraen's strategic calculations. But making that bow useless for a few has been a success. Now how to finish it?
He started with a feint and following jab, Disorienting you so that you can't just teleport and pick that bow back up is a start.
Attacking General Two for 2 Damage.
-------- -------- -------- --------
"HOLY HELL, HAMLET—" Sandrine started stutter-stepping and then completely fell backwards trying to avoid the sudden bladed onslaught. "I'm not your Laertes!"
The sword had marked a thin line across where the red of uniform bled in the blue, making the whole image a LOT more literal than the Senshi of Execution ever wanted it to be. The dagger sailed overhead cleanly, though, not taking into account a combatant that was quite so green or prone to the butt-retreat maneuver. He's totally trying to kill me. Well, yeah, you just chucked a magical sword at HIM, too, so I think he's a but justified in the ticked off department. I don't wanna die on my a**. Jack, be nimble already!
Lacking better position or strategy, Sandrine kicked with an oversized boot at the General's knees. ButtWings over there, don't fail that chained girl now!
Aquamarine's comment got perhaps the coldest look Seraphinite had directed at him to date. He wasn't about to go into how this was not an ordinary cat, how they had bigger issues going on, and the cell was getting incredibly crowded. Fast. The cat was annoying, though hardly a legitimate threat. The new Lieutenant caught a look from Seraphinite, but he was fine with letting Aqua deal with the questions. After all, he didn't have an annoying cat or Jet to handle at the moment.
But then just like that, they had a hell of a lot more on their hands.
Three more Order energies piked before they barreled into the small room. And about all he cared about was the fact some guy just swung a freaking scale at Aquamarine, and some freaking Eternal just went after Jet. What was it about Jet that invited all the issues? He hadn't even bothered to pay attention to the other senshi in bandages that zipped in and... well.
The impact of her fist against his skull did nicely to jostle him, falling back against the wall before he tried to shove her (Sadchbia) away from him. "Count yourself lucky you only went after me," he snarled, before moving to try and land a punch against the Eternal attacking Jet (Megrez). He didn't expect he'd do much against her, but if luck went his way he could maybe pull her attention from Jet onto him. As for the one going after Aquamarine... that was going to be his next target, though he had a tad more faith Aqua wouldn't blunder his way through a fight. Doing that would likely result in him getting dirty after all. Jet he knew to expect to take all the stupid moves.
And then there was another in between him and his intended target, the newly arrived Lieutenant the one to feel his claws as he interposed himself in front of the brown-haired Lieutenant that he had been aiming for.
His swipe hadn't been a strong one and he ended up sailing in the direction of the floor as the new Lieutenant shook him off.
It wasn't a control floor sail, but he landed on his paws - not that that was particularly unexpected - he was a cat after all and even though the other two Lieutenants had both gotten hits in (well make that a kick in the case of the brown-haired nasty one that had been directly threatening the eternal's star seed) they hadn't hurt that much.
He turned in time to see the new Lieutenant move to strike at the eternal and thus add himself right up there on his nasty list with the brown-haired Lieutenant haunches tensing as he tried to spring up and in between the wooden sword things descending on the eternal with an angry yowl that was part pain as one of the things hit his side with a stinging thwack.
He turned, not as fast as he would have liked, turning angry purplish eyes on the new Lieutenant and hissed at him.
And then a fourth Lieutenant turned up.
It was a lot of Lieutenants, but it was okay Liryn was totally willing to face off against them all if he had to even if it meant having to rely on the kitty beam.
The eternal was telling him to escape and for a moment he looked at her, purplish eyes softening. "It's okay, I'll protect you" he told her seriously before looking back at the Lieutenants.
And then suddenly there were more people entering the room, the auras the warm ones of order even if the only one he recognised was the orange-haired super senshi.
Not that Liryn was going to let them do all the work as he tried to swipe out at the Lieutenant that had tried to strike out at the eternal with the wooden sword thing.

Athene had been relieved when his attack worked and trapped the General within their circle knowing that at least it would restrict his movements for a bit.
He wasn't expecting said General to call for back up, although he recognised the second General who turned up - well more like he recognised the arrows since he and a group of people had been shot at with a bunch of arrows earlier on that evening that looked remarkably similar to the ones that the General were carrying, the one that had taken the Lieutenant who had given them the last but one clue - the one that Liryn had said had had a cat with him.
The new General immediately went on the attack, shooting at both Ida and the Dark Mirror Eternal with her.
Back up came in the form of Thraen and a brown-haired senshi in white, blue and red -Thraen facing off against the General with the arrows whilst the brown-haired senshi chucked some sort of blade thing made of magic at the General held in his beads.
It was at the point that his magic ran its course, the beads glowing and shattering into harmless fragments of light that faded out and the trapped General made no hesitation in going after the senshi whilst the second once again shot at Ida and the Dark Mirror Eternal before Thraen managed to clothesline him.
Given that neither General had even remotely tried to target him, Athene was feeling a bit overlooked and annoyed by the creep that kept shooting at Ida.
Maybe it was the height difference, because it was quite possible that he was the shortest out of those gathered.
The brown-haired scout was aiding Ida and the Dark Mirror eternal, 3 on 1 and so Athene turned his attention on the archer that Thraen was facing off against, doing his best to swing at the man as he lunged in whilst hoping that that third arrow had managed to miss the captive senshi that the two General were blocking their way to, a chill running down his spine as he heard a scream coming from somewhere further in - one that abruptly cut off.

The stronger Chaos energies made her pause, even in her forming tunnel vision to find Valhalla. She knew what it meant, knew the danger, and really? The idea of beating the s**t out of someone right now sounded extremely good. But the Jupiter Knight told them to keep going, summoned his weapon, and Themiscyra had tensed to see a Captain going for the other Squire. Well. Till she saw the woman land an extremely impressive punch to the Captain's face.
Not an ounce of pity was spared for the Nega. She'd repeatedly mentioned she was looking for her child. Given how the woman had stopped to help Ganymede, had been so intent on finding her... Themiscyra was able to connect the dots. Meaning Valhalla was her son-in-law. Well then. She'd be more than happy to get his a** out of there while she helped her daughter escape. She barely glanced to the Mercury Squire, letting him make his own call if he was joining her or staying to help them against the Nega agents. Didn't offer a word before she took off, grateful for longer legs for an easier stride.
The hall that met her didn't seem very foreboding, nothing stood in her way. It didn't take much brain power to just keep charging ahead. Somewhere a head, she could the howl of a beast, and her blood ran cold, speeding up. ******** this place, ******** the Negaverse, and if any of them happened to die--
Themiscyra let out a strangled shriek as a rush of air caught her from below. Her feet caught on the floor in her sudden attempt to stop and the stumble landed her against the wall with a grunt more from her own realization of what was going on than any real damage. ********... hell. "....there's vents in the floor, watch out," she called to the Mercury Squire, assuming he was still following her. Or whomever else was there that might need the warning. Pushing herself off the wall, but oddly grateful for the drop back to the present. She could get pissed off once they found Val, got him out, and it would be amazing fuel while she kept looking for Kairatos and Hver. Till then?
She kept going, this time trying to be a tad more aware of her surroundings. Trying being the key word.
Megrez wasn't sure why she thought it would be a fair fight, with each lieutenant only attacking one of her team and vice versa. For some reason, she did, and it caught her off guard when two lieutenants swung to attack her. Jet's punch hit home, and she felt the knife sink into her cheek. Were there time for it, she would have just shrugged and wondered what another scar on her face would matter. Of course, there was no time for it, as Seraphinite landed a body blow that knocked the wind out of her and would certainly leave a bruise. "Three can play at this game," she wheezed as she tried to regain her breath. "Glitnir, Sadachbia, help." Sucking in a breath, he swung her first at Jet, hoping to clock him with a right hook.
"Crap!" Glitnir tried to dodge the plastic sword coming for his head, but it struck him square in the forehead, drawing some blood. He could see that two lieutenants had ganged up on Megrez, and she was going to be in some danger if the odds weren't evened quickly. Of the ones attacking Megrez, the one with the knives was probably the more dangerous, since the other one had just used his un-augmented fist. He moved to shove Aquamarine out of the way and swung his scales at Jet.
"Quit fighting dirty, you assholes!" If there was anything that ground Sadachbia's gears, it was an unfair fight. Since Megrez and Glitnir were going for the one with the knives, the solution was to go for the one she had attacked before. With a bit less finesse than before, she swung her fist at Seraphinite.

Yelping and diving for the floor again, Chariklo howled as a wild arrow plunged into the back of her knee. OhowgoddamnsonofaBITCH that ******** hurt! Twisting slightly, she ripped the arrow from her flesh and tore away another bit of overlay to tie around her knee.
Moving was going to be such a b***h, but if she could make the bandage tight enough... Working quickly, she kept one eye out for Ida and the other on the two unlikely allies that had popped up. She didn't know who the redhead in white and blue was, but she was deeply grateful to him. She was grateful to Thraen as well, even if her memories insisted that he was responsible for maiming Avacyn's throat. And while she didn't like to leave him alone to face the arrow shooting General, well. Thraen was a big boy. He could hold his own for a few minutes.
Gripping the still bloodied arrow tightly in her hand, Chariklo stood shakily and moved as quickly as her injured leg would allow for the first General. She had no real plan as such. Really, she was mostly improvising here. Still, there were a few highlights that she felt needed to be addressed:
1. Stab that ******** in the face 2. Keep Ida from dying 3. Rescue the chained senshi 4. ???? 5. Mother ******** profit
Okay, so maybe she did have a plan. And once she was close enough to the first General, she lunged, face set in a snarl and arrow swinging down to stab his tender flesh.
At the arrival of the Negaverse Agents, Alexandria backed up, stopping only long enough to spare at glance at Sessrumnir. "Don't get yourself killed. I'll be waiting ahead." Despite how little interaction he had actually had with the Knight of Jupiter, Alexandria knew full well that he could handle himself. He, along with Palatine would make sure Ganymede got the help she needed. The squire sprinted off as fast as he could in hopes he could reach Valhalla in time

hiiiiii sorry i lost Themi's post. GO GO TEAM....Fire and Ice? idk
"I am so overly tired of this place." Alexandria snapped, following Themi. "Don't worry about them." He said, seeing the look plastered on the woman's face. "He may be an a*****e but Sessrumnir know's what he's doing. Ganymede will be fine."
The startled shriek made him blink. "...Are you okay?" Well... this was an awkward line of defense. He took a few steps forward only for the vent to catch him, causing him to lurch in somewhat surprise and trip over his own two feet. "I don't know about you...." He said slowly. "But when everyone is out, I want this place burned to the ground." The squire grumbled as he pulled himself up off the floor. "Come on, we need to keep going."
