Make your choice quickly though, market's about to close.'[/b][/color] Whatever was going on outside had intensified rapidly, leaving Pyotr more and more concerned for those who already dove out. After finalising the deal, she and Jax crept up to the door to peek out yonder and what Pyotr saw scared the living daylights out of her. As Jax pushed past to dive into the melee, she stood transfixed in shock as swarms of mobs heaved around the village. All entrances looked to be cut off and those caught outside the safe zone were stranded, pinned against an invisible wall by the mass of monsters. The others had already sallied forth to help, with Umichi pulling a characteristic one-man suicide charge. Suki seemed to have her head on straighter though, passing teleport crystals through the barrier to the beleaguered players. Pyotr had to act, though for a long moment she couldn't decide which way would be best... A scream to her left jogged her enough to bring Pyotr's mind back to reality. A pair of women were caught alone, surrounded against the edge of the town, their HP bars nearing the red zone. She ran, unsheathing her blade as the did. Frantic thoughts bounded through her mind, ideas ranging from rushing headlong into the throng to copycatting Suki. In the end, she went with the former. Screaming wordlessly, Pyotr passed through the safe zone barrier, swinging her sabre in a wide green arc to decapitate a pair of boars. The two players rallied briefly, long enough for them to form a steady defence as Pyotr swung left and right in increasingly panicked attacks. She didn't have time to focus on them though, as another wave of mobs leapt up into her face. As she ducked and weaved, only one selfish, cynical little thought crept into her mind. [i]If those two don't help me back, I'll fucking kill 'em...[/i] After furiously slashing her way through another pack, Pyotr had a moment of respite to glance back at where the two players where... only to find the space unoccupied. They suddenly appeared a second later... inside the safe zone. Indigent rage boiled up within her and Pyotr screamed a long stream of profanities in their direction as another pack of wolves descended upon her.
