The sounds of the town raged around him but he only listened to the sounds around him. Not their words, he only listened for the sound of conflict. So when he heard a stifled surprised exclamation, he became aware of a large purple tentacle thing grabbing one of his teammates. Or rather, grabbing the air in the direction of one of their teammates. He wasn't honestly sure what the thing was doing, but it certainly wasn't wholesome.
[b]"Right, why don't you think about that yourself for a moment."[/b] Tony told Feon. [b]"I have somewhere to be."[/b]

Tony ran towards the flying tentacled monstrosity. Losing a teammate this early wouldn't exactly be ideal. He wasn't sure Leila would need his help. She looked unconscious but she'd gone down quickly so either the girl was weaker than she looked or she was pretending. Regardless, she'd dropped her sword and even if she got free, she'd need time to pick it up. And time was a precious resource.

Lo and behold she did recover, but she was flat on her back - and that wouldn't fly with enemies around. As the girl got up, Tony circled around her and put himself between her and the tentacled creature. Tony raised his shield fully against the creature, axe at the ready. It was more on instinct than anything else, and he knew it probably wouldn't help much.
[b]"Keep moving, soldier!"[/b] He barked at Leila. [b]"This isn't over yet!"[/b]
