[h3][color=fdc68a]Laila Durrani[/color][/h3] This was proving to be the worst day ever. Laila had been expecting to be bored stupid during this festival, aside from Laz's promised diversion, but she definitely hadn't desired the level of excitement that erupted. Between the weird singing and the worsening weather, the event was already building up to be decidedly creepy. The worst came when the demons started springing out from nowhere and murdering people. Laila had no love for the Libros, but even she felt sick to her stomach when the Deacon got butchered like that. In the chaos that erupted, Laila sight of the others for a time, but when she managed to look past the fleeing crowds, she noticed Laz was right in the midst of the demons. Even though she imagined Laz was better equipped to fight demons than she was, she still resolved to get over there and help him out. She started rushing over, only to be confronted by a few demons herself. Unleashing a stream of sand, she entrapped the lot of them before waving her hand, crushing them all within their new sandy tomb. Laila was somewhat surprised these creatures went down so easily, but she was hardly about to complain. Closing the gap between her and Laz, she unleashed a Sand Slash attack to thin out the numbers near him. [color=fdc68a]"Don't worry, Laz, I've got your back!"[/color] She called out to him before readying more sand attacks. She wasn't sure just how much work she was going to need to do to thin out these hordes, but she was damn determined to empty her whole arsenal on them. [@Raijinslayer]
