Hearing the sound of a gunshot ring out from the other side of the restaurant and seeing a bullet plant itself into a wall a few yards away, Eddie whirled around, pulling her gun away from its position aimed at the door and pointing it in the direction from which the shot had come from. To her annoyance, Eddie saw no one. She was about to go investigate further when the metal man called out, seemingly to the shooter, informing them of Eddie's lack of affiliation with the Erubescan people. 

Eddie filed the fact that the metal man was working with at least one more person, one with a gun, away in her mind for later, in case their alliance goes south after the Erubescan threat gets taken care of, despite the fact that the person appeared to be a terrible shot. 

[b][color=a36209]"It don't matter one bit if she heard-"[/color][/b] Eddie began in an impatient tone as she turned herself back to the man, cutting herself off as she watched his shiny metallic body collide with the old walls of the place, opening up a hole to the outside world. More importantly, however, he seemed to have made contact with the Knight, knocking her back a ways, leaving her bare and without cover. Right in Eddie's sights.

Eddie took note of the energy that swirled around the Knight's hands. It seemed as though she was focusing her Gift, getting ready for a powerful attack. However, it appeared to render her defenseless enough for Eddie to make a move. Not wanting to kill the Knight who was bound to have useful information, Eddie aimed for the enemy's left kneecap and pulled the trigger, launching a bullet through the air and into the target, right before a giant blast blew outwards with the Knight at its center.

[color=a36209][b]"Shit!"[/b][/color] Eddie shouted, making a run for the window from which she had entered, planning to gracefully hop over it and use the wall as cover. The result was anything but graceful. Just as she reached the window, the explosion caught up with her, propelling her into the waist-high wall below the window, sending her out in a clumsy front flip, ending with her face smashing into the outside of the wall, sounding a loud [i]CRACK[/i] as she slid down the wall, toppling over to lay flat on her back.

It didn't take long for Gwen to end up on the scene, standing over the hunched over Eddie, whose hand was on her nose. The horse nudged the woman with her hoof, causing her to look up.

[color=a36209][b]"I think the bitch broke my nose!"[/b][/color] she shouted, the anger evident in her voice. [color=a36209][b]"The fuckin' bitch broke my nose!"[/b][/color] 

[color=brown][b][i]Jesus, you're a pussy. It'll heal in a couple weeks. Now, why don't we go get that Eurobescan piece of shit.[/i][/b][/color] read the words that appeared on the mare's broad chest. The horse got into a kneeling position, signalling for her partner to climb aboard. 

[color=a36209][b]"Yeah yeah, I'm goin',"[/b][/color] she replied, pulling herself onto the animal. Its wings stretched out and began flapping, taking the two into the air. Gwen's fur quickly changed to match the color of the gray skies. While she circled the skies for a few moments, Eddie made sure her bright red octagonal shield was tightly fastened to her left arm, before reaching down to her lower leg and pulling a large hunting knife out of its sheath. She peered over the side of her equine friend, waiting patiently until they were both right above the Knight to drop off the side, plummeting at a fast speed toward the warrior, knife outstretched.
