[quote=Caits] "Phoenix Blast!" Penny wasn't too sure if she caused the ash or not because of her flames, but she didn't stop to dwell on that, as she tried to stop the woman from summoning a spirit. How long had she had that staff? was that how she was bringing the demons forth? Fire blossomed in front of her, and she pushed it forward without much of a thought, towards the woman. She followed up with "Phoenix Swirl!" and fire twirled around the woman, hearing the running footsteps of someone approaching. Was it an enemy, or the phoenix wing member? She didn't know, so she would have to finish this quickly.Two spirits formed, hard and evil, and Penny cursed, stepping back, watching and waiting, trying to figure out how she could fight these, and watch th woman, stop the woman from fleeing, and she wrapped herself in flames, if only to help defend herself. The spirits appeared small, but they radiated power and she shuddered, wondering if she had gotten hrself in deep trouble here. "Uh. I could use some help" [/quote] "Ash God's Flying Fang!" Suddenly flying past Penny were two arcs of black ashes with a purplish at the two evil spirits, meeting their mark. When the arcs hit them, the demons were sent flying back smashing into the wall behind them though it wouldn't be enough to take them down just yet. Nolan had just rushed into the room, his sword Kaso in hand as he prepared himself for a counter attack. That's when he noticed that the masked woman was holding a staff and then back at the spirits he attacked. Now he just understood that this woman was responsible for stealing the staff and that the reason why that the old man wanted the staff was because of its power to summon spirits. His cold eyes glanced at Penny and deduced that she was the one who made his job even more difficult. "You...keep your distance from me. I'll handle the spirits, you can have your prey but don't break that staff. That'll render me being here pointless."
