Before Trixie could give chase however, she suddenly found herself knocked back onto the ground. Whatever had crashed on top of her wasn't all that heavy, but that didn't mean there wasn't any pain. Trixie yelped out, nearly dropping her guns, but clung onto them tightly. Too many times had something unaware caused her to become disarmed - she'd probably have to start gluing them to her hands at this rate. She wriggled from underneath the half-body, and met with difficulty as the legs fought to keep her pinned down. Thanks to Trixie's tiny stature though, she managed to squirm into a cranny beneath Poppy's booty and fling herself out. She couldn't stand herself up right away though, as the pain that came with having one's back squashed had all but subsided. But at least she got that weird gal in her sights now...! Wait that was just a pair of legs though. What? So that means the rest of her was still roamin' around out there! Trixie aimed her guns at the legs as they stood themselves up, ready to unleash a barrage of bullets! Until she heard Xandra crying out. Trixie was too submerged within the fog to see her partner or the laser beams, but she could only guess what direction they were in. Xandra needed her help - and she needed Xandra's just as much. "Yaaaa!" Trixie called aloud, her voice trumping all the other sounds in the area. As the legs made their way towards Trixie again, she quickly flung a bomb in its direction: a little mechanical potato-shaped critter named Yam. And it burst on the legs upon impact - not a genuine explosion, but rather a [i]splat![/i] that blanketed Poppy's wandering limbs in a thick stuffing-like substance. This was meant to weigh down whoever it landed on and, Trixie hoped, keep them glued to their spot temporarily while she got the upperhand. Which was make more noises by firing rounds and giving her spot away within the smoke. She dashed away from the legs, but was still in their range. With Stevie's decline, Lily stood out as the tallest thing in range. And Trixie didn't hesitate to fire her guns at the watchdog's face as best as she could. A few stray bullets pelted her visor here and there, leaving negligible dents - which was more than enough to catch her attention. Lily began firing lasers at Trixie's location at once. The agile prankster jumped out of the way with ease and continued her rapidfire. She could only hope this gave Xandra enough time to recover. --- [img=http://i.imgur.com/Wa1ZH6m.png] [b][u]Phillis Circus: Outside the Big Top[/b][/u] [i]"Wait, stop!"[/i] Lute cried out as both boys stumbled. Cammie hesitated upon the virtuoso's command, and in an instant, Lute was charging off after the other animals. After the collapsing tents. After the screaming citizens. He wasn't going back inside after all, which left Cammie sighing in relief, but... He bit his lips. This was going wrong, so so wrong. All because that brat decided to set their stage aflame. Why on earth would he do such a thing? What could possibly be his motivation? Oh, he was too contemplative for his own good; Cammie gave chase after Lute - not to chase [i]him[/i] down, but rather to get to the animals as well. [img=http://i.imgur.com/rxPNBnW.png] This left Sammie raging even more. "What do you think you're doing!?" Whether that was directed to Cammie, Lute, or both was unclear; before Sammie could follow up, she was suddenly swept into the sky...! [i]"Hey honey! You okay, boo?"[/i] "You... fucking... dumbass!!"

"He's getting away! [i]You're letting him get away!![/i] Ugh, Magis have mercy on your soul cuz I sure as hell won't!!" [img=http://i.imgur.com/jlkbrGO.png] With no one to ride or guide her, Elena the elephant was left alone. With a huff, she merely glanced around her surroundings. Her animal friends fought among an outsider, scaring off citizens who had no place to run. Two other guilders were in the distance as well, with tents nearby them going up in flames. The circus' own Cammie was also running after another citizen that was standing before her moments ago. Elena too stampeded after the animals. Closing in after both Cammie and Lute. [img=http://i.imgur.com/Wa1ZH6m.png] The magician quickly took notice of this and - "Watch out!" - pounced on Lute, knocking both boys out of harm's way as Elena pressed onwards, stomping with her mighty feet. They would've been shredded in an instant. Cammie grunted before pushing himself off the virtuoso and pressing onwards after Elena. The animalistic fight was getting out of control, and these stupid people were going to get themselves hurt! He rushed to the screaming citizens nearest him and snatched them by the collars - "This way, you dumbasses!" - and dragged them aside. They stumbled over one another as they began to run, but thankfully they began making their way to the exits. As opposed to trailing after Lute, Cammie moved on to help anyone else he could reach. Elena, in the meantime, reached the battle brewing between the three animals. More snarling, pouncing, and clawing ensued between the three. As Lucien's raging bear slid away from Lidya and Olga, she crashed right into Elena's leg. And before it could lunge again at the two girls, it found its body tightly wrapped and lifted in Elena's trunk. Lucien's bear was in too much of an enraged state to strategically knock itself out of Elena's grasp. Instead it writhed and roared and viciously clawed at the air in all its futility.
