Lola watched Emiri from on top of the building, though as the wind picked up, she spotted Michel from a distance. She let out a low whistle, her legs swinging on the edge. Michel was getting serious, it seemed. She noticed her shadow stretching behind her, and from there Meli climbed up, shaking her head. "[b]Fucking Michel...can't even warn a bitch.[/b]" She muttered as she looked at Michel in the distance. She looked at her older sister, placing a hand on her hip. "[b]And what are you doing? Are you waiting for the girl to escape already?[/b]" "[b]Zodiark is taking over that guy.[/b]" Lola explained, lightly rubbing her shoulder. "[b]Boss is fighting him...I mean, I don't think Boss will have trouble, but...he's strong too.[/b]" Meli rolled her eyes, looking down at the still fighting Emiri. "[b]Don't you think that's exactly why you need to...oh I don't know...[i]fucking kill her already?![/i][/b]" She kicked Lola, causing the woman to stand. "[b]You've already fucked up once.[/b]" "[b]It's just this air...a lot of powerful people are fighting and it's throwing off my game.[/b]" Lola muttered, shivering slightly. "[b]But you're right...here I go.[/b]" As Emiri sliced through the last ninja, she let out an irritated huff. Where the hell was Lola? As if on cue, the woman touched the ground behind the brunette. Emiri turned towards her, sword at the ready. Lola raised an eyebrow at her, looking her up and down. "[b]Good job. Now I'm your opponent.[/b]" She stated, unsheathing her iaito. There was only a secon of hesitation before their blades clashed. --------- [i]Oh damn it.[/i] Grant didn't like the feeling of being thrown around like a ragdoll, especially in the sense that he could possibly crash into a building and die. He was not not a fan of wind in general, though for some strange reason he was glad at the least that his hair had been tied. More importantly, he was feeling somewhat nauseous. Everything was twisting and turning and he found that he much preferred that his feet be on the ground. He turned his body, looking around for Wesley. He spotted him not too far off, though he realized he was on a crash course with him. Sticking out his arm, he tried to grab onto him and it was only by purest luck that he managed to grab the prince. "[b]Gravity![/b]" He called, a light purple surrounding them. The spell froze them in the air, no longer being forced by the winds. They began to descend, and after a moment they touched the ground. Michel's abilities were strong, and even though they managed to be on the ground, Grant still kept his spell activated, lest they get swept up again. He looked at Wesley, still holding his arm. "[b]Now what?[/b]" He asked as the tornado whirled around them. "[b]This one is just a little too big for my magic.[/b]" --------- Meanwhile not too far away, Nadeline definitely noticed the tornado. She definitely noticed the clones blown away. She definitely noticed Mateus disappearing. She definitely noticed that instead of having both feet on the ground she was now spiraling around. Boy oh boy did she notice that. Her heels were meant to walk on the ground and lengthen her legs, not be tossed around like this. The princess managed to grab onto a nearby telephone pole, clinging onto it for dear life, though she was pretty sure that either it would get ripped from the ground or her grip would loosen. "[b]I was not aware he was so powerful![/b]" Nadeline exclaimed. "[b]How could we possibly hope to combat a tornado?![/b]" --------- Zodiark was definitely grappling a hold over Jaakuna. Most people would be concerned, but Shion was secretly somewhat thankful. Now she wouldn't feel as bad killing him, and as the battle went on her conscience got quieter and quieter. Now she would feel no remorse when she killed him. She had no need to underestimate him; his desires would only prove to be his own downfall. As the tendrils sprang up around her, she closed her eyes and posed herself. Her sword was drawn back. One second, two seconds, and then the third. She whipped her sword in a horizontal line, and for a moment it appeared as if the tendrils had frozen. After three more seconds passed, a white glow overcame and overwhelmed them, causing them to fizzle out. Another rose petal faded. The remaining ones glowed and a few of them sank to the ground. From the fallen ones seeds could be seem blossoming into more blue roses. The three petals that had faded appeared in her hair once more, forming a tiny little flower. She began walking towards Jaakuna, passing one rose. She cut off its head, the petals scattering. They turned white and gathered around her blade, forming several circles around the katana. "[b]You haven't seen anything yet.[/b]" She informed him. "[b]The more you dig into Zodiark's power, the more you assure my victory.[/b]" She went in for the direct attack again, though her blade was stronger this time. As she did her familiar aerial strike, she brought her blade down. As contact would be made, a rather brilliant light would erupt. The many circles around her sword would then surround their pair, swirling around them. The light may not have appeared to be much, but in actuality it was a purification technique. She knew if Zodiark didn't want to get expelled from Jaakuna's body, he would make Jaakuna draw on more of his power. She was counting on it. She locked eyes with Jaakuna, amber on emerald.
