She was impressed at how fast Joshua could move. Not many people were able to dodge her attacks, even without her magic. Her lips curled in a snarl as she hounded her target. Rather than a single powerful blow, Beatrix began a high-speed barrage of punches. Her arms were a blur as she attempted to pummel Joshua. He dared to put his hands on her and dared to mock her. For this he must pay. [color=92278f]"You're gonna be seeing in two different ways when I'm through with you!"[/color]

A loud Legion's roar echoed over the Phoenix Wing guild hall. From over the trees swooped down the large beast, kicking up a powerful gust as it set down. Beatrix was mostly focused on Joshua but she spared a glance over her shoulder to see who just arrived. From atop the menacing looking creature, the infamous leader of the Edolas White Hydra jumped down. Her eyes locked with the Maddox that just arrived and she ceased her assault on Joshua.

If her fury hadn't been enough before, Beatrix grew visibly more angry. [color=92278f]"You!"[/color] she shouted before charging toward Edo-Maddox in a blur of motion. The well-built man raised an eyebrow as she drew near, watching unflinchingly as she leapt at him with a powerful kick. He remained motionless, standing firm as her boot nearly struck his face. Only at the last second did he rotate out of the way, letting her attack fly past. Before she could find herself behind Edo-Maddox, an elbow came down with incredible force, striking Beatrix in the solar plexus.

She let out a painful hacking sound as her body rocketed toward the ground with a powerful boom. She began to bring her arms across her midsection, having difficulty breathing, before a black boot planted itself on her throat and kept her pinned down. [color=red]"Now, this is a surprise,"[/color] Edo-Maddox spoke rather calmly, glancing over at Joshua and then at the guild hall. Beatrix tried to remove his foot but found he wouldn't budge.

Calmly and carefully, Edo-Maddox removed the long and thin box from his back and pressed the end of it against her midsection. As soon as it made contact, Beatrix let out a pained gasp and began writhing in pain. Odds are if she could breathe she would've screamed. After a second or two of contact he removed the box from her and strapped it on his back again. [color=red]"Now I understand what is going on here,"[/color] Edo-Maddox noted. His red eyes looked over to Joshua now. [color=red]"Is your master home?"[/color]
