"Owwhhh... owwhhhh... " Adrianne groaned pitifully from where she lay deep within the bushes, before eventually beginning a slow struggle to try to sit up straight in the shrubbery of the gardens surrounding the mansion walls.

[i]"THat hurt... a lot."[/i]

...

[i]" ... and my dress is forever ruined."[/i]

"[b]Move that Vehicle to the front, make sure to cover the whole entrance![/b]"

But Adrianne would not have much time to mourn the loss of her dress which at that point was torn and shredded in multiple places, as soon she heard the authoritarian voice of a man shouting from somewhere further away, followed by a deep grinding sound and the noise created by a powerful engine revving into life.

"Uh, what?" Adrianne muttered to herself as she eventually peeked out from the bush where she was sitting, only to see a blue Chimera tank rolling up towards the front yard of the mansion, with a group of six house guards dressed in blue and yellow regal uniforms and silver trimmed ornate carapace armor and gas masks. The Chimera had a plated Multi-las turret mounted on top, controlled by one of the House Guards sitting in the hatch behind it. He was currently watching the front of the mansion, which was lit up by powerful spotlights mounted on the front of the Chimera!

At the same time, she could hear the noise of jet engines, and when she raised her head to look up, she could see a chrome plated Valkyrie hovering above the mansion; sporting one multi-las turret below the nose, a heavy bolter on each side of it crewed by two soldiers dressed in gray fatigues, and at least six different rocket pods beneath its wings; all aimed at the building as it circled around it. Painted on the side of the Valkyrie, Adrianne could see the image of a black hawk.

"This is Inquisitor Zhevon, I was trapped in the basement for a moment, I'm out now. Regroup at the DZ?"

"Uhhh, guys." Adrianne activated her comms to respond.
"I think we're in trouble... "

As Lilith and Aviza moved through the mansion with their two prisoners, an unnatural howl could suddenly be heard from above as a series of shadowy missiles emerged from the corner of the view, as six Doombolts smashed into the ground in front of them, shattering the marble floor and leaving heavy chunks of the walls in ruins as nothing but debris and black, mystical smoke remained from where they had landed!

Only moments after they had detonated, a haunting purple light would emerge from within the dark mist as a portal was opened up in front of them, and a black power armored woman walked out through it.

"I hope I am not too late for the party." Sounded the familiar voice of Lucia as the Euphorian stepped through the black mist and walked in front of Aviza and Lilith. 

The pale skinned woman grinned at Aviza and Lilith through her purple hair. Her fanciful warped black power armor seemed to exhume shadows constantly, almost shrouding the euphorian in a magical layer of warp mist. Flowing down from her back would be a cape made of living, twiching tendrils that occasionally rattled about, and in each of her hands, she held an elegant, serrated daemonblade richly decorated with blasphemous markings.

Perhaps the most unnerving part of the Euphorian was not her unnatural armor or imposing height of seven feet, but the cursed medallian that she had embedded in her breastplate that carried a living, twitching eye that rapidly looked around, similar to the amulet found previously by Zhevon.

Merely looking in the direction of the eye would create a rattling sound from inside of their heads, as if their skulls were being scratched from something on the inside; a migraine that seemed to build up as a chorus of tiny voices began screaming louder and louder.

"I have been waiting for this moment." Lucia said, looking menacingly at Aviza.

"Rivian, close the portal, and let's entertain our guests... "

As Lucia said that, the purple portal behind her would close, leaving only them in the room. Crossing her blades, her grin only grew in size.
