[@Banana] "[Color=fdc68a]Xoxi! Wait, you can't just jump over there, you don't know if she's alone![/color]" When the portal was opened, Yuki wanted to tell Xoxi to wait and think it over, but she was overcome by the power of what was beyond it. She could feel Clariko beyond the portal, and was afraid that she'd walk through for her and Claire. It didn't help that she heard music begin to play.

Clariko braced herself for anything that came from it, but nothing happened. It was just open. Perhaps the one who summoned it was hesitating. In any case, it gave them a chance to see who was there. Of course, entering random portals that appeared out of nowhere was not the smartest idea, so Clariko decided to send in some scouts. She did a short, improvised dance, and sent thirteen lights, infused with certain elements and music, through the portal. They formed themselves into humanoid structures and walked forward. Some toward the skeleton, and others towards Xoxi. [center]Blood...[/center] The mist rushed past Tlevran just as he brought his head down. Though it smashed into the ground, it hadn't hit Miriam at all. Her body had gone with the mist, out of his grasp. She returned with a wild smile and her blade-bow in its bow form. She held the bow in front of her with her free hand behind it as if she had already let loose the arrow. She transformed the bow into its twin blade state, and charged at Tlevran again, a crazed look in her eyes. She began swinging at him with a flurry of slashes and cleaves. The mist followed close behind, dispersing and separating to surround the fighters. Every now and then, it'd release the arrows that Miriam had shot and held within the mist, focusing on attacking Tlevran.
