The raven-haired Aberration was so focused on blasting the mechanical hound in front of her that when the purplish arm dragged her to the center of the group, she was knocked from her feet and abruptly met the soil face first. She lied there for just about a minute, dazed and confused as to what had just happened. Opening her eyes and slowly shaking off the haze, she knelt amidst a pile of half-disintegrated debris; trashed remnants of her own gear. Having been hit sideways by Hazel’s arm, everything that hadn’t been covered by Wishalloy on her left side was disintegrated or damaged. That included her belt, part of the rifle hanging on her back, the radio and the left side of her unprotected clothing, which was mostly half of her military uniform and some parts of the clothing underneath. Scattered on the ground at Angel’s feet were the pepper spray, the combat knife, half of the disintegrated rifle, the intact shotgun that had left the woman’s hands during her daze and the useless disintegrated helmet that had fallen off her head. As for the clothing, her left shoulder was now completely bare, as well as her left hand and – to her greatest shame – her entire left hip, waist, butt cheek and a clear line of her upper pelvic area was now exposed. Feeling the sudden cool breeze of an autumn’s evening, Angélique’s face blushed just as red as the day she had been caught wandering practically naked in a hotel in a drunken haze. Piecing the puzzle pieces together, the Mage realized it must’ve been Hazel who had hit her, or at least grabbed her violently to bring the singer closer to the wild Aberration. Unaware that Hazel had in fact saved them from being sliced to ribbons by the webbing of wires from the clockwork spider, Angel swiftly got up to her feet, one hand covering her exposed ass cheek and the other hiding her uncomfortably unearthed inner thigh and pelvis, Angel shot up the meanest glare she ever did before at Hazel. [color=9e0039]“WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING!? KEEP YOUR GODDAMNED HANDS ON THE ENEMY!” [/color] Angélique yelled, her composure practically snapped from all the stress this fight was giving her and now the humiliation inflicted to her by Hazel. If this was the ridiculously out-of-place geared girl’s idea of revenge for having been thrown off her perch, she damn well succeeded at pissing Angel off. She hadn’t been the only one to suffer from this kind of humiliation though. Siena had also been knocked off her feet; evidence of Hazel’s doing as parts of the brunette’s clothing were disintegrated as well. A hint of worry had crept up on Angel’s face, not completely dismissing the scowl etched on her face. The poor girl had thrown off to the ground by a hound just a few minutes ago, to be then done in like that again by a teammate. [i][color=f7976a]That girl is a danger to your group’s survival! To YOUR survival. She must be dealt with swiftly![/color][/i] [color=9e0039]“Siena, are you alright?”[/color] Angel echoed Brent’s words, equally worried about the Arbiter’s well-being as the Aberration knelt beside Siena to check up on her. [i][color=f7976a]If you don’t kill her now, you will be the one to die for her foolishness![/color][/i] As much as Hazel proved to be a huge liability so far, she was also the most efficient fighter of her group. Would they have made it that far without her powers? Also, she was a classmate, someone she had internally vowed of keeping safe and bring back alive from this mission. She couldn't just bring herself to scream the girl down and feed her to the clockworks, could she? Shifting her gaze from Siena to her surroundings, Angel just realized how truly fucked her group was now. Despite being slowed down by Emma’s Devotion, the clockwork army was now closely circling all around them. Centipedes were surely going to try and crush the group as they would tighten their formation, and the spiders provided a barrier than none could pass and would slice everyone up as they drew closer as well. Rage bubbled inside Angélique once more, this time far more intense than how she felt before during this fight. The feeling of being humiliated this way by a teammate and the powerlessness caused by her inability to destroy a monster all by herself like every other members of her team could, she couldn’t bear it anymore. For the moment, her mind was consumed in a veil of hatred. Screw strategy. Screw tactics. Fuck trying to come up with plans. Most of all, fuck the others not listening to her. Deep inside, there was a darker intent rising to the surface. [color=f7976a][i]Reclaim your superiority! Don’t let those lowly dogs stand in the path of your righteousness![/i][/color] Mustering the faintest hint of compassion left in her from the colliding darkness, Angélique turned away to face a direction where she would hit none of her teammates; a direction no one would get in her way. Then, the infuriated Aberration released a barrage of unbridled broad sonic waves, aiming at nothing in particular but annihilating the northern formation of centipede and spiders circling around them right in front of the direction she was facing.
