Victory was achieved. The Negari slowly started to return to that black, primordial ooze that all Negari seemed to composed of, dripping into an extremely large puddle. The other girls seemed pretty happy, not to mention she met the FREAKING RIPPER!! Wait until the guys on the forums hear about this! Ogata seemed a little sour, probably because she hated so much mana being used at once. The again, it was just a single Negari, and she still had 80% of her mana left! All in all, she was pretty mana-efficient considering she only restrained the Negari during the fight. Shiina quickly dismissed the thought, however - Why would she need to worry about her mana? She planned to say good bye soon and head home for the night, but before she could utter out the phrase, the puddle seemed to... move. Before she could react, it quickly began to reform itself, thin and vestigial legs sprouting out of the liquid to drag it's torso out. Immediately, Shiina slammed two of her ribbons onto the gel and spread them as wide as she could, trying to keep the thing from tearing itself out and attacking them. Immediately afterwards, she started to attack the legs with the third ribbon, trying to make them lose their grip and escape slower. It was only after managing to take down two legs that she realized how many Negari had truly appeared - There had to be at least dozens... Luckily, Ripper was able to take care of the smaller Negari with ease, simply slamming into them with her knife to kill them. It wasn't until she noticed that there were others near Ripper that she realized... Holy shit, those are civilians! Shiina immediately stopped attacking the legs, sending ribbon number three closer to the group. It wasn't until she was halfawy there that she realized it - She was only able to make it halfway... Shiina proceeded to jog her way over to the group, allowing the 1st and 2nd ribbon to stretch to their maximum lengths before she stopped. All the Negari seemded occupied trying to attck Ripper and Aegis, so Shiina sent out her 3rd ribbon, and saw that she was just barely able to reach them. Relief spread through her, only to be sucked away when she saw two of the dinosaur looking Negari bite into Aegis' shoulder. The scream she elicited was worse than anything she ever heard - it was a human scream, not a Negari's. She sent debris flying in different directions, before kicking one of the Negari coming towards her with her foot, sending it flying. The third ribbon raced over to her only to be beaten - A blond woman wearing a red kimono that Shiina wasn't focusing on picked her up by the collar, before yelling something about not crying. What the hell did she expect! Aegis was bleeding super hard! Shiina gently wrapped the ribbon around the small girl and moving her next to Shiina, then the red-haired school girl, before finally grabbing Aegis as well, who was still being held onto by the red kimono chick. Shiina angrily yelled. [color=f49ac2]"Don't yell at my friend! And let go of her before she bleeds out!"[/color] Shiina quickly realized she wasn't paying attention to the larger Negari, and slammed her ribbons down once to make sure it was easier to restrain. At least Midori seemed to be trying to help Aegis, Shiina watching as she raced over to help. As a dinosaur Negari raced over to Shiina and the civilians, she briefly took ribbon 2 and smacked the dinosaur, before moving it back to restrain the large Negari. To her horror, one of the legs had managed to start pushing again, and all the Negari's eyes were on her. She had all her ribbons busy, and if a Negari attacked her right now, she could die... Shiina simply resorted to praying, hoping that her third ribbon would be free soon so she could knock out some of the big Negari's legs and protect the civilians and injured Aegis. Remembering her, Aegis called out. [color=f49ac2]"Aegis-Chan! Are you hurt bad!? Holy crap that's more blood than I thought... J-just stay with me, I'll make sure you don't get hurt anymore!"[/color] Her voice was quivering as she said this. Shiina was actually terrified. There were more Negari here, on this street, than all the other Negari she had fought since becoming a magical girl. Hell, most of them were tougher than any Negari she had faced before as well. All Shiina could do was what she did best - put on a brave face, pretend everything would be alright, and try her hardest to make it work. She moved the young girl behind her, and did her best to move the third ribbon to her as quickly as possible. Shiina was so worried, she didn't even register the pulse of energy that exuded from Rippers direction, the energy of a beacon being established. All she needed was the third ribbon... Then she would wrap them all up and move them on top of a building or somewhere that was safe... Shiina barely saw the white haired woman clad in armor, simply happy to have extra help taking our these Negari. [@TheHangedMan][@Mercurial][@shagranoz][@Feyblue][@Raineh Daze][@VitaVitaAR]
