Suppose there's no acounting for taste..."[/color] As he spoke, he picked up one half of the spear that Rose had split in half, taking a defensive position. [COLOR=GREENYELLOW]"Oh you girls better pray - since when I am through with ye, your be begging for mercy,"[/COLOR] spoke Lizard, cracking her fists which made a loud crack, like she was cracking wood here. [color=0072bc]"No killing. Take this,"[/color] Question said, picking up the other half of the broken spear and tossing it to Lizard. [color=0072bc]"Use it instead of claws."[/color] Lizard looked at the broken spear, before whispering back to Question. [COLOR=GREENYELLOW]"Yeah...I think I might smash this twig on the first, amazon -wannabe. Any otha' ideas? That likel'y won' end with them, in da' morgue?"[/COLOR] replied Lizard. [color=0072bc]"First, use half of spear to hit one in neck. Hold back strength; don't need her dying. If that doesn't take her out of fight, a punch to the solar plexus should. Myself and others should be able to deal with rest."[/color] Question replied. [COLOR=GREENYELLOW]"Okay...but well, what if more arrive? What then?"[/COLOR] she replied, keeping her eyes and other senses all trained on their surrounding enemies. They wouldn't be this open, unless they had an advantage. Her pa had taught her, that if' a 'gator was playing possum - 'then he som'thing was wrong or he was baiting. [color=0072bc]"Will cross that bridge when we come to it... Now go."[/color] With that, Question chucked his half of the spear at one of the women, running forward to deliver a cross punch to her face shortly afterwards. [color=0072bc][i]'First, distract target. Will be confused by sudden quote unquote "attack". Next, charge. Throw fist forward, connect with jaw. If not knocked out, will be soon.'[/i][/color] [COLOR=DARKORANGE][B]"I don't mean to be a [i]damn'[/i] buzzkill."[/B][/COLOR] Rose yelled as she locked a spear with one of her blades before swinging with the energy sword in her opposite hand. [COLOR=DARKORANGE][B]"But this man is still going to [i]fuckin'[/i] die unless we get him help."[/B][/COLOR] With a kick to the other woman's diaphragm, Rose staggered one of Lion-Mane's brides before running her through with the energy weapon. The taser discharge shocked the other woman as she fell to her knees, shaking in pain from the weapon, her joints locking up from the electrical charge. [COLOR=DARKORANGE][B]"Lizard, get him the [i]fuck[/i] out of here!"[/B][/COLOR] Rose roared, trying to communicate to the alligator girl past Jessica's predatory instincts. Drawing her pistols, Rose loaded tranquilizer rounds as she began to open fire, attempting to cover the Lizard in order to draw her a free path to the guard. Much of a path wasn't required, as Lizard easily smacked the first whom got in her with the broken spear...and as expected it broke. Before she simply charged through the others and to the guard. Easily picking him up in her arms. [COLOR=GREENYELLOW]"You guys coming?"[/COLOR] She used her tail to smack and hold back any of the tiger-brides from killing their man. As it was tough enough to hit with the force of a whip. The previously smacked woman attempted to attack Lizard once more as she moved in to protect the guard. The vine wrapped around her legs made that a rather challenging task, as The Warden dragged her towards him. [color=007236]"No."[/COLOR] he said, as he smacked her in the head with the force usually required to knock out a person. Backflipping off a wall, Rose swapped out her tranquilizers for live ammunition as she quickly realized that these women were immune to the paralytics. [COLOR=DARKORANGE][B]"Knees and elbows then."[/B][/COLOR] She muttered with a land before answering Lizard's question. [COLOR=DARKORANGE][B]"You go on ahead."[/B][/COLOR] Rose shouted as she landed a shot against the first bride, the woman screaming in pain as she cursed Rose in a dialect that was unfamilier with. [COLOR=DARKORANGE][B]"We'll hold these three off and continue the mission."[/B][/COLOR] Rose added delivering another bullet to the woman, this time to her knee cap. The bride screeched further as the other two turned, noticing Rose's firearms as they hissed. [COLOR=SILVER][B]"You fight with no honor."[/B][/COLOR] [COLOR=DARKORANGE][B]"Oh [i]bitch[/i] please,"[/B][/COLOR] Rose said dismissively leveling a gun at both of them. [COLOR=DARKORANGE][B]"You ambushed us as I recall."[/B][/COLOR] [COLOR=SILVER][B]"A trap is still more honorable than the mechanisms of man."[/B][/COLOR] [COLOR=DARKORANGE][B]"Says the woman who commits [I]fuckin'[/i] beastiality on a daily basis."[/B][/COLOR] Rose retorted looking towards her teammates. [COLOR=DARKORANGE][B]"I think I can hold off the rest of the harem if you two go ahead. Q, take Warden, we don't know where Lion-Mane is hiding."[/B][/COLOR] [COLOR=SILVER][B]"Husband seeks a treasure whose worth surpasses anything your mind can entertain little harlot."[/B][/COLOR] One of the brides sneered as Rose rolled her eyes. [COLOR=DARKORANGE][B]"Check the warehouse!"[/B][/COLOR] She called to the other two Leaguers. Question broke into a sprint, heading for the warehouse, looking over his shoulder and shouting to Warden: [color=0072bc]"Come on!"[/color] The Warden was rather unhappy; hitting his target once didn't work, but the second, harder smack definitely did. [i]No challenge,[/i] he thinks as he frowns, then looks for whatever else he could do to help. The man in the fancy clothes yelled at him to follow, and Warden quickly vaulted himself forewards with his vines until he was in step with the Question, sprinting alongside him, ready for the next challenge. Lizard easily lifted up the security guard in her arms, as she quickly bolted out of the museum. Albeit, one problem being was - that she was in the middle of a city, that she didn't know anything about. Luckily, Jessica had some brain between her ears - as she likely did, what anybody else would do, in a situation with alot of people and a wounded person. Namely Lizard quickly asked for aid, from the party people in the area - getting directions to the nearest medical tent. With a party and celebration this big, there would most likely be medical or atleast police personnel nearby to offer aid to people - incase somebody was injured or causing trouble.[/INDENT][/INDENT]
