~ [i]Boiling Point[/i] ~[/center]

Reactively, in the face of the steel hurricane that suddenly began to swirl around her foe, Thalia swung her blade into the steel. As it struck, she released her explosive energy, and used the blast to fling herself backwards against the building, which she gripped onto, hanging from a ledge as Elroy took the Boulder head on.

However, before she could act further, more dark zones expanded around him, and the other combatants, much to the Kitsune's frustration. How could she fight them if she couldn't even see them?! As she lamented in her head, attempting to figure out what was going on in the darkness, a thought came to her.

Channeling her magic, Thalia quickly enacted her plan. She was of the Beast Specialisation. Body enhancements were a piece of cake. It didn't take long for her to increase the sensitivity and effectiveness of her hearing a considerable amount. If she couldn't see the fight with her eyes, she'd just have to see the fight with her ears.

Except she took too long enhancing herself to realise what was happening. She heard the crack of the rifle and turned her head at its origin, and to where it had fired to. Exactly where Penny was standing, by the sound of the impact. Then she heard the sound of metal being ripped apart, and a bloodcurdling scream resonated within her heightened hearing, mingled with the discharge of a gauss Cannon shot, forcing Thalia to cover her ears and quickly dispel her enhancement.

There was no mistaking who that scream had belonged to. Even though she had never heard her scream, it was so plainly obvious. Suddenly her chest felt like it had begun to suck itself in, and a weight had been hung from her ribs. She felt [i]sick[/i], like she was going to throw up, but the relief would never come. Never before had she felt so violently ill at something that might somewhat have been considered marginally normal within the Magical Girl profession. 

With desperation, she forced the feeling out of the way. What replaced it was panic as the true implications of the event set in. That was [i]Penny[/i] who had screamed. That... that couldn't have been right. She was so strong... there was no way...

Quickly, Thalia swung herself up onto the ledge, and leapt off high into the air, into the maelstrom of darkness and dust. She re-engaged her enhanced hearing, and navigated her way from the darkness with inhuman speed. She had to get there in time... do something to help... cauterise the wound, maybe... she had to do [i]something[/i]..! 

Even with her dampened sense of smell, the scent of blood flooded her senses like an unbridled torrent, assaulting her nose, and returning the sickening feeling to her stomach. As she ran up next to her friend, still rooted in the ground, she enhanced her eye sight, in an attempt to see something, even just silhouettes. 

What she saw left her stunned, almost unable to move. A spear sat embedded in her arm, and a huge chunk of her body had been ripped from her abdomen. Thalia could feel the heat radiating from the wound even from the distance she was at, and felt her legs weaken beneath her. Her eyes glanced across, the the huge ball and the hulking monster within. She couldn't tell if it was reeling from the blast to its face or not...

Her attention was taken back to Penny as another thought crossed her kind; one that made her feel like doubling over in sickness. With wounds like that... she was losing too much blood, even if she was a Magical Girl... she was going to die if she didn't receive help soon.

She grit her teeth, suddenly overcome with fury. Her legs moved on their own, and she ran in front of the girl, and outstretched her arms, facing head on to Elroy. Any and all reluctance melted away in Thalia's head, and she could feel her emotions reaching a breaking point. 

[colour=LightCoral]"G-get..."[/colour] she started, stuttering as she tried to gain control of her dried up throat, [colour=LightCoral]"Get awAY FROM HER!"[/colour] she yelled, her voice devolving more into a roar like that of a wild animal towards the end, and she raised and slammed her foot against the ground. What magical energy she could muster found itself released in a split second, resulting in a massive explosion of fire around her and Penny, somewhat haphazardly aimed towards Elroy. She could feel herself losing control.
