Maintaining a strong choke-hold on her chosen guard, Satirra took the time to look around and see what was happening with the other guards. Cayde was able to swiftly slay one of the forward-most two, and that other Draph had taken down the other one. But as she looked to see whether any more were coming, Satirra saw a man with blue hair wrapped into a ponytail, who'd been standing over the corpse of a guard that she must have missed. Now that she thought about it, it was possible that that man had rushed past everyone completely just to get [i]to[/i] him.

[color=f26522][i]'Huh. Guess we owe him one,'[/i][/color] Satirra thought to herself, [color=f26522][i]'Still though, I could've sworn there were only three of them...'[/i][/color]

She'd spent [i]some[/i] time seeing if she could wrap her hand around her miscalculation but, no longer wanting to think about it, she slammed her chosen guard's head against the stone wall. His helmet would likely keep him alive, but the Copper Dhirom had still applied more than enough strength to knock him out. She was about to give the radio she had in hand the same treatment, but Cayde's advice had stopped her from going through with it. He did have a point about co-ordination being possible with the things.

[color=f26522]"Slight problem with that, Cayde; we're all used to doing our own thing and there's not enough radios for everyone,"[/color] Satirra mentioned, [color=f26522]"We've only got four of the things and there's six of us. Seven if you count 'pansy-fist' over there."[/color]

She made sure to emphasize the imaginary 'n' in pacifist, as if to take a slight jab at Perkeo's lack of will to fight.

With that, Satirra position herself behind everyone else and set the unconscious guard down to one side, before kneeling down and brandishing her claws. Assuming the Ether-lock had worn off on her completely, she [i]should[/i] be able to dig through this floor like a hot knife would cut through butter. Infusing her claws with her Earth magic would allow her to break through any material that it could possibly have been made of, and if arcanists had a hand in reinforcing its structure, she'd know about it. In any case, it was better that Satirra test her theory right now, rather than try to do it in desperation and find that it was completely impossible. She could easily catch up to everyone if breaking through the floor wasn't going to happen. Furthermore, it was still very possible that the resulting hole would fail to lead anywhere, or that the fall would be too great for anyone else to make it down without injury. In both of those events, it made little sense to dig the hole in a position where it would be in everyone else's way; hence why Satirra made that slight backtrack.

[color=f26522]"Aight, I'ma see if I can dig a hole real quick,"[/color] she told Cayde, [color=f26522]"If that guard I knocked out comes to, make sure no-one gets a knee-jerk reaction from it and tries to kill him. He'd have been a modern art piece by now if I didn't think he'd have the slightest value to us alive."[/color]

Trusting Cayde would know what to do from there, Satirra set to work, mustering as much of her Earth magic as she could while she clawed away at the floor. Time would tell if any of the scratches she'd make would pay off in the long run.
