Aurelio hadn’t gotten very far before things started to go haywire, he had been trailing after Sally, albeit at a considerable distance, launching simple blasts of magic from his cane at various monsters that seemed to be unnoticed or over looked. His goal was simple at this point as he was mainly a support unit thus he was following and planning on supplying support to his allies if they needed it.

Then someone got thrown at him.

[color=fff79a]“Seems we’ve lost normality faster than usual”[/color] He remarked to no one in particular as a girl was thrown his way. With a flourish he pointed his cane at the living projectile sent his way, for while he might have taken the chain wielding swords-woman's warning with a grain of salt, hearing Sally confirm it was enough for him.

However, before he could unleash his spell he found himself transported to who knows where via an overcity shift. [color=fff79a]“I’m just hopping all over the place today”[/color] he once again said to no one as he tucked his cane under his arm the vibrant yellow ban still in place as a dull red one started to swirled down next to it.

[color=fff79a]“And you have it in one, just got popped in the other day."[/color] Aurelio would reply as he turned his attention back to Abigail, while not letting the winged girl or the chained girl out of his vision [color=fff79a]“And not sure I would call her useless, she’s been more than willing to help us out from what I’ve heard, that’s got to count for something.”[/color] He defended Penny, as while he hadn’t seen much of the Monstergirl in question,  his Vow would accept nothing less for an ally of Beacon. 

[color=fff79a]”Still pleasure to make your acquaintance Abigail, please call me Aurelio.”[/color] The magician would answer bowing low and giving the back of the offer hand a light kiss on the knuckles.  [color=fff79a]“And if I might be so bold as to ask what you are doing?”[/color] He would ask after standing back up pointing over at Annabelle as he did [color=fff79a]“After all Sally did mention that this one here is a Dark Magical Girl”[/color]

Something was wrong here, he could tell, but he wasn’t sure what it was. So for the moment he would watch, he was good at that after all. Still he wouldn’t hesitate to lash out and try to incapacitate everyone here if this was going the way he feared and it turned out that these two were working for the forces of darkness. He just hoped that they were doing it against their will.

Quietly he siphoned off the excess excitement from Abigail in preparation for whatever might be coming [color=fff79a]“In addition, Abi, if you need a safe place to do it, I could get us back to HQ in a snap. I’ve got teleporter privileges after all.”[/color]

Penny wasn’t surprised in the slightest that her shot missed, it was more of a way to announce herself then anything.  Thus it was no surprise that she started moving just as Elroy started moving, the difference was that Penny wasn’t moving to intercept. She knew he had back up somewhere and would prefer to keep to the open as much as possible to dodge the incoming attacks.

Thus Penny had rushed to one of the dugouts, bulldozing through anyone who got in her way and started throwing everything she could lift. Which with her inhuman strength was everything but the dugout itself, and even that was getting chunks of stone torn out of it to be thrown. While nothing she was throwing was magical in nature, getting hit with something moving upwards of 300kph was going to hurt or at least distract long enough for a Gauss round to land.

 Most of her thrown barrage was aimed at Elroy, but every now and again she would take aim at one of the mummies dotting the arena. All of her projectiles were aimed at center of mass, but the mix of balls, bat and other miscellaneous rubble she was making for use as projectiles mad it hard to tell if she was going to be hitting with blunt impacts or sharp ones.

It was while she was dismantling the dugout that she noticed the flickering portal in here with her as well as a handful of grunt monsters. The grunts got a face full of close range projectile barrage, while Penny just kept eyeing the portal speculatively in between volleys she threw out. She did alter her tactics a bit to keep anyone else from getting close to portal.

An electric whine for told of another Gauss round ready to fire, and this one she wan't planning on missing with.
