Victoria laughed to herself as she saw Glory just smash her way into the factory. She could not be mad at Glory for the lack of her grace with that breaching maneuver. Glory had struck the iron it was time to make heat up the forge. Victoria charge into the breach right after the dust settled. As she crossed the threshold of the breach, red flash ran down Victoria's form. The light was the light of Victoria reinforcing her illusion. Her armor solidified and hardened. The thuds of her leather boots' footfall was replaced by the clanking of metal sabatons as she crossed over the rubble. She stumbled a bit as the sudden weight of the armor places itself upon her frame. Despite how much she was prepared suddenly wearing armor always as her threw her balance off.

Victoria was actually surprised to see what she did when she passed though the breach. She had an image in her head that this factory would be little more than a empty warehouse with just some punk gangsters pretending to be tough. She instead found herself in the middle of a black market. Glory's sudden entrance and shouting had caused a wave of fear to go through the market. All present seemed frozen in fear as they looked in Glory and Victoria. Victoria saw a merchant quickly steal some jewels from the customer he was trying to haggle with. Victoria had to get these scared people moving again. It would be wasteful to crush everyone here when they could run away without resistance. Victoria without thinking conjured up a full body shield in her left hand and in her right hand she conjured a long steel spear. As the spear manifested, the shaft extended beneath one of the nearby stalls. Victoria used the spear as leverage to flip over the stall. The poor merchant's stolen enchanted jewelry and other trinkets scattered everywhere. Victoria called out after Glory paused, "[color=ec008c]Shop is closed. Flee while you can! We want to Exceed and this factory is now a war zone. Any hostility will be interpreted as being an associate to theft![/color]"

As Victoria made her demand known, the first guard of this hidden black market and possibly a grunt of Bat Wing came charging at Victoria. Victoria bashed the man hard with her shield. He was unprepared for such a sudden response. Victoria swept his legs out from under him with her spear. As the man was momentarily in the air, Victoria morphed her spear into a one handed war hammer. She brought that hammer down on the man's chest and drove him into the ground like a nail. Victoria brought her shield in front of her just in time for block a fireball launched at her. A member of bat wing had a wand looking device and was blindly shooting fireballs at Victoria.
