She could feel strength returning to her limbs, and she could hear much better. Avoiding one of the dragons attacks, Rina deftly dodged to the side, back flipping and launching a few swords towards the Dragon head in the attempt. Hmph, this wasn't quite enough, was it? She needed something else. Think, Rina, Think! Inhaling, the magical girl stopped running, Pivoting on the spot to face the beast after getting some distance between her and it - except...it was no longer following her? Rina paused, taking a quick look around in case she was about to get ambushed, but it seemed as though it had run off in fact - Swiveling her head. Rina turned towards the source of a commotion. In fighting...? Perhaps this could be used to her advantage. She turned once more, avoiding another attack from the dragon head before dashing towards Regina and the others. Should she? Should she even try? Should she take the risk? The chances anything would go right were slim. Dealing with monster girls and dark magical girls were never going to go right, but - perhaps. ... Well, the two she met recently seemed friendly enough. No outward hostility at all. Perhaps, she could be optimistic for once. [color=chocolate]"Alicia!"[/color] Now back in the fight, she turned her attention to Regina. [color=chocolate]"Focus on the big guy. I'll handle the other one!"[/color] She had lost track of them during her fight with the dragon head, but she didn't trust anyone else at the moment. She'd like to trust beacon, but she still couldn't fully bring herself to say she could ever fully submit to conforming to someone else's idea of justice. Refinding the owner of the dragon head however, was easy enough. [color=chocolate]"...Hmph. You!"[/color] Rina pointed one of her swords at Regina. It was a hostile, defensive stance, and she was ready to dodge and counterattack at a moments notice. [color=chocolate]"...I don't know what is going on with you and your partner, And I recognize a call for help when I hear one...so I'll give you one chance to aid us. Accept, and I shall stay my blade from your neck, for now. Decline and Justice will show you no mercy."[/color] Her tone was unwavering, firm as the steel her swords were made of. There would be no negotiating. Either she would accept the terms, or she wouldn't. Was this a mistake? Probably. But justice without attempting some mercy, was not justice. Regardless, if Regina didn't respond within ten seconds, then she'd have made her decision and Mercy would no longer be given for this monster.

All the remaining spirits congregating near her. Her orb danced around her, like a lantern calling the lost, remaining souls she could find in this now cursed place. Still, she couldn't take too much time here. She could feel it. A heart wrenching, unpleasant feeling. Penny was in danger. Of course she would be caught up in this - so she'd need to finish it swiftly. Ah, this was going to be something rather inelegant, but it would do. [color=violet]"How rude."[/color] Chloe smirked, tilting her head slightly to the side. [color=violet]"It's not exhibitionism...it's merely me being honest with myself. But I know love when I see it. Yours is quite wonderful."[/color] Crystalline wings formed behind her, lifting the dark magical girl slowly above the air, her crystal ball shining brightly in the darkness. [color=violet]"So don't worry. I'll crush this impure one and maybe take you on a date later, heh!"[/color] This was going to be quite a quick, dirty, and inelegant thing...but she'd use whatever she needed too. [color=violet]"You want to speak of love, wretch?"[/color] Raising a hand, the congregating spirits began coalescing into an amorphous, ethereal mass. The orb spun, fast, faster, and even faster as a screeching noise permeated the area. [color=violet]"You're love is nothing more than a fabricated sham, isn't it! Your nothing more than an impurity that needs to be cleansed."[/color] Chloe laughed, a psychotic grin forming on her face as the amalgamation in front of her began taking some sort of form. [color=violet]"Let me crush that impurity of yours!"[/color] The amalgamation twisted, a horrific, ear splitting screech shook the entire area as something fell out of the mass, slamming its entire rotten, putrid body into the ground. The beast coughed and sputtered, attempting to get its new set of eight legs under control, a hoarse, pained whinny came from its equine maw, half rotted, strips of flesh falling from its mouth. Its goat like back legs were the first under it, its feline front paws the second. Four arachnid legs jutted from its sides, helping stabilize and orient the beast's massive canine body. [color=violet]"Hmm...if I had to equate this beasty to anything - it'd be your so called love~!"[/color] Chloe giggled, dropping herself on top of the beast. Whew, she was exhausted but if there was one thing she was good at, it was appearances. Now atop her mount, Chloe donned her second armament - her gloves. Without another word, the chimeric beast gave a shriek, a roar, carrying its rider atop it as it bolted towards Divina's White Monolith with unnatural agility that a creature of its size shouldn't have, deftly avoiding the lasers from the Monoliths, and those that did manage to hit didn't seem to slow it down at all. Once at the Monolith, slammed its entire body weight into the monolith and undeterred, it leaped backwards before shrieking up at Divina.
