[color=PeachPuff]“Honestly? Not really.”[/color] Su knew the dragons had to be from Lei Zi. She had witnessed her lightning attacks prior and noticed their particular motif. What surprised Su was that Lei had barely waited to fire offsuch a deviating attack. Su did not condone murder on that scale, but it was made worse by the fact that she had spoken with Lei previously and mentioned she needed time to get one of her friends. It seemed their chance encounter hadn’t given Lei any intention of sparing her the wrath of her god. This just made falling to Vi’s music even more embarrassing. Lei Zi may have been overwhelmed and forced to protect herself. Though that was still a tough action to justify. The moral of the story was not to trust shady people who hang out in raves, even if they are distinctly Chinese. Regardless, it didn’t seem like she was in league with Vi. It made no sense to take control of a girl’s mind only to nuke everyone later. Not that Vivi was around for any of that anyway. Su figured she had shifted a bit earlier. The whole thing made no sense. [color=PeachPuff]“My best guess is that Vi’s music caused some of the magical girls to go wild. I’m not sure what the outcome of the rave is, but I think it’s too dangerous to go back and look.”[/color] Su fret her brow and looked at her clenched fist. [color=PeachPuff]“I did see Justine Von Visceral. I find it hard to believe she isn’t tied to all this.”[/color] This wasn’t an unexpected outcome. Su remembered how she felt hovering over Justine’s broken body. Amber had died minutes ago, and Lily was trying to talk Su down. She was so overcome with grief and hatred in that moment. Lily didn’t escape her ire either. Had she not been captured, Amber would not have been in such a rush and would have survived her encounter. But really, Justine was the main problem, and she knew she’d strke again if she wasn’t put down then and there. What she couldn’t quite remember was why she let Justine go in the first place. Justine wanted to be killed, and Su would have loved to oblige. Lily was little more than background noise, and even her boyfriend agreed that Su had every right to end Justine. But there was someone else present. She turned to Helga. The only words that got through to Su came from her. She trusted Helga when she said it wasn’t something Amber would want. At the time Su regarded Helga as an acquaintance that shared her pain. They both loved Amber, they were both angered by her death, and so Su felt she could trust her. But maybe it was all an act. Justine seemed like she was willing to change, but that was clearly a lie. Helga had only known Su and Amber for a week or so, and that was hardly enough time to fall in love with someone. At least not when compared to how long Helga had served Justine. It was possible Helga was a mole this entire time, secretly feeding Justine information on Penrose while pretending to be on Su’s side. Maybe people couldn’t really change. Maybe none of it mattered. Maybe Su was too irritated and tired to think about anything right now. This was all so exhausting. [color=PeachPuff]“I need to get out of here.”[/color] Su rubbed her eyes before looking back at Vivi and Askefye. [color=PeachPuff]“Do either of you know where the nearest overcity exit is?”[/color] [hr] [center][img]https://i.imgur.com/ILCOP2b.png[/img] [color=tomato]“Who likes barbie dolls?”[/color] [color=888888]— Mika Sarraf[/color][/center] [sub][@Vocab][/sub] [color=chocolate]”You sure about this Mika?”[/color] [color=Tomato]"Yes!"[/color] [color=chocolate]”Really sure? ‘Cus I’m not.”[/color] [color=Tomato]"Really, yea!"[/color] [color=chocolate]”Okay, just be careful, alright?”[/color] [color=Tomato]"Yay!"[/color] [hr] Christina would soon wake from her sleep. The first thing she would feel is the [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P-fMDaPFXME&feature=emb_logo]warm sun[/url] beating against her skin. The sun in the beach dimension was far brighter than anything at the rave, so she would need time for her eyes to adjust. That would just take a moment, and then her eyes would be able to take in the [url=https://i.imgur.com/iPnmx07.jpg]alien sky[/url]. It was a bit darker than the one she was use to, but it felt like summer all the same. This would also be when Christina noticed she was reclining in something. A blow up chair that was floating in a swimming pool. One large enough to fill the Colosseum it rested in. There were rows and rows of bleachers going to the very top.A life guard’s nest was occupied by a transformed Rina. She said nothing and just watched from under the shade of her umbrella, bow laying across her lap. Christina would likely notice the relatively light feeling of her clothes. But at a glance, she would see that she was wearing a bright blue bikini. She had no memory of putting it on or even buying it. There was also a giant lotus flower pinning her hair into a ponytail. Before Christina had a chance to question any of this, she’d hear the sound of someone paddling towards her. An untransformed Mika was clad in a black bikini, and was laying against a surf board. One hand was paddling, and the other was wrapped around two cardboard cups with straws sticking out of the top of them. It wasn’t long before she made it to Christine’s position. [color=Tomato]"Whew!"[/color] She sat upright. [color=Tomato]"Okay!"[/color] the cat girl took one of the cups in each hand and held them out to Christine. [color=Tomato]"The one on the left is a re-see-pee-see milk shake, and the one to the right is a strawberry one. I’m gunna eat the one you don’t want, so take what you like."[/color] Mika gave them a shake. [color=Tomato]"You’re pretty."[/color] Rina scratched the bridge of her nose before drinking her own milkshake. [color=Tomato]"I’m Mika! I saved you from the dragon monster. What’s your name?"[/color]
