[color=silver]Cora’s eyes widened as the scene played out in front of her.  Her gaze settled on the greeter. As he spoke, a chill ran down her spine and she tugged hastily at Kenia and Malachi’s hands. It wasn’t any use though, as he transformed into a giant demon with four eyes. The color drained from her face as she watched people bouncing off the exits. They were trapped like rats and were not essentially pigs for slaughter. Her heart skipped a few beats as a winged female flew into the air and released a crystal. Mesmerized, Cora watched it turn into a rift and a terrifying demon crawled out of it. Her eyes teared up as she realized they could possibly - no. Cora was going to do everything possible to protect her friends. She glowered as the pandemonium overtook the ballroom. 

From there, it was a blur. Cora froze in her place for a moment. What did she do - what [i]could[/i] she do?  Her mind raced for a solution as the entire ballroom except her, acted. Then, her mind raced: Elsea. Her friend had revealed herself, and so had that other human girl. For some reason, she looked familiar although Cora had never met her before. Whatever - it didn‘t matter right now. Cora wanted to find both humans and make sure they were safe. [color=lightcoral]”I’m going to find Elsea and that human! I’ll meet you guys back at the Inn.”[/color] Cora yelled to the others and let go of them. She didn’t look back in case it forced her to change her mind. She began navigating her way through the crowd. She came to a screeching halt when she found a dark haired-feline, accompanied by a young male Orc, standing together away from the chaos. Before she could react, more chaos ensued.

A familiar figure entered her vision and she whirled around to find the annoying fox child who had ratted them out. Cora watched with horror as he transformed into a giant black wolf. [color=yellow][i]Oh my God[/i][/color], thought Cora with panic. They had been more than wise to kick him out. She turned to try to find Malachi and Kenia to tell them, but they weren’t anywhere in sight. At that same time, Righteous yelling filled the air, and Cora paused nearby them to see another woman, covered in blood, declaring herself against Akelnroth. She tilted her head to one side and smiled: another ally. She noted the woman with a half smile and turned to find the group behind her, holding weapons and defending one another. 

[color=lightcoral]”Hey are you okay?”[/color] She knelt beside the Orc who turned to stare at her with dark brown eyes.

[color=olive]”Light Elf, do not bother us.”[/color] The orc sneered at her with a scowl on his face. The feline beside him began chuckling as she sheathed her sword. Cora now noticed the blood dripping from it and the light elves behind them stirring feebly.  The orc was grinning and holding a club in his hand. [color=olive]”We do not want Light Elf by us.”[/color] Cora frowned at them and straightened up. Did she dare reveal herself? No. These two didn’t deserve it. She scowled at them both and began to run towards Elsea when the giant wolf ran passed her, chasing some kind of creature. She didn’t know what it was particularly, but Cora felt sympathy rise for her. She wanted to help her fight off the wolf, but the next moment she looked, it was gone. She blinked with confusion. Those wolf and the prey it was chasing were fast. Cora tore her gaze away.

Her attention was caught too when the dark haired male from earlier who had started the initial protest, shot up with water and to the balcony. Stunned, she watched as he landed near the demon-greeter. Cora’s heart accelerated as excitement rose How many humans were there? She couldn’t wait to meet them all! She hoped he was possibly trying to kill it since both the demon and he shot off the balcony. This in turn then caused the barriers to lift and allowed people to escape. The chaos intensified as others began rushing to escape. This would only cause a crowd and stampede. Cora turned and went to run when she heard a loud tearing. Scowling and confused, she turned to find the Orc had trapped her dress under a table. The two of them were snickering. She sighed impatiently at the two and began moving the table off her dress as it continued ripping. Cora scowled and lunged forward to begin fixing it. A sudden roar filled the ballroom as she turned to face the demon staring at her. Cora felt panic rise inside of her and swallowed hard. She stopped fidgeting with the table and chair and turned to the demon with a vicious glare. [color=yellow][i]Sorry, this human is off your menu.[/i][/color] She quickly formed two fireballs and threw them at the demons’ face. The demon screeched, though her flames weren't highly effective. 

Reacting fast, she turned and then lit the table leg on fire and kicked the rest of it out of her way. The table turned on its side, burning, and now freeing her dress. Releasing the flames momentarily, she tore the rest of the dress off and revealed a slit leg. The demi-feline and orc were gawking at her. [color=yellow][i]Stare all you want, you assholes. You trapped me on purpose…[/i][/color] Her gaze locked with the female red haired Elf from earlier who was grinning at her in an unnerving, creepy way. Cora paused with confusion and pushed it away. In that moment she'd become distracted, the demon swiped her with its' hand and knocked her off her feet and into a table. Cora yelled out in pain and shock as she collided with it. For a moment she lay in pain and then dizzily clambered back to her feet. If she didn't move, she'd perish. Cora ignored the pain for now and instead, she created a wall of fire around herself protectively. God, that hurt. She hoped to God she didn't have another concussion, or worse...

Scowling, she raised her hands and created a ring of fire around the demon to temporarily distract it from killing other guests. She turned to see other Avalians staring at her. They were cowering away and allowing others to take the hits for them. Cora glared at them, enraged over the injustice. [color=lightcoral]”What are you doing? Fight! Don’t you hear and see the humans encouraging you to stand up?”[/color] She turned to see the demon going to grab a light elf and threw another fireball at it to distract it. The plan worked briefly as she managed to irritate it enough to pause from killing the light elf, who fled.  Unfortunately, it had found other guests to terrorize. Cora felt a pang in her heart. The injustice was tearing her up inside. [color=lightcoral]”We are all one people, and we all need to stick together.”[/color] She turned to the entrance and heard the Light Elf governor screaming to let him out and pulling people out of his way. Cora wanted to help, but how?

Scowling, she checked on her ring of fire which was continuing to burn. She then shot more fireballs at the demon as it began trying to devour more Avalians. It distracted it enough to help others escape. She needed more help but who was willing to try? This thing would leave the ballroom and continue massacring others in the city. Cora turned and raised her hands to heighten the flames. She was beginning to feel drained, but her mind kept screaming for her to do more. She decided to push her pain and fatigue aside. Once she finally joined Elsea and the feline (Cade) she lowered the ring of fire around the demon. Her energy was zapping, she had to grip a table for balance. The fire was still burning inside of her, despite the flames being gone. [color=lightcoral]”Are you okay, Elsea?”[/color] She inquired as she guarded them and glared at anyone who came close to them. Her gaze flickered to the feline. Was he an ally or foe? They would soon find out.[/color]
