For a second, she was completely caught off guard by how stupid he really was. [i]He hasn’t noticed that he’s free now?[/i] She thought bitterly as her hand tightened on her shoulder. [i]Stupid fu-[/i] Her thought was interrupted by a sudden voice behind her. Lyss froze in place. She half expected another knife to go through her from behind. She braced herself. Her eyes began to close. She was expecting death, or for whoever it was to throw her across the room. Either way, she was ready to take it. Out of nowhere, she felt something wrap itself around her waist and pull. She was pulled away from the threat behind her. The movement jostled the knife in her shoulder as she was yanked off to the side of the room. [color=D3D3D3] “Agh!”[/color] She shouted mid-saving. Her hand gripped her shoulder like it was about to fall off. It felt like it was. Her right arm fell. The trapping spell was broken and the black energy around Babylon was cut instantly. Lyss could only focus on the pain in her shoulder, and the need to stay standing. She didn’t lose consciousness, but she definitely wished she could. [i]Stay awake. Get yourself out. There’s nothing else for you here.[/i] Her thoughts were muggy and distant, but she remained upright and awake. Her head turned to her saviour. The figure of a lion. Asta. She leaned against the abstraction for support. Herik walked over. He was speaking. She didn’t know what he said to Madison, but she heard him when he told her that she was bleeding too much. Lyss pressed her lips together. She would have said “no shit” if she had her head on straight. He was right, of course, but there were other things to worry about right now. Like Babylon and her stupid fucking boyfriend Luis. And whoever the “like ya cut” guy was. She’d have to find Babylon again and finish the job then. [color=D3D3D3] “Alright. Give me one more second.”[/color] She raised her arm one more time, and even though it hurt like hell, she wanted to do this last thing. To protect the rest of the Coven, and to get back at Babylon. [color=D3D3D3] “You want to leave so bad? FINE! Get the fuck away from us.”[/color] That said, Lyss let her black lux flow from her ring one more time. Instead of flowing out like a funnel, this time it exploded from her ring in the form of a bubble. It grew fast. She was using as much energy as she could until she could rest after this. The bubble expanded, blowing past Herik, Penny, the smacker guy, and Madison without a problem. When it hit Babylon and Luis, though, it pushed them with a force equal to a rough shove. Her warding was cruel to the affixed and abscised within range. If they hadn’t moved fast enough, they would probably leave a dent in the wall. Lyss turned to Herik and, after reluctantly releasing her shoulder, held out her good arm towards him so he could raise her onto the lion. [color=D3D3D3] “Let’s get out of here before I faint.”[/color]
