[quote=Ditzy Stoneclub]"Ditzy say we beat up the group! Dragon lady will beat ogre, and if we win, then it's good! Reed go fight...lizards, Ditzy can beat up orcs and minotaur!"[/quote]

Reed shrugged, but he was on board with the dishonorable plan. "[color=steelblue]Well, I hope Nagare doesn't get too mad.[/color]" 

He then got on one knee to explain the situation to [u]Ada[/u] who was pointing at the surrounded ice Dragon with concern. "[color=steelblue]Ada, we're going to help Nagare. Ditzy said he would take care of the Orcs and the Minotaur while I handle the Lizardman and the Salamander. We're still outnumbered and outmatched but now, we have the element of surprise. I'll admit, it won't look good for us but... we have no choice. Sorta.[/color]"

"[color=steelblue]Anyway, here's the plan.[/color]" Reed motioned to [u]Ditzy[/u] to come over. "[color=steelblue]Ada, here's what you're gonna do. I need you to help Ditzy knock out the Orcs and the Minotaur. As soon as you're done with that, help me with the lizards. Got it?[/color]" Reed then stood up and unsheathed his sword once more. "[color=steelblue]I can't beat the Lizardman and the Salamander. But I can keep them busy.[/color]"

"[color=steelblue]Are we crystal on the plan? Alright, let's do it![/color]"

[u]Nagare[/u] blasted water from her draconic mouth. The more agile of the warrior troupe dived out of the way as much as possible while the Ogre and the other strength-focused monsters withstood the jets of cold water from the ice Dragon.

But [u]Nagare[/u] cannot be spraying her torrents at all of them while surrounded. Once she was blasting away the Ogre, the Orcs took the opportunity to slam their bodies on her tail and the ice Dragon would feel terrible weight upon her behind. The Lizardman and the Salamander approached, striking their swords against [u]Nagare's[/u] scales. Meanwhile, the Minotaur still waited for a good opening to deal a mighty blow.

"Alright, I'll let you handle this." Neil nodded. "I'll go look for help. Err, try not to destroy too much of the place." He made his way to the kitchen door and left. It was surprising that Ian allowed all of this to happen. What could he be planning?

"[color=ivory]Why'd you send him away? Afraid you'll look bad once I lay the inevitable beatdown on you?[/color]" Ian continued to brim with confidence as he circled around you, like a predator upon prey.

You ignited your polearm and charged once more, spreading fire around the vicinity all the while so Ian could no longer do his confounded side dodges. But the mercenary did not plan on evading, instead he dropped his sword and grabbed a barrel and used it to block your charge. The polearm pierced clean through the barrel but barely missing Ian's head, scraping his helmet. 

Water spilled messily from the damaged barrel which began to douse your weapon's flames. Ian then released his grip on the barrel and the sudden onset of weight made you drop the polearm and the mercenary used the opportunity to land a dropkick, sending you stumbling back away from your polearm.

Ian grabbed another barrel of water and hurled it towards you. He was clearly intending to fight you with the kitchen's water reserves.

[u]Yang[/u] and [u]Kira[/u] made their quiet trip back to the Guild headquarters without any further incident. Night has fallen when they arrived and they found that their appeared to be quite some activity happening in the kitchen.

The two entered and found that the kitchen was filled with a dozen or so little monsters, particularly Giant Mice and Devil Bugs, all of whom were feasting happily on some well-made lasagna. Besides them were the [u]Altissima sisters[/u], [u]Freyr[/u] and his lover, Haley. "[color=royalblue]Oh hey, you two.[/color]" The Siren appeared as exhausted as the monk and the Beelzebub.

"[color=royalblue]By the Demon Lord, you two look horrible. Are you two alright?[/color]"
