Many Roman war dramas had one character or another proudly declaring that they bare no scars on their back. The implication being that they had never fled from a battle that had been decided. Luna couldn’t care less about how brave she looked, but getting hit in the back by a spear was not a good time. That was especially true if it was hurled by an ape man.

She was momentarily powerless. The honey hardened over her like a golden coffin, making her unable to avoid the spear. It was one hell of a silver lining, but the honey sarcophagus she had been trapped inside was broken up by the strike to her back. Though the searing pain made such a thing hard to be thankful for. Pain and weakness spread out from her lower back. The ape had missed her spine, but she could already tell that wasn’t a wound that was going to just heal itself. Perhaps it was the weight of the spear, or the fact that the tip wasn’t too sharp, but it fell out of her back just as she swapped places with the hammer. Another blunder brought on by the delayed effect of her melody. She really did have the most unreliable glamors in Pax Septimus.  

There was a brief pause in action as Luna and the bulldozer operator looked at each other. Of all the random and insane things that had to happen, somehow winding up in the lap of some greasy machine operator topped everything that had happened thus far. Luna had safely buried her woes over not having any guys to hang with in the back of her mind. While Luna’s fortune was constantly in flux, it was uncommon for her wishes to be granted monkey paw style. But she didn’t know why he looked so upset. It’s not every day a drop dead gorgeous babe just falls into your lap. She had even been lightly sprayed with honey, she doubted it could get any better than this. Maybe threatening him earlier spooked him, she didn’t know. But he was drawing a pistol and that wasn’t cool.

[color=75c159]”Knock that off!”[/color] Luna grabbed the man’s head and shoved it into her kinda-small-yet-firm breasts. She caught his hard hat and placed it on top of her own head just so that she didn’t have to deal with it at the moment. Her legs were still restrained in place, but Luna managed to stretch past the man’s jelly belly and grab his gun. She aimed at the ape and fired a few rounds at his center mass, focusing on his chest, shoulders, and head. A hand gun likely didn’t have enough ammo to kill an ape man, but weakening him now would make him easier to deal with later. No sooner did she finish shooting did Luna pull the man’s head back and press the hot barrel of the gun against his neck.

[color=75c159]”Turn this thing around and floor it!”[/color] As confident as Luna was in her ability to learn the controls, she doubted she could dispose of this virgin, remove him from the cockpit, learn the controls, and successfully ride to the mist girl’s side. The collapse, the bee men, and the monkey all made things time sensitive in regards to her companion’s survival. If the construction worker could heed her orders, he didn’t have to die. Not that Luna cared one way or the other.

Now might have been a good time to heal that infernal stab wound in her back, but Luna would have plenty of time to do that once she completed her mission. Once the bulldozer was turned around, she aimed her finger across the warehouse and fired a firework into the crane’s massive wrecking ball. 

[color=75c159]”Yas queen! Slay!”[/color] Tetrad pumped her fist, still keeping her gun pointed at the man's neck.

Something as massive as a crane could not be totally affected by one of Luna’s melodies, but with any luck, her magic was potent enough to at least reduce the weight of the wrecking ball. That should at least buy them a moment, provided the wrecking ball wasn’t broken or wrapped around the crane after a sudden overswing.
