[color=ed145b]"Never considered being thrown as a method of attack before!" [/color]

Riku liked where Akiko was going with her thinking, deflecting strikes from incoming Nephunas all the while with her wide scythe weapon. She'd take offense to the bard's last comment. 

[color=ed145b]"I don't make a habit out of dying! I promise!"[/color] Though it's clear she's quite upset over what's happened. She quickly refocused herself onto Akiko's shoulder, braced up like a ball and ready to be catapaulted.

[color=ed145b]"Okay! Are we doing this on the count of one or threeaaaaAAAH!"[/color] She'd get her answer as she finds herself soaring through the air like an arrow. 

Nephuna was in sight! She'd raise her scythe high and poised to land a great cleaving strike that would've cut anyone in half. She's oblivious to the large tidal wave of whale powered water that knocked her off her course and caught her up in the wave, slinging her against a pair of rocks. She grunts as she collides with the hard surface painfully. From there she's left as a stranded witness to the ongoing fight beneath her. 

The battle before her is incomprehensible with various powerful being unleashing their complex and devastating attacks. Kanbaru's great wave nearly sent her flying and she'd have to stable herself with her scythe. Thomas's attack was most concerning of all. She could barely recognize the boy from Fable she'd grown fond of. He was possessed by that strange woman and his eyes were pure gold, speaking and moving like an entirely different person. A much more violent and bloodthirsty person. When she's recovered she's left stranded on a giant hunk of rock as the battle progressed on without her. 

She'd commit herself to helping Thomas, not wanting to see him have to become like that again. She felt this floor was getting to all of them and bringing out the worst in everyone. She was at a lost of actions she could do to change this, left only bearing witness to all the awfulness of this all stakes battle.

[i]I guess I really need to stop fooling around and take this more seriously. For Kiara and Thomas's sake...I'm supposed to be a leader and this is the best I can do?[/i]
