Nothing to her. The ones that had pierced her skin might as well have not been there either for all she cared. The enemy soldiers were like chaff, though the fact they could hurt her so easily was something else altogether. And it seemed more and more troops were coming over the hill with support to boot. Heck, even flying jetpack troops! It was a proper military invasion of sorts, and the familiarity of such a thing left a small but deep scowl on the face of the draconic monster girl. She only hoped her mistress was safe, if nothing else, and since it seemed the situation was turning against the defenders more and more by the minute perhaps she should go and- [quote=???][b][color=FF8C00][h3]‘DDDDDDDDDRRRRRRRRRRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGGGGOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONNNNNNNNNNNNNN---------------!!!!!!!!!’[/h3][/color][/b][/quote] What. Her own recovery was interrupted by a giant fireball headed at her, before the surprise Monster Glomp sent them rolling hard back up the hill. Kiyome struggled against the hold weakly, even as the ground around them was set on fire and even the hill itself as they proceeded to outright roll back down it once more. Then the cornfield was on fire. Fire? Yeah the fire wasn't the frustrating part of it all. Any burns would be shrugged off or just not significant in the face of what had just happened. She even cast a personal-time accelerating spell to augment herself to try to assist. Still, she couldn't free herself from Mayra's grip too quickly as the other dragon girl held her there with a small space between them, beginning to gush and speak with a face that looked like a child on Christmas Morning. Utter joy for her assailant, though the incessant speaking seemed to go on without the other so much as seeming to breathe in Kiyome's eyes. But to do this in the middle of a battle, of all things, and to a random stranger? In other words- [quote=The Excitable Living Fireball][color=FF8C00] ‘Dragon! You’re another dragon-girl, aren’t you!? Are you like me!? Are you like me!? Dragon that was turned into a girl? Oooh, that is so cool! I’m Mayra, also a dragon-girl! I bet you could tell! Do you serve a horror, too? Oooh, I am so happy to have met you! Can I be your friend? I want to be your friend! I love your tail! So sleek and elegant! What are your powers? I can do a whole lot of fire, and I’m really strong, too! Wait, don’t tell me! I want to find out while I fight you! And I want to fight you! Right now! I want to measure our strengths! Can I fight you? I’m going to fight you! I want to see what you can do! Let’s fight, friend!’[/color][/quote] -this one was an idiot, wasn't she? [color=00A36C]"Yes I am a dragon girl. No I wasn't a dragon turned into a girl. You also serve a Horror? Friends what-..e-eh?! Sleek and elegant?! What are you saying at a time like this?!?! I am under no obligation to- wait, what are you- ...ugh."[/color] Kiyome leapt up to her feet in one swinging motion as Mayra finally got off of her and took a battle stance, dusting herself off and brandishing her sword. Kiyome's face likewise now wore a sort of exasperated expression, one somewhat mixed with a new scowl of sorts. An idiot. Just great. She had to deal with an idiot who had superior strength and whatever capabilities she didn't know about by this point. The fire was a given though, that much was clear. Then the other girl came down at her with an overhead slash attack with a superheated claw. Her precognition saw it coming, and frankly the augmentation had given her the reaction time to get off a second spell that was prepared whilst Mayra was chatting incessantly. [color=00A36C]"Save this all for later, after fighting the enemy here! Do that and then we can duel each other!"[/color] Mayra's claw would find empty air and the ground beneath that, as Kiyome teleported herself away right before the attack made any contact. Not that the timing wasn't a bit too close for comfort. The more elegant dragon girl was not personally fast, but between the augmentation of her own personal time still in effect she had enough of a reaction time to use her second spell to teleport out of there. It was, however, enough to get her out of the immediate danger for the moment (she hoped). Appearing near Penny and within the robot monster girl's line of sight, but placing Penny between herself and wherever Mayra and the enemies were, Kiyome let out a small huff before looking over at Penny proper. She coughed some into her hand before speaking again, her body hacking somewhat due to the sickly nature of her own state of general health otherwise. [color=00A36C]"Please be the one leading this defensive operation, and tell me not everyone is an idiot. Please. I was sent to assist your people here on behalf of my mistress, but I am not tolerating constant friendly fire that will keep me from getting anything done around here."[/color] If the robot started talking about how 'she'd be back' or something about a future war or turned on her to shoot her, she was leaving to look for her mistress. She could only take so much stupid in a day. Please. For the love of Thos let someone be competent here! [@Shifter_Master][@PlatinumSkink][@Ariamis] [hr] She had thought having her augmented senses, both mundane and magical, would make entrance into the defended area easier. However, the idea that the defenders would have set up some proper magical defenses had escaped her in the heat of the moment. In her rush she breathed in some toxic spores, after comfortably enough dodging other things on the way in, though it didn't stop her from stopping to save a child from one of the homes in the village. She would continue to violently cough and hack, but would push herself through as she carried the child deeper into the village to try to find some kind of evacuation point for locals. Or at least somewhere she could hide them to go help others and then protect them all from using some kind of barrier. However, it seemed that her senses of the others here were keen enough. Or at least where they were. They seemed to be helping others, from what she could tell, so it was just a gamble if- [quote=???][color=yellow]”You’re here to help, right! Thank goodness! Take anyone you find to the shelter! I’ll show the way!"[/color][/quote] Thank heavens. She allowed the other girl to lead her to the shelter, where another local to the area (she assumed) was there to greet her as well. She would deposit the sleeping child with the rest of the evacuees that had been brought over, it seemed, though the artillery shells kept flying in and brought a look of worry to the Cosmic Gypsy's face. Indeed, introductions would have to be for later, though for the moment she could barely even think of talking with all the coughing fits and such she still had. It was then that the healing orb from a certain 'Hopeful Angel' flew in and slammed into her. The healing blessing rushed through the body of the Horror-Patron'd girl, and suddenly the coughing and so forth would fade rather rapidly from her chest as she felt sweet fresh air once again enter her lungs unimpeded. She'd have to thank her savior later, though, as with a magical barrier having popped up to help with the incoming artillery the gypsy raised her hands up as well. [color=E6E6FA]"Let me erect a barrier as well! Then I'll go with you to find more civilians!"[/color] Eliana would likewise erect a barrier of her own over the town, lying underneath the Angel's own barrier as a secondary defense. It was composed of dark energy, and in effect was intended to literally repel attacks as much as protect from them. It'd hopefully help, at least, rather than make things worse. She would mostly take visual note of what Alexis was trying to do with Lilly, but otherwise take up her own actions due to the ever-shrinking timeframe they seemed to have going on. Once erecting that barrier of hers was done using her Cosmic spec magic, Eliana would rush off to help evacuate as many civilians as she could help move to the evacuation point. She prayed that she'd be able to save as many more as she could, at least, before the defensive situation came crashing down. She likewise hoped Kiyome was doing well too...

While the face and maid headgear were all most familiar, being that of Serenity, the rest was...ah...well something had definitely changed. Both in body and in attire. It was enough that other girls and magical boys in the hall were looking at Serenity here and there as well as she walked along, though it seemed to make Serenity herself uncomfortable. Not as bad as she used to react, perhaps, but uncomfortable all the same. Yet upon seeing Alicia herself, Serenity's crimson eyes seemed to light up and a smile rapidly come to her face as she ran eagerly over to the Seraph and pulled her into a sudden hug. [color=6A5ACD]"Alicia!""[/color] the bunnygirl maid cried out as she ran over, before unthinkingly pulling the friendly face she'd been searching for into a tight hug for a moment, before letting her go once more and standing back a proper distance to talk to Alicia. Albeit her excitement would fade a little back to more of 'her normal' as she spoke on, [color=6A5ACD]"I am so glad to see you! I just got back last night from HQ and I've been looking for the others...and...I have no idea what's been going on here in the last while. In truth...I was hoping to find you to see if you could catch me up to speed, and see if you needed any help in the meantime as well."[/color] Rounding the corner soon after would be a girl with red hair, dressed in a maid outfit, who seemed to be looking for someone. Upon sighting Serenity with Alicia, however, she seemed to light up and hurry over to the two. She then bowed lightly to the two girls, before turning her attention to Serenity in particular. [color=FFDAB9]"Mistress Serenity! You seem to have found Miss Alicia, though...sadly I had no luck otherwise in finding the other people you asked me to seek out. My apologies."[/color] [@Flamelord]
