[center][h3]Gwen[/h3][/center] [@PaulHaynek] [hr] [color=violet]"W-well, I was just trying to help..."[/color] The baphomet said, folding her arms under her ample chest and kicking sheepishly at a piece of debris on the floor after Sidoneus commented on her rather (correctly pointed out) excessive use of force. Still, the man's words didn't go entirely unheard and once he'd vanished to go do... Whatever it was he was going to do, the little goat-girl rpeatedly slapped her own cheeks in order to change her mood. [color=violet]"T-there! It might not have been perfect, but my debut on the field of battle was a success! Yes. Mm!"[/color] She nodded, to herself. [color=violet]"Now that the work is done, I shall be off!"[/color] She exclaimed, to nobody but herself, as the women she had saved earlier had long sicne abandoned the crumbling building. Which made complete sense if you stopped and thought about. As most people would likely run for their life if a short little goat-woman suddenly burst through the wall of your house and blew half a dozen armored, fully grown men away with a vertically aimed tornado... Retreating from the village was rather uneventful, as Gwen just used the same way she'd come, retracing her steps - as best she could. There were of course the random Varjan mook who popped up, but nothing she couldn't outrun or hip-tackle to the side in order to get past. Eventually she left Sanjo Town behind and returned to the cliffs where the taskforce had first descended onto the field of battle. With a bit of magic enchancing... Magic... She used a spell to leap far into the air and easily scaled the cliff... Even though she could just as easily have simply climbed it [i]without[/i] the wasteful use of mana. But, at least she was up and back again. Soldiering on, she proceeded back into the woods from whence they'd origianted, and soon found herself back at the Camp o' Janus. [hr] [center][h3]Coco[/h3][/center] [@PaulHaynek] [hr] [color=gold]"Gotcha, hubby. I'll see you back home~"[/color] The werecat purred with half-closed eyes, looking over her shoulder back at the man who had just dropped by to tell her their mission was over. [i]So, Tiny's already been told? Guess that just leaves the princess, eh?[/i] The scantily clad kitty mused, before beginning her trek out of the burning, heavily Varjan-infested village. Unlike a certain baphomet who had run laughing, wooping and loudly making her way out of this place, Coco retained her calm, casual and quiet, and careful, way of moving. Using the alleys, shadows and various other obstacles around to move silently and unseen, avoiding any unnecessary encounters with both locals and Varjans alike. Leaving the little fishing village behind, Coco now found herself at the cliffs where they'd all started. Using the same spell as she had when descending, the werecat conjured a little earthen platform to stand on, and then used it as an escaltor/elevator to ride lazily and leaisurely up the cliffside without having to move a muscle. Once at the top, she crumbled the platform and made her way back into the wooded undergrowth, easily picking up on distant voices and noise made by the taskforce members already back at camp. [hr] [center][h3]Coco & Gwen, Back at Camp Janus[/h3][/center] [@PaulHaynek], [@Rune_Alchemist] [hr] [color=violet]"Miss Kittyyyyyyyy! Sir Januuuuus!"[/color] A smiling, happily waving Gwen came bumbling through the woods, nearly tripping on some tree roots before stumbling into the camp. Coco, who had just returned herself,. was about to approach and greet [u][b]Janus[/b][/u], when her attention was diverted to the return of the short but well-stacked baphomet. [color=gold]"Welcome back, Tiny. Looks like you're a lil' worse for wear there, hm?"[/color] Coco said, poking one of the small cuts on Gwen's shoulder, which made the baphomet's entire body quiver from unpleasant, stinging sensation. [color=violet]"Aak! N-No, this is just... I... I uh... I got a bit carried away, yes. No worries! With the power of my [b][i]Empyrean Grand Healing[/i][/b] I'll be good as new in mere moments, [b]BEHOLD![/b]"[/color] The little one replied, before charging her hands with an absurd amount of white, radiant light that was reminiscent of the floodlights used as at a stadium for sports events in our world. Then, being bathed in that same light, the baphomet was surrounded by a holy aura of luminosity that momentarily made her look like a tiny, but nontheless divine little horned goddess! Until the light flashed and began to break apart, like the motes of a recently exploded fireworks rocket. Once the little spectacle was over, one couldn't find a simple blemish or trace of any marring marks on the young monster. She was actually looking shiny and particularly supple, as if her skin had never been pricked or touched by anything other than silken gloves her entire life. [color=violet]"See? See? I have been revived!"[/color] [color=gold]"Pfft, huhuhu~ It wasn't like you were in any danger to begin with, you ditz."[/color] [color=violet]"W-Well I can't go around looking disheveled, you know? As a proud and noble representative of The Sabbath, I must maintaind appearance and decorum."[/color] The little one replied, cheeks blushing a bit and averting her gaze. Which made Coco laugh and glomp onto the shorter girl, patting her head. [color=gold]"Ahaha~ You're too cute, I could just eat you up, Tiny."[/color] [color=violet]"I wawawa... Uh.. Ah... Eheeheeheehee~!"[/color] And it appeared that Gwen was none too opposed to being embraced and being given headpats. As the goat and cat engaged in a bit of skinship, the the latter soon turned her head to look at Janus. [color=gold]"So, tell me Jan-Jan. How'd it go on the beach? Didja find some of those Owa-people and bring'em back? We did what we could in the town, your [i]brother[/i] stayed behind to look for that Fire-Princess though, so I can't fill you in on anything about him. Sorry, hun'."[/color] She asked and informed. All while still patting Gwen's head, who was still standing there like a good girl, laughing happily and seeming to have forgotten all about what was happening around her...
