And if he did, maybe she would have gotten hit by such a shockwave and there would be a cute nurse to help fix her up. But in this reality, She was content to go along with whatever Evil Eye wanted. Her thumb brushed the back of her hand as they soared through the sky. After some time, Oros was set back on the ground again. Her eyes immediately moved to her hand, which was no longer holding Evil Eye’s. She couldn’t remember the last time she had held someone’s hand that long. She had carried Tsubomi around a few times, but that felt less intimate than holding hands. Hands were so soft and warm, and- Oh, Acid Drop! Where was she? She scanned the ruined landscape. Aside from the corner of the school where the cafeteria was, everything else was demolished. Broken timber, concrete chunks, and twisted rebar littered the ground. She thought of inspecting the cafeteria, but a sudden chunk of Hizuki’s mecha fell a few inches in front of Oros’s nose. The delinquent looked up to the sky and saw Acid Drop suspended in the air. [color=ff6347]"Rainbow!"[/color] She reached out her arms, and the bloody tendrils on her back made a giant trampoline for her to fall on. And Acid drop kept falling, slowly, a few feet per second, as the wings crumbled and guided her to the trampoline. Metal plates bounced harmlessly off of Oros’s trampoline before the wings gently laid Acid drop on top of Oros’s position. With a sigh, Oros folded up her blood trampoline and dumped Acid drop into her arms, and was then placed on the ground. [color=ff6347]"Wew! That was a close one…"[/color] It looked like Acid Drop was okay, if a bit burnt out. Black Gate remained where she laid without moving a muscle. Only her eyes moved, between Nyxia aiming her cannon at her, to Evil Eye who was giving her the evil eye. Their eyes remained locked, but Evil Eye looked away first. Black Gate continued to stare. Then something would catch Evil Eye’s attention. Some rubble slid off the remaining corner of the school. An impossibly tall human silhouette wandered out of a ruined hallway. Though in time that silhouette stepped into the light and was revealed to be a familiar face. The tentacles that made up her legs, the diving gear she wore above that, it was all in full view.

(For now…)"[/color] [color=888888]— Sink Queen[/color][/center] [color=d3bf7b]"Hello lovelies."[/color] Sink Queen did not rush forward. She continued to walk in a dignified manner, with her tentacles behaving as a long dress. Quite different from how a normal octopus would pull itself across land. [color=d3bf7b]"I’m simply chuffed that the lot of you managed to handle that on your own."[/color] She lifted a hand to her mouth. [color=d3bf7b]"Imagine retiring to your own bed, being besieged by night terrors, only to wake up in an unfamiliar cafeteria."[/color] She stopped walking when she was near Black Gate. [color=d3bf7b]"If it’s all the same to you, I think I’ll be taking this one with me."[/color] Oros looked side to side. [color=ff6347]"Uh, I think we have this handled, right?"[/color] She looked at the other club members for confirmation. But her attention was brought back to Sink Queen when she started laughing. [color=d3bf7b]"How silly!"[/color] She waved her hand at the others. [color=d3bf7b]"Have you looked in a mirror? This ankle biter was a little more than you’d bargained for. I appreciate that you’ve subdued the scoundrel, and saved my life, but dealing with brats like this is something I’m suited to dealing with."[/color] One of her tentacles inched towards Black Gate and coiled around her legs. Her grip on her plush tightened, but she didn’t move from her spot. [/hider]
