At least the weird puppet lady had helped, although it seemed like the assistance had been promptly murdered. Her clever plan had also been quite foiled by the magic of her opponent being able to see, but at least her armor still felt sturdier than before. (Because apparently she had armor now. It was cool from what she could tell, but still, what the hell had happened to her bikini, and why wasn't anyone else confused by this?) Her assailant had [i]definitely[/i] hit her after she fell on her ass, but evidently she had some instinctive Instant Transmission bullshit built in now, because she was now somewhere else and very not brained. Furthermore, it seemed like the goat guy from before (whose porn had vanished, thankfully) was holding down a whole ass spaceship while espers poured both into and out of it, something that she had been vaguely aware of in the background but not really processed due to the immediate mortal peril. [i][color=7bcdc8]Holy shit, how long has that been there!?[/color][/i] He seemed helpful enough, he was pointing her at someone else to hang around (who she vaguely remembered might have also tried to help earlier during possible kidnapping attempt #1), and the other person currently trying to point her in a direction had been kind of a literally-backstabbing asshole. Taking a moment to look around, she was pretty sure the person she was theoretically supposed to go towards had gone through that portal just a bit ago. At the very least, she didn't see any more cool sci-fi heroines running around out here, just the vaguely familiar-looking space lady who'd exploded out the side of the ship. So, after consideration, she was going to ignore the goat guy's advice for the moment, and follow his OTHER, slightly more recent advice that wasn't actually directed at her. [color=7bcdc8]"Yeah, I think I'm gonna listen to the people not trying to kill me, thanks!"[/color] Rika called over her shoulder, as she took off running after Kidd at full tilt. She wasn't sure she was actually faster than her potential pursuer, but she was still pretty damn zippy, as she'd discovered over the last few days. [color=7bcdc8]"You know, you're kinda sending mixed messages,"[/color] she said to Kidd as she approached. Rika raised her sword as she drew close to the jiggly tide threatening Kidd's giant hands, then started hacking at the slimes. She had a sword now, so she might as well do something useful with it.
