Alicia Hayden
Though she wanted to continue the pursuit, Alicia found herself rapidly overruled by Sylvia. June had been injured in her fight, the fire was spreading in this place, and most aggravatingly it seemed that Penny had decided she wanted to destroy the castle. She knew that it was just in her nature to do so but it was still frustrating for her. They hadn't even had any time to free the prisoners from Mariette's control, and they wouldn't have the chance once Penny had done what she wanted to do. And that would leave countless girls in the unwilling service of a Horror.
Taking a moment to address June, Alicia gave her a warm smile as she shook her head. "You held off all those girls by yourself, and that's something. When you have a bit more experience like the rest of us you're going to be something to see," she assured the rookie. There was nothing to be ashamed of in her performance, and Alicia didn't want her blaming herself for their retreat when it was only part of the reason.
Things rapidly moved to their conclusion, Sylvia making her exit with June, and the others moving to follow her. Alicia wanted to object, to try and buy some time for them to do more, accomplish more. Not just the prisoners who might get caught when Penny brought the castle down, but Janet as well. There had still been no sign of her this entire time, and now they were abandoning her again.
"But...But...gah!" Her protests faltered and fell, replaced by an expression of frustration as she found herself overruled. Initially moving for the exit, she paused, swung back, and grabbed the first couple of books she happened to reach off of the shelves before joining the others in their escape. It wasn't much, but maybe Justine had collected something that would be useful for them when this was all over.
She passed by Sally as tears budded in the corners of her eyes. She was angry at Penny and her monstrous nature, angry at herself for not being more successful, angry at her companions for going along with it and writing off everyone else in the castle. All she could do now was hope that things worked out for them. And somehow she doubted that they would be that lucky.

Leaving behind Kimble while keeping in mind her directions, she only paused for a moment as her gaze swept the foyer, settling on the hole in the floor ans the impact crater in the ceiling. "I see they were busy," she remarked. Just what had happened in here while they were finishing the fight outside?
There was little time to think about that however, and Penny took over in making them a path to the library by blowing out the walls. It might be a bit overly blunt, but for once Alicia could approve of Penny's destructive tendencies. It got them to June faster and that was all that mattered. Though she was also glad that they didn't hit anyone along the way there, that would have been a bit awkward.
The sound of fighting spurred her forward, and she plunged further through the hole that Penny had made. They soon arrived at the library, entering into a massive room. There was no time to look at it, and she instead focused on the fight at hand. "June!" she cried, extending her palm and tried flaring a burst of light. Yet she doubted that it did any good, with the girls retreating in flight at the sudden arrival of reinforcements.
As the fight came to a swift end, she quickly hurried over to June. "Are you alright? What happened?" she asked. It looked like it, relatively speaking, but she could tell that the rookie was scared. Glancing around, she couldn't help the involuntary clenching of teeth at the dead bodies. Not that she was angry at June, when the rookie had been stuck in a bad situation and had just acted to defend herself with no better options. She was new after all, so one couldn't expect too much of her.
No, her real anger was directed at Mariette. First she came to them seeking their help from a threat that she had enabled and helped make even worse, purely to save her own skin. And now she was taking advantage of the girls that she had previously abducted for her own purposes. She should have shot the portal user dead when she had the chance.
She did her best to keep it repressed, and focused on the task at hand as she turned to face the others. "I don't know how, but Mariette, the portal girl serving the Horror who approached us about Justine before, she's somehow managed to get the brainwashing that Justine used on the girls they abducted to apply to herself instead. We all know what a Horror could do with an army of magical girls at it's command, so we need to stop her too if we can."
Admittedly she'd always planned to put an arrow in her back when the fight was over, but this changed things. A lot.
"My magic can shake off the brainwashing, so I can work on that. I just wish I knew how the fight with Justine was going on," she muttered, glancing around as if she could somehow see through the walls and get an indication of how the battle was progressing. If they didn't need help then they could focus on stopping Mariette. but if they were in trouble then Beacon would have to help out.

Having made her decision, Alicia was taken off guard by the hug that followed as Kimble practically latched on to her leg while bawling in gratitude. She didn't think it had been that big of a deal, especially since so much was predicated on her not knowing what kind of person Kimble actually was. It would have been easy enough for this to be a ruse. Yet right now she did not let that worry her as she tried to make up in some small way for what she had done.
"It's alright," she replied with a smile, ruffling Kimble's hair with a warm smile. "We're not as bad as our enemies would want you to believe."
Her gaze shifted to the Beckoners as they arrived and conversed, leaving her increasingly confused. It sounded like there was some sort of ongoing debate, and she was being used as an example in that debate. A humbling experience to be sure, but without knowing what they were talking about she couldn't be certain of her impact. She shook her head as the Beckoners disappeared afterwards, leaving the magical girls alone once again.
She nodded while flashing a grin towards Sylvia at her comment. "Thanks, I appreciate that," she replied with a chuckle. Not that she had been worried about it happening. She'd accepted her consequences, one way or another before the Beckoners had made their reappearance. It was about time to move on though, and Kimble wasn't really in the position to do that considering the extent of her injuries and the limited care that Alicia had been able to provide.
Before anything could be resolved regarding that, she caught sight of someone near the front door. A poor figure, emaciated, pale, and in a sorry state. "Yeah, that's us," she replied, preparing for a fight if need be. Who knew how many others Justine had brainwashed? Though if this was someone coming to fight them, they didn't look like much.
She waited patiently for the explanation, one that set her teeth grinding in a flash of heated rage. Mariette? Their 'savior'? What kind of bullshit was this? She didn't know what was going on but it was clear that the portal user was manipulating these girls that she had abducted into doing her dirty work. Extending out her hand, palm facing the girl, Alicia concentrated and released a blinding flash of light aimed directly at her, like what she had done to Doris before to try and break the conditioning.
"Mariette is no 'savior'," she replied, practically spitting out the name in anger. "I don't know what she told you, but she's only here because Justine betrayed her before she could betray Justine."
She would have said more, but it was at that point that the Beckoner reappeared, Alicia's blood freezing cold as they were told that June had been attacked. They couldn't leave a rookie to fend for herself, they needed to help her!
First she went about prying Kimble off her leg, laying her down on the ground so she could rest and not put further stress on her injuries. "You stay here. We'll be back," she told the catgirl before practically seizing the messenger by the shoulders. "You know the castle right? Where's the library? We need to get there, now." She'd stay as long as was needed to get directions before heading into the castle, a process shortened if the prisoner didn't actually know. She was not going to waste time when June was in danger, breaking into a run to try and get there as quickly as possible.
She just hoped that they weren't too late.

Many things seemed to be working in Alicia's favor now. The Enhanced Uniform that had kept her in one piece as well as protected the tools needed for her sorcery, Kimble managing to keep her injury from being lethal through her air magic, the fact that she was still alive even being noticed in the first place. She couldn't really say that this mission had gone particularly well for her, but it seemed her perseverance and patience was paying off.
She wasted no time, applying what limited aid she could while taking the advice that Penny had to offer once her friend rejoined her. It might not be the most useful, but any bit help. She was about finished by the time that Sylvia arrived, a good thing too as the situation rapidly grew more complicated.
Honestly she wasn't surprised by it. Beacon had their mission, and not everyone felt the same way as her. The group seemed divided, and she was left confused and unsure as to what she should do. She understood her duty to Beacon, but she also knew how she felt, and she couldn't just do it that easily. "I'm not sure..." she muttered with a frown, uncertainty plain to see.
Then, like the others, she was struck silent as her Beckoner made its statement. "T-Thank you," she replied, needing a moment simply to cope with the trust that was being placed in her. She did her best, but she didn't think that the Beckoners had such faith in her and her Judgment. Hearing it said, she couldn't help it as her heart rose.
But now she was faced with the decision of what to do with Kimble. She knew what she had to do, her responsibility as a member of Beacon. She'd done it before after all. But every time she looked at Kimble she could only see Doris; the shock, the pain, the confusion. She'd made a mistake then, and now she had the opportunity to make up for it. She was not going to let that pass by.
Rising back to her feet as she stored her pouch away, Alicia shook her head before looking at the others. "She's a victim, just like our sisters back at headquarters. If it weren't for Mariette and Justine we probably never would have met each other, and I'm not going to kill someone for being unlucky. No more innocents are going to die today."
She then turned to face her Beckoner. "This is my decision. We'll take her back with us, give her medical attention, and then when she's healed up we let her go on her way, to wherever she came from. After that all bets are off and I make no promises as to what happens next time we run into each other." She was sure there would be some disagreement with her decision, but with the situation at hand and what little she knew about Kimble, it was the best she could come up with. Hopefully she didn't end up regretting it

Valeran wore a satisfied smirk as the vessel they had targeted was disabled, left adrift and unable to fight back. The fighting still carried on to some degree, and they were left to decide what to do now. It would be easy enough to finish off this ship and move on, though their assistance hardly seemed needed in the battle. There were more than enough combatants on both sides to keep each other occupied.
Before she could do anything, Retris spoke up. "I'm picking up multiple gravitational anomalies forming in the immediate area. We seem to be out of their radius but I don't know how long that will last." Her projections showed what she was saying, red bubbles of space where gravity had been changed appearing and engulfing many of the ships present. Meanwhile, the rest of the ships in the area began to flee, leaving them alone for now.
Though nothing was said, she knew that the crew were looking to her for directions. There was no point in staying here, no way home that they could see. Yet they also had the opportunity to learn more about where they had ended up. It was an opportunity she would be foolish to pass by. "Retris, begin looking for a functional Phase Space Jump to a nearby system, and keep an eye on those gravitational anomalies. If they expand, we need to be prepared to leave, and there is no use in remaining in deep space."
"Understood," Retries agreed, console flickering as she focused and began looking for Jump Routes.
Valeran then turned to the other matter at hand, tapping into their communications to the disabled vessel that remained nearby. "Disabled ship, surrender your vessel and deliver yourself to the will of the Unity. Do so and you will receive fair treatment. Refuse, and you shall be destroyed."
Time to see how difficult they made this for her.

Gonna admit, I don't really know anything about Mirror's Edge besides it having parkour. But I do have a picture for a character that I think would fit, so I'm tentatively willing to throw my hat into the ring
Alicia Hayden
Taken off guard by someone who wasn't Penny, and who decidedly wasn't Mariette or any of the others that she would have expected, Alicia glanced back over her shoulder to see who it was. The initial confusion lasted for a few seconds before she recognized it as that girl from the hospital fight, who had somehow wound up here. Shrugging off the hand, she couldn't help but glare at Shannon. "I'm surprised you're here," she remarked with edge in her tone. "I figured you'd be trying to find a way to peacefully convince Justine to not destroy the world. Since people can change their ways."
Okay, yeah, she was still a bit bitter about that whole thing. She hadn't been caught in the best mood.
While Shannon made herself scarce, Alicia's attention was drawn away by the arrival of her Beckoner. Her head bowed as it remarked on what had happened, only to rise and gain a light smile at the reassurance it provided before producing the tracker she had brought with and activating it. She felt...better. She hadn't forgiven herself yet, but knowing it wasn't held against her took a weight off of her shoulders.
Rising to her feet, she did her best to compose herself, brush away her tears, and put on a strong face for the reinforcements as they had arrived. She wasn't sure how many there would be, so even the five that came through could not disappoint her expectations. "I wasn't sure how tough it would be, so I wanted to make sure you guys had a clear road to Justine," she explained ay Sylvia's comment before gesturing to the castle that was standing basically next to them. "She's in there, some of the others already went ahead so they could probably use the help."
Rubbing the back of her neck, she shot them a chagrined look. "I'd have called a bit sooner but I got dropped in a lake, and then frozen." That sort of thing was a bit of a deterrent.
Listening to the directions given, Alicia nodded before hurrying towards the castle with the others as they began. She trusted Sylvia could take care of Penny, so she wasn't going to unduly worry about that. In a fight like this, distractions could mean your death, so she needed to stay focused. Even if she was tapped out on mana, she could still be of use.
She'd only made it a few steps before she heard something that brought her short. Glancing round, her eyes widened as she spotted Kimble moving, somehow still alive in spite of getting hit so hard by the ship earlier. She wasn't going to ask how she had managed that, but she hurried over without answering Sally to get a better look. Dropping down to her knees, she looked over the magical girl to assess how bad her wounds were, before rooting through her stuff to find some of those medicinal herbs she carried as part of her hoodoo knowledge. Hopefully they had survived the swim and being frozen.
As she did so, she called back to Sally. "This one's still alive," she explained, before looking to Kimble. "Shhh, don't move. It's okay, you're safe now." She wasn't sure if Kimble could hear her, but it was worth making the effort.
Looking to Sally, she nodded towards the castle. "You go on ahead. I'm tapped out on mana so I'll catch up once I'm done here." They couldn't afford to waste time, and Sally would be more useful joining everyone in fighting Justine than she would be. That said, she returned to doing what she could for Kimble, chewing up and applying the herbs (if she could find any), and otherwise doing what first aid she knew. It would have to be a temporary fix, until they could shift her back to a Beacon medic.
Hopefully the castle didn't explode while she was busy
