Jake, Ammy, and Hunter|Crocus City
The moment Jake heard Hunter call out about the tornado, he'd stopped everyone and jerked the Dragon Slayer back into the alley way they'd just exited. They watched it go by and then observed as Phoenix Wing, presumably without formulating an actual plan as fit the guild of improvisation, launched an attack only to have it rebuffed and countered in essentially that order. With that, Jake already had his Shatterer's hand axes in his hands and turned to the others.
"I have a better idea, Jackie, one that's going to be straight forward. You and Zephyr, find the rest of Phoenix Wing and do whatever you can to keep them from joining in the fight. I'd like us to win this thing, so I'd rather not be contesting with two guilds at once. Meanwhile," he turned to Ammy and Hunter, smiling at the former knowingly,
"we'll do things they way Ammy and I did handling a giant flying beast on the Zorack Plateau. Ready?" Hunter had no idea what the S-Class mage was talking about, but nodded and Ammy prepared her spell, a purple energy gathering around the scythes of their blades and Hunter's fists covered in his trade mark jade.
Focusing a moment, Jake closed his eyes before raising the hand axes as giant earthen hands rose up and grabbed the middle of the tower from either side.
"Shatterer's Binding Grips." With the tower immobilized, and a relatively secure manner of climbing it secured, at least for the time being. Not wasting any time, the trio rushed for the arms of earth and Jake created a platform for them to ride up. The gemstones used to bind the bricks of the tower together kept Jake from properly manipulating them and not for the first time he wished he was a proper elemental mage.
"So this is how you handled the giant flying beast?" Ammy nodded, her spell still waiting to be unleashed.
"It was, though the beast lacked a proper means to attack us at range. This will be most educating." Hunter groaned at her choice of words.
"She meant fun by that, right?"Damian Gerard|Crocus City
Damian didn't even get a chance to register and reply to what was happening before both Nolan and Penny had taken off into the sky to assault Frenzy Plant's floating fortress of most definitely impending doom. The only thing he could think to say sound ridiculous as he yelled it after them.
"Have you both gone stark raving MAD?!" A combined attack answered the question and Damian sighed, turning to the others as Joshua spoke and found Trinity gone as well. He even had to bite back a quip at the hypocrite remark.
"Be sure to remind Nolan of that after the games, Josh. Back on track, my original idea went to hell when that fortress arrived. Any back up we might have come up with by pooling ideas got buried and burned into nothingness when Nolan took off and Penny gave chase. That said, I might have an a idea. Trinity iss familiar with my riding blade, which is our ticket u-WHAT THE HELL?!"Even as three spell counter attacked their guild mates and blocked by Trinity, two giant hands of Earth reached up and grabbed the flying tower, locking it into place. At this point, Damian considered saying fuck it and hiding in the nearby book store until someone came down, but ultimately decided against it.
"Alright, well, minus the giant earthen hands, my plans the same. We right to the back of the tower on my Striker Blade out of sight of the mages on top and cut our way in through the back at the bottom, work our way up and surprise all the others. At some point, someone needs to tell Penny, Nolan, and Trinity to land on top of the tower at the point where they aren't dodging spells anymore. Objections?"
