[DotSlash]

Seeing the claws glint out of the corner of her eye, Carmen quickly retreated backward, flapping her wings and kicking up a bit of dust as she slid backward, Kenna's claws slicing through Carmen's hair, leavings more than a few silver threads floating in the air and eventually onto the ground. The wolfgirl's claws also managed to scratch one of her horns, though the effect of this would barely be noticeable.

After her escape, Carmen would be a few yards away, letting out a small sigh of relief. [color=bb0066] "You're rather scary, dear, trying to tear me up like that..." [/color] She said, putting on a small pout. [color=bb0066] "Can't you go easy on me?" [/color] If Kenna stared into Carmen's eyes, she'd begin to feel like submitting was a good idea.

 

[Gearhead mk2]

Kenna got up, a few of Carmen's hairs still on her claws. She looked at Carmen, starting to feel the effects of her manipulation, but looked away and tried to clear head of Carmen's magic and her own wolf side, her claws reverting back into human hands. "Sorry, but we're in the middle of a match here. You wanted me to go easy on you, should've said at the start."

 

[DotSlash]

Carmen sighed a bit, eyes going half-lidded. [color=bb0066] "Alright then..." [/color] The feeling of submission would take a bit of time to clear from her head. Seizing the moment that Kenna had looked away, Carmen rushed in and feinted a straight punch toward her temple and then pulled her arm back quickly, waiting for Kenna to react. [color=bb0066] And wait for iiiiit.... [/color]

 

[Gearhead mk2]

Seeing Carmen run towards her out of the corner of her eye, Kenna fell for the fake-out and raised both arms to block, also covering her head.

 

[DotSlash]

As Kenna brought up a block, Carmen shifted her weight and swung a hard shin kick toward the back of Kenna's knee, aiming to make the woman stagger or trip.

 

[Gearhead mk2]

Kenna was hit by the kick and staggered, arms splayed out in an effort to regain her balance or at least grab Carmen and take her down with her.

 

[DotSlash]

Still recovering from her attack on Kenna's knee, Kenna's flailing took Carmen down to the ground with a small whimper coming from her. She quickly kicked wildly at Kenna's side, hoping to get some distance from the wolf girl.

[hr]

Pix sighed a bit, noticeably calmer than before before looking to the screen again. [color=80bb00] "...Huh, thought you said most people in here used guns. That doesn't look to be the case here." [/color] She said, looking toward Solaris questioningly.

 

[Gearhead mk2]

Doing her best to ignore the pain, Kenna shifted her arms back into claws, then grabbed at Carmen and tried to dig her claws into the succubus' gut.

 

[DotSlash]

Carmen growled as she managed to hold Kenna's claws back before they tore too deeply into her sternum. Grappling the wolfgirl, hands interlocked, she stood back up as the two were in a deadlock. Carmen stared directly at Kenna, eyes half lidded as her gritted teeth eventually turned into a smirk. She lightly liked her lips. [color=bb0066] "...I think I'm starting to fall for you, dear..." [/color] She whispered softly. If Kenna looked into her eyes again, the feeling of submitting to her would return.

 

[Chungus]

"Well, as I said, I thought the silver-haired woman was dead, and that would've dropped the number of people who don't use them." Solaris explained after initially humming questioningly in response. "In the short time I've been here, I've seen three people with a gun, against two who don't, myself included in the second catagory. And besides, they may have agreed to a friendly fi--" Near the sentance, Solaris trailed off upon seeing Kenna try to eviscerate Carmen. "Never mind that..."

 

[Gearhead mk2]

Kenna stood up with Carmen, claws still in the succubus. Her head was down, but as Carmen spoke, Kenna looked up just for a split second to flash Carmen a psychotic smirk. Her eyes were wide open, and her pupils were the size of pinpricks. "Sorry, you're not my type." She turned her hands so that her claws were facing upwards, then slashed upwards, aiming to hook her claws under Carmen's ribcage.

 

[DotSlash]

Feeling the claws twist in her gut, Carmen grunted and clamped down her grip using her full strength to keep Kenna's arm where it was and eventually trying to pull it out, the claw still ripping tissue out of her. She sighed a bit before smiling back. [color=bb0066] "That's a shame. That look in your eyes is getting me all hot..." [/color] She said smiling back, her pupils getting just as intense. As she held Kenna's arm back, a magic circle opened up in front of the open part of her palm, aimed down toward Kenna's feet. [color=bb0066] "7th Circle...:" [/color] The circle glowed for a moment before shooting a blast of demonic energy straight toward Kenna's feet. [color=bb0066] "Violence!" [/color]

Regardless of if it hit or not, the blast would kick up a lot of dust and blow a small hole in the ground. Afterward, Carmen would try to fly up several feet in the air under the smokescreen, flapping her wings steadily as blood dripped from the hole in her stomach. She held a hand over it and sighed to herself. [color=bb0066] I wanted to try and not use this... but my hand's been forced... [/color]

[hr]

Pix leaned back as she noticed the intensity intensifying. [color=80bb00] "...Yeah, that's... not friendly in any sense... Though it looks like someone knows magic after all..." Not good... "Who else did you see who used a gun?" [/color]

 

[Gearhead mk2]

Kenna was thrown back by the energy blast, landing roughly a shot way off. She stood slowly, nursing her now limp left arm and struggling to stay upright. She looked for Carmen through the dust, her ears shifting into canine ears.

 

[Chungus]

Solaris scowled upon seeing Carmen rip Kenna's claws from her abdomen, and to keep up the act of being meek and new to bloodshed, looked partially away from the screen, turning her head to the left and lowering it slightly. Her hair hung in a way that obscured Solaris' face to Pix. "Yes... It's safe to say this escelated greatly..." Well, well, well. She commented as she watched, taking note of everything going on. To be so fierce, when she lost so much blood... It's enough to make me wish I didn't change allies when there was still a doubt in my mind. Oh well. "As for others who use guns, some man with prostettic arms, a blonde woman, and a juggernaught of a man."

 

[DotSlash]

Carmen continued to hover above as the smoke cleared, a magic circle beginning to form underneath her feet. The flapping of Carmen's wings would give Kenna a pretty good read on where the succubus was flying, about 10 ft. up and noticeably distanced from her. Her flying continued to hold steady though the succubus looked fatigued by the damage she had taken. Noticing Kennas soul through the smoke, she smiled to herself [color=bb0066] ...Alright... what will you do now, dear? [/color]

[hr]

As Solaris looked away, Pix blinked a bit. [color=80bb00] "....Oh... are you squeamish? ...Jeez, I didn't think people were this brutal." [/color] She tilted her head a bit as she gave out the list of gunners in the group. [color=80bb00] "...A juggernaut? With a gun? ...Oh boy..." [/color]

 

[Gearhead mk2]

Hearing Carmen's wings flapping, Kenna looked around, zeroing in on her position. Using her good arm, she reached down to her leg and drew her pistol, firing at the approximate location of the succubus. Between the smoke obscuring her vision, her injured state, and her naturally mediocre marksmanship, most of the bullets would be way off, but it was more to harass Carmen and force her to the ground.

 

[DotSlash]

As Kenna opened fire, Carmen scoffed and flapped downward, landing onto the ground as the bullets whizzed overhead. The circle under her feet completed as she sighed to herself. [color=bb0066] "5th Circle:... Anger!" [/color] The demoness' dagger glowed brightly for a moment before a circle slowly moved outward from it horizontally, created a red blade of energy that seemed to pulse as Carmen wielded it. She slowly made her approach forward as the smoke began to clear, still holding her hand over the wound and wincing at the pain as her blood left a sparse black trail behind her.

 

[Gearhead mk2]

Hearing Carmen land, Kenna holstered her pistol, then watched the succubus walk towards her as the smoke began to clear. Kenna slowly walked backwards, waiting for Carmen to make the first move.

 

[Chungus]

"I've seen horrible accidents and dead bodies before when I was still a reporter, so I've soon some blood, but this was always from afar, with police tape between me and it. When it's so close to home...? Yes, I'm supose I am. I'm not a fighter, I don't have the stomach for these kinds of things." Solaris answered while watching the fight. "The fact that it could be me in their position isn't helping..."

Seeing Kenna draw her pistol, Solaris looked towards Pix, putting on something of a horrified face. Although it was hard to notice, Solaris' eyes didn't quite match the expression she was faking, as they were too still and focused. "It looks like that makes four people with a gun..." She said before looking back to the screen and lowering her head to obscure her face again.

 

[DotSlash]

Seeing Kenna back off, Carmen raised her sword into the air and then slashed it forward along the ground. A small torrent of demonic energy sped across the ground toward Kenna, only being as tall as the average table. The wave was still rather speedy and would hurt quite a bit once it hit.

[hr]

Pic raised an eyebrow as she noticed Solaris' eyes. [color=80bb00] You don't seem that surprised... "...Right. Just another person to keep an eye on..." [/color] Pix sighed, rubbing the back of her head and producing a somewhat soft rubbery sound as she did. [color=80bb0] "...I'm sorry to hear you've been stuck into this position. ...Maybe I can try to help you out a bit when you fight?" [/color]
