Sechs thought for a minute. He did want to see how well he and Stormer could work together, but Yun was his partner. It would be rude to break off from Stormer but also to abandon his partner should he want to fight......decisions, decisions....
[forum cryptid: it/it's]Medical Center
"Minor?! Alfred, every little wound can cause your death in a battle...I..."
They had reached the airship, but Alexia was torn on what to do. On one hand, if she sent Alfred back there while he was wounded, he might...but Alice and Ieria were outnumbered in there, and this hospital wasn't the friendliest place for them in the first place.
Alexia bit her lip and made her decision. Before going into the ship, she turned to face Alfred.
"Al, go back in there and help Alice and Ieria, okay? But be careful! Please don't die on me..."
She reached out and kissed him on the lips. "I...I'm sorry about what happened. I love you."
She then went into the airship and imnediately looked for her Scroll and messaged both her teammates at Beacon.
Help, Arcana is here, bring my weapons!
Meanwhile, Alice narrowed her eyes as the bullet came towards her.
....Hmmmph, she wasn't going to fall for another trick. She ignored the bullet and took the shot, simply moving her body a bit so it would hit her arm. She kept all of her power focused on choking the life out of the terrorist.
And then came the shock. Alice did not see that coming. The sudden bolt made her lose concentration, dropping Fortune, and then the grappling hook tied her up like a present.
Fuck.
Beacon
Where the fuck have you been?! I was just kicked out! What was that?! demanded Mia immediately.
Meanwhile, in the arena, there was a roar as Beowolves were unleashed into the forest arena to harry the students even more.

Blocking the blade with both his sword and his axe, Johnny did his damnedest to avoid getting knocked off of his feet by the sheer momentum of the attack. Sadly, Johnny wasn't exactly strong or heavy enough to avoid being launched into the air.
Landing a few feet away flat on his back, Johnny took a moment to catch his breath before jumping back to his feet once more.
Walking towards Arthur once more, Johnny shook his head and said "That the best you got?" Before thrusting towards Arthur's stomach with his cutlass.
Firing two shots; one aimed at Nadia's head, the other at her legs, Mary didn't drop these pistols, and instead flipped them around for use as improvised clubs.
"I can't say I'm as much of a gambler as the rest of the crew, but I can't say I wouldn't object to making a deal." Responded Yusuf "What do you propose, my friend?"
Stepping back out of the way of Jing's hook, Nathaniel stepped forwards and retaliated with a big boot aimed directly at his opponent's head.
Dorm, the place without the pirates
That was unexpected, but then again Erin wasn't exactly what Glen would expect the ghost of a former enemy to be like.
Well, I dinnae ken how else tae break it to you, but when you get intae as many fights as I do gettin' hurt's just a part o' life
Pius glared at the Grimm being released into the arena, but he knew that his fellow Hunters-in-training could handle such rabble easily. But when he felt his Scroll ring in his pocket, the Nobel's eyes widened at the very mention of the word "Arcana." He tapped Medus' shoulder and told his teammate to meet him at the lockers, running out of the Arena with Dies Irae in tow.
Sending to your coordinates. Keep your Scroll on. Pius shot back at his partner as he stood in front of her locker, punching in the code to launch the container near the location of Alexia's Scroll. As the assigned hole in the roof opened up, Pius confirmed the code and stood back to let the locker fly out. After opening up a window, the Nobel looked about for Medus as he began putting on Dies Irae, preparing himself for a fight as treacherous thoughts entered his head.
Was she just baiting me with her proposal? Distracting me so they could ambush the princesses without interference? Scowling behind his helmet, Medus might come upon his armored leader staring at the floor, standing next to where Alexia's locker was, his Scroll keeping a bead on its location. It doesn't matter now. If she wasn't lying, she'll call me again. If she doesn't...then she will have a lot to answer for...

Fight Time, Fuck Your Tag Teams
Ieria hissed as Natasha fell back from her attack and The Moon Arcana stepped forward. "Sister?" She asked for a second before the Moon's dust attack started, prompting a snarl from Ieria as she reached over to Natasha with unprecedented speed, far faster than she had moved before and gripped her leg and threw her towards Moon and the dust cloud before diving away and firing a blast from her own flamethrowers.
"I am nature's weapon. You are unfit to carry on your species, and I shall ensure that you do not do so!" - Charles Darwin, XCOM SniperSuch is life.
Natasha instead of floundering and trying to stop, merely tucked her limbs in to decrease her air drag, falling to the ground faster, getting winged by the ice but for the most part avoiding the blast. When she rolled to a stop, she moved out of the firing line and lit her sword again, using it to warm her ice-touched limb to avoid future problems.
Rescue mission, Full-steam ahead!
Medus moved quickly past Pius, lightly punching him in the shoulder. "Hey, come on, focus man! Get your armor on and let's go commandeer a Bulkhead, need to get there as fast as we can!"

-dramatic music ensues-Stormer then looked at Sechs with a smirk as he heard the howling of the Beowolves, with his hand gripping the hilt of Raijin.
"So, we gonna do this thing or what?", he asked.
"Never let anyone tell you that something is impossible." - Monty Oum, 1981-2015Without even waiting for him to be ready, Pius pulled Medus up into the air and out of the building, dropping him next to an unoccupied bulkhead.
"Can you get this to start?" He asked his teammate, ready to just carry Medus there himself if he couldn't turn on the bulkhead in the next minute.

Moon ignored Natasha and focused on Ieria, her eyes still covered by her sunglasses. The tiniest hint of a smile was on her lips.
"I don't have to explain anything to you, Ieria. But for now, you can call me Moon. Moon of the Arcana."
"And now, let us have our fun, dearest sister...."
She leapt to the air, the shotgun blasts of her greaves propelling her, claws outstretched, she attempted to aim at Ieria's face.
Beacon: Glerin
Erin seemed to pout in Glen's mind.
I know that. But it doesn't mean I have to like it.
....I don't want to lose the one person who showed me even a little bit of kindness.
A pause.
I'm sorry. That was selfish of me.
Nothing is what it seems. Master of Shipping and Sadism.Well....in that case...
Natasha finished treating her arm before sheathing her sword and walking over to the various machines surrounding the room, taking medicine, circuit boards and just anything in general that looked valuable and stuffing it in a bag she was wearing slung across her body. "I'll just leave the family drama to you two." She called out as she pillaged.
Of course
Medus sat down in the pilot's seat and began flipping switches, the vehicle powering up and beginning to lift off the ground. "Of course I can get it started, I can even fly it...mostly fly it anyway. And ya know, Tin Man you could actually ask before you just pull me off into the air, it'd be nice to have a little warning one of these days." The door closed and Medus pushed the throttle forward, shooting them off towards the coordinates from Alexia.
-dramatic music ensues-Rushing through the hallways
Oh you know, not much, just universe shenanigans. Nothing to worry about.
Content with the affirmation that Mia was still inside her head, she resumed sprinting into the arena. Not pausing to open the door like a sensible person, she burst through it (luckily, it was had one of those joints that opened both ways) and immediately set out to find Ai.
Only, there appeared to be a sea of beowolves in her way. "LANDOOOOOOOOO" she screamed out, her voice a mixture of irritation and excitement. Charisse basically barged through the monochrome ocean, not aiming to kill them but instead to get them out of her way as quickly as possible.
"Gimme your pants.. and now your other pants"Fight Time
"You are no sister of mine!" Ieria replied before leaping into her as well, swiping at her with her claws as she did so, flames tracing her claws as she leapt.

With one bunch of students face down on the floor and Hope busy fending off others, Falken cheerfully got back to the fighting, nimbly weaving past bullets and attacks heading in his direction before stomping the ground, a gust of wind throwing those closing in on him up into the air.
"C'mon, I'll take you all on!"
Delivering a spinning roundhouse kick, all those hovering opponents were sent hurtling through the air before crashing down into the ground.
Hope you weren't expecting anything witty here. Maybe some day.Arrival at Medical Center
As Medus drove the bulkhead out of Vale's borders, Pius pointed at Alexia's locker and the ship assaulting the medical center.
"Rendezvous with Alexia there," He commanded as he opened the door and activated his Scroll comm to be heard over the wind. "I'll check on Princess Alice."
With that Pius jumped out and rocketed off towards the Medical Center, his Semblance scanning past the walls in search of Alice's unique Aura. When he saw that she was engaging an opponent, Pius halted mid-air before rocketing into the building, blasting through the walls until he emerged to ambush Wheel of Fortune with a freezing blast from his palms.

Yun caught Sechs' look and quickly ran through the possible outcomes before nodding. "No problem, I came late anyways." He said reassuringly, already arming Skyfire and firing at the incoming Grimm. Pausing briefly, he quickly scaled up a nearby tree and used his higher vantage point to get a better look at the area.
Now...I wonder if there's anyone else who I could partner with? he mused as he fired another burst at a nearby Beowulf, still keeping an eye out for enemies.

Medical Center: Mirror Match
Moon was all but laughing now, a wide grin on her face. Her own claws trailed frost as she matched Ieria move for move. A thrust here, a slash there, perfectly mirroring the berserker's attacks.
"You wound me, Ieria. I am closer to you than anyone else. Why, we're almost the same person!"
She launched a vicious shotgun-powered kick to her dear sister's midsection, and regardless if it hit, she would follow up with a downward swipe with her right claw.

Landing
Medus slowly lowered the Bulkhead onto an empty landing pad, setting it down with a loud scrape. The rocker winced and shrugged. I'll say Pius did it.
He exited the vehicle and looked around, locating a rather large window. "Let's hope someone is on the other side.'' Medus aimed and launched Venom grappling at a high speed towards the window, breaking through and relying on his aura to protect him. And he landed right in the middle of the room Where Alice and Ieria were.
-dramatic music ensues-(Fortune) Alexandros Medical Center
Fortune hit the ground and stood. She twirled her pistol in her hand.
"I've heard stories about you. But you're not really unkillable, are you?" Fortune said.
Fortune casually sauntered over to Alice, unhooked her shears and twirling them menacingly in her hand before opening them wide up and taking the other handle. It was time for Atropos to cut Alice's thread of life—
"Now it's time for you to go down to the locker," Fortune said.
—had Pius not interfered. Fortune raised her arm to protect herself and received a blast of frost. She stiffened, finding it much more difficult to move. Seeing no better opportunity, Fortune reeled in her grapple to pull Alice towards her and try to take Alice hostage with a gun to the head.

Fight Time
Ieria snarled once more as she and Moon engaged in aerial combat, while the clone was clearly exuberant when it came to combat, Ieria held the edge due to the ferocity her semblance imposed on her mind. To demonstrate such, after she twisted around the shotgun-blast-kick, the snake faunus would attempt to grab her "sister's" body and chuck it straight at the ground.
Regardless of how that turned out, she would snap her head up to see Pius and Medus enter the area. "Assist The Princess!" She called out to them before rushing back at her "sister."
"I am nature's weapon. You are unfit to carry on your species, and I shall ensure that you do not do so!" - Charles Darwin, XCOM SniperUpon seeing Fortune tug at the bound princess, Pius' hand went down in a chopping motion as let out a yell of effort, sending a sharp green blade of Dust-powered air to try to cut the wire. Regardless of the result, the Nobel immediately shot forwards afterwards in a rocket-boosted dash to slam the Major Arcana against a wall.
Allurand and surrounding world loading, 28%...Medical Center
This was utterly embarassing. Her performance was pathetic. Had she really gotten so soft?
Apparently, her power responded to rage, because when Alice screamed in frustration, a wave of psychic energy tore her bonds apart before Fortune could reel her in like a fish.
Unfortunately, she was still in a bad position, but at least she was out of immediate danger. Still unable to stand up, she focused her power on the pieces of glass on the floor, the window smashed by Pius's arrival. She shot the deadly shrapnel towards the enemy's throat. A killing blow.
Meanwhile, Moon let herself be thrown...before gracefully landing on her feet, then blasting Ieria with her ice from below. Even if she did manage to melt it with her flames, she should still be distracted enough to not be able to react to the uppercut to her face when she came close enough.
She smiled at the recently arrived Medus.
"Hello-! Do you recognize me?"
Beacon: Glerin
Erin mentally blushed at being called sweet. Glen would definitely feel her embarassment.
I...I suppose...it won't be too bad. Just...umm...be careful.

Nothing is what it seems. Master of Shipping and Sadism.What?
Medus stared at Ieria's opponent who looked an awful lot like Ieria. What the hell is going on here? Of course instead of saying that he merely kept the confused expression before talking. "No idea, is there any reason I should? Look I realize I've picked up a lot of women at bars but it's not like I keep a mental list of all of you."
Natasha meanwhile had seen Medus and quickly wrote a little note for him to find later before sneaking out the exit and heading towards the stairs. This will be fun.

Medical Center: Escape
"I'm fine Alexia, He only barely bruised my foot, I can still fight, just as I can run. Don't worry about me." Alfred said, opening the door leading to another one of the rooms. He looked at it before turning to Lexi again.
"And don't go back on your word. Stay in the ship once we get there, protected. Don't go back because of some stupid incredibly minor wound. Alright?" He said with a serious look on his face. After she answers he'll hold her hand again to make a final run towards the ship.
