Rufus wrenched Aspernor from the ground, ramming it into his assailant with the same move. Rufus's own strength was behind it, plus the rejection force of the shield. He made to turn his assailant as much as possible, expose a vulnerable side and ram the vorpal blade, shrunk to the length of a short sword, into his kidney.
Docks
Ayers and Johnny's weapons struck, ripping through Jones's coat...but failing to penetrate his skin.
Jones laughed. "Stupid."
He threw Johnny at Ayers and ripped off the rest of his coat...
The crocodile Faunus stood, revealing his green, leathery skin covered with scales.
Meanwhile, Davros came face to face with who appeared to be the captain of the ship. He was a rather fat old man with the tail of a stegosaurus.
As Jack brought down the goons, a large explosion threw him quite a way.
Jones's friends stood in front of Jack and Sophie. Eddie was a fox faunus complete with ears. He was holding a grenade in one hand and a walking cane in the other.
"Bit overkill." said Jon, a bored expression on his face. He had great black crow wings, and he held a trident.
The Royal Palace
The Tyranus retracted its tentacles, letting Feb crash to the ground.
Then-!
Its lance-like arm twisted and morphed until it became a strange biological bow. It shot a spike straight at the Medus's head.
It then smashed the ice on its legs with ease and charged towards Pius.
The Hunters would see a strange metal device connected on the Grimn's humanoid throat...
Olympos
With an incoherent scream, Rufus's opponent simply ignored his wound and continued to choke him.
Two more men had jumped into the fray, brandishing swords at the ginger.
At that moment-!
A massive explosion rocked the base of the tower...
Olympos has fallen
What the fuck?!?
Lucas stopped firing at the terrorists as his ears ringed from the explosion. Was these guys rushing towards them little more than a distraction, meant to keep the Hunter teams busy while they set up something inside the tower?
Only one way to find out.
"I'm going in," Lucas said into the commlink as he turned and ran towards the building.
Olympos
"Can I? I'll try my best." Remus brought the guns together as they shifted into blades and locked together the hilts with a few fancy spins. He drew an armor piercing arrow and nocked it in Artemis and fired up at the airship, and then promptly dropped to his knees from exhaustion... "Can't... Continue... With semblance..."
Cottage
Mold me? This is Sir Jade's big idea? Urujauni thought as she stared at Fay. She remained silent as she waited for the old woman to finish her thoughts and move on to something she could do; the senior was starting to creep her out.
Royal Palace
Pius launched himself over the Tyranus as it charged, firing lightning bolts at its neck as he passed over the Grimm.
"Medus, help February!" He commanded his second, continuing his volley as he began circling the Grimm. "I'll hold it off!"

Medus shifted his grip and caught the clawed strike on the haft of Nightshaker. Medus shook his head. "Geez, you're all offense and speed. Not sure I like it. Can't hardly get an attack in edgewise." Then the rocker began to glow silver and he let out a whistle, aiming to disorient rather than damage.
Royal Palace
Medus spun and sliced his axe through the spike. "Leave you alone out here? Bullshit, just because you think you can fight them alone without getting killed doesn't mean you can." The rocker than spotted the collar. Ah, so they're actually controlling that thing instead of just aiming it at us and letting it loose, still part of my plan should work.
Medus switched Nightshaker to its guitar form and blasted a semblance-enhanced power chord at the advancing troops. He looked back over his shoulder at the grimm and yelled. "Well Donkey-man? How many of your buddies to I have to take down before you start taking me seriously?"

-dramatic music ensues-"Huh..." Ayers mumbled to himself. As the Faunus chucked Johnny at him, he took several rapid steps back to dodge his opponent. The armor would prevent slashing and electricity from penetrating too far, but he now had other ideas! Ayers popped Hrunt back onto his shoulder, flexing it back into place, and turned right around. "Hang on, one second." He strode right up to one of the lampposts that dotted the street, wrapped a hand firmly around the base, and pulled, trying to pop it off for use as an improvised weapon.
Olympos
Blood, human blood, faunus blood. Glorious Grogdamn blood of man. The blood thirst was upon him, and Rufus felt the red rage coil its way through his brain. A towering figure of translucent red and rounded armor loomed over him, imitating his movements.
"Remus," His growl was even more pronounced, his words almost spoken like a snarl, "Take command."
In that same grunt, right hand blurred to his left arm, the vorpal blade retracting into the hilt and Aspernor shrinking back into a 'sheathe'. He attached it to the hilt, sliding it along his left hand so the crystal was touched, activating Sanguis. The sword spun around, bringing the bilt to his left hand, so he wielded it both hands above his head. Leaving his back exposed, he swung downward and to the left in a diagonal slash at his first assailant.
If he hit flesh, blood would spray as the rejection field along the blade's edges actively peeled apart flesh and bone alike to dig its way through. It'd make a loud hissing noise, colored by the wet sound of gore, somewhere between the sizzling of acid and the roar of a chainsaw.
"Just stay by her side, Medus!" Pius replied, not wanting anyone to retreat and lose ground against the enemy. The Nobel stopped circling and faced the Grimm head-on with his feet on the ground and gauntlets glowing cyan.
"Keep. Her. Safe!" He gritted out, tossing two spinning blades of ice at the Tyranus' neck before firing a spiked ball of frost at the area where its equine and human halves met.

As Ayers succeeded in gaining his weapon, Jones charged at Johnny and attempted to literally bite his head off.
The captain stared at Davros incredelously. "You can't take this ship! This is private property!"
Eddie laughed as he easily ducked Jack's swing. "Riddle me this...What's big and cocky and about to fall?"
His cane connected hard to Jack's balls.
The Tyranus once more dispersed the lightning with its shield arm and its other arm became an extending claw which grabbed Medus and threw him at Pius.
It then formed both arms into shields and blocked the ice coming at him.
The cannon exploded as Remus's arrow found its mark. The airship began retreating.
.....And the berserk man still hung on, even as he died while his comrades wildly stabbed at Rufus's back. Again. Again.

Pius fell over with a yell as Medus struck him and his volleys were for naught. Shaking his head to regain his focus, the Nobel looked at his opponent.
"We need to detach that shield. Keep it occupied; I'll be back!." He said to his second-in-command as he got up. Noticing his partner's absence, Pius immediately began searching for her.
"February!" He called out as he took flight, using his Semblance to spot her Aura among the battling crowd. When he found the shark Faunus, Pius landed and stood behind her so that the two had a full view of what was around them.
"How's your arm?" he asked, ready to take on the human enemies of this night.

Ieria had decided that her attentions were needed in something far more important than shedding, so she made an attempt to do it as quicky as possible. Yes there were some parts where she had to tear the dead skin free, but a few cuts and a small amount of blood were the price she would willingly pay for this mission to succeed. After getting dressed again, she headed out to find Lucretia. "Your Majesty, I was sent to guard you by my leader." She said with a polite bow as she found her.
Duel
"Close combat is my specialty. I am sorry you cannot keep up in the dance with me, Medus." She teased as she lunged at him, trying to slash again with a claw, only for his semblance to hit her and cause her to go off balance, shooting past him without even scratching him. She skidded to a halt and put a hand over her ear before glancing back at him and staring at him, sizing up her prey.
Cottage
The Old Woman snapped out of her musings and looked to Urujauni. "So child, tell me of yourself. I know your name, it is only fitting that I know more of you."
"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 SniperPalace
"Oh sure, give me the hard job." Medus muttered to himself before getting to his feet and leaping toward the monster with a trio of heavy blows aimed at its shields
Duel
Medus grinned wider. "Unfortunately for you I've seen that tactic before. Now I believe it's your turn to play defense." The rocker charged Ieria swinging his axe downward, just above her head he fired a shot adding to the swing's power and using the momentum to come up in a ready position.
-dramatic music ensues-

Royal Palace
February's left arm was rather unfortunately skewered, taking the limb out of commission as she roared in pain. She was a small person, so she didn't have much blood in her to lose. Pulling the tentacle out as she landed awkwardly, the shark faunus limped away. She didn't have much in the tank already, not after sustaining an injury like that. She had to retreat for now.
