[h1][color=Crimson][center]Argus Leandros[/center][/color][/h1] As every set to trying to damage the creature in someway, Argus was placing one more lacrima within the creature's shoulder-ish area when, suddenly, the entire thing rumbled, apparently tired of playing target for them all. Unfortunately for Argus, who was by far the closest to the creature, he had very little time to react before the flesh he clung to turned into a barrage of fetid spears, stabbing clean through him in several places and filling his body with a pervasive and draining poison. The tendrils would take him crashing to the ground and would leave him pinned there for a moment, the pain making him unable to properly think for a moment. Then, a line of crimson flames would erupt to life around him, destroying the tendrils as well due to the the Commander's reduction of it's magical resistances. However, that did little to settle the problem of the very big holes in Argus' gut, arms, and legs, something which had the young mage screaming in primal agony, but with his rage came power as he focused all of his energy into his wounds, causing them all to spit out tongue's of crimson flame as he struggled to stand, his legs so close to giving out that he had to divert some energy to re-quipping Crimson Nightmare to serve as a sort of crutch, leaning his weight agianst the Dragon bone blade as his magic began to cleanse his body of the sickness that had invaded it. However, the process was hardly a gentle one in and of itself, and he knew that in doing this, as his powers currently were, he'd be unable to do much in the way of moving without doing more harm to his body than good. Besides, as he saw the other guild members launch their attacks at the abomination, he felt that his help wouldn't be needed. [color=Crimson][i]Especially once they set off my little surprises.[/i][/color] As such, Argus would sort of hobble his way over to where the Commander currently was, his teeth clenched as his wounds began to close-up, the poison now purged from his system, and he knew he had little time before the aftershocks hit him, and he'd rather be in safe hands before that happened. [i][color=Crimson]Well, safer than that giant abomination of nature, anyway[/color][/i] [hr] [i]While this was happening . . . [/i] [hr] As all of Frenzy Plant began to unload upon the creature, their combined attacks would set off the three lacrima that Argus had managed to place inside of the creature's body, each one shining brilliantly within it's fetid depths before letting loose their payload. In the creatures thigh, torso area, and somewhere near it's shoulder, three small, but concentrated, explosions of multi-colored fire would burst through the surface of the creature's flesh, setting it alight with fire as it was soon followed by more and more explosions, each one shooting upward both inside and outside the creature aways before exploding into a dazzling light show. These fireworks, normally, wouldn't do much to such a thing after the initial explosion. However, these fireworks were made using much more destructive magics then the garden variety ones, and as such, while they looked much cooler than even the fireworks one would find at events, they were also several times more dangerous than those ones as well, and were very, very illegal, a fact Argus was not aware of when he had been given them as part of his payment for a job(the person in question simply trying to pawn them off to someone else when authorities showed up to check him). As such, the damages they'd reap on the creature, while probably less significant than that of the other attacks being launched at it, would definitely hurt the creature and, at the very least, create some openings for others to take advantage of. Also, it'd make the entire battle feel a tad more festive(expect for Gaberial, who was actually kind of in a lot of danger due to the fact that some of the fireworks would be flying [i]at him[/i] as they escaped the beast.) [hr] As the others fought, Argus would basically walk over to the mainforce of Frenzy Plant's forces, and then promptly collapse, barely keeping himself from crying out as his wounds suddenly flared with intense agony as the healing finally finished. He kept from fainting, but unless someone patched him up or he decided to push more of his energy into himself, he wouldn't be getting up anytime soon, having spent as much of the reserves as he could use with his current seal in place.
