*Tink* *Tink* *Tink* Malizia continued to sit next to and prod the mystical yellow and white shield that had just surrounded the foolhardy guardsmen with a big, red finger, her green, glowing fel eyes narrowed into a thoughtful look as the giant demoness eyed the barrier and the terrified folks inside with a studious expression. Though the shield was a relatively small dome shape compared to the massive demoness towering above it, preliminary attempts to crush the puny thing had proved... difficult. Under any other kind of "normal" circumstances, Malizia would have been certain she could have destroyed the petty barrier alongside the hapless fools inside! However, in this case, she knew the caster of said barrier to be none other than the most cutest, most adorable, most loveliest, most hug-e-liest, bestest girl in the entire, whole wide world! ... which obviously meant that the barrier MUST naturally be similarly impressive, I.E impenetrable! "I think there is a simpler solution to this... " Malizia commented with a malicious grin on her face as she eyed the terrified guardsmen through the barrier. There was no immediate threat from said guardsmen, as crossbows; whilst powerful, were redicilously slow to reload, usually taking up the majority of a minute. And that being before mentioning the rather obvious fact that most of the guardsmen were utterly terrified, shield or no. Moving both hands forward, Malizia would dive them both down - but not against the shield. Instead, she aimed under it, digging her large hands into the ground, going below the shield, finding the bottom of the spherical shield, before suddenly pulling it, the guardsmen, and a good chunk of dirt and cobblestone straight up from the ground. "Have you boys not learnt to not disturb a girl in her private moment?" Malizia grinned with wicked glee as she stood up on one knee, before holding the sphere with the soldiers in one hand almost like a bowling ball behind her, and suddenly tossing them to the side, causing the magical barrier to roll down the street towards the canal like a big, glowing bowling ball; the guardsmen being scrambled around inside, their voices of confusion, terror and occasional puking being muffled by the rolling sphere as it crushed anything in its path. "Now then... where were we?" Malizia said whilst grinding her hands together as if she had just taken out the trash, already moving towards Kathlin's little hiding spot while pretending to not know where the little girl was. "Now that that's out of the way, sweetie, how about we continue to consummate our brilliant lo,-" "[b]STOP RIGHT THERE, YOU FOUL DEMON BITCH! THIS IS MY[/b]... mmmhh, oh... ahem! - [b]THIS IS MY PROPERTY, AND YOUR FEL ASS IS TRESPASSING![/b]" The giant demoness suddenly turned around to look directly down at Kathlin, hovering over her with a big, tooty grin; when suddenly Serphia's voice could be heard across the garden! Malizia's face, barely ten feet above Kathlin, would suddenly stop; only to gain a look of supreme annoyance, her eyelids lowering and mouth forming to create a "I can't believe this shit" look on her face! At the bottom of the mansion, having just stepped outside, would be none other than Serphia herself - now fully clad in her battle raiments, and her twin swords hanging in their sheats on either side of her wide hips! With her black cloak flowing in the ash behind her, she raised one hand to point it accusingly at Malizia's backside as the demoness faced away. A little bit further up behind, staring out one of the windows, would be Sentinel Lithrielle, holding a heavy flower patterned bag whilst giving the whole scene a worried look. "[b]I DEMAND YOU BOW IN SUBMISSION AND PLEA FOR MY FORGIVENESS - I DO NOT TOLERATE INSUBORDINATION, BUT MOST OF ALL, I DO NOT TOLERATE PARTY CRASHERS!![/b]"
