The next few seconds unfolded as fast as Su could think. She blew Centrocious off the side of the wall, raised her shield just in time to block an attack from Lenore, Before the nun was replaced by Silmeria. She barely had time to blink before Arzendale invoked his next spell. There was no time to think. Su was working entirely on instinct when she raised her shield and prepared to defend her ally from the hail of blood. This wasn't going to be like last time when she left Samuel to defend Silmeria. Su would position herself in front of the attack. It would hurt, but she was better equipped to deal with it than anyone else. During this entire debacle, nearly every member of her squad had been hurt in one way or another. But Su knew that she wouldn’t be able to. While she had a modicum of self preservation due to Mika, Silmeria had nothing. Su didn't know Silmeria that well, but it was evident in all her actions. She took every opportunity to fire and never used her magic for anything other than offense. Even when she was going to burn alive, even now with an avalanche of blood upon them. But even if she could place herself in front of Silmeria, she knew how important it was to end Arzendale before he did any more harm. If he survived, Wukong and Jacqueline’s slim chance of survival would be extinguished. It seemed hopeless. Ashley was gone, Jaquiline was part of a blood spell, she couldn't even see Lilliah, and Silmeria would become a slave to an unfortunate fate. Maybe Su could do something about it. While Silmeria raised her gun to fire, Su thumped her shield on top of her wall. The one advantage she had was that touch melodies were among the fastest to activate, and she was sure she could beat out the projectile or beam Silmeria was using for this attack. The castle hadn’t steered Su wrong yet, might as well expand on her kingdom of debri. The wall shifted ans swirled as the wall grew a barrier. It sprouted in front of Silmeria, curling around her barrel so as to not disrupt her aim. Su was well aware that her melody would not stand up to the vampire’s assault for long. But maybe it could buy her an extra second. The wall also sprouted a few other features. Directly behind Su and Silmeria was now a platform that joined with the ramp behind them. Wukong would also be shielded by a platform that extended out of the side of the wall. A staircase that went from the top and most the way down to the bottom. Due to the length of the wall, this was the best Su could manage. A means of descending the wall later, or for Wukong to scramble up to if she still had the strength. Once Silmeria fired, Su would move behind her, hugging her stomach with one arm and holding up her shield with the other,all while backing away from the construction she had made. Even if it had held, some of that blood was going to get through the hole she left for Silmeria’s rifle. As the blood broke through Su’s barrier, she tried to let the avalanche of blood push her back. Rolling with a punch like a boxer might do. The further they got from the wall’s edge, the more Arzendale had to shoot through. But Su kept a tight grip on her pistol. It was only a matter of time before that nun came for them, if she wasn't fighting Samuel again.
