[B][Color=00ffff]Skills: [/color][/b]Armored ground and aerial combat
[B][Color=00ffff]Equipment: [/color][/b]Shieldmaiden armor[/center][hr]

[Color=00ffff][i]F******* piece of s**** paranormal a*******![/i][/color] Victoria managed to think as she was tossed at Zari. With a massive clang she bounced right off, bewildered at how the hell did she get completely rerouted by a [b]sword[/b]. [Color=00ffff][i]I know it can transform into a flashlight pretty much ignoring the conservation of mass, but this is ridiculous! What is that thing made of, solidified defiance and hate?[/i][/color] She did not have too much time to think aobut it any more as she smacked right into the muddy ground.

Alright. She has had enough. Kiddie gloves were coming off. [Color=00ffff][i]Hit me with telekinesis? Fine, let's see how you like your own medi-[/i][/color]

[code]VEIL warning: Impact force exceeded human safety parameters. Idle period of 5.34 seconds is recommended to maintain cover.[/code]

[Color=00ffff][i]I am soooo over this stuff![/i][/color] Vicky groaned internally, but followed the recommendation. To her own detriment, as she felt herself being yanked again. This time Rada missed and Vicky zoomed across the room before imprinting a Vicky-shaped dent into the wall behind the judges. She freed herself from the broken masonry and brushed some of the red brick dust off. [Color=00ffff][i]♫ I came in like a wrecking ball! ♫ Oof. This will take some repairing.[/i][/color] she thought as she skirted around the judges.

Then that dreaded blare filled her audio receptors, as her diagnostics registered her power dropping. Her gaze snapped towards Abby, who was still severely beaten from Leah walloping her earlier. [Color=00ffff]"You just can't leave well enough alone? You have to make me do it!"[/color] she projected her voice out loud, raising her arms up and slashing repulsor beams over her assailant. One missed, but the other finally succeeded in knocking the power leech out. As she watched Abby's lights go out, a good portion of her self respect died an agonizing death. Being such a failure over the last few weeks hurt. But this, this really took the cake. She asn't even learning what [i]not[/i] to do from this.

This fucking contest. And everyone who had something to do with it! A bunch of Usagis, every single one of them! Abby would be just about bedridden for a week before her bruised chest and pounding head stop hurting. Victoria understood that hero work was tough. But how would a beating like this motivate anyone to actually do it? She has had enough. Snarling in anger, she powered up her chest projector and slashed another shot over Jyoti while she was struggling with Diana's bind, knocking her out cold as well.

Looking over the field, she did a quick count. Jyoti, Abby, Momchil and Sveva were out cold, and Leah managed to entrap Rada in another cage. Even if the Colosette managed to break out, she would be piled on by everyone else. She turned to the judges, anger not leaving her her voice: [Color=00ffff]"Call the match already!" [i]Or you're fucking next![/i] "Don't you have any better hobbies than watching kids get beaten?!"[/color]

[hider=Personal notes]
[code]
- What even is the point? I can't do anything right.
- The above? Forget it! I am chewing them the hell out and then giving them a choice. Follow me, or decide whom else to follow. But I am done with this anarchy!
- Props to Ed though. Armored up, stuck to cover, you know, LEARNED from what I was trying to impart to them. In the absence of direction, found something to do within his skillset that actually helped with the objective. I support THAT kind of initiative.
- Also commend Leah for the armor and the wall. It turned an open field slugfest into defending the castle scenario, that gave us a leg up.
- Best to start that meeting with the positives before tearing them a new one =)
- Spend a few more nights on the range and in the gym rather than the workshop, Vix!
- I will raise hell. I can't believe how disgusting this whole thing is, and I can't believe it took me two years to notice!
