Being jostled awake suddenly, and rudely, Vanessa let out an elongated yawn, sitting up stretching her arms above her head, before looking around the msall inn-room with tired, unamused eyes. She hadn't exactly fully recovered from their little escapade earlier that day, but there would apparently be no rest for the wicked, as her employer suddenly burst out of their room due to the noises made from the roof above their heads.

[color=lightblue]"... You're coming straight to us, and so soon? Couldn't you just have gone with us when we came to pick you up earlier then, boy..."[/color] Vanessa muttered in a grumpy, sleepy voice, rubbing her eye with one hand. Apparently, she was not a morning person... Or at least, not a 'fresh and perky right after waking' sort of girl.

She recognized the aura and energy signature of the man on the roof almost instantly. After all, it was [i]very[/i] distinct. Still, if he was going to jump into their laps and present himself on a silver platter, who was she to complain? Getting out of bed - finally - the dark mage strolled over to the nightstand near the bed, plucked her hat and plopped it onto her noggin', before  grabbing her staff that'd been placed to lean against the nearby wall. Now fully geared up, she too exited the two monsters room and porceeded to exit the establishment.

She arrived just in time to hear Iskah's comment. It would seem their rival had caught up with the two and was now trying to get a leg up on them.  The dark mage wrinkled her nose and furrowed her brow.

[color=lightblue]"He really likes running away from his problems, huh?"[/color] The sorceress commented, watching the Incubus Knight flee from the orange embers of the other reptilian monster girl. Still, now was no time to make witty banter or snarky one-liners. Turning to face Iskah, the dark mage held out a hand and spoke clearly.

[color=lightblue]"Enhancement: Superior Physical Boost."[/color] A bright, golden glow shone from Vanessa's hand and then raced out of it, leaping to iskah and into her. The lizardman could feel a surge of energy, as if she was being pumped full of adrenaline, steroids and brand-name energy drinks all at once. [color=lightblue]"There you go, sweetness. Now, go, I'll follow and lend you support."[/color] Saying that, Vanessa straightened her posture, closed her eyes, took a breath and spoke again in aa clear tone. [color=lightblue]"Enchant: Finite Flight."[/color]

A teal-ish aura engulfed the wizardess' hands, before travelling over and spreading across her staff. Then, placing it horizontally in mid-air, just at pelvis-height, Vanesas porceeded to seat her tush onto the item, as if it were a witch's broom. Since she hadn't fully recovered yet, and since she'd given Iskah a rather powerful buff to the lizardman's physical attributes, she didn't want to risk casting a 'fly'-spell on herself. Instead, having a 'flying tool' that'd have time limit on flight would have to suffice. After all, they just needed to get onto the rooftops too anc get inbetween the Salamongrel and Aun. Which Iskah should be more than capable of leaping into with the help of Vanessa's magic, and Nessa herself could lazily just float up and over in pursuit of her ally whenever she decided to go.
