[hr]

Four more shots rang in the air.

As Val lunged for the Ravager and his empty gun, he'd be able to see out of the corner of his eye two bodies that had collapsed on the ground. Teresa and an unknown - a dark-skinned man with dreads. Both just… gone.

The Ravager shrieked, chucking his gun at Val and pulling out his own dagger a moment too late. The next instance later, the Ravager was on the ground, unmoving. Three dead bodies. And Val's kill count for the day increased to one.

One problem, however.

As the Ravager fell, three more took his place, guns raised and one diving at him with a knife.

Inu’s voice was swift as Wren- as Ferz, grew vines around VV and A. [color=lightgreen][b]”Seirael na, thaela Umbra dhaelar, tel’sir ior nan en’alarei! Tesh ylir esia! [i](Grab them, those Umbra girls, and get on my back. We must leave at once!)[/i]”[/b][/color]

Looking more closely at the two Umbra test subjects, one would be pleased to see that A's attack had succeeded, and Wren's attack had shielded. The Ravager holding the gun let out a pained whimper as his gun dropped, hands moving to stop the blood flowing from his nose and ears. He quickly fell to his knees. The other two Ravagers attempting to grab the girls were pushed back by the vines, hissing and screaming in discontent. Immediately, twelve bullets from their guns were aimed at Wren. 

[b]”Die, you black heart!”[/b] One of them yelled.

Before they were blindsided by a wave of shadow, all at the courtesy of VV, squinting through the thick vines.

She turned to A, [b]“That was [i]awesome[/i], but we really gotta get outta here.”[/b]

The molotov sailing towards Mimi was an unfortunate bottle. You see, it already had a fine crack along the side. So the slight flick of pressure, of a tail, caused the molotov to explode. Fire and liquid caught on Mimi's tail feathers, smoke sputtering. Dex looked on triumphantly, but before he could make his next move, Le Fray raised a device in the air, and pressed its button.

Immediately, a shriek of a thousand souls emanated outward, vibrating the very air. Each Ravager was visibly overcome, falling to the ground with their hands over their eyes and ears, weeping.

Le Frey wasted no time, motioning for Val to come over to Inu. Everyone needed to mount the dragon, and then they'd fly out of the garage door. He'd ensure Val got on, and he knew Wren would ensure the Umbra girls and Mimi would get on. And if their charge still had any hesitations about taking a trip to the Ghost Corp HQ… well, he'd deal with them right here and now.

They had to act quickly. Already, some of the Ravagers were realizing they weren't in immediate danger, heads peeking up…
