???"Agh... my head," Trixie muttered, peeling herself off the wall her ride had careened into. Sheer horror had gripped onto her as she rode the summon like a bull just moments before Lucien managed to maneuver it into somewhere safe. More than once she had nearly fallen into the abyss below, and she could only breathe relief as she had been spared that fall. ... Until she realized Selan, Lucien, and Xandra had plummeted straight into it.
"No!" she cried out and began to hop across platforms and panels of all shapes. But it was far too late - the three were far too out of reach. Trixie skid to a stop though when suddenly the cog she ran atop began to plummet at a nasty speed. She yelped at this, hunkering down and grabbing onto an edge to protect herself. The fall ended with buoyancy, as if she were on a water ride - and the prankster could easily see everyone around her. Including the three that had fallen. "Ohh thank cheezits for th... huh."
Now the cog she stood upon began to shrink. She quickly jumped to her feet and backed into the center. "Wh, what's going on?" Was she sinking?
A crow cried out overhead, and behind her she could hear something splat on another, larger platform. The black goop morphed into an indistinguishable figure - although its voice was what pierced her. "Trixie... come this way. I will help you."
She didn't think. With the platform beneath her nearly gone, she leapt for the figure's outstretched hand - only to be yanked roughly out of the air and tossed behind it with superhuman force. Trixie shrieked as she soared through the skies, heading straight towards where Moira and Syed were perched.
"Xandra!" Amy called out as the metallurgist was met with the same fate as Lucien and Selan, all of whom had began tumbling down into the abyss below. She had managed to protect the fallen Lisette from any further injury with a small barrier, but the other three were... It wasn't long before all the other platforms in midair dropped as well, now resting atop the abyssal sea. The three were safe, but for how long before everyone sank?
And then... was that... Largo? Amy could only watch with anxiety as the massive man moved to attack Estelle, doing enough to thankfully send her flying back, as opposed to severing her entirely. Then he proceeded to attack Aria and Lute. The former's arm was gashed - a minor wound compared to what could've would've been if she had not moved in time - but the duo managed to escape in time.
Amy snarled as she chanted a healing spell. Her eyes trailed along the illusionist's path, watching as the gash on her arm began to glow a golden hue. Warmth gripped the wound before sinking into it, and within moments the pain was numb. The blood too had stopped, though the cut was not wiped away entirely. Amy let out a silent breath of relief - her healing prowess was improving.
"Lisette, come on, let's keep moving." Like Aria, Amy too did not know where else to head to - only that they had to keep on their feet. With the mass beneath her feet sinking, she weaved her way to the platforms nearest to her to find Selan nearby. Once Amy found a stable enough mass, she stood still and hummed a brief spell for the dancer in hopes of getting her back on her feet. Thankfully Lucien and Xandra were close by as well.
But... Marcus and Don were still hidden amongst this sea of debris. Amy snarled to herself. "Where the fuck are they?"
