Ambush (Pt. II)
--
She quickly grew a pair of light-based wings and flew towards Vinnetra, catching him in time before he fell.
"Huaaa!!! Shizuka, I owe youuuuu!!!!!!!" Vinnetra cried out while he clung onto her arms. He'll probably rip them apart if it wasn't for being human. She grunted and struggled hard to get the black-haired male to Isseiris.
"Ugh! Vin-san! You're heavy!!!" she let the boy go as he was caught by the light-blue-haired male while Shizuka searched for the other male.
The ash-blonde was seen pretty annoyed about the whole thing that he ended up jumping from one Telarock to another until he finally reached the girl. "Huh? What are you doing here?" Orion questioned dumbfounded, earning an awkward chuckle from the girl.
"Haha... I was going to get you to the others... Should I carry you there, Orion-san?"
"'Carry?'!" Orion seemed to get the wrong idea as his face became beet red as fumes came out of his ears.
"E-Eh?! Orion-san?! Wha--?!!" Orion passed out in front of her as she caught him before he fell and got ran on by the Telarocks, 'What just happened?!'
"Urgh...! H-Heavy...!" Shizuka quickly flew to the other two and her wings disappeared, causing the girl to barely made it to the others.

"Orion?! What happened?!" Vinnetra exclaimed in concern, checking the unconscious male's temperature, "Ah, heck! He's burning!!!"
"A fever?"
"His face is all red..." Isseiris said as they became quiet. Eyeing the male, Shizuka sighed and Vinnetra flopped down. Isseiris pinched the bridge of his nose as he quickly put up a barrier.
"Urgh!!"
"WAKAKAKKAKAAK!!!! YOU HAVE QUICK REFLEXES I SEE~ LET'S HAVE SOME FUN!!!!" an unknown individual snatched Isseiris away with a pinkish, bubblegum-like rope from the group as the other two stared in disbelieve. Orion was still unconscious and off to dreamland.
"Hmm... I think I'll take you with me~ You're quite cute~" another one, presumably a female, also took Vinnetra away as Shizuka and Orion were left alone with two unknown others.
"Gah!! Who are you?! Don't touch meeeee!!!" Blood needles flew everywhere as Vinnetra was trying to get away from the woman. "No can do, little doll~ We are going to have the best time in the world playing together~," the woman teasingly spoke as she put her index finger on her lips.
"HAAAHHHH?! NO, WE'RE NOT!!! HOW OLD ARE YOU ANYWAY?!" Seemingly triggered, the woman attacked the younger male as he stumbled, "It's not polite to ask a lady her age!!! Hiaaa!!!"
"Gah!! What are you?! A monster??!!"
.

While they were doing that and Isseiris fighting his opponent, Shizuka just had a staring competition with her two opponents. No one said anything or even moved. Orion woke up little by little as he grunted quietly, "Ugh... What happened...?"
"Orion-san! Are you okay? You passed out earlier," Shizuka informed calmly and kept her crystal-blue eyes on her enemies, standing in front of the sitting Orion. Orion quickly grasped the situation as he stood in a fighting stance as well, "Where are the others?"
"Vin-san and Issei-san are fighting their opponents right now, one on one."
Orion nodded at the simple yet informational statement, charging at one of the men, "You're mine!!!" Two claws of a beast made out of fire formed as he slashed the man, injuring his arms as he blocked the boy's second attempt.
"Heh, you're pretty fast for someone who just woke up~" he hardened his arms into steels as he punched the boy in the stomach, sending him flying far away. "Urgh!!"
"Orion-san!" the girl lost her focus as the man in front of her used this as an opportunity to attack.
"Lesson number 01, never take your eyes from your opponents!!!" he summoned a water sword as the girl did as well.
She blocked his attack on time but was tripped by the man's feet as he swung his leg below her. She didn't have any time to react as she tried to balance herself with her hands.
'U-Ugh!!' the hand she used to balance herself was sprained in the process and she winced at the pain.
"All right over there? Need some help?!" the man swung his sword again as the girl struggled to counter it with her sprained hand.
"Urkh...!" she was then below him, so she figured she'll kick him in where the sun shines the brightest. She did just that, so she took the chance to ran away and hastily changed into another stance.
Her hands lit up as she shot light beams at the man, with him still holding his... "thing." The man flew far away as she healed her hand, "Dream Weaver Magic: Reverse."
Her hand returned to its normal condition as she remembered something, 'I thought our magics don't work in these Spaces... Huh... Is it a coincidence? No, no, no. It doesn't work before, why would it work now? Is it because of the Telarocks?'
Her thoughts were cut short by a wave of purple directed towards her, "DIE!!!"
"Woah...!" she barely escaped it by flying with her light-made wings. The wave was on her tail as it chased her throughout the whole white Space.
"HOW DARE YOU ATTACK ME LIKE THAT?! DIE! DIE!! DIE!!!"
'You're the one who attacked me first, you moron!!!' Shizuka countered back mentally as she was flying faster and faster.
.

"Dream Weaver Magic: Angel's Soul!!!"
Her first pair of wings became much bigger as four other pair grew as well, making it ten wings in total. Light swords circled over her like a crown as they were now directed towards the man. She aimed her hand towards the hand while still escaping the purple wave.
A halo then appeared on her head as her swords charged towards the man as she ordered her glowing gold halo towards the wave.
"Dream Weaver Magic: Angel's Halo - Bind!!!"
The halo did as it was told as it binds the purple wave, absorbing and reducing it to none. The man was furious at this "little" fact as he summoned a larger wave to chase after the girl as he deals with the swords.
She flew away again as she passed the others, though she tried not to as the wave will get to them too.
"Dream Weaver Magic: Angel's Wings - First Wing!!!" As she spoke, one of the bottom wings charged at the wave, slashing in the middle of it into two. But that was not enough to stop the giant wave.
"Second Wing!!!" The pair of the first wing charged at the wave, slashing it multiple times into cubes. The wave didn't return to normal. However, it chased the girl in its cubed forms as the girl sweat-dropped.
'What is this thing...?! Does it have a mind of its own? It'll be great to let Kao-nii experiment on it~'
The girl looked back at the wave with a devilish grin on her face, but she soon wiped it away as she shook her head left and right vigorously, 'No, no, no. Focus! You'll lose at this rate!'
She slapped her fair cheeks, making them pink as she looked back at the wave, 'Okay, sooooo... What should I do with you...'
Shizuka spun around as the cubes did as well. They shot at her but barely missed her wings as she flew in random places, at least to other people.
She flew around making an eight-pointed star with a circle around it without people realizing. Though the cubes were just inches from her feet, she was dying in the inside as she tried to finish the pattern.
'Pleaseletmemakeit! Pleaseletmemakeit!! Pleaseletmemakeit!!!'
It sounded more like a spell than a plead really, she closed her eyes as she finished the pattern. The pattern shone on time when the cubed tried to get her from below. They were stuck there as the girl ordered her third and fourth wings.
"Third Wing! Fourth Wing! Eliminate!!"
The two wings went into the star pattern as a large beam of light disintegrated the purple cubes. She quietly danced in victory as she returned to her opponent, checking on what he's doing.
Orion was dealing with two men at a time as sparks of fire were everywhere. She quickly dealt with the most injured one, "Fifth Wing!!"
The fifth wing turned into a rope, tying the man from top to bottom tighter each second until he burst. Blood splattered everywhere and the girl quietly said her prayers, "May you repent your sins and be at peace in your next life. I pray that the Rulers above will have mercy for your soul."
Turning around to Orion and her former opponent, Orion thanked her whilst he glared back at the man intensely.
"Let's do this, Orion-san."
"Yeah!!! Now, it's time for you to get a taste of this!!"
