Action in Dollet~ Open to Any!

[sonoffigaro]

[Getting to the Moogle Village had been no problem. Getting back to Figaro, however.]

Sabin, I know- [Autocrossbow to the head of a Humbaba] -you wanted to protect me- [spear slash to a tendon] but I think this is [jump back to avoid a claw swipe] a bit much, don't you?

[The party retrieving Sabin had meant to swing through Alexandria to pick up

What can I say - [Suplex to a Chimera} Gaia decided to bring me back - [Pummels a Joker for good measure.] - just in time - [Evade, EVADE, EVADE!!!] for it to rain monsters!

[heavenslament]

[Terra, busy incinerating a Flan, only listens to the banter instead of joining it. However, her attention is drawn to a pair of crystalline figures; one resembling herself, the other Kefka.]

Manikins?! They really did bring everything....

[sonoffigaro]

I swear, brother, if you brought them with you-

[But his attention is caught by Terra's exclamation, and he whirls to see what's facing them - only to be taken completely by surprise.]

Those things- What are they?!

[Let's see how fast he can reload his autocrossbow...]

[hi_no_dansu]

[Sabin takes out the Joker with ease before giving his knuckles a customary crack before gawking at the two crystalline creatures ahead of the trio.]

These... I definitely haven't seen before.

[heavenslament]

They're copies of people who were summoned to the Void--

[But Terra doesn't get a chance to say anything more, as the Terra manikin approaches Edgar, while 'Kefka' confronts Sabin. The phantasmal harlequin cackled just as Kefka did, though his voice is choppy and distorted--a faint copy of the original. Terra's copy sends bolts of Holy soaring at Edgar, which prompts Terra herself to leap and cast Holy herself, to deflect as many of those as she can.]

[sonoffigaro]

[Holy he's familiar with, but not in that form. Edgar's eyes widen at that, instinctively leaping, dropping the crossbow as he speeds into the air to evade the homing missiles. They curve after him but miss by a few feet, and Edgar turns his jump into a controlled downward plunge at the Kefka shape, hoping to hit it and snap it like a twig or get the two mixed up with each other.]

;-; poke me when it's tag guys! T^T

[hi_no_dansu]

[Sabin's face goes stony. The form standing before him is one that he hates more than anything and the fact that he's now driving his clawed fist with all the ferocity and strength in his being should make that perfectly clear to both of his friends.]

Well then, we'll just have to take Kefka down again.

[heavenslament]

[ooc: Actually, Edgar has seen Holy like that. Terra uses it all the time. XD Also, feel free to use the manikins as well!]

[As Edgar attacks Kefka's copy, Terra finds her facing...herself. She leaps in time to avoid the lightning bolts converging on her, and conjures a ball of darkness to slam the manikin into the ground.]

[sonoffigaro]

[The spear lands bare moments after Sabin's vicious punch, Edgar leaping back once again to clear the way for the monk to attack again.]

Then these are the things manufactured in that hellhole you spoke of - don't worry, Terra, we're with you now!

[And with that, Edgar draws himself up straighter, then threw his energy into casting a giant, glowing, pinkish-red sphere that expanded over the battlefield - Luna, the dragoon skill that makes enemies berserk and attack physically. He wants to pull the teeth out of the magic users.]

[hi_no_dansu]

[The joys of working as a cohesive unit are displayed through and through as Sabin goes in for another round of blitz technique. He furiously attacks the Kefka Manikin before getting hit with a rather charming series of physical attacks that were missing more than hitting. Annoying things really, but Sabin counter attacks with a series of blows from his claws.]

[heavenslament]

[The Terra manikin is now currently the biggest threat, since it can still use its sword. The crystalline figure lunges for her counterpart, who leaps back again...though not quite quickly enough to avoid being grazed at the arm. She ignores that for now, though, instead taking advantage of the short distance to send a volley of Holy missiles at the manikin, point-blank.]

[sonoffigaro]

[Two steps take Edgar over to his dropped autocrossbow, which he snatches up to finish reloading. Practice gives him an edge, and in five seconds he's whipping it up to shoot the Terra manikin from only about ten feet away. The thing, caught between the Holy volley and the multiple arrows, gives a distorted, pained scream that makes Edgar wince at how similar it sounds to Terra, contorts around itself, and dies.]

[hi_no_dansu]

[Sabin gives the duo a low whistle of approval before continuing his assault on the Kefka manikin. He may not have any magic on his side but the ferocity with which he attacks with his body should be more than enough to compensate for that minor issue. When magic left their home world, so did his interest in it.]

[heavenslament]

[Terra does her best to aid Sabin, conjuring a ball of darkness to slam down into the Kefka copy.]

[sonoffigaro]

[Magic or no, Edgar literally throws his spear at the manikin. It's inelegant, ungraceful - but it hits, and that's what counts in his mind.]

Be careful! You never know what Kefka will do!
