Leaning against the railing the pain in her head multiplied ten-fold. Lilac's vision blurred to the point that she couldn't even see anything in front of her. She was surprised that she hadn't passed out from the pain. The only sounds she could make out was the throbbing in her head, and the muffled sounds of pain. Who were they coming from? Were they her screams? She was in too much pain to tell, too much pain to hear her own thoughts.
Making an attempt to move. Lilac only made it a few steps forward as a wave of nausea tore through her forcing her down on her knees.
Carter on the other hand slid across the floor as Rampage growled deep in her throat. Cracking her knuckles preparing for her next wave of assault on the young man before her.
Spitting blood from his mouth, Carter would manifest a card into his hand. Flicking it in Lilacs direction before appearing where the card is. His aura heavily flickering, both from the beating he's received and the overuse of his semblance. Feeling his injuries slowly healing as his aura worked hard to keep him moving. To keep him standing.
And there was barely any juice left flowing through him. But for this instance it was enough to keep him going. Turning to Lilac who seemed to be in even more pain and suffering than before. He would notice her aura slowly starting to weaken as if whatever was effecting her was slowly eating away at her lifeforce.
Carter would then take notice of the silver needle that was protruding out of of her back. Glowing brightly. Looking back behind him. He could see the angry woman charging at them. Not knowing anything better to do, he'd grab the needle and pull it out of her body. Earning a strangled cry of pain as she fell over. Her aura seeming to stabilize as soon as the needle was removed.
As soon as the needle was removed. The pain instantly dulled. Only leaving the pounding headache throbbing in her skull. Lilac could feel her senses returning. Her vision cleared as she noticed the blood on the ground where her face was. Licking her lips she could tatse. Blood? Feeling her nose she could feel it wet with blood. She must have had a nosebleed due to the sudden migrane. And now that the pain was over, it was kind of exciting. In a weird way.
Grabbing his stave. He would press a button which elongated it before spinning and rising before catching the woman across the face with it forcing her to stumble off to the side. Which caused her aura to shine brightly.
"You call that a hit pretty boy? I barely felt anything from it." She would say before spitting some blood out of her mouth and onto the ground. Before pulling her rod back out and electrifying it.
Spinning the staff around Carter would smirk. "You just got lucky catching me off guard. I'm going to be the greatest huntsman in history." He'd pause spinning the staff in his hand before pointing it her way. "And you're my first road block that I gotta take out."
After the words left his mouth. Rampage burst out laughing so hard she keeled over. "Oh that's just so fucking precious! You think you stand a chance against me? Listen you little bitch. I am the last road block you'll ever see" She'd say through her laugh noticing Lilac slowly beginning to stand. "you're lucky your friend got that off of you. If he hadn't your aura would've been ripped out your body."
Taking several deep breaths as everything became clearer than they just had been. Lilac finally was able to stand on her own two feet. Taking several deep breaths getting herself moving again. "That...was hot...but now I'm pissed" Lilac would breath gripping her bow hard in her hand looking towards the Woman.
Blinking being taken aback by the girls comment. Rampage just couldn't compute the words that were leaving her mouth. Was this a result of the needle? Or was this girl just that freaky weird?
"You good Lilac?" Carter would ask glancing back behind him momentarily to gauge how she was holding up.
"I'm fin- Watch out!" She'd yell as the woman lunged forward at Carter the moment he moved his eyes from her.
Turning in time for The woman to strike him across the face. The blow sent him spinning around. Buying enough time for Lilac to loose an arrow at the woman. Catching her in the chest with it before the dust inside of the arrow combusted sending the woman flying with a furious cry.
"You bitch!" The woman would yell quickly rising only to be met with another arrow, that followed the actions of the first one. With an explosion. Sending her into the wall.
"Carter let's go!" she would yell having bought them at least a little bit of time to get some distance away from the psychotic woman. Helping the dazed teen to his feet. They would quickly begin to run towards the door on the opposite side of the room. Pushing through it. Onto a balcony that was roughly fifty feet in the air.
"Woah. That's a pretty far drop." Lilac would say looking down contemplating what they should do.
"Can you get us to float again?" Carter would ask locking the door shut with his other stave.
"I don't think I have enough energy to pull that off without one of us getting hurt." Lilac would say looking to Carter. "unless you want to be a cushion"
"Are you trying to get me hurt worse?" Carter would ask in disbelief as he looked back to her.
"Use you as the cushion as we fall. And then use my semblance on you to allow us to land safely." Lilac would say pulling a cigarette out of her pocket and lighting it taking a long drag before expelling a calmed breath. "You ready to fall?"
