Amber reeled back as a swash of light and sand washed her vision. She wondered how someone was capable of turning a card into a weapon the way this girl did. The faunus’ instinct kicked in instantly. A pink aura surrounded her body, shielding her from the dangers that little card produced. Amber grinned at the success of her newly made defense mode. It had worked on the up-tight skeleton, and now had worked against another form of magic.
Eternity was stunned momentarily as the sand cleared from the colorful bullets sending it flying into clouds. Her glowing foe had been left completely unfaltered by her technique. She gulped subconsciously.
“Tch, that all you got?” Amber sneered. “Well, I guess we’re in the losers bracket, there’s bound to be some weaklings.”
“Hey!” The butterfly barked back. “Don’t underestimate me or you’ll regret it.”
“Okay then! If that’s the case…” The faunus paused as the pink-ish aura formed around her body in a flutter of fire. “Allow me to show you true power!”
The fairy could feel it: This girl was strong. She could wield her giant sword with ease and was capable of becoming much stronger with such a power-up. If she wasn’t careful, she would easily get overtaken.
Amber bursted forward with blinding speed. For a moment, Eternity lost sight of her. It didn’t help that Amber was smart enough to fling up sand by swinging her sword through it to make a smokescreen. It also seemed to stop her bullets from hitting the faunus. Although Eternity was focused solely on her opponent, she couldn’t figure out how to counter this. Amber’s movements were hard to track, so her best bet would’ve been to take a better vantage point in the sky. The beautiful summer wings spread outwards, blowing sand towards the faunus. She covered her face with Razorback to ensure she wouldn’t be blinded by the sting of sand in her eyes.
“That won’t save you, bug!” Amber said as she crouched in the sand ready to jump as high as she possibly could. The sand exploded around her when she took off. The colorful bullets soared past her like a drizzle of rainbow. Her sword deflected any shot that would attempt to harm her vitals. She closed in and raised her sword above her head, Eternity heard her voice.
“Now get squashed!” The faunus screamed. Her grip on her sword tightened and with a heavy heave, she brought the steel to her opponent.
A spear pierced Amber’s side.
She looked down towards the trajectory of the javelin to see a smirking Ahana.
“Why don’t you pick on someone your own size?” She asked Amber, just barely dodging a heavy swing from the relentless Whompt. The faunus jerked the weapon from her side, returning it to sender.
“You just dug yourself a sandy grave, stupid.” The faunus’ attention shifted to Ahana, completely ignoring the bullets that Eternity had shot to take advantage of her openings. Amber felt her aura soaking up most of it, but still the pain was there. She would just push through it as she always did. Ahana was fast enough to dodge the axe wielding orc, but not fast enough to dodge him and the raging catgirl at once. In fact, Amber was too hard to dodge altogether. Her form was rough but rehearsed. Ahana wondered just how much strength was behind that weapon. No matter what, her magic would protect her from a-. Her train of thought was completely interrupted by a loud thonk.
“Oh shit.” Amber said to her teammate. “I-”
The orc’s fist connected with the back of the faunus’s head. She, obviously, cried out in pain.
“Hey! What are you-” The orc disregarded her pained words and talked over her.
“Amber hit hard! But, Whompt hit harder!” He yelled out, axe at his shoulder. “Whompt say hello like Amber!”
The faunus rubbed the back of her head, completely speechless. Their opponents were just as confused as she was. Whompt only smiled at her.
“Uh, whatever.” She mentioned before turning to Ahana again, then to Eternity, then to Whompt. “So, hey, Whompt?”
“Yes, friend Amber?” Whompt said much more loudly than needed. Amber’s ears folded back as he spoke.
“You think you can handle the butterfly thing?” She asked. Whompt pondered momentarily before responding. Amber could see his eyes scanning the battlefield. The colored bullets began to rain towards them, along with multiple spears.
“Whompt can do this.” His voice boomed over Amber’s. The orc put his axe in it’s holster and charged towards Ahana once again. Amber called out to him. “No wait! Not that one!”
Whompt didn’t respond, he feared giving away his plan to the enemies would be too dumb. Ahana attempted to dodge his charge but ended up getting grabbed by the colossus of an orc. With no time wasted, he heaved the girl directly at the fairy. The two collided roughly.
“Whompt do good?” He asked his teammate who’s hand was against her forehead.
What a fucking day.
