The retaliatory attacks by the red-muscled caster were not of insignificant strength, leaving the maid with a bloody nose and burning chest. As she charged forward, the space lord twirled his Z-emblazoned staff and thrust it forward with its sharper end. Crossing her crescent blades, the maid was able to subtly redirect the attack as to enable her to skid along her adversary's side. But as the slide made it difficult for her to redirect her momentum quickly, she was unable to strike his exposed back before he struck with his rod in a sweeping side motion, hitting her legs and sending her plummeting on her back.
Laughing at his foe's misfortune, the caster spoke boisterously: 'Know your place, we-AUGH!' His gloating was cut short as the blonde fairy performed a dive-bombing manoeuvre, covering him in flames. In a fit of panic, the servant scrambled onto her feet and made a dash for one of the side openings leading to the interior, her flying adversary in literal hot pursuit.
Finding refuge in the darkened hallways within, Tamsin hoped to shelter herself from the fly-by attacks. Unfortunately for her, she was not the sole person to have such a thought. Just as she rushed to reach stairs at the end of a narrow hallways, she was followed by the lumbering man of metal, the neon lights on his visor shining menacingly. Their gazes briefly met, though it was only the maid's paranoid eyes that were readily apparent. She attempted to move before noticing the three vertical dots on the wall next to her, managing to stop herself just as her foe fired the plasma projectiles. Tearing through her uniform, the energy discharges scraped her skin and sent her reeling into a corner. The narrow hallway provided even the slow engineer with an easy shot and he switched to a horizontal pattern as he took another aim. Nearly paralysed by fear, Tamsin noticed a small stone statue standing to the side. In a desperate bid, she stretched out her arm, calling upon her telekinetic powers in an attempt to block the shot.
Though she managed to tilt it just enough to get in the way of the shot, the discharge cut through the ornament effortlessly and two of the projectiles found their mark, piercing her side. A small spray of blood stained the walls as the girl cried out in pain.
This unnerved the armoured man and caused him to hesitate , but before he could decide on a course of action, a discharge of electricity struck his back. After making his presence known, the space lord laughed menacingly: 'Fools! You have made yourselves easy targets!' He unleashed another lightning bolt, this time at the maid. She barely managed to throw herself on the ground, causing the discharge to fly overhead and explode the wall behind her.
The red-muscled humanoid was ready to resume his onslaught when he was reminded of his own precarious position. 'Yoooo-hoooo!' came the soft voice from behind when a stream of flames burst inside, consuming the entire hallway. Though the engineer and alien faced the brunt of the fire, the tail end reached Tamsin as well. Her skin searing and outfit smouldering, Suzaku desperately rushed up the stairs and then rolled to put out the flames.
Making her way upstairs, the servant emerged on the stands. However, the playful fairy foresaw this movement and awaited her there. 'There you are!' she remarked with a smirk and, with a swing of her torch, blinded the blue-eyed girl with the burst of purple light she had prepared. Shielding herself from the sudden illumination, the maid looked up at the fairy. Perhaps it was due to the pain, but the mere sight of the motley fool started to chafe her — she wanted Clownpiece to go away. But all she got in response to her annoyed look was a cheeky, expectant grin.
Holding her pained side, the maid reached for the daggers strapped to her thighs and threw one of them at her aerial foe at a higher angle, causing the fairy to instinctively duck. However, as she attempted to correct her error, a second dagger managed to strike the fairy's side. Reeling from the sudden pain, the flying creature attempted a retreat, but the irate woman sprinted forward, using the fence as a jumping board to reach out to her adversary and grab her by the ankle.
Belying her small frame, the sudden weight did not cause Clownpiece to instantly plummet to the sandy ground. But she still found it troublesome, and attempted to dislodge Tamsin's grasp. Realising her error in judgment, the servant held on for dear life as she acrobatically attempted to avoid the flames aimed at her.
