(Okay, this thread is simply based on escaping the school without getting killed by the hired assassins. I recommend not trying and stopping them. This is a light mage thing only and only tying lose ends. All light mages are expected to team up though. Simply, light mages are going to team up here—this is separate from the other battles and based afterwards.)

Many of the survivors from the previous onslaught had gathered in the middle section of the school. Slightly in the mountains laid three disastrous enemies, maybe allies of Umi and the other attacks, maybe not. One was an overweight man with a wrecking ball; he swung his wrecking ball around as it was connected to a rusty chain. As he done so, he swung it into the mountain side, crashing the mountain as it literally caused a massive crater that could be seen from the schools. “Is she here?” The man brutally grunts, not amused at retrieving the girl for such a ridiculous price.

“I thiiiink sheeeeeeee’s hereeeee…” A girl slothfully moans resting on the fat mans shoulder, simply waiting for them to take off. She looked at a few students running up to the mountains and at a click of her finger; they were strangled by growing vines. “Leeeeet’s just killlll everyone……” She mumbles a teleport spell as the group of 3 was teleported to the entrance of the magic school. The three quickly created havoc killing any students injured, crippled or running for their lives.

“Someone beat us,” The last man sighs, his blonde hair blowing beautifully in the wind. An obvious bishounen. Her grabbed out his sword and began rushing through people chopping and severing them. The final stage of the destruction of the school had arrived, they began destroying every building… and heading to the other survivors from the attack.

“We have to get out of here, let’s round up as much people as we can and escape,” He mutters to Rose, helping her up. Seems the curse hadn’t affected her at all, though from what he heard, she can’t track any of Umi’s allies anymore. As all the dark mages left, William wondered why buildings were still crashing down; maybe there were others that weren’t part of Umi’s group attacking the school? Either way, it’s too dangerous now. They had to leave. “Rie and Ashraeh aren’t here, so let’s get Aliidan and get out of here.” He nods, leading the way.

"You think there's others...?" Rose asks wobbly as she points to the continuing mass destruction. Logically, if Umi retreated, his allies would, too. But, that may not be the case. Students howls and screams could still be heard, she worried for them, but the way Umi and his group thrashed pretty much all the main fighters of the school, it was doubtful they could do anything to protect them.

"I have an idea, how about we go to the principals office? There's no one here, the fact is, all the teachers had left and at this precise moment, they attacked with almost no resistance. This would mean, the teachers may be part of this or had known they'd attack, logically, there's no resistance against us, either. So, we could take the barrier to get out of here. As could the others." Rose explains, grabbing William's arm and tugging him along. "We have to get the other students to follow us, too!!" She shouts.

Daisuke was just standing at a corner staring at them busy in their own conversation and he asked "So what are we going to do now?"

Ryno sat nonchalantly behind a tree, minding his own business, recuperating his magic from his previous fight. "They will be here in about five minutes if we don't leave. If you're going to find everyone else, we shouldn't split up. We'll be picked off one by one, history repeats itself and being picked off one by one is a common tactic." Ryno explains, closing his book as he walks over to the fairly handsome blonde-haired man, the quite attractive purple-haired girl and the child with fiery red hair.

"We shall expand our group, I do like the idea the girl had come up with. My name's Ryno Villers, a historian. Glad to meet your acquaintance."

Larita was stubbornly walking down the main area of Everlast. She was rubbing the tears off her eyes, looking up in confusion as she sees a large brute man with a wrecking ball. "Target found." He scoffs some food down his throat, as he spins the wrecking ball haphazardly aiming for Larita's head.

"Eeek!" She screeches, scurrying backwards only barely avoiding contact with it. "H-help..." She sobs quietly.

Jess ran in, large bite and claw cuts all over her. She was bleeding badly, and had barely escaped Kitty. She ran in, soon spotting William... It was clear she would bleed to death if not treated as she ran over and hugged him. "William, thank goodness... Medic..." She said, breathing heavily... Just then all the strength in her legs faded away, and she found herself falling onto the floor... "M-medic..." Jess muttered before her eyes closed. She was still aware of what was going on, just too tired to do anything but listen to what was going on.

“Ah... Jessica, s-%*@!... She needs help, Rose... Track Leila, Marie, any of the healers.” William commands, picking up Jessica as they continue to move onward. They had to recruit survivors and get the hell out of here, what if Umi planted a bomb or something similar? It’s too dangerous, especially with Jessica in this state. She was strong and by the looks of it, it was possibly Kitty.

“Let’s go, we’ll search for survivors!” He shouts, as he expects Ryno, Rose or Daisuke to know the simple ‘Cura’ spell, as Will literally failed healing class.

Daisuke was surprised when somehow a person injured all over came running in requiring a medic which then faints on top of William .He just stared at those 2 and just wonder "What is with this person . . ." but then Daisuke was tired so he just yawned .

He made a sigh and came towards Jessica with his hand placing above her "Dop Pe Ru ,Cura" data of Jess's particles covered back her injury slowly as data continues to swirl around her body .Daisuke just walked off back to a corner "It will disappear once the process is done" he said on his way to the corner .

Meanwhile, from seeing all the killing Kagami had remembered her friends from high school getting killed, and she was starting to have second thoughts about her sensei... And so she wandered into the principals office, seeking refuge from an enraged sensei and Kitty... She clearly wouldn't be able to fight much more like Jess, matter of fact she saw the giantess and gave an understanding nod... "Mortimer-baka won't find me here..." She got in a good place to givce an announcement. "If you bunch will let me join you, I might be able to help..." Until recently she'd absolutely adored Mortimer, but now she knew he was doing the wrong thing...

Leila herself was busy keeping Nina in a stable position. It would seem the her Yoko gave her was working wonders and Raven was back to normal, however Nina hadn't regained consciousnesses, which was weird considering her wound had been completely closed off and healed. "Where is everyone?" Leila asks, as vines slowly creep towards Raven, her and Nina.

"Come on, we have to get through this... Bloods everywhere, who else is supposed to jump in it...?" She mutters.

Jessica soon woke up, blinking once or twice... She looked around slowly, then at herself... "What the... What is this stuff?" She said, looking at... whatever that dust stuff was. She didn't yet notice it was healing her as she looked at William for answers. In the back of her mind she remembered that Archer she'd tried to save and wondered if he had survived.

Ken had awoken up alone, his wounds tended to. "Damn... it hurts..." Ken aches as he tries to get up, pushing himself to his feet. He saw a wrecking ball fly up, crashing downwards as a huge explosion happens. He looks at it, stunned as he rushes over to see the impending destruction.

To much demise, he could see a girl getting attacked, barely avoiding the mans attacks. "Watch out!!" He shouts, grabbing Larita as he spreads his wings and began flying up in the air, attempting to save her. "Are you alright?" He tries to look impressive and cool, obviously trying too hard to do so.

Larita was grabbed and rescued slightly by an angel-like man. "E-eeeh...??" She mutters, "I-I'm... fine..." She lies, with a fake smile, tilting her head across to look at the ongoing destruction. She looked at the enemy, she knew who it was. They needed help to fight someone like this man.

She looked at the archer, he seemed capable to run away... but not fight. "Please run, the only people who can defeat him may have left the school." She wipes her eyes, referring to Umi, Sai, Bex and some other of her 'friends'. She continued to sob slightly, hoping to escape, not that she cares if she didn't or did at this moment of time.

"This is bad..." Rose trembles, looking at her artifact, Delinera Blasphemia. All the people she knew in class were dead or not here on the day of this horrendous casualty. She holds the fear in, "Swap: Larita Rimuru." She continues to go through the people she met in the school. A positive result. Larita was three hundred meters from the area they were in. However, the crystal ball updated her status saying she was 'in danger'. "G-guys! Get over there and save her, I'll continue making a list! Swap: Leila Crelines." She updates as five hundred meters to the south was Leila, also dubbed 'in danger'. Ordering a few people to go to Larita and some to Leila, she rushes herself to Leila's location. Splitting up may not be a good idea, however Rose recommended the groups only to split into two, so they can meet up easily later on. It's time to take the plan into action!!

Eva had escaped before, with an old wound having been opened on her arm, painful but she could deal with it. She had managed to find her way towards the school. She saw someone with wings, carrying a girl away from what looked like quite a scary man... She was well out of sight from all of them... but it looked like the needed help. Moving closer she readied her bow and then fired it at the mans head, hoping to at least distract him.

Raven was patched up nicely thanks to Leila's healing abilities. "Good work, thanks..." He blushes slightly, noticing blood around her mouth. He obviously knew what she was doing. He could see rumbling and rustling in the bushes, but he didn't take the chance to check 'em out. He knew something was there, so it wouldn't be a sneak attack.

"Let's go, Leila." He turns, carrying Nina.

Nina quickly came to on what was happening. Her consciousness was regained and her wound was healed. "Where am I-I? L-Leila and Raven... Did Yoko escape?" She asks drowsily, her eyesight still blurry. It would seem the herb Leila used was very effective in concession with her healing. Nina would be fit as a fiddle in a few minutes.

As her body recuperated, she hops off Raven. "Let's go find any other people..." She mutters, pointing at a dead body of one of the students... a truly tragic event.

The oversized and rather obese man swung his chained wrecking ball through the buildings obliterating them. He could care less about the archer and the girl dying; however the girl was his target. He couldn’t kill her. Swinging his wrecking ball upward, he aimed to slam the wrecking ball into the archer’s head, going to crush his skull; however the move ended in failure as an arrow was sent flying at him. Swinging his wrecking ball plummeting downwards, it slams right onto the arrow.

It would seem he noticed the arrow as it entered about twenty meters from his current location. Looking around, he was unable to find the girl who attacked him. Grabbing the arrow, he throws it in his mouth and eats it easily, the metal head and all. In no time, his mouth began enlarging and his tongue pointed at an area of trees. It’s where the archer girl was. His attention was now distracted as he swings his wrecking ball aiming to wipe out the entire forestry that would be cover for the girl and aimed on attacking her, too.

Meanwhile, Nina, Raven and Leila carried onwards. The vines that were rustling the bushes began following underground and in no time, it caught up with the trio. A slothful girl emerged from the bushes lazily, staring at them as reputed. She began mumbling in Latin as a giant monster flower emerged from the ground followed by another. One carried her off to a different area, while the other began attacking the trio.

_____________________________________________________

William himself was wandering over to the central area, as Rose commanded. “Larita better be safe...” He sighs, wandering why people were still attacking the school. The devastation was catastrophic, there was little to no buildings left undamaged. A plethora of things were going through Will’s mind, but he had to get as much people as possible to safety, no matter who they were.

As he ran towards the central area, he saw a man of gargantuan size attacking seemingly nothing. Just simple forests and such. Looking around, he peered around the area closely, attempting to find any students, including Larita.

[By archer you do mean Eva right . . .?]

Daisuke made his quick escape out and chase after Eva as soon as he noticed the wrecking ball headed towards her "Dop Pe Ru , 10 spritus fulmine coentes sagittet inimicum" casting 10 lightning-type Sagitta Magica that strikes the wrecking ball that managed to stop it's path .

As the man began randomly attacking the scenery, as well as the interruption of a new arrival (who Ken didn't see), he takes the opportunity to scout for others. Seeing the large, dark-skinned girl from before, with another group he lands safely. "Please, let us join you." He simply states with a bow. This wasn't the time to be acting arrogant or rude or perverted or such, this was a dangerous situation. Letting Larita down, they had to survive by working together.

(OOC: Yeah, I was talking about Eva. Also this guy is massively strong; I recommend not fighting him, as well as the other two.)

William watched stunned as the kid, Daisuke just dashed off to Larita’s location. However, the kid got a head start and arrived before Ken had safely carried Larita back to the group, adding more members to the survival list. As Daisuke’s electrical arrows hit the wrecking ball, it seemed ineffective and null as it continued its onslaught of destruction. “Ken, welcome aboard. Think you could scout for Rose’s group a bit to the north? She’s looking for Leila,” William was glad that he saw other survivors.

The wrecking ball continued to destroy the forestry, if Eva was hit by this, it’d completely destroy her. The guy’s strength wasn’t anything to scoff at, he was strong. Daisuke and Eva would have to run, the chain of the wrecking ball only equalled eighty meters and the further you are from the man would make it easier to avoid his attacks and harder for him to maintain his accurate and speedy attacks.

[Other two and is Eva >Larita ?]

Daisuke faced towards Eva "We better make a run for it before he has another chance to attack" He quickly make his run to keep his distances from the monsterous person .Hoping the person doesn't brings back his wreckage ball and starts trowing it at them again .

Eva looked suprised her arrow had failed to hit.. and quickly retreated while findout out she wasn't alone. Nodding to Daisuke, she would make her way through the forest, avoiding attacks from the wrecking ball.

(Eva is stronger than Larita, if that's what you meant)

Eva and William quickly collided as they ran, looking at Daisuke fighting the fat man. "Daisuke, come back! We can't afford to lose any other people at this rate, Ken and Larita are safe!" He alarms the kid, hoping not to have him continue fighting. "Flamma ex divum, surculus procul meus hostilis! Fell Flames!" William chants as a cloud forms in a matter of seconds above the rather obese man, hailing flame needles at him.

Seems the man's reaction time was quick as he jumped back and easily avoided such an attack, however it did give time for Daisuke to run, if needed. However, William's needless shouting obviously alerted the man where their current position is. "Eva, you make it back to the rest of the group. We're hightailing out of here."

Daisuke quickly made a run for it as well when he heard William's call "Kay!" He quickly retreats back to the group for safety "Alright I am here "
