(*nod nod* and it will make you look more skilled XD))

Seeing that the spear had missed it's target and something had made Lance angry, he was going at Lucien again, this time dragging Cu with him... Lance was going to get himself killed if he didn't get his anger in check and Leo and Cu too.

Noelle knew she had to do something and fast, even if it meant getting Lucien's attention away from Lance. Wrapping her hands around the handle of the sword and taking a deep breath, there was only way to snap Lance out of this.. Keeping the sword in an easy attack position, Noelle lunges at Lucien, swinging the blade at him when she got close enough.

{occ: I don't plan to stay on late tonight anyway. XD}

ooc: Lol I'm trying to catch up.... Trying to find a picture for painting class though.

Charlie jumped slightly as she saw Noelle moving in. "Hey!" Hissing as she pulled out the two knives and balanced them in her hands. "I thought you were his target in the first place." Grumbling as she attempted to chase after her and make sure she didn't get herself killed.

Lucien Parried the attacks to the best of his abilities using the broken remains of his sword. He realized that he was surrounded and out numbered. Although he hated to ask for help it looked like he had no better option. Lucien used his off hand to pull from his pocket a radio transmitter pressing the button he began to talk into it.

"This is Lucien The Assassin, I need back up in coordinates 274, 654 There is an underground fighting tunnel in the alley i again i need back up Coordinates 2...7...4...6...5...4.." Lucien dropped his sword and pulled his dagger out attempting to bring it across Noelle's face.

Lance Struggled for a moment more the Strength of Cu was incredible what was he? two more tails sprouted from the mans back his bodies muscle capacity nearly doubling.. "must kill..." This wasn't good if he went on a rampage again he wouldn't be able to stop the Government from finding out.

Afraid of possible ricochet from a bullet, Cu fished out a knife with two fingers and threw it has hard as he could, trying to knock Lucien's blade from his grasp. Then he stomped down hard on the chain to bring Lance to his knees; it was too risky to let the other mercenary take care of his rival.

Zero thought it strange, or perhaps a happy consequence, that the person who needed back up needed where he had been watching. Knowing the area well he was able to mass a group of troops for reinforcement quickly. After being the first one to receive the message, and found Lucien had once again caused a complete and utter mess. The good news was that his troops had the tunnel and its exits surrounded, the bad was the was unprepared to face the beast that he had been assured was dead. Stepping out of the shadows, Zero let the strange girls blade slice into his forearm. He felt the blade go through his padding and slice into his skin. Quickly he pulled one of his needles from its hiding place and flicked it at the girl, hoping to prick her and subdue her with a sleeping tonic.

“Lucien, we have T-minus 5 minutes before more troops arrive, and in T minus 60 the back exit to this tunnel will be blocked off by cops.” He pushed off the blade drawing his gun. “So help me if the dragon assassin dies from a group of...” He inspected the people that Lucien was attacking. .”Teenagers I will make sure you do not live it down in hell.” Quickly taking his eyes off the group of people he found the darken specks. With a swift forceful kick he let the shades fly back to their master. “Stop being lazy.” From there his attention turned to the rest of the bodies in the room.

((Its loaded with tranq bullets. ))

OOC: Sorry, was trying to focus a bit more on trophy hunting >_<

Leo watching Lance fight Lucien thought he should stay out of their way, but seeing Lucien's reinforcements, he decided to take them on instead. He got into a offensive stance, lightning still pulsing through the sword. Knowing a direct confrontation would be suicide, Leo used another forbidden technique, which would have to be his last if he didn't want to die.

"Right.." he said to himself as he begun weaving hand seals. " Tiger, Ox, Monkey, Rabbit, Sheep, Boar, Ox, Horse, Monkey, Tiger, Dog, Tiger, Serpent, Tiger, Ox, Monkey, Rabbit, Bird! Water Style... Water Vortex!" A giant water wave erupted from Leo's hand and moved quickly towards the reinforcements and their leader. "And for the finishing touch..." he said as he pulled out another lightning paper tag and threw it into the water, now electricity flowing through it.

Lucien Chuckled at the mans remarks smiling insanely and licking his blade as the sparks rolled down his tongue "Me? Die, you must have me mistaken for another man" Lucien Charged Chu throwing one dagger at him and slashing at him with the other dagger firmly gripped in his hand sparking off with intense lighting "Let the beast off his chain, Pets need some time to roam around or they get fussy"

The Kitsune Beast fell to his knees roaring and growling struggling to get up his entire form had changed into the Kitsune stage. It was back anything that was left of lance's personality was gone. the beast turned as best as he could toward Leo and began slowly crawling on all fours towards him with blood lust in his eye.

Leo exhausted and drained from pulling off two forbidden techniques twice in a row could barely stand. Seeing Lance in his Kitsune form, he grimaced, not in good shape to fight him. "Lance...? I know you're in there somewhere.. It's me Leo... remember?" he said hand over his chest. Backing away from Lance, reinforcements to his left, Lance to his right.

Noelle was able to dodge the dagger Lucien had tried to drag across her face, she had kind of expected that but hadn't thought he would call for backups. Shit..
She was going to back for another swing when some guy she had never seen before practically stepped out in front of her, taking the blade of the sword right through his forearm. In surprise, Noelle let go of the handle and felt the small prick of something hit her skin, whoever was Lucien's little helper had somehow managed to prick her with something.. Wooziness slowly set in, she struggled to keep her eyes open, I can't fall asleep.. not now.. The last thing Noelle could see was Lance turning completely into his other form and stalking Leo and with one last burst before the tonic had finished it's round in her system was, "Charlie, help Leo.." than she was out..

In the small space it seemed unwise that the young man release such powerful amounts of magic but it did not deter the man it seemed. Zero caught the falling girl so that she would not be in danger and rolled out of the way of he vortex let the water lighting break against the walls of the tunnel. The sparks continued to dance along the fallen puddles of water making it harder to move about the tunnel. The cut under his arm burned under the weight of the girl. He quickly radio for more back up as the situation was growing out of hand. “Remember Lucien we need that beast alive.” He watched the magic user try to talk to the beast and shook his head. As much as he needed to disable the lad with so much power, the fox would kill him if he simply let him sleep. Rolling his thumb over the safety latch, Zero aimed his gun at the Kitsune and fired a shot at his chest.

Seeing Noelle go down, Leo realized allies were falling quickly. He needed to think of a plan if they wanted to get out of here in one peace. "Ok.... once more...." he said to himself. He began weaving hand seals. "Serpent, Rat, Dragon, Monkey, Tiger, Dog! Ice style... Permafrost Barrier!" Suddenly glaives of permafrost ice blocked the exits and openings preventing anything from coming out or in. "There.. that oughta hold them back for a while.." *Thinking* (Damn though.. I just halfed my strength by pulling off 3 jutsu when my limit was two.. I'll be useless in battle now..)

Xlcharlie but her lip as she worried about which one to take care of. Turning to glance at Leo then to Lance she sighed and score pulling the pin and tossing the flash bomb as close to Lucien as she could manage in the air. Turning as quickly as she could she pushed Leo down to save his eyes from being temporary blinded. "Hurry and get Noelle out of here, while I attempt to get Lance." Hissing the order to Leo and turning to get the Kitsune.

Leo looked dumbfounded at Charlie. He wanted to argue that there was no way she could take them all on her own. He stood up drawing his sword. "I already sealed all of the exits. It's either us or them. I can take the reinforcement group if you can control Lance." He said back to back facing the reinforcement group.

"If we could just knock Lance out an blin the enemies long enough to get out of here and to a new safe house them we should be safe. Just do what you can with the lowest number of dead bodies possible please." She murres and swung the flame thrower around in front of her. "Shall we play with fire for now?"
