PLOT: Refined Shell battle!

[theearth]

Who: Open!
What: Crustacean commotion. CRAB BATTLE.
When: 26th September, daytime
Where: Las Vegas, flooded area and surroundings
Warnings: Violence. If your thread requires more warnings, please note them in your comment header!


[ At eleven AM, a pulsing shockwave resonates throughout Las Vegas. Seemingly coming from somewhere deep underground, the ripple of force doesn't last long - but that doesn't mean that it isn't strong enough to make any nearby reincarnates stumble or fall.

The quake that happens soon afterwards is much stronger. Unlike the last, it seems to rumble on and on... until it reaches its crescendo with the emergence of a monstrous pink crabster from beneath the recently-flooded area of the city. A miniature tsunami accompanies the 300-foot behemoth, further damaging the surroundings not already levelled by the flooding and the quakes.

It doesn't take long for Refined Shell to get its bearings and begin its rampage. Everything within range can expect to be swiped at, stamped on or crushed between its pincers in its mindless rage.

You might say it seems to be feeling a touch... crabby. ]

Carry them...?

[She looked from the injured party, to Fuyuka.]

A-are you sure?

[seed_of_memory]

They obviously can't walk. And I'm strong enough to get them there quickly, which is good because they need immediate attention.

... But that would mean leaving you alone to help guide these people until I can get back...

[charcoalfeather]

Uh...

[She looked from the people, to Fuyuka, and back.]

...I could do it! It wouldn't be too hard.

[seed_of_memory]

... Alright.

[she nodded slowly, and moved to the injured individual. Making sure they were properly supported, she lifted them gently, and began to rise]

I'll meet up with you as soon as this one is safe... don't be afraid. Believe in yourself, alright?

[charcoalfeather]

...Okay.

[She nodded, more determined than before. She watched her fly away for a moment before turning back to the rest of the people.]

Okay, we're going to get you out of here! Just, follow me, and be careful.

[Right, be careful. She had to follow her own advice as she stepped as carefully as possible over the rubble.]

[seed_of_memory]

[it will be a while before Fuyuka can find her way back. For now, though, everything seems to be going well, with them managing to get pretty far on their own... when suddenly, the ground collapses beneath one person, causing them to scream just before they barely catch the edge and avoid falling]

H-Help me...!

[charcoalfeather]

Oh no!

[It was going so well until it wasn't. Rakka gasped and hurried over, kneeling down to grab onto the person, pulling with everything she had. Which, admittedly, wasn't much.]

Ugh.... Hold on! Someone help me!

[seed_of_memory]

[several of the others rush to Rakka's side, grabbing the person's arm and helping her pull them to safety. Once that's done... the person begins to sob, hugging Rakka out of the blue]

Th-thank you! Thank you so much! You saved my life!

[charcoalfeather]

[The suddenness of the hug surprised Rakka. Still a bit shocked, she returned the hug, patting them on the back.]

Uh... Y-yeah, I did. You're welcome! Now, come on! We need to get out of here!

[seed_of_memory]

[they nodded, and once they were helped to their feet, they were good to go. When they reached the surface, Rakka would have some very grateful people thanking her]
