"KILL THE WHITE DEVIL!" yelled a group of goblins as they circled around Lufia, all holding an assortment of looted weapons.

"What are you waiting for then, you monsters?" Lufia asked, her white robes spotted with slowly fading blood splatter (Magically treated to make it stain resistant. Still needs to be properly cleaned later though.), "Or do you fear this?"

The White Mage then held out her hammer, the end of it dripping with goblin blood.

"FEAR NO! KILL!" yelled a goblin as it broke 'formation' and charged at Lufia with a sword that was definitely too big for it to properly use.

Lufia swung her hammer, the clang of metal ringing out as it hit the goblin's sword. The heavier mass of the hammer knocked the sword away and into the leg of one of the surrounding goblins. She spun around after the swing to build up momentum and hit the goblin afterwards, brutally smashing through makeshift armor and bone before sending it flying into another goblin around her.

"Who's next!?"

"This big one seems like a leader," Sendis replied as she parried a blow from one of the smaller Goblins and slashed at it with her sword.

The goblins surrounding Lufia looked at each other before finally all looking as if they agreed on something. They then finally decided on coming ALL AT ONCE rather than one at a time.

"Oh, great... Not enough magic power to deal with that all at once..." Lufia mumbled before rushing towards the nearest goblins, sending two of them flying with a swing of her hammer, and running through the gap.

"FOLLOW!" a random goblin in the group yelled.

Seeing Lufia in trouble, Dani redirected her attention, firing a burst of electricity toward the white mage's assailants. It struck one of the goblins, then swept around to the others, disrupting their attacks with electric pain. The attack was effective, but Dani frowned - she could feel her reserves running on low.

"Whew, thanks Dani," Lufia said, "How's your magic power holding up?"

"LEADER!?" the large one let out, "HA, HA, HA, HA! ME NO LEADER! IF I LEADER, YOU DEAD ALREADY!"

Clashing with Derry again, a new thought seemed to come to the dark goblin.

"IF I LEADER, YOU OURS!" it grinned, "I MAKE YOU OURS FOR LEADER! GET THE FEMALES!"

The Viera, however, growled in anger.

"You wretched creature!" he shouted, rearing back and slamming his blade back against the goblin's with incredible force, knocking it back.

That wasn't very good, especially since they thought he was one. As two more grunt-like goblins replaced the alrger one, Derry took a quick glance around and noticed Lufia's situation.

"Lufia!" he called out parrying the first's attack, "Pull back and concentrate on healing."

It was time to put forth everything.

"Ah'm coming Derry!" A gruff shout sounded from behind a Goblin that menaced the Viera, a Goblin who very quickly fell forward with a gurgled squawk as Derry embedded his hammer into its spine.

"A fine fight isn't it?!" Derry asked before blocking another Goblin's strike with his hammer, a mad grin beaming from the Moogle's face.

Sendis made a face underneath her visor. "Is he serious? I'd sooner slit my own throat," she said, clashing swords with one of the smaller Goblins. Blocking the sword strike with the tip of her spear and parrying it out of the way, she stabbed the Goblin in the chest.

"I'm a little low," Dani said. She heard the goblin boss's declaration, and was somewhat disturbed when no more of them headed towards her than already had been - she directed the lightning back downward - but chose to believe, Artesia's ribbing aside, that it's because they were dissuaded by the lightning.

"Remind me to buy you some Ethers later in return," Lufia said as she backed towards Dani's position and away from the lightning strikes.

Looking around, she quickly dropped her hammer and clasped her hands together.

"Oh, blessed and humble hand of God, life and breath of Mother Earth, come before me and show your great compassion and deliver us... CURE 2!"

Sparkles of green swirled around Zereal, Sendis, Kai, Rai, Derry, and Nicus, the power of the healing spell divided equally between them.

Derry knocked the smaller goblin's blade up and then slashed downward, splitting the creature's front as the moogle came into view.

"A fine fight indeed," he smirked, "They've decided women seem like an attractive prize for the battle. We'll have to be careful."

And then a particularly nasty goblin, a Knocker, stepped through the brawling masses led by the black one.

"WHERE THE FEMALES AT!?" it gurgled in delight.

"FEMALES EVERYWHERE, MASTER!" the other replied, "DELICIOUS WHITE ONE THERE! BUNNIES OUT THERE TOO! POINTY ONE ROUND BEHIND!"

"RAAAAAAAAAARGH!" the Knocker roared, "KILL MEN! TAKE WOMEN! CHARGE! I EVEN HELP!"

And the goblins were filled with vigor at the thought.

"Sendis, stay close," he said, as much for his own safety as hers, "Dani, Lufia, fall back behind the warriors."

"Wherever you are Faris, be careful."

Kupek contrinued to wrangle his controls within the mekka as fast as he could manage. The mekka, for it's part, showed it's springwrung strength as it battled the goblin horde. A right hook sent one goblin flying violently backwards, and a backhanded swing from its left hand brutally floored another. As he looked out from his tiny porthole, Kupek watched as goblin blades lashed out at him, only to meet the thin barrier of steel that lay between. The young moogle worked his controls over once more, and scooped up a gobin as others moved to attack. He promptly tossed the ugly wriggling creature at its allies, who swiped their blades to push the creautre away.

How horrible, he thought. If they were this mericiless with their own...

He tried not to pursue that line of thought further as he scrambled to put together another bomb. To his side, he could see his allies fighting as well.

"WHERE THE FEMALES AT!?"

"FEMALES EVERYWHERE, MASTER! DELICIOUS WHITE ONE THERE! BUNNIES OUT THERE TOO! POINTY ONE ROUND BEHIND!"

"RAAAAAAAAAARGH! KILL MEN! TAKE WOMEN! CHARGE! I EVEN HELP!"


Derry gave warnings to the group, and Kupek clenched his jaw. "Gotta get through me to get to them, kupo," he growled quietly to himself. He quickly moved in closer to his teammates, and felt a trickle of sweat move down his temple. Moving the mekka this much was tiring work...

Sendis moved to Derry's side her blades at the ready. She relaxed ever so slightly when Kupek and his mekka showed up at her side. Something about a huge metal encased moogle made her feel more at ease.

Lufia reached into her robes and pulled out the bottle of Ether that she carried with her before carefully tossing it upwards at Dani.

"Here, take this," she said, "you need it more than me."

"How many times is this now?"

"You vulgar fiends can have the women over our cold, dead bodies. Good luck attempting it." Raidou called out, approaching the fallen Red Goblin and bringing the Cutlass down upon it's neck, beheading the creature. Turning to look in Lufia's, Sendis's, and Dani's general direction, he saw a decent number of the enemies making their way to try and surround them. Derry and Nicus seemed to be occupied dealing with another half of the Goblins, while Kupek played iron wall to the girls to defend them.

Looking around, he didn't really see much of a sign of either Faris, nor the guy with the gun. Perhaps hey were fighting elsewhere with the team leaders and Zereal... Though last he recalled, he saw Faris take to the tree's to ambush some of the creatures. After several moments, he sidestepped the charge of another Goblin and made his way towards Kupek, slicing several random Goblins that attempted to get in his way.

"Hold on, friend! I'll have your back covered!" Raidou called out, leaping atop several Goblin heads and dodging various thrown projectiles.

Kailan rushed in the battle together with the others (OOC: Sorry, poor Kay had some health\pc issues...) wielding the two blades and attacking a poor goblin that wasn't expecting really to be charged by the knight...

As long his movements looked lacking of experience the skills were decent enough to withstand a small group of the creatures...

"I'm keeping another bunch of them busy this part..." He said while dodging and parrying the attack of the gobs... "Let's dispatch them..." He added reversing the grasp on his swords and stabbing them into a goblin chest...

Faris twisted out of the way and sliced a neck of a charing goblin. The Viera turned in time to shove the weapon of another goblin away but was knocked to the ground from behind. "Not good..." she hissed, scrambling as the two goblins grabbed at her.

"Bun-bun girl have nice, round-" the goblin was cut off a moment later as the silver haired woman's foot connected with it's exposed throat.

"Keep those thoughts to yourself!" she grumbled and slashed her dagger into the other monster's hand. Finally climbing back to her feet, Faris turned and noticed she had somehow managed to move away from the rest of the group. It didn't escape her ears though as the goblins began to rally behind their leader, to take the women and kill the men off. It would take her some time to make her way back to the others but if she didn't...

"HEY!!" a nearby goblin cried, "PHAT ONE HERE!"

"Fat?!" Faris spat before turning into a defensive stance.

"I'm good for now," Dani said, aiming the next spell to support the fighters' position. The goblins approached the tree again as her attention was diverted, some of them carrying corpses of their comrades as shields. "Damn, maybe I should move," she muttered, edging along the branch and eyeing the route to the trees nearest the others.

"Stand aside...!" Raidou yelled out, using a Rush attack to shoulder-rush a Goblin into another. As he watched the Goblins carrying corpses advance on Dani's position, he raised his sword and charged forward, raking the blade aacross the back of one Goblin before kicking it aside. There was still several more to go, however, as he attempted to carve out a decent number of them.

"Hurry, while i'm thinning their numbers. Proceed to a new vantage point!" he called out to Dani, ducking a Goblin that swung the corpse of it's ally as a weapon to try to hit the individual.

[Yay, I'm back! Now to think up an excuse for Mac to be out of the battle for a bit...]

Standing up in the boughs of a tree, Micherin took aim with his rifle and opened fire on one of the Goblins... and missed, grazing the ear of the green thing with the bullet.
"GRAAAAAAH!" The goblin howled in pain as he grabbed at his left ear, a little bit of blood leaking down his face. Looking up at the guilty party, the Goblin charged the tree and rammed it with the Goblin's best weapon: it's head.
The tree Mac was standing in cracked slightly at the point of impact, sending the gunman falling from the branches into a bush below the tree - whacking his head rather hard on an upturned root. Believing Micerhin to be dead, the Goblin rubbed it's ear and charged back into the battle.

A rather large lump growing on his head, Micerhin lay in a semi-consious state hidden away from a fair percent of the battle. His mind drifted back and forth between consiousness and darkness, until a few words shot across the battlefield.

"IF I LEADER, YOU OURS! I MAKE YOU OURS FOR LEADER! GET THE FEMALES! WHERE THE FEMALES AT!?"
"FEMALES EVERYWHERE, MASTER! DELICIOUS WHITE ONE THERE! BUNNIES OUT THERE TOO! POINTY ONE ROUND BEHIND!"


"...I think that's my cue to get off my ass..." Mac groaned as he sat up, his left hand rubbing the back of his head. He blinked a few times, trying to actually see straight.

"RAAAAAAAAAARGH! KILL MEN! TAKE WOMEN! CHARGE! I EVEN HELP!"

"Yeah, definately a cue to get up and fight back." he mumbled, pulling free of the bush and checking his rifle for damage as he charged back into the fray.
Faris, just stay safe, Micerhin found a thought echoing in the back of his head as he rammed the butt of his rifle into the face of a smaller Goblin, seeing the Viera charge off out of the corner of his eye, after another Goblin.

"HEY!!" a nearby goblin cried, "PHAT ONE HERE!"
"Fat?!"


"...ah, great." Mac grinned grimly, as he looked over to the Goblin who'd accidentally insulted Faris, "Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned... especially one with knives."
Taking a brief moment to look around the battlefield, Mac saw Faris' ears sticking up over a rather tall series of bushes off in the distance. His grin turning more into one of enjoyment, Mac charged toward where he hoped Faris was. Sliding past Goblin after Goblin, Micerhin took opportunities to take potshots at a few of the enemy, killing one or two and merely wounding the others he shot at. Picking up speed, Mac tossed off his coat and the brown and goldish vest beneath, revealing a bandolier of bullets around his torso and a crimson long-sleeved shirt.
Sliding into the bushes as if he were sliding into home plate feet-first, Micerhin tore through the bushes and...

...got stuck in the bush, his boots sticking out of the rather large bush.
"Mugph..." Micerhin grumbled as he stood up and began to tear through the bush, his shirt ripping slightly in a few places and chunks of the shrubbery attaching themselves to him in various ways - emerging in front of Faris and her Goblin attacker looking more like a plant-man than a Hume.

"Moving," Dani replied, scooting along the branch and jumping to the next tree. "Thanks!" She fired a bolt at some unprotected goblins, then moved again to the next tree.

As the group continued fighting the goblins back, Nicus's moogle ears twitched with Derry's noticing not but a second later.

"Derry..." the moogle let out, quite serious and intenly.

"Ha!" Derry cried, knocking a goblin back, "What is it."

"Launch me!"

Looking at his smaller companion, Derry understood.

"Very well..." he grunted, heafting the moogle, "GO!"

And Nicus was flying through the air toward Nicus and Mic.

Derry's aim was true, and though the Viera didn't have much in the way of raw, brute strength compared to some, he did get Nicus close enough to his target for the Moogle's wings to land him next to the stranded Viera.

"DARGH!" The Moogle roared even as an errant swipe from a Goblin's blade took a nick off his ear, and nearly took his pom-pom too. The Goblin earned a crushed knee for that strike.

"C'MON YOU UGLY GITS, JUST ONE LITTLE MOOGLE IN BETWEEN YEW AND YER PRIZE HERE!" Nicus bared his teeth and grinned madly as blood began to trickle down his fur and face from his wounded ear. "Don't be shy now!"

Twisting her dagger, Faris use it's handle to smash in the insulting goblin's nose and grinned slightly to herself. "That's what you get..." she quietly muttered, and watched as the goblin staggered back in pain. It grabbed for it's nose before letting out a groaning shout and swung it's arm at her. The club the goblin had nearly sailed out of it's hand and Faris jumped back. The goblin growled as she avoided it's hit, "YOU SIT!!" and swung once more at her. The Viera slide on her foot to the side, and ducked out of the way. From her crouched position, Faris slashed at it's thigh before twisting her dagger back into it's proper position in her hand, before stabbing it into the monster's stomach.

She stood slowly, watching as the goblin fell back with a quiet thud. Breathing deeply, she glanced around to unsure her companions conditions, Dani and Raidou seemed to be having problems near the trees and Nicus seemed to flying towards her.

"That's something..." she muttered before a loud thrashing in the bushes behind the silver haired woman caught her attention. Spinning with her dagger drawn, the Viera blinked in surprise as a great bushy, grassy man stood before her. It took her only a moment to realize who it really was though.

"Mac?" Faris called out when three more goblins appeared around and started attacking Nicus. She looked back startled but charged forward in a rush to aid the older Moggle. "Help!"

"Well, just hold onto the bottle and drink some if you need it," Lufia replied to Dani while she focused some magic and lifted her oversized hammer once again. The goblins that survived Dani's earlier wide-range bolt spell had regrouped and were charging towards her.

"Heh, I need to conserve my energy too. If only there was a way to take them all do *BUMP* Hmmm... That might work." she thought as she stepped back and bumped into the tree that Dani was formerly in. Facing the tree, she quickly hit it twice near the base with the pointy end of her hammer, leaving significant holes. She then circled around behind, charged for a heavy hit and waited...
