Micerhin froze up slightly as he looked at the bleeding Moogle, then to Faris, the back to Nicus again.
"...my profuse apologies, my friend," Mac grinned sheepishly, feeling insanely stupid at the moment, "My head's not been on straight during this fight - something I intend to rectify immediately."
Reaching into the pouch on his left pant leg, Micerhin took out two vials of potion and handed them down to the Moogle, "Here's hoping I don't make blunders that big again, lest it cost someone their life later on."

"Anyone is keeping track of how many of them we're cutting?" Kailan said dodging an incoming goblin and double slashing his back before spinning on himself to parry another attack... "You know it should be time for them to notice that they were being beated like pulp..."

The bunny woman blushed ever so slightly as Mac returned her potion and was opening her mouth to point out his mistake but it seemed both men were quickly making plans to return to the group. Her visible eye darted between them and she suddenly smirked at Nicus' next words;

"Uh laddie, I believe that potion may have been intended for me, and I'd like it, please."

Faris snickered at Mac's 'hand in the cookie jar' look but shook her head again and stepped closer to the gunman, watching as he handed a set of smaller vials to the older Moogle. "Don't worry, I'll make sure you pay attention from now on." The silver haired woman watched him for a moment then reached to touch Mac's head but drew her hand back and looking away from him quickly.

"I'm sorry that happened... I should have been watching out for you." She looked over towards him again and whispered quietly; "Once this is all done, I'll nurse you back to proper, and perfect health."

The Viera moved away suddenly and looked towards Nicus, "Will that be enough for your wounds? I have a larger vial, if you need it."

"Sendis!" Kupek shouted as he saw the black Goblin charging at her. With the moogle working his controls frantically, the mekka moved forward, two goblins hanging off its shoulders and tried to get close enough to help. Swinging one of the mekkas arm controlling grips forward, Kupek tried to give the armored woman's parry an edge- his mekka's knuckles, aimed at the beasts head.

"I won't let you hurt my friends, kupo!"

In reply the Moogle quickly downed the two potions in rapid order, tossing the empty bottles away as the liquid coursed through his veins. He could feel his vision begin to clear, and could even feel his wounds slow their bleeding and begin to knit back together. Aye, that was the stuff.

"I'll be fine," Nicus said nonchalantly. "But I think we're wasting time now. Come, let us rejoin our comrades!"

"How many times is this now?"

"Gah, I wish Regen did a better job at dealing with fatigue,"

"That's what I was trying to get at before... It'll deal with small wounds, but it won't stop getting exhausted." he commented, swinging vertically with the Cutlass, slicing another Goblin across the chest. "Let's just make our way back towards the others so we can have an easier time holding them back." he commented, before looking in the distance towards Sendis fighting a black Goblin, with Kupek on his way to support.

"I wonder if that's the leader..." he commented, before looking back into the tree's towards Dani's position. "Hey! Should we move away from this position and rejoin the others?" he asked.

"A bit closer, anyway," Dani called down. "Better Aim. And more people to watch out for Lufia." She frowned a bit, still hoping that the goblins weren't thinking what she thought they were thinking, as she jumped to the next tree nearer the group.

"A bit closer, anyway. Better Aim. And more people to watch out for Lufia."

"Alright then, we'll follow right behind." he waved, before turning around and ushering Lufia along. "We've moving out of this area for a bit. Come on." he spoke, holding his cutlass out if the other surrounding enemies thought to get the idea of getting close.

"Coming," Lufia replied to Rai, dragging her hammer along as she moved back in the direction that Dani had gone.

"Keep your distance." Raidou spat towards an enemy goblin that attempted to get close, only to get part of it's face sliced by the swing of the Cutlass. As the creature recoilled back and held it's face, Raidou jabbed his Cutlass into it's stomach and tore upwards with it, before following with a roundhouse kick to knock the carcass away. He then backstepped and took up his usual position of guarding the White Mage en route to the others.

"We're almost there... Are you 2 up to helping Sendis take out that Black Goblin?" he asked, looking towards Lufia and Dani.

Within range of the others, Dani saw a group of Goblins with a space in the middle. Wanting to take advantage of the setup, she did as she'd told lufia and strengthened her legs slightly, jumping out of the tree with her hands crackling with electricity.

"GAH! Lightning man!" The goblins squealed, moving away. "What you wants?"

Dani's eyebrow quirked, her fears confirmed. She raised both hands, the power in them growing as her hat's shadow sunk over her face. "I AM A WOMAN, YOU PRICKS!" she shouted, sending a bright bolt upwards into a cloud floating overhead. The return stroke eclipsed the spell, covering nearly the entire circle she'd been threatening. However, she was well out of the way by then clashing swords with one of the goblins slightly further away.

"GAH! Lightning man! What you wants?"

Raidou stopped to listen to the Goblin's speech, before he raised his hand. "Err... Perhaps I should tell you now that Da-" he began, before he heard the sound of light thunder booming. Looking up towards the heavens, he knew the goblins were in for a world of hurt.

"I AM A WOMAN, YOU PRICKS!"

Sure enough, a bolt of lightning ascended into the sky and leapt into a cloud, where it promptly dropped down with several allied thunderbolts into the circular collection of goblins. Raidou looked on with a mix of amazement and fear, shaking his head.

"I tried to warn them..." he spoke quietly, before returning to his duties.

"Who cares, they won't listen anyway," Lufia commented as she continued along, dragging her hammer behind her.

"Don't worry, I'll make sure you pay attention from now on."

"With you by my side, I'm sure I'll be perfec-" Micerhin's words were cut off by a soft curse slipping from his own lips as Faris' fingers brushed along the rather large lump on the back of his head, leftover from his run-in with one of the harder-headed Goblins.

"I'm sorry that happened... I should have been watching out for you."

"Watching out for me? Madamme Faris, I'm touched, bu-"

"Once this is all done, I'll nurse you back to proper, and perfect health."

"...nevermind, then." Mac continued, not missing a beat as a soft flush fell over his face and a smirk appearing on his lips, "I suppose that's one more reason for me to keep watching over my commerades, then."

"Will that be enough for your wounds? I have a larger vial, if you need it."
"I'll be fine. But I think we're wasting time now. Come, let us rejoin our comrades!"


"Yes, indeed, Nicus." Mac nodded in reply, relieved that the Moogle was feeling better, "Here's hoping there aren't too many of these Goblins left."

Kupek struggled to stay at Sendis' side, but the two Goblin's on his shoulders seemed to be putting two and two together and it was wreaking havoc on his limited fighting ability.

"BIG BAD HOLLOW?! LITTLE GUY INSIDE!"

"MAKE WITH THE STABBITY STAB!"

One of the Goblins jabbed his blade in through the mekka's porthole and the young moogle barely moved his head out out of the way in time. Unfortunately for Kupek, his bright red pom-pom wasn't as fortunate, and it swept along the edge of the weapon. "ARGH!" the boy cried out, and blood splashed out onto his left eye from the wound. The mekka, in reaction to this, wobbled backwards with it's arms pinwheeling. The goblins held on as best they could.

"GOT LITTLE GUY INSIDE! BOOM SHAKALA!" the horrible creature screeched in triumph. The bolt of lightning cast by Dani drew their attention away, however...

"Oh no! Kupek!" Lufia exclaimed as she saw a goblin reach in and try to stab inside the mekka.

Charging magic in her hands, the White Mage spun around and flung her oversized hammer towards the mekka. The heavy metal weapon knocked off one of the two goblins before crashing to the ground nearby.

"Grab my hammer and use it to smash the enemy!" Lufia then called out, "I'll have you healed up in a moment!"

Clasping her hands together, Lufia began to chant another spell.

"Life's refreshing breeze, blow in energy! Cure!"

"Lufia..." The moogle managed. With his vision blurred by tears of pain, he tried to make use of the advantage she had given him. The first goblin had suffered the double whammy of being knocked away and having his face smashed in by the sudden appearance of Lufia's hammer, and the moogle gritted his teeth as he manipulated his controls to deal with the other. Yanking the other goblin off roughly and throwing him to the ground, he tried to work quickly.

As it hefted the white mage's hammer with both hands, the mekka's joints wheezed from it's weight. But the moogle paid them no mind- motivated by rage, Kupek lifted the hammer into the air and brought it down on the beast, and was rewarded with a sickeningly soft crunch for his effort.

The mekka then plodded forward and put the hammer down next to the Lufia. "I...I'm okay, kupo." he said, already feeling the curative effects of her spell. Inside the mekka, the young moogle swiped his hand up and cleared away the blood from his face and the tears from his eyes. "I owe you one, kupo..." The mekka's head perked up. "Sendis!"

Faris nodded as Nicus spoke before looking back towards Mac and watched him as he agreed. With both men pushing for the same goal now, the silver haired woman started to move away.

"Come on then, let's hurry before our friends are overrun."

"Come on then, let's hurry before our friends are overrun."

"They won't be, so long as we have a say in the matter." Micerhin nodded in reply, a grin across his face, "With all of us standing united, something tells me we're more than a match for those Goblins."

"BEWARE! I LIVE!" came a roar from an oddly-shaped Goblin, more round than any of the others, "I HUNGER!"
Letting out a bellowing cry that shocked even a few of the grunts standing nearby, the rotound goblin charged forward.

"...and it looks like we've got our work cut out for us." Mac shook his head as he loaded his rifle.

"Aye, and?" Nicus said amiably. "Now were ya planning to sit around all day, or are ye gonna shoot that Fat Bastard?" Nicus said pointedly. He wouldn't admit it, but the combat was beginning to get to him, and his brown fur was matting down with blood and sweat, while his chest heaved a bit and his muscles began to take on the dull ache of a long, hard workout.

"Aye, and? Now were ya planning to sit around all day, or are ye gonna shoot that Fat Bastard?"

"...I was getting to that," Mac looked a little embarrassed as he took aim at the charging rotund goblin and took fire at the arms flailing around it's planet-like body and took two shots in quick succession. The first shot missed, but the second shot went right through the wildly flying right hand, creating a quarter-sized hole through it's flesh.
"Leave now or it's your head next." Mac glared at the now-hesitant Goblin, cradling it's hand and poking a finger through the hole experimentally. Looking back up, the Goblin took a deep breath.

"I HUNGER! I AM SINI-" came the roar from the Goblin's throat, cut short as a bullet ripped through the green flesh of the Goblin's chest, dropping him dead.

"...ok, so I was actually aiming for the head that time." Micerhin sighed softly as he loaded a few fresh cartridges into his rifle to replace the ones spent.

"Take care of my hammer for me!" Lufia called out to Kupek as she clapped her hands and prepared to cast another healing spell to whoever needed it.

"Right!" the young moogle shouted back to Lufia, and the mekka lifted the giant hammer once more, taking up a defensive stance. The joints hissed in protest, and Kupek clenched his jaw.

Please hold together, mekka!

"I've just about had it with you!" Sendis cried. The long battle, and constant deprivations that the Goblins threw at Derry and herself one after the other had taken a toll on her general patiencen ad respect for life.

Before the Captain could utter another insinuation Sendis surged forward and stabbed him in the sword arm. The monster roared in pain but before he could do anything else she lopped off his other arm with her sword and delivered a visored headbutt into his face. There was a sickening crack as the Captain's nose was broken. Sendis withdrew her blood smeared helmet and slashed her sword across his throat. With a gurgle the Goblin fell down dead.

The young woman pulled her visor up and wiped some blood that had flown through the visor with the back of her hand. "Remind me never to aim for the nose again."

"I'm surprised these beasts haven't gotten the thought to flee the area. At this rate, i'll be too tired to do anything else after this...!" Raidou groaned, as he swung forward with the Cutlass and sliced it across the chest of another opposing Goblin. From behind that one, another rushed forward and swung a club for the boy's head. A quick raise of the cutlass parried the weapon before he whirled around and swung the blade to decapitate the foe. As he recovered from the spin, another goblin from behind ran up and punched the boy forward.

"Ugh... I hate these things." he sighed, turning around and preparing to attack. However, he noticed another Goblin behind the first one... He figured it was attempting to ambush him when he killed the goblin in front. Running forward, Raidou held the sword out and made it appear as if he was gonna attack the one in front. Instead, however, he leapt up and used the first Goblin as a springboard toward the one in behind.

"WHAT YOU DO!?" the Goblin shrieked as he looked up, blinded by the sun behind... Before a blade was driven down through his mouth, killing him instantly. Wrenching the blade out and kicking the corpse away, the Fighter whirled around and slammed the blade through the Goblin that was now behind him.
