[Thread, Battle in Wutai]

[livelyangel.livejournal.com]

Characters: Rinoa, Vincent, OPEN to anyone defending Wutai
Progress: Ongoing
Summary: There's this undead army...
Location: Wutai
Date: November 19th, 1804. This is after Yuffie's message, so they'll probably arrive later in the day.
Warnings: Violence

Looking out from the deck of the airship as they touched down on Wutai revealed a most gruesome sight: Lufene's army, swarming over the island. There was no sign of Lufene herself, which meant that they'd probably missed her. Rinoa swallowed, her resolve threatening to waver, but she gripped her staff tightly and nodded to Vincent. She could do this.

If he had had one of his other guns as well as Cerberus with him, Vincent would have acted as a sniper, and shot at the monsters below while the airship was still approaching. As it was, it was only as the airship drew close to the ground that his gun became of any use.

He raised his weapon and nodded back to her, before picking out his targets and firing at them.

Rinoa jumped down to the ground, staff at the ready, and immediately recoiled as a gust of wind blew the most horrible stench into her face. Whatever these dead things were, they had been rotting for a long time.

Still, Rinoa knew the best way to deal with these creatures. Burn them. She choked back her revulsion and cast Firaga at every monster nearby.

Vincent did not move any further into the crowd of undead. For the moment, it would simply get in the way of Rinoa's spells, and if he wanted to conserve his ammunition, then going into the middle of the fray, where he would be surrounded on all sides, would not be a wise idea. For the moment, he remained standing next to Rinoa, picking his shots at any of the monsters that managed to get through the Firaga and come further toward the.

Jenova battle! [for everyone interested!]

Yuffie had battled her way through the undead to find the one thing she was looking for - Jenova. It loomed over everything, striking down those that tired to take it out.

The single white rose of Wutai would have nothing of it. She was tired, she was sore, and most of all, she was angry. Her shuriken was immediately launched at the hulking beast.

"What is that?"

Ugh, it was vile. It felt like some kind of concentrated malevolence was blazing from it, some primal intelligence that wanted only to destroy. Or maybe it was just really, really ugly.

Fire had worked well on the other undead monsters around them. Rinoa tried it again, but although the weaker monsters nearby succumbed to the spell, this thing was clearly going to take some beating.

Finding itself attacked, the creature cast Stop at its nearest opponent.

The stainless steel of his blade was already drenched with blood by the time he reached the malevolent entity that loomed nearby. Ramza didn't know what to think of this hideous macabre of putrid might, but he wasn't going to give up. Yuffie's kingdom was in turmoil, and if his blade falters the people here shall be in jeopardy. This was all Ramza could think about. His desire to assist the people of Wutai outnumbered his fears, thus he bravely charged towards Jenova without an ounce of fear.

The fiend tried to halt his approach with a 'Stop' spell, but the swordsman was too nimble to ensnare in that magical spell. Ramza cut his Runeblade through the creature's side, stabbing it quickly before making a hasty retreat. He wanted to keep the Jenova's focus upon him so the others could barrage it with a multitude of attacks.

There was no time to prepare for an onslaught like this. Never enough time to prepare for another one of Gaia's challenges. Marquis Ondore had hoped that the Enkidu would be combat ready before Lufene strikes, but it seems that luck has turned against the weary marquis yet again. Quite agitated with this current state of affairs, Marquis Ondore had to wonder why on earth Lindblum has failed to act in unison with the alliance. Alexandria has lent their aid to Troia, causing their forces dwindle significantly during the onslaught. There was no way that Alexandria could lend their aid to Wutai, therefore the Marquis had to intervene directly.

Roughly sending about three thousand troops to assist Wutai's forces along with his aerial fleet of two thousand or less ships, Ondore couldn't help but wonder if this was a losing battle. He arrived in Wutai on edge, watching as the country began to crumble beneath the behemoth's feet. Jenova loomed within the distance while numerous fiends lined the streets. Attempting to find Princess Kisaragi during this chaos, Marquis Ondore moved carefully with his trusted bodyguards by his side.

The Princess of Wutai was in the midst of battle, knee-deep in undead foes. While what remaining people fought to push them back, Jenova was the bigger threat. Her shuriken came flying around, and she jumped into the air to catch it. She leaned over, taking in a few much needed deep breaths.

The ninja jumped out of the way of one of Jenova's laser attacks, rolling off to the side and launching her shuriken at the beast once again. She'd really kill for some materia right now.

Rinoa kept her distance, circling the creature as she waited for an opening to make her move. She knew that it would take a more powerful spell to defeat Jenova but she didn't want to accidentally hurt any of her allies. Her chance came when Ramza retreated.

Flare blasted through the ranks of the undead surrounding Jenova before hitting its true target. The monster reeled back, clearly hurt, but it wasn't dead yet. This would be a tough battle.
