Characters: Lufene, everyone who wants to go after her
Progress: Ongoing
Summary: The intrepid heroes of Gaia seize their chance to board the Lunatic Pandora and attempt to stop its progress.
Location: Lunatic Pandora (over Fum)
Date: 19th April, 1805
Warnings: Violence
Since it began its journey two days ago, the Lunatic Pandora had made its way slowly but surely across the Outer Continent, nearing its final destination with every passing second.
The sky around it was soon dotted with airships, come to track its progress. But none could yet halt it. To even make such an attempt, a party would need to get inside - and in the heart of the Pandora, Lufene was waiting.
[ooc: See this post for plotting! I will put up threads for the different groups. Feel free to start your own subthreads - and please, threadjack away! No posting order, let's do this party style. \o/]

"Frimelda, let's try a pincer attack! Go for the flanks!"

She backed up two steps, before rushing towards the thing, blades clearly on the offensive, matching her speed to Cecil's.

"Run, Laguna!" Cecil called, barely having time to pull his sword from the beast's side before it charged.

Grimancing, Frimelda held both blades to her body, as she sprinted from her side of the room to where Laguna was, making it there mere miliseconds before the beast made contact, drawing both her swords up in defense to cover both her and Laguna, as it threw its whole body weight at her.
This time, she really did wince as pain shot through her arms, making her double over as the monster pulled back for another go. She was strong, but there were limits. "Laguna... how do you fare?" she tried. She then looked to Rosa and Cecil. "It is still dizzy! If we attempt to knock it off balance, it will give us time to end this!"

The other woman had a valid point, but Rosa didn't dare get any closer. Though it was a long shot, she attempted to cast Hold on it. At the very least, she might be able to trip it up a bit before it broke free.

Date: 2011-04-29 01:20 am (UTC)"Frimelda, now! Join your powers with mine!" He levelled his holy sword at the beast and readied to move in and strike once more. If it worked, the two of them would be able to Band and defeat it.

Date: 2011-04-30 03:59 pm (UTC)"My powers with yours?" she queried, but only for a moment; it was clear what to do. And somewhat of a blessing the T-Rexaur was still: the knock she had had sent her balance a little off ways, but it was improving the more she focused. Doing so, she pulled back a step, like a tiger readying to pounce, both blades held up together in front of her, ready to strike.
She ran forward, in one fluid motion, slashing, and slashing, and slashing, the beast roaring with each blade making contact, as she spun them around her, almost effortlessly, momentum increasing. Whenever she was to duck out to the side, the way would be clear for Cecil to deal the finishing blow.

Date: 2011-04-30 04:05 pm (UTC)Cecil's call was not lost on her. She knew what that meant, though she was honestly surprised such a thing would work here on Gaia. But if so, maybe the others she knew would work, as well. For now, she had to hope this final blow would be enough to kill the beast.
