Radium's will finish the fight thing.
No hippie smilies?!?


Acid noted that some of the Kiyrenin were taking aim at KRSplat and Crystal. Obviously a distraction was needed. He fired his rocket launcher at the sky without aiming. Every head turned. At the same time, a furious yelp rang out. Acid glanced up and winced.
"Sorry, Kaz," he called. A few crispy red feathers floated down.
"'S all right," Kaz's agonized voice replied. "A few months and my tail should be all grown back."
"Good. I really wasn't aiming for you!"
"You weren't aiming, period. That's the problem!"
Acid hoped that KRSplat and Crystal were taking the time to move and take up different positions. A flicker of blue said that he had guessed right.
"Y'all can go back to fighting now," he told them, and they obliged.
A flash of red and gold caught his eye. He turned just in time to see the owner of the red and gold fur fire two rockets in quick succession at him. He threw himself to the side, rolling to his feet with his own launcher ready as the rockets exploded against the far wall. The red-gold rabbit was crouched at the mouth of the alley, and ducked under cover when he saw Acid come to his feet and aim at him. Acid had one good look before he was gone.
His attacker was slender and long-legged, with red fur broken by distinctive golden markings down his arms and back. He didn't seem to have any other weapon than his launcher, which was a bonus in Acid's favor because Acid had a blaster. But he was quick and agile, with the lean muscular grace of an athlete. Acid wondered idly what his ability was.
My ability is to find cover. Fast.
However, there was no cover nearby. He shrugged and kept his sights trained on the site where the rocket-rabbit was hidden.
The red rabbit dove towards him in the next instant, firing three more rockets. Acid sidestepped and returned fire, causing the rabbit to roll out of the way and send another rocket at him. Acid growled, fired two more rockets and, pulling out his blaster, shot the rabbit. Just before his shot hit, the rabbit shimmered out of existance. Acid hoped he didn't have enough energy to return.

Defalcon found himself facing one of the dark warriors, who had come out of the tunnel directly above him. His twin swords were hard at work keeping his skin intact - he needed both of them against this one warrior's longsword and dagger.
He swept Nightfire down, knocking the dagger away, and Nightwind flashed up to intercept the longsword. He brought Nightwind around and activated it so that the blade glowed with blue flame, and it flicked past his opponent's guard and slashed his shoulder. But Defalcon could see that the wound was barely a scratch, and he was tiring fast.
Then a loud explosion and the screech of metal against metal cut across the sound of blade on blade, and the dark warrior - a squirrel, he noticed dimly - was distracted enough. Defalcon knocked his longsword out of his hand with Nightfire, and slew him with one thrust of Nightwind.
Then he turned to see what the commotion was about.


Yay, got two in at once.
