The Purrfect Pet Store

Ow!

The Lady falls over, clutching her head with her hands

Okay that's it! You all die!

The Lady raises her hand and freezes the litter as it falls from the bag explosion

The Lady flicks her wrist and the frozen litter flies at Crowbar

The Lady raises her other arm and starts to freeze Vriska's head

ah shit

*Without hesitating, Eridan readjusts his aim, now pointing at the arm targeting Vriska, and pulls the trigger*

*Crowbar makes a combat roll out of the door and dashes towards Itchy*

*He swings his crowbar against the ice oround Itchys feet*

fuck1ng f1nally!

((not sure if freeing complete... or in progress...))

--

*Aradia telekinetically flings the litter right back at Fortuona*

((Depends onhow thick the ice is but lets just assume you're free now))

*After the ice around Itchys feet is shattered, Crowbar wastes no time and runs towards Vriska to pull her free*

The Lady yanks her hand back, cursing

In an instant, the entire shop, floors, roof, and ceiling, freeze to a very slippery ice

The Lady flicks her wrists and ice swords appear in her hands

She whistles, and an ice hound appears from the ground

*die tumbles backwards into a frozen crate, hitting his head and dazing himself*

--------


*the shadows rise in nepeta's line of sight, as if asking a question*

Damn i7!

*Crowbar can't get himself to stop on the slippery ground*

*He decided to let himself fall on his back and slide against the pile in which Vriska is stuck*

*As soon as he hits he starts shoveling snow aside, to free Vriska*

*looks around worridly*

*whispers*

:33 < what do you want ygg?

*the shadows pause for a second in disbelief, and point to fortuna in a way that is obviously asking if nepeta wants ygg to intervene*

As soon as Vriska's arm is free, she rolls her dice, and they clatter onto the floor.

8 5 2 2 6 6 7 3

A deep blue cutlass materializes in midair, and she barely catches it. Weapon in hand, she begins to dig at the snow pile with Crowbar.

((Where on Vriska's head has the ice started to appear?))

:33 < are you crazy? she is just some crazy ice witch! we have fought much worse before

:33 < whats the worst that she-

-----------------------------------------------------

The Lady flexes her fingers and smiles, becoming accustomed to her power. She smiles evilly

You missed your chance

She laughs and ice spikes shoot from the ground in all directions

((Your left eye, BB))

*Aradia deflects the nearest spikes*

--

*Itchy dodges and attempts to attack Fortuona, but slips on the ice and ends up sliding uncontrollably into her*

*large spires of shadow shoot up and shatter the ice dogs, small flickers of shadow shatter the ice shards and several spears of shadow lance towards fortuna from all directions*

------------------

*die shakes himself together in time to see the shadows strike*

One of the spikes shoots up through the snow pile, dangerously close to Vriska, but giving her room to wriggle out of it. She claws at the ice over her left eye to dislodge it.

((The FLARP debacle is a thing that happened right, my memory is shit))

The Lady snorts with slight surprise and summons an encircling ice wall

From behind the ice wall, the Lady begins directing the battle like an orchestra

Ice flies from all direction at rapid speed, ice dogs spring up from all around, and it begins to blizzard inside

--------------------------------------

*shouts*

:33 < we have to get out of here! we will be frozen solid!

*the shadows flex and all the ice shatters to snow and shadow fires blaze and melt the remainder without harming anyone*

Now now now child i think that is quite enough of toying around with snow flurries and puppy dogs

*the shadows become black trees and out from them yggdrassil walks in her full, barken glory*

((havoc ygg had to drain a little power from you using your contract in order to make this dramatic entrance, since youve only made a small deal it will only make you ever so slightly woozy, but easily shaken out of))

The Lady snorts with derision

Of course it's you. I should have figured. Someone trying to amass vassals is always up to something.

The Lady twitches her pinky finger and her swords turn into machine guns

((Okie dokie! Does she have to drain more power from Nep to fight, or is she going on her own power now?))

--------------------------

*collapses to the floor, very tired*

Vriska stares at the new arrival. And the guns.

WH8T THE F8CK????????

The Lady sighs and shoots Vriska in the leg

Quiet please. The adults are talking

((woah havoc not that much, like i said she only has a tiny fraction of your soul, its sort of like, vision goes slightly blurry, shake head, and  better, i mean if you want you can make her be weaker than i thought and thus need to fall, sorry if i made it like i took loads from her

and no no need for anymore, she just wanted some real flare and it took a little too much to do all at once))

*yggdrassil laughs*

oh my child do you really expect to hurt me with those little things? and so crass! i mean really, so loud and boistrous, where is your sense of civility? all i was doing was protecting what is mine

*yggdrassil is unfazed by the gunshot* ((just incase it needed to be said xP))

Vriska whimpers, barely keeping herself from screaming in pain, and sits down hard, holding her leg.

I was simply testing their abilities. Obviously they have none, because all they did was make fools of themselves

Who might you be? Another hero?

The Lady sneers at the word hero

*Crowbar dodges the spikes*

*He notices Nepeta fainting and the shadow Lady*

*Crowbar produces a number of curses that could make a sailor blush and slides over to Nepeta*

*yggdrassil chuckles*

oh no child i am nothing like a hero, i am the one the heroes face at the end of their journey

*she says with a smirk*
