Liliath was confused , where there 2 tskia’s? She didn’t care much cause she decided to hate Tskia

But now she needed some help cause she could barely breath

"Ow, ow ow ow ow!" Broken glass is not fun for Raven's soft pads. Little shards stick in them and they sting like a million transulent wasp butts. But she climbs in anyways and follows the sound of arguing and screaming. She lets Tsi'ka and whoever the heck that girl is deal with the nasty while she looks for a sneaky way into the cellar.

Luckily for her, this house is dilapidated and there are plenty of crawlspaces that a small thing such as she can slip through. "I'm coming, Little!" None of these crawlspaces seem big enough to get the child through, but the least she could do is keep the girl company while the big ones handle the monster and the door. Of course, Raven doesn't dare go inside the cellar. "Little, over here!" She peers out from a crack in the wall. "We're going to get you out, just keep calm."

"I don't like it either. I don't know if it can half-shift, but anything that can copy that quickly usually can. Improbable more than impossible though, really. Only time I've dealt with a class 1 shifter was an actual demon, so I'm mostly working off of textbooks right now," she growled, hating to admit her lack of experience with any kind of freaky monster.

“I can’t swim Raven.” She cried , but she tried to walk/swim to Raven “She tried to kill me.” She cried “She really did , I am not lying , she really tried to.” She struggled to breath “To kill me.” If she wouldn’t stop upsetting her self , she propably would start hyperventilating.

“Wher is Lisa?”

And she lunges. No, she cannot use her lash here, at least not easily, but she knows that it seeks vulnerability. There is to be no time for that. She brings all four of her upper limbs forward, reaching with four sets of wickedly sharp claws, calling out, "AND THHUSS YOU DIE, ABOMINATION!"

Liliath looked angry now “She is first trying to kill me and now she is trying to kill someone else!”

She hit the water with her hands aggressively “I hate her!”

Raven doesn't know who Liliath means by "she." Could be Tsi'ka. Could be Lisa. Could be the girl sees the nasty for what "she" is.

Could be me.

Nah, you're not trying to kill anyone.

She's here to keep the child calm and look for a way out. Quickly. Lil isn't in danger of drowning just yet, but the water is rapidly approaching her chest and the flow is getting faster.

"I'm staying in the wall and looking for a way to sneak you out. In the meantime, stay quiet and relax. You're not going to drown."

She combines some of her own optimism with Lisa's situational level-headedness. When there's someone else to protect, she usually seems to know what to do. A running joke in Raven's head is that the fastest way to knock sense into her is to say that someone is bleeding.

Raven's not exactly the same way. Calm? Yes, but she has no idea what to do. She starts searching the space for a passage way that can carry a small child, but has no idea what to do to get Lil to it if she finds one.

The four arms form something of a cage, preventing Vincent's proper escape, so it lets itself get skewered. Yes, it hurts, but it manages to adjust its body so the strike isn't lethal.

Stuck on the claws of Tsi'ka's lower left hand, it's body shifts again, NotLiliath returns, and, what with the claws in her gut and the sudden return of tear ducts, finds it easy to cry.

"W...why...?"

“I am going to drown!” She panicked . “I can’t swim!” “Open this stupid door!” She screamed.


Liliath felt that the water already came at her neck “Raven!” She cried “The idiot who locked me in open the doooor!”

"Do not at-tempt to fool me, creat-ture. I may not have thhe nosse of a Kitssune, but my ant-tenae sensse your decciet all the ssame," she hissed, bending the claws into the creature's body, and letting the stored chemicals flow out into the beast's body. Soon, if all worked as planned, its muscles would seize, locking in place, and it would go numb and to sleep, ready to be torn apart. She rattled gleefully, and spits, "And because the Hive has reached victory once again."

Seo stormed inside “Are you guys dumb , there is a child down there screaming for help!”

“Open this door now!”

Raven huddles in a crawlspace between the basement and the whatever catastrope is happening outside. This spot is big enough for Liliath. But it. Doesn't. Go. Into. The damn. Basement. "I wish I could, but I don't have hands!" She scrambles to a spot where she can see the door. Does it open in or out? Either way, Liliath needs to stop panicking, get away from it and out of the water. There some shelving on the far side of the room.

"Little, get on the shelves here!" She manages to fenagle her way to the shelf. They're solid, wooden, and mostly bare. Depending on how often the room floods, they might be rotting near the bottom, but risking a broken shelf is better then letting Liliath drown. "You can climb, right?" The water laps one and a half shelf-spaces down and there's enough room on the top for Liliath to lay out of the waters way. That is, until the room fills completely.

“Yes I can.” She slowly climbed on the shelf “I am sorry.” She cried “I shouldn’t have believed her.” She cried louder

-

Seo looked angry “Fine if you guys don’t do anything.” She opend the door “Come you can go out now .”

The child looked up to her “Raven come.” The child jumped back in the water and halfswimmed to the opening . The girl climbed out “Sorry.” She cried , the girl started hugging her “It’s fine now ok?” She said to the girl

Vincent's tear-streaked face goes flat. "Have you, now?" Its puny child hands are groping desperately at Tsi-ka's arm. It imagines that stronger hands could crush it like the fragile body of a grasshopper. But the hands of this pink, fleshy child are useless.

It feels the creature's claws pumping venom into its body. Does that work on it? It can't remember. Oh, well. Its puny child hands start to contort. To bloat, to grow in mass and in muscle. The fingers sprout claws and the skin grows thick and leathery, then covered in small, bronze scales. Its arms grow the same way to have muscles that support the pushing and pulling and crushing it has to do to get the claws out of its stomach and destroy. It has slain bigger beasts before; this one was named Zekrul, it thinks, and his body lies somewhere in the bottom of a pit.

“Stop fighting guys , there is a child down there!” She could hear the girl still screaming and talking to someone .

She tried to push the weird creatures away “Idiots.” She shouted well she tried to kick against the basement door

She new it would change shape. To something of this size and resiliance? No, that was unexpected, but also irrelevant. It was not as though she could retreat anyhow. All she did was clamp her jaw shut, and shove as many more claws into what soft flesh remained as possible, doing her best to bowl it over in the narrow hallway to bring more of her legs to bear. If she could get a grip on any organs, she would do her damnedest to rip them out.

“Can someone help me to open this door!” She shouted . She kicked again , the wood was clearly old!

“So you guys don’t care that a child is propably dying down there?” She kicked again. And she felt down in the water , the whole room was filled with water she looked around the child was one an old shelf but the child was also underwater.

"It's okay, we'll get out. We won't drown." This becomes Raven's mantra as the water rises to meet them. She repeats that but as water laps around her paws, she can't believe it. It's not okay. We won't get out. We will drown. Most of the crawlspaces she'd used to get in are underwater and probably flooding. Now she's as trapped as Liliath.

"Little!" She cries as the child's head disappeared under the dark water.

Then the crack of splintering wood, a light. The growling and hissing and cackling became clearer, but not as clear as the admonition of the new girl, Seo, as she broke down the door.

"Thank goodness! Save the girl!" Raven can swim, and now with a clear exit in sight, she had little problem diving into the water to reach safety.

“Yeah I am trying!” She screamed underwater , she noticed the girl weakly laying on the ground . Seo swimmed faster to her and tried to grab her . She tried to swim with the girl to the stairs . The girl seemed not to breath oh lord!

She pushed the girl out the basement and then climbed out herself “She is not breathing.”

(She is not dead)

Vincent is ready to bring down the house and kill everyone inside, especially this insolent insect that keeps trying to stick its filthy claws in its gut. It manages to cover most of its growing body in the dragon's thick hide, although all except the tough belly scales are still stabbable.

It feels the tearing of flesh as Tsi-ka fishes for vital organs. It knows that most of those are safe, but HELL does the tearing hurt. In pain and enraged, it forms a large, reptilian dragon head, with powerful jaws and sharp teeth made for crushing bone. it lunges at her, aiming to crush her brains into mush. Further losing itself to the role of a giant beast, it grows a muscular tail that bats back and forth with reckless abandon. In such close quarters, it slams against walls and broken furniture. People too, if the small creatures aren't careful.
