28 - Collaboration

"Oi, ET."

Fighter turned her head the best she could in her position. Blood ran into her eye from the cut just under her tiara, making her squint at the figure lying next to her. Her skirt was torn and the bow on her chest was no more than a few loose shreds of yellow. A wound on her arm seemed tinged with purple, evidence of the poison that the creatures secreted and she was pretty sure ankles weren't suppose to bend the way hers were. Blonde bangs covered the girl's eyes, but Fighter could tell Uranus had her signature sided smile on her face.

"Shall we finish this up?" Uranus called, slowly picking herself up. Her breath left her in a hiss as she put weight on her ankle. "I've got a date tonight," she admitted.

Fighter chuckled, sitting up as well. The gash in her side tore a little wider, her dislocated shoulder screaming from the simple effort. She could sense the monsters circling, watching, waiting for them. Bones cracking, tendons stretching, she made it to her feet, giving her body an experimental shake. Satisfied, midnight blue eyes turned to smirk at Uranus.

"Wouldn't want to keep Michiru waiting," she agreed.
