Virginia looked over her shoulder. "What was that?" She heard a loud noise, but saw nothing much. She just knew it came from behind her and it sounded like an explosion. Jet?
She did not have much time to wonder on that thought. Soon after she heard such noise she heard a second noise. To her left she saw with the aid of the medium that the rope loosened. She did not want to find out what was left, and so she darted for the end of the bridge—which she was unawares of how far was from her. As she ran for the end she could feel herself become lower and lower. She saw rock. She saw the end. And so, she jumped for the mountain and in a roll came to a halt atop a mountain cliff.
She took in a deep breath of relief followed by an exhale of worry. Jet was still on the other side. She wondered on his current status. Did he fall with the bridge? Did he remain on the other side? Where was he? Did that guy kill him? Was she all alone now? That question worried her more.
After brief moments of sobbing she stood tall. She would not just sit here and wait to see if Jet was okay. She had a job to do, and she could not let Jet hold her from it. He told her to go ahead. She had to obey his wishes—because they may have been his final ones.
She found the pass and made her way up the inclined plane as easily she could. A determined scowl on her face. A fire in her eyes. There was still so much she did not understand about all of this. She wanted to find the truth. Though, she would not just yet.
"Hello there." Virginia looked up the hill only to get kicked in the face and roll down the same hill. Luckily she came to a stop on the cliff. The attacker landing from a jump right behind her as she moved to sit upward.
"Who are you?" She wondered.
Arriving in the light the medium created was a woman with short skirt and long blouse. All of which being black. A smile on her lips. Her hair to the arc in her back all in the same color of her dress. "What does that matter? You have somewhere to be."
"Where is that?"
"In the land of death along with so many of my kin." A short blade was drawn from one of her sleeves. "Are you prepared for the journey?" The woman wondered.
Virginia was ready to back away from her protagonist, but she instead moved forward while standing and snatched up her ARMs. In defense the woman swung at Virginia only to get air. Had Virginia kept her hair in braids like she used to it would had cleaved her hair off. As Virginia moved aside she fired out on the girl knocking the woman back onto her butt. "You should ask yourself that question." Virginia said in all seriousness and a tone and face that went with it.
"You, won't kill me girl!" The woman spat. "You don't know who you're up against." She said as she stood.
"Well, I did ask your name."
"Right. I should give it now then. I am May. May of the Moon."
Virginia gave her a blank stare. "And...why would I be afraid of that. I never heard of you."
May nearly collapsed at that. Instead she scowled. "I will make sure you won't forget my name then!" With that she closed the distance between Virginia and she. Multiple swipes of her blade resulted in nothing more than her previous attacks. Virginia was just dodging every one. As May went for another attack it was blocked by Virginia's ARMs and then Virginia countered with a headbutt causing each to stumble back and away from the other.
It was here that Virginia fired her ARMs, but the shots were deflected by May's blade before the woman stormed forward with the equal power of a small hurricane. Virginia countered such by remaining calm until the final moment in which May went to attack. In this moment Virginia jumped over the attack that came horizontally and she fired back into May causing the woman to fall to her knees.
"Devastate!" Virginia roared and the non-elemental attack went on to do as it's name suggests and bring May to the dirt and rock in a bloody mess.
Virginia stood a few minutes with wary breath. After seeing that May would not be standing up her breath returned to normal. Only in time for her to throw up all over May. She was a little weak stomached when it came to seeing just mounds of disgusting mutilated forms. She was not sure what part of May was what now. That was how mortifying it was to her.
She did not have time for this though. Jet was somewhere possibly dead and she was just standing around like an idiot. She had to get to Shadow of the Sun.
