[X] All out assault, immediately. Try to take down as many people as soon as possible. Fight them all. Win. It's not like it'd be too hard.
The girl in black took another step forward, and Yang leaned down, firing Ember Celica downwards to propel herself forward.
The girl slashed upwards as she reacted to the movement, and just before Yang made contact with the blade, she fired Ember Celica again, shooting herself backwards again while trying to hit the girl with the red sword. She disappeared in blur of a black shadow, which Yang didn't get a good look at before it dispersed from the shot, and she briefly saw the girl standing near the shopkeeper step away from the projectile before Yang saw the girl with the red sword flash in front of her again.
The blade clashed against Yang's Aura, slicing through it and doing shocking damage to it, and Yang decided immediately she wasn't going to risk getting hit too many more times.
Yang grabbed her opponent's blade as she fell back, noticing as she did so that the girl seemed inexperienced. She stumbled forward as she tried to keep her grip, betraying a lack of familiarity, and as Yang landed on her feet, she managed to keep in range.
Stepping closer to her foe while pulling at the sword, Yang grabbed the black haired girl on the face, and flared her Aura. Flames burst from her, and the cat Faunus cried out as she let go of the sword and coiled back.
Yang smirked, as she threw the sword to the side. "Not too fond of-"
The Faunus tackled Yang, knocking her into a wall covered in weapons, which collapsed down on the two of them. Yang reached out to grab her and keep grappling, but her hand wrapped around and crushed a shadow, and the girl stepped away as Yang stood.
"Tiliqua!" The girl called, turning her head to the back of the room. Yang followed it, to the two girls taking dust crystals. "Give me a hand!"
One of the girls plucked a handful of black and purple crystals from a wall, and threw them at Yang. She raised her hand to bat them away, but the crystals detonated on impact, forming a gravitational pull around her. Yang's arm slammed her into the ground, back into the pile of weapons that cut into her Aura, and she struggled against it for a moment.
The girl in black went back for her sword, and Yang raised her other arm to fire Ember Celica. It landed at the sword, forcing the girl to jump away as the sword was blasted, crashing through the window and going into the distance.
A shadow blocked Yang's view for a moment, and she turned up to see the girl who had answered to Tiliqua looking down at her. An elongated blue tongue left her mouth for a moment, as Tiliqua blew a raspberry before gesturing downwards. The force pulling Yang's arm down intensified, more and more, causing her to cry out as she felt the concrete on the floor rippling from the pressure.
"I can do this all day." Tiliqua claims. "So hey, why don't we call this off, I take those pretty gauntlets of yours, and-"
Yang shot her in the face, and Tiliqua stumbled back, before firing the other gauntlet of Ember Celica. The force was just enough to jerk her out of the gravitational field, and as Yang rolled on the ground from the angle, she quickly got to her feet.
"Is that all you have?" Yang asked, as she quickly looked around. The last girl at the back of the room had stopped collecting dust, and was just watching. Meanwhile, the cat Faunus had claimed another, random weapon from the shop. The girl holding a gun to the shopkeepers head still hadn't done anything, though she seemed agitated.
"First time I get to try that with gravity dust in a year and she just-"
Yang shot Ember Celica backwards again, getting within range in a heartbeat, before grabbing Tiliqua's head and slamming it down into Yang's knee. Ember Celica fired again as Yang pushed her down, and the lizard Faunus cried out.
An arm wrapped around Yang's neck and tightened, trying to cut off her oxygen supply. Yang jumped back and slammed her holder into the ground under her weight, burning up her Aura more in the process.
There was a sudden flash, and Yang felt her face thrown into the wall.
Was this the Faunus girl's Semblance?
Yang reached back and fired Ember Celica, ignoring the damage done to her own Aura by the point blank detonation, and when she felt the arm around her neck loosen, Yang forced her way free.
Turning around as soon as she did so, Yang swung a fist and struck the cat Faunus in the face. The Grimm mask flew off her face, and as Yang struck again, she found herself hitting the black clad girl's dark shadow. An arm caught at Yang's elbow, and in a sudden show of force, Yang was thrown out the window.
The glass around her shattered, driving into her Aura, and Yang hit the ground a moment later. Stumbling to her feet, Yang prepared herself for another attack, but noted how it never came.
She looked around, and saw Ren standing at her side.
"So, how did it go?" He asked.
Yang looked up to the window, and saw the cat girl looking back at her, with a random gun ready for the instant she saw Yang move.
Well, no need to disappoint, then?
She ran again, ignoring the bullets that struck her in the face, as she approached, jumped up in preparation to jab the black haired Faunus in the face. The Faunus got ready to parry the fist, and Yang fired Ember Celica.
The explosion forced the terrorist back, and Yang pushed onwards, landing inside the window and going full attack.
"Enough of this!" One of the girls declared. "I have the dust. Let's go, Blake."
The girl with black hair caught Yang's fist and then was suddenly behind her, throwing off Yang's momentum by pulling the arm behind her, and looked at the girl who had spoken.
"While we have a chaser?" The girl in black asked. "Great plan."
Yang jerked her arm free from the girl, who was apparently Blake, and pun around to hit her again. Blake disappeared into a dark shadow and appeared to Yang's side again, grabbing her hair and pulling her off balance.
Yang snarled, and burst into flames again. The black haired girl let go off Yang again, but slammed down the gun she was holding, hitting Yang in the side of the head to force her down.
The girl in yellow bounced, putting her hands down to be able to spin upwards again and land on her feet.
Damn it, she wasn't doing good enough. This was one person, one that looked roughly her own age at that. Even if it looked like she'd been through something rough with those burns of hers, if she couldn't beat this, how could she be supposed to defeat anything that was a threat?
"Enough of this." Said the girl in black. "We've been here long enough. The proper authorities should be on the wa-"
Yang closed her eyes to concentrate, before letting out a shout as her Aura flared outwards explosively, and the girl in black stepped back in surprise. Yang stepped herself in the stomach as she rose, bringing her Aura down, before setting off in a charge with increased speed. The girl in black left a shadow behind as she appeared at the side, and Yang shot it to stop her forward momentum that way, barging into her target a moment later.
That Semblance was a pain, but there had to be a limit to it. As the girl disappeared for a second time, Yang fired Ember Celica downwards, throwing herself upwards as the girl reappeared to the side. Pointing it at her target, Yang made a motion to fire, and turned on the safety on her gun at the last second.
Given that the safety was inside the gauntlet, there was no outward sign that the weapon had been tampered with. For all her target knew, Yang was out of ammo. Which was perfect. Because as Yang hit the ground and flipped the safety off again, it meant she wouldn't be expecting Yang to be able to fire again.
The girl with black hair pulled a blade off a wall, and dashed in close to Yang again. Yang caught the arm holding the small blade, more of a dagger than anything, and let them struggle for a moment.
"I'll buy time." Blake ordered. "Get the dust-"
Yang fired, and the explosion hit Blake straight in the jaw. Her Aura strained, but held, and Yang learned from her mistake immediately by keeping up the pressure.
There had to be a limit on the shadow running trick. Maybe it was tiring, or had a limit on how many times it could be used without a cooldown, but it definitely wasn't an automatic thing. Meaning if Yang just kept up the pressure-
She stopped thinking so hard as she noticed Blake twitch, and followed throw with another punch meant to keep her off balance.
The instant Blake regained her footing, she'd be out of reach and ready to dodge all over again. Yang had her off balance, now she just had to focus on keeping it that way.
Her knee came up to knock Blake off her feet, knocking her off balance again, before Yang caught the cat Faunus' arm and slammed her into the ground again.
There was a light to the side, and suddenly a gale force wind flew through the shop. Yang looked over to see the girl with the blue tongue raising her hand, as fragments of a wind dust crystal hovered in front of her. The wind focused, slamming Yang into the wall of the shop.
"You take the crystals!" Another voice called. "You're the faster one, you'll actually get away in time."
Yang heard a faint siren in the distance, as she stood, only to be pinned to the wall by the girl who had been, up to that point, holding the shopkeeper hostage.
"You stay here." The girl said. "That was pretty impressive stuff, but if you move, I-"
There was a thud, and the girl collapses as the old man dropped a familiar looking hammer on her head. As she fell, the old man wiped some sweat from his brow, and Yang looked towards the door to see Blake run out it.
Swearing, she jumped out to pursue, only for the two other girls to step forth.
One of them, the one who Yang didn't recognised, looked at the old man and hissed. The skin around her neck expanded, forming a frill around her head that was probably meant to be intimidating, but honestly just looked kinda silly. Weird, but silly.
Yang closed a fist, as she heard commotion from outside.
Tiliqua stepped forward, pulling a sling out of her pocket, before striking out with it to form it into a whip. The whip struck out at Yang, who caught it, and quickly found it trying to snake around her wrist and form a lasso.
Undeterred, Yang pulled, firing at the same time to increase the force behind the pull, and Tiliqua was pulled forward, allowing Yang to slam her into the wall. The girl with the frill around her neck pulled out her weapon, a sickle on a chain, and swung it around for a moment. Yang braced for impact when the girl threw it at her, but then the chain grew tight and lurched to the side.
Blinking, Yang watched her run out the door, and leaped out the window to stop her.
The sickle caught around Nora, still holding down the boy with the lion's mane, and pulled her to the side. The boy got to his feet.
"Anything I should know?" Asked the girl with the features of a frill-necked lizard.
"Boss lady has a chaser." He replied. "Kid in green spotted her when she went for the sword, waited until she turned a corner so she wouldn't know she was being pursued. Probably knows by now."
The sirens got louder, as Yang stared off against the two. Her eyes flickered to inside the shop, where she noticed the shop keeper sneaking into a safe room in the back.
...It'd be easy to fight these two, maybe even take them down. But then the police would be here and she'd need to answer a few of their questions before she got to chase down the cat girl. And it meant hoping that Ren didn't get into a fight and kept the trail.
On the other hand, the shopkeeper was safe now, and Blake did have everything the White Fang were trying to take. She could go after them, give Ren a hand. But that meant leaving these two here, giving them time to get their allies out. Four might want to talk to them.
Nora? She was good and all, but she also had no weapon on her. They couldn't just split up and hope for the best.
After a moment, Yang-
[X] Pursued Blake and the Dust Crystals.
[X] Stayed to fight those left behind.
