Or maybe a force of nature known as Jana Soveka had made sure people could get in and out safely, because it was a fucking mess. There were people coming out bloody and half conscious, jesus. Nothing pissed Jana off more than stupid shit like this, but she had her own share of scrapes...in fact, she was staring right at one. Lili Masenbach, grinning like a pleased little kitten as Jana moved up with her swords drawn.
"Ooh...if it isn't the Ice Queen's rabid dog..." Lili purred, hand running casually over her tattered breast. "Want a treat, doggy?"
"Suck my dick, you psycho." Jana muttered, flames rippling across her blades. "When I'm done with you, you're going to wish you stayed in your little crazy pen."

Nicholas and Damien had been circling each other for a good half an hour, their blows met in a flurry of attacks before stopping yet again. Kishi was probably already dead, it didn't matter anymore. What mattered was Nicholas thinking he was getting his way about it.
"The law states that whoever removes the leader of the DC in power becomes the new one, Damien," Nicholas grinned widely. "Don't you see!? This is the start of everything-"
"This?" Damien muttered, arm spread out around them. "This is your vision? To injure hundreds of innocent students while-"
"They were not innocent!" Nicholas growled, eyes flashing as he went for another stream of thrusts and slashes that Damien parried and deflected with a grimace. "They are part of the problem! An ever feeding chain into a bloated system! I have brought you freedom! You of all people, Damien...should know what this means."
"It means you're a lunatic, Nicholas," Damien sighed. "Now put the damn weapon down, before I make you put it down."
"Not happening," Nicholas said, eyes narrowed. "My right is so close, I will not let ignorant fools like you stop me!" Damien was always too nice, he thought. He never actually put effort into anything, and yet he still excelled at everything. Even now, Nicholas could tell he was holding back. Why? Did he think that he could change his mind? There was no stopping what had happened now...he was leader, all he needed to do was cut away the people bold enough to argue.
