Room 515, Saturday Morning

[anarchist_queen]

The first thing Leda noticed was the absence of her new friend when she woke up. She didn't worry too much, figuring that it was one of those Fandom things. They appear, they bring some fun and excitement, and they go.

Today she decided she'd go for a ride. She could use the pick-me-up. But no sooner had she risen, she heard something under her bed.

"That you little hair braider?" she asked. When she peeked under, and saw in the shadows, two red, almost glowing eyes, her sleep and hangover dulled reflexes barely gave her time to think;

Oh this can't be good... before something dug it's claws into her shoulders, and dragged her screaming under the bed.

Blood trickled from the darkness and Leda's screams died. Well not so much died as stopped ominously. Then the thing started screaming, and Leda began swearing. There was thumping, and a crack. Then Leda emerged, a dead monster in one hand, blood seeping from her shoulders and one ear.

She tossed the thing into the garbage can and she headed for the bath room for her goldenrod healing salve. They were waiting for her there.

[Help!]

Momoko was on her way to the fifth floor common room, hoping for a better cereal selection, when she heard what sounded like screaming. And not a good kind of screaming. She hesitated when the noise died, frowning at the door to the room the sounds seemed to be coming from.

Even if she was laughed at, she decided, she needed to be sure. So Momoko knocked at the door rather loudly, "Hello? Is something going on in there?!"

Leda managed to get to her knife, and ran one of the things through with it before another leaped off the shower rod and sank it's teeth into her wrist. "Fuck!" Now one of the monsters had her knife.

Several tiny demonic voices answered Momoko with "No!"

[heromaniac]

Okay, those voices just made her worry more! She was totally convinced there was something wrong in there. She couldn't remember whose room it was, but she was fairly sure if she explained, they would forgive her rudeness if she was wrong.

"Sorry, but I'm coming in!" She tried the handle of the door, hoping it was unlocked and wondering if she'd be in trouble for breaking it down if it wasn't. "I'm really sorry to intrude!"

[anarchist-queen.livejournal.com]

It was unlocked. Leda was currently doing a one handed crab walk away from the green nasty with her knife. She managed to keep away from it as it slashed at her, but the others were getting tired of waiting.

[heromaniac]

Momoko pushed open the door and looked around, finally spotting the injured Leda. "Ah! Leda! What's..."

And then she saw the gremlins. "Hey, no! Drop that!" She reached out and grabbed something close (a book? Okay.) and rushed over to hit the knife wielding one on the head. Hard. Really, really hard. It flew back into the wall, causing the remaining creatures to giggle at it's misfortune. It was a totally creepy giggle.

"What is going on here?!" Momoko reached for Leda's arm to drag her closer.

[anarchist-queen.livejournal.com]

Careful of the injured wrist!

Leda winced and groaned as she pushed along with her legs. Any direction away from the monsters was good with her.

"Dunno, Flo. One of these things was under my bed. Got it, but the rest were waiting in the bath room."

And now looking in their direction.

"I really, really hate my foster parents right now."

[heromaniac]

"Whoa! These are from your parents? Did you flunk a class or something?"

One of the monsters took initiative and, with a tinny battle cry, launched forward and landed on Momoko's arm. She shrieked as it chomped down hard on her arm. She tried to pull it off, finally resorting to beating its head as another brave one headed for her ankles.

"OW! GET OFF! Leda, we have to get you out of here! OFF! LET GO! and to the clinic! You don't look so good!"

[anarchist-queen.livejournal.com]

"My parents didn't send them," Leda started, snatching up the charging creature by the ankles and bashing the one chewing on her friends arm with it. "Least I don't think so. But they took away my magic!"

She threw her weapon out the window. "Let's get out of here!" Her shoulders hadn't stopped bleeding, and her wrist was looking pretty nasty too.

you want to ping into the clinic post or shall I?

[heromaniac]

"That would totally come in handy right now, yes!" Momoko nodded, glad that Leda wasn't going to argue, and pulled her compact from her belt. "Hope you're not afraid of heights!"

She flipped open the compact and swiped her ring across the face, initiating her transformation. In a few milliseconds, Blossom was letting her yo-yo fly and strike the ground in front of a few more monsters who were trying to take advantage of any distractions. Hopefully Leda wouldn't get charged for the small dent in the floor.

She reached out a hand to Leda. "We should fly! It's faster, plus you don't look like you should be walking!"

[ooc: Go ahead and ping :) See you there!]

[anarchist-queen.livejournal.com]

Okay, that was really cool. "My hero." Leda managed to smirk.

[heromaniac]

"Totally and completely!" Blossom beamed at her. "Superheroine of Justice, Blossom, at your service, miss! Now, let's fly!"

She took a few seconds to try to figure out the best way to carry the other girl without adding to the injuries before flying both of them out the window and down into town.
