Landing with a thud on the feinds back she dug her spear head into its rough hide to get a better grip on the creature. Kneeling down she grabbed a handful of its feathers with her free hand so it woulding shake her so easily.
Though it was only a flash in the wild twistings of the Zuu, Shamari saw Rumple regain composure and head up to meet the battle. Growling as the beast suddenly twisted to throw her, she resolved to attack again, though she couldnt use her spear to do so.
"Fira."
She said to no one inparticular. At the end of her free hand the fire spell could see forming before it lept from her paw to the creatures back, scorching the feinds back and feathers as it roared at the attack.

the creature was wild and frenzied it snarled and shook as shamari caught its feathers alight and began to shoot at the ground with greater speed. rumple flew towards it unsure what she could do but would try all she could.
as the beady eyes of the creature met hers and its jaws opened rumple kept strong and lifting her legs high pushed down on the fiends upper saw as it lunged beneath her almost biting her and she grabbed a hold of its nostrils thumping it with a few quick attacks in the face which didn't seem to effect it that much only annoy it.
the zuu flew close to the ground and turned upside down trying to scrape them both of on the desert floor. rumple wrapped her arms around the fiends head holding on tight and keeping close enough to not hit the ground.

As the Zuu flew to the ground and turned over to get them off, Shamari was determined to hang on. But her size got int the way and she had to let go of the feind. Dislodging her spear she dropped to the ground and rolled away, missing being crushed by the creature. Pushing herself off the ground the Ronso looked up and scilently cursed the creautre as it moved away from her.
Getting up she qucikly took off at a run after the creature, giving herself some time to get the strenght for another Jump back. Twirling the spear she paused for a moment before jumping toward the creature, intent on getting her spear in it once again. Maybe somewhere closer to the spine.

As shamari fell off rumple took a large gulp realizing it was just her with it now and as a beady eye looked up at her from the corner of its eye it began to shake its long neck violently. rumple held on tightly as it twisted about.
she began to kick it to try to stop it from moving but it was relentless and she began to lose her grip her small moogle fingers just weren't strong enough. as she was tossed into the air the creature flung its neck up opening its gapping jaws wide as she fell towards them scrambling to try and stop her decent but her fall was to quick.
she closed her eyes ready for what was to come but after a few seconds felt nothing. opening them she could see her hands gripped on the creatures upper fangs and her feet holding down its lower jaw as she was wedged in its mouth. a sweat drop fell down the side of her face as she gritted her teeth looking down the thought of this fiend and smelling its fowl breathe.
she could feel herself being swing as it tried to dislodge her. what was she going to do now. she just hoped shamari was able to launch another attack this creature was strong and lethal. in a few more moments she would be lunch.
"aah shamari, i might need a little help"

Springing up she only breifly heard the moogles voice before it was wiped away by the wind. Landing on the feinds back she took a few steps toward its head to see Rumple lodged in its jaws. With a growl she took her spear in both hands and thrust it donw into the back of the feinds head, twisting it so the jaws would open and release the moogle. She hoped the blow would be fatal, but it was always hard to tell with these big creatures.

the moogle heard the echoing growl of a ronso then suddenly saw a spar smash through the creatures head and plunge just between her legs as she held there and barely miss her.
"whooaahh watch it there"
a splatter of blood came prom the damage and the creature gargled in pain roaring violently it had trouble balancing but this gave rumple time to escape as its jaws loosened and she was able to fly free before they snapped down.
it then turned its neck snapping rapidly at shamari its jagged teeth coming at all angel as it tried to shreds through her skin and clothes paying little attention to where it was going as the pain filled its anger and it wanted blood.

She hadnt had time to look at where her lance went, only that the moogle got free of the teeth of the creature. Once that was done she had to worry about keeping herself steady and killing off this feind before it harmed them. The first part would come later unfortunatly.
As the creature twisted to strike at her she managed to move enough to avoid it catching anything vital, but the feinds teeth snapped down around her arm, shooting pain up the side of the Ronso. Dislodging her weapon she knew better than to pull away from the feind, and instead cast thunder on the Zuu's beak so it would spazzum and let go.
Pulling her bloddied arm away she pushed back on the feinds head to move away from the dangerous part for a minute to look at the damage. Of course there was never a break before the feind attacked again. Dodging that she sprung at its head again and found a new place to embed her lance where it stuck through the head entierly.

the creature gave out an earth shattering roar and swung its head in all directions it tongue hanging out as it held its mouth open and it began to plummet towards the ground its wings slowly loosing movement as it spasmed and dropped at a great decent to the ground. rumple saw it all and rush at great speed towards shamari holding out her hand and hoping she had time to grab it as she passed by. she knew she couldnt hold her weight for long but at least she could try to get her to safety and stop her falling hard to the sandy ground with the huge body of the fiend.
it was like a huge rock coming down hard and the creatures limbs all flew around wildly.
"shamari, grab on!"

With the creatures wild thrashing it took her longer to get the lance head out of the creatures head than she would have liked. Finally getting it free she qucikly took it apart into its two halves and stuck it in it's back holster so she hand both hands free.
Watching the creature fall under her she braced herself for the smack of the ground, not sue exactly how this one would play out. But then she heard Rumple call and she looked up to see the moogle offer her hand. Taking the chance she lept lightly from the feinds back and grabbed onto the moogles extended hand. Though she quickly realized her weight might be too much for the moogle and let go.
Being nearer to the ground she didnt have such a fear of falling to her death, and relied on her Dragoon class on her Ronso breed to land safly on the ground as the feind crashed to earth. The beast kicked up dust as it landed and Shamari held a hand out to block the dust from her eyes. But once it was settled she looked around quickly before dropping into a sitting position to look at her wound. The red blood mixing with her blue fur made it harder for her to see the wound itself.

rumple slowly released shamari as she heard the creatures great fall and gently let her sit down on her own before dropping with a bounce onto the sandy floor and feeling a little dizzy.
the dust all settled and rumple looked over to see the huge carcass of the dead zuu lying on the sand. rumple had never seen a warrior take on such a huge beast shamari was sure skillfully. looking back the ronso woman seemed to no longer be concerned with the fiend now it was dealt with but more on the wounds she had sustained.
rumple was still trying to get over it, she hoped she was cut out for this fighting bis. she took a deep breath letting it all out and took a small moment to compose herself before woddling close to shamari.
"great job there. that beast didn't stand a chance. are you ok kupo?"

Shamari's intrest in the beast was over and doen with, it was dead and thats all she needed to know. Now she was focused on the bite marks the creature left, wiping away the blood from her arm with her other hand to get a look. Hearing the Moogle her ear flicked once before she looked over to her.
"Just a bite. Shamari should be fine."
She replied, searching her bag for the potion she had bought a while ago. Pulling it out she opened it up and took a drink from the bottle so her wound would slowly heal itself up. Of course that still left her with a blood soaked arm, but it could have been worse she supposed.
"Is Rumple alright?"
She asked after a moment of relaxing. She might have gotten bitten, but she still hadnt been stuck between the feinds jaws.

yeah ok, luckily i was to small for him to dig his teeth in to, but i might need a little rest. i have to admit you put up a great fight. im afraid battling sky creatures of that size isn't easy for me."
rumple looked at the wounds inflicted on shamari some looked quite painful and she searched a small bag she carried with her under her clothing.
"here let me see to that"
taking out a cantina of water she carefully poured some water on the wound and found some wrappings to wrap around the ronsos arm. she smiled up at her as she did then took a swig of the water herself and rubbed the sweat from her brow.
"i might need to rest my wings a bit. it still amazes me you could take on such a brute"
she stared over at it then back again.
"we should probably keep going before more things show up or we get caught up in the heat"

Hearing that Rumple was fine made Shamari feel better. At least she was the only one who had gotten hurt. Casting the empty potion bottle aside she took a look at the wound and thought to herself that a hi-potion would have healed it completely. There were still some puncture wounds, but for the most part it would be fine.
When Rumple asked to see her arm, Shamari looked over to her then held out the injured arm for her to have a look at. Thankfully she wrapped it up instead of stating the obvious like other people would have done, which got more annoying than fighting the feind. Taking back her arm she bowed her head in thanks to the moogle before getting up to stretch her limbs.
"Shamari has had practice. World is not safest place to be."
She replied concerning the Zuu. True she never fought anything that big before, but Rumple didnt need to know that.
"Are you able enough to walk?"
She asked after a moments rest. She didnt want to push the Moogle too hard to get her to walk, but she also knew the dangers of standing still. If it all boiled down to it, the Ronso would eventually ask if the moogle wanted a ride.

rumple nodded.
"sure just look after that wound."
she dabbed her forehead with a bit of water before standing up.
"don't worry ill try to keep up. the town cant be that far and i think that bird took us quite a distance"
a cheeky grin crossed her face and she set of ahead of her hoping she was going in the right direction. her feet still a bit wobbly but she was ok it was just her wings that needed a rest she was quite strong for a moogle. hopefully reaching the next town they could get a bite to eat.

Nodding the Ronso woman started off again, heading toward the capital of this contenant like the road signs when she first got here said there was. And according to her mental map they were headed in the right direction, so it couldnt be to far off.
After a bit of walking, Shamari took the cape she had around her shoulders and cast the edges of it over her head for shade. She knew that would happen, it was only obvious that fur and heat didnt mix well. Holding up the cloth cape she looked out over the horizon and spyed the speck that would be the next town they were shooting for. Now the issues was getting there.
