Welcome to Gaia! ::

(this is where you post for the main area of Dry Desert, if you need a smaller or more specific area, post in that topic)

"Alright, we've got a lot of ground to cover, but the radar should help with that..." Zelly said looking down at her control panel.

"Crap! Come on, eject, eject!!" Zelly said pounding on the eject button and making an escape before the N-Wing crashed. "Great, now i get to search the old fashioned way..." she said with a sigh as she floated to the ground.

((aaaaand i dont really want to deal with Zack so im just gonna say he lost track of Zelly....or just didnt want to save Zelly's lurv interest.))

Zelly shifted to her fox form and began sniffing for the familiar scent of Lucifer/ Nerd.

"Oh crap..." Zelly could see the hoard of wireframes in the distance and stopped. there was a good chance that Lucifer was in that direction, but there was also a good chance she wouldnt come out from a battle like that without someone reviving her trophy.

'You look like you may need some help with this one...' a familiar voice sounded and a small fireball that was pure white, except for the tip that was orange as the sun, appeared next to Zelly. 'I suppose now's as good a time as any to start repaying my debt.' it continued as nine smaller fireballs appeared behind it, the whole thing turning into a white fox with nine sun-orange tails.

"Inari..." Zelly whispered surprised.

'You wont make it through that army any faster by just standing there. The only option is to charge head on and take them out as fast as possible before your friend is stuck being possessed for good.' Inari said calmly as it looked ahead at the oncoming enemies.

Zelly just remained staring at the fox in surprise before shaking it off, nodding before running ahead to meet the wireframes in the fray, Inari following behind.

Inari dashed ahead, a slender sword of the same orange appeared floating above its back like there was an invisible sheath holding it as it began to swing around at the wireframes. 'Focus Zelly...Judging from your nervousness about all this, i take it you havent mastered all the powers i granted you...' it said as it jumped out of the way of an attack and countering with its blade.

"I guess so, yeah..." Zelly said dodging attacks left and right before creating the chakram she always used and fighting in a similar way to Inari as they slowly but surely fought off the attackers.

'They're resilient, i'll give them that...' Inari said fending off another group.

"Yeah, too bad more just keep showing up to take their place! I think we should stop dealing with these guys and take out the source, or we'll be here forever!" Zelly said winding up back to back with Inari, who nodded in agreement before they both made a leap over the heads of numerous wireframes, dodging attacks as the silouhette of Lucifer began to come into sight.

'Just ignore them and keep running, they'll only slow us down!' Inari said as they dodged attacks and made a straight run through the pack.

((come on, we all know we're eager for the climactic battle... >D ))
