The monsters continued to fight over the remains of their fellow chimera slain, not hearing the pair of angels outside. The monstrous sounds echoed through the empty house, and the sounds of their struggle - crashes and thuds and thumps - were easily discerned. If the boy managed to make flight, however, those wings were large enough to make a sound more prominent than a bird. It would cause the fighting inside to stop as they creatures listened in to try and make out what and where the potential prey was - casting the house in a very eerie silence.

He moved too suddenly, and Naenia wasn't anticipating his sudden flight. She tried to reach out and grab Aechon as he flew past her and up into the open window, but she missed, and the angel hissed a warning sound, just before the noise of the beasts moving around inside ceased. She immediately materialized her dress back into armor and flew up to land on the windowsill, then slid into the room. Magic built in her hands as that layer of crystalline armor formed across her body, and she pressed her hands to the wall to one side of the door into the hall. That hard, holy-powered crystal began to spread slowly across the wall as she cast a look over her shoulder at Aechon and spoke softly.
"Whatever you are seeking, find it quickly. I cannot hold them both off at once. Once you find it, flee. Fly back to the temple. I will follow if I can." Her jaw clenched and her expression firmed as she watched the defensive barrier slowly creeping across the wall. This was very bad. She might not make it out of this alive. If that happened... Well, Jayce would just have to care for Aechon by himself.

When he managed to clamber in his bedroom window he was already searching around the quaint little space, feeling his heart thunder in his chest. It was more so when Miss Nae entered after him and gave him warning to leave. Now he was starting to panic. But he ran over to his bed and grabbed the thick blanket, a quilt his mother had made, and yanked it free of the mattress to sprawl it on the floor. The fluffy pillow was next, tossed into the center of the blanket.
To anyone else, it was probably a stupid thing to do. But he needed these things... he was scared to lose everything he had, now that his parents were gone. He scrambled around the room, snatching up a few precious books and journals, a necklace of seashells, a pendant with a gold-dipped leaf, and his beloved stuffed tiger. They were dropped in the awaiting blanket, and the edges were gathered up to make a sack that the boy carried before him. Now it was a matter of getting out the window - with Naenia. He didn't want to leave her behind.

The beasts began to search the remains of the home, one heading downstairs and one remaining upstairs. That one higher up began to sniff about the hall, coming near the only closed door on this floor. The lion's head dipped almost near the floor, sniffing the narrow opening along the bottom of the door. It let out a threatening snarl, lifting its menacing gaze to the door. The goat began to bleat loudly, and then it reared. The horned head lunged forward, smashing solidly into the door.
The barrier kept the door and wall intact from the mighty blow, though the force was likely felt. The crystals kept the structure intact, but it was easy to see it crack and bow upon impact. It wouldn't likely hold if it continued this assault. The first ram would likely be during the boy's search of his room, perhaps halfway through his task. Time was of the essence, or the chimeras would soon find red meat.

Naenia grunted as that blow hit, and poured more of her energy into the barrier. She glanced over her shoulder at Aechon with calm blue eyes, and caught his gaze, trying to impress the gravity of this situation upon him. "Aechon, listen to me. Go outside and fly up. I will follow once you are at a safe height. But you have to go now. Please. I will be right behind you, I promise." She tried to strengthen the barrier and stared at Aechon until he did what she told him.

Aechon swallowed his fear that was lumping in his throat, and jumps - wings snapping open to carry him aloft until he was clear of the building, where he could roll the joints and bring them to flap - steadily bringing him higher with each pump. He got high enough he could find a perch atop a tree and still have a view of his window in the distance. He was sure he was safe here, and now waiting with a rising panic to see if Naenia could make it out - widened eyes latched onto that window.

The beast on the other side of the door continued to smash the goat's horns directly to the door and wall, determined to bash it down and get to the prey on the other side. The commotion drew the attention of the second, which came tearing up the stairs with a bloodlust. It would be mere moments before there were two sets of horns crashing to the wall - and likely to break it down in their fervor. If they could, they would be looking for the prey and would surely find the angel.
If she sought to flee, chances were one was likely to jump out the window in her wake in a last ditch attempt to catch her and crush her to the ground on the landing. If she sought to fight... this would be an interesting, if not terrible, bout.

Naenia built up her crystal wall as much as she could, and then she exploded it outward toward them as she jumped back and dove out the window. Her wings spread as she flapped vigorously, attempting to take toward the sky and flee. Whether or not her venture would be successful was another matter.

He saw her leap out the window and her massive wings flex out, causing him to lean forward in anticipation as he watched. He could see the monsters in his bedroom - and they were after her! He just hoped she made it out and away from them - leaving him posed to take flight towards her if she was in trouble. The threat the creatures posed didn't outweigh his panic and want to help her.

She took to flight and both beasts suffered a number of shrapnel wounds from the pieces of crystal, but the nearest chimera crossed the small room with a bloody determination - powerful muscles sending it careening through the window and shattering the frame with its bulk, with one paw outstretched to knock her out of the air at the legs, claws out to try and latch on. It would likely yank her down to the ground floor outside, letting her kiss the earth as it landed atop her with that paw rebounding free from the force.
Granted, if she still had that blasted crystal armor in place she would likely just feel the force rather than suffer injury. It would also protect her from the set of lion teeth coming in to replace the paw and latch into one of her legs. From the moment she found the ground again, she would only have a few more to spare with this one chimera before the other jumped out the window and was upon her.

So she didn't quite make it, and she found herself pulled down to the ground by the weight of a vicious monster. Tucking her wings against her back so they wouldn't be harmed, she hit the earth hard; but she kept her crystal armor intact, which meant the blow only rattled her teeth instead of breaking bones. That didn't make the teeth digging into her leg any less annoying, however, and she clenched her jaw as her sword materialized in her hand, summoned from the plane where it was kept, along with a crystalline helm and gorget forming across her head and neck. She lashed out at the head that was biting her leg even as she began to gather that holy earth magic within her body. An intricate glyph of glowing white-gold began to form beneath her body as she fought to get away. She didn't know where Aechon was, and as long as he stayed out of this, that was all that mattered.

A panicked cry sounded past his lips when he saw her get taken to the ground. He screamed out her name, eyes wildly glancing around for something he could use - finally realizing he was atop a tree. He moved down in the branches and found one that would suffice as a club, grasping it in both his small hands and using his wings to help pull. It finally snapped and gave away, sending him tumbling from the tree, but he managed to catch the air in his wings and soared in towards the encounter already in motion - panic and adrenaline was driving him to go into the danger.
His eyes set on the second one that was likely coming out to join.

The beast at her leg took a sure slice across the face, causing it to snarl and clench its jaw tighter in an almost resistant gesture. It was NOT about to let this red meat get away, and a sword cut that rend deep into the flesh wasn't quite enough to stop it.
The second one crashed to the ground as it jumped through the window, landing nearby. Neither paid a mind to the glyph, not entirely intelligent to realize it was trouble - or even pay attention to the little angel flying in. That second monster stormed right into the fray, lion and snake head lashing out to bite for her sword arm and her side respectively. If either managed to get ahold, the poor angel would likely become the object in a powerful tug-o-war match between the two massive beasts, with every intent to rip her body in half. As much as they were bleeding from their own wounds, they were determined to see the crimson spill.

Naenia did her best to twist away from the biting heads of the second beast, knowing that if it managed to latch on, she would be in a very bad situation. Her wings folded against her back and were covered by a layer of crystal to protect them, as she shifted her grip on her sword and attempted to stab deep between the eyes of the beast biting her leg, praying that the super-sharp crystal edge of her magic would succeed to at least some degree. Her other arm lashed out toward the other beast, her gauntlet-clad fist covered in extra layers of diamond-hard and sharp-edged crystal which she slammed into whatever part she could reach.
Above the fray of battle, she heard the flapping of wings, and her blue gaze snapped toward Aechon. The glyph below her pulsed with an extra surge of energy as her adrenaline spiked with fear, and she screamed over the snapping and snarling of the beasts. "STAY BACK, Aechon! Get out of here NOW!" Her voice held the power of an Archangel, difficult to ignore, if not as compelling as that of a Serpahim.. or even a more powerful Archangel.

Aechon's feet hit the ground and he froze when she screamed at him, ice running in his veins. A strangled sound escaped his lips as he was torn in a mix of fear and panic and helplessness. He couldn't just leave her, or she would die! He didn't want to lose her, too! Despite the command that urged him to take flight back where he came, he managed to force his legs to work. He didn't run directly for them, but around them. He managed to circle the encounter, and then swung the branch forward with all the might his little arms could muster - aiming to throw it at the beast.
He didn't stay to see if he hit the mark - he tore off away from them, aiming for a tree and scrambling up the trunk in a frantic mess of wings and limbs.

The stab worked beautifully, the lion's head seizing up and then thumping to the ground. It wasn't quite dead, evident in the tremors through the lion portion of the body entirely, but it was well on its way out. The jaw no longer clenched, and if Naenia could take the time to pry the jaw open she could find freedom. But in the meantime, the goat's head was bucking around frantically, and the snake was coming up over the partially slump body to attempt some snaps of its own at the angel.
The second one was still dancing around her arms that were actively seeking retaliation. The goat head took a punch and screamed out as a result, and the monster took just a couple paces back to assess the situation with this prey. Then a tree branch whacked it over the head, immediately calling the attention of all three heads to... a young prey running for a tree. It let out a bestial snarl and tore off across the ground for the boy.

Gods damn that boy! When they made it out of this, she was going to give him a serious talking to. With the lion half dying, she yanked her blade out and wedged it in the toothy maw, levering it open so that she could pull her leg out of the lion's mouth. Then she rolled away from the goat head and snake tail, and also out of the glyph which had ceased forming and was now pulsing violently. As soon as she was out of the glyph's border, she smacked a hand down on the edge, which caused it to flare vividly. Razor sharp spikes of crystal shot up out of the glyph, each twelve feet long and angled to impale the creature that had been attacking her.
But Naenia didn't stop there. As soon as she activated the glyph, she was on her feet and unfolding her wings as the crystalline shell disappeared, then launching into flight. She soared after the chimera that was chasing Aechon at top speeds as more spikes began to sprout up across the surface of her crystal armor. Thrusting her sword out ahead of her with a roar of anger, she aligned herself with the beast's body at a trajectory for a broadside strike, intending to slam into the left side of its torso with all of her strength. Between her sword and the crystal spikes all over her body, she hoped to do some damage.

He managed to get up the tree and kept climbing, intent on getting as high as possible so the monster couldn't reach him. He didn't know if they creature could climb, but even if it came down to that - once he got to the top, he could get to the air with his wings. He just had to keep going.

The partially dead beast became a fully dead beast with the spikes, spraying the ugly dark blood about its form as the entire thing went still. It wasn't rising again. -SLAIN-
The second didn't forsee Naenia barreling towards him as a spiky projectile. It was sent rolling over and over until it finally stop and found its feet, the lion's head barely able to lift. The sword had pierced through the chest cavity, and it wasn't going to continue much longer. The snake tail was flailing about in a maniac manner, spitting venom until it finally slammed to the earth a few times and stopped moving. Only the goat's head remained, screaming as it was about useless and terrified with the back legs struggling to move while the front lion portion refused to cooperate. It was slowly inching to death with no alternative. |

Naenia's sword got lodged in the beast's body and she lost her grip on it as they both hit the ground, her tumbling a few yards away before finally skidding to a stop. Pulling herself to her feet with great heaving gasps, her wings hung limply behind her as she staggered over to where it lay flailing, and she reached down to grab her blade's hilt and yank the weapon free. As the crystal reformed across the metal edge, she plunged it into the goat's head with finality, then sagged against the nearby tree. The crystalline armor began to fade away from her body as she tried to regain her breath, and her blue gaze wandered slowly upward to see where Aechon was. It hurt to breathe; there was a stabbing pain in her side every time she tried. She'd probably fractured a rib when she slammed into the second chimera.
"Are you.. injured?" She gasped the words at him, twitching her wings experimentally. There was a twinge in the left one as it moved, but she could still fly.
