That was why, when Lian saw Lily cast the spell again she spoke up, “Um… not to put down your efforts Lily, but that didn’t do anything the first time, I’d suggest not wasting any more mana on them,”

*Well that’s not really a surprise. I guess I’ll just have to think up something else…* A new idea didn’t take long to come to Lily at all. Once again, trying to waste as little mana as possible Lily summoned large stationary pieces of paper, but this time she focused on cutting down their height, and summoning them at ankle height. “Tell me how this goes” said Lily.

Lian watched Lily’s new barrage. Swordy stepped over the first two, though the first step was a bit awkward, it didn’t slow her down much, and the second one didn’t matter at all. The third looked like it was going to share a similar fate, but Lily had made the fourth even smaller and placed it just a bit ahead of the third.

Swordy stepped over the third gracefully, without noticing the final slip of paper, she stamped down on it accidentally and when she went to push off again, Swordy found that magically summoned paper was pretty slippery, especially when you’re running at such a high speed.

Swordy’s hand whipped out to grab the nearby support beam to keep herself up, but instead of a nice handhold, she found her hand full of splinters as the wood crumbled under her hands proving that they really needed to renovate the roof at some point. Arms still flailing, Swordy’s sword slashed through the roof, and dropped a bit of snow on her. It wasn’t enough snow to be an issue but it was humiliating enough for her to let out an angry scream. “RAAGH!”

There was a moment, where that all seemed like a great idea. Swordy was delayed, the roof was at risk if Swordy did something stupid like attacking with a qi ability, and Lily was gaining distance from Swordy. That was until Swordy started to glow and launched herself after the two at about twice the speed. “Lily we have a problem! The sword bitch is gaining on us!” yelled Lian with all the strength she could muster at the moment.

Lily spared a glance behind her and found Lian was very much correct. *Shit. Shit… um…. PAPER CANNON!* Lily fired a dense cloud of paper straight at Swordy’s chest. Wasting a good chunk of mana in an attempt to slow down Swordy who looked a lot like an angry bull in that moment. That was part of why Lily and Lian were so shocked when Swordy gracefully dodged around the barrage of paper, barely slowing, and taking no damage whatsoever.

*Well. That ain’t good chief.* Lily frowned at that as Swordy made up what distance Lily had grabbed with her paper trick. Now she was down a chunk of mana, Swordy was still catching up, and the roof was about to end. *Wait what was that last part?* That’s when Lily looked ahead, properly, and realised that they were about to run into the corner of the house. Shit. *Forward or take a left? What’s the better option here?* Lily didn’t have long to decide, and without really knowing where she was trying to run to, Lily decided to take the left.

.....

Lily was very tempted to swing herself around, hooking her clawed hands into one of the supports and letting herself spin around, but Swordy had already proven that was a bad idea. Lily herself might be lighter then Swordy, but she had Lian as well, and it was pure grip strength that shattered the previous support. It didn’t even have the chance to hold up the weight.

So Lily instead dug her boots into the wood as best she could and tried to change trajectory quickly. It was… mostly a success. Lian might’ve had her shoulder clip a support beam, but Lian didn’t complain and the beam didn’t shatter so Lily was counting that as a win. Especially when Swordy had to slow down noticeably to make the turn, giving Lily a bit of distance she was, once again, loosing rapidly.

*Gah. What am I supposed to do? I only know like two spells! It’s hard learning magic alright! I don’t even know who I’m complaining to! Kat I guess? Urgh, don’t think about how your girlfriend is going up against someone who is at least Rank 4. Think about more important things like the sword maniac that’s rapidly catching up to you!*

A small part of Lily, the romantic part, was complaining that Kat was ALWAYS more important, but the rest of her mind pointed out that if they died, they’d never see Kat again anyway so there focus was better served on running away right now. The romantic part, shocked at this revelation agreed.

Sadly, that agreement didn’t give her some newfound burst of speed. Lily was surprised at just how fast she was, and it wasn’t overly tyring just yet, but sadly, that speed wasn’t better then Swordy. A quick glance behind her revealed Swordy looked just as determined as before. They’d only cleared a small distance really so it’s not like Lily was expecting Swordy to be exhausted, but it would’ve been nice certainly.

*Hmmm… so I need to figure out where to get off this merry-go-round, hopefully before Swordy catches me or I reach the next corner because I can’t just keep running in circles forever. Well… hmm… actually… maybe I could? What are the chances they bust through the ceiling I’m running on? A good portion of the workforce were surrounding that room… and I doubt they’re all quick. Then again… we’re not exactly quiet up here, so I wouldn’t be surprised if they’re starting to follow down below. Yeah… dodging attacks from below and running from Swordy would not be ideal. So what do I do about it?*

“Lily!” hissed Lian, and Lily reacted instinctively. She didn’t know what the problem was, so she just leapt forward and to the side. The spot Lily had just been sitting in was sliced through with a blade of air. Apparently Swordy was starting to be less concerned with property damage.

*Shit. Shit. Shit. Ok, I need to figure out where to go. Can we… I could just head off the property right? Kat can find us later… but can we get down the mountain if I do so? Maybe? I’d need to see it… so I guess it’s time to gamble a bit.*

Lily glanced dawn at her hand and pulled her claws back to the surface. Listening carefully, and noting that Swordy hadn’t caught up just yet, Lily kicked off the ground hard and slashed towards the roof. Now, sadly, this roof was not so poorly maintained, and while she did slice through it, the roof didn’t completely crumble under the blow. Eye’s widening in horror, Lily pulled her legs up and kicked out with as much power as she could, succeeding in breaking through…

At the cost of Swordy catching up. Lily felt a hand tighten around her tail and pull her back in. Thinking quickly she threw Lian to the side, onto the snowy roof, as Lily herself twisted around as best she could. Swordy had her sword raised and it was coming down to strike at Lily’s neck. Apparently mercy wasn’t on the table at the moment. Lily grimaced as she brought her claws up to defend herself, a clang ringing out as they collided with the sword.

Lily tried to transform to escape the grip even as she was pushed backwards into the ground, but found something blocking it. Her mind went to the obvious. She couldn’t transform while Swordy had her tail in hand. Lily didn’t know if it was the qi, the grip, the tail specifically, or if she was just panicking and failing the process, but she was ready to fight. For her freedom.

Lily landed as best she could, her tail was still being pulled away from her, but apparently it was pretty sturdy. It wasn’t a pleasant feeling, but Swordy wasn’t crushing it, and her tail didn’t feel like it was being pulled out of her back. Swordy lifted her sword up to bring down on her tail and Lily came in, one hand to block the sword, the other to stab the bitches neck. Lily was starting to run out of mercy too it seemed.
