Elizabeth's Domain

[Elf]

Forest

Forest blinked as Thorra's "body" vanished in a somewhat flashy fashion befitting the child of the God of Thunder.

Then the hammer made sure that the armor was properly fit and at the comment about being scarily compatible the vampire blushed.

Her body performed a spinning roundhouse kick and the bathroom almost didn't make it.  Wide eyed Forest looked around and felt as if Thorra was patting her back.  Then she spun the hammer herself with a smirk.

"And let's make them have a very bad day," the vampire said.

Hey, if I spin you really fast can I fly? Forest asked through their connection.

The Pleasure Palace

Midmorning, Day 4...

The Grand Hall

Elizabeth sat atop her throne from the upper balcony. Her perch stood high above the throngs of people crowded in the room-she looked upon thousands of her subjects, crossed her legs and smiled. Seeing them offer their praises, their adultation, she sucked in a deep breath and tasted the joy in the air. It filled her with giddiness. She turned her head to talk to her wife before she shook her head.

No, she was down there right now-she was excited to see that little toy she'd brought home show off her mettle.

"Heh. Let's see what her cute little morsel has to show me." She leaned forward, focusing her gaze on her, down there, standing next to Vanilla and talking with her...

Vanilla

To Mira's eye, Vanilla would have seemed to be exceptionally serious-for one, the usual bulge she had in her panties was gone, laid flat for the upcoming fights. The much-taller woman leaned over, giving her lover a full view of her breasts, she glared at her. "Don't think I'm going to hold back just because of what you told me last night..."

[Aiden]

Mira

Midmorning, Day 4

A hint of a smile reached Mira's face as, all soreness and strangeness of the day before obviously forgotten, she cocked her head to the side. "I'd be insulted if ya did. Give me your best shot."

Then, turning abruptly around, she began to stalk toward her waiting spot. The martial artist stretched like a predatory cat, arms up over her head and back arching while she walked.

It helped hide the bead of sweat that threatened to drip down her forehead.

Thorra

I don't mind, but I think we should go outside before you fling me around like that! Thorra exclaimed pensively. She looked back and forth, eyes trailing down to the bolts on the floor.

"Phew. I didn't break anything..."

The Pleasure Palace

Down below, the crowd was tumultuous and loud. They surrounded a stage, where a tall, redskinned demoness was holding a microphone, flanked by nearly-naked catgirls in bunny-outfits.

"My friends! Colleagues! Subjects! Guests!" She spread out her arms and took a step forwards, thrusting her chest forward for all to see. "I am pleased to announce the commencement of our annual contest to decide who's the strongest person in the ennnntire Nexus! It's time for the start of the Greatest Fighter Under the Sun!"

One of the catgirls leaned over slightly and whispered something into her fellow's ear. "Do you think Lizzy had trouble with that name? It seems pretty basic..." The other one standing next to her hissed at her. "Get back into position, we're almost up!"

"Nooow, to review the rules for those who aren't familiar with this tradition!

"One! No killing your opponents! That's an automatic forfeit!" She shouted, holding a single finger up.

"Two! You cannot rely upon outside aid! That's also a forfeit!" She brought up her second finger and took a deep breath.

"Three! Fight fairly! I don't want to see anyone trying to set things up outside the ring!"

She threw her fist into the air and let out a loud yell. "Now, let it officially begin!" Behind her, confetti burst into the air, trailing down over her. Small flashes of fireworks filled the air with a brilliant light show, bathing the room in alternating colors.

[Elf]

Forest

"Well, let's head outside then," Forest said as she walked out of the stall, sighing in relief when she saw nothing was really broken.

"Well, Lady Elizabeth isn't lacking in funds to fix it," Forest muttered as she lifted her head up and emerged from the bathroom.

Thorra

Everyone gaped at her-two gorgous woman had walked in, and now all the eyes were on Forest as they walked out. She could feel them following her like pinpricks as Thorra dragged the two out of the building, squatting down a bit and looking at the sky.

Now, show me what this so-called marvel thor does to fly!"

[Elf]

Forest

Eh, sod it, Forest thought as she felt all eyes upon her.  So she tossed her long, golden hair as she stepped outside.

She sent to the hammer, Well, he starts spinning it really fast, like this!

Forest lifted her head as she spun the hammer as she had seen Thor do many times in the movies, gaining more and more momentum with each pass.

Thorra

W-whoa! Why! She exclaimed. She felt the air crackling around her while Forest spun her around and around, faster and faster. What's the point of this! She took a deep breath and composed herself before blasting the two up into the sky at the speed of sound.

[Elf]

Forest

I think because he has to get the momentum going to get the lift, Forest sent while she was too busy laughing as they were air born.

Then Forest frowned as she asked, Thorra-Poppet, you can pilot us right?

Thorra

"Fufufu, of course!" With that statement, the two suddenly made a ninety degree turn, flying straight past a skyscraper. They circled around the outside of the building, staring down at the people milling about doing their bussiness. "I'm an expert pilot! Taking control of your body like this is easy as breathing for me!"

[Umbra of Chaos]

Uria

Midmorning, Day 4

How fun, how fun! Uria was literally aglow with light. Sparkles of radiance drifted off of them as a multicolored lightshow, one far more spectacular than the fireworks above. Their eyes scouted out for any competitors that looked particularly notable. With the void within whispering, it would be hard for anyone of real note to escape their notice.

Hannah

Midmorning, 4th Day

And there, falling down from one of the fireworks in a flip and a three point landing next to her, followed by a bouncy bounce back up to her feet, was Hannah! She was in her full succubus glory, holding a pair of pom poms while dressed in a two piece cheerleader uniform, and stretching her arms out for all to see. "Thaaaat's right everyone! I hope you're all ready to go, because we've got a bunch of great matches for all of you today!"

She waved an arm to the side, and used the pom pom to disguise the creation of an illusion. It demonstrated a series of brackets for all of the audience to witness, with far too much effort put into the stick figure displays there. "The first round of fighting is as so - eight matches of two fighters each will take place concurrently!" The illusion demonstrated the sixteen stick figures battling it out, and eight of them falling before their foes. "The winners of each match will go on to fight a randomly selected opponent from among themselves-" the illusion continued to winnow out the numbers "- and so on, until the final championship round!"

But then she grinned and waved her hands about in front of herself, causing the illusion to flash and rewind a couple of times for emphasis before fading away in a puff of smoke. Her chest bounced with her motions, and her demonic hooves clacked against the ground which the microphone caught. "Don't worry about feeling overwhelmed, though! You'll be able to see eeeverything right from your seats~! Or from your special rooms, for those of you watching from home!"

She turned to the demons and catgirls next to her then, and smiled. "Thanks again for inviting me to help host this one!"

[Elf]

Forest

"You know, if it wasn't for this divine-cosmic power coursing through me right now, I'd be a might miffed about you saying it's easy to take me over," Forest said as they banked around a skyscraper.

She threw out her arms and said, "Let's do a barrel roll!"

[Panda]

Neil

Midmorning, Day 4

The werewolf's last few days had been curious ones, quiet for the most part, outside of his daily hunts. The last few had been less than lethal, more a test of skill and timing than brutality. Some guy with more money than sense humiliated by being chased down the wrong alley, into a nest of pickpockets and hustlers, and picked clean before being tossed out on his ass. Others were testaments to the werewolf's precise, savage brutality. A drug lab cleared out and burned out, the bodies spirited away without a trace.

The advertisement had popped up on TV, one night after dinner, and his curiosity and a bit of good old battle-lust had led him here, to a place filled to the brim with cute girls, sitting in some waiting area as the red demon laid out the rules.

Pretty basic, huh. Almost painfully so, Neil noted to himself, looking around at the competition, or at least whoever had showed up. He couldn't have cared less about the title, but the prize money and the fighting were another matter entirely.

Nanako

Nanako, meanwhile, found herself captivated by all the cute girls on display. The squirrel girl's eyes roamed from curves that could smother her, to arms that could bend and twist and choke her, to legs that could almost certainly do the same. The rules as they were listed off barely registered to the squirrel girl, already bouncing and zipping around excitedly, tail rapidly flicking back and forth behind her. She was given pause as an especially cute succubus with pom poms started explaining the brackets, eyes alight as she looked her over before glancing up to the brackets listed.

Yesterday's training had done wonders for Nanako, Sethrol's instruction and her confrontation with herself leaving her feeling lighter than she had in the past few days. Even lighter than she'd felt with Carin's help, though she still cherished her bond with the helpful little goddess. She'd even started getting used to the wings, getting the hang of moving herself around with them. For now, however, she glanced around at whatever she could see of the competition before focusing her attention back on the cute girls doing cute things.
