The White Rabbit Cafe

[Methodless Madness]

Maria swore softly, her brow furrowing.

Aiden looked up, startled, before bolting into the back room, crouching on the floor with Suki cradled in his arms, the door open just enough for him to see a little of what was going on.  

[XSuki_MikaX]

As the dragon's human form comes into view Ikima stands, growling and baring fang, static seeming to swell around him. Imogen turns and looks at the man, a slight smile on his face. "Well well. How's our little pet doing? Did I knock her down good?" His smile spreads into a grin, showing fang.  

[Methodless Madness]

The woman stared at Imogen, her eyes narrowed.
"Don't you dare come any closer, you fiend," she said through gritted teeth, venom dripping through her voice.  

[XSuki_MikaX]

Hunching down a bit, Ikima's nearly reared for attack.
Smiling wider, his laugh sounds like gravel. "Oh~? Why not, little girl?"  

[Methodless Madness]

She took in a deep breath, gathering up her magic.
"Because I can level you in one blow."  

[XSuki_MikaX]

Static gathering around Ikima's body is now visible, the crackles churning through the air. Imogen raises his hands, blackish purple scales showing through the skin, his nails long and sharp talons, black. Magic starts to surround his hands, black magic, gathering with heat.  

[Methodless Madness]

Maria held her hands in front of her, a milky blue shield forming between them and the dragon. She pushed it out farther, the translucent magic crackling vibrantly with cold sparks.  

[XSuki_MikaX]

Lifting a hand, he points at the shield, a bolt of the black magic shooting from his fingertip and ripping through the shield at the witch and shapeshifter.  

[XSuki_MikaX]

When Fei-Tao looks, Imogen's there, barely a foot away from him, and swooping in with his claws, going to wrench them into the wolf boy's gut.  

[Methodless Madness]

Maria flinched back as Imogen ripped through her shield, jumping away a fraction of a second too late and ending up with a gash on her shoulder. Her eyes grew wide as Fei-Tao battled Imogen, surprised. She looked to Ikima, wondering if he was okay. "I'm sorry," she mumbled, "I thought my magic could hold him."

Aiden watched from his hiding place, biting his lip when he saw his friends injured. Nervously, he stroked Suki's ears.  

[XSuki_MikaX]

Under Aiden's touch, Suki's ears twitch a little bit.
Laughing at the wolf boy, Imogen catches his fist, squeezing hard enough to just keep from crushing his hand, then whirls, flinging Fei Tao into the nearby wall. He turns, Ikima now charging him, and braces his shoulders a bit before letting out a roar, which is returned with more venom by Ikima, who rams a shoulder into the dragon's chest. Imogen's sight stops for a moment, all of the air sucked out of him as Ikima slams him into a table. Wrenching his hands into his ribs, Ikima digs his claws in before slamming him into the table again, which is retaliated by Imogen pulling back his legs and slamming them into Ikima's ribs, and with a deafening crack Ikima is thrown off, slamming into the counter across the room and falling to the floor with a loud thud. Imogen stands, dusting himself off, laughing like gravel, and turns to Maria, his gaze more vicious than before.

[Epic one person battle scene. XD]  

[Methodless Madness]

Maria narrows her eyes, surveying the chaos. "Do you know how much it's going to cost to clean that up?" she mutters, starting toward him and strengthening her mental barriers before launching herself at him.
[[...this took me so long to write. I kept making it super "Scott Pilgrim vs. The World"-ish and then was like, "WHAT. NO."]]
