"The Nine Dragons will destroy the Jabberwockys with pleasure," Fen retorted coldly. "Starting with you, old man." Fen nodded at Maris, who drove her flamestream into a series of parked cars' engines. As the vehicles exploded, Maris used the generated sparks and fire to bolster her already-existing inferno into a true firestorm. She began stalking forward.

"Play with fire, and you're gonna get burned, asshole," she said. Mirroring the attacker's move, she too covered herself with flame and took on the appearance of a lavalike being. Good thing her outfit was flame-retardant. She ran forward and locked in combat, sending forth twin thrusts of blaze columns.

Fen dashed over to the trapped girl, extending her halberd, and used blasts of Wind Dust to pry the concrete grip off. She also signaled to Freya, who ran over.

"Message the other Daybreakers to regroup back at the base. The police and SWAT are gonna be here soon, and the last thing we want is to have to take responsibility for this." She was interrupted by Artume grabbing her shoulder.

"What?"

"Maris and that guy are have elemental semblances, which take a lot of energy to maintain. They might seem unstoppable now but they'll tire way faster than in most fights if they keep this up." Seeing Fen unresponsive, the Daybreaker continued. "We'll be able to take him down once he's drained. Everyone else is gonna be here in a few minutes, and -"

"No, we can't risk getting caught. Let him get arrested or killed, but we've become way too high-key already. Come on, we don't have time to discuss this!" Fen yelled, before running over to Maris. In the sound of crackling fire on concrete, she had to yell to be heard.

"Maris, we have to get outta here, it's too risky!" Surprisingly, there was no protest from the girl. The pyromancer sent one last blast of fire the way of her opponent before all of the flame on her body extinguished, although curling tendrils remained smoking from her clothing. All four of the girls began sprinting away, down the street. Meanwhile, Maris drew up so that she was running next to Fen.

"Look, I really hope you know what you're doing."

"Just trust me," Fen panted. "Glad you follow orders."

"Heh," came the response. "Almost got killed the one time I didn't."
