Salmook shrieks and staggers back. What in the stars?! One heartbeat, Tseth is holding danger-lady by the arm, and the next beat he's in the air. Demon!
Salmook hides behind his chair, half-ready to throw it. It wouldn't go very far, but it's the thought that counts.

Daphne looks up, and sees Blaze throwing Tseth into the air. She jumps to her feet and suddenly yells at Blaze. “STOP IT!” She looks absolutely terrified of Blaze. “Uh- please..?”

Sylvia quickly stands up and backs away from Blaze. “Please, lets all stop fighting-“

Blaze slides into a low, feral crouch and snarls at Daphne. Her pale eyes burn with a violent air. She didn't want to be here, so she was taking that anger out on anyone nearby.

Unfortunately, it seemed that the next nearest person happened to be Daphne.

In a flash of limbs, Blaze is right in front of Daphne.

The good news is she's unconscious before she hits the floor.

The bad news is the amount of pain she felt in the flash before she was unconscious, from being slammed in the diaphragm then the head, would have been enough to knock her out anyways.

As long as Salmook stays away and Tseth stays down, they should be fine.

Oh, fucking shit- Before he can think, he’s thrown into the air by Blaze. He quickly uses his wings to re-orient himself, but since he wasn’t thrown very high he still stumbles back on the landing. When he gains his balance and looks over, Blaze had already knocked Daphne unconscious. A low, inhuman growl escapes him as he looks at Blaze. “What the fuck are you on?! She didn’t do anything to you!”

Blaze's gaze, far from rational at this point, snaps back to Tseth.

He honestly should have just stayed down.

She leaps forward like a cat, then leaps straight up into the air, above the winged man. She brings a leg down and delivers a gravity assisted axe kick to the skull. (We call this a difficulty tweak-)

Salmook is frozen for a good few seconds. He reaches for the chair, but it's too heavy to drag, let alone pick up and throw. What can he do?! Danger-lady is being dangerous!
Salmook rifles through his own pockets. There's not much in there: a few sticks, a branch of berries, what he thinks is a mushroom… his loop-toy… The thought lingers in his mind. He could throw his loop-toy!
What is he? Stupid? His hands clutch the toy tighter. He wouldn't throw it if had caught fire, much less as a weapon. Salmook backs away and into a wall. Sticks. He reaches for the mushroom instead - it's one of the squiggly mushrooms that gave Salmook a bellyache earlier. He throws it at the danger-lady. It's more of a warning to stay away, if anything.

Tseth was more than prepared for a fight with someone. Not Blaze, but someone. He manages to dodge the kick, grabbing her leg and throwing her to the ground. He knew he wouldn’t be able to hold up a fight for long, but being a dark dragon had a few advantages. He backs up a few steps, watching Blaze.

Sylvia watches silently for a while, then quickly pulls out a dart gun and shoots at Blaze with terrifying accuracy.

(Yes they have tranq guns as well, no this definitely wasn’t an on-the-spot decision I made to keep everyone from dying immediately this better work)

(I hope we know Tseth has lasted the longest out of everyone Blaze has sparred with in about 3 years.

Blaze uses her momentum to handspring back up and deliver a vicious blow the Tseth's chest.

Even if Tseth were to fend her off, it wouldn't be for very long. The more into a fight she gets, the less she wants it to end.

Battle junkie syndrome, at its finest.

Blaze feels something hit the body armor in her uniform and snarls, immediately turning to face Sylvia, growling.

Then, she slumps, over, unconscious.
