Amy

"Aand they're Lodge. They want to eat me and feed their totem through them." Amy said dryly. "Might want to get that teleport ready Lilly." the girl sent.

"Like right now." she said as she subtly gathered the force around her in case the 'wolves decided to get cute before Lilly could pull a save.

Well, cute was relative when you were talking about rampaging murder machines wanting to have you literally for lunch . It was kinda like dealing with a pack of angry Houndooms and Mightyena. She thought with an inward shudder. Only less flambe'd and more eaten alive.

Given the word from Amy, Lilly teleports from where she is (within 250m of Amy and close to Viv and Adeleth), appearing with Amy between herself and the Lodge people, grabs Amy, and teleports back to where she started.

Where she assesses the situation and gets ready to teleport all four of them away...

OOC: Using Turnabout on her Teleport to do so as quickly as possible. Also Danger Sense to react to anything unexpected...

" Rrrelax...I am on yourrrr side..." comes the voice...and you see a massive cat walk down a tree. It's much larger than an ordinary cat and moving down the trunk in a way no cat ever would, sauntering down as if gravity just happens to politely ignore it. It looks like an overgrown british shorthair...except for that massive grin on its face.
" Abnoba told me to come herrrre. Prrretty much prrress-ganged me. As if I wasn't always rrready to help those in need..."

Meanwhile, the six people are standing up and their bodies begin to contort as bones creak and skin tears and heals at the same time....the transformation being much faster than it seems....

That is what happens when the transformation is halfway complete.

Amy

"Thank you Lilly and it's a true pleasure to meet you Cheshire cat," Amy said, noting the wide grin and complete disregard of gravity. It seemed to fit the large feline and considering it's namesake, she said it without any hint of mockery. "And we have incoming. Hungry incoming." she looked at the others calmly, frighteningly so, considering her earlier brief panic.

"We're going to have to take care of this, they're the ones feeding the totem spirit that's causing the issue. I also hesitate to kill them, because their deaths might also feed it." she looked to the "cat" for confirmation as her pokemon surrounded them facing the threat of the 'wolves in the clearing. "On the downside, there is also no reasoning with them." she said dryly.

OOC
Even if he's not the Cheshire Puss. A talking cat with a wide grin and gravity defying powers.... It's a perfectly natural assumption.

"Always happy to rescue a friend from certain death!" replies Lilly.

"Hello cat creature. So, should we run away now?" she concludes, looking around at the others. "Or are we fighting?"

Amy

"We can't run Lilly." Amy said softly. "If we do, they'll eat the next poor unfortunate soul that wanders by them and with each feeding, that thing above us grows stronger." she said waving to the there-not there spirit-near-god thing.

She scowled. "We can't deal with the totem directly, but we can deal with the feeders. If we do that, maybe the good Lady Abnoba will be able to deal with the totem more easily."

Sometimes, she didn't know how she could be so calm in situations like this, oh, she was scared sure, she always was. The calmness and the fear, swirling around her like a tornado of contradictions. She meditated briefly, letting the calm overtake her and with it came the clarity she needed.

This was no different than fighting any rampaging pokemon like Gyrandos. You could die or get hurt just as easily doing that. She laughed inwardly. A wise man once said, war isn't about dying for your cause. It's making sure the other sod died for theirs. In this case, it was making sure nobody died.... At least that was the feeling she got.

"Do you think this holy water will work on them?" asks Lilly, holding up a bottle of the stuff from earlier.

The cat lowers its head in a curteous nod to Amy. " I am pleased. Someowne with a decent education. I can and will help. Us cats and the old gods go way back. And this thing is making Abnoba verrry crrranky. Something not even a good purrrrr can help with. So...claws and teeth and mayhem it is!"

Speaking of mayhem...something big is headed through the underbrush towards you all.

Amy
The girl grinned at the cat. "Hey, grew up in Alaska. Reading was good entertainment when you were in a blizzard and there isn't a child born who doesn't know about the Cheshire cat. At least not where I come from." her grin turned slightly feral. "It will be a pleasure to fight with you by my side." she looked at Lilly. "Holy water probably won't work, you can give it a go though." she considered. "It all depends on how deeply corrupted the wolves are by that Lodge totem thing and what the corruption is."

You only really got stronger by dealing appropriately with your fear. Her way was usually with copious amounts of violence and snarky comments directed at whatever made her scared. Hey, it worked for her.

Lilly hefts a bottle of holy water, ready to throw it when whatever is coming comes into range, then teleport up into a tree and out of the way.

OOC: Lilly initiative: 1D20+6 = [2]+6 = 8; very slightly better than Amy's but nothing to write home about...

Adeleth returns to solid form, pointing her gun at the sound of whatever is approaching. She has her blessed bullets loaded and as soon as she fires, she's going insubstantial.

"There are six of them? That's too many normal folks for us to fight."

Amy

"They aren't normal, they're were-wolves." Amy told her. "We'll have to use the wilderness to our advantage. She's friendly to us, not them." she said. "Lilly, ask the trees and plants to hinder them as much as possible and to help us if they can see an opening. That may help us. Tangle them, trip them, impede them, that sort of thing. Heck, if they have poison that does anything to them, rip them up with it."

"Hide behind trees if you can. Use the terrain if possible." she turned to the approaching wolves, eyes glowing blue with power. She does take her own advice and uses what cover she can.

"Yes, they aren't normal. And if they were normal they'd STILL be too many. Not everything people say is literal."
