Traci fell to the floor with a thud from the noise, temporarily deaf and having no sense of balance. She slowly got onto her hands and knees, only to fall down to the ground again. "Wha..." She blinked a couple of times, her vision a bit blurry while the floor looked like it was moving all over the place.

[i]Around the two Tribune agents - or well, one of Tribune, the other of Trayve - the flooring had begun to crack and splinter. The very earth beneath them would quiver with a sudden seismic energy once the screech had ended, as around the arena, structures would collapse and fall to the earth.[/i] "W-What the.. hold on, I can stop this!" [i]Rue yelled, as she pressed a single hand against the ground. The room, and frankly the palace tower that the two were within, would stop. Yet Rue was suffering from the results, crying out in pain.[/i] "...it's underneath the arena. Something's.. causing this!"

Traci slowly collected herself, her sword flying into her hand as she got up and began to move toward the exit. "Then we better go kill it!"

"Liz, I can't-" [i]The ground would shake again as a screeching noise was heard again, except it sounded as if something metallic was being shredded and ripped from the very earth.[/i] "I-I can't leave the tower without it collapsing, Liz!" [i]Rue yelled, crying out again. Her being had gone pale, blood vessels shining through her now deathly skin.[/i]

"Rue, we can get out of this! Let go! I'll carry you! There's enough time!" Traci sheathed her sword and extended a hand to Rue. "I'm not leaving you."

"I-I.." [i]Rue looked up, as she nodded and extended her only hand. The tower would begin to crack and quiver, rock falling from the ceiling as Rue grabbed Traci's hand.[/i]

Traci pulled Rue into her arms and picked her up so she was carrying her bridal style before sprinting faster than humanly possible through the tower. She made her way to the bottom as fast as she could, actually hurting her body and tearing it apart from pushing herself.

[i]The tower cracked and collapsed as stone crashed to the ground, the rubble and debris falling to the cracking concrete as Traci committed to the saving act. As they reached the central courtyard of the palace, Rue had stuttered and cried out in terror, her eyes once calm, now struck by amazement and yet, fear.[/i] "W-What.. how d-did.. Liz.." [i]She wanted to know how "Elizabeth" had done that. She would not get an answer, not yet, for a larger threat emerged.[/i] [i]From the arena itself, a crashing noise broke through the land as a giant black shape rose from the earth, scattering the arena's great stands across the city as if effortlessly. The great being flew high into the air, rays of brilliant sunlight glistening off the ancient obsidian scales as the beast would stretch it's wings, the veins of the structures a deep purple color.[/i] [i]As the dragon's shape blotched out the sun and roared with such a magnitude that the earth shook once more, the citizens of Khaom would cut the bells and horns of war. Only to yell one phrase, and one phrase only, as the great beast descended..[/i] "[i]Ragnarok! Ragnarok has come![/i]" [spoiler]End, for a time.[/spoiler]

[spoiler]What. The. F*ck. Lol.[/spoiler]
