Hope this is okay, feel free to lemme know/edit if its not.
The bullets from her guns seemed to be doing nothing. Not even distracting the mad sorceress for the torment of her two SeeD team members. This had been the worst day ever.
It was the first time Stella really had gotten to see the sword. Watching it as it tumbled end from end clattering loudly on the ground. Gazing at it almost in a trance she holstered her guns and moved forward. Other people deserved to use this sword more, the other members of her team had sweat and bleed for it much more then she had. One of the deserved to land the killing blow and she wasn't going to deny them of that. But someone did need to distract Adel to rescue Blaze and Stardust from their predicament.
Hefting the sword up from the floor she started running right at the sorceress, leaping up she turned the blade. With a grin she rammed it right into the sorceresses’ foot.

Stella that's gonna get you killed for eff's sake! Rayden couldn't believe Stella could do something that impulsive, but then who's to say he did understand any part of her anyway? But as a bona fide ladies' man he couldn't stand around and do nothing. Or even if he did nothing he had to say something.
He strode up in front of Adel, staring for a while as she played with Stardust and Blaze like a pair of percussion instruments.
"Hey babe." I'll bet nobody ever calls her that. It'll be fitting as a distraction. He grinned up at Adel, trying not to let his eyes wander towards Stardust and Blaze, or the anguished look on Sorceress Rinoa's face. Ignoring Ariadnialla's slew of disgusted insults, he widened his grin with even more bravado. "What say you put those three ladies down, it's not gonna help your complexion at all if you keep being exposed to all that negative energy. Or maybe..." A suggestive glint lit his eyes "...there's something you might be interested in trading them in for."

Jun didn't think she had this kind of paralysing panick before. None of their attacks worked, Adel was holding Stardust and Blaze ransom as well. What a fine dandy start to a battle. They were already losing even before it began. With Sapphy still unconscious she couldn't count on any sagely advice too.
But the most important thing...they had to ensure Sorceress Rinoa didn't die before they manage to beat Adel. It would mean the end for them, for Adel would only become more powerful and perhaps even the Trinity sword wouldn't be able to slay her if her powers were fully absorbed by Adel. She turned around and centered her attention on Vanesse.
"Vanesse, you have healing magic don't you? Can you keep an eye on Sorceress Rinoa and make sure she has enough energy but don't heal too much cos it would all get sucked in by Adel. While the rest of us...." She turned back to observe Adel. Stella was attacking her foot with the Trinity Sword and Rayden attempting some kind of foolish operation at flirting with Adel. Jun was sure his would be a waste of effort.
"Hey how about if we try to make her absorb bad status effects by afflicting Sorceress Rinoa? Like what they say when you suck poison from an infected wound you'd get poisoned as well. I'll do it." Jaime whirled around and cast a Pain at Rinoa.
"What the hell do you think...you're doing..." Jun shouted at Jaime and moved to stop her, but too late, the Pain had already been cast. "I said to make sure Sorceress Rinoa stays alive not kill her!" She yelled, taking out a Remedy, only to have it yanked away by Jaime.
"We wait now."

Vanesse
P-Pain on Rinoa? For the first time, she was thankful Commander Squall Leonhart was not here. Who knows what kind of hell he would unleash if he were to witness this? Vanesse certainly didn't want any Pain being casted on her no matter what. Atleast Rinoa was semi-unconscious.
"Okay! Leave the healing to me!" Vanesse smiled like everything was under control. Jaime usually had better ideas than her, so she would place her bets on this one. She casted Curaga on Rinoa to ease the poison status she was in right now. "Try sucking her now," she smirked. That didn't sound right.
--------------------------------------------
OOC:
I can imagine Squall saying kudos to Jaime because she did what she had to hahaha

Hadrian
Hadrian looked around. He wasn't sure of what to do. Stardust and Blaze were still alive after being treated like cymbals, so they were good, but Rinoa...
"Hey, hey, is this the right thing to do?" he asked, looking up. "Being inflicted by pain, while maintaining her HP, isn't that more like torture...?"
He wished he had a better idea to shake Adel off, but he had none. The only thing to do was to wait till her status affects Adel. Why? Why of all tactics did Adel choose to do the same thing again? He had read history books about Adel's past endeavors with Rinoa and... I was expecting she wouldn't do the same thing, so I didn't even bother to imagine this scenario. How was she beaten last time?
Hadrian watched as Vanesse casted Curaga on Rinoa, adding fire to the torment.
Commander Leonhart's fangirls would have a field day with this.

Stardust
Amidst the insanity, Stardust's forehead creased at Adel's lack of reaction when Stella planted the Trinity Sword on her foot. Isn't she supposed to be vulnerable against the sword? No. It probably was the wrong spot. That must be it. That's right. There was no way the story about the Trinity Sword would betray them now. It was the only thing they got against her. Rayden was trying to negotiate with her. Her forehead creased even more.
"What are you saying?!" she shouted at Rayden. "We're not going to trad---" Stardust's head flailed when Adel drew back her hand again. Was she going to smack us together again?! However, that wasn't it. Someone casted Pain on Rinoa and Stardust became appalled.
The painful expression Rinoa had while nestled on Adel's chest doubled. It was like she was dying but couldn't die. She intended once again to scream at whoever did that, but it seemed like Adel was able to suck some of the status effect on Rinoa. Is that it?
-----------------
OOC: We are so mean to Rinoa XD

Storyteller
Sorceress Adel lets out a groan and, without any warning, sends Stardust and Blaze flying towards their team members.
Caught off guard, Stardust and Blaze grit their teeth as they are chucked in the air. Blaze lands on Gemma while Stardust lands on Jax.
"I-Insolent fools...." she hisses in pain, as she floats midway in the air, unreachable from any weapon attacks. She spreads her hands and looks down at them. She opens her mouth and a strange language resounds.
A song?
It seems not all of you can hear it. You look around to see Sho, Gemma, Jax, and Polaris clutch their head in pain, desperately trying to shut off the sound. These four can hear it.
Adel pauses. "Requiem!" she roars and in that moment, Gemma's, Jax's, Sho's, and Polaris's eyes glow red, rendering them in Confuse state.
Stella
Sho is standing the closest to you. You are about to ask him what is wrong when he suddenly throws his fist towards your face. In a split second, your gaze passes down on his free hand. He seems to be conjuring a strong wind spell!
Blaze
Gemma is the closest to you. She stands there for a while then suddenly yells out, "Full-Life!" To your surprises, she cast it on Adel. She then starts casting another support magic. It looks like it's for Adel again.
Rayden, Deo
A huge axe almost swipes your heads as you manage to dodge it in a nick of time. The crazed teammate nearest to both of you is Polaris. And you have to admit, she is fast and deadly. She brings up the axe again and charges. You move to a defensive stance when you suddenly realize that she has already slipped past behind you. Aiming for your heads, she swings again!
Jaime, Van, Stardust
All of you step back as Jax coldly points you his Rifle. He is Confused so he definitely will shoot.
3...2....1! He pulls the trigger.
Hadrian, Jun
Your teammates definitely look busy. At the same time, Adel seems to be trying to recover from the Pain spell through Rinoa's lifepoints. The Trinity Sword is still embedded on her foot. What is the best thing to do?
Jax, Gemma, Polaris, Sho
(If you can reply atm ^__^ Feel free to attack any teammate you want, heal Adel, and do other outrageous stuffs.)

SWOOMP The sound of Polaris' blade meeting the air swept past his ears, just one breath away from kissing the skin of his neck.
Rayden thanked his favourite girlfriend Lady Luck for her mercy. If not for her graciousness his head would've been rolling on the ground for Adel to kick around as a soccer ball. Even if if he used his ass muscles to think instead of brains, he could easily guess that this chica swinging her axe like an executioner on drugs was in some kind of confused state, all thanks to Adel of course. The evil sorceress didn't take kindly to being outsmarted, the perfect role model for Hell's Fury from scorned women.
Just when he thought he had successfully dodged Polaris' attack, she was already aiming that massive axe towards him and Deo screaming murder in her intent...even if it was a confused intent.
"NO I can't die now! I still haven't reached my quota of babes!" He yelled, dropping to the ground by instinct. Without even thinking, he slid his feet to the side and entangled them with Polaris', pulling with all his might so that the charging female would lose her balance.
{Wait, you moron! What if that axe falls on your head!}
"Deo grab her axe if you can! Now!"

"V....Van this doesn't look good" Jaime's voice was trembling. They were about to be shot. By Jax. "Waaaa we better duck!"
She jumped to the side away from the direction of Jax's firing range pulling Van along with her. Stardust should be able to take care of herself, right? She's a SeeD. Van and her were Opps,they had to cover for each other.
"Hey Van." She said urgently, shooting glances at Jax in case he decided to kill them again. "Didn't they say a cure for confuse would be a good hit on the head? Maybe we should knock him out..."

Yes, she was well aware the rest of her teammates were in trouble, some were in confusion by the way they were acting, the others were targeted by the confused ones. But there was something else that demanded her immediate attention right now.
The Trinity Sword, stuck on Adel's foot. The Adel who's floating in the air beyond reach. This would be the right time to get it back while Adel was concentrating on healing from whatever she was suffering from.
But she was floating! She couldn't touch Adel with the tip of Tien Nu even if she tried. How was she gonna get to it?
"D'arcell." She called out to Hadrian, who was the only other one standing near. "We have to get the Trinity Sword...how can we reach it?"

He sneered at the sight of the two Opps on the floor, cowering together in the corner. Taking slow deliberate steps towards them, he slowly began to reload his weapon. As he did this, he laughed, "You're pretty quick on your feet...for a couple of Opps." Casually, he inserted a new magazine of Pulse into his rifle.
"But let's see if you can dodge this. See this shiny thing I have?" He smiled, enjoying the power he had over their pitiful existences.
"It can do about 100 rounds in....oh....30 seconds." He grinned, "Most people don't believe me when I tell them that. I guess this is the only way to prove it....it's a shame that you'll be dead though." He laughed maniacally for a few seconds, then suddenly stopped.
"You'll be the first one." He lifted the rifle, aiming right between the blonde girl's eyes. "What was your name again?" He shrugged, "Oh well....I guess I'll never kno---"
J-A-I-M-E.
"What the hell?"
ADEL...Don't let her control you anymore.
Angrily, he wrapped his finger around the trigger.
Fight it! Fight back! Fi-----!
He felt dizzy the world was spinning around him until-- "Aaghhhh!"
It was like he had been thrown into a lake and then struck by lightening. Snapping his eyes open, Jax found himself gazing back into the eyes of the two Opps, bewildered at the sight of the rifle in his hands, now pointed at his fellow teammates.
What the fuck am I doing?
Staggering towards the two girls, he reached out to pull them from off the floor.
"Oh God..I'm sorry! I'm so sorry! I--I don't know what the hell happened to me!" The girls just stared back at him, frightened, still looking at the loaded weapon in his hands.
Jax followed their gaze and almost leaped. "No! I mean---it's the real Jax! It's me, I swear to God. Ok..good now we can--"
Suddenly, he was thrown back into the wall by a huge Confusion spell.
He started to spin in a circle, hands stretched out like an eagle.
Everything was becoming so.....yellow.
Jax giggled.
Mellow Yellow...

Deo barely noticed the gigantic axe swing over his head, nicking off a few hairs in the process.
So that's Sorceress Rinoa huh.... mmmm she looks even better in real life
"heh.... it's Rinoa." Deo gleefully turned around just as Polaris was about to swing her axe again.
"Deo grab her axe if you can! Now!" Rayden shouted at him.
But it was too late. Blood splashed across Deo's chest as Polaris nearly cleaved it in two, leaving a deep but unfatal gash. In his surprise, Deo had quickly lit the bomb he was holding in his hand as a reflex and as he fell, the bomb flew out of his hand and rolled right underneath Stardust's feet. Polaris stood over him, meaning to finish what she'd started.

Blaze gripped Gemma by the shoulders and shook her like a maniac. "WHAT THE HELL DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING!?!" She shoved Gemma to the ground. "Are you on their side, are you a mole?!?" She brandished her claws and held them to Gemma's throat before quickly realizing that she was confused.
HAH Only confused? All you have to do is attack them and they go back to normal. This is all Adel has up her crossdressing sleeve?
She punched Gemma in the stomach but it didn't seem to cure her.
Huh?
Blaze punched her again but Gemma's eyes continued to glow an eerie yellow. Blaze was starting to get irritated. She had to go after Adel, and Gemma was only getting in her way.
"Pain" She growled, holding up her hands to Gemma's face. Gemma quickly became blind, silenced and poisoned simultaneously. "That'll take care of you for awhile."
Just leaving her there, Blaze ran towards Adel again, blood still pounding in her ears from that head bashing she had recieved earlier.
"FIRAGA!" she screamed, directing the blast towards the sorceress's foot.

Ahhh sorry this took forever!  I was always exhausted from work, but not this time! *is in RP mode* --------------------------------------------------------------------- Stardust didn't know whether she would attack Jax or not, but letting him loose like that obviously meant trouble. "Snap out of it!" She felt her head ache as she shouted pointlessly at the confused Jax. She took a step forward when something rolled over her feet. Who in the world...?!"Dammit!" Her body reacted instinctively and she ran for Jax, spearing him as far as she could from the lit bomb. She turned her head to look if Van and Jaime did the same when the bomb exploded with a tremendous bang, the impact chucking everyone that was in its range. |

This sucks helluva lot, Hadrian thought, seeing the state of everyone right now.
His eyes wandered behind Jun who was asking him about the way to get the Trinity Sword. Trinity sword...trinity sword...Must pull trini...Blaze....Firaga?
A Firaga spell dashed past Hadrian then crashed on Adel, setting the sword and her foot on fire. He swung his gaze from Adel back to the spellcaster when suddenly....
"Sh*t!" He pulled Jun towards him and cast his back on the flicking thing near Stardust. "A bomb!" He held Jun tighter as the bomb went off, hurling them to the ground
