Masks 2

The berserker raging Fishmen, Lamprey Hands, and Artillery Shrimp rushed into battle, paying no attention to tactics or organization. They simply swarmed from all directions. The Car Crabs, under Ken's direction, were still locked in bumper car combat with each other and couldn't join the fray.

Interestingly, even the razorfish and barnacles swarmed the air bubble. They, unlike a few of the other aquatic creatures, could not float and simply flopped onto the ground.

As a result of this attack, the heroes started fending them off in a feverish melee. Finn protected Ken, slashing and hacking with her claymore (which occasionally sparked with electricity) while the Demon, Nocturne, and La Chat fended people off from attacking Coyote. At this point, the Demon was able to display her combat effectiveness by mixing expert swordplay with a constant barrage of electricity, fire, and ice shards. She also mixed shields into her spellplay, often deflecting attacks as she made her own attacks.

Sadly, neither Siren nor Theraea's taunts and traps worked, as Siren was too busy swimming around with her head in her hands screaming.

"Keep fighting!" shouted the Demon between swings of her sword. "We're here for you! Just keep fighti-AGH!"

A harpoon impacted itself in the Demon's left shoulder, but she kept on fighting with her good arm.

Meanwhile, a massive tremor rocked the temple as the chasm tentacles began to grow outwards. Something seemed mad that their pet was shaking off their leash...

The tentacles would be able to reach the air bubble now.
