Rhen had wandered around the diner making sure there weren't any life threatening injuries before warning people to go out the back and away from the street. She couldn't tell what exactly was happening in the streets but she was sure there would be something coming from the crack. She could feel the magic in the air. Once out of the diner herself, she sprinted towards the end of the street which was also the beginning of the town. Jumping over the debris on the ground and hopping over the cracks she spotted the back end of her bike. It was turned over but untouched otherwise. Stopping once she reached it, she knelt down opening the flap of the saddle bag and pulled out her neatly rolled scourge.<br/><br/>This was Rhen's favorite weapon that she had custom made by a warlock. It was enchanted with a current spell learned long ago. When in battle the scourge would glow a deep yellow, siphoning electricity from surrounding sources that would shock anything that came into contact with it. Since Rhen didn't have quick magic used for an attack she made sure to carry this weapon with her at all times. She latched it to its holster on her belt and continued further down the street looking for the others.<br/><br/><i>How much time has passed? </i>It felt like forever since she "spoke" to Celeste and she herself was becoming uneasy with the situation. She let out a low growl of frustration that was quickly silenced when she felt the crawl of Celeste's magic rolling up her leg and around her skin, she knew it was protection magic. Then saw the silhouette of the dream team through the thinning smoke. Just as she was about to yell out she heard the a group of screams coming from near the alley. She turned watching the group of stunned humans starring up at the best in disbelief. Their instincts to run for safety were certainly delayed. It wasn't until the sound of the gun that the humans stopped screaming and started running. Rhen pulled her scourge from her strap and flicked her wrist out sending the long leather tenticle unraveling to the ground. She whispered her activation chant, "Fortis fulgur, fortis fulgur, veni ad me," and the soft leather beamed with a faint yellow glow, pulsing as it pulled more electricity into itself.<br/><br/>Rhen's scourge was active, but the siphon was taking longer that she had. The beast rushed quickly at her and at this direct angle she wouldn't be able to wrap the whip around it in a way that made sense anyways. She knelt to the ground perched with once hand against the concrete, the other resting at her side. Counting the minotaurs steps, her heart faced. She was waiting for the last moment to dive roll out of its path. Though the beast was strong, it was also dumb and it wouldn't be too hard to out smart the creature. Just as the monster was moments away from striking distance, Rhen her a small voice cry out from her left and saw a young women hiding along the side of a car that was between the Minotaur and Rhen herself. This petite human just realized she was right in the path of the beast charge. Rhen abandoned her attack, and dove for the women with seconds to spare. The women flew backwards as Rhen collided with her but that left no time for adjustment. The minotaur clipped Rhen and sent her coasting through the hair. The hit itself was not direct, but the landing was certainly going to do some damage. After all, humans can't fly. The minotaur couldn't slow itself and crashed into the side of the bank wall leaving a massive hole. The bricks that once held the wall upright rumbled down on top of the beast pausing its attack momentarily.<br/><br/>Soaring through the air Rhen closed her eyes and braced herself for the free fall. When she didn't hit the ground she opened her eyes to see what had happened. She was frozen in air, confused until she saw a flash of someone coming towards her and then she suddenly dropped from the sky landing on top of someone.<i>Rivers! </i>She was impressed by his bravery and thankful for the assist. She sat up beside him quickly answer, "I think so." She honestly wasn't sure if she was fully okay, the adrenaline coursing through her veins could be hiding soreness from the hit she had taken. "Let's get behind this thing and out of its direct site." She stood up, helping Rivers to his feet. "Are you okay?" she wanted to make sure the weight of her body didn't land on Rivers wrong.<br/><br/>Just as Rivers and Rhen were back up and ready for action the Minotaur was breaking free. Rhen could here the animal force a breath violently through its nostrils with a loud, harsh sound. It was apparent that we were pissing this thing off and not any closer to defeating it this way.<br/><br/>Rhen quickly moved in front of Rivers incase it made a quick turn back towards them but instead she was left watching the Minotaur alter, shifting back towards Celeste and the others. It sulked appearing confused, stumbled a bit as it walk. It was possible it didn't spot them standing just ahead. Rhen stayed put assessing and planning her next move.
