Physically, there would have been less warning or even no warning, and Lapine might have slammed straight through the barrier unknowingly. As it is she takes the blow 'on the chin-chin' and it rings her head a bit going through the suddenly appearing wall of black thorns. Or is it her head and not bones? Either way the sensation lingers a bit too long.<div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">OOC</div><div class="spoiler_body"> Roll body to see if the thing lasts. Need 5 hits for all the damage.</div></div><br/>Grey shouts that she'll wait a little bit before chopping the thing down. Which is probably more time than Lapine needs to run the distance. For somebody with lesser augs, the distance would have been a hard sprint, endurance wise. It's far less of one for the chromed Bunny, although nobody would find the scene she came upon a good one.<br/><br/>Pain would be a daring woman for the violence she does, and her punk jacket over a bare-breast, bare-crotch transparent red catsuit over a red leather bustier look isn't nearly enough armor for a good fight. A shotgun blast is going to tear through the armored clothing, and plenty of runners carry that or worse. It's definitely why she seeks to be face-to-face with her targets as little as possible. That and the very ugly cloak-like thing currently drinking something out of her body through long proboscid tubes.<br/><br/>It's not clear to Lapine if that thing made the now fifteen sword-bearing skeleton warriors around Pain, or if it's taking from her in exchange for letting her keep on going when by all rights those things should have had her on the ground unconscious from the strain of pulling that much mana.
