It throws him backwards, but he manages to prevent himself from falling.

Because that's totally normal.

Nicote doesn't mind too much of it.

Riley heads to Rhea's side, checking to see if she was okay. Thank you, Shade. he silently thanks his friend.

Shade still found it as a good chance and lunged again,wings spread and thrusting himself forward as he swung out,swinging strong blows toward him. Still,he refused to break his promise to Riley. He wasn't aiming to kill,at least he wasn't that is.His sanity was inching away faintly and he had to try and keep a hold on it as he swung out.

She's barely conscious- he hit her real hard.


He manages to hit him with some, but Zaire proves to be very, very fast. Inhumanly fast. This means he dodges more than a normal person can.

"Are you alright?" Riley asks Rhea quietly, "I mean, what an I thinking you're not alright. How can I help you?"

That scared Shade inside a bit but he used his own weight and dragon agility to dodge as well,sliding now and then but gaining balance fairly quickly. He spun and swung his tail as a low blow to the knee's,one wing spread in case to catch him if he dared jump over his tail.

She doesn't seem to realize he's there. her eyes are barely even open.


He half-trips over the tail but catches himself, and bites Shade's wing.

Shade yelped a little but used that to swing his weight,his tail reaching to wrap over the guys legs.

Riley gently takes her in his arms, planning on getting her to her cell without further injuring her. Maybe there was a medic around here somewhere? He winces as Shade gets bitten, wishing he could help both friends at once. You can't help both at once, okay? So just focus on one at a time... He felt torn though, wanting to help Shade - though he would probably just get in the way - and wanting Rhea to get better.
Focus on the one you can help. Riley reminds himself, moving Rhea softly so he was carrying her bridal style. He tried to avoid the fighting.
