Panika realized in the chaos of magic that Cherise and who she presumed was one of the muscled guys retreating - the wyvern rider and the other muscled guy seemed to have conveniently vanished. Perhaps they were making the right decision here. Regardless, there was no time for Panika to run. She was too busy making sure she wasn't getting wrecked by her own spell. Panika couldn't find any place to hide behind but soon she found out the hail and lasers were actively avoiding her (probably because she cast the spell). Then she realized that the inquisitor she had been trying to stop with her spell had gone quite literally bonkers.
The power coursing through that lady was way too much for her body to handle. It certainly didn't help that the book was slightly damaged. Eventually, one of the lasers from the violet storm had struck the book and the energy from the anima magic was actually trapped in the book, and eventually what happened was light and anima magic began to fuse, in an unholy union that should not be freaking possible by any stretch of known magical theory, but there it was. Panika learned something new today.
And then Ray freaking shot a spell at the mixture.
Panika opened her mouth to protest, but what happened next literally took the words out of her mouth. "Um, ma'am, I don't think magic works that wa--" Panika blinked and shielded her eyes as a brilliance flashed before her and Ray; and just as she thought she was toast, the light faltered mere feet away from her, and then retreated back into some sort of reaction. What was left?
Nothing but a goddamn crater. Panika was silent for a while. Then she spoke.
"...I absolutely can't believe that worked. Man, if this kind of tomfoolery is what we're going to deal with, I'm freakin' glad we came out of that alive! Look, boss lady and one of her boy toys already retreated. They value their lives more than the money, and I sure as hell am inclined to agree!" Panika sighed and peered at the giant pit. It was also glowing cherry red.
"And why the hell is it glowing red?"
