Green Shade Group 2
Whenever one sense is gone, the other senses kick up a notch. As she was blind and her other powers were in lockdown, Flan's hearing naturally increased and she was able to hear what the kitsunes at the gate had said. Hoping someone was looking in her general direction, Flan began to sign. [1]
"No one ever likes potential usupers," Lizbeth said. Flan had taught all the DD and HDD how to read sign language when she first met them after they had shown her how to lock down her powers.
Flan signed again. [2]
Lizbeth laughed. "Actually, no we haven't. I usurped the throne from another usurper. If my history of Iewym is correct, the throne was usurped every six generations or so."
"Seven," Rhonabwy interjected. After a pause, he said, "Though none of the others ever had the help of a god."
"None of them ever had a god for a father," Lizbeth shot back.
Flan signed again. [3]
"That may be true," Alachia said. "But...is there anyone within range of hearing this conversation?"
Flan sniffed the air and listened before shaking her head.
"My sensors are not picking up any magical or electrical properties in the immediate area either," Nissa said.
"Good," Alachia said. "I have a feeling that if the kitsunes found Miss Rose out for what she really was--or what we were--then Miss Rose would be seen as an usurper."
Flan signed again. [4]
"Between mom, Uncle Broden, Aunt Dragon, Uncle Creighton, and Lord Avondale," Xink said, "I think the rest can be kept under control."
After a moment or two, the room filled with laughter

Demon Hunter Group 2 [5]
"Take on V formation!" Nogard yelled to the others. "Dragon's point!"
Once everyone had taken formation, the five dragons swooped over the demons. In waves, the demons were immersed in water hot enough to strip tissue from bone, flames, toxic smoke, acid, and diamond shards. [6]
The demons that were not hit in the first wave began to scatter. Some began to transform into their full demon form to retaliate while others appeared to be running away.
"Bank left!" Nogard yelled as she noticed the second group of dragons mimicking their moves with Lord Avondale in the lead. When the second group neared the ground, Wolf leapt clear of Dai and began clawing, biting, and ripping apart every demon he could get his paws on.
The second group of dragon weapon breath included blasts of psychic waves that made the affected demons attack their own, wind so strong that it caused demons to be thrown backwards into each others weapons, corrosive sludge, and supernaturally hot and stinging sand that corroded flesh and blocked all visibility. [7].
"Attack at will!" Nogard yelled after both sets of dragons had made two passes each. The fight, one sided from the start due to catching the demons off guard, was over quickly when the dragons began to include their teeth, claws, and horns with their respective breath weapons.
Having transformed into her anthro form for ease of mobility, Nogard was picking her teeth when she noticed Wolf approaching her and Dragon. "We're not here for souvenirs, put that down."
Wolf had been dragging the bloodied form of a tan bunny girl. Hefting the thing up by its ears, Wolf said, "This smelled of Rose. I figured Lord Avondale could question it."
"I think it's dead," Dragon said, poking the bunny girl with her tail. "I mean, look, Nogard's picking her teeth with one of it's arms."
Switching the arm around to scratch her back with, Nogard said, "And it's a good back scratcher too!"
The tan bunny girl moaned a little.
Arching an eyebrow, Nogard poked the bunny girl with its own arm--which Nogard did not remember snapping off, but apparently did. "Hey, you're supposed to be dead. Your arm's off, you're bleeding from a dozen different wounds and...was that your spleen that just fell out?"
"Will you three stop playing with that?" Lord Avondale said, approaching from behind them. "It's dead."
"It moaned a minute ago," Nogard said, poking the tan bunny girl with its arm again. Scratching one of her own bunny ears, Nogard said, "You know, it kind of reminds me of something."
"Really?" Dragon asked, looking at the bunny girl. "What?"
"Dunno," Nogard replied, flicking her ears a bit.
Dropping the tan bunny girl, Wolf looked around and smiled as Shalimar came up. Behind her was Wynn carrying a make kitsune with auburn hair and green eyes. "We found him near the ship port surrounded by a few slavers."
"He smells like Rose," Dragon said, catching the scent in a faint breeze. "Wait, ship port?"
"Yes," Shalimar replied, leading the way. "Dai's setting up some explosives right now."
"Pffft," Nogard said, lowering her ears for a moment. "Explosives are nothing. We're going to send the ship BACK to it's home base to blow up the planet."

[2] "How would you know? Haven't the Dynasty always had the throne?"
[3] "But Rose is not an usurper. She has a blood rite to the throne."
[4] "Well the ones we really have to worry about behaving themselves are not here yet. Hopefully when they do arrive they remain on their best behavior."
See my second comment because I only had the first half up yesterday.
