Heart of Darkness [Active]

[vorpalrising.livejournal.com]

Character(s): Tear, Alice, and a load of Heartless.
Content: On her way to Nifleheim to rescue Belle, Alice finds that she herself needs to be rescued and swept under a rug to avoid spamming the plot. Luckily, who should arrive but Tear?
Setting: Central Station
Time: Shortly after Belle's voice post on the MB.
Warnings: Violence.

She didn't even know the woman's name, not really. She must have heard it at some point, surely, but it had been drowned out by the rushing in Alice's own ears. She was afraid, and hardly the hero type, so why was she even doing this? Because of her own time at the asylum, all those times she'd screamed and wrestled with the dark, and nobody had come for her? To prove to herself that she could be brave? Because someone needed help? She didn't know; perhaps it was all of them. She took the large knife from the kitchen and slipped out without a word to anyone, running to Central Station.

She hated trains, for a reason she couldn't yet discern, but this would be useful in getting there. She just hoped it wouldn't be too late by the time she got there to do anything.

With no response, Tear assumed the worst. The force field began to fade, and she assumed a battle stance. She swept across in front of herself, trying to keep the closest ones at bay so that she had time to cast again. Another cross-slash upwards, and she jumped back, closer to the girl, protectively.

"Pow Hammer!" she cried, lifting her staff from above as toy hammers began to rain down on the heads of the Heartless. It wasn't a strong attack, but hopefully it would stun them long enough. Taking the chance, she began to concentrate on the next spell. No matter what, she wouldn't lose her concentration, even if they lunged towards her... not before -- not until...

"Healing Circle!" the glyph beneath her and the stranger began to glow, radiating with magic.
