The Change [open]

Neither Rachel nor Marco had any real trust in the medical situation they'd both been forced into. It seemed like they had been tricked and betrayed; and it meant that there were instantly a few more people crossed off their list of who they should trust when they escaped. In fact-- it left them at each other, it seemed, when they did escape from medical, two cockroaches slipping out of sight while medical was distracted from them.

Of course, this was compounded by the fact that several communications posts went up shortly after-- one announcing a Quarantine (thankfully they'd gotten out in time for that) and one announcing their abilities to the crew to warn them. And then things got worse-- Marco's morphing began to get weird, and Rachel... literally split into two.

This wasn't going well.

((ooc: As Blue's OOC post said, we need to make sure that only the people signed up for taking the two 'groups' (Nice Rachel and Marco in one corner, just Mean Rachel in the other) to Quarantine are the ones who actually do that. Other than that, feel free to try and do it! Tag under the header for whoever you want to thread with and feel free set the scene, and ours will enter in. :) ))

Yeah, it seems it can never be as simple or mundane as 'Hiccup is attacked by a squirrel', can it? But a shapeshifting berserker of all things. It's rather absurd. It was a bothersome overgrown feline... but it's exotic coat was fetching.

"We can't even take it's fur?" Astrid grumbled under her breath.

This time she would go on the offensive. With a snarl that guaranteed she had no intent on being knocked down a second time, she aligned the shield, putting the weight of not just her aching arm, but the entire left side of her body into it as she rushed Rachel to perform a shield ram. A attempt to disrupt the beast's movement, and, hopefully, daze it for another moment longer.

Astrid wouldn't be finished handing the cheetah a maw full of shield, of course. There was a plan. Following up after the ram, she was ready to overwhelm Rachel with shield, and behind its protection find an opening from the shield's circumference just so she could flip her axe and deliver repeated stabbing blows to the snout and cranium area with the end of the axe handle. Ouch.

Can't kill it, he said. Well there were other methods.
