The magic was definitely bizarre, but Alicia's biggest problem wasn't with these weird painting people. Erin was still the biggest threat and Alicia ran for cover from the mages attacks while unloading some bullets at her. Erin was still probably as fragile as a human, after all. It's not as if it was ever a high priority to take Erin alive, but little could be done for it now. However, the corruption meant that Alicia's holy magic would at least have some proper affect to inflict damage, finishing emptying her clip by firing a holy bolt of energy before she took cover to reload.
As she looks around the crowd, she sees a few people of note. One is a heavily muscled man with a thick beard. Normally someone like him wouldn't attract Seres' attention, but she can distinctly smell Melissa's perfume on him. Next is a dark skinned man in a business suit, with long hair and pale white eyes. He does little, but he has an otherworldly aura to him. Finally, she sees a woman fresh from exercise, who smiles sweetly when she sees Seres looking at her.
Erika is quick back to get back to her feet, though slightly slower than she might have been at the start of the fight. Still, she is with it enough to lock in a rear choke hold this time, moving her right leg in front of Tina's to force her down to the ground. This also has the effect of her breasts pressing up against the other woman's back and she rubs against her slightly, possibly because of her working in the hold to apply more force and possibly because it does feel kinda nice. "I SAID," she barks, "TAP!"
Asking around, she's directed to the gym, where she finds a small crowd watching a fight between Erika and another woman. The fight ends, and Melissa finds Sully in the crowd, not far away from Seres, actually.
She struggles against his grip, pawing at anything within reach and turning her neck in an attempt to reach his arm. Seeing Chelsea turn one of the other paintings into a liquid paste, she quickly thinks better of using her muzzle to bite at them. Finding her feet, Rebecca partially undoes her transformation, shifting to somewhere in-between man and beast, using her humanoid arms and claw-tipped hands to push and tear at her assailant. (Guessing you meant Chelsea, and not Erin, wielding the bat)
"Hell yes." Danny grins like an idiot. His length isn't particularly, but it's very long, quickly growing fully hard in her hand.
James used his infernally enhanced speed and reflexed to duck out of the way of the fireball, also using a bit of force to alter its path up and away from him. If it didn't work, he hoped the shield he had cast still had a bit of energy left after taking the hit from the demon.
Finally, Erika feels two taps on her wrist. There's a smattering of applause, and Erika realises that the bout drew a crowd.
"Uuuuh... I should have asked for his phone number." Melissa groaned as she entered the gym, spotting Seres nearby Sully. I can't let her see me approach him. That'll just give her more things to tease. The sexy milf pondered inside her head as she hides behind the crowd. Wait, I can use my wind magic! Hopefully we aren't forbidden from using them outside of work. She thought to herself as she silently channels her magic toward Sully, using the wind to convey her message, "I have the permit. I'll be waiting outside the gym." Before slipping out, hoping Seres wouldn't spot her.
(Whoops) Easily, she tears through the creature, and it too collapses into paint. The heat stings James' face a little, but he's able to redirect the fireball away from him. As he looks back to Erin, however, he sees her being riddled with bullets, falling backwards, a holy bolt tearing through her chest on her way down, though she's likely already dead. Chelsea finishes off the last of the painting creatures with her bat, and finally the hall is silent once more.
@moonblack As the fight ends, Seres notices the man with Melissa's scent turning and leaving. Outside the gym, he sees her, grinning at the sight. "Ready to go?"
That's... Melissa's perfume, I believe. Friend of Melissa? Or more than just a friend? I'll ask her about him later. Maybe tease her a bit, too. Just then she noticed the MILF arrive in the gym. And thinking of, there she is. She gave the woman a nod in acknowledgment, but otherwise left her alone, focusing her attention on the other people there. One was a dark-skinned man with an odd aura to him. She made a mental note of him. Last was a busty woman. Seres returned her smile and moved closer to her. “Hello, there.” She tried starting a conversation.
Finally, freed, she spends another few precious seconds the demons could use to escape turning back. But hoping to make up the time lost, Rebecca digs her claws into the floor, scraping it as she takes a solid stance, before bounding after him with great leaps. So entangled during her fighting with the defeated painting her fur has become covered in blotches of paint.
Alicia seeing things start to calm down, stepped out of cover to approach Erin's body after reloading...then fired two more rounds into her head just for good measure. You could never tell with these things. However, her face did not look in anyway pleased while doing it, much more serious, reflecting her militaristic training ingrained into her. "...you get it now, don't you? You understand what these things are? Why meeting them halfway isn't a choice? There's no room in this world for humans and demons together."
James looked at the carnage around him, the stench in the air assaulting his nose, an acrid combination of blood, sulphur, burnt gunpowder and ozone from his lightning spells. He didn't have much time to ponder the situation, but started to sprint after Rebecca.
Rebecca and James burst out in pursuit of the demon, but find it nowhere. It's seemingly disappeared. The search becomes untenable, as the phone given to the group by the driver begins to buzz. Checking it, they see that it reads: Police on their way
Erika lets go of the choke as soon as she feels the taps, though she still remains on top of Tina as she looks up and around to see the gathered crowd. She lets out an almost wistful sounding sigh. This is probably as close as she is ever going to get to a big fight venue ever again. Even though she does not regret her choice, she still would have liked to have been given a chance at a championship at least once. Leaning her head down, panting for breath, she whispers in Tina's ear. "So what are the odds of the three of us finding a more private place to roleplay out what happens to cute little agents who lose to the kinds of demons who fight in their underwear?"
"Not bad. How long has it been since you've gotten this kind of attention?" Nadya continued to rub her hand along his shaft and moved her head down to slide her tongue against the tip of it.
