Minato, Shef, and Yuki((Just realized Shef
knows that the Unflappable Shinobi's name is Andreaz, so I'll be referring to him as such now.))
Shef: 5, Hyper[5]
Yuki: 2, Hyper[5]
Andreaz: 4
Aurelius: 3
Canan: 3
Yuki this place is giving you some real bad vibes so you decide to bail. You're not going to just run, oh no, that's what they'd
expect you to do and Yuki knows (What? You're a goddess! You can totally say that!) what dastardly traps they have in stall. No, you're going to charge, charge head on, get hit, and get thrown the fuck out. You'll make sure of that. It'll be like one of those mangas! They'll think they did a real good thing, gloat a bit even and then you'll get up, dust yourself off and smile, smile and explain
this is all part of your plan. You're gonna do that smart shit, that thinking shit.
As with anime and pro-wrestling you're gonna have to really sell it, and sell it you do. You rush forwards, chainsaw grinding a trail of sparks behind you as black arrows streak out in a spreading V-formation. There's method to your madness here, the chainsaw? It's going to hit the torpedos even if they don't first blasting your forwards. There's no getting out of your trap easily, they're gonna have to throw you out or blow you through the damn wall and you'll be dragging Canan through it if it comes down to that. The formation meanwhile spreads out your arrows, keeps everything from clumping together, makes it that much harder to blow it all away.
A torpedo leaps from the ground slamming into your chest.
Noise. Heat. Pain.
That one actually hurt. This girl's got some serious firepower.
Your ears are ringing. You're a bit out of it, still reeling from the impact really. You see unfamiliar faces looking down at you, keeping their distances keeping out of the fight. Ah. You're on the pavement, or rather a trench your body gouged into the pavement a good ways down the street, the opposite side of the street.
She must've detonated the entire fusillade there. You're hurt, badly so but you can heal so y'know it's more just a minor inconvenience honestly, and more importantly you're not in the fortress no more. Fortress is across the road, a fair ways away actually (it's a diagonal path) and at the top of the ice-cream parlor. If they're gonna torpedo you you're gonna get a helluvalot more warning and have a lot more space to work with. Oh also, you do still have about two-thirds of your black arrows active still. Can't really sense their surroundings but you can tell which ones are active and what kinda terrain they're traversing. Vaguely. It's all hazy, all touch and feel. But you do sense, you do feel. You've half of what remains up onto the next floor of the fortress, hunting for Andreaz, the remaining half is still on the first floor with Canan. You got no idea where either of them are but well you can just canvas the place till you find them~
No more attacks are coming from the fortress. For now at least.
Shef you, well, you can't see shit. You do hear shit though, you hear a table slam against a cached portal, its passage blocked by the forcefield along its rim. You hear footsteps, a rustle of fabric, and then, an explosion. It came from above, the fortress most likely. That is not the problem. It's the noise, the volume. Discordance, drowning out all else. A brief window of opportunity, to do something without being heard. Was this their plan all along? What are they doing now? You can't tell. But something,
something tells you they're not attacking. Call it intuition, call it instinct, call it some blind foolhardy guess, but you don't think they're attacking. The table kick, it's just a probing attack and they're still in front of you, somewhere near Minato's position.
...You need to move, now. There's an attack, you don't know what but you can't stay standing where you are right now.
So Minato, the guy just fucking kicks the table at Shef as you help him get the fuck off of you. There's this big fucking explosion somewhere above and the guy just slinks behind you, well least the guy ain't on you right now.
So you turn around to make sure he's not doing anything funny but well, you know, spinning round, it's a bit of a journey in and of itself, and you? You've always believed that any good journey should be as much about the sights you see as the places you go and boy oh boy what a sight you see. Thighhighs and short-shorts, gold hair and long legs, chest's a bit on the smaller side but really it just adds to her tomboyish charm, her position doesn't hurt either, straddling that chair in a pose you might just save for later...
Well, she certainly has your vote.

Shef had to use a cached portal to block the table due to how little warning he had to block it.
