Sailor Venus: hp 75, mp:58

*Sailor Venus reeled from the punch. But having some experience in fighting thugs, she gritted her teeth and quickly shook off the shock of the impact . Then, she did a few backflips to get herself some distance from the thugs.She then took a defensive pose and smiled brightly.*

Sailor Venus:  Well, that punch was nothing. I am ready for more.

notes: sorry for the shortness.
note2: I hope you don't mind that I attacked at that part... sorry if I wasn't supposed to do so.

thug2:hehe, done doing circus backflips, lady?

*Sailor Venus's turn*

Lucia:oww.... go get them! They deserve to learn a thing or two.

*note:i consider the backflips only a reaction

note: besides, um... it ( the backflipping) was not an attack against anyone.  It was just to get some distance. or... what should i do in future posts? note: you can decide if the thugs dodge the attack or not. I know that her enemies could dodge the attack.

Sailor Venus yells:Venus!


 * this causes a large glowing symbol of Venus to appear and unleash a flurry of yellow sparkles. The sparkles appeared to place  orange  lip gloss onto her lips. Sailor Venus quickly kissed the palm of her  left hand, forming a  glowing yellow heart. *

Sailor Venus then Shouts: Love and Beauty Shock!


*she threw the heart and it  went around her, multiplying into several hearts, then back into one large heart that was supposed to hit her enemies in an explosion of yellow light.*

*note: i know, but when you told me that you "attacked" i thought you were referring to the backflips, that i know that are not an attack. (You didn't attack in the other post)

Thug:aaaaghhh *critical 22hp* *defeated*
Thug2:ughh *14 hp received*
*Venus looses 12 mp*

The remaining thug stands up.

Thug2:that was... intense...

The thug goes near Lucia and punches her in the face.

Lucia:nnnfff... *8 damage received*
Thug2:but not enough, pretty face! hehe
Lucia:you will pay for that!

She puts her hands together and one of them glows, then she moves that hand and points to the thug.

Lucia:Arcane Bolt! *shoots a light beam to the thug*
Thug:gaaah *17 damage received* *defeated*
*Lucia looses 8 mp*

VICTORY 12xp 8lxt

Lucia:*pant* *pant* that would... teach them....

Lucia:*recovering* yeah... we need to walk a little for it... oh well, while we find more of those guys, let's try and use more our fists, i mean, to not exahust our magic. Hey, how did you think i fared on battle?

*note:yeah, with items and resting. But that's when you find a place.

* note: Understood.

status: hp and mp unchanged from previous post

Sailor Venus: You did great but try and get some distance. Be more observant. I also have to be more like that too. We were both attacked. We can't be complacent. Those thugs seemed to be hinting at indecent things , severe injuries and death... I will not let you experience that kind of thing while I am here. 

*She follows Lucia and has a determined look on her face.*

Lucia walks along

Lucia: yeah... but hey, we are magical warriors, I guess thay can`t do anything against us, right?

Sailor Venus: Well,  we do have powers. But powers do not make us invincible. We can still be attacked. I remember that  some of my friends were knocked unconscious once. I had a hard time battling my foes but in the end, I did it. In any case, be careful.

* Sailor Venus continues to walk but is cautious. she also fakes laughter and smiles to  make any would-be attacker underestimate her.*

Sailor Venus: hp 75, mp:46

Three more of those boys appear. one behind and two in front of you.

Thug3:hehe, guys, i have their backs
Thug:well, ladies, don't think that what you did to our partners will go unpunished.
Lucia:gah, there are more!

ACTION

Sailor venus's turn

*Note:to attack an enemy behind you, you have to turn your character and then attack. When you do this, you show your back to the other enemies that you were looking before attacking that character.
*Note2:an attack from the back usually takes out more of your health, so it is recommendable to finish the enemies behind you only if there are more that you have in front of. (It doesn't matter if it's only one and is enjoying himself punching)

Sailor Venus: Yes, I can see that! We need to fight back!

*Sailor Venus kicks one of the thugs in front of her. Then, she swiftly kicks the other one. she isn't aware of the thug behind her.*

Sailor Venus: hp ??, mp:46

Thug:ughh *8 damage received*
Thug2:agghh *4 damage received*

Lucia punches one of the thugs.

Thug2:greegh *8 damage received*

a thug comes near lucia and punches her.

Lucia:puaaghh, not in the face! *6 damage received*
Thug2:now you two are every pretty girl that rejected me!

the second thug punches venus in the face.

*A big bruise was on Sailor Venus's nose and left cheek.  Her nose felt like it was swollen. Sailor Venus was feeling the pain. but she forced herself to remain standing. She  felt tired but she didnt give up. Instead, she stood and gritted her teeth. then, she swiftly backflipped and stood a few feet away from him.*

*Then,  breathing hard, * Sailor Venus yells:  I won't let you hurt Lucia! 

*she then tried to see if there was a way to get some distance or shelter.*

Sailor Venus fell toward the floor, but she reacted quickly and used her hands to maneuver her body backflip onto an area without any thug nearby.Sailor Venus felt a throbbing pain on her back. She was sure that there was a nasty bruise or cut there. Lucia was also nearby.

Sailor Venus: Thanks for the warning, but be careful ,yourself!
