Before Tahlem could answer, Shyvana lowered her head to the both of them. "Get on" She said. The dead were closing in around them, and for Quinn and Tahlem, this was a dangerous place to be.

Xin Zhao heard the voice of Yukiko above all the fighting, and he was caught with surprise. He rushed over to her, hoping to find some answers. He knew he should be helping to dispose of the undead army, but they were closing in fast. He noticed she was in her Dragon gorm, so he had to strain his neck to look at her.
"Yukiko... why are you here?"
A few of the undead were walking towards them, and Xin Zhao quickly readied his spear to fight, going into a battle stance.
"... I suppose now is not the time. We must fight."
He tilted his head impatiently, before letting out his signature battle cry, raising arms.

Jarvan felt his anger continue to rise as Thresh threw away his offer of an honorable duel. He wanted to scoff at Thresh right back, throw its' offer right back in its' face. But, he couldn't for Belle's sake. He refused to accept that only one of them was going to make it out of this situation. This was the first time he had felt this way for anyone and he was not going to let it slip away without a fight. He took a deep breath to compose himself, it was time to use those speech skills he had been taught his whole life.
The prince crossed his arms in front of his chest. He needed to stall out time. He needed someone to come along and notice his situation and help him. "Surrender myself, to the isles? What does that mean exactly Warden? That I lose myself and become a mindless ghoul like you?"

Tahlem looked to Quinn and gave her a swift nod, ignoring Shyvanas remark for now. She looked...troubled. "Ranger Quinn, you look as if a ghost came back to haunt you. Are you alright?" He asked before switching his attention to the oncoming horde. They were that tough breed that came from the outer walls..
Tahlem then looked to the other 10 soldiers. They would surely be overwhelmed if the four departed. The undead were closing in, yes...but there is no retreat. Though he could just call it relocating...but the soldiers. He would not allow them to be overrun so the four could play coward.
He sighed and shook his head once at Shyvana.
" I will not leave my men behind, Shyvana."

Quinn was firing her weapon with a new strength in every trigger press, replacing the bolts almost robotically. General Tahlem's words almost seemed to go unheard, but she finally spoke even as Shyvana told them both to leave. The soft plink of her projectiles accompanied her clipped tone, "The dead are everywhere," she said simply, "Demacia's ghosts are coming back to haunt us all, so we must protect this city for those who live." Though the General was her superior, she did not feel it necessary to explain her thoughts. All she needed now was to continue to attack these poor corpses and the demons scaling the wall.
A sickening grunt met her ears as she let loose another arrow, a heavy groan as the monster fell. "What's your plan, Shyvana?" She asked, her eyes never leaving the dark alley as more figures approached.
Shyvana let out a growl as Tahlem turned down her offer... but said nothing more about it. She then turned her attention back to the undead horde and turned most of them to ashes within seconds. At Quinn's question, she peered down at the ranger. "Go, help the others escape." She simply said. "It'll be much easier for me to take these undead on. You, however, are not a front line fighter."

He said nothing more to Quinn about it, pulling his pistol and aiming at the undead. Firing shot after shot into the horde until a fireball went hurling at them. When most of the undead were torched with ease he chuckled a bit, that was easy. " Dragon beats zombie" He joked. He turned to the soldiers as this was an opportunity to regroup. " Sergeant, run now. I am ordering you to town square. Let anyone on your way know to pass that on, i want all soldiers in that square who are not fighting the undead."
The man gave a swift salute and the group moved in a formation past the undead, using the opening Shyvana had made moments before. Some of the creatures turned to chase them but would find they were too slow.
He turned back to Shyvana. " It appears that we will be...relocating. Quinn, Victus. On Shyvana and lets move out. Quinn, does valor know where the Prince is? He could be in danger for all we know."
He sheathed his sword and pistol and took a small running jump to climb up onto Shyvs back, then held his hand over the side to help the others up.

The brilliant flash of light created by the grenade caused Gillam to quiver for a bit, then to turn back to Valerian. "Good job! That gave us some good breathing room! Get more men over here to tighten the line!"
Gillam then turned to Poppy. "I am sorry, Ambassador, that was reckless of me...the rush of battle is coming back to me after those long years of being frozen, I guess I just overlooked that. Thanks for watching out for me."
"No matter the era, I am Demacian, through and through."
Yukiko's skin crawled at the sheer numbers of undead that were unleashed upon their position. The fur on her body standing on end as her bloodied maw dripped of the dead she had already slain, bloodied like her claws and tail. Few wounds were scattered on her long form, and seemed to have little effect on her.
"The Shadow Isles are invading."
She snarled towards the deceased assailants when Xin would let out his battle cry suddenly lunging forward to clamp her teeth down on one of the undead. As her large teeth sank into its deadened flesh, she pulled her head back and shook it violently until it fell to pieces across the ground.
"We fight together." She said to ensure him she would not be leaving him behind. Yukiko spit the foul liquid from her mouth as the wind current around her picked up once more, fueling the natural affinity for it more readily.

Quinn eyed Shyvana sharply, and for a brief second, she opened her mouth as if to say something. But the dragon was right, and she promptly held herself back. She knew that the flames of Demacia's half-dragon would work well against the corpses. She triggered one last arrow before making her way towards Shyvana to climb up onto her back, the scales warm beneath her palm.
At the question, she tilted her head. "No, the mist is too thick." Valor's own response was rather indignant, and he took off with a shrill shriek. "... but he says he will find him." He had seen the coast from high above, and a strange figure in the skies. It was not only moments later did he come swooping down to land upon Quinn's leather glove did her eyes widen momentarily. "There is a ghost wreathed in green and black, with a woman in chains. The Prince is... speaking with them." It had been distant, but Valor's eyes were sharp. He could not make out the features of any, but the apparel they were all wearing was evidence enough to their identities.

Victus was just slumped against the wall in shock.
"My clan...My house...My family...Gone. Who else is there to fight for?"
A ghoul tried to attack Victus in his grief ridden state, digging it's claws through the gaps between the plates on his arm. The Knight could not react. His cause was dying.
However, the Barbarian would not go down without vengeance. The Knight was in shellshock, but the Barbarian would pull Victus out. The Barbarian had no room for emotions, save for rage and hatred. There was only the shedding of blood and the now. And Now, there were foes, and these foes caused his pain. Like any animal, Victus sought to stop the pain by ending the source. He grabbed the ghoul and slammed it into the wall repeatedly until the head of the beast caved in.
Tahlem said something about leaving, and Victus snarled, cleaving the next ghoul in half at the waist.
'The foes are here though....FIGHT NOW! KILL THEM NOW!...no. Fight for the living.....'
The Knight asserted control again.
"For the living...Whatever is left of them." Victus mumbled.
Victus glared at the dragon. "Can you take three?"

((As of right now, The Grand Duelist is making a comeback..and Hell yeah I slept through a lot...Lil Fifi is on her way >:3))
Fiora nearly ran through the castle hallways, while she was away on a errand by the institute of war(The nerve of them to summon her)Demacia fell under attack. The Duelist was irritated at not joining the fray sooner. Almost instantly as she got outside the mist thickened around her. She scowled and drew her rapier.
"Tch, Fools, zhey dare challenge Demacia while Im around...?" She growled as she advanced through the mist, Firstly she needed to find the others and most likely reprimand them for not being Vigilant after hearing/Formulating the plan of course...

((If Lady Fiora is joining, so am I! Dani will exit herself if I am uneeded :3))
Dani awoke, the insane bloodthirst in herself rising. A twitch within herself noted the mist coiling around outside. And she immediately smiled, threw the covers and grabbed her weapons and clothes. It was a battle, which meant blood, which meant she could kill...to her hearts content.
"Dani wants to play..." She whispered giggling to herself.

Poppy turns to look up at the shout from above.
"I am sure Prince Jarvan can handle himself, but I believe someone should go and take a look at the situation he is in. I believe there may be a prisoner holding him back. You two, stay here and protect the citizens. I will see to the Prince's wellbeing."
She easily lifts Whomper up to her shoulder and turns to Gillam.
"Do not let your excitement and emotions take control of you in battle. They will only distract you and in the end cause your demise. Now, make your city proud mister Dunwall, and protect it's citizens."
She salutes Gillam quickly with her shield hand before rushing off to find Prince Jarvan. She decided to take a long way around in case her suspicions of a hostage were correct. Perhaps she could take the enemy by surprise...
