What place?

Nerissa continues to be cautious of the room but leaps up to Moka regardless, cutting at the chains and easily breaking them with Iaito, catching the pinkette, and landing with her safely.

Nerissa looks down at Moka resting in a princess carry, nudging her with her own forehead. "Moka... Wake up."

Moka stirs and her eyes flutter, awakening with a start. "Ah!-Wa... I... Rissa!?!"

Nerissa nods, continuing to hold her.

Moka hugs the young vampire, "You're safe!" she exclaims happily as if she'd not just been tortured minutes earlier.

Unfortunately, their reunion is interrupted as steps from the entrance of the room echo out, causing Nerissa to rapidly turn and face them.

Kuyo "I hope I am not interrupting anything, I wouldn't want to disturb your last moments with each other." he states, flames already beginning to form around him.

Nerissa scowls, "You will die, dog." she says after walking to the side of the room and gently placing Moka down in a safe spot.

Kuyo "I won't go easy on you this time!" he shouts, immediately turning into a flaming fox. However, his transformation isn't done yet... His fox form stands upright, the flames coalescing around him and covering him from view... When he becomes visible again he's changed, now looking like a handsome man with four tails and fox ears. "This is my ultimate form... Not many have ever witnessed it, even less still alive today."

Nerissa pierces her offhand with a fang, drawing blood and forming a ruby claw on her left hand, "Come." his all she says, preparing to dodge any ability he plans to shoot at her.

Kuyo pushes his palm towards Nerissa, foxfire shooting at her and hitting the wall behind her as she dodges, melting it into red hot slag that drips to the floor dangerously. "Why are you running!? DIDN'T YOU SAY TO COME?" he roars, his tails swirling nad launches a powerful circle of fire at her.

Again she dodges, but the walls of the room are hit again and causing the roof to shake ominously. Kuyo doesn't seem to care though, continuing to launch explosions that rocked the foundations of the building.

Nerissa spots some kind of modified sprinkler system that had presumably been used to torture Moka, she forms mist wings and leaps to it while dodging Kuyo's attacks, stabbing a claw just under it and causing water to rapidly spray out at Kuyo, causing steam to fill the room as it hits him.

Using this, Nerissa cushions her feet again, Kuyo's angry shouts clearly giving his position away. She quickly steps towards him, pushing Iaito into his vague position and feeling some resistance, as well as hearing a pained groan.

*BOOM!*

Kuyo causes an explosion underneath him, flinging Nerissa away and clearing the steam momentarily. The sprinkler system still spraying at him, he moves out of it while firing more projectiles at Nerissa, a deep wound sitting on his shoulder from where she'd stabbed him.

He channels some kind of orb before throwing it upwards, it looks like a miniature sun as it slowly hits the ceiling, melting the stone before exploding with a huge bang.

*Booooom!*

*CRASH!*

With that final attack, the ceiling finally gave way, the compound crumbling atop them and burying everyone within.

Nerissa is buried, but she is more worried about Moka and Yukari as she digs herself out. She lifts a large boulder off of herself and tosses it to the side, Kuyo already floating in the air and grinning down at her.

Kuyo "How's that? Your friends are dead, you going to cry?" he asks mockingly.

Nerissa sends a furious glare at him and launches herself towards him, Iaito and her claw prepares to cut him down.

Kuyo opens his arms our wide, a wave of fire exploding from his form and heading towards Nerissa, she throws herself behind some debris and feels the heat wash over her, managing to not get burned.

Kuyo then runs up and kicks the boulder she's hiding behind, launching her away and knocking Iaito from her hands.

Nerissa glances up and pushes her hands to the floor, causing ruby spikes to erupt from the ground and attempt to skewer the monster, only to have him fly way above them and send more firey bolts at Nerissa... She leaps out of the way, feeling feint from how much blood she'd used, all the while trying to form ruby claws.

She isn't able to though, instead just leaping at Kuyo and punching him in the face, bringing back down to the ground where she sends a few more strikes at him. He dodges and blocks a few but quickly realises he's no match in hand-to-hand combat against her, electing to fly high and continue shooting fire at her.

*Rumble*

Some debris nearby is lifted by an invisible force, Moka and a weak looking Yukari crawling out of it. Nerissa's eyes light up at them still being alive, dodging another firebolt and heading towards them, deciding to trust the headmaster's words and hoping she'd not been betrayed.

Moka "Rissa!?!" she gives a startled shout as the young vampiress rushes over and grabs her Rosario, it coming off with a clink.

*BANG!*

An explosion of energy knocks Nerissa and Yukari to the ground as the sky turns red and ominous... An army of bats seem to come from nowhere and surround Moka, somehow making her breasts and butt bigger as they surround her.

A moment later they begin peeling away from her body as if Moka were molting, red slitted eyes are revealed along with white hair... A stern expression both had never seen on their friend's face before...

Kuyo glares at Moka, slightly fearful at the energy she was giving off, "True Vampire..."

Moka looks around before eventually locking eyes with Nerissa, "I don't know what you are, but you are no vampire." she states.

Nerissa ignores her words, not knowing if they were meant to be insulting or not. "Moka?"

Moka turns to Kuyo and cracks her knuckles, "And you... It's time to return the favour!" she shouts, dashing to him at ridiculous speeds. "KNOW YOUR PLACE!" she exclaims, delivering a powerful kick to his face, sending him flying into a large pile of stone and whatever else remains of the compound.

She isn't done yet however, walking over to Kuyo's broken body and pressing a foot against his face. "Any last words?"

Kuyo growls "Yeah... FUCK YO-" his surprise attack is stopped when Iaito's blade penetrates his eye, killing him instantly.

Moka turns and sees Nerissa, her breathing heavy from her fight and recovering from having just thrown Iaito. "No mercy." she states, bringing a fanged smile to Moka's face.
