Down an empty ally light bent and was pushed away as a portal formed, displaying a flaming battlefield for a moment as two figures tumbled out. Both seemed to be teenage girls at a quick glance, but looking directly at them showed they were no ordinary girls as they stood up. The taller one had skin that was almost pitch black, except for where she was bleeding red from several wounds, and in many places a hard shell seemed to cover her skin. In one hand was a axe, the other a flail, and both appeared to be made out of energy as they glowed brightly with a blue light. The other girl was shorter, and wore what looked to be a black and red military style uniform. Around her torso was a bandoleer of grenade like objects, and on her left arm was a shield made of the same glowing blue energy as the dark woman's weapons.
"Damn it!" screamed Alsora as the portal vanished, and she then turned her angry eyes to Gina, "Bring it back!"
"No Alsora," Gina's voice was trembling with fear as she looked up at her former commander, "I can't let you fight against the Roses anymore! Don't you realize what you're doing?"
"They are going to destroy everything! How can you stand by and let them!?" with a primal scream of rage Alsora charged at Gina, bringing her weapons around to crash against the shorter woman's force shield, sending Gina stumbling back several steps.
The scene was repeated several times, Alsora stricking Gina's shield again and again as she screamed in anger. Gina was forced backwards slowly until finally she was pressed against the wall of a nearby building. Alsora brought her weapons up once more, but Gina held out her hand, sending Alsora flying backwards with a telekinetic shove. As Alsora climbed back to her feet with a growl Gina stood tall once more, "Just stop Alsora!" Gina shouted as a stream of water shot from her still extended hand, sending Alsora tumbling backwards out of the ally and into the street.
A car driving down the street honked its horn and slammed on its breaks as Alsora tumbled into its path, but it was too late. The car impacting Alsora was like hitting a large boulder. The front of the car crumpled as it was sent spinning away, and Alsora was sent back off the street to crash through a nearby glass storefront.
As Gina came running out of the ally Alsora stood up with a growl from among the shattered remains of the window, seeming no worse off from the series of events, "If you won't open the portal again Gina, I'll just make you open it!"
With yet another scream of fury Alsora jumped free of the store and charged Gina as the other girl braced herself for the coming blow.
