Mercy turns up to fire her plasma beams at Proteus. He blocks her shots with his magic barriers. He's angry!

  Major Mercy
DIE.
HYEHEHAHAHAHEHAAAHA!!!
—Helen—
What!?

Coral
* The fuck!?

—Proteus—
You would lay a trap in the guise of parley!?
Have you no shame!?

—Polyta—
No!! We didn't--

—Proteus—
The DEPTHS to which you would sink!!

—Polyta—
Retreat--!

Proteus fires off an attack that explodes Nix as the girls run from the scene.

—Polyta—
Retreat!!

Coral passes Polyta a Bottled Homecoming.

Coral
* Polyta, here!!

She catches it.



Polyta uncorks the bottle and backons the girls to run to the portal that springs forth.

—Polyta—
Come on, go!


As Polyta and Nix pass through the portal, Girlbeast Alexi jumps to intercept Coral with her club raised.

—Girlbeast Alexi—
You're not goin' anywhere!

—Helen—
No--!

Helen pulls Coral away from the impact of Alexi's mgihty club.

Coral
* Wh--!!


Alexi is joined by the Silencing Knight in front of the rapidly dissipating portal, blocking the way through. Helen runs in the other direction dragging Coral with her, who reaches back and cries out.

—Silencing Knight—
......

Coral
* Helen--!!

—Helen—
Just RUN!!

Coral
* Helen, the portal!
* HELEN!!!

Hey hey, everyone! Apologies for the late page; hand troubles.

In any case, it's that time of year again! The Foreach reader survey is back. Just a couple of questions so we can learn about the folk who read the comic, nothing too long. We'd love for you to share your thoughts with us again.
