Selene sucked in a breath upon seeing the grotesque sight, feeling disgust wash through her at the writhing mass of flesh, blood and tentacles. And to think that they found her? Something must have leaked, she knew she wasn't infallible despite the rumors that no one ever knew what she looked like. She heard Jasper's muffled scream just as the guards took on the tentacles attacking Jasper, and darted towards the main body. To think that they're this desperate to take me down... And whoever ordered this even deigned to attack in what was supposed to be the neutral grounds between humans and demons. But who could have had such riches to be able to entice these demons into pursuing her? She glanced up at the top of the head to the body of the young girl, narrowing her eyes as she ducked and leaped away from a tentacle that lashed out at her. The most vulnerable part of this monster was that torso, with this type of demon. The girl who was merged at the top - her head would have to be cut off or her heart stopped. It was at times like this that the speed that she was really needed, as she almost couldn't advance with the tentacles that lunged at her.
The tentacles had no eyes, but they seemed to have some degree of independence from the girl, and she decided to test something out. "You want this, don't you?" She said coolly, violet eyes calm and glacial as she sliced across her arm, flicking the blood to the far side away from Jasper. The red fluid splattered against the wall, a dark carmine. Meeting the monster girl's eyes dead on, she smiled faintly as the tentacles greedily rushed towards where the blood was. It either sensed through sound or scent... "Jasper. Get to safety now," she didn't look at him as she commanded him to leave. "Take your guards with you." Jasper and his guards would only be more targets for the monster to attack, and if it had any degree of intelligence would use them against her. I should have been more prepared. She could have just taken down the girl's head with a clean shot if she had her guns with her. Now she had to weave around these tentacles to get to her with her knives, and the torso wasn't exactly defenseless - the arms had long and threatening claws. Better get to work, then... She moved back and stabbed at one tentacle, ripping through the flesh as she sharply drew the knife down. With the demon poison that she coated the weapons with this should slow down the healing process.
