It was hard on her shoulder, but Vass was keeping the pace of shots as high as she could. Two shots down immediately, she only had eight more to work with. Each was finding its target but, since the weapon wasn't a physical slugthrower, the shots only were killing one at a time. Granted, with Atlan at her back keeping his own pace with Commander Calderon she was at least safe from the horde making it to her. The others however were doing a far better job at killing the karking things, once more making her skillset quite..
Useless.
Five shots. Six shots. She wasn't missing it seemed but the swarm was growing, and she had a significant doubt they could build a corpse wall to block them before they all ran out of shots or overheated their weapons. Atlan's posture was firm as ever, but Caelag could tell the Gand was feeling uncomfortable with the growing situation. They needed a way out soon.
Seven shots, Eight. Nine. Ten. The power pack forming her clip was calmly released, leaving her without a gun. She gently placed it down, and began to move her hands towards her sword on her hip. Left hand on the scabbard, right hand on the hilt. The only way to disable the magnetic lock holding the two in place. She was being given no other options.
Calderon asked the both of them if they had a trick. She didn't want to do it, but she felt the lock disengage on her sword. It was no or never for her to prove useful in this fight with the bugs.
"One."
She drew her longsword, the force imbued blade glowing a bright yellow as it left the oricalcum scabbard holding it to her side. Her hand went to support the other, holding the weapon firmly with both grasping it firmly, lowering the weapon down to her right side. She quickly swung the weapon upwards, bringing it up overhead and striking the ground, causing a spark. IN an instant her sword was wreathed in fire, like a blazing inferno confined to the weapon itself. The corpses were piled enough to cover most of the ground in roughly line perpendicular to the walls. So with a swing from one side to the other, she let out an arc of fire, connecting with the bugs' bodies and igniting them.
She outstretched a hand and lifted it up, forcing through her Fire Shaping the small flames to enrage into the closest thing she could imagine, a wall of pure fire and energy. She had no idea what it looked like, only that she could feel the heat, both from the firewall she was creating, and the burning inside her. She would be useful, even if she had to burn this entire purella colony to the ground to do it.
