The burning and sizzling of the acid against Histe's skin acted like a drug. She was drunk on her own magic, which could have been a good thing had she not been using it against an opponent who wished to best her. But like all drugs she was about to come down from her high because the rain was already coming to an end. Her thin tail flicked back and forth, slinging acid against her sides as her pale eyes watched the unicorn she had been taunting moments before. She hated the waiting and almost allowed her legs to carry her toward Circuta so the fight would be continued, but she could feel Merikh in her mind calming her and so she waited. At least until the mare spoke and made to leave the battle field.
What? Did she really think that Histe was just going to let her leave. No, no, it certainly didn't work like that. One of her ears rotated back as Merikh moved from his place behind her to get a better vantage point. Histe ground her teeth against one another, growing irritated at the pain she inflicted upon herself but that irritation she would nurture until it turned into anger then rage and she would use that rage to smash the unicorn into a bloody pulp in the middle of the battlefield.
She began to move then because she was not going to just let her get away. "Don't run." She called out to the mare. "The fun's only just begun. I haven't drawn enough blood yet." "Kill her. Destroy her. She is beneath you." And the voices of her parents were back, echoing in her head as she trailed behind the unicorn, her strides increasing in length so as to close the distance between them. Histe fell into silence, the only expression on her face a twisted smile that promised pain when she finally closed the distance. "She deserves to DIE."
Oh! But the mare had a surprise in store for her that was very unwelcome. When Circuta stumbled Histe threw her weight forward, her hooves driving into the now muddy ground and finding purchase as she launched herself toward her, and it was the same moment that Circuta thought to attack Merikh. The cougar through himself backwards so that her hooves would miss his head, but he did not miss the hit entirely. Sharp hooves came down on his front left paw and through her bond with him Histe could feel the intensity of the pain she had wrought on him. It propelled her forward, but she could not protect her companion from the unicorn's horn and she felt, again, his pain as the tip of her weapon sliced through his flesh.
"Now! DO IT!" She screamed mentally at the cougar who then screamed, releasing his paralyzing ability on the mare who had just attacked him. Histe continued hurtling through the mud, fully intent on slamming the full weight of her body into the unicorn not caring what the outcome of it would be on her own body so long as the unicorn lay broken in the mud.
No one hurt her companion but her and she would do well to remember it if she lived. Above them the clouds had already begun the clear and the moon light shone down on the demons below.

Histe follows after Circuta when she makes to leave the battlefield. The rain has stopped at this point. When Circuta stumbles Histe throws herself into a gallop intent on taking advantage of the stumble and attacking her, but was not expecting her to attack Merikh. Merikh jumps back and his paw is caught under Circuta's hooves. He is stuck where he is so he takes the cut from her horn. Histe tells Merikh mentally to use his Paralyze ability so Merikh does so by screaming at Circuta. Histe continues to charge Circuta after Merkih uses his ability intent on slamming her full weight into the other mare, careless of what injuries it might result in for herself.]
