part 25 hey guys whats up, wanna help

Magpie raised her sword.
However, she got it kicked out her hand. Delphine swung her sword down on Magpie killing her. A second later Magpie woke up with a huge inhale like she was shocked. Delphine raised the sword again. Raven swiftly charged forward grabbing Magpie's sword. Delphine swung her sword down getting blocked by Raven with such force it made both swords shake violently. Raven tried to hold her sword back with a lot of strength however Delphine kicked her chest making her roll away twice. Raven grabbed the swords and started fighting her. Powder frantically looked around for any form of weapon. She ran up to the lab area grabbing some weapons to fight her with. She ran down the stairs. Seeing Delphine and Raven fighting each other. Magpie would help but no longer had a sword so there wasn't much she could do. Raven got kicked in the throat landing her on her back coughing. Delphine held her sword high preparing to swing down on her.
Delphine went to throw her sword down.
suddenly something wrapped itself round her wrist pulling her back a little. Delphine looked up seeing a long black whip she followed it back to Powder holding the handle looking a little shocked "that was a pretty good shot" Delphine adopted a look of anger "you little son of a bitch" Powder nodded "it's good now we know each other" Powder hit a button on the whip retracting the whip like an extension cord this pulled Delphine with it. Powder held out a metal pole she grabbed hitting Delphine in the face with it. She fell to the ground on her back. She kicked Powder away however she didn't fall down. Delphine jumped to her feet welding her sword. Powder started fighting her with the silver metal pole she was holding using it as a sword. Delphine managed to push Powder onto the stairs of the lab area this didn't seem like a problem however what she didn't realize was, she was being pushed right where Delphine wanted her. Delphine kicked her onto the lab platform then used her sword to cut the stairs connected to her platform and which was the only thing that stopped the lab from falling into the pit. Powder tried to run however it was too late gravity was against her. She and the platform fell into the pit. Powder rolled to a stop seeing all the gadgets and inventions clattering around her including a sword. She grabbed it and saw Delphine heading for the others she had to get back up there.
Powder saw Delphine going to the others.
She looked around her grabbing a small silver round device throwing it on the platform. It landed next to Delphine and seemed to clamp itself onto the ground with an electronic drilling sound. The top opened pushing up a little pipe that looked round the area focusing on Delphine. It fired a line of electric at her right shoulder holding her in place. Her movements were extremely slow as she tried to slice the device with her sword, so Powder knew that this was her moment.
Powder grabbed a sword.
She threw it at the cave wall watching it stick a few inches into the wall. She grabbed up another heavier looking sword running to the wall. She jumped on the first sword which jumped her upwards she flipped landing on the platform perfectly sword ready, Delphine laughed "you honestly think you can take me on I have killed thousands of people in my life times" Powder smiled "see the thing about me is I'm brilliant" Delphine laughed getting into an attack stance. Powder lifted her new sword and could see a ridge along the side feeling a button. She pushed it which made the blade of the sword have a huge electronic field around it. Powder smiled "let's go bitch" she charged forward, and they began sword fighting. Every time their swords clashed together sparks flew everywhere. Magpie jumped into the cave scooping up a sword jumping back to the platforms and fighting with Powder. Somehow Delphine was able to fight both of them at the same time. Raven started trying to think of how to kill her.
Raven knew they needed a weapon.
Raven jumped into the pit trying to find a weapon and found one on the ground. She looked up "hey Magpie, this'll help!" she threw it, meanwhile Magpie blocked a swing from Delphine and heard the clatter of what Raven had thrown next to her. Delphine grabbed Magpie's neck trying to strangle her until Powder kicked her in the stomach. Magpie used that distraction to headbutt her, she punched her in the stomach then the throat. Magpie threw herself backwards as Powder ran in continuing to fight her.
Magpie picked up the device.
Meanwhile, Powder got punched in the face and fell on her back trying to breathe. Delphine stood over her "you see you can defeat me, no one can defeat me not even your little friend over there" Powder shook her head laying against one of the barriers "then just kill me, fucking get on with it" Delphine raised her sword "you're not on the list, but that doesn't matter any more, I can't get any more bad luck" she went to swing down her however heard a voice from behind her "oi cunt!" she turned it was Magpie "let's finish this" however she didn't raise a sword she ran forward grabbing her almost like a hug however she pushed her against the fencing breaking through it falling down to the pit below. They landed with Magpie on top of her holding her down "don't forget to die" without warning Magpie exploded by the lighter grenade in her pocket this blasted her stomach apart, the explosion blew upwards into her chest which caused her arms and legs flew in different directions, her blood and organs were blasted everywhere. Delphine's eyes opened wide as her chest was blown apart. The explosion was so extreme it blasted her into the ground a little. However, somehow with her chest and stomach blown apart she was still alive and able to utter her final words choking on her own blood and organs "I'm... finally... free!" her head fell back as her eyes closed for a final time.
Raven went over to the area.
She looked up at Powder "do you think Magpie actually died from that?" they waited a second. Then Powder noticed something "no, she'll live" raven looked down seeing that the blood covering the walls and floor were beginning to move, they impossibly began to move upwards like the drops were stacking on top of each other. Raven heard a lot of cracking sounds she noticed an arm in the corner being refilled with blood while another went over to the blood which was rebuilding into a normal form, bits of chest and stomach were being rebuilt in thin air as the head which had been blown onto the platform flew down and connected to where it should've been. Like a jigsaw the rest of Magpie began to magically be rebuilt even her clothes were being repaired.
When her parts were back together.
It wasn't the end, her joints began to click back together as her skin filled in any small cuts or area of clothing. After 20 seconds of the start of the rebuild Magpie was back in a standing position, she took a breath like she was shocked and stepped back almost falling over holding her chest. She looked around "what the fuck?! Oh, I'm back" she looked over at Raven "I told you, I can and do survive anything" she began to make her way over to the platform limping a little but that soon cleared up.
