The collision with the roof almost couldn't be felt, she burned through the tower almost immediately. Although it managed to slow her fast, unwanted descent from the sky. Grateful for the surprising space within, colossal wings spread wide to avoid slamming into the ground as well. White, bordering on blue flames at the tip of the feathers singed any material they passed close by, the vaguely woman shaped supernova landed with an inhumane phoenix cry. The reply came in form of a laugh more akin to a peacock's call, mocking and amused.
“You are getting so predictable ”
The crystalline woman carefully perched in the air, making sure to not come in contact with the molten metal chuckled mockingly.
“So are you for never starting a fight in outer space.”
The Fire snapped back with a quick scan of the surroundings; probably a sorcerer's workshop and- oh shit. The two entities noticed the human mage in roughly the same time.
“What a shame.”
She smirked with casual cruelty and a spike of twisted excitement as hail and icicles rained down from the ruined roof.
Cindy moved out of ingrained reflex, even if the man was a mage, there was no strong enough defense spell to counter cosmic ice other than her own fire. Careful to not burn him, phoenix wings closed as a protective shield, projecting most of their heat outwards. She still felt three stabs in her left but not enough time to register because she knew Chione too well.
She whirled away from the man, golden white fire exploding from her palm to stop the ice spear hurled down as a twisted goodbye.
An extremely thin tightrope of just enough power in order to not obliterate the whole castle and everyone inside but still prevent the weapon slamming down as it would have the same result. The spear slowed but kept advancing despite the cosmic blaze enveloping it, until it shattered at last, the ruined pieces dissolving in the torrent of white golden.
Wings flared, more than ready for an explosive takeoff to chase down the other entity; stopped by a cry of pain. Universe eyes snapped at the source, three icicles piercing the left completely through.
An enraged huff turned into a sigh, her inferno slowly but eventually dying down. The burst needed to heal such damage would kill the man and everyone within range, drawing her wings back to herself with ice still embedded in them sounded like willing poisoning.
“...Sorry for the roof. And for the other things.” she spoke at last
Gone the celestial visage, jade green eyes looked almost apologetic, the previous supernova hair now light brown shifting to bright crimson at shoulder length. The reminder that the woman was the same entity that melted metal with terrifying ease were the wings, the injured one resting on the floor.
“Are you alright?” she asked with barely concealed worry at the possibility he might've gotten hurt despite her efforts
Oh he was more than alright then.
“You're very fucking welcome.”
Came the almost immediate snap, maybe she could've controlled her annoyance if not for the cosmic ice still embedded in her wing, thanks to saving him. Because as Chione knew very well, she didn't allow casualties. Dragging the wounded, now crimson red and much less on fire wing close left three deep gouges in the no doubt expensive floor but her apologies seemed to dry out by this point.
A gritty chuckle at the demands, oh he was in for a ride if she told the complete truth. And...she was extremely tempted to do so meanwhile her hands yet again lit up with too bright flames to get the ice dissolve.
“Cindy Flame. Some know me as Eternal Fire or Phoenix Force. The Firstborn of the Universe.”
And she was more than happy to add appropriate flair to the claim soon. When her left side ironically wasn't burning from the cold.
“By ‘that ’ I assume you're asking about that frigid bitch, that's Chione Fjolla, the Secondborn. And she really doesn't like that fact.” it was by all means an understatement regarding the destruction that had taken place.
“But hey, after my fire has cooled, with a few alterations you got a perfect stargazing tower.” now she couldn't contain her smirk spreading even wider, shaking her wing free from the remaining loose shards of ice and recalling both them back to her body in a slow, brilliant golden tickle of light.
“As for why your kingdom: Chione started a fight when I was near a surprisingly densely populated island so I can't counter her ice as efficiently. It wasn't specifically targeted at your kingdom, more like at me as usual.” with how much was at stake, something also needed clarification
“She couldn't hurt anyone. Nor did I even accidentally. She has no regard for human life or individuals, I have.”
“And I have no intentions of harming anyone unless seriously provoked.”
