Horror went through Pluck, Theodore and Sister Theresa as Baro's body changed with an agonizing screech. His nose and eyes started to leak out mud, like someone had been squeezing an orange. In almost an instant his body went from flesh to mud, shifting him into a terrifying monster. It formed a face just as it let out a roar, making Asta, Feodora, Karasu, Avalon and Alistar freeze for a moment before they engaged Prism, Brenin, Saorise and Liam in a fight once again.

Theodore shrieked before he ran to Pluck and put himself in the bag shocking Addeline. "QUACK!" She shouted as she went inside.

"Whoopsies---" Sally said rubbing the back of her head, "---Looks like I messed up a little. He can move now and his magic is recharged, but looks like his personality wandered off somewhere. Though---That's what you get for going against orders. I mean--You did try to kill the little Princess even when we told you to take her and her Shifters alive. We can't have that."

"HOW INSANE ARE YOU?!" Pluck shouted out of confusion.

The whole ground shook when Baro, now in a beast-like form, smashed against the wall. The kids shrieked in a panic as they couldn't help but cry.

"CRAP NOT GOOD, THIS IS NOT GOOD!!!" Avalon shouted before she blocked an attack from Saorise who had still been in ram form.

"Gauche, Pluck---" Sister Theresa said, "--Protect the children!"

"Way ahead of ya Sister!" Pluck said as he got his sword out, "I'll take this side, Gauche you take--"

Everyone had been put into shock when Gauche flew to the crowd of children and grabbed Marie. Asta and Feodora had looked horrified at this.

"Gauche...?" Asta said.

"Sister Lover?" Theodore said, horrified.

"Let's go Marie." He said as he flew.

"G-Go?" Marie said worryingly, "But--What about everyone else?"

"It doesn't matter---" He said, "--It's too dangerous for you to be around that monster!"

"WHAT?!" Asta, Karasu and Avalon shouted.

"... That---Dirty, rotten little snake---!" Feodora said as for a moment her eyes reverted to ice blue eyes before she blocked an attack from Prism.

"That little---" Pluck said before he gave out a muffled shriek, "---THAT LITTLE NADORHUAN!!" He soon turned to his rooster, "NIWA, HOLD MY PLACE, PROTECT THESE KIDS!"

"BAWK." Niwa said as he still had his look.

"ADDI---BACK HIM UP TILL I GET BACK!"Pluck said with his tone of voice, as he got Addeline and Theodore out of his bag, as he manifested his broom, "DADDY'S GONNA TAKE CARE OF AN IDIOT SORRY EXCUSE OF A MAGIC KNIGHT!"

"Did you just call yourself daddy?" Theodore asked, shocked, before his eyes shifted to pink, "Awww, you're a real papa now!"

"NOT IN THE MOOD!" Pluck yelled before he hopped on his broom and flew much to everyone's shock.

"NOW WHERE ARE YOU GOING?!" Karasu yelled as he managed to get out of Liam's range when he used his blue flames.

Pluck yelled as he flew after Gauche, "TO KICK ADLAI'S ASS WHERE THE SUN DON'T SHINE!"

With that, Pluck took off after Gauche, leaving most of them stunned. Until the silence was broken by Theodore.

"... Somebody's in trouble~!" He said with green eyes.
