Stunner: Capricorn creates a ball [2 feet wide, 2 feet long] of humming blue energy. Targeted people or items are pulled suddenly towards it. The force behind this pull can be alarming to even strong opponents. It explodes when the enemy hits it- stunning them for an additional post
Cooldown: 4

Showstopper: The user slams their blade into the ground and the earth itself raises up, and reveals beaming pure white light that blinds the opponent momentarily. Affects anyone looking in Capricorn's general direction in a 360 degree area.

Capricorn was partially angry, angry that this world was now off the menu, and that some witch had it. But it was out of his hands, he didn't have the power to fight off her army, these zombies and this place would inevitably become her domain, whether he appreciated it or not.

The whistle was heard, but only when a shadow flew over him, and picked up Walter did the swordsman truly understand. This bird of prey was the boy's ally. Commendable, that much was certain. Capricorn slowed his speed to lift the crying broad onto the lap of Walter. She had lost her child, it was a shame. Even Capricorn himself felt pity on her, and he never shows pity. "Keep moving forward, you'll see a red machine on the other side of that hill, ya can't miss it, it's unlike anything of this world, get inside it. I'll fend these things off. If I don't get there soon, just go kid."

Capricorn slowed, and gripped his side. Blood dropped down his chest. And he turned to the knights that had awkwardly moved like mummified husks towards them. In a flash of white light once more, Capricorn lept and began clashing with the blighted, using his left sword-hand to block and slip under the arms once more to puncture the weak spots in the armor.
While his right, gripped the broken arrow that pierced him and made him wince at every move. His head began to dizzy, and he felt sick fighting. Though he did as well as one could to prevail.

Bright Eyes: The user's eyes flash with such bright light that anyone in front of them is momentarily blinded.

Instead of a hand, he's offered the crying local woman, which he assists him into getting secure on his lap. Blue eyes focus on him as he speaks and his lips curl into a grimace at the words, eyes narrowing briefly before they flick to the Knights, and then to the woman in his lap who does not seem capable or even willing to move in her grief.
He grits his teeth and nods, before he lets out a cry to spur the Chocobo onward, not looking back as he follows directions given to him by the brave outsider.
Fury weaves through the streets and buildings like a leaf flutters through the wind, leaping and climbing over buildings that blocks his path before they burst from the front of the Castle-town and begin the dash up the hill. And there it is, just like he said, a strange red machine...He trudges onward, eyes scanning the contraption in confusion briefly, hopping from the Chocobo to do the Arthurian equivalent of poking it with a stick..
Until he finally figures out how to work the thing, and loads all of them inside..
However, Walter lingers, eyes locked onto the town...Knee's threatening to buckle underneath him at the sight of the castle, slowly turning a deep pitch black color, with crimson veins running along it...

Camelot has fallen, and yet he still stands.
A Page, with barely any knightly training, the last Knight of Camelot, unless they count his possessed brethren that have been corrupted by this..this...Blight!
And yet he stands still, waiting for the allotted time to pass, then he'd do as he was told, and leave upon this machine.

After desperately fighting through wounds, Capricorn plunged his blade into yet more knights. Finally, when he realized the entire mob of townspeople were approaching he got up and ran. Arrows were shot into his body, calf muscles, back, shoulders... All over. But still he ran, and when he saw the ship he through his body onto the ramp. "Go! They're outside, hurry..."

It's barely a moment after the Outsider lands upon the ramp before he slams the button he found to open up the ramp, and rushes off to the front, and for a frantic panicked moment he stares at the controls hands raised in indecision before he does what any panicked young man would do in a position as dire as this one.
He picks the shiniest looking button and hopes for the best, which luckily for the three Humans plus Chocobo pays off, and Walt gives a startled jump at the take-off of this contraption, eyes widened as they look around.
They've escaped, they've escaped with the last survivor...
He's one of the Last..

Not even a true Knight, a Page of his Order, and every single one of his Brethren, taken by that- Blackness! To fight against their will for only Merlin knows what!
What will he do now...?
He ponders, as his Chocobo, Fury, moves to assist the Outsider named Capricorn, Walter drawn over by the 'warks' of his companion, before he too moves to assist, he's been taught basic first-aid luckily, as he's currently out of mana..This could be a rough night, until his reserves return that is and he can simply wave his hand towards the Outsider.
Any first-aid materials he has, will simply have to do for now unfortunately...

Capricorn awoke later, having survived by the hair of his head, and the thread in which walter could sew with. Sitches and bandages were left all over him, and he woke up feeling the soreness all the way into his toes. His eyes scanned the ships pit and he first saw the oversized chicken setting in the corner. Then his eyes traveled to the woman sitting down, with a cross necklace wrapped around her hand. Finally his vision came to the blonde at the wheel, this was the squad it seemed.

Capricorn didn't know what to say, so he let the silence get the better of him, leaving the peace in the room. It was time to move on, Camelot was no more.
