No moment wasted _____Shigure only made one action towards the two as they seemed set on helping the people. Her left hand raised to wave them goodbye for not listening to her warning. Shigure knew of the dark side of people, being one well lost in that darkness allowed her such a sense of who should die, and who should at least have some second thoughts about killing them off. Growling to herself as she watched the two wondering why she did not just kill them since they clearly would be no use to Hades. _____Her hand resting on a Shuriken as she clicked her tounge. She did not know why she was helping them as she moved off the wall and took aim. Initially she was aiming for the back of Jayden's skull, then she moved her focus to Soren, then lastly to the wire that held the trap in place before the Shuriken began to sail through the air. She gave it enough curve to allow it to pass between the center of the corridor before cutting across to the left to take to the wire prematurely. _____Sure enough the net fell down and two spears would impale the spot from both sides. Two werewolves stood at the end of the spears looking at the empty net before the two adventures. Dropping the spears as the pulled out small daggers and looked ready to fight against the two rushing towards them. If either lowered their Weapons Shigure would roll her eyes while the two threats rushed to attack the person who dared leave themselves potentially open for an attack. @Jayden Heartly | @Soren Kalamalos | @Choir Liore
Jayden Heartly Jayden ran with the intent to save lives. To protect the innocent from eminent destruction, yet all he was met with was a facade. Of course Shigure was right. She had deduced a trap was set for the two, and with this meeting of foresight, Jayden defied her wishes in order to further his own personal agenda. Was it really his own agenda? Did he expect these people, should they be saved, to send his name across the land in good faith? Would Soren and Shigure suddenly look up to him? Would anyone really care? That was something Jayden had not yet come to terms with. The sound of steel whirred and sliced through the air, just around Jayden's head he saw the glinting metal slice the rope, sending a weaved net into the air. Promptly following that, two spears held by cock-faced werewolves sprang up, seeking prey for the kill, yet none lied there. The trash was dismantled from afar, and now they produced daggers, seeing as Soren and Jayden appeared. What normally would have stopped Jayden, astonished him even, did not. In fact, he ran faster. His feet picked up the pace. He brought his blade from his side to the back, becoming a slipstream of momentum. His blade created an aerodynamic funnel, allowing it to cut right through the air as his feet began to push and heave the ground under him at higher and higher rates. His breathing was heavy, but in between a series of pants he managed to send out a command to Soren. "Soren, light 'em up!" As he ordered for suppression fire, Jayden himself let out a battlecry. A roar lightly bathing in disdain for the unjust. It wasn't a heroic cry of justice, but rather a spiteful wail of spite. This was him taking it personally, and Jayden was not particularly fun to be around when you offended him personally. He whipped the blunt hilt of his blade around his side, sliding his dominant foot in a half circle as ducked, dodging a dagger slice from one of the werewolves. Jayden's short stature made infiltration of the enemy comfort zone at such speed a grace and a half. As Jayden narrowly evaded (three times now) being struck by the shining steel blade, he connected all of his momentum into a hilt blow into the sternum of the werewolf on the left, promptly knocking the wind out of the guy and sending him flying at least a meter or so back and onto his arse. Though one victory came quick, Jayden was now faced with the remaining werewolf, who quickly took hold of Jayden's arm that held his sword, the werewolf now taking the Chienthrope Adventurer into a grapple hold. He lifted the boy up, off the ground slightly, being met back with a chomp from Jayden's fangs. He sunk them into the werewolf's wrist, causing blood to emerge from the tendon in the process of being severed. Jayden called once more for aid, as the werewolf who had been knocked down just a moment ago was already recovering and looking to send a blow into Jayden. @Soren Kalamalos @Shigure Kosaka @Choir Liore
@Jayden Heartly @Shigure Kosaka @Choir Liore Soren had quickly followed after the Chienthrope, but stopped once he caught sight of the net falling down, followed by two spears that would have pierced both of them if Shigure hadn't disarmed the trap. He stood there, stunned, as the werewolves came forward and drew out their daggers. He didn't snap out of it until Jayden called for help. He brought out one of his arrows and took aim before beginning to set it alight. “O passionate flames, consume this arrow and let it fly straight and true!” he chanted, "Flaming Weapon!" The tip immediately burst into flames and sent the arrow flying into the werewolf. He yelped in surprise as the arrow dug into his flesh and burned it. The dark elf aimed another arrow at the werewolf trying to get up and fired. He didn't see where the arrow had landed as he focused his attention on Jayden.
No moment wasted _____Shigure could only grip the bridge of her nose, these two truly annoyed her for still going in despite finding out the truth. Her ears turning slightly as she heard Goblins approach from behind them. "Nyaa, this is going to be annoying." Shigure growled under her breath as she would have to decide, leave her show, or deal with the goblins and resume watching. Tanto slowly being drawn as she watched four goblins come out into view. Her tounge clicking as she rushed to give her some fall back room should she need it. _____She had no intention to fight the goblins to help the two males, she was doing it so she could watch her show in peace. The goblins had a lose rush forward, enough room to get between them was Shigure's only thought as she ran towards the wall. She did not have a good enough speed to run along it for that long, but as she stated her horizontal collision course with the first goblin their shouting would likely alert the adventure's fighting that another fight had started. Shigure's figure pushed off the wall to shoulder slam the first Goblin into the wall before she stabbed him with both her weapons and moved away from the remaining three. Her fangs showing as she hissed and waited for another chance. @Jayden Heartly | @Soren Kalamalos | @Choir Liore
Jayden Heartly The sound of projectiles puncturing skin caught the attention of Jayden, as the grip caught around him was loosened, he immediately released a kick off the werewolf as if using him for a springboard. He landed in a shoulder-roll against the rocky surface, the smell of sulfur engulfing Jayden's scent. He grasped a spear from the ground, presumably dropped by the werewolves earlier who attempted to capture them. His ears caught the sound of monstrous gnarling. He grit his teeth, seeing Shigure too was now caught in a bout of violence. Of course this decision resulted in bloodshed once more. Wasting no more time, Jayden whipped the spear into vault position, launching it with a few step start, allowing it to depart into the air and right at the skull of one of they grey goblins. Whether it connected was unable to be discerned, as Jayden had more pressing matters in front of him. The latter arrow Soren had let loose towards the stunted werewolf had grazed the guy's arm, which was evident by the smoking blood pouring from his forearm. Jayden sneered, his eyes catching sight of both werewolf Adventurers. They were very pissed off. "I'm getting really sick of you guys..." One produced a malevolent laugh, the other sneering back in response as he attempted to rush Jayden down. The Chienthrope, backtracked against three swipes, the fourth glancing off his one blade, and the fifth causing a clash of steel. The laughing werewolf rushed around the side to give Jayden a quick bust in the gut, but was met with Jayden whipping the blunt side of the handle into his sternum, knocking the wind out of him. This forced Jayden to push out of his blade clash, back-stepping and replacing it with a feint rush. "Soren, cover my six!" Referring to the blind spot behind Jayden, the young Chienthrope made a low sweeping strike with his sword against the overarching swinging werewolf. His sword caught the heel and shin of his opponent, sending them toppling over like it was Queen take King in Chess-- toppling over disgracefully. Huffing, Jayden pointed his blade to the werewolf's throat, keeping his from moving. ... Check... mate." Jayden had always wanted to use that one-liner. Keeping one of the ambushers down for the count, Jayden made eye contact with Soren to make his move. He was fairly sure the other werewolf who got a pointed hilt into the chest was down for the count, so all that was left was to subdue to goblin threat that Shigure had managed to attract. @Soren Kalamalos @Shigure Kosaka @Choir Liore
@Jayden Heartly @Shigure Kosaka @Choir Liore Soren could hear the sound of incoming monsters and he mentally cursed the werewolves for sandwiching them between the two of them and the goblins. He was sure they could handle the monsters, but the werewolves...he wasn't so sure. In any case, it seemed like his arrow managed to graze one of the werewolves, which would help a little...he hoped. "On it!" the dark elf boy called out as he kept an eye on the second werewolf that they were handling. He fired off a warning shot when the man got too close. "No. Stay," he warned. "Do I look like a dog to you, kid?!" the man growled as he took another step. He was met with an arrow in his arm. "Don't even think about it," he said, trying to push away the feeling of guilt that was growing. He had injured people, people that were trying to kill him, yes, but people. His face betrayed no emotion as he stared down at the man before looking back at Shigure and the goblins. He fire off another shot at them this time, managing to hit one of them in the knee.
No moment wasted _____Shigure’s reaction would be swift and likely confusing to those that she was teamed up with. Her arms moving as she turned to face them. Left hand rose her weapon to send the spear over the goblins while her right hand moved to cut the and render it only to bounce off the goblin target as she hissed at the two. Arms moved again to clash with the goblins trying to but her exposed back as she kept her focus on the two as she spoke. _____"I did not ask for your help, nor do i need it.” Moving her arms away from her figure to divert the attacks away to giver her time to spin around and return her focus to the goblins. She was far too stubborn to admit her need for help. She was Hades’ tool, to get help would only show she clearly wasn't the tool for the job and she refused to not be a tool for any job. Arms crossing in a X fashion at a Goblin’s skull to remove the second threat leaving two left. _____Her lips slowly parting as she chose to use magic to end this. "Shadow!” The air around her and the goblins quickly blackened as her magic spread outward blinding her and her foes, however she was no stranger to trusting memory and sound. Ears turning and scanning for the goblin’s breathing before she dashed forward with Shunshin. In this case she used the jump to sever the necks of her pray as the smoke cleared to reveal the remains, her arms slightly cut from the goblin’s clawing her as she passed them. _____Turning to face the two with angered eyes before she began to resume the path she was going before they group went towards the trap. She wanted to kill them so much for trying to ruin her chance to improve even slightly against the mindless foes, she wanted to kill them as her mind blamed them for her injuries. But Hades orders to kill no more adventures was law to the cat folk as she went searching for something to vent her hatred out on. @Jayden Heartly | @Soren Kalamalos | @Choir Liore
