[b]As people flee in every direction, one man stands, neither approaching nor retreating. Garbed in white, with gold adornments across his armor. An Executioner, undeniably. In his hand was already a unsheathed silver blade, as he stared at the vileblood, mentally preparing. On his back, there was what looked like a massive piece of concrete, and his left hand, a fancily adorned rifle, in the likeness of a long past hero's firearm. He looked down, his hood covering his face. His arms bulky, he seemed to be too strong to use such a small blade. Around his waist were multiple trinkets, an auger of some kind, a black orb, and a glowing blue shell. He looked up, his green eyes showing barely beneath his hood. He didn't move hastily, he was here for one purpose. Not to save civilians, but to do his duty.[/b]
[b]He points the blade towards her.[/b]
"This is the day you fall, foul creature. I've hunted much bigger."

[i]The Vileblood Huntress only grinned sadistically, tilting her head at the sight of the Executioner. So Daniel wasn't the only one alive. Well, he would be the last one soon enough. Irina held out both of her weapons, silently staring and grinning manically at the man.[/i]

[b]He draws the shell from his belt and drags it across his blade. It glows a faint light blue. He then flourishes, taking a defensive stance.[/b]
-
[i]Only grinning madly, she then began to approach, not picking up speed just yet and walking at a rather slow pace. The Vileblood was taking her time, studying weaponry, weak points in the armor, joints, and more. She intended to make this quick.[/i]
-
[b]Upon observation, she manages to notice only a few weaknesses, at the joints of the arm there seemed to be only cloth.[/b] [b]Before she can observe much more, a sincere look of fury appears on the man's face before he charges in with a battle cry. He lunges with an opening thrust.[/b]
-
[spoiler]Sorry for the late reply. Bad night.[/spoiler] [i]Immediately taking her chances, Irina lunged past the Executioner, only barely dodging the oncoming blade and passing him suddenly. She would be trying to tire him out, or wait for a proper opportunity.[/i]
-
[spoiler]it's okay. My day's been pretty junky as well.[/spoiler] [b]He slows his charge after not meeting his target, slinging the blue-tinted blade towards the stone on his back.[/b] [b]It meets the upper part, a sheath, at a horizontal angle, and the stone bursts into a blue fire. He uses the momentum of the blade-on-stone to swing his entire body around in a massive cleave attack.[/b]
-
[i]The Huntress immediately sprung towards the man, sliding across the ground as he swung, although she was already somewhat tiring from the constant movement. Sliding on the barren, bloodied ground, she swung the katana in her right at his left leg, attempting to cut it open.[/i]

Edited by Murph Tha Smurf: 9/24/2016 2:48:21 AM[b]He winced at the pain, the blow landing effectively, but not hitting anything too major, as the wavering in his stance lasted only a moment. He then retaliated, firing the rifle which was still in his left hand, buckshot flying out. Not much for damage, but enough to throw her off balance so the slide was not as clean, liable to cause her to go rolling.[/b] [b] He then holstered the rifle, putting a second hand on his Kirkhammer so he had enough strength to lift it from the ground, resting it on his shoulder.[/b] "You're quick. How far will that really get you...?"
-
[i]Eyes widening suddenly, the huntress sent spiraling back and rolling on the bloodstained ground, rising up after a moment as she began breathing somewhat heavily. She couldn't respond with some grotesque comment or insult to the man, as she was mute. It didn't matter. She suddenly slammed the katana and the dagger together, the dagger protruding from the hilt of the sword. With her free hand, she drew the flintlock at her side, sighing as she aimed it at the man.[/i]

Edited by Murph Tha Smurf: 9/24/2016 3:52:33 AM[b]Upon the weapon transforming, a grin of satisfaction flashed on his face. He lived for these battles, you could sense.[/b] [b]He dragged the hammer across the ground, leading into an uppercut.[/b]
-
Edited by Orn: 9/24/2016 1:02:53 PM[i]After a moment of careful aiming and some backing away from the man, which lead to leaping back to dodge the hammer, the Vileblood aimed down the decorated pistol's sights, the barrel aimed towards the thigh of the incoming attacker. Although her intent was to kill, she was clearly trying to stun. Pulling the trigger, a quicksilver round fired from the barrel towards the man.[/i]
-
[b]He managed to turn only a bit, so the bullet was not lethal, but it still knocked him off balance and onto one knee. He winced through the pain.[/b] [b]He quickly reaches his right hand onto his left gauntlet, dragging it across the wrist in a hasty manner. Suddenly, red, cloudy skulls are released, flying towards the Vileblood with a peculiar animosity.[/b]
-
[i]Busy from the kickback and reloading the pistol, the ghastly skulls slammed into the Vileblood, exploding and knocking her to the ground suddenly. Looking as if she was in considerable pain, she rose up silently, sheathing the pistol and staring eerily at the Executioner.[/i]
-
Edited by Murph Tha Smurf: 9/24/2016 4:27:38 PM[b]He took the opening to rise back on both feet. The blue flames on his hammer begin to fade.[/b] [b]He stood, slowly sidestepping to the right, awaiting her next strike with weapon ready. He stared back.[/b]
-
[i]Not moving just yet, the Huntress appeared to be attempting to counter her opponent through a quick reaction or something of the sort. If she was hit by the hammer, it would most certainly do more than just hurt.[/i]
-
[b]He grabbed the orb from his belt, bringing it close to his eye, then firing a bright blue bolt of arcane.[/b] [b]With a large cleave swing he then slung the stone back onto his back, and advanced, sword and rifle at the ready.[/b]
-
[i]Dodging the bolt of arcane energy by jumping to her right, the Vileblood only circled her opponent in a rather vicious manner, swinging around her weapons in a playful yet rather dark manner, waiting to counter the man at any time.[/i]
-
[b]He swung, quick and precise, the man wasn't all muscle. That said, there was a strong degree of power behind the blows, attempts to parry them would have to be very well positioned simply to deflect the attack, let alone throw him off balance.[/b] [b]Using this method, he began to flurry in her direction.[/b]
-
[i]The woman began dodging once more, yet she was clearly beginning to tire out. Since she wasn't physically strong or armored much, she couldn't take hits from larger weapons, so she had to rely on speed more, and even then she was starting to lightly sweat. She jumped past the man, precisely to his right after he had swung, passing him and slamming the sword and dagger together in order to be able to draw her pistol.[/i]
-
[b]She was quick, but he was a Hunter, so he wasn't exactly slow. He managed to follow her movement and turn to face her, but did not have time to swing.[/b]
