Sworn to Protect [Saga | Giovanni, Maya, Tobias]

You sure you can keep up with a woman like me~?

“Ohhhhh, looks like you’re finally trying, huh~?” The sneering of the sable siren seeming to stimulate her enemy into putting a little more effort into his assault, Miss Murasaki could see the way that her armoured adversary seemed to put a little more pace into his attacks in order to nail her with a hit and while that made them a bit harder to avoid, ultimately appreciated that fact even if it did mean she was subject to a few stinging moments when his attacks glanced across her flesh. But she wasn’t about to let them get her down, no, because this Asian amazon was a tough old girl if nothing else.

“Gotta go fast~!” Smirking as she saw how hard he was trying and in all honesty also noticing the greater degree of difficulty with which she was having evading those fast but wild strikes of his, the martial minx knew that while the weight of his weapon meant not only that ultimately his strikes would remain rather sluggish but also now that he was throwing them around in such a frenzy he was going to tire even faster than before, so as she skirted around his hits and continued to lead him on a merry chase the minx was excited. And not blind to other elements of his effort either.

“Aw, what’s this? You want me all to yourself~?” It taking her a few of those hammering hits against the walls for the warrior woman to recognise the fact that it seemed her enemy was just as focused on keeping her here as she was him, though it was perhaps a little galling for the girl to realize that she might have to dig her way out of this fight if she continued to let him have his way, ultimately she decided to let him keep at it for the moment. As she did as well.
“That’s real sweet, I’ve really made a big impression on you, huh~?” Never for a second letting those jibes die down as she bounced around on her tippy toes as if her feet were made of springs, though Maya was always the cheeky sort whenever she found herself up against a foe in a fight or other kind of competition one had to admit she was going rather above and beyond in her trashy talk as she sprang around her environment with her breath deepening and brow gleaming, and honestly in her own way having the time of her life really. Never happier than when she found her pulse pounding and her back against a wall, with her exits seeming to be closed off it felt like that pressure was mounting, and the Asian amazon was always at her best when she went up against adversity, now wasn’t she?

“But you should bear in mind that, really, I’m not trapped in here with you…” Because of that fact the black beauty beaming as she hopped off her hands and landed next to the last exit to the room, the one through which her trio of charges had escaped only a matter of minutes before, while some might have wanted to protect such an exit with everything they had this particular purple pro opted to do something which was incredibly reckless to say the least. A wild leg swipe lashing out as she gave the crackling creep a little hint of the power he was up against himself, Miss Murasaki unleashed the zenith of her strength as she struck out against the frame and the wall next to it, and hit with enough force to make it crumble and crash into a heap next to her; sealing both her and her thunderous foe off from the rest of the world. However, she wasn’t afraid of this situation, instead she welcomed it.

“You’re the one trapped in here with me!” This the bastard who had taken the frightened femme whom she had rescued earlier and inflicted such terror and torment upon her that she had become a wobbling mess, not only did Maya want to make sure that he wouldn’t get a chance to do so again but she also knew that she owed him some of the same treatment for what he had done, and was more than happy to dish that particular punishment out now that her blood was pumping good and hard for her. Because of that fact the femme reaching toward her back again and pulling her sword from its sheath, while she had the awful temptation to try to hack straight through him with that razor sharp edge instead her common sense won out and she dropped the weapon to the ground, because she had one far more fitting in mind for this particular occasion, and this particular foe.

He might have gotten the better of you, but WE’LL make sure he pays for that, Nimue! Choosing to wield not the brilliant blade she boasted of but rather the sheath in which she brought it in, Miss Murasaki was thankful both for the resilient, non-conductive carbon fibre it was composed of and the words of wisdom that she had been spared by the woman she had saved, and would use both of these to start her counterattack.
“Let’s see how good that armour really is, Sparky!” Almost feeling like she was back in the dojo with a bokutou within her grasp as she squeezed the scabbard into her palms and then tucked it under her wing like she was about to draw a blade, the sable siren smirked for a second as she let a moment of calm pass between them, before launching into her attack with the tranquil fury of any samurai defending their home and their people.

“HYEEEEEEEHHHH!!!” A single slow breath escaping her lips as she waited for the opportune moment to strike and then took it with a bellowing battle cry unlike any of the little pot shots she had launched against him earlier on, the shout of the swordswoman was just as explosive as the charge she launched with it, and to her mind just as effective in battle as the attack she would unleash a moment later as she employed that ancient martial arts technique of turning even her mouth into a weapon to stun her enemy as she broke through the silence so superbly. That not all, however, and the minx more than happy to back it up with a blast from her blunt ‘blade’ as she closed the distance between them and swiped up and across herself to slam that firm edge against the ribs of her electrified enemy on his dominant side, she wondered just how well he might swing the mallet he carried around with half his chest crushed, and barely even considered his armour as much of a challenge either.

Not so much fun when the girl can fight back, is it?! Capable of smashing through steel if she put enough force behind it and this attack more than packed with the power the purple pro could summon, even if it didn’t burst through the simple kinetic might would send him shooting across the room, and evasion? Well, that was tricky when one was not only carrying a heavy hammer and heavy armour, but had just been through a merry chase to wear oneself out rather thoroughly; this fight was hers…
