Eyes of Crimson and Azure [ToriJ]

[Ayen]

The two pulled away remaining on opposite sides of Jehanne, circling the Warrior-Knight and planning their next move accordingly as they watched and waited to see what the woman would do.

[Jehanne]

Jehanne did nothing. She simply remained standing in her spot on the desert with her arms ready to attack and defend whenever necessary. It was not her who's life was depending on an upset victory here today. Ranko was dead, Kasul was destroyed and the remaining Empire that Kaso and Alexander could call on were too afraid to move a single muscle and they were already learning just why Ranko was unable to best her. No. All Jehanne had to do was wait them out. They'd collapse from exhaustion long before she would. Or in the undead's case collapse in on himself in general.

[Ayen]

They hadn't any time to lose. Alexander would be the first to strike, charging in as fast as his legs would carry him and coming at Jehanne with a powerful thrust aim to dig the saber deep into the Warrior-Knight's flesh.

[Jehanne]

Jehanne was no stranger to speed. She had just matched speed with a half-devil who was faster than light and managed to track her speed. Alexander's movements were easy to watch and even easier to avoid as she stepped off to the side avoiding his thrust, not forgetting about the behemoth Black Knight at her rear.

[Ayen]

Alexander turned to face Jehanne after the failed thrust and followed up with a three hit combo.

[Jehanne]

Jehanne parried each strike against her with the sword in her left-hand meanwhile keeping its twin in her right-hand free for the Black Knight. Or did he really intend to just stand there and watch his ally be killed?

[Ayen]

Kaso closed in during the parries against Alexander's strikes and launched a devastating overhead attack at Jehanne with his blade.

[Jehanne]

The right hand of the Warrior-Knight already mustered up the strength it needed to block the overhead attack on Kaso, having expected it, and then press off both her opponents blade before sliding back through the sand and placing both in her field of vision.

[Ayen]

The two lunged at Jehanne side by side in unison, being led by the tip of their blades in a similar fashion as Ranko did in the previous battle. They both sidestepped opposite of each other Alexander hitting a five part combo at Jehanne's right-hand side while Kaso launched a rapid combination of stabs at blinding speed at her left, though it lacked the speed Ranko put in the move it drew in much more power and if Jehanne tried to get out of range by moving back both warriors would move forward to remain in her range with their strikes.

[Jehanne]

Azure eyes flared and another grin grew on the female's face. This was more like it. She wanted the two warriors at their best not their worse. With little options left available to her Jehanne had no choice but to go over both men and their attacks, landing down behind them and then spinning around quickly striking both hard and fast in the back simultaneously with the twin swords.

[Ayen]

The two turned around quickly and Alexander met her strike with an upward slash to send Jehanne flying into the air before she could finish her attack. Kaso stepped forward and proceeded to deliver several different upward slashes of his own while she was airborne, his height allowing him to do so without needing to take his feet off the ground. This allowed Alexander to lie in wait and pounce on Jehanne like a tiger the second gravity returned her to the ground.

[Jehanne]

It was easy to see why these two were among the strongest in Ranko's army. It was a shame she had to kill them. It would have been an honor to have them on her side, but they had made their choice and Jehanne planned to give them a death befitting knights of their stature. After being knocked up into the air the Warrior Knight crossed her blades into an X shape to withstand the upward slashes and then came right back down unfolding her arms releasing a sweeping slash to knock both men back.

[Ayen]

The two were knocked back but managed to keep their footing, Alexander being knocked back the farthest of both of them due to his smaller size compared to Kaso. But Kaso took more damage as a result of his chest being exposed from the previous damage he suffered at the hands of Jehanne. He remained in front of Jehanne and came towards her with a powerful thrust to the chest.

[Jehanne]

Jehanne was wide open as the cost of her previous sweeping attack but just when the thrust came, her chest plate grew impenetrable to the thrust and the Warrior Knight remained standing where she was. Now spinning both blades in her hand and slicing and dicing through the exposed chest of the knight.

[Ayen]

Kaso couldn't understand how his thrust was unable to cause so much as a dent in Jehanne's armor. Surely it couldn't be that strong, could it? Kaso had no time to ponder on the thought as the Warrior-Knight wasted no time exploiting the exposed chest. But that was the best thing about the undead; they could take it. Kaso brought his blade up and then performed a downward swing aimed to slice right down the middle of Jehanne's exposed head, Alexander coming up at the side aiming his sword at Jehanne's waist.
