A trail of body piled up behind her on the ground of Jherrazad with the dark castle overhead. Men of the Jherrazad Free Army and those who marched underneath the banner of the "Red Devil" laid here side by side, all made the same by one woman's blade. They died as they lived.
By the sword.
In the midst of this chaos stood one woman clad in pink. The Blind Assassin Fukari who was on the war path to the castle which dwell Ranko herself. For years the two opposing armies had turned this land into their war zone and now, on behalf of the victims in this war, she was going to pay with her life. With a hand firmly around the hilt of her katana she made her way towards the castle.

The sound of a loud gunshot echoed through the surrounding area, the smell of gunpowder drifted up into the night’s air as a 9mm bullet passed by the right ear of The Blind Assassin, barely touching as it went by and disappeared into the distance. Standing between Fukari and the entrance to Ranko’s castle was no other than her younger sister, “The Seductress” herself, Maricul. The black 9mm pistol with the red blood steak across its surface known as the 9mm Bloodlust present in her left hand as her brown eyes narrowed over the blind woman that wished vengeance against the very being that Maricul herself wanted to defeat. This was something “The Seductress” could not allow. Ranko would be defeated by her hands, and her hands alone.
“That was a warning shot,” said Maricul coldly. “Insist on your charge and next time I won’t miss.”

Fukari came to a halt at the sound of a gun going off. She could both hear and feel the bullet flying by but remained unphased at it barely touching her as the smell of gunpowder was absorbed into her nostrils followed by the stench of the undead. There was only one question on The Blind Assassin's mind right now. Why? Why did this vampire wish to stop her from confronting Ranko? As soon as the question entered her mind it was already answered by her uncanny ability to recognize scent.
Siblings.
This woman, this vampire, held traces of the same scent as the Red Devil. Of all the people to run into it had to be family. No matter. If this woman wanted to protect her own flesh and blood then The Blind Assassin wouldn't give a second thought to cutting her down. She was a vampire and that meant Fukari would be doing the world a favor by picking her off as well. One less bloodsucking menace to attend to.
"You should have went for the kill when you still had the element of surprise."
The Blind Assassin would be sure to make the vampire regret this mistake as she drew the katana and took a single step forward.
"Stand in my way and I'll cut you down all the same."

“I had hoped to resolve this peacefully.”
But peace was unheard of in this world. Maricul lined up her shot perfectly, nothing less for the vampiress clad in white as the barrel of the 9mm Bloodlust now pointed at the forehead of The Blind Assassin, right between the eyes beneath the white bandages. Her grasp on the weapon tightened as she began to squeeze the trigger, at any second she would pull back against it completely and fire a single bullet at the woman’s head.
“The spider claims the fly trapped in her web.”

"Firing off a gun is your idea of peaceful?"
Guess one shouldn't expect much from Ranko's immediate family. The Blind Assassin only smiled at the last comment of the vampiress as she lined up for a shot at The Blind Assassin's head.
"Which one of us is the spider?"
Fukari raised her blade up high and showing no concern for the vampiress' weapon she rushed the woman, unleashing a combination of slashes towards Maricul.

Maricul pulled back on her upper body, tracking the speeds in which the swings came so she was successful in avoiding the course of the blade before using her own body to push The Blind Assassin backward. With five feet created between the two Maricul held up the Bloodlust and fired off two shots towards the chest of the Half Breed.

It was like a wall just slammed into her as the vampiress used her body to force her back. Fukari's devil reflexes kicked in at the shots as she repelled the bullets, the two halves of both bullets flying through the air and hitting the nearby ground. Instinct led The Blind Assassin in pulling back on her katana and then thrusting it forward to the heart of the vampire while laying waste to the short distance created between them by Maricul's body.

The tip of the blade barely penetrated the surface of the skin. Not even coming close to the heart. Upon impact the Katana nearly bent out of shape as Maricul would take this time to kick the sword out of Fukari’s hands and then threw a punch with her unarmed hand against The Blind Assassin’s face. The punch carried more than enough force to send the Half Breed flying fifteen feet backward through the air and break her face along with it.

Fukari could hear her blade threatening to bend once it came in contact with Maricul's skin. Interesting. But The Blind Assassin had no time to dwell on this as she felt the katana kicked out of her hand and the fist colliding into her face. She could feel the wind on her back as she fell through the air and crashed into the ground. In the midst of that fall The Blind Assassin could hear and feel the sound of bones breaking, on top of that blood dripped from her mouth. A smile became visible on the now devilish features of The Blind Assassin before jumping up to her feet. Several shurikens was launched towards the vampire's position as she chased after, and recovered, her fallen katana and entered a defensive stance now nineteen feet away from the enemy.

Maricul shot down the shurikens and now slowly made her march towards The Blind Assassin, only smiling back to that devilish grin now present on the opponent’s face. There was nothing quite like the feeling of drawing first blood in a battle. Her eyes flared crimson red and she licked her lips at the sight of the woman’s blood. Wondering just what it would taste like to have in her mouth. Thoughts of sinking her teeth into the woman’s neck and indulging in every last drop of blood entered her mind, but she was getting ahead of herself. There was a fight to win.

Fukari wiped the blood from her lips onto her sleeve as she tracked Maricul's movement through both smell and hearing. The cracked bones where Maricul had punched her were beginning to heal as the vampire continued her slow march to The Blind Assassin's position. The half devil woman would only grin wider when the vampiress stepped on a landmine she had planted there hours ago to earn herself a field advantage against the armies. The landmind exploded once Maricul's foot made contact with it and The Blind Assassin would take advantage of that moment to send a blessed shuriken soaring for the vampire's heart it's incoming being disguised by the smoke and debris caused by the blast.

The blast was strong. It would have torn apart someone else but Maricul only stood there momentarily stunned by the explosion, then she felt something stab into her during all the commotion with a light blessing that irritated her skin. Maricul looked down to see the shuriken sticking out of her. It was able to penetrate the skin but still wasn’t strong enough to reach the heart of the woman. She pulled it out and toss it aside before drawing the 11mm Blessing from her trench coat.
If Fukari could see she would have bare witness to the most remarkable sight ever. Maricul appearing as the dust settled, still in one piece. Her shuriken wound having closed and healed by the time she was clear of the smoke and debris, continuing on her march as if nothing happened, guns blazing towards the unfortunate Half Breed who thought it a good idea to get on the woman’s bad side.

Nothing.
Not the satisfaction of screams or the smell of blood from a wound.
Just the sound of approaching footsteps followed by the roars of bullets exiting their chambers. This called for quick action on the part of The Blind Assassin and so an eruption of slashes would cut down the incoming bullets stopping them dead in their trajectory whilst another explosion of slashes went off against Maricul with enough force to send her flying into the air. Fukari had vanished and then reappeared before "The Seductress" in midair now unleashing an omnipotent barrage of slashes in midair possessing enough strength for massive damage and to send the vampire crashing down hard into the ground below.

Maricul was knocked into the air however she was able to cross her arms into an X formation and held it up in front of her face as the omnipotent barrage of the Katana came to withstand the attack, that combined with her endurance cut the damage that would’ve been inflicted in half as she fell to the ground. With her back to the ground now both pistols were up and as that nasty old gravity pulled Fukari down she unleashed several shots into the path of Fukari's fall with the 11mm Blessing aim towards the chest.

Even as the cruel force of gravity pulled her down towards the ground.
Even as the 11mm bullets came rushing for their target.
The Blind Assassin showed no fear or the slightest sign of concern as she was able to cut down the bullets during the midst of her fall and pulled back on the right arm which held the katana. As the force of gravity quickly pulled her down to the vampiress she tapped into the superhuman strength of her demon half, applying more strength in order to cut through the thick skin of the vampiress and then plunged the blade into her black heart upon collision.
