Â The second wave fails to come even close, and the guard was close enough to put his full weight into Desmond, the points at the end of his fist weapons slamming into the man.
A flash of light happened a split second before any sort of impact, lessening the blows that continuously bombarded the hyur even through his skilled parrying and blocking. Â If the monk wasn't stopped soon ...
Asdrellia hid behind Kayle's back, burying her face in her hands ...
The other archer let loose a string of arrows. Â In such a confined space, his aim was poor, so he aimed at the largest target in the room.
Of course, the largest target was her, and her eyes narrowed. Â Her left eyes flashed for a moment, the materia imbedded in her temple giving her a flash of insight. Â Though the archer's aim was at her, his form was sloppy, perhaps from a round of drinks before. Â She saw his weakness and compensated her body, twisting so Lucy was out of the line of fire. Â The arrows slammed into her armor, though one found it's way to imbed between plate and chain.
"Well that was not very nice of you!" Lucy reprimanded, a small finger wagging at the archer on the other side of the door. Â Her small hands moved and a portal flashed in front of them both. Â A yellow carbuncle shimmered and curled into the room, landing on her little feet.
"Topey! Â Teach that rude person a lesson!" Â The carbuncle sprinted forward, curling into a tight ball at the last second and slammed into the man's chest, sending both him and his bow flying in opposite directions down the street. Â Returning to her mistress, Topey flared her three-wisped tail, glaring at the door.
