CAssandra lay a few yards away forgotten dew to the fact she is cloaked in shadows. they were swarming around her, slowly moving her off and away from emeidate harm. they like being free from the Nether. they could not let the Door-Keeper die.

[JohnnyP789]

Atticis noiced that the shadows were taking a body away, and he smiled,"thats the person who controls the shadows... They're mine...." he ran after them, slashing at shadow after shadow, trying to get to them,"damn these things are persistent."

[Kaya]

the shadows hissed and Cassandra began to slip into the shadows. what, what?! yes she was begining to slip into her own shadow. They were converging over her trying to protect her from this new threat. the other shadows began swarming back towards her and her unknown assilant. they started slashing and clawing at him.

[JohnnyP789]

Atticis dodged, ducked and weaved as he was attacked by the shadows, he stabbed and slashed when he could, but it was only him against alot of enemies, and he got cut up and bruised, but he still fought. When he thought he had an opening, he was wrong. But he thinks he managed to atleast cut her, but nothing serious. Before long he was panting, and sweating from fighting off so many shadows, he was losing speed and it was getting harder to lift his sword, he got cut in the arm and growled, as he got stabbed in his other arm.

He backed off, limping slightly, and holding his arm that got stabbed,"Son of a.... That is one heck of a defence...." after he caught his breath, he went back at it, this time, getting more wounds on his arms, torso, sides and face, but he destroyed more of the shadows than before.

[Hunter_]

*The beast that looked like Hunter looked Cifro in the face for a second before these words came out*
"You took a life, now i will take yours."
*The beast put his theeth into the crat's arm and after he got bound by the ropes he absobed them with his magic, continuing towards Cassandra and strinking at Atticis's back before repetivly hitting him*

[Kaya]

Cassandra shrieks as more and more of her shadows die feeling the pain and then the emptiness after every single one of their deaths. there is no way that she was ever going to mount an attack like this again without finding some way to distance the pain. She struggles towards consciousness and when she awakes she is partially submerged in her own shadow. she trudges out of it and staggers back. There was someone taking advantage of her distraction. she had know idea how she was still alive until she saw all of the shadows piratically swarming around her. She had a few deep gashes on her arm and grabbed for her (i think its call an unigi, well any way a whip made out of  linked blades.) She slashes out with is staggering back a few more places then gutturally growls. the shadows stop their attack upon Atticus and went back to the aid of the others.
 
"this fight...." she says tiredly "is between you and me." She is still rather dizzy and trying to make sense of who's spectral and who's substantial.

aeron was never one to follow orders.....and atticus, as they had called them, was in mortal danger...he ran towards atticus and stood by his side "you take the girl i'll handle these things he said as he drew his twin katana and froze breathing in deeply through, his nose he perked his ears, and closed his eyes. in an instant he became a flurry of furiously executed blocks parries and thrusts a demon came at him with a large war-ax and attempted to cleave his head off, he feinted forewards, slipping under axe and sheild and buried his sword through the demons chest, withdrawing it as fast as he had deposited the cold metal into the unearthly being, he took the shadows seven at a time, relishing the heat of the battle.

[JohnnyP789]

Atticus was too focus to even know what hit him, but when he did, he smiled,"why hello there hunter... Nice of you to stop by." he grabbe a punch that was thrown, and snup around, still holding his fist, and hitting him in the neck as hard as he could making him drop faster than a sack of rocks, but he didn't have much time. He picked up hunter by the arm, spun around, and threw him as her as he could, back at cifero,"HERE YA GO!" he smiled, then his eyes widened as he saw a blade whip, coming for his face. He dodged it and smiled when she said it was between him and her,"okay then, lets go." he steppe to the side and looked at her.

He never really saw her before, but she was exausted and about to passout, he couldn't blame her, he was at that point as well. His arms were shaking, and he was wobbling slightly, but he didn't falter. He quickly stepped forward, and swung his sword as fas as he could, aiming to wound, not kill, but it wasn't as fast as he wanted it to be.

[Kaya]

Cassandra moved as fast as she could but it still ended up nicking her shoulder. she puts her arm behind her back wishing she had her gear. the enchanted gear would be a blessing to have now. she stumbles a bit and lashes out again this time a his legs.

[JohnnyP789]

He grunted when the whip blabe his his shoulder, his swors not een coming close to hitting her, but he smiled when he saw it was coming for his legs. He steppe back, out of range, and then ran up close and grapped her wrist so she couldn't attack him, and whispered into her ear,"I'm not gonna hurt you..." he stepped back and let go of her wrist, making it look like he got hit in the stomach, he raised his sword and smiled,"well? Come on then."

[kivabunny]

as he started on the last round of the shadows aeron cornered the final five shadows and quickly dispatched them. as he set the last one running, it ran past atticus, he couldnt get to it in time he threw one of his blades , and it went through the head of the shadow, burying shadow and blade in a nearby door.

[Kaya]

Cassandra winces as she feels the shadows die, and is confused by atticus words then steps back into her shadow and then out of his. She was starting to get even more worn out. she replied in his ear. " this is done for now. we will have our rematch later." she says before dissapearing again. she ends up inside a house and promptly vommits from all  the stain and pain.

[JohnnyP789]

He smiles and nods his head in reply, almost collapsing right there. When she left, he hit his knees and fell to the ground exausted, his cuts, and bruises, and possible broken rib from hunter, got the best of him, and he fell into unconciousness.

[kivabunny]

hearing a couple of bodies fall to the ground, aeron went to pick them up, guessing that (from their location) they were atticus and the girl, he then walked toward a frantic young boy and dropped a silver at his feet saaying "lead me to the best inn in this city that is still standing and you get a gold piece. the boy led the way and he rented a room at "the golden crown" inn for each of them, deciding he would call a doctor in the morning, he deposited the bodies in their respective rooms and headed  back to his to sleep.

[Hunter_]

*The Hunter-Beast saw Cassandra dissapear and roared loudly and put his arms into the ground*
"I...call upon the power of the deadric gods!" He shouted out with a otherworld-beastl like voice striking fear to ones that hear.
The ground shook, his now green-pathces that were bright red became utterly light, while fire appeared in a cricle, spreading, around him while being in-mobbile.
