Red lines were streaked over Tandoori's clothing and skin, trails of blood that snaked their way around his body. He wasn't sure if his blows had killed or simply stunned the guards. But did that really matter?

Tandoori stopped short as thorn sharp pain shot through him. Looking down, he found the wavy blade of a Flamberge protruding from his stomach.

(Am I being too graphic?)

Atrir watched as the guards fought "we can't win" she though as she was struck hard by a metallic object "we simply can't win" the words floated in her head as she sank into darkness

"Not good enough," Tandoori growled, feeling the warm rush of blood. Stumbling forward, he freed himself from the weapon, turning to face his attacker.

(Who wants to be the attacker?! It should be the head guard or something.)

[You ain't bein too graphic, its ok. And I volunteer whitecat I dun wanna be a guard.]

Phobos flew up and let a barrage of sharp feathers fly straight at the mass of guards. A few fell, others stunned. He swooped down to attack another guard when he felt something pierce his neck. He felt himself spiraling downwards and tried to move, but couldn't. He crashed into the ground and everything went dark...

[Woohoo! Super Special Secret Epic Feather Barrage!]

(ok, i'll be the guard )

The guard snarled viciously, the patch on his uniform showing his rank. He lunged at Tandoori again, a grim and determined look on his face.

Tandoori growled, jumping back and dodging the head guard's attack. "You think you can take me?" he asked, holding his wound, though smiling slyly.

The guard stepped on Atrir's throat "i can take you on with a hand tied behind my back" he hissed

"Why do you guards enjoy hurting women?" Tandoori asked, tackling the guard. He knocked the man over, pulling him in to a choke hold.

The man jerked his elbow back causing it to hit Tandoori's injured stomach

Tandoori cried out in pain, releasing the guard. "You," he growled, clutching his shoulder. Blood was still dribbling from the wound in his stomach. In one fluid movement, the +Anima drew his sword. "Let's finish this quickly.

the guard let out a deep chuckle his weapon was clutched tightly in his hand, the end dripping blood

"Are you ready to die?" Tandoori asked, his eyes narrowing. He could see the bat girl a little ways off, being held be the wrist by a guard. "None of you will be forgiven."

Atrir's eyes flew open and she coughed, sitting upright she felt hr throat "you broke my collar!" she roared holding a thick leather band with a silver bell on it. She snapped her leg out causing the guard to trip. Her canines extended further, causing them to hang just a little below her chin

Tandoori laughed decisively. "This is the end for you and all the others that think they can control me."

Atrir snarled quietly "get away from me!" the guard roared. "oh so now your scared?" she asked "i can take on a fluffy little panda just fine but i can't handle his girlfriend too" the guard snapped
