*Vorim notices her walking closer to him, but just chooses to not pay attention. The shouting coming from the village can now be heard my Anri too as they get closer.*
English
-
"Well, that's just grand..." [i]She walked beside Vorim, going silent as the three began to approach the village. Anri was actually somewhat nervous, to tell the truth.[/i]
-
*The shouting seems to sound different as you get closer. It's more like screams of terror than shouting.* [u][b]N-No... No no no no...[/b][/u] *Vorim breaks into a jog and then into a run.*
-
[i]Anri kept moving, silently drawing her coiled blade as she still went onwards into the village. She had to find out what was going on...and fast.[/i]
-
*Vorim and Sapphire get down to a building and look around the corner. They both gasp in unison.* [u][b]O-Oh my god![/b][/u]
-
"What?!" [i]Anri simply followed them, looking down at the scene and expecting the worst. She expected somebody to be dead, really.[/i]
-
*People line the streets, parents are forcing their children back into their houses. They are all watching Sketch being dragged up the street, unconscious. But what's dragging him is even scarier and more disturbing. A black figure, seemingly made of some pitch black liquid is dragging him. Its whole body is rippling and sections of it seem to remove themselves, hover in one place and then reattach in the same place. A grey aura surrounds it and tiny droplets of the black liquid float upwards off of it and disappear.* [u][b]THAT THING HAS SKETCH!!![/b][/u] *Sapphire was frozen in disbelief.*
-
"...What the hell?! No!" [i]Leaping down onto the street, Anri began to slowly approach, waving the coiled sword out to her side. Red flames had begun to surround her body suddenly.[/i]
-
*It turns around showing two circular glowing white eyes on rippling black liquid. Suddenly the front of his head starts turning grey and William's face appears.* *William "Oh, you? Ha! I should kill you now and have you go crazy! That'll make Wolfy upset when he wakes up!" *William lifts Sketch up by the collar, shaking him a little. Vorim and Sapphire follow Anri, Vorim's eyes turning blue then yellow.*
-
[i]Silently approaching, lightning had begun to form within Anri's left hand. An aura of heat was surrounding her body, and the area had begun to heat up ridiculously.[/i]
-
*Vorim and Sapphire stay back, realizing that it's getting really hot and their fur certainly isn't helping.* *William "What? Are you trying to cook me? I wouldn't do that because Wolfy's here too!"
-
[i]Anri simply ignored him, still silently approaching. In truth, she was just really pissed at the moment, she just wanted to kill William.[/i]
-
*William "Meh, fine. Kill Wolfy too then."
-
[i]Stopping suddenly, Anri simply slammed the sword into the ground, the blade magnifying into a 6'3 foot long flaming greatsword as she tore it from the ground.[/i] [b]"This'll be quick."[/b] [i]She began approaching slowly once more, going silent as she did so.[/i]
-
*William starts approaching as well, his other arm extending into a long, jagged spike.*
-
[i]Shaking her head simply, Anri raised the greatsword, waiting for William to attack, Something said that actually wanted him to attack.[/i]
-
*He suddenly lunges, swinging Sketch at her as he was a weapon.*
-
[i]Anri simply lowered the greatsword, ducking under Sketch and heading towards William's knees, swinging the sword at his feet.[/i]
-
*His legs get cut off at the knees and he falls, stabbing at Anri with the spike.*
-
[i]Instead of simply letting the spike tear through her, Anri swung at it, bashing it away with the sword. She stood up straight, stepping on William's arm that wasn't holding Sketch.[/i]
-
*William's arm turns, to liquid, melting underneath her foot and then engulfing it in black liquid.*
-
[b]"COWARD."[/b] [i]Anri slammed the sword down at her feet, the flames beginning to burn away at the liquid. Since it was solid, it could probably engulf the sword, but not extinguish the raging fire that was present on its blade.[/i]
-
*He seems immune to it, engulfing her other leg in liquid too.* *William "How? I'm attacking you aren't I?"
-
[b]"Not really."[/b] [i]Anri simply stood in place, lowering the sword for some odd reason. She simply looked down, staring quite evilly at where William was.[/i]
-
*William "How about now?" *Spikes seem to be very very slowly driving themselves into her legs.*
-
[b]"...Pathetic."[/b] [i]Anri had gone through something like this before in the past thirteen years, and at this point, she was basically immune to pain, although she still suffered consequences that any normal human would from wounds. So she was likely to fall over from this.[/i]
