As she sprinted, the second tendril swept across the floor and bashed her legs. She was tripped and she fell to the ground. Then, Felix transformed into a massive horde of bats which darted towards Arianna as she lay on the ground.

-
Arianna didn't bother to watch as Felix came towards her, rolling upwards and getting back onto her feet. She couldn't waste time against Felix, as he was extraordinarily dangerous and random now..
-
The bats however rushed Ari's position as she regained her composure. She felt them all smack into her and she immediately felt dozens of bats biting at her body and her skin. She felt her feet lift off the ground as the bats sent her up into the air, and then let her fall to the ground five feet below.
-
Arianna gagged with pain once more, crashing onto the floor yet forcing herself to rise up in her agony. Standing, she looked back at Felix, preparing for what Count Dracula had in store next.
-
The man transformed into himself in the air, and he came down upon Ari. His blades were pointed downwards like an eagle reaching out to its prey.
-
As Arianna looked up, she rolled to the side, some feet away. Once she regained her composition, she threw her remaining dagger at Felix as he landed.
-
Felix's blades impaled the ground as he landed, but the dagger had an exposed target. It spiralled over and impaled his side, and he let out a yellow pain as he tore his blades from the ground and stumbled back away from Ari.
-
At this rate, Arianna had gone to a vicious style of combat, seeking only to inflict as much damage as possible upon Felix. With him stumbling away, she furiously drew her 9mm pistol and fired three shots towards his ribcage, expecting a shield to appear however.
-
Felix however didn't react quickly enough to stop from being shot in his rib. He quickly transformed into a swarm of bats after blood splattered from his chest, and the horde dashed over to Ari as another two bats were shot out of the air. Then, he transformed in front of her, and swung both his Kukris horizontally at his target.
-
Arianna would have to sacrifice her well-being more, as she jolted towards the side that the frost kukri had been swung out, effectively avoiding the electric kukri while the frost effectively sliced through her arm, a pained yell escaping the girl's mouth as her left arm glistened with her own blood. As the dark red liquid dripped from her arm, Arianna holstered her pistol and drew her nodachi, readying herself for Felix's arrival.
-
Blood poured from Ari's fresh wound, and she felt he tole of it as well as it froze up with ice and froze the small section of her arm with frostbite. Felix, hastily, thrusted forward with his elective Kukri as he slashed towards Arianna's throat with his frost blade.
-
Arianna reacted fast, having to shift her body and strafe to the side once more, effectively dodging the stab and swinging her nodachi, the elongated handle bashing back the frozen blade as she swung towards Felix's already injured stomach. With luck? She believed that she could maneuver out of CQC and put Felix into an even worse state.
-
The small blade cut across the leather padding of Felix's chest. Blood splattered as she saw she tore through the armour and cut the skin underneath. He yelled but didn't give her the pleasure of relishing in her victory as he shot a ball of ice out from his left hand as he dropped his blade to the ground. The ball of ice flew and immediately hit Ari in the face, and felt like how she assumed it would have felt to be pegged in the face with a hard ball of ice. Then, a bolt of electricity shot out from his right hand, which hit Ari in the chest and sent her flying and crashing into the right wall of the throne room.
-
[i]Arianna was in utter agony - as she slammed against the wall, a pained squall left her mouth, as her body forced itself off of the structure. The side of her face was now bleeding, blood dripping from her mouth while she twitched with pain. She felt as if she would throw up, yet continued towards Felix, merciless in her cause.[/i]
-
"Won't you just know when to die?!" Felix asked as blood spewed from his own wounds. A bolt of lightning formed in his closed right fist as Ari got closer.

Edited by Weeaboo Of War: 6/28/2017 8:02:20 PM"I wonder the same about you.." Arianna sputtered out, stopping. Her eye twitched a little, her fists tightly clad around her weapon as she waited for Felix.
-
"Gyah! Make these easier on both of us, and get yourself killed! It is inevitable anyways!" Felix told her. "You don't stand a chance against me! So you may as well try to end this now!"
-
"Is that why you're screaming and begging like a sick puppy? For me to kill you? ...I'd rather watch you die." And with that, Arianna smiled. Her plan was to draw Felix out in his fury, for he was wounded enough for her to finish this with a swift counter.
-
Felix yelled as he charged at Ari and thrusted the lightning bolt forwards, if she was quick enough, she could make her move. [spoiler]certain hit granted.[/spoiler]
-
With the last bit of energy that she had left, Arianna yelled with a ferocity to match a lion's, as she charged towards Felix: she strafed past the bolt, before returning to Felix and, quite literally, cutting him in half: the nodachi cleaved through his stomach region, slicing through the backbone as blood splattered over Arianna's body. With one final roar, the girl tore out the sword, landing upon her knees only to turn back and watch Felix's body. To ensure death, of course - he would bleed out, regularly..
-
A deafening cry went throughout the room as the entire throne room shook and trembled. Felix looked up at the roof, his eyes blank as his legs were separated from his body. But then, he began to melt. His entire body seemed to turn to a liquid like a disgusting bowl of ice cream in hot weather. His matter pooled across the floor and began to bubble as it did so. The liquid moved across the floor and towards the throne like it had a mind of its own. It then gathered together and all the liquid hovered and formed into a ball of blood.
-
Arianna sickly looked up the formulating ball of blood, backing away from it as she steadied herself. She knew that Felix was a necromancer of some sort.. but this was something of darker proportions.
-
A beam of blood shot out from the ceiling from the lake that was above Ari, and into the ball. As soon as it made contact the light in the room was snuffed out completely, but then the torches relit themselves a second after. Then, to Ari's beguile, Felix stood in front of the throne, as if nothing had even happened. "Hmph! I dare say Arianna, you are particularly vicious."
-
"Particularly? What a fuсking joy.." Arianna muttered, breathing in slowly. If the lake was the source of the revival, or at least the ball of blood.. could she have tried controlling the blood? Her speed was enhanced incredibly thanks to the abilities from Irina that had kicked, but failure was not an option now.
-
Felix checked his nails as he stepped away from the throne and closer to Ari. "Isn't it?" He said cockily. He looked up at the ceiling after seeing the girls glance and he drew a grin on his face. "Think you can do it? Arianna? Try it. It would make an interesting experiment." He told her, challenging her own thoughts.
-
"...That's not normal blood, is it?" Arianna muttered, hoping that she would get a smartass remark from Felix. If anything, after seeing Isaac's capabilities... he would likely have some counters to blood-bending, or he was bluffing.
