Purple Moon (HM19)

Sometimes I hate the English language nothing is ever spelled how its pronounced. And its full of extra letters.

Half Moon 19

    Kat hisses and turns facing the man. He smiles and pulls the bone he had been using to fight out of his skin. Kat realizes he has to be at least an E1, but since he wasn't showing all of his strength, Kat wouldn't be surprised if he was an E3.

    He molds the bone into a sword, and Kat shifts her grip on the swords. She knows he would be difficult to handle even if she had more weapons and back up from Cade, but with only her main swords and no help, it would take everything she had and then some.

    She breathes slowly calming her self. She ignores her pounding head and everything else, only concentrating on fighting him. Her mussels loosen, and she can feel her mind clear. She flies towards him, clashing she swords against his. He goes to do the leg maneuver again, but she sees out coming and uses him as a springboard to jump into the air.

   She barely lands before she attacks him again. He blocks her attack and sends her flying through the air. She breaks through a wall of a house. She rises from the rubble of the wall and shakes her head to clear it. The world moves around her, and she stumbles to the opening that she created just in time to see the Alteration appear in the distance grinning.

    "Are you dead yet," Kat hears Cade call.

    "No, but you might be soon."

    Kat makes her way out of the house and into the street. "You better have someone call Silias," She yells eyeing the Alteration slowly making its way towards her.

    Cade whistles, "Are you having such a hard time that you need help."

    "Let's see you fight a Bone level E," she snaps.

    "Even if I call they're not going to get here very soon."

    "Just do it," She growls.

    Cade doesn't respond, but Kat doesn't care, the Alteration is within striking distance. Before he can say a smart comment, she jumps at him again. He deflects her attack as she suspected, and she uses his momentum to get spin herself into his block. He jumps away but not before she gives him a cut across his chest.

    Before he has a chance to recover, she goes after him again, but he dances away.

    "If you don't come at me more seriously, you might die, love."

    She had been hoping to stop him so that she could question him, but if he wanted her to be more serious, she would give him serious.

    Her attacks change pace as she aims for killing instead of maiming.  He has a harder time blocking, but he still acts like he's taking it easy. This frustrates Kat, and with each attack, her anger builds, causing her to hit harder and faster. Eventually, she gets through his guard and slices him from hip to shoulder.

    He backs off, clutching his bleeding wound. "That was a good hit, love, but I suppose its time for me to go."

    She goes to stab him, but he disintegrates in a pile of bones.
