"Well, you may begin. The targets are a mile north, in a single story hut. As for any other information, the alchemist is also a powerful necromancer as well."

"I will be waiting for you here once you return."
Claud
Mai nodded in agreement and understanding, and then started walking in the direction that the hut was in. A necromancer could be a big problem for her. Since she performed better with just one target, but with her new equipment, she might have a better chance of success. She continued to walk until she reached the right place.
Julie
*Only a dinky little hut would be there, with one window. There would be no other entrances, besides the door. It doesn't look like anything special. Had the man tricked her, or given her false information?*
Claud
Upon arriving, Mai came across a simple hut, and decided to look around to make sure it was the right place. It seemed... Too simple. Her eyebrow would arch with a little confusion and doubt. *Is this the right place...?* She thought while slowly approaching the hut, her right hand positioned so she could take one of her throwing knives from her thigh accessory, if needed.
Julie
*Nothing would happen when Mai got closer. Then, groaning is suddenly heard from inside. A feminine voice can be heard, and she sounds weak.*

"Do you feel it?"

*Another voice, this one male, would reply. One could guess he was in between young and middle aged, perhaps in his late 30's.*

"I can feel it. I can feel the power coursing through my veins!"
Claud
"Wha-"

Mai looked a little more confused than before, but she would soon remember that there was an alchemist in there. He seemed to be experimenting with, apparently, a man. She would come a little closer to take a closer look at the hut and see if the window was open, always trying to make as little noise as possible.
Julie
*As Mai peeks through the window, she would see not two, but three figures. One was a female vampire, who apparently was exhausted, laying on a bed. A tall man would be putting on his robes, but Mai would spot two blood trails on his neck beforehand. The last figure would be a massive, dead, armored Oni, with a chest plate, longsword and a round shield. It would speak up.*

"Seems like it worked, boss."
Claud
Mai would carefully analyze each individual. Apparently, she wouldn't have much of a problem with the vampire, but the Oni would definitely prevent her from reaching out to the alchemist. She then bent down and leaned her back against the wall of the hut, some thoughts racing through her mind. She would then wait a little longer to be able to act, since she needed to know what 'worked'.
Julie
*The alchemist would speak up.*

"You ok, honey?"

*The vampire would reply back. It seems like they have a relationship.*

"I-I'm fine, dear. Just that the process feels so good, but I end up so tired afterward..."

*The undead Oni would do nothing, except move a bit.*
Claud
*Process of what...?* Mai thought and peeked through the window again, taking advantage of her natural traits and trying to not be noticed by one of them. Apparently the alchemist had blood running down from his neck. It could mean only one thing... But, why would him want that? And the vampire and him seemed to have a relationship, which Mai could take advantage of if none of her plans worked.
Julie
*The undead Oni would seemingly sniff the air.*

"Hey boss? I think someone's here."

*The alchemist would respond.*

"You sure you don't smell another bear again, Dangar?"

"I'm sure of it. There's less fur on this one. Smells nice too."

"Alright, go check it out, then?"

*Mai would be able to hear the undead Oni walk closer and closer to the window. It was now or never.*
Claud
Mai took a deep breath when she heard that her presence was noticed by the Oni. She would then wait patiently while she felt his steps with her back against the wall. It was her chance. Her claws would extend, hoping that they could feel flesh again. If the Oni stuck his head out the window when trying to look for her, Mai would look up and attack him with her claws, towards his head. If possible, she would try to hit his eyes.
Julie
*The Oni would look out the window, looking far and wide, oblivious to the woman under him.*

"I swear I smelled a woman..."

*And then it hits him. Literally. Sharp steel claws, well, claw his left eye out. However, he simply ignores it, and looks down at the assassin. It looks like he's immune to pain.*

"Hey, rude."

*He would then thrust at her with the longsword. Meanwhile, movement can be heard from inside. It sounds like the man is moving his darling behind him.*
Claud
*Oh no...* Mai thought before rolling over to the side, hoping the sword wouldn't hurt her. She would then get up quickly and face the Oni, realizing that pain does not affect him. Well, now she would have to find a way to kill him... Although, the alchemist was a necromancer, so anyway she had to try to focus the man inside the house instead of the Oni.
Julie
*Rustling can be heard, and the feminine voice speaks.*

"I-is there someone outside? Now?"

*The man would reply.*

"It does seem like someone's here. It's alright, we'll take care of her, and we can go back to bed. Dangar!"

*The Oni would begin to move inside. Looks like Mai lost her aspect of surprise.*
Claud
Since she no longer had the element of surprise in her attack, Mai would wait until Oni came outside, as fighting with that thing inside a not-so-large hut would not be a good idea.
Julie
*The Oni would stay back, knowing that his priority was to protect his boss.*

"Don't worry boss. You'll be fine!"
Claud
Mai needed a way to draw the Oni to her. Her right hand ran over her thigh and took one of her throwing knives, pointing it towards the window, and if possible towards the couple, throwing it as closer to the two as possible.
Julie
*As Mai launches her knives, the metal blades would stick themselves in the massive round shield. It seems like the oni's too close for any ranged attacks. Looks like she'll have to go in.*
Claud
Mai, seeing that the Oni would protect them from ranged attacks, decided to approach them. When getting closer to them, and ending up entering the hut, she would wait for the Oni to attack her. Since she was apparently faster than him, it was better to wait and see his position.
Julie
"A woman? I didn't expect a female assassin. The boss must have sent you, huh. I expected an army."

*Once in the hut, it would actually prove to be quite spacious, about 20 feet to move around on either side. The Oni would wait about 10 feet in front of her. Various potions and liquids rested in glass bottles on the right wall.*

*The vampire would seem to be covering herself up with the bedsheets, a bit fearful. The alchemist would be tying up a robe, his chest bare. It seems like it was the only thing he had at the moment. The Oni would keep his sword and shield trained on Mai, the two steel daggers sticking out.*
Claud
Mai smirked at the alchemist's words, her blue eyes alternating between the Oni and the couple behind him. She would then move slowly towards the potions, taking the weirdest one there. She would then look at it, and then at the alchemist.

"What is this for?"

Despite looking a little silly asking questions instead of fighting, Mai wanted to know if something there could help her, from her vision of the expression the alchemist did, indicating whether it was something important or not. After all, it would be difficult to fight that Oni face to face.
Julie
*The alchemist would smile.*

"You don't know, do you? Many of the potions there are mundane, only working for specific people. Many others also only work when consumed, and it's not fun."

*The wight would speak up.*

"What's your business here? If you want to fight, fight. If you want to steal, steal."
Claud
It looked like she had no choice, Mai would have to fight that thing in front of her. Despite knowing that it would not be easy, she decided to show that she was not afraid of him, after all, showing weakness would only make it worse. She smiled again and faced the Oni, slowly approaching him. The only thing she expected was to see what he was doing, since she couldn't risk attacking him and being hit by the sword. She had to find a way to end his weapons... Her claws would extend again, ready to attack or react.
Julie
"Very well."

*The Oni would begin to walk towards the woman, towering over her. He stabs at her using the longsword holding his shield in front of his torso.*
Claud
Upon seeing Oni stabbing her, Mai would try to dodge to the side, despite not having much speed dodging things. She would then, wounded or not, try to hit the oni's arm that held the sword with her claws. And if possible, move away from him a little to reposition herself.
Julie
*The hulk of a demon would prove to be quite slow compared to the assassin, ignoring the large claws creating deep gouges on his gray flesh. He would perform a vertical slash at Mai's neck level, but her reposition allows her to move out of the way.*

*The alchemist's hands glow purple. It seems like he wants Mai out, now. He launches a sphere of dark energy at the intruder.*
```Plague bolt cast```
Claud
Mai would try to dodge again, now from the alchemist's attack, dodging to the left. So, if she was successful, she would try to hit the Oni again, now aiming at his other eye. If she had been hit by the alchemist's spell, she would have backed off and waited for a next attack.
Julie
*Mai is able to swiftly dodge the plague bolt, and as she leaps and tries to claw at the other eye, the oni moves his shield in the way, her claws digging into the wood. He raises the shield high, and tries to slam Mai into the floor. The alchemist does nothing as Mai has placed the oni between the two.*
Claud
Mai would have the advantage that the Oni raised his shield, and would raise her leg to support on his arm, her claws sinking into the skin of the arm that held the sword. After that, she would try to move her leg towards his head, taking advantage of the fact that he was unprotected, Mai would at least try to hit his eye if possible. If this attack was a failure, she would try to retract her claws and move away from the shield, towards the alchemist and the woman.
Julie
*Mai's claws would create deep cuts into the wight's flesh, the arm now obviously starting to fall apart, but no other damage could be done. The oni steps back as fast as he can to protect his master, but the alchemist is already prepared. His hands crackle with lightning as a lightning bolt is fired at the assassin.*
