Jasper stared wordlessly as they were surrounded by skeletons trying to figure out his first move. He was doubly surprised when Tristina walked down from the alter and pressed herself against him, her hand tracing his tattoo. The moment her hand touched his tattoo it set his blood boiling and his loins surging, he barely fought back the urge to take her right here. He leaned down and kissed her lips and whispered in her ear.<br/><br/>"Sorry love." As he brought the pommel of his sword down on her head knocking her out. As she crumpled to the ground unconscious he felt his Tattoo tearing again which almost sent him to the ground. Some how he was able to stay on his feet and keep his weapon in hand. Jasper stepped onto the altar with his sword in hand and yelled at the large one with the black blade.<br/><br/>It charged him and Jasper blocked its blade with his own the darkness of the blade seemed to flow around his blade and suck the energy out of him. Jasper bounced back and landed flat on his back on the alter waiting for the perfect moment. The beast walked to Jasper and stood over him Sword raised high into the air over its head. The sword came down with a resounding crack as it cracked the alter. Jasper rolled away from the blade right before it hit the alter and jumped up with lightning reflexes swinging his blade at the monster and cutting off its sword hand. Jasper kicked it off of the altar and turned and grabbed the sword. He lifted it up and brought it back down over and over until the crack in the altar became a deep crevice reaching all the way to the ground underneath. Black smoke seemed to seep up out of the crack. Jasper ran to Tristina swords in hand and scooped her up running out of the cavern, the skeletons entranced by the black smoke. Jasper put Tristina down out side the cavern and stood watching what would happen this way if the skeletons came back at him they would be bottle necked.<br/><br/>Jasper watched swords in hand as the black smoke leached out of the skeletons leaving them to break down back into piles. He watched as the cloud gathered becoming darker and darker before seeming to dissipate. Jasper looked down at Tristina who was still unconscious he hoped it was done now. He picked Tristina up and carried her back to the mouth of the cave and laid her down next to the blanket he set the two swords down by his pack then took off his boots and belt also putting them down. He walked back over to Tristina and peeled of her still soaked clothes laying them out next to his. Tired and ready for sleep He pulled Tristina against him front to front and pulled the blanket over them. His arms around her, he rested his head on top of hers and went to sleep.
