<strong>Name:</strong>Ariel Al'kiir (http://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=149383.msg6780446#msg6780446)<br/><strong>Location:</strong>Gehenna's, table off to the side of the bar<br/><strong>Tag:</strong>Whoever it may concern<br/><hr/><br/>Things had gone to shit.  Before they could organize and analyze their opponents a random Archon and Centaur had attacked.  From experience Ariel had expected a greater challenge.  So when the demon revitalized his comrades it was no surprise.  It was slightly more impressive the second time he did it.<br/><br/>During all this, Ariel hadn't moved from the side room's entrance.  She'd taken cover when gunfire had filled the room.  Never know when someone had magical bullets, and if a crew had decided to assault them here, in this pocket dimension that should've been fairly secure, that crew had the means.  Caution was always the better side of valor.<br/><br/>She had returned fire at the necromancer and the human thugs more to keep them honest and decrease the bullet spray than anything.  She was more interested in watching her, for the time being, allies and the demon's minions.  She had a bunch of brawlers on her side.  Semi-skilled fighters but not really disciplined.  Her one hope was that the demoness who'd strolled nonchalantly to the bar to have a drink was actually half as good as she was cocky.<br/><br/>With the thugs turned to zombies and the necromancer occupied with controlling his puppets, Ariel stepped out from her cover just in time for the Kitsune to steal some of her blood.  She'd have to have a word with the bouncer for corrupting her blood for such a use, if he survived.  Still it seemed like it was a good way to get the enemy Lieutenant angry.  A thin smile touched the angel's lips when the demoness decided to get involved.  It was the distraction Ariel had been waiting for.<br/><br/>The barrel of her silver Berretta came to her lips and Ariel spoke softly a payer in Latin, blessing the gun and turning it into a holy weapon.  Two shots were aimed at the enemy demon, enough to break his focus.  Another at the massive fog pinning Shizuru.  Ariel hoped the holy energy would dispel the creation.<br/><br/>Gun moved to its holster, and blade was taken in both hands.  Then with the speed of bird of prey, Ariel crossed the room.  The demon in the pinstripes was her target.  He was the greatest threat.  Unlike the Archon before her, or the samurai demoness, Ariel's attack wasn't reckless and it wasn't slow.  She aimed to test his defenses while keeping her own defenses tight.  With a bit of luck her plan would come together.  The creation would be dispelled allowing Shizuru to join her.  Two versus one was always an advantage.  If the Archon wasn't badly injured, he could join as well.  Three versus one, even better.  Ariel was an angel, a soldier of heaven, but none of that meant she had to play fair.
