Rae felt the blade graze her skin as Elizabeth made a pass at her. She took the blow with a growling sound. It had to sound as realistic as possible.<br/><br/>She jumped backwards, letting her hand grab onto the nearest rung of the nearby ladder. She heard Elizabeth's clumsy manuver and she hoped up the ladder to the next level as the knife hit the stone where her head had been moments ago.<br/><br/>Rae laughed, "Come now Elizabeth. I expected a bit more of a fight. You can't be giving up on me already. I know you don't want to go home with the Beasty." she tossed out the barb more to infuriate the Beast more than anything. Although she knew it might help to encourage the woman to move fast and get up here.<br/>"I am waiting for you dear. I want this to be a fair fight, despite the whims of our funny little friend there. He is just jealous that he has to use tools to accomplish his work. Heavens forbid he do it  honorable like nature intended."<br/><br/>Rae was ready for whatever might come. She winked at Elizabeth and made sure she was close to the edge should the Beast let loose with his whip, it would catch her instead of Elizabeth.<br/><br/>"You are almost there." she mouthed to the woman, hoping she could see them.<br/><br/>
