The feel of every slight air current, the falling of cooling air in the wake of the flaming hands, even the slightest sense of exerted breath from Linfei's mouth, all these things ran across Ylene's hypersensitive skin as she shut her eyes and let her body sense take over.  Countless hours training with the monks and now it was a life or death situation, and it all came as natural as her next breath.  There was too great a chance to miss the constantly shifting image of the wizard in front of her, but take away those shifting images, rely on the feel of the flow of ki across her sensitive nipples, the cool minuscule movement of air across her sex, the every sound in the room, reverberating a thousand times diminished a thousand ways, but all still active.  No magical illusion could fool that sixth sense.  While she could sense the combat in the rest of the room, Linfei who was right next to her might as well have been a glowing beacon in the night.<br/><br/>So her first blow landed directly and should have set her up for a follow up.  Her second would have landed were it not for a slick patch on the floor no bigger than a large coin.  Even as she slid and fouled her own blow, she smelt the salty tangy odor of cum, laced with a distinct scent that matched the wizard.<br/><br/>Her taunts may have had an effect on the wizard, for his snarl of anger spoke of them hitting at least close to the mark, but he dipped behind the corner of his desk, trying to put any barrier between them.  He was likely not aware of Ylene's sixth sense, blinded as he was.  But his fingers worked frantically, something ylene could sense even though he'd moved away slightly, and he called out, "You fool, you're as bad as your whore mistress.  Short sighted fools, you think that the Anajial is simply meant for your own pleasure.  But it is so much more, has the potential for so much more...  Why don't you just<em><strong>STOP</strong></em>and listen to reason?"<br/><br/>The word stop carried arcane weight, and Ylene felt her muscles tighten up as if her body wanted to follow the command given.  But then Hailton's voice cried out over the din of the snarling hell hound.  Her arcane words meant nothing to Ylene, but the effect was instant.  Linfei's spell was countered, fizzling away miserably into nothingness.  However the futadrow's words were familiar to Ylene as she recognized the sounds of a healing spell being muttered quietly.<br/><br/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Spoiler: Click to Show/Hide</div><div class="spoiler_body">ooc - Linfei tried to cast hold person, but Hailton was holding her action to counter any spell he cast.</div></div>
