A little blush tingled in Arisa's cheeks, as his hand settled against her arm - the faint<em>scrape</em>of sleek fabric echoing in her ears, her breath coming just a shade faster!<em>Not today, then,</em>she thought, with a mental sigh...It just wasn't going to work for him. Perhaps she'd been a bit *too* hasty...<br/><br/>-And really, what was faintly disappointing about his touch was how...ordinary it was. It didn't make her heart beat faster, didn't send a thrill through her other than by the nature of the fleeting contact...She'd expected something well - something<em>more</em>~!<br/><br/>But perhaps it wasn't a surprise, after all - Perhaps she'd been expecting *too* much! The air shimmered, motes of golden light gathering...And Arisa took a well-measured step back, as Cecil's sword flared to life! It cleaved the air with a humming, buzzing flicker...A golden blade that shone with an internal radiance - Long and harder than ever before-!<br/><br/>"Incredible," she murmured - Measured praise, from Arisa...Her gaze settling on the manifested weapon! A luminous radiance lapped against her skintight bodysuit - A hefty hand-and-a-half sword, one that Cecil wielded with an enthuaism that made up for his relative lack of skill! (Arisa certainly didn't begrudge them. For a beginner, he was learning the basics *really* fast-!)<br/><br/>"Your control - It's improving," she offered, with a slight smile - And she meant it, canting her head to the side as her silver hair caressed her pale cheeks! At some point, she was going to have to teach him how to<em>concentrate</em>his power, so he wouldn't be wielding a blade too large for him to carry...But one step at a time.<br/><br/>After all, they were only goblins.<br/><br/>Arisa passed her gloved hand before her, her brow furrowing - A sound like ice crystals chiming briefly before her, a brilliant spark gathering at her hands...And as she brought her palms apart, it became a slender blade - Curved, razor-sharp, so light it could nearly swing itself! Perfectly balanced, the lovely demon-huntress held it at her side, silvery light lapping against the frosted edge - While she wasn't as powerful as Cecil, she certainly had more<em>experience</em>. She'd pride herself on that-!<br/><br/>The platinum-haired beauty drew a deep breath - Even as she heard the first *shrieks* from within! The demons knew what was coming...And she had to admit - If she was them, she'd be terrified too!<br/><br/>"Shall we go~?" Arisa said, doing her level best to radiate just the right amount of tension, of concern, of confidence...After all - As they said - the show had to go on!<br/><br/>------<br/><br/>Flares of light...The slash-stab of a sunfire-bright blade...the shrieks of goblins being sheared apart-!<br/><br/><em>Look at him go,</em>Arisa thought - Pacing along behind Cecil, at a measured pace...His swordwork was still a bit sloppy, but he *was* tightening up his guard. It wasn't like he was in any real *danger* - the brilliant flare of his sword dazzled the shrieking goblins in his way, a heartbeat before his blade cleaved them in two! As she picked her way along, her sword at low guard, Arisa glanced down at the severed limbs underfoot...The edges of each cut glowing with a golden light, crisping away slowly-!<br/><br/>"He *is* doing rather well," she mused aloud, almost to herself - She was watching his back, but the goblins hadn't had the bright idea of mounting a flanking attack...Not that she could blame them - Anyone with *sense* would want to be as far, far from here as possible! He was driving forward, storming ahead, each sweep sending them absolutely scattering-<br/><br/>"Hmmmm~?" the soft purr thrummed from Arisa's silky throat, her crimson eyes flitting to the side! Another tunnel...She could hear faint sounds coming from within, hear *something* - She was pretty sure she was supposed to follow Cecil a<em>bit</em>further in, but...Another glance told her that he wasn't about to need her help-!<br/><br/><em>I wonder...</em><br/><br/>A cautious step, then another - And then Arisa was pacing down the corridor, her sword in hand...The first shiver coursing up her spine, at last...Her lissome legs eating up the distance, her lips curving in a slight smile...<br/><br/>Now *this* was more like it.<br/><br/>------<br/><br/>"Oh my *God*."<br/><br/>The low<em>gasp</em>pealed from Arisa's lips - A low, husky sound...Her hand going to her mouth, her body tensing - As her gaze fell on the redhead before her! Her nostrils flared, sleek throat working...What was this~?<br/><br/>Actually, that was a lie. She knew *exactly* what this was.<br/><br/>The goblins - They'd captured the woman, and they'd<em>fucked</em>her. Thoroughly. They must've pumped her so<em>full</em>of seed, again and again, until...<br/><br/>"Nnnnn-!" the soft hiss purred from her silky throat, as Arisa's back arched...She could *feel* her nipples stiffen, even as she whirled - turning at the sound of the voices...<br/><br/>And a *second* gasp pulsed from the very core of her being, when she got a good look at what she was up against. Goblins were universally a runty, rather pathetic kind of demon...But now, being confronted by them like this - Arisa's gaze settled on their obvious *leader*! For goblins, he must've been a paragon - Head-and-shoulders above the other goblins...And then her gaze drifted down further and-<br/><br/>Her breath caught. Her mouth went dry.<br/><br/>It wasn't that Arisa was a<em>virgin</em>- She'd a fumbling experience with another boy, when she was in Europe...She wasn't sure where that might've gone, because a lobster demon had snipped his head off. She'd always considered herself to be above it, but there was something about this place...It made her breath come faster, faster, her full chest heaving, creamy thighs squeezing together...<br/><br/>Oh right. The goblins.<br/><br/>As they closed in, skittering and chattering, Arisa raised her sword...And she brought the blade down! When the crystal blade sheared into the stony ground, frost radiated forth - Expanding outwards on all sides, a wave of rippling cold that cut to the bone-!<br/><br/>The goblins that were furthest away became statues. Those that were nearest became shards.<br/><br/>In the abrupt stillness that followed the explosion of ice, Arisa straightened, s-l-o-w-l-y...A hand coming to rest on her curvy hip-! She was breathing hard, hard and fast...A little shiver racing up her spine - That hot tingle beneath her creamy skin, burning hot and cold at once...<br/><br/>"-Nice try, boys~" the sound of her own voice...Usually cool, controlled!...made her own eyes widen. She sounded - Husky, breathy. Sultry.<br/><br/><em>Aroused</em>.<br/><br/>She wasn't supposed to *talk* to demons. She wasn't supposed to do anything but kill them. But she could<em>feel</em>a heady excitement coiling within her, as her gaze settled on the leader...Shifting her stance, subtly, her feet arched high on heeled boots - An alarmingly casual stance, her sword dangling loose in one hand! She was so<em>aware</em>of her body, in a way like never before...Aware of the hungry gazes on her luscious form, and the perverse thrill of knowing that they couldn't *hurt her*-!<br/><br/><em>Oh my God - What *am* I doing~?</em><br/><br/>Whatever it was - She wasn't about to stop!<br/><br/>"...Who's next~?" she inquired, a slim eyebrow arching - Her costume felt so, so tight, as she leaned forward ever-so-slightly...Her eyes half-lidded beneath long, long lashes! This felt so *wrong* - And yet...And yet, so *exciting*-! Arisa could feel a smile play over her full lips...That<em>I can't believe I'm-</em>sensation thrilling through her, aware that she had their fullest attention, as she whispered...<br/><br/>"-Unless...You want to try and<em>get me</em>by *yourself*...?"<br/><br/>Banter. Nothing wrong with that. Except-<br/><br/>"-stud~?"<br/><br/>Not<em>handsome</em>-<em>Stud</em>. It sounded thick, meaty,<em>lusty</em>- Making her think vividly of thrusting and pumping and the woman moaning dazedly at her back...Even as the *heat* within Arisa became just a little more intense-!
