ASHƎ
She was a storm: sudden;
powerful;
violent;
devastating;
The air that had been so noticeably tense seemed to ease with a gentle breeze, pulling at her short hair and brushing against her skin. Ashe took a deep breath and glanced once at the gathering crowd in the distance before she looked back at at her three comrades. They had a plan. They had better weapons, they were stronger, they weren’t caught off guard this time… or so the assassin thought.
There would be no further conversation. No planning. No drawing the beast out. Percy tossed his head with an agitated snort, and she looked up with narrowed eyes at the unicorn. And then everything happened all at once. Remi called out for them to fucking move, and the demon was upon them. Ashe didn't have time to consider what happened, what had already gone wrong. She only grabbed a fistful of Percy's mane and hauled herself onto his back. "Go!" she commanded, but he needed no verbal tell. The stallion snorted and launched himself away from the claws that narrowly missed Remi, and.. from the fangs that did sink into Roana. In the next second Ronin’s fist was heading for the hideous beast’s face, and Ashe was galloping in an arc around the rumbling earth with a low curse. She didn’t think now, there wasn’t time. Ashe guided Percy back from the immediate frey, just barely in range, her lip feathering into something that resembled a snarl. She knew by now how to keep stray bolts from striking at her friends, and so it was with wholly mastered aim and control the wild lightning burst forth from her hand. Percy only pinned his ears at the sound, back end rising a bit too high, but the assassin did not waver in her attack. Ashe hopped on Percy and hauled ass to get out of range! She has sent a blast of mastered lightning magic to fry the spire demon and do the intended damage. and utterly magnificent. |
