Banishment

Myst would stand before the white demon, smoke billowing off of her body. As she felt her energy quickly being eaten at. She knew she had to end this quick. Or she would be the one biting the bullet.

Lunging forwards she would find the earth around her shifting forward. Almost as if it were closing in on itself. Before she found herself in front of the demon landing another intense blow to its ribcage. Sending it flying back a few feet.

Taking a deep breath she'd shake her head. As a wave of dizziness ran through Myst's body. This definitely had a different feeling than teleportation. Since it didn't break down her body atom by atom to ensure. It was like her body was being pushed through a straw. And it definitely didn't appreciate the feeling.

Taking a deep breath she tried to steady herself enough to focus on the fight. But her dizziness suddenly turned into pain as the demon slashed her acrossed her chest. Causing pain to ripple through her body. Stumbling back from the blow, Myst drew her knives. Awaiting it's next strike against her.

Which this time came from behind her. As another piercing pain shot through her body. Yelping out in pain, she would spin around swinging with her knife. Only to find purchase in the air.

Eyes widening Myst would force herself to use her ability once more. Sending her to the edge of the cavern she was within. Placing her back against the wall. She would fight another wave of dizziness as it shot through her body violently.

This was definitely not time for her body to be betraying her. Especially if she hoped to match the demons speeds.

Pressing her back against the wall. The demon would apparate before her. Slashing across her body with a X slash. Causing more of her blood to spill to the ground.

Gasping in pain she would raise her arms to defend herself from the next slash of the demon. Which came only a mere instant later with a barrage of slashes.

If the pain caused by this was anything comparable to a death by a thousand paper cuts. Myst surely understood how those who suffered it in ancient china felt.

The pain of it was absolute torture and there was nothing she could do to stop it. As she felt all of her strength quickly draining from her body. As her ability ate at her stamina. And her blood loss left the remainder of her body weak.

Pushing past that. Myst would focus on the speed the demon was moving. As she forced herself to meet it's speeds, barely blocking some of it's strikes. With more of her blood splattering onto the ground. Pushing past the waves of dizziness and pain. She was slowly catching up to the demons strikes.

Myst would finally managing to block the demons head. Pushing against the weakness she felt. She'd finaly begin to parry blows. Begining to push forward. Gaining ground against the demon.

The realization came to the demon a moment too late. When one of Mysts knives found itself imbedded in the demons side. Its blueish-grey blood splattering onto the ground.

Smiling and breathing heavily. Myst would twist the knife withing the demon. Forcing it to stumble back.

"Finally...caught up....to you" Myst would pant out. As she let go of the knife, and using her ability to zoom past it. And slashing through it with her remaining dagger.

Spinning around she would stop short. As a wave of sharp pain shot through her chest. As the demon stood mere inches before her. Its clawed hand sticking out from between her breasts. Her blood trickling down her chest. Coughing up blood, her eyes would widen as she gasped for air. As pain shot through her essence.

Raising its clawed hand it would swing down upon her. Only to be met with a dagger and a defiant look on her eyes.

"Got ya bitch" She'd smirk grabbing the knife she'd left lodged within the demon. Pulling on it and slashing through it. Forcing it to carve its way out from the demons blood. Washing her in it, as she then went for a downward slash. Cutting through it forcing it to stumble down. Releasing its claw from her dagger allowing her to thrust at its neck. Lodging the blade deep into its neck.

Its eyes widening. It would begin to choke on its own blood as blood forced its way into its throat.

The demon stumbled back further randomly swinging around it. Trying to hit her but wildly missing.

Conjuring up the last of her strength. Myst would speed into the demon forcing it to move with her. As she headed straight towards the cavern wall. Crashing into it. Even with another body shielding her. It felt as if she had been hit by a train. A very rocky train.

Falling to the ground her head spinning. As she tried to make left from right as the demon before her, looked as if it were about to lunge at her once more. Only for it to fall to the side. Limp and seemingly lifeless. As far as she could tell anyway.

Her tattoos slowly vanishing. The feeling of her body being ate at also began to vanish. Letting out a quiet breath she would lay there as the adrenaline she felt began to subside. Just allowing for all the pain she felt to take over. And it sucked royally.

Hearing footsteps beginning to approach. Biting her lip she would slowly force herself to sit up. Gripping her dagger in a tight grip.

Only for a gentle hand to be placed upon her shoulder. A touch she knew all too well. Julian.

Letting out a relieved breath of air. She would lean against Julian her weakness beginning to take ahold of her.

"I thought you were Boris for a moment. " She'd breath letting out a weak chuckle.

Julian would stare at her a look of worry painted clear as day onto his face. With how weak she looked. With how much blood she was losing. At this rate. He was sure she was going to die if he didn't do something fast. And the only thing he could think of was giving her blood. Taking the dagger from her grip. He'd slice it acrossed her wrist before placing it against her lips.

"Don't protest just drink. " Julian would order as he stared down upon her. Feeling even worse than he had before. If only he had been faster.
