In the Heat of the...Tunnel?
#13
Aria danced with the beast. Round and round they moved. Aria only got a few more slices in, and definitely not life threatening. Aria started to grow tired when yelling started in the cavern beyond. The oni started towards the easier prey. Aria caught it square in the leg and it growled back at her. It swung it's massive clawed hand and Aria was too slow, it caught her in the left arm, the pain seared through her arm, she could feel the blood flow and well from the gash.

The Oni turned on Aria again the smell of blood peeking it's hunger. Aria could feel it's hunger, it wanted her for a meal, the blood was too tempting. It rounded on Aria again.

Aria could feel someone approaching. Stupid people, haven't you ever seen a movie? There was no time to sigh, there was no time for anything other than trying to stay out the monster's reach. Aria danced through its claws. It almost smashed her into the wall, if she'd been one second slower or even slightly weaker from blood loss, she'd have crashed into the wall.

Aria could see the light from a laser flicker across the beast, but they moved too fast. And the gun would probably only piss it off.

The oni swung, Aria knew it would land. She tried to avoid the blow and brace for it all at the same time. It was only a moment that she closed her eyes, when she opened them again the oni was being whisked away and crashed into the wall.

Aria looked in the direction of the new comers through her hair that had fallen in front of her face. A second, empty man stood with gun drawn. Aria wanted to display a childish frustration but she didn't, she turned on the oni that was now struggling against bonds unseen.

The godling told her to get out of the way so he could kill it. That was not going to happen. Aria growled softly to herself. "Not on your life."


Aria moved in one quick flash, sword readied with both hands, to deliver a power full slash at the monsters neck. Aria felt the impact in her arms. Felt the blade slice through the tough skin of the oni and into whatever bones lay beneath. It was a distinct crunch. Sparks flew as Aria's sword struck a rock in the dirt wall behind it. The oni's head fell to the side and blood gushed everywhere, splattering across Aria's face and body.

There was no way she was going to let some cop take out an oni, even if he had just saved her from being crushed against a wall.

Aria turned back towards the two cops her sword above her head, her left arm hung limp at her side. Whatever power she had left drained from her, Aria staggered before falling to her knees. Aria looked over at the cops. "Sorry, I couldn't let you do that. But thank you.


Aria's heart raced, she sheathed her sword and put her head on the ground. The adrenaline and the pain coursed through Aria's body. It had been a good fight.
