Rai
Raikov swallowed hard as he spotted the guards ahead. They had been so close, and now they were faced with her. The witch...the shadowwalker... His teammates charged ahead into battle, and he was left there standing fearful and weak next to the goddess who seemed to be fiddling around for something in her pockets. He sensed her apprehension as well as confusion. Momentarily, he closed his eyes, searching for the strength he knew was somewhere within him after so many years of hardships.
His mind momentarily wandered as he thought of all the people laying scattered, dead, frozen, or starved on the moist city grounds. All of the people in the slums struggling just to survive, and all of the brave soldiers who had already died to protect them and carry out their quest for salvation. Every last one of them braver than he was.
Rai was so close to something so divine and pure, she would be their savior and here he was, cowering like a guilty animal over a few shadows. Since when was he afraid of the dark? Opening his eyes, he didn't give himself time to think before he hurled himself to a position that would be a bit easier to defend. A ledge slightly higher in the tunnels. He didn't have a plan yet, nor did he have any sort of defenses but for his crossbow. He just knew he had to do something.
He took his first arrow, crouching and aiming at his target. He released it, watching it fly before it plunged into the back of one of the guards heads.
(Vexare coming shortly. and im gonna make Raikov fire and her darkness as far as elements go)
Vexare
"At last," she breathed as she saw the fighting break out. Her soldiers charged the small group ahead, though she had a feeling that sheer numbers would not win them the battle. No, these were highly skilled Hikari. Her shadows moved forward to meet them, dark and faceless. Vexare spotted the goddess, the young girl they called Haku further down the tunnel. A young man with a cross bow near her for close range protection. Instantly, she made them her target. Eyes on the prize, she smirked.
She felt the black tattoo appear just underneath her eye as it singed her skin. Three dangerous tear drops appeared as she summoned the darkness within her. Within her hands, she constructed two twin sai's and ran head on into the fighting. She loved killing; it was what she lived for.
She ran past a Hikari girl with a kunai who seemed to be distracted by one of her shadows. briefly, Vexare addressed the deadly being, instructing him to attack one more. The thing screamed in recognition and formed long black claws that were almost a foot in length, making himself even larger than before as he moved to envelope the girl in darkness.
