- Swan - Swan hadn’t paid attention to what the boy said, and was thus extremely surprised when he launched an attack at her and Dante. It was too sudden, and the black blade cut through Swan’s hoodie sleeve, drawing blood on its journey through the soft fabric. Swan stepped back in horror, feeling her arm go limp as it hung by her side when a stinging, toxic sensation like hellfire entered her bloodstream. Nearly paralyzed with fear she staggered backwards as her brain tried to process what had just happened and tried to decide: fight or flight? Wide eyed she remembered Dante next to her and tugged at the bow in her pocket- this was no time to be a coward.

DANTE ANDERSON "Makes this whole thing easier."The words intrigued the young man; though he hadn't much time to ponder them. The living juxtaposition of a regularly dressed figure wielding a seemingly medieval weapon had lunged forward; the black blade connecting with Swan on some level. Dante, on the other hand, quickly dodged in the opposite direction that his fellow element-commander later did, in order to force the attacker to pick his target individually. He had no real utensil he could use in self-defence, so instead he once again turned to Swan. She was beginning to ready her own weapon... and that's when it struck him. He prepared himself to channel his mysterious power to manipulate the air around them, in order to make sure arrows that would fly from the bow not only did so accurately, but with enough speed to apply considerable force. All he had to do was wait for her to take the opportunity.

Knight 001# lunged forward again, a thick black smoke curling out from beneath his clothes, polluting the air around them. He went in with another right swing; back-up would be coming soon. His face was purely neutral in this fight, the lack of emotion on his face extremely discomforting. Right now he was at a disadvantage, he only knew one of the elementals powers, but the boy was a mystery.

- Swan - Swan stepped backwards as she anticipated the knight’s next swing- it was broad and aimed at both of them, which made it easier for Swan to avoid since Dante had stepped in another direction. She was still too startled to start thinking tactically, but it would seem she didn’t have to. The bow expanded in her left hand and with it grew three arrows between her fingers, which she clumsily grasped with her other hand before the smoke started to engulf the knight and his surroundings. She raised the full-sized bow quickly and aimed at the knight, feeling the sting of the cut disappearing as quickly as it had grazed her, then let an arrow fly towards the knight’s face.

DANTE ANDERSON The dispersal of the duo worked like a charm, as Dante had expected. He watched Swan line up a shot, and continued with the actions he had set in motion not a few seconds ago. With luck, the arrow would strike true, and do so with overwhelming effectiveness. In the moments that followed, he tried to work out just who the hell was this individual. He moved with such brutality that one could only assume he was after a killing blow, and given his comments about their powers; that must have been his motive. So they were dealing with a trained assassin, who harboured a hatred of people who wielded such unique gifts. Dante couldn't shake off the feeling that this was all part of something bigger... although once they were done with him, it would be one person smaller.

NATHAN STONE He'd followed the strange pair out of the restaurant, and straight into a scene right out of a movie. They'd been attacked obviously, by some strange assassin, and they fought back against him using weapons and powers that had no place in the modern, real world. He wouldn't have believed his eyes, if he didn't have a secret of his own. Now he knew there was a reason he'd been drawn to him. Feeling the calling of a physical encounter, Nathan rushed into the fight. He figured that if the powers these two wielded were anything like his own, it would be best for him to jump in to their defense for now. He'd have thrown himself at the strange assailant, but at the last moment realised that the girl had just fired an arrow from her strange bow at him, hopefully dealing with the attacker. Skidding to a stop, Nathan fell in line between his two fellows, his bottom lip gripped tight between his teeth. He gave the boy a sideways glance, then, without moving his head, stared forward once again. "You're going to have to tell me what's going on here, kid."

The arrow struck Knight 001# in the shoulder, who should have been prepared to counter against it but the sudden arrival of the new kid shook him off balance. From the wound poured blood, causing the Knight to inhale sharply. "Brats," He muttered, "Now you've gone and done it." Knight 001# raised his free hand to the air, and black smog billowed out of it. "You think you're the only ones who have powers here kids?! You haven't seen nothin' yet, no-"
Knight 001# report back to headquarters effective immediately!
"What?" He muttered, the black smog sucking itself back into his skin.
No questions, report back now!
"Tch," Quickly he turned and ran, disappearing into the inky blackness of an alleyway. The fight wouldn't have been over then, if reinforcements had arrived faster those brats would've been subdued. He could've taken on all three of them if he went all out.
