Makoto was standing back to back with Rigel not knowing what to do in this situation.

"Rigel, do you have a plan."

"I don't." Said Rigel.

Makoto knew they needed to find some type of weakness in their enemies but there was still to much she didn't know about the enemies they were facing. Chris and Damian begin to advance on Makoto and Rigel. Makoto was carefully watching Chris who vanished in the blink of an eye and she prepared for an attack but when she turned he was attacking Rigel instead of her. Makoto went to block Chrises attack but Damian landed a massive punch to her stomach that caused her to spit up some blood.

"Damn."

She looked at Rigel who managed to dodge Chris's attack and she swung at Damian with her spear but he grabbed the shaft of the spear and pulled her toward him. Damian punched Makoto in the stomach again, this time with much more force sending Makoto sliding back. Makoto was a little annoyed that they ended up switching opponents unintentionally but, she felt they were doing slightly better now. Makoto decided to charge at Damian who didn't seem to be bothered. He didn't know that Makoto had a plan this time. She attacked as if she she was going to slice upward but, she stopped and thrusted her spear forward hoping to pierce his chest. Damian grabbed the blade of Makots spear but quickly let go as he realized that his hand was beginning to burn.

"I didn't realize you enchanted your powers into your spear, it's a pretty cool trick." Said Damian

Makoto didn't reply instead she took in what had happened. She wondered why he grabbed the blade of her spear instead of blocking it or dodging it.

"The information your trying to understand won't help you beat me." Said Damian.

"how did you know I was trying to understand what you just did?"

"I'll keep that little secret to myself." Said Damian

Damian charged at Makoto attacking her relentlessly while dodging her attacks like it's nothing. Meanwhile Chris is struggling with Rigel.

"Where are you?" Said Chris.

Rigel didn't say anything as he loaded an arrow.

"Enhanced arrow: lightning form" said Rigel

Rigel sent an arrow toward Chris that left a streak of lightning trailing behind it. Chris turned around and saw the arrow heading toward him but, the arrow was traveling as fast as lightning so he vanished but, the arrow managed to penetrate his skin a little before he escaped. Rigel looked at Chris who then looked in his direction and appeared in front of Rigel getting ready to strike. Rigel jumped to the side before Chris's blades cut his head off. Rigel had a theory but, he needed to test it out before he made his plan. Rigel purposely made him self visible again and watched Chris's eyes. Chris looked in the direction that Rigel was standing and he vanished. Rigel looked behind him and saw Chris so he took out his dagger and blocked both of Chris's swords. Chris looked over to the side of the room and Vanished but, Rigel took notice of that. Rigel decided that he had enough information to commence his plan.

"Makoto do you trust me?" Said Rigel.

"As long as it doesn't involve almost killing yourself, then go for it."

Rigel loaded arrow after arrow and took soy all the lights. The room was left completely dark. Rigel decided to take aim on the direction he last saw Chris.

"Enhanced arrow: poison form." Said Rigel

He released an arrow and heard a thud then he heard a body drop to the floor.

"Makoto give us some light again. I think my plan has worked." Said Rigel

"Ok."

Makoto shot a few flame blasts from her hand lighting a few things giving them enough light to see. Rose looked over and saw Chris's crumbled body on the floor.

"Damn, you." Said Rose.

Rose was made now and she got off her seat and prepared to attack Rigel.

"Good job Rigel! Just hold her off for a little bit while I finish off Damian then I'll help you with her."

Makoto kept trying to attack Damian but, he always dodged and countered Makotos attacks. Even when Rigel turned the lights out he avoided Makotos attacks without being able to see. Makoto wasn't about to give up just yet so she decided to keep attacking Damian until she found a weakness. Makoto attacked Damian again and again but, he just blocked, dished, and countered her attacks.

"I could do this all day." Said Damian.

"I could also do this all day except I plan to win this within the next few minutes."

"Ha, that's funny since you really think you can beat me. I know every move before you even make it." Said Damian .

"How do you know what moves I'm going to make before I make them."

"Like I said before, I can't tell you." Said Damian.

"I'll find out on my own then."

Makoto thought about her next move then made it but, Damian was expecting it and knew exactly what to do in order to counter it. Makoto continued to do this again and again without much progress. She looked over and saw Rigel struggling with Rose and she knew she had to finish her battle fast in order to help Rigel. Then it hit her, Makoto realized how Damian knew how she was going to attack.

"Ha, I figured out how you know what my attacks are."

"I know your bluffing." Said Damian nervously.

Makoto decided to turn off her mind and didn't think about what attack she was going to use next. She let her instincts take control of her actions. Makoto charged and acted like she was aiming for the head. Damian saw this and got ready to block but, she quickly changed and aimed for his chest.

"Piercing flame."

Makotos spear pierced Damians heart and he tried to say something but, before he could he went limp and she removed her spear. Makoto then ran over to Rigel and prepared to fight Rose.
