girl out of time

13) Point blank

''BANG'

The bullet whizzed past Sakura's head as she ducked underneath his arm.

before he cold react, she aimed a powerful kick towards his head. The layers of thick dress material hindered her, making her unable to get a clear shot. but it was enough. the blow knocked him off balance sending the gun sailing out of his grasp.

She sent a kick at it, sending the shining metal skittering across the floor, out of harms way.

She span back just in time to block a hard blow aimed at her head, the force of it shook her to her bones.

she may out rank him in skill but there was no way she cold beat him in strength. She wouldn't be Abel to withstand too many blows like that.

She needed to end this quickly.

She dodged and ducked a number of powerful punches. She was slowly being forced towards the tables, being unable to place any attacks of her own without leaving herself unprotected.

Air whistled from the force of his next punch, amid at her head. she just managed to block it, sending it veering off, jarring her shoulder instead. the force of it sent her body reeling but didn't move away, she used the momentum of is punch to plant her knee in his gut. he dubbed over giving sakera an opportunity to plant an elbow in his back. he went down on the stonework with a crack. she used his disorientation to escape her corner, moving towards the tables on her right. away from author and towards the big oke double doors.

Thunder rumbled, The noice reverberating in her gut.

'Ok I need out. there are too many people here, too many chances of casualties. I cold use the candelabra as a destruction , but I don't think I have the time!'

Her elbow to the back didn't keep him down fore long. before she cold properly react he was upon her. A knife was drawn from his holster. arm raised.

With nowhere to run she reached round for her familiar weapon. but finding nothing but air. she realized with a jolt of panic that her katana was no longer in her Possession.

Trapped between a killer and a table, She was forced to volt over it to avoid the descending blade.

she landed nimbly between two chars, much to the occupants dismay.

Before her hitched up skirt could properly swing round her she had spun a heavy oke Char round, the back was facing Gareth.

The woman sat in it looked about ready to faint.

"Sorry love you gonna have to move." Sakura grabbed her shoulder and yanked her out her seat. still under the affect of the drug she just collapse wherever Sakura dumped her whimpering form.

"Sorry!"

She braised the chair just in time, before a dagger to come slicing through the chair. wedging itself in the hard wood, point just stopping Millimeters from her nose.

She let out a shaky sigh, pushing pink strands out of her face.

That was too close!

As lightning flashes, an angry growl sounded from Gareth on the other side of the table and her chair back barricade, it sound like the storm was on top of them.

Sakura slowly poked her head round the thick chair back.

"If I come out will you trow another knife at me..... cos if you are I ain't coming out."

Gareth let out another animistic snarl. "I'm getting really tired of your games, Temple, and as you know I'm not a patient man."

She watched him draw two more daggers from his holsters. bracing them in a ready position.
