40 Chapter 40 - I have been assasinated (1/2)
”Hey...why the sad face?” the Assassin whispered along with the sounds of swishing blades. Hiding within Ash, Kenji could see only the endless dark.

”Don't worry. Just stick around awhile, then I'll bring your friends heads to come have a little party,” somthing was stuck into the ground. Ash's body was not yet unusable, but if this bastard decided to run away with her head then Ash would be lost to Kenji forever.
Then again, if he could complete her sole desire of keeping Violet safe, perhaps that wouldn't be so bad.
Jettesoning from Ash's corpse, Kenji wiggled into the forest as his old man base form. Thankfully the forest quickly hid him, shielding him from the view of the assassin who was adorning himself in pelts and a Sun elf head.
Those trophies would be his downfall, Kenji swore it would be so. Transforming into Dana, Kenji started her summoning.
”What's this in the air-ha!” a sudden burst of vines distracted the assassin for now, but he was still moments away from discovering Kenji's intent.
By the time his eyes jerked to the dead tigers at his feet, it was too late. One tiger bit into side side, another raked it's claws down his shoulder. Shredded leather and a blast of blood sprayed onto the forest floor.
”AAHH, spirit of Desire [Awaken],” red and black energy filled the Assassin's veins. Immediately the bleeding stopped, and the assasin began moving with inhuman flexibility to avoid the strikes of the zombie tigers. His [critical hit] skill achieved little more than marring one tigers meat, even if it's claws missed due to the assasin contorting his body out of the way as if it were solely made of water.
Only too late did he realise he stood over Ash's corpse, her undead arm stabbing him between the legs. Howling, the assasin had his stones cut free.
Growling, the assasin tried to search the Forrest for Kenji but was distracted by the zombie tigers, Ash's undead revenant and the increasingly powerful attacks of the Forrest. Currently green energy welled within each vine, becoming hard as stone itself, the assasin no longer able to cut their fibres without using skills such as [slash] and [fast slash].
”There! The assasin grinned as he charged Kenji's direction.”
”[Blessing - Fire - times three!],” Kenji shouted, both undead Ash and his undead tigers erupting with holy flame.
Having entered the forest proper, the assasin was soon restricted. The twin tigers crashed into his side, collapsing soon after by a fair of [fast slash]s. Ash went even further, managing to bury twin taggers through his throat and back as if for that moment her ability in life had returned.
It would not be enough. The assasin hacked his way out as Ash's body burned to dust. Bleeding like a pig he staggered towards Kenji.
”Dana you traitor, I should have known...” the Assassin wiped the blood from his mouth, managing only to smear much more on instead from his heavily bleeding hand.
”You'll die here,” Kenji grinned, the holy fire catching onto the the Assassin's back and burning his skin and leather together.
