All of a sudden Luna felt an intense dizziness assail herShe had to slow or risk falling overHer feet hit the ground with a heavy thud but were stable, despite the fact that every un to claw her way out of thefor breath, she saw the masked traitor stop as wellThey stood a hundred and fifty feet apart, just staring at one anotherLuna could feel the h she couldn’t see his face
“Evidently your ht”
She was spentCloudhawk could see itThe dely so like the Bloodsoaked QueenKilling hi her to chase hiht timesThat’s how many strikes she tried with her staff
Before their encounter she’d been hunting him with the help of her relic necklaceThat had also cost her psychic energyNow not only was she spent mentally, but physically as well
Cloudhawk’s sieAs the old saying went, every dog had its dayNow… it was time for the hunted to become the hunter
“You…”
Luna knew she’d been tricked, but it was too lateThey were surrounded by a sNo aid would come soon

“fuck!” She sidestepped what she could, her wrath still alive in her heart and filling her with the energy to continueBut she only had strength enough to runBehind her, that contemptible man shouted taunts
“Didn’t the honorable deht? Does thisaway is also the style of holy warriors like yourselves? You elysiansSo virtuous”
Shame and fury filled herHis words struck her so acutely that she stopped long enough for one of his bullets to catch her in the thighHer legs weren’t ar in deepIn this era, there was no one to teach wastelanders how to be gentle with the fairer sexCloudhawk didn’t hesitate at all, er was aimed for the flesh of her throat
Luna was inexperienced in life or death struggles, but she was trained by the forry, but she still was not a helpless lamb before the butcher’s knife

Even without the added danger of psychic energy, the exorcist staff was sharp and lethalCloudhawk thought she was spent, and was surprised to discover that she still had energy to fight backHe lifted his left hand, using the revolver to deflect her blowThe gun was knocked away so hard its barrel was irreparably bent
Luna gathered herself for a second attack, but when her right leg hit the ground the bullet wound was torn widerThe pain caused her to lose her balanceCloudhawk, seizing the opportunity, whipped a kick at herThe demonhunter was knocked a dozen feet away
Lesson learnedCloudhawk approached her more cautiously this time“You really don’t fuck around”
