[Legretta was tougher-- between her fontech guns and her skill, that had been one of the toughest fights to date.

Without a second thought Guy reached for his blade and joined Tear, bypassing her target to attack the larger ones that were coming in behind it.]

[mysterical]

[And just think, the major is the one who taught Tear how to fight. Which should be all that anyone needed to know about how fast and sure Tear's movements are in taking down the bat.

She then heads to strike at another, feeling a bit of her life force being leeched from her before stabbing it in the eye. The bat screeches and falls to the ground.]

To your left! [There's a goblin there, but she's not sure if she can throw her daggers here, unlike back home.]

[loyalflower]

[Though Guy hadn't yet practiced much with his personal sword style since arrival, having spent the time getting used to the jobs instead, he had no answer as to whether he could execute any of his normal moves or not. However, a blade was still a blade, and Guy reacted with the fluid moves of a trained swordsman.

In a smooth, uninterrupted motion he swung his blade and slashed through the goblin, cutting it down and out of their path.

"Over there," He called, and with a nod he indicated a clear space ahead. "Looks like we can take her through safely."

[mysterical]

[It's convenient that they received weapons they were already proficient with, true. Getting used to her new jobs had been child's play and didn't worry about Guy. He was smart and used to adapting when the case called for it.

She looks over to where he's indicating and shakes her head.]

One of us needs to act as a distraction while the other takes her out. There's no other way. I see more enemies coming from that direction.

[loyalflower]

You take her and go, then. I'll hold them off for you.

[And he would, as a crowd like this was child's play once he got moving. While he didn't have all of his Artes available to him, he still had his sword and his reflexes-- that was enough.

Without another word he darted off toward the incoming enemies, blade in hand and ready to strike.]

[mysterical]

Be careful!

[It's all she can say before he's gone. Guy's an able swordsman. She shouldn't worry about him acting rashly, but he's still her friend and she'd like to avoid him being hurt needlessly.

She runs and grabs the little girl, a hand over her mouth so she can't cry out and alert the enemies to where they are. When she has the girl behind a house, she uncovers her mouth and stares at her seriously.]

Run to the barracks. Don't look back, and take the back roads. If you see a monster, run into the nearest house, but run. Got it?

[When she gets a nod in reply, Tear shoves her charge forward, looking behind her morosely, praying to Yulia and Lorelei that Guy will get out of this without too much damage before she can return. She follows the girl until they can see the barracks and then runs back to her friend. No way is she leaving him there.]
