[The Grimm is having a very rough night. It takes a swipe at Noctis, trying to drive him back, but it can't attack the two of them at once. From its side comes Lightning, her silver blade gleaming in the moonlight as it carves a gash down the beast's side. It squeals, tries to turn on her, and she flips back before it can.
But as she lands, another problem becomes evident. From behind, something else crashes through the trees. Lightning whirls around, can't see it--doesn't mean it's not there--and calls out.]
They're flanking us!
[She barely has time to get the words out before the second Grimm--the same kind and size as their first target--bursts out of the trees. She scrambles clear and the beast can't quite stop in time: it crashes into its fellow with a grumbling roar. Great! Now there's two of them to keep track of! What she'd give for Odin right now...]
[ He's not particularly surprised, though; the Grimm is really mad. But it's sure annoying, edging on dangerous. Funnily enough, Noctis is also wishing he had access to his celestial buddies. Ramuh would be great right about now...
It's a good thing he's great with a sword, because he's got that neat little cooldown period. Noctis moves out of the way of a particularly nasty swipe before he charges in again and slashes at the thing's chest once more. ]
[She's fine, for the moment. Their two on one strategy had been working fine earlier, but now that there's two of these damned things on the field, she's had to change tactics. Leaving him to handle the one Grimm on one side, she darts back around and gets the other's attention with some more lightning bolts to the face. It turns on her, roaring, and gets--
A good slice across the face for its trouble before she ducks out of the way again. They're getting lucky so far, but how long is that going to hold out?]
