In reply to: Shazaam - The Pestilence 's message, "Relentless.Tyme" on 06/14/04 1:27pm

A sinister sneer twisted itself across his features, labrale parting just enough to show the yellowing enamel of his incisors. A faster heartbeat accompanied the second rush of adrenaline, though no reaction was made in the way of fear. He wasn't afraid. Reasonably respectful of the wretch's power, yes. But scared? Never.
Hardly any response was given to the tone in Shazaam's spoken words, besides a lazy conves twitched in the general direction of the stag's trap, but a response was uttered to the speech itself.
It was hardly three against one...yet. More like...one on one, with two bystanders- who happened to be on the same side. Apparently now though, there won't be an audience. So sad.
Oh, sweet sarcasm. The last due of words were drenched with sarcasm, utterly scornful of the Light standing before him. For a moment, it was only the two of them standing there, no engagement in battle by either side of this standoff. Not that Shazaam left Tyme waiting for long.
Surprise widened the fringes of his orbitals slightly- this attack had indeed caught him off-gaurd. Two points for Shaz, he had the element of surprise. Only thoughts of evasion crossed the adrenaline-rushed mind, and his escape plans turned instead towards the path of least harm, a decision hurried by the impending collision of two heavy forehooves upon the vulnerable area of an unprotected chest. A scream of rage shattered the relative quietude that had previously reined the atmosphere surrounding the duo of now-battling caliphs. As a determination as to action was finally made, the forelegs of the pewter tainted vagabond pulled slightly away from the terrain and his bulk was moved off sideways. The attack didn't miss, not by any means, but the brunt of it was thrown off by the maneuver. One scythe hit the far edge of Tyme's chest at an angle and was shunted off to the side, merely scraping the pelt away from the silven carcass. The other foreleg, now aimed toward the side opposite of which it had started, now landed in the fleshy area just off the collarbone. Damn, too close. But not deadly. Now his sideways motion had been thrown, and instead the sahib ended up pivoting as he leaped, facing slightly away from the former Light King as he landed. Quickly breaking from this unadvantageous position, the czar pivoted quickly again, front appendi again leaving the ground after his split-second of repose. Now he was in the air again, Shaz now perpendicular to the coming charge of the stormy courser, since Shaz's attacks had carried him slightly past where Tyme had been standing only moments before. Whatever pain demonized his shoulder and chest was ignored, not even noticed long enough to be dubbed forgotten, as his own physique streaked towards that of his attacker. Two points for Tyme. He's got Shaz pinned, now- and they're tied. His cranium was tucked tightly to his trachea, protecting the sensitive area, and gravity would soon have his spades descending upon Shaz's platform or, if they missed, his ribcage. Not the two best places to be bruised, eh?
