While he maneuvers himself to dodge the makeshift distraction blast, she focused the inner energy of the cross to change it into her sword, the length transferring across until it became the length of a large obsidian black looking long-sword with a silver like cross-guard, humming with it's own energy, then she stood, her wings unfolding slightly, still arced around her to provide a shield from every angle except for below and in front of her, her eyes however, searching the darkness, and his power flow of utilizing it, found him within moments and she turned, facing him. She watched as he raised the metal sign post, making it a weapon, she just watched, lowering her sword to a angle, within her right hand, her leather looking like gloves clenching the grip of the sword as she watched him, around them her power seemed to flow through the dark, starting to twirl the air around them both slowly, she shifted her stance some during the pick up of the dark wind, becoming into a speed focused defensive stationary stance with her wings covering points so that she can focus on everything in front of her easily.
