Nigel's lips formed a smirk when he saw Samir skillfully dodge Sage's next attack. [i][color=skyblue]"A breath attack huh? So he's some kind of slayer? Interesting..." [/color][/i] he thought as he moved out of the way, the wave of dark magic just barely missing him for a few inches, [i][color=skyblue]"and a powerful one at that!"[/color][/i]

[color=skyblue][b]"Haha, that's the spirit!"[/b][/color] he shouted and his right hand morphed into a blue blade of pure eternano, his nanites gathering it from the air and giving it the form of a blade. Suddenly, Samir jumped right in front of him, transformed into one of her suits and immediately started shooting arrows back at the ice birds coming their way. [color=skyblue][i]"...and she's an Ice-Make mage..."[/i][/color] he thought as he tried to dodge one of the icy eagles, only to find out they could lock on their target, [color=skyblue][b][i]"Damn, seems like they are no pushovers,"[/i][/b][/color] he mumbled and, with a swift movement, turned around and sliced the eagle in half, the two parts flying past him and crashing onto the ground.

Nigel bolted to where Samir was and stood next to her, [color=skyblue][b]"The nanite should arrive at your brain any minute now, so just try,"[/b][/color] he sliced in half two more ice eagles, [color=skyblue][b]"just try and hold them off for now and we'll go on the offensive once we are able to communicate better,"[/b][/color] he finished saying. Nigel, however, would soon be reminded of the consequences of not paying full attention to your opponents moves. In the brief time he was talking to Samir, he failed to notice that Sage had unleashed his own cluster of magical eagles. As he blocked one of the ice eagles, a dark one slipped past it and crashed right on his side, sending him flying a couple of feet and falling on the ground. [color=skyblue][b]"Shit..."[/b][/color] he thought as he stood up, obviously dazed by the surprise attack.

Quickly regaining his composure, Nigel analyzed his surroundings, only to find something unexpected. [color=skyblue][i]"Where the heck is Sage..."[/i][/color] he thought. The only opponent he could see in front of him was Stacy. [b][color=skyblue]"Well, whatever. If they want to give me an opening, I'll gladly accept it"[/color][/b] and with that, he started charging up his cannon. If he was left to finish charging up, he would unleash a blast of eternano several times bigger than the one he blocked Sage's blade attack with.
