Knowing how to aim a gun was one thing, but had Tomas ever used a weapon such as the one he was now holding before? He fired before Shax started moving, giving her all the room she needed to dodge the blast of energy, especially since it clearly favoured one side of her. She needed only to twist her body one way, the blast sailing by the edges of her armour harmlessly, and impacting one of the trees behind her. The Demoness' grin widened once again. With a scrape of metal against earth she kicked off from the ground, breaking into a sprint with her hefty blade gripped tightly in both hands, poised at her side where she could bring it sweeping around in a deadly slash the moment she got in close enough, and with the speed she was moving it would not take her long to get in range. The fox-eared spawnling was shouting off on the sidelines, but Shax paid him little mind. It was time to shed more blood. It was time to fell another opponent.
