[Center][color=#C70039][h3]~Isabella~[/h3][/color][/center] [hr] Isabella was ready to use her own weapon to defend herself from the corrupt hound as it leapt at her. Thankfully, it seemed like at least one of them could do there goddamn jobs. That left just one of them left - she could [i]probably[/i] at least easily take care of it. And by taking care of it, she meant avoiding it completely. The redhead made an attempt to leap to the side, holding her sword in front of her where the hound was - if it did hit her, at least perhaps she could mitigate the damage somewhat. [color=#C70039]"Geh, you don't have an impossibly impractical weapon!"[/color] Isabella rebutted with a scoff towards Aiv. He was right, though. Thrusts and vertical swings would likely be her best friend for now. At least until she could get a better handle on the damn thing. In fact - a rather neat idea came to her. She needed to see if it could be done - as bunched up as they were they it could help immensely if it could work. There was also the risk of tiring herself out completely, but, well, such was the nature of practicing something. Really, the conditions were as probably as favorable as they were going to be.
