Izayoi takes a step back from the deceased Foul Marksmen, scanning quickly for his target. It doesn't take him long: Jacques is close, seeing as he would be right behind the Foul Marksmen. [color=black][i]'Perfect...'[/i][/color] He mutters to himself, as three more support creatures appear by his side:
Two [b]Patrol Hounds[/b] and a single [b]Man-Wolf[/b]. As a Lizard Fighter, Izayoi didn't need to summon weapons just yet, and instead opted to use up his transformation completely. The plan was to overwhelm the enemy with unrelenting sneak attacks; the wolves would join the Etheral Wolf and target Jacques, whereas the Man-Wolf would stay by Izayoi's side, protecting him from harm. The extended lifespan of the Man-Wolf from the three other wolves would provide it with some much-needed longevity, allowing it to deal more damage for longer. With the other wolves masking their presence, that longevity would presumably last longer.

Izayoi's order was just long enough to be said before he was rushed by Jacques. With instinct he leaped into the air, using his spear to help catapult himself over Jacques so he could land behind him. Even if he landed a little close to him, he could use the spear to help propel him further along, planting it in the ground before he landed to give him just a little extra air. 
That did leave the Man-Wolf alone to deal with the ambush, however Izayoi hoped its sheer ferocious strength could buy it time, if not kill an enemy support. Or attack Jacques.

[hr]
1. Izayoi summons two [b]Patrol Hounds[/b] and a [b]Man-Wolf[/b], ordering the hounds to hide in the swamp and attack at their discretion. 
2. The [b]Man-Wolf[/b] is ordered to protect Izayoi. 
3. As Jacques rushes in (and he is very close), Izayoi uses the [b]Lizard Fighter[/b]'s spear to leap a great distance over Jacques, hoping to land behind him. He will use the spear gain as much distance as possible. 
4. The [b]Man-Wolf[/b] will be left in the middle of the ambush. Izayoi hopes it will live thanks to the extra support from the other wolves on the field, and deal significant damage to either other supports or Jacques himself, though has left that to the [b]Man-Wolf[/b]'s instincts to decide.
