Safira's eyes widened as a ball of fire engulfed Bernie seconds after he'd fallen on his knees on the ground, his face smashed in and fear obvious in his eyes. The blood huntress' head snapped in the direction from which the fireball had originated. Her eyes squinted in disapproval. The captain bandit was finally yielding. He had surrendered. It was a pointless death to her mind as it was never really a punishment, more so an escape of sorts from responsibility. The tall, cloaked woman sighed. This is why she preferred to work alone. People are so different that it is so hard to find ones who will be willing to do things your way. Or at least close enough to your way. [i]Now what?![/i] Safira wondered. Bernie could have convinced his brothers to stand down. With him dead who knew how they'd react. And Safira had already had her fill of bloodshed for the night. She was trying to put that part of her past behind her, not delve any deeper in it. She'd almost slipped with that last couple of attacks against the head bandit. The huntress could still feel the sticky fingers of the familiar darkness clinging to her consciousness. She shook herself free of their lingering touch. [i]I don't need to follow suit to these other people. I've decided on a new path and I'll follow it![/i] The tall imposing figure of the woman shifted so that she was blocking the two remaining Barnaby brothers' line of sight to Warren. "I won't allow you to hurt Warren or Callie anymore." Safira stated darkly. But her voice held a hint of wariness as well. Almost as if the battle had tired her out, but more so emotionally than physically. As she seemed like she could go a few more rounds at least. "Your brother did not heed my warning and look at him now." The huntress pointed her chin in the direction of Bernie's charred remains. "If you wish to fight, we will fight." Safira brandished her lightning crackling scimitar in front of her to stress her point. "But make no mistake... You will lose! Just like your brother over there!" She finished, not really a threat. More so a statement of fact. [hider=Mechanics]Safira positions herself between Warren and Callie and the remaining Barnaby brothers and holds her ground. She readies/holds an attack in case any of the remaining Barnaby brothers tries to attack whoever. If any of them do and she's in melee with them, she'll attack with her scimitar.[/hider] Tag, you're it.[@rush99999]
