[center][h2][color=#FF4500][b]AKIVA[/b][/color][/h2][/center] He was clever, the dragon man. Clever enough to know that little Akiva was much scarier than she seemed, and that he should keep his eyes right on her, to make sure she didn't creep up when he wasn't looking and tear him to pieces! But if he was looking at her, that meant he wasn't looking other places. Wasn't looking at the mixed-blood warrior who readied a strike from beneath his cloak, wasn't looking at the powerful Oro perched atop a pillar, wasn't looking at the chatty Sol who'd already drawn his sword... ...and, most importantly, he wasn't looking behind his head, where a four-inch portal was silently sliding open. Or behind Akiva's wing, which concealed not only her musket but another portal of similar size. From the way her emotions were bubbling up, he'd know she was about to attack. When the attack came, however, she didn't lunge, or shoot, or even leap into the air. Instead, she [i]jabbed[/i]. Jabbed the butt of her musket through the portal behind her wing, to slam it with all her strength into the back of his skull. Armor could keep him from being cut or shot, but it couldn't entirely stop blunt force. Wouldn't be able to stop Akiva from knocking him off balance, nor stop her concussive blow from bouncing his skull off the inside of his helmet, bouncing his brain off the inside of his skull and leaving him stunned, reeling, ever so vulnerable...
