Sophia felt somewhat sorry for the portal-using girl as she flew down towards where Billy had landed and was...spinning around? Likewise it seemed Amaryllis' attacks were being shed like the skin of a dead snake. It didn't take but a moment in time before and idea popped into the pirate's head, a with a grin on her face she quickly darted to the side and out of Billy's view as he focused upon her allies with his attacks. If the portal girl was going to survive, and grazing attacks did nothing, then what else might work potentially? With axe in hand, Sophia swooped in from behind Billy a she timed her approach...before coming down upon the monster in the right moment with a mighty full-power cleave of her boarding axe! If she couldn't off him in one go or cut him to death, then lobbing off his damned arm and part of his torso attached to it in the process would suffice!

With her great attack Sophia aimed more specifically to cleave a bit to the side of Billy's shoulder, more so closer to his neck and near the monster's collarbone to avoid hitting Mariette in his armpit.

Ninha paused, her body relaxing as she turned around after the feeling of bloodlust in the air had seemingly been cut short. In fact, her opponent's presence so close to her had up and disappeared, though reappeared a solid distance away. Yet the feeling of having met a competitor was a thrill. Indeed this girl seemed to be someone who seemed to try to be so professional, yet whose blade spoke of death and something more. Ninha had felt it subtly in their battle, in their moves, and in the din and clang and squelch of their brief combat. She was not very surprised this girl was being so restrained, though the sudden stop of combat in her experience usually meant her opponent had places to go...or perhaps a patron calling her? Regardless, the mud doll reeled in her chains, the ones on her person coiling back up on her forearms and the ones on her back disappearing into her body once more. 

The knife-wielding girl then introduced herself, and seemed to pause. Taking advantage of the moment, Ninha waved and spoke with what little time she had. After all, she didn't want to leave her sparring partner without a proper word!

[color=gold]"I am Ninha, dear Silhouette, and I must confess I like your style! Next time we meet, I'll make you a nice dinner! In fact, tell your patron I desire to talk to them with interest soon as well, since they managed to get someone like you!"[/color]

A brief message, at least, as compared to what she had wanted to otherwise say but had no time for. But all the same the monster girl felt a sense of calm satisfaction that came over her. Sure their introductory bout hadn't been long, but not all battles were! Yet if someone had acquired the services of this interesting girl, surely they must be interesting as well in some fashion. Oooh! Perhaps she and this girl and her patron could meet over a nice meal! That would be lovely, and frankly more civil by the standards of this day and age. Sometimes she had to remind herself of how much time had passed, admittedly, and yet she was glad this Silhouette had at least acquiesced to her very very old-style manner of introduction. So polite!

Though as she watched the girl jump and blink away from the scene, a long sigh pushed its way out from between Ninha's lips.
