She breathes hard with the effort, feeling tears well in her eyes at the sheer frustration of being unable to hit this bastard. The way he attacked the villagers, how he killed Master Thunderfist, and how he almost effortlessly blocks her attacks, it fills her heart with rage and sorrow. [color=orangered]Pip snarls in fury. The Evil Man attacked the villagers, hurt New Master, and [i]killed[/i] Old Master. He didn't care about the cost, he charges forwards to take a bite out of the man's ankle.[/color] [color=ed145b]"PIP, STAY BACK!"[/color] Sarah calls out hoarsely to Pip, who whines in surprise. [color=ed145b]"S-stay back. I can handle this, Pip..."[/color] [color=orangered]Pip, uncertain, nonetheless obeys, whimpering uncertainly as he does.[/color] Slowly, Sarah gets back up, using her sword to prop her up. When she gets to her feet, she tiredly gets into a combat stance, and even though there's dirt and blood on her face and tears of anguish in her eyes, she stares defiantly at Jabberwocky. Once again, she shifts her feet, moving into an offensive stance. Her steps are slow and faltering at first, but then she picks up speed, running as fast as she can at Jabberwocky, charging her sword with the power of lightning itself. At first, it seems as though she's trying for another attempt to find a weakness in his defense, to try and duke it out in melee. But then, she stops running, lets the momentum drive her forwards as she slides on the soles of her boots, and swings her sword. As she moves to strike, she pours every last bit of energy inside her, every last scrap of biogenic energy she has, into the sword, charging the power of lightning within and amplifying it with the battery in the pommel. When she has the sword pointed at Jabberwocky, she gives one loud cry of defiance as she unleashes all the stored energy in the sword, firing it in a blast of elemental lightning so strong it shines even in the bright light of day. She fires the full force of the attack at Jabberwocky, the arc so powerful it causes the earth around it to crack and shudder.
