Fleuri nodded at Lucas as he heard the young man's plan as he looked up at the watchtower.  It was a crazy plan, to jump from the watchtower onto a griffin.  It was also quite in line with the impulsive, foolhardy boy's previous actions.  All the more reason, Fleuri thought, to do whatever was necessary to keep the boy alive.

Fleuri followed Lucas to the tower, coming up with a simple plan on the move.  As he made his way there, he unlatched his white cape and wrapped it around his arm.  The slightly dirtied white cloth was stained red as it came into contact with the blood that had splattered on him.  It didn't bother him too much- if he wasn't willing to get bloodstains on a white cape, he wouldn't have worn it into battle, and with what he was planning, he'd probably have to replace it regardless.  He then put away his greatsword- he wouldn't need it at the moment, and couldn't easily climb the ladder with it in his hands.

Upon reaching the watch tower, Fleuri climbed part of the way up the ladder, but instead of making his way all to the top like Lucas did, he stepped off the ladder onto a horizontal wooden beam, holding onto the wood above to maintain his balance.  The top of the tower was a bit too high for him to jump, he needed to get over the griffin from a lower point.  The beam creaked audibly under the weight of the armored knight, and Fleuri had to exercise caution as he made his way through the tower's underside to above where the griffin was.

By all accounts this a risky plan, but he couldn't let Lucas down.

Speaking of which, Lucas had used the chain to lower himself from the top of the tower, and now the two knights were almost at the same level.  It'd at least make communication easier.

The knight took a second to assess the situation.  The griffin was facing off against Serenity, striking against her spear with its claws.  It appeared to be holding back- it seemed to target the spear itself rather than the wielder, and it made no attempt to lunge with its razor-sharp beak.  Not wanting to risk being noticed by the powerful predator and its armor-crushing jaws, Fleuri opted to wait for a moment when the griffin could not afford to split its attention, a moment where looking up or turning around would jeopardize its well-being.

[color=A0A0A0]"Be ready to jump,"[/color] Fleuri said as he prepared himself.  He used his free hand to unwrap his cape as he watched for an opening.  The moment that Serenity lunged her spear at the griffin's chest, Fleuri jumped down, aimed at the beast's back.  His goal would be to pull his cape over the griffin's head, covering its eyes.
