As expected, the woman caught up with him. But what he didn't expect was how incredibly quick she was. Without breaking a sweat, Vlad continued running, ignoring the woman's taunts. Normally he'd stay and fight and never back down from a fight but he was low on energy due to using higher than usual amounts of his elemental power, and if he continued to fight in this state he'd fall unconscious. The scars on his body and arms were painful as well, and had a faint red glow which was not a good sign at all. His breathing was also heavier, not due to the exhaustion but the draining effect the scars had on him.
His familiar was looking up to his master while holding itself tightly against his chest, it little eyes had a worried feeling about it's master. The phoenix then turned and could see the woman running closely behind Vlad, it was staring at the bird but something about her felt calm and welcoming.
Vlad quickly put the familiar in one arm freeing his other and looked behind him while still running, the woman was close to him and she still had this annoying grin plastered on her face, as if this everything was a game to her. " Don't mess with me!!" Vlad yelled when releasing something from his free hand. It was red dust which covered everything behind him. Vlad then snapped his fingers and the dust started to glow a bright red light. "Leave me alone, you creepy stalker!" and with those words, the dust exploded. It was not a particularly powerful explosion. The dust was designed to confuse or disorientate people or creatures alike.
