[ Felix nods, picking himself up out of the pieces of the display case, and launches himself at the shadow. They clash. They part. They clash again, and lock blades, and Felix presses close with all his strength. He can do this. He doesn't have to win; he only has to buy her time.

They are nearly face to face when the shadows peel back from his opponent's visage, and Felix realizes: it's not Glenn.

He's fighting himself.

Felix has only a moment to register this, jolting in alarm, and then his other self manifests an aegis out of its own nightmarish form and slams it into him with enough force to rattle his teeth and send him skidding across the floor.

When he manages to sit up, he's bleeding from a point where one sharp fang pierced his lower lip. ]

Change of plans.

[ He wipes a trickle of blood from his lip and then spits it onto the floor, staggering to his feet and lifting his blade overhead, pointed directly at the specter. ]

Help me kill this thing. We can get those later.

[ She's just finished stuffing more of the crystals into her pockets when she hears the clatter and clash and she whirls again to stare, sword rising as Felix goes skidding across the ground. She glances at him, but barely takes her eyes off of the shadow that they're facing. She can't deny being confused. Why face this thing now? What's changed? She doesn't know the history behind any of this.

But if Felix will fight, she'll fight with him. She moves to his side, blade leveled in a guard position. She tracks the shade's movements, lips press together, wings spread slightly (almost protectively) to half-cover Felix.

Look, it's what she does. ]

I'm with you.

[ And she leaps forward to the attack, sword extended in a thrust. The shade parries and darts back before leaping forward for a counter-attack. The fight is on. ]
