"Seems that those sheathless swords are more common than I thought. Seems like everyone has one. And based off of that light show I'll take it they are more special than that. All the same my axe hasn't let me down yet. You can keep your funny shaped swords." Michelo commented
"Seems like nobody is getting much food recently" Michelo said as he handed over the slightly less than half a chicken that remained from what he grabbed out of the palace earlier. Completely ignoring Fardel and Storm he continued "So we've eaten, those of us with something to bring have it, we've got a guide, I think we're ready to go."
"That won't work deary" Mixt said with a smirk. When everything settled not only were there neoshadows remaining, there were actually more of them. "Contrary to popular belief not every heartless of the same name is identical. That goes double for purebloods like these. It will take more than a flashy attack to stop these" Secretly though this was just Mixt playing a smoke and mirrors game. While what he said had a grain of truth, the real issue with killing the neoshadows was that Mixt would just summon more, giving the illusion that they were dividing.

In the pause in the action Mixt gave her a similar look over as if to decide if she was worth his time. Slowly he made an upward twisting motion with his hand a group of the humanoid heartless neoshadows dug their way out of the sand, 13 in total forming a large ring around them. All at once they dived into the ground and came together under the woman to all attack as a large group. While Mixt stood still, waiting for the ideal moment to attack her in the confusion of dealing with the heartless.
Actually that would be Mike, I've only posted news twice because no one else was on to do so. err, I mean *is dead*
*shot* Oh noez, you've killed me DOODS
"If only I knew you would be so amusing at the beginning. I don't get any more joy from destroying you with a cannon as I do in person. One just happens to be faster than the other in most cases. You don't think the ground became such a lovely color in a fair fight do you?" While her blade locked with the Invisible's sword the dark spheres changed course from spinning around his own sword to spiraling down hers and following along her arm.
Mixt casually summoned Unholy Avenger in the middle of the motion of throwing it up in the air. The thunder bolts hit it and then it dropped back down. Mixt caught it and sent the majority of the electricity into the ground. It burned his hand, but Mixt seemed to either not notice or not care. "See I can be nonchalant about near death experiences too" Around this time the dark orbs returned to the sword in Mixt's other hand.
Mixt slammed his hand on the ground causing the sand to form into a giant spike inside of the tornado.
Mixt swung his blade in her general direction launching the dark orbs to form a constricting ring around her. Then closed in to intercept her if she dodged downward and made a nod at Raxtion indicating he should do the same up high.
"ba, na, na nao" Mixt chimed in as he swung down on the man. Noticing it hit nothing Mixt quickly snapped his fingers and the sand came up and turned to stone between him and the orb. Raxtion however was still unprotected.
"So does anyone here even know the way?" Michelo asked based on the earlier discussion.
What good is an attack that doesn't even work on your target? Mixt wondered as he leaped over a crater caused by the explosion and ignored the shots being fired at his men.
Mixt ran forward straight at the man and half way to him a dark figure emerged from the ground. It barely made it into the form of the heartless Invisible before Mixt tore the sword from its hands and the heartless disappeared into small points of darkness encircling the blade.
"Ah, That would be why there are six of, er, five of us protecting you" Michelo said with his mouth full and then promptly took another bite without yet swallowing the first.
Mixt rolled his eyes "He said I 'missed' you imbecile." And without another word he charged down into the valley.
Mixt walked over to Raxtion's cannon. And peered out into the distance. Suddenly he slammed his fist on the side of the cannon, forcing it to turn a few inches and then snapped his fingers which somehow caused another shot to be fired "Your eyes might not be as bad as you think"
"Is that allowed?" Michelo wondered "And what do you have to worry about? There are six of us here just to protect you"
Mixt stood in the distance, not yet aware that there was still anyone in the valley. "Who fired? You could destroy the loot!"
