[X] Fight aggressively.

"Don't tell me that this is your limit," Youmu says.

Vincent pants heavily. If the battle goes any longer, he will surely be defeated.

"And if it is?" he asks.

Youmu turns to him with a serious expression. Her eyes are burning with fighting spirit. She raises one of her swords and points it at him.

"Then you would be a liar and a coward." she says.

"Liar and a coward," he repeats.

[This girl mocks us so openly!]

"..."

[We will not take this insult lightly, not from someone like her...]

"No, we will not." he mutters.

[She will learn why the darkness fears us.]

Vincent tightens his grip on his sword. This time, he takes an attack stance. He narrows his eyes and concentrates. Youmu smiles in response.

He launches himself from the ground and starts his offensive with a straight thrust. Youmu dodges it with ease. As his left foot lands on the ground, he twists quickly to swing the blade horizontally. She gasps and barely blocks it with her shorter blade. His right foot lands on the ground. He shifts his weight and repositions his blade for a thrust to her side. She parries the attack with her longer blade. He jumps quickly to the right to dodge the swing of her short blade.

"Much better," Youmu says.

"..."

[Not yet.]

They continue to exchange swings, and Vincent presses on with his attacks. Youmu focuses on blocking and dodging. Perhaps she senses that something changed. But that won't help her now.

[There it is.]

Youmu blocks another thrust with her longer sword. Vincent easily dodges the counter swing of her short blade. He noticed earlier that there is an opening when she does this combination of moves. This time, his legs are positioned properly.

[Kill her.]

What?

[Kill her now!]

Vincent's right foot already launched him from the ground. Youmu's eyes widen in surprise.

[ ] Take advantage of the opening.
[ ] Twist yourself and try to change direction.
