The Rokugani Way (me and Anjeru)

She had her blades drawn, waiting for the signal before she dashed on quick feet to approach the mages. She was faster than them, in casting their magics, and she was taking them down with her Katana and Wakazashi, sometimes trading blows as they tried to fight her off. Her eyes found Terao, wondering what it was that he was doing, where he was going; so thusly, she tried to follow his path, though she was taking bodies out as she went, quickly at times, a little slower at others.
 
Terao and Yokuma got into the inner sanctum of the tomb, and Terao was shocked at what he had seen. There was a group of the Maho-Tsuni in a circle, chanting, and in front of their very eyes, there was a flash, and in the center of the circle stood Iuchiban. The Bloodspeaker stretched very little, his head instantly turning and finding the two men. Both Terao and Yokuma held their blades at the ready as Iuchiban drew his katana, slightly longer than usual.

Yokuma charged forward, but he was easily deflected and surrounded by the Maho-Tsuni, leaving Terao to fight the Bloodspeaker. Terao moved forward slowly, holding himself in a null form, untracable from any other position, because it was so easily changed. They circled each other, studying the other's movements.
 
Yune fought off as many off the enemy units as she could, helping her fellow samurai as she tried to follow the same path Terao has taken to the more, inner part of the enemy line. He'd disappeared from her line of vision a little bit ago and she couldn't help but be worried about him. Though, this warred with the more warrior side of Yune, so even as she shollowed the path he'd taken, she was still taking out what she could with her wakazashi and katana.
 
Iuchiban and Terao were slowly studying each other as they circled one another. Terao would match this to iajutsu if it wasn't for the constant moving that they were doing. He knew that he was at a terrible disadvantage in the fight. Iuchiban was a greatly trained swordsman even before becoming a Bloodspeaker so many years ago, before his death, and how resurrection.

And it was Iuchiban that made the first move, charging forward in a flurry and cutting down on Terao's blades. The blade was easily blocked, but the foot to his chest was not, sending him flying back against the wall, rolling to the side to avoid the stab that Iuchiban made. The opening made from it was non-existant, because Terao had to instantly raise both blades to block Iuchiban's next attack.
