*I slash the space in front if me repeatedly, creating thick barriers of ash with each slash*

*You feel six impacts but as the sixth one hits The Specter Crashes through the Ash and punches you through the Gas Mask, aiming to smash in your nose. A green streak is in his wake* "You had to intervene."

*my gas mask falls to reveal my face with a bloodied nose, seemingly broken* *ash swirls and lacerated throughout my face, and the nose cracks and sears itself back in place* Of course I did. This is my people to deal with, not yours. Perhaps if fate were different, I would've allowed you to go about your ways- *I slash several more time and end with me flicking my sword towards the ground, mimicking the technique of getting blood off a katana* *with each slash, ash bursts and enters my body until it forms a thick second skin, made grey with cinders* -but today is not that day.

"Don't talk to me about people..." *The Green aura glows brighter and he sucker punches your gut*

*takes the punch as the crunching of bones is heard, but the second skin itself seems to have cracked the most and absorbed some of the blow* *reeling back with my katana, I bring it up to try and slash across the Spectre's chest*
