[b][color=thistle]"I ain't really counting you out yet,"[/color][/b] He called over his shoulder. [b][color=thistle]"But I'm not really sure if you're up for this either."[/color][/b]

As Alto ran, glowing eyes followed him from above. Eyes he recognized. They belonged to certain wolves known to inhabit rocky mountains and cliffs, their specialty was mostly just climbing and that was as far as it went. Directly ahead of them, a seemingly innocent pile of rocks came to life and even some scorpion bats made an appearance.

[b][color=thistle]"I don't know about your skills beyond that darkness sword of yours but if you use it again you really might die."[/color][/b] He said, turning around. One of the wolves from above finally came down for an attack.

It bounded down the angular rock face and lunged for him, but it was met with a solid kick to its ribs from below, and Alto sent it sailing over his head. He threw one of his Zweihanders backward, grabbed his other Zweihander with both hands and swung upwards as he launched himself into a backflip. He easily cut through the wolf beast, spraying blood all over his clothing.

[i][color=thistle]They finally bleed![/color][/i] He thought gleefully.

He completed a flip, and used the momentum to spring into another one. The bats cleared away from him, clearly not intent on meeting the same fate as the wolf. The golem however was unperturbed, and pulled its fist back to strike where the little man would be once he finished his next flip, but the Zweihander Alto had thrown earlier came down now and hitting its knee hilt first and cracking it. Another swing and it shattered toppling the golem.

Grabbing his other Zweihander, he thrust the two massive swords right through the falling Golem's chest, breaking its core.

[b][color=thistle]"I said you could go behind us if you didn't want to risk anything, but that's all I said."[/color][/b] He pulled his Zweihanders from the remains of the golem. [b][color=thistle]"I don't really care what you do, just don't die."[/color][/b]

With that, he turned back around and continued forward, leaving the others to deal with any wolves who wanted to attack them and also the bats.
