Things happened quickly. Now Li and the rest were in the middle of a possible slaughter. Her eyes surveyed the scene, adrenaline pumping into her veins. Her heart beat quickly and strongly, nearly deafening her. 

And then one of the skeletons ran toward her, arms swinging wildly.

Time slowed down for Li, and her right hand twitched in a moment of hesitation. Should she use her Naginata or her hands? This was an open chamber, after all--Her hesitation was cut short when Eisen ran past her, pushing the skeleton to the ground. Another skeleton ran toward her, this one wielding a rusty dagger. She got into a low stance and deflected its stab, grabbing its arm and pulling it off his body with a kick. The skeleton fell from the force and Li swiftly pulled its other arm off and stomped its cranium to dust.

The first skeleton was struggling to get up, and Li kicked its ribcage to force it back down, then pulled its arms off and stomped its cranium. 

Others were closing in now. 

'I need more speed!' Li thought.

'No need to say it twice.'

Four more skeletons set their eye sockets on her, and she made a decision that moment. Driven by fear of being alone against this horde and the fear of leaving Eisen without cover, she rushed towards him, dodging a few attacks and skeletons on the way to him. He was smashing at the altar with his hammer.

"Eisen, I'll cover you. Quickly, you must destroy the altar!" She shouted and grabbed her Naginata from her back, getting into a defensive stance. The first wave of skeletons arrived quickly. Three of them, two with swords and one unarmed. With a spin and three sound of clashing metal, the three skeletons fell to the ground, having been cut in half. [@coolbro]
