[color=662d91][i]"He's fast,[/i][/color] said Zypha's inner monologue as the marine quickly closed the gap and stepped right in front of her just before the scythe could return to her grip.  Being so close to her it was impossible to block the attack with her other scythe so her only option was to jump backward.  The dagger to get a nice clean cut on her left side, slicing through her flesh but her movement made sure the blade only grazed her rib cage.  While she wanted hold her now aching front this was a battle and useless movements would prove fatal.

Instead of catching the scythe she let the blade fly past her and caught part of the chain, spun it around behind her to catch her opponent from the other side, this time aiming at his legs, hoping to snare him with the chain.  To increase the momentum she started to spin around herself, keeping her other blade close to her body to slash at her opponent while she became a whirlwind of spinning death.

Zypha took her momentum to make a swirling dance of death as she advanced on Lenny after her leap backward.  The Spiral Lotus was a fast and furious technique designed to catch the opponent off guard.  The blade out on the chain would either slash or simply add weight to the chain in order to catch her opponent, allowing the inner scythe to make quick work of whoever was caught in the outer spiral.  Could be a decent defensive move as well but was better suited for attack simply because it was not like she could keep up a mini tornado of blades for long.
