[h2]Ando Hikari - North Team[/h2]

"… Seriously? There was supposed to be only one of them, not a ton of flunkies. Well, same idea, just take care," Hikari sighed, raising Ame-no-Habakiri properly and waiting. She didn't have any fancy tricks to call on for this, any special attacks, just her reflexes, experience—

And a blade that went through such weak grudges like they were made of paper. It was an odd sight, the tiny girl swinging such a long sword, but the results couldn't be argued with. Hikari didn't have muscle to fall back on, nor a spiritual ability that would directly boost her swordsmanship, so only grace born of experience and economy of motion let her cut through the Grudge, trailing ooze.

"Well, come on then; we need to get inside," she added, looking back over her shoulder at her new junior and the rest of the team as if she [i]hadn't[/i] just impaled a second doglike-beast as it leapt, allowing its own weight to cut through its shadowy body.
