Tamakatari pulled a mace out of the back of one of the creatures.

"This is pointless. We keep killing 'em, and they keep coming back." Tamakatari turned to look at Cid and Gin.

"These guys won't stop coming until Cid is dead. If Gin doesn't finish him off soon, I'm going to step in." Tamakatari ducked his head as an arrow flew past.

(OOC: I won't interrupt until I'm told to, but honestly, we can't just stay here forever.)

"Trust me, those guys are easier then firestarter over here." Gin said as he docked behind the wall. A fireball ripped apart the doors to the throne room. Gin struck but only struck shield. (celes will be back saturday.)

OOC: Just kill Gin off already.

IC: Ark ran through Tama and stabbed one that had been charging him

"You're right. I've had more productive time whittling a frickin timber for my cabin."
OOC: And in the sake of all technicalities, Gin should be tired. No matter how sharp the sword, it'll take lots of force to break armour and sever heads. Also, he has to be constantly moving and constantly slashing, which is gonna tire him because of how heavy swords are. So Gin's tire him out plan don't work.

From behind his ice sheild that was still being slashed at by now two shadow warroirs, Lynx commented on the battle. "Well, you seem to be doing fine against Cid. We could easily just jump him and easily kill him."

ooc: Gin doesn't die till celes gets back. deal with it.

"I hate it when Lynx is that right." He lanced a throwing dagger into one of the warriors attacking the shield, ran forward, and hacked it in the mid-side before pulling his sword out and getting yet another duel going with the second.

One of the shadow warriors attacked Gin, distracting him from Cid. Cid stopped and watched with amusement. "Maybe I should make things more interesting." He held up his sword. A ring of fire moved around the fight in the throne room. Cid was now obscured by the tall flames.

Tamakatari continued to try and hold back the shadow warriors, but he was beginning to tire out. And since he gave his mythril shirt to Cesia, he was taking injuries in areas he normally wouldn't get hurt in. He turned to Lynx.

"Dammit, Lynx! Get the hell out of that shield and help us! Or at least do something to protect us! We're getting tired out here!"

"If I drop this shield, I will be able to kill those two shadow things easily, but after they are gone, any other creature could just jump me before I can cast my next spell. This shield drops, I die." Lynx put up another wall of ice, since the shadows had broken through one.

OOC: Instead of one big ice spell, it's multiple small ice ones, so it's easier to do and less draining.

"Well, do something other than protecting your own ass!"
