Issei awoke with a start. The devil tried to rise, but a plated boot planted itself onto his chest and forced him back down, effectively pinning him to the ground. Asia cried out and wrapped her arms around the trunk-like leg, futilely pulling at it. A blur of silver was the response she received, and the former priestess was backhanded casually away, sent sprawling by an armored fist. The one who landed the blow glared down at her, his iron visage cold and merciless.
"Your turn will come, witch," the Templar nodded to the knight next to him, "Finish it, brother."
The warrior raised his halberd, the bladed tip aiming for the boy's heart. Issei glared at the point that dangled over his chest and continued to struggle. Boosted Gear clawed uselessly against the man's legplates, leaving thin furrows in the armor but doing nothing else. His tormentor let out a steely chuckle. He could hear Irina screaming out Issei's name, Asia doing the same, and in the meantime all he could do was try and pound his way sluggishly through the foes that waylaid him at every side.
The knight heaved his weapon up, readying for the final strike. Plated digits squeezed the haft in a firm grip, then abruptly relaxed. The halberd slid free from spasming fingers, and the Templar looked down to where the tip of a demon sword jutted from his chest. He made a wet, choking sound. Blood weeped from the faceslit in his helm. Like a falling statue, the knight keeled over, his knees hitting the ground with a metallic thud, followed by the rest of the body and revealing his killer at last.
"I don't leave my friends." Kiba spat.
