Caution: Some bloody description.
The wolf had fought with great determination and Karahl had fought with great ferocity. Even as her strength waned over time and her techniques grew sloppy as the agony continued to protest with bewilderment at her set goal. Perhaps her tonfa remained virtually unscathed from its sparing use in battle but in no way could it be said the same for its wielder.
Alas, finally, the last blow was struck as that conjured bat slammed against her skull and shattered into thousands of pieces; falling like twinkling rain, then later melting and blending with the pools of blood below. Karahl was more than stunned but for now it too appeared that she had reached her limit. As the canine fell to his knees, Karahl flopped backwards and onto her backside near the wolf, staring straight ahead of her with a blankness and gaze which held no traces of cognative activity; it was even hard to tell if she was aware of just how life threatening her situation was now or not. Perhaps she had grown numb to the ringing, the pain, surge of nausea and now with blood pouring out from her mouth merely hinted at the internal injuries she had incurred as well.
Little did the feline know, that when her upper body buckled backwards and slammed into the pavement behind her that she lost consciousness at the same time as the cryo-wolf. The darkness of complete and absolute nothingness which followed was the first experience of relief for the seasoned warrior.
Some time had passed and a small group of teenagers were passing through the alleyway as means of taking a shortcut through part of the city. They froze in their tracks and gasped at the scene before them with the two bodies lying there and bleeding out.
"Oh my god!" exclaimed one.
"What the hell happened here?!" yelled another.
A third teen plucked up the courage to get closer to them.
"Are they...?" the first began to ask as they watched their friend check the vitals if the fallen.
"No, but just barely. If we don't get them to a hospital ASAP they probably won't make it." the third confirmed urgently.
"Let's just hope that they can make the trip." the second teen mumbled grimly.
