Adrenaline rushed through Lo-chent's veins the instant she saw the tall man draw his blades. The sparks emitted from the metal clashing together blinded her momentarily as she fumbled for her dirk. Finding the handle, she whipped the vicious blade out and took up a fighter's stance, balancing her weight on her back foot.
In the same moment, Acharak narrowly missed a slit throat from Alucard's blades. The thin, stick figure-like black form of his body started to shift and change. Rapidly he assumed his warrior form, resembling a sleek cat that had the essence of a sabertooth tiger.
He snapped viciously at the vampire's feet, peeved at being so easily caught off guard.
In the meantime, Lo-chent ducked and weaved towards the man, like a little bird catching insects.
She was used to guerilla fighting, not open fights in an arena filled with sand.
"Sure wish I had some goddammned cover..." she thought to herself.
As if in response, the sand around her lifted itself and started forming into shapes. The "bloodsucker" as Acharak had called it, disappeared behind a column of sand. Trees formed out of the sand all around her, resembling the forest she had been in before her abduction.
"Well, that's something at least," she thought quickly. She touched one of the sand trees, feeling its firmness. Swiftly she hoisted herself into it's boughs. Seeking the tall man, she hovered in the branches above him, planning to jump him and catch him off his guard.
I don't really feel like fighting for no reason, anyhow...
