Degra continued her assault on the newcomer. She was mildly surprised to find that this man was able to hold his own against the barrage of attacks she threw at him. But saying that, she was not entirely sure about who or what this person was. Something didn't seem quite right about the person. He seemed more than a mere human. However, she stopped thinking as, out of the corner of her eye, the other man decided to intervene.
If she had managed to succeed in her attack upon the man with the gun, after making several slashes, that would surely wound him really badly if he didn't escape the movement before hand, she would backflip away, pushing him away from her and the turn her attention to the other.
If her opponent managed to get away from the attack, she would keep moving, to make herself less of a target to the man.
He drew out two weapons, and performed some ability, which merged the two weapons and grafted them to his own arm.
She smirked, anticipating the attack that followed. Both her and the one she had first attacked were near the edge of the ship when the man with the gun-arm made his attack. It seemed a sly move, but also a clever one at that, when he fired a shot from his weapon. Degra made a backflip the exact second her opponent had fired. She was used to being shot at, so she knew exactly when to move when she could see someone aiming a gun at her.
But Degra didn't expect the bright flash from the gun, and was momentarily blinded. She snarled and closed her eyes, raising one of her arms to shield them. It was lucky she had moved, otherwise she could have been hit. It only took her a few seconds to recover from this, though, and neither of the two seemed to have noticed the opportunity of which they could attack her. She was glad for that, and next time she wouldn't be so careless if her opponent was to pull off a move like that again.
She turned to the man with the gun and decided to charge at him. If he brought his arm up to shoot at her, she would dodge to the side and continue her charge. Then, when she was still several metres away, she would leap at him, covering the remaining distance in a split second, to hopefully come down onto his shoulders, and start hacking away at his face. While performing this attack, though, she remained concious of her other opponent, in case he decided to try and do anything.
