Aquila never did appreciate others interrupting her fights. She despised "acts of valor" to save the "defenseless lady" - Which she obviously wasn't, by the way! She was perfectly capable of defending herself - and leaving a heavy blow to her enemies. Her work required her to be more than just a capable fighter, though. It required precision, a state of greater apathy, and the ability to set in motion a devious plan. Aquila met all the requirements and more. She excelled in the arts of acting, and even those who knew her best barely knew her. Anyone could claim they knew everything about her, but nobody except herself could back up that claim.
The man who jumped in her fight swiftly knocked out one of her opponents. Her possessive nature flared in indignation. But her far more logical side prevented her from barrelling towards the man and murdering him out of cold blood. With an ally or at least someone who shared a common enemy with her, she could reserve more energy and not waste as much on mere shrimps such as the muggers. With this, and only this in mind, the silver-haired woman reluctantly allowed the man to continue fighting with her. She hoped he felt honored and lucky, for she never allowed just anyone to fight with her, as an equal. Such a person had to be incredibly special. This man wasn't incredibly special but even so, Aquila was letting him fight with her. That in itself made him incredibly special.
She flung her knife in the direction of the incoming rebel. The handle of her blade had jutted out of the foolish man's body before she ripped it away. The stupid mugger staggered back, covering his stomach with his hand. As she stepped towards the man, she detected movement rushing towards her. At the last second, she spun around and, surprisingly, deflected the attack, glaring at the "surprise" attacker. She was quite irritated that he had interrupted her. She showed her frustration by telling the man off angrily. Being the wonderfully kind person she was, Aquila stabbed him in the right knee. She smirked when he doubled over in front of her, annoyingly unaware of the opportunity he was presenting her. With a tch, she slammed the handle of her blade into his head, bringing the unlucky man down.
She spun around and focused her attention on the last and remaining man, who stared at her in trepidation. She threw back her head in delight and cackled. When she finished her evil laugh, she was wearing a mischievous and twisted grin that naturally sent shivers down most of her audience and especially her target. She arrogantly strutted towards him, making him tremble and clumsily back up. Her eyes twinkled maliciously, obviously pleased that he was frightened of her. The death that they seemed to promise and her almost prolonged steps made her appear like the devil prepared to torture a soul. Her words certainly didn't do anything to comfort the man.
Softly, she purred, "Hope you enjoy the sweet taste of death."
Without hesitance, she bolted for him. He quickly rushed away from the obviously angry young woman after him, but soon found himself at the end of her blade. His eyes were wide with fear when they met her cold and sinister eyes.
"Goodbye, you good for nothing scumbag," Aquila hissed.
She dealt a fierce blow to his head. The unfortunate man would never breathe after that.
Aquila stepped away from the now dead man and spun towards the man with the long, dark hair. The gleam of death was evident in her eyes and the way she walked towards him. When she was finally up in his face, her wicked smile evaporated, and her eyes loosened their death glare. They lightened and seemed to sparkle cheerfully, and her smile brightened exceedingly. She offered her hand out to him, gazing at the stranger expectantly. Not really waiting for him to meet her hand, she introduced herself, though she kept her hand out.
"Hi there! Thanks for helping me, even though I didn't need any help. I'm Aquila! Who are you?" she chirped.
Despite her cheerful attitude, Aquila was seething inside. Being such a fantastic actor and having been one since she was a child, there were no signs that she was angry. But Aquila was. She forced herself to think lightly, but underneath it all, deep down, she was burning with hot rage. Aquila had been particularly angry that he had gotten in the middle of her fight when he had no business interfering. She really had wanted to fight the muggers on her own. He didn't even end up being helpful. Aquila desired for revenge, but for that reason, she did not allow herself to immediately attack the target of her annoyance.
