Giles is defending himself like crazy, he has taken a few cuts but it doesn't look like any are serious. The soldiers are pressing him so that he can't attack them. A few steps away I target the three soldiers on Giles' right.
"Shining Slash!"
The slash of light sent out by my sword cuts the three soldiers in half at the waist. This frees up Giles to stab one of the soldiers on his left, thirteen left. Just then a scream draws everyone's attention to Sidran, Koko is standing on his horse behind him, and the tip of her short sword is sticking out of his chest.
All eyes are on Koko, even the soldiers have stopped to look at her, she raises her free hand in the air. With a flick of her wrist she is suddenly holding three knives, her arms snaps down, and each knife finds the eye of a soldier. Three more down, only ten left, two to one odds isn't that bad.
