Hazel stood outside the basement door, a hand on her blade as she quietly opened the door, glancing to the side where KAWN stood. “...Who takes the first step?” KAWN whispered, as they both looked down the stairs, the stairwell being dark as Hazel took a quiet deep breath as she whispered a response. “I will.” Quietly and slowly stepping onto the first step as it slightly creaked, but nothing happened other than that. Hazel paused, reaching into her small bag and pulling out one of the few remaining smoke bombs, giving KAWN a questioning look as he shook his head and Hazel put the smoke bomb back into the bag. Hazel silently took a step down again, however this time the stairs turn into a slide and spikes come out of the ground at the bottom of the stairway catching them both off guard as KAWN summoned his blade, stabbing it into the slide as Hazel stabbed hers into the wall, further down the stairwell and in front of the spikes. “WOAH MAN HOW’D YOU DO THAT IN SUCH A SHORT TIME?!” Player shouted in glee but, also clearly in shock as they gripped their knife at seeing Hazel as they joyfully watched the two struggle to stay upright. “Logic.” ‘KAWN?’ said, grinning. KAWN pulled out his blade and slid down to Hazel, grabbing her shoulder and teleporting the two away from the spikes as he let out a breath, a quiet thank you was said from Hazel before they both looked up facing ‘KAWN?’ and Player. “Hey Player, which are you gonna take?” ‘KAWN?’ asked. Hazel tightened her grip on her sword silently, “Dunno… Whoever attacks me first, I guess.” Player responded. Within a moment KAWN went to slash Player, however he stopped midway. “Heh, Stuck?~” ‘KAWN?’ Taunted KAWN as Hazel dashed forward, going to stop Player from getting any free hits onto him. “ACK-” Player scrambled to put up their knife, clashing with Hazel’s blade, ducking out of the way and slashing KAWN’s arm with a grin. KAWN winced after getting hit, getting unfrozen in the process while Hazel stepped back to evade a slash sent their way by ‘KAWN?’. Hazel quickly stepped forward once again, aiming to clash with ‘KAWN?’ while shooting KAWN a worried look. “KAWN won't be able to work well while I’m around.~” ‘KAWN?’ taunted before a small round of quick slashes were aimed against him by Hazel who now had a hint of anger in her eyes.
“Getting angry only makes you slip.” He said, smirking ever so slightly before slashing four times, aiming to hit her or knock her weapon out of her hand as Hazel avoided three… However the fourth slash hit her arm as she put it up as a guard. “You're slipping,” he said. Player who blinked twice looked to KAWN, who was catching his breath, and went to slash him. KAWN looked up, parried the attack and froze again. “Dang this guy lagging real time.” Player said, quietly giggling under their breath. ‘KAWN?’ stifled a small giggle, “Nice one.” he said, before going silent as KAWN unfroze, both Hazel and KAWN exchanging silent words with a glance before Hazel dashed to Player, bringing down her sword in a swift motion. Player swiftly avoided the attack that Hazel brought down on them, glancing to ‘KAWN?’. “Ah shii…” Player paused, making- trying to make eye contact with the shadow covering ‘KAWN?’s eyes, “Don’t lose focus ‘KAWN?’-” Player said, twirling their knife. “KAWN- You have to get outta here-” Hazel started, “No! I won’t let you battle them alone!-” Hazel sighed, going to clash with Player once more. “I’ll be fine! Just go-!” Player while in mid clash with Hazel grinned, backing away to stand on a crate. “Ooo!~ Drama… 2.0 GIMME SOME POPCORN!!” Player said, clearly enjoying this. “Seriously Player, don’t let your guard down-” ‘KAWN?’ stated. “I’m sorry- This is just so awesome to watch! I can’t help itttt.” Player groaned in response. Hazel quietly paused before muttering something that Player nor ‘KAWN?’ would be able to hear, before she placed her hand on his shoulder and teleported him elsewhere. Hazel quietly turned back to Player and ‘KAWN?’. “...I’ll get KAWN. You keep Hazel busy, Player.” ‘KAWN?’ said to Player, “Will do!” they responded before ‘KAWN?’ vanished and Hazel silently tied her hair up, gripping her weapon ever so slightly. “Well, looks like it’s just the two of us now…” Player said with a grin. -- Player rightfully belongs to @UnderswapSans- (Mikey, He/They) KAWN + ‘KAWN?’ (Also known as Bones) rightfully belongs to @flamingblitzshard (Flame, he/they) Hazel rightfully belongs to @Hallow_Halloween (Nova, They/them) Any claim of these characters in any sort of writing and or art will get you reported, these characters belong to us, Writing was done by @Hallow_Halloween -- HI GUYS, NOVA HERE AFTER THE 11 HOUR SCRASH, MAN THAT WAS SOMETHIGN I WOULD HAVE POSTED THIS SOONER SORRY!
