Naraku just grinned as the men came out. It wasn't part of the plan, but to be honest she was pissed at the amount of wounds she had received she extended a palm towards the men and placed one against the wall. "Hell Demon's Needlestorm, Hell Demon's Tendrils." Dual casting two of her most powerful spells at once. These were group control spells. Due to the darkness of the area they were in they were at her mercy. The needlestorm fired off 50 needles each equal to a strong rank weapon. The knights were foolish. Rather than use their numbers to surround and attack them they had all charged in from the front and the alley they were in was only wide enough for five to get to her at once. So her attacks would cut them down row after row. The mages stood at the back preparing some large spell together. Interesting. She knew they were capable of this and it irritated her, but she had a small amount of time to deal with it. That was partially what her second spell was used for, one much more versatile.
It seemed though that this particular group were more skilled than the other. Naraku's first attack was almost completley deflected by the first row spinning their spears rapidly. One was not quite fast enough though and he was hit by all five needles cutting him down. The one behind was only just quick enough to block, but block he did. Irritating to say the least. The tendrils were slightly more successful. They erupted form the shadows near the back row of the knights and four went for the mages, whilst the other six went for the knights. Of the ones that went for the mages only two of of them were successful. The other tendrils were stopped by a magic barrier they had around them. The six that attacked the knights were fended off, but Naraku could still use them. They were quickly retracted and used to defend herself from the first five knights attacks. Only one managed to get in, cutting her arm slightly.
Her attack had not done as much as she hoped, but it had killed two of the mages who had been so focused on their spell that they hadn't been able to respond when their barrier failed. It had destroyed two of her tendrils, but she still had eight more and with only two mages casting their spell would be a lot weaker.
Fluffy had transformed back to his normal state and returned to the rooftops. HE was watching the battle with interest, but had not interfered because he would need more time to resume his large form. Such a shame.
