Within a few seconds of the one that had shown three more assailants made themselves known , but Mina could hear fighting all through the castle . The entire kingdom was under siege , she would not allow such a thing . She continued to fight bringing two of them down with relative ease , however the third made it past her . She was quick to turn on her heels and make chase , the pointed spear tip on her pole arm becoming useful . Landing a critical blow on them before they got too far , now making for the top floor . She knew the princess would be able to hold her own , however she did not want to risk such a thing .
She fought her way through a mob of them , seeming to shrug off every hit she was taking . Save for one in particular , getting body checked clean through a supporting pillar . It took her a solid minute and a half to get up from that hit , her entire body aching from it . She would keep fighting though , a sense of dread coursing through her body . Three of her ribs were broken , however she did not care about that . Her focus was fighting her way up to the princess , she made her way through the attackers . Getting even more roughed up along her path , coughing up a bit of blood .
There were just too many of them though , she blocked an attack meant for another one of the guards . She could feel her legs nearly give out from the strength behind it , this assailant was nearly ten feet tall!!! . Humans did not grow to that size to her knowledge , the fighter was clad in all green plate armor with an Orcish insignia . Clearly the one leading this coup against her precious homeland , but how had he gotten into the kingdom . Past all of the guards even , past the soldiers ?
Questions she would not have time to ask as his next swing sent her flying down a hallway and into a wall , a hit that would even send most fresh primes reeling . She was in a bad way and knew it , every muscle and bone in her body hurt . Somehow though she pulled herself to her feet , blood running down her pretty face . Her clothing tattered and torn , her undergarments slightly exposed by the damage to her armor and attire . Her left arm was also decidedly broken , she could not even feel it at the moment .
She had one chance to survive this , failure was not an option . She had to do something that might get her hung , she was only a secondary . She had hidden what she was truly capable of , focusing all of her remaining strength to one point in her body . She made a mad charge for the gigantic beast , her eyes focused on the target . Her shallow breathing hitched in her chest , her armor clad boots clicking on the stone floor beneath her . The hallway blurred to her vision , only one target in her eyes .
It made a massive swing of its sword , her already useless left arm thrown up to block it . She did not scream , she did not even flinch . Her counter-strike was a stroke of brilliance . Using the spear tip of her pole-axe right into one of the eye holes of the beasts armor , pushing it through the other side through sheer force of will .
Her primal scream when she connected was something that every invader took notice of , as she brought the thrust into a full swing . Ripping the head clean off of this vile beast .
" VILE INTERLOPERS !! FLEE IN TERROR OF THE MIGHT OF OUR KINGDOM .. RUN NOW AND BE SPARED THIS DAY .. ELSE YOU FACE EXECUTION OF YOUR ENTIRE TRIBE AT THE EDGE OF MY BLADE!!! "
It was a bluff , but an effective one . She had nothing left , barely even able to stand . The invading force pushed back now by the rallying guard with the princess leading them , though her own victory was not unnoticed . The princess had seen and heard what she had just accomplished , one of the invaders leaders fell to a low ranking guard . However it would not be without a price .
Mina was a secondary and thus , unable to regenerate from injuries as quickly as a prime could . She had also incurred a potential career ending injury , a stump of an arm where her left arm once was . Four of her ribs were also broken , both of her legs , and one of her eyes was experiencing some blindness currently . Her breath escaped her ruby lips , and sleep suddenly took her . Taking a fall face first onto the stone floor in front of her .
