We have no planned kills in this thread, but you are allowed to have your character contact the warring NPCs! <3 The lady on the left that Ezequiel has engaged with is Maaike Jari, and she is riding a bright chestnut horse, and the one on the right is Simona Van Dael, and she is riding a dark bay dun. Simona's horse can be killed, as she will be fleeing the scene on foot (to later be caught in a trap along the borders). The other two will be fleeing on horseback, so while their horses can be wounded and they can be dismounted for some of the fighting, it would be a good idea to leave them about to re-mount and retreat towards the end of the thread. You can take a look at the characters here.
The muscles in his body were smooth and hard, long and lean like iron. In this form, he was a creature built to enact death's wishes - A reaper in mortal form, lithe and deadly.
Even so, the mounted man had the advantage. Sirius knew this, even as he charged forward. Evolution had allowed them a two-legged form, had allowed them the intellect and adaption necessary to enslave lesser creatures, such as the equines these strangers rode. The virus had given them the ability to conceptualize weaponry, fatal things that went beyond the teeth and claws they were born with. All of these betterments made the mounted male that Sirius charged for greater, in chance, than he.
Yet, there was one thing working in the secui male's favor - His mind. It was a devilish thing, capable of great and astonishing complexity, and even when in this form it worked with the fervor of fabled machinery, terrible and wonderful. Instincts buried deep in his very blood bubbled forth, and this wicked mind took sucked them in, manipulated them to appropriate ends. The dark beast's stride lengthened, the distance between himself and the three mounted aggressors shortening, their triumphant, arrogant calls ringing in his dark ears.
Suddenly, the air above him rippled, and the grey man's bay stallion shrieked in fear and pain as it stumbled. A knife had sliced the beast's chest, and red blood oozed down one foreleg as the horse cried out in terror. Dark ears flicked back, but the King had no time to see who had come to his aid - he could not risk looking back to check, could not miss the opportunity this presented. The beast instead flattened his run to a sprint - two massive strides before his muscles contracted, and with the grace of a large cat Sirius leapt at the foundering horse. His huge secui frame twisted in the air, claws and teeth reaching for the surprised man in the saddle, momentum tearing him from the back of his mount and throwing both two-legged and four-legged creatures to the ground. Sirius hit the ground hard; His lungs wheezed, and his vision dimmed for just a second. Then he was rolling, regaining his feet, whipping about to face the man he had just downed.
Vaguely, he was aware of the presence of two others; One, the monarch was relatively sure was Itachi, and the other smelt of Salsola but was unfamiliar.
