Itzal climbed the wall as fast as it could, but Zeke still managed to grab its ankle. It started kicking, trying to break free, but to no avail. Zeke threw Itzal to the ground, and leap down upon it. Zeke's daggers plunged into Itzal's chest, and it gasped in pain. Zeke twisted its gauntlets, tearing into Itzals chest. Itzal panicked, trying to figure escape, but it could not heal the wounds while the blades where still in him. Itzal tried to teleport a dagger out of its cloak, only to discover that it had actually managed to run out. Stupid, it should have been reclaiming them more religiously.
"You have tormented me for far too long. This ends now."
Itzal glanced about for a weapon, anything. But there were no loose items around. It felt the blood draining out of itself, and knew it had to act quickly. Its gaze fell upon a nearby slot machine, and in a moment of desperation, it teleported a handful of coins from the machine into its hand. With the same flick of its wrist that sends its daggers flying accurately into their target, Itzal sent the coin flying into Zeke's eye.
Zeke jerked back as the pain registered, clutching a hand to his eye. He slashed out half-blindly as he felt Itzal slip out from under him, but his blades met only air.
Itzal leapt up onto the bank of slot machines, and teleported a deck of cards into its hand. It fanned out a hand, and threw it at Zeke.
Zeke slashed the cards out of the air, blinking as his eye recovered. "Cards? Is that the nest you can do?"
"I'd look behind you before you act so cavalier."
Zeke glanced behind himself, not letting down his guard, to see the cards half-embedded in the stone wall. Zeke slashed the predicated assualt of cards without looking.
"Its amazing how much of an edge fresh cards can have if you know what you are doing." Itzal remarked as it closed the wounds torn into its torso.
