Vol. 5 - Chapter 26

With Sinneah by her side, Ash rushed in. Her hands gripping her sword tightly, she gritted her teeth and charged forward. The Wrath Nightmare saw her approaching and swung its greatsword in a massive horizontal arc. Ash's momentum was such that dodging the attack would be impossible, so, she braced herself and raised her sword vertically. 

Their weapons clashed and the impact sent ripples all throughout Ash's body, but her arms held steady. 

Come on, keep going!  She tried to tell herself. She continued her advance before the Nightmare could adjust its position, and looked to slash through the enemy's only remaining arm. Before she could, though, that Gluttony demon's tongue made an unwelcome return and it lashed the back of Ash's torso, stinging her before Sinneah went in between them. She kicked the Gluttony demon away, and both parties put distance between each other, waiting once more.
