The black knight Part 1

Thanks to her shadow blink, Nika was able to catch up to Alice in a matter of minutes, though by then she was already entering the town. Before Nika could so much as utter a single word, Alice was already engaging into battle against the bandits who were still busy terrorizing the townsmen.

"Thanks for taking the trash out," Nika chuckled, but then became serious. "now come with me and no one will get hurt."

"You are right, they were trash, but so are you!" Alice shouted and lunged towards Nika and made a slashing movement with an empty fist, though it was finished with a longsword in her hand. The jet black blade took Nika by surprise, but she managed to activate her shadow armor right in time. "How is this possible? No armor can block my sword!" Alice spouted in a manly voice, making it evident another sentient being was controlling her movements.
