Kat readied herself, bending her knees slightly and flaring her wings out. Her tail flicked from side to side, keeping its movements erratic but still ready to strike out at any time. Kat watched as Xiao stared back at Kat, his eyes darkening. "I suppose you still have some fight left in you then" Xiao sighed.
*Can I afford to keep him talking? I think I have to. He is more reliant on pills clearly, but what I need is time. I don't look to be flagging at all, but once I fall it will hit me like a tonne of bricks. The problem with keeping him talking is… he might do something stupid if he has more time to think.* "Well, I'm doing alright for now. Depends how many times you are going to get back up, pop a pill and pretend you're back to full power" said Kat hoping to sound the right mix of condescending, worried for her opponent's health, with a touch of honour and trash talk. Basically, she was talking nonsense, and was honestly amazed she was able to say 'I'm doing alright now'
