The ruined streets of Red Grave were quiet until the sharp sound of giant scissors scraping against stone echoed between the buildings.
You immediately drew Alastor.
Trish lifted Sparda onto her shoulder.
“Death Scissors,” she said.
A pair of the demons emerged from the rubble, drifting toward you with their enormous blades snapping open and shut.
You glanced at Trish.
“Two?”
She smiled. “I'll take the one on the left.”
You nodded. “Got it.”
The Death Scissors rushed forward.
You met yours head-on with Alastor, while Trish engaged the other with Sparda. The ruined street filled with the clash of blades as both demons darted around the wreckage.
One suddenly vanished.
You looked around.
“Trish?”
“Above you!”
You rolled aside as the Death Scissors dropped down.
Trish immediately charged in with Sparda, forcing it back.
“Nice save.”
“You're welcome.”
Your own opponent came rushing from behind.
You spun around, raising Alastor just in time.
“Looks like yours wants a turn too.”
Trish laughed.
“Then let's give them one.”
You fought back-to-back, Alastor and Sparda moving in sync as the Death Scissors attacked from opposite sides.
A final coordinated strike sent both demons crashing down.
The ruined street fell silent again.
You rested Alastor against your shoulder.
Trish lowered Sparda.
“Not bad.”
You grinned. “We make a pretty good team.”
Trish nodded.
“Yeah. Let's keep it that way.”
