The Last Supper - Hunting Grounds

[ Chosen idols will find themselves abruptly taken, in their unit's room one moment and out in a courtyard the next. An impossibly tall and incredibly dense garden hedge divides the courtyard into sections—moreover, it increasingly gets taller when climbed, preventing its residents from escaping their slice of the courtyard.

A few sparse bushes and trees decorate the area, but there's nothing to keep the hunted away from the hunter.

Everyone will find their unit powers are off. However, Hands and Mouths can feel the power deep within themselves—they can grasp that power and turn into their monster form, should they desire so. Hands will find themselves in a natural disadvantage, however: they're much smaller than their Mouth counterparts, diminutive in size, and moreover, while they acquire whatever claws and teeth their monster form affords them, Mouths are capable of strength beyond that—faster agility and strength at minimum, though they may also have supernatural abilities, such as the ability to breathe fire. ]

[ She could try to bust the bat, but instead she ducks under the swing and throws with her rope dart -- the counterweight end, not the dagger end -- trying to lash it tight around his feet. This time her sword strike comes from below, trying to impale him under the ribcage; another quick death, if it hits. ]

[ If she manages to tie up his legs, she'll yank on her rope, hard, to try and being him down. ]

[He dives to the side, to avoid the tip of her sword - doesn't manage entirely, the blade slicing a red gash down his ribs]

[The rope he doesn't see coming. It's too low, and it's on his blind side, besides; it tangles with his legs, and he goes down hard, all the air rushing out of him when he hits]

[The nailbat swings up toward her knees, trying to drive her back. The other hand scrambles behind him, fairly certain she won't be driven back, to throw a handful of the courtyard dirt up into her eyes as soon as she steps into range]

[ She catches the bat with her foot (some of the nails pierce her boot, but she doesn't even flinch) and she kicks down hard, aiming to put the bat on the ground with her very sturdy boot on top of it. At the dirt throw, she gives a little smile and twitches, moving almost too fast to see as she moves just enough to dodge the brunt of it, and no more. ]

Not bad. [ Then her sword flies down in a bright arc, trying to take off his head. Quick and neat, no suffering. ]

[He yanks on the nailbat, hard, as soon as she sets her foot on it - pulls up on it, with all his strength, trying to knock her off-balance]

[He doesn't wait for her to stop talking before he realizes it's not going to work - abandons the bat and rolls to one side with fractions of a second to spare, the sword catching nothing but a few strands of blue hair]

[ She has to admire his fight, even though this is delaying the inevitable. His feet are still bound up in her rope and rolling won't hold her off for more than a moment. Still, it's good to see someone fighting so hard. ]

[ She gives a hard yank on her rope to stop him from getting far, sweeps the bat across the courtyard with her boot. Then she throws her dagger with one hand and pounces, swinging her sword with the other. Her dagger's aim is to bury into the ground just ahead of where he's rolling, to stop him from moving far enough that she can't get a clean hit with her katana this time, still going for the neck. It would be easier, perhaps, to take out an arm or leg, but she doesn't want him to suffer. ]

[The dagger stops him in his tracks; he pulls up short, to avoid getting hit]

[One hand goes to yank it out of the ground, trying to arm himself again; the other comes up, instinctively, to block. Only, the nailbat is long gone, and all he has to block with is his own arm]

[He's got nowhere left to go, and that clean neck cut is hers to take, if she's willing to cut through his arm to do it]

[ Good luck yanking anything she's thrown out of the ground, but even if he could she'd just yank her rope again and take it back. She's not good at much, but her mind and body were made for exactly this. Which is why she shows no hesitation at slicing her way entirely through his arm and cutting his neck clean through. ]

[ Only when it's done does she stop and sag, as though exhausted. ]
Sorry.

[ She yanks her dagger from the ground and her sword from his neck; for herself she won't bother eating, but for her unit... she pauses to consider whether to take any of the body back for Aradia. (As it turns out, a pointless choice.) In the end she uses her sword to slice off a bit of his flank, which won't be recognizable as a distinctly human body part. Maybe she'll eat some of this if she doesn't know where it came from. ]

[She's welcome to do with the rest of him what she wants; by this point, there's nothing left of him to have an opinion one way or the other]
