Shadow didn't even blink as a large group of almost a dozen armed men advanced towards him, "Oh come on now, this is hardly fair,"
The closest one to him smiled confidently as he charged, his weapon drawn and ready.
Shadow effortlessly knocked his arm aside, reaching out and snapping the soldiers neck killing him instantly. It took only a split second but to the watching soldiers it seemed almost to go in slow motion as their comrade fell to the ground lifeless, "As I was saying before I was so rudely interrupted. This is hardly fair, if you'd like I can wait for you to get reinforcements."
Shadow grinned darkly as he drew out his long sword, "In three seconds, anyone still standing here will begin dying. If you don't want me to kill you, I'd suggest you run. If you're smart enough to, I promise I won't kill you." Shadow smiled as a few soldiers intstantly turned tail and ran, Fools, all I said was that 'I' wouldn't kill them, didn't say anything about my friends. He looked at the remaining soldiers, enjoying the obvious fear in their eyes, realizing the hoplessness of their situation, "Why so tense? Tell you what," Shadow put his sword away and smiled, "I won't even use my weapon. That sound fair?" He smiled as he spotted a few smiles on some of the faces. "Let's start then shall we?"
"DIE!" One soldier charged, followed by a number of the others.
Fools. Shadow smiled as he doged the initial attack, grabbing the soldiers arm and throwing him into the advancing group, knocking them to the floor. He had no time to enjoy as he moved backwards just in time to avoid a slash from another soldier's sword, he grabbed the person's arm and twisted it back, jutting the sword into his back as he still held it and letting him fall to the ground, "Weak, you cross fools are all so weak!" Shadow charged into the group, a stray punch flew at him from one of the soldiers, he grabbed his fist, smiling as he squeezed tightly, breaking every bone in the human's hand and then slamming his head into his face, blood pouring from the soldiers now broken nose.
"Don't give up! There's only one of him!" A man shouted from the group as more came forward attacking.
"I may only be one," Shadow laughed a bit as two soldiers charged him from the sides, he grapped both their wrists and spun around sharply, releasing them both and hurling them into the crowd, "But I have more strength in my pinky than all of you put together."
