Fight the assassin.

Fang tackles Niki down onto the ground and grabs her breastplate hungrily.

"Get off me!" Niki demands. "We're in the middle of a fight here!"

"Are you saying you'd be fine with this if we weren't~?" she teases, pinning her down. She then yanks her breastplate clean off her body and tosses it aside. It's then far too late... the weak point is reached. Fangs hands grab her breasts through the fabric of her top and she squeezes them tight.

Looks like she's distracted. And if I try to pull them apart, even if I can, the assassin will shot again. It's up to me. She's far too fast to do anything obvious. Even if I had a crossbow with several bolts, she'd probably see the shots coming and duck away. The distance is too great between us... but that distance might help me too.

You stretch your hand out, draw your sword, and enter a combat stance, hoping that the strange position is something she shrugs off as just an odd technique she hasn't seen before. In reality, you're aiming a spell.

Your sword also begins to glow pink.

"Hey! I don't know who you are, but I'm your opponent now," you yell. Then you quickly whisper, "Entangle".

She pulls back on the drawstring and aims it towards you.

"Go ahead," you taunt. "I don't have Niki's buckler to save me anymore."

The arrow fires through the air. However, you reflect it quickly with a movement of your magic sword.

"Too much time to react! You'll have to do better than that."

The assassin squints. She leaps through the air, all while drawing another arrow from her quiver. It fires off as she lands, when all of the sudden blue tendrils burst out from beneath her. They wrap around her arms, legs, and body, holding her still. The bow falls to the ground. It looks like your trap worked gloriously! However, the fired arrow whizzes not at you, but to your right. It then sticks right into Niki's shoulder.

She watches it dissolve curiously. But then, the hearts shine in her eyes. She looks between you and Fang with colour starting to fill her face.

With the assassin trapped, you ponder how you can make the leap over to grab her. But as you do, Niki throws the catfolk off her body, and grabs the fabric of your tunic. She bites her lip as she pushes you down against the rooftop. Meanwhile, Fang looks absolutely thrilled to be tossed onto her ass. She pants heavily and giggles before stumbling to her feet, and wrapping her arms around Niki's back.

"You want to bring him into the fun~?" Fang asks.

You're unable to move under Niki's impressive strength.
