Now with the guards circling him he had no choice but to fight his way out.

Th guards made their move simultaneously lunging at Raven swords raised striking head high.

*Clang* the swords of the guards all met in the middle, but the guards were all now looking at each other Raven wasn't at the end of their swords.

Raven had ducked at exactly the right moment and was now crouching on the ground in the centre of the guards attack, Raven withdrew his sword and spun slashing at the guards hands, the guards yelled in pain and dropped their swords.

Despite their injuries two of the guards lunged at Raven bare handed.
The first guards struck Raven in the stomach with a well placed blow, Raven doubled over in pain not expecting a quick attack from the injured men, the second blow met it's mark on Raven's chin, Raven fell back shocked by the blow. The guards retrieved their swords ready to deliver the final blow but Raven was ready, the guards strik donwards towards him Rven raised his sword and blocked both swords in mid strike, he then parried their swords to the one side using the weight of their blow to over balance them giving him his opportunity, Raven struck at both guards with two consecutive slashes to the mid section openning up deep slashing wounds on their stomachs, both guards fell to the floor dead from loss of blood.

Raven stood up and noticed the other two guards who had been watching they stared at him frightened and made a dash for the door fleeing with their lives.

"Now wheres my informant?" Raven said?
"Last i saw hw ran into the back" came Shadow's voice in his head.
"Right let us get what we came for then get out of here before more guards come."
