He was blind, streaks of white-hot agony flaring through his vision even as he snarled with frustration as he felt her slip out from his crazed grip. Tears streaked down his face even as he blinked furiously, her hazy shape slowly coming into view. Her words, however, were much more interesting than the blade in her hands, allowing his fingers to uselessly curl around the hilt of his own sword.
"Sagittarius." He rasped back, thoughtful, curious. Why the hell had she brought him up? Unless... "You're shitting me." He grinned, twisted his head to the side and spat blood. "You're shitting me. Sagittarius." Was he the one he'd caught and killed? The thought had him laughing until his sides ached, sitting up in the fountain, but not bothering to rise.
"I can't even tell you how much I ******** enjoyed that." It was a sickly-sweet croon through those crimson teeth, deliberately barbed and meant to sink into her skin. "God didn't save him, Kunzite. I guess that says a hell of a lot about religion..."

"Shut the ******** up," said Cavalier Kunzite, which right there was possibly prize enough for facing her -- of things the stony knight was said to do to her opponents, curse at them was not enough. She gritted her teeth a moment later and took deep breaths to try and regain her balance; she was losing blood, she'd lost blood, but he was finished. She knew he was finished. All it came down to was to finish him.
She hefted Mandate, found it surprisingly light on another jolt of adrenaline, stepped towards him: "You had your chance to surrender," she said, and spat the next word, "Captain."
The next moment would bring either a teleportation away or another kill. But this one deserved to die.

He sniggered like a loon at that, half-hysterical from the pain, the adrenaline, the blood. She advanced, noble and cold as any swordsman, and he tilted his chin up to grin up at her with slightly unfocused eyes. "I did." The Captain agreed in a mocking sort of whisper, nodding sagely as though her words had been the ultimate truth.
"And yet somehow, Cavalier, you still let me get away."
There was one last grin, one damnable flash of his eyes, and even as she swung her sword down to finish him for good, he was gone, letting the blade bite harmlessly into the water.
Back in the apartment, the man was sprawled on his back, his sides still hitching with laughter that couldn't quite let itself be heard. It hurt too much.
And somehow, Captain Obsidian felt very accomplished with himself, letting his swollen, bitten tongue run across his teeth as though to catch remnants of her blood mingled with his own.
