SEP couldn't really fight with his bottle of poison, but one of his associates had a weapon that would be evenly matched against a cane. "Ryoko, this one's all you..."
Ryoko grinned and rushed forward.
Raka pushed Maria back and quickly evaded Ryoko's swing. He lashed out with his cane and struck the girl in the back. Ryoko turned and swung again, but her bat was deflected by the cane. The two users exchanged strikes even and most were parried on both sides.
"You're quick," laughed Ryoko, starting to breathe more heavily. "But you're no Jacoby Ellsbury." She swung again.
This time, Raka simply ducked. He stuck out his cane, crook-first and snagged Ryoko's right foot. He yanked back, catching her achilles tendon.
Ryoko was already off balance from the swing, and the yank of her foot was enough to pull her leg out from under her. She went straight down on her back and lost grip of her weapon.
Raka spun the cane around, now holding it normally and thrust it toward the fallen woman's neck, stopping at the last second to merely pin her to the deck. "Stop this senseless tomfoolery!" He demanded, his back to SEP and company.
"Behind you!" Cried Maria.
Raka hadn't noticed that SEP had started forward, his bottle of poison now open and ready to splash directly into the old man's face.
Raka had but a mere split-second to react...
SEP stopped, visibly stunned at the same moment in which all present heard the sound of glass splintering. Poison poured from the broken bottle. SEP let go of it, but it did not fall. It remained suspended, pinned against his chest. He felt the thin blade inside of him, just below the ribcage. "No way! Bulls***, coo!" Gasped the user.
Raka was indeed quite skilled with his cane sword, and thanks to Maria, he had just enough time to deploy it. He thrust the sword further, running it all the way through SEP.
The poison acted quickly on human tissue and was highly corrosive. SEP's chest cavity and abdomen began to melt as blood and dissolving tissue began to pour out, as if the substance was acid or some rapidly acting flesh-eating bacteria.
Raka pulled the sword out. Surprisingly the corrosive poison did not affect metal.
SEP collapsed.
"YOU BASTARD!" Yelled Ryoko. She struggled to get up, but began to cough and make choking sounds as the pressure of the cane against her neck increased.
"Well, damn..." Said Fire. He quickly torched the toxic body of SEP until it was burnt to a crisp, then extinguished it, as to not burn the whole ship.
Maria took the sword from Raka and sprayed it with window cleaner, then wiped it down until it was completely clean and free of any poison residue before handing it back to its owner.
Ryoko wasn't struggling anymore. "You know, that was pretty badass and now that sexy SEP is dead, I kinda feel like wanting to kill you two was s***ty of me..."
Raka let her up.
