ARGH I'm sorry. this thread was supposed to be so epic and I utterly failed at tagging it ;a;

47 saw the heated glow out of the corner of his perception and forced himself not to look. While interested in Sven's abilities now was not the time to admire and assess. He had bigger fish, err squid to fry.

The assassin had half a mind to pull the sword from its scabbard at his hip but he thought better of it because the drag on it in the water would probably make it impossible to wield for him. He held his knife firmly in a downwards grip and swam ever close to the bulk of the creature. When he finally reached it he grabbed onto the propulsion slit and used it to help swing him into position. The eye was an obvious target and 47 went for it.

The blow took out the eye but 47 was fairly certain he needed to aim higher to hit an organ for a fatal dealing blow. At least the lack of an eye would slow it down. 47 held on carefully as he anticipated the creature's flailing reaction to the attack on it. He didn't want to be shaken off or left behind so soon after getting to his target.
