While in the midst of flying back through the air, he regained his composure, summoning his strength as he willed himself forward.
...Shadow Step! He thought.
Stopping his backward momentum, he dashed through the shadows, managing to catch the rough man off of his guard by his sudden reappearance.
Without a moment of hesitation, he dropped down to swing himself, curving a sharp kick to take out the vampire's legs.
"Wah--!" Leonid let out.
Falling into his rear with a thud onto the soft snow, Leonid held a surprised look as he sat there for a moment.
A moment was all he needed, using another step into the shadows to disappear before the scarlet eyes of the brutish vampire. Reappearing directly behind the fallen vampire of a light-brown complexion, he took advantage of his compromised position.
I'll get nowhere in a punch-out, so…! He thought.
