Draken discarded his sword and sheath, though well away from Aden's reach. "Oh, I can wait," he replied with a slight, exausted grin. By now, he was desperate to get into the hut, just to get out of the sun and found himself slowly walking backwards toward it. "'Regret It'? What do you plan to do, bleed on me?"

Aden chuckled, "I could do that yes, but you forget I am one of the best Elvin warriors in three Kingdoms and I was trained by the very dojo now that gives the strongest warriors. Plus, this is a mere cut compared to the one across my back and down my leg." He said feeling his strength fade with each second. He knew where Draken was going and he pushed his body to that limit so that he could make it to the door. He ended up standing right next to Draken. Aden's eyes seemed to be made out of fire as he looked at Draken.

"Best elven warrior or not, you'll soon faint from blood loss nevertheless." Draken was pinned against the shady wall of the hut by Aden's fierce gaze, but he wasn't much intimidated. "I can wait here all night until you die if I have to. I'm not going back to Osirus empty-handed."

"You have that truth on me, but here. I'll make you a deal. I'll give you something that Osiris knows I'll never give. Think about it. This is a war, you need to give and take some if you are to survive under Osiris's rule. If you carry something of mine back to Osiris I am sure he'll think me dead. It'll give me enough time to recooperate and in that time it's enterly possible for Osiris to come here." Talking was certainly a drain on his energy as he reached into his shirt and pulled off an exact copy of his necklace. The waterfall with three blue gems. He offered it to Draken, his gaze no less fierce.

Draken's eyes narrowed at his offer. "I'm not a fool, and I came here to kill, not strike deals with my victims!" He pushed through, into the hut where it was cooler and slid the dagger from the table into his right hand and turned back to Aden in the entrance. "I'm going to kill one of you, I don't care which. Since you're...'leader', I'll allow you to decide which it will be."

Aden growled and followed him in, "You kill any one I swear to god that you'll die." He said moving rapidly to his weapons and slipping them around his wrists. Even though blood was causing him to rapidly loose strength he would fight, "We're pretty even. You're almost drained from the heat and sun and I'm close to my limit due to the loss of blood. Only thing is that I have friend here and you don't." He said motioning to Azazeal. He would be quite glad for some help about now. He knew what he needed to work on right now.

"-No.." He trailed off slightly. "I'm clearly the winner here. You're dying, and I'm here cooling off. You may have a friend but-" He paused, smirking, "I doubt he would move when I'm within throwing range of that woman." He meant the Prophet, of course. "So then, Who will it be, 'leader'?" With a glance around the room, he reconsidered his offer. "Except you. You'll die anyway."

Aden looked around. He gave a weak smile to Lady Bassette before saying to Draken, "My choice is you. You'll be the one dying here." He grabbed his weapons and stepping so he could move easily to any one in the room he made his attack at Draken, "I gave you the choice to live idiot. You've obviously never heard of what I can do." He said smirking as he attacked as if he had never been injured. The blood loss was steady and in his mind he knew he had ten minutes before he would faint and be dead within five minutes of that.

Draken stepped back, but the blade cut clean through his clothing, revealing a thin line of blood. His arm with the dagger swung in for a back stab, his left hand was clenched around Aden's wrist to hold his weapon back.
(Gotta go for a bit after this one, I've been glued to this all morning that I forgot to eat breakfast and lunch, and the dog is begging for a walk)

(Okie dokie. I probably should help my friend advertise for this other site too...We should also wait for Azazeal/Bassette/Dulcimer to post...)
Aden blocked the attack coming at it with his second weapon and twisted his body in a motion that was painful for him, but it could also jerk his arm free. He took another stab at him. His eyes burning with fire. He wasn't going to die and let this man kill the Prophet, Azazeal, or even Dulcimer. The only person to die today would be him or maybe Aden himself as well. The burning pain had faded to a numb sensation and he knew that meant he was reaching his end and it wasn't a good thought.

Draken wasn't prepared for such force from a wounded fighter. Aden's stab slid from Draken's dagger and slashed through his side, just missing any vitals. Draken cried out as the pain suddenly surged through his body and the blood pooling around the area made him panic. Some of the poison had gotten into his system but it wasn't enough to kill or do any real damage, just to cause discomfort. He brought his knee up forcefully, attempting to knock Aden out.

Aden moved back and used his arm to divert the knee before he brought another slash in, "I warned you not to under estimate me." A lot of the blood around them was Aden's, but he was glad to see some panic in his system, "I won't slow down until I faint." He warned as he brought his weapon in for another slash. As soon as he let his body relax he was going to faint. He attacked another time with both of his hands as it was free.

Draken's dagger was locking with Aden's, but it wasn't doing any help to keep it away. All his strength was deminished. He realized only his constant staggering backwards was keeping him from harm's way. One of his attacks reached his flesh and made a gash across his chest. Another sliced his leg, and before he knew it, his knees buckled and he was on the ground.

Aden smirked as his attacks started hitting more and more. Once the other was on the ground he stood up straight and remained calm and cold, "I'll let you leave with your life if you go now! I would rather not bring myself to Osiris's level by killing you." Aden stood back closer to Lady Bassette and the other two men. He needed to relax, but as soon as he did he was going to faint, collasp or maybe die. "Ten...nine....eight....seven..." He said waiting to see if that would motivate him.

Draken rolled over and propped himself up against the wall, panting heavily. He knew now that he had gotten in way over his head this time. If he left now, he would die in the desert. If he made it, Osirus would likely kill him. If he stayed, he would be killed anyway. His dagger was out of his reach, he realized there was no way he could win this. He had already been sentenced death- it was just his choice of how he died. "I..-I don't know..." he muttered, not knowing what else to say as he stared at Aden, eyes plagued with fear.
