Guards
The guard fighting Valarie's eyes widened as he felt his hand being gripped by her tiny one. It was an unexpectedly quick move. More importantly, it was one that required either great speed, practice or anticipation. Something was off about all of this. While he was thinking, his jaw was kocked upward by a kick, sending him reeling backward. However, while he was struck, he was not stunned. Planting his heels, he took the opportunity to yank her towards him again, balling his free hand into a fist and shooting it directly into her solarplexius. Hopefully that would stun her long enough to finish the fight.
Meanwhile, the other guard pressed a button on the inside of his collar. It was a call for a small squad of backup. Assuming the assailant is competent, there were two types of invaders: those that were too weak to take on the guards and thus preformed a distraction and those who were so strong they could take on the entire force single-handedly. From how she was fighting, it seemed like the first.
What they really needed was orders from the duke.
Meanwhile in the Duke's office
The door swung open. "Duke Taro!"
"Woooooooo!"
As it turned out, the duke was just sort of spinning in his office chair. He was spinning so fast that the only reason the grunt could tell it was him was because of his oversized head. The man frowned.
"We have an intruder! Its an unidentified blond woman!"
"Forest?!" he said, his head wobbling back and forth.
"No someone else!"
"Let me take a look."
The duke stared at the screen for a moment. "Hmmmm......"
