"Don't worry, Medea. We managed to subdue two of them anyway, so now we're really only waiting on your Noble Phantasm to-" Your eyes widen as you see movement in the distance in front of you and behind Medea, and the faint whistling of a projectile!

This can only mean one of the Ninja Assassins was summoned! And in Japan no less!

You pull the kunai out of your arm before using it to deflect another one sent at you. "Master! are you OK?!" Medea sounds worried for you, and you can't help but smile at her. Something like this won't stop you from using your left arm for maybe more than a few minutes.
