Lumi watched the way Marluxia held the weapon. He took a step back as he surged forward, but was still forced to duck as he treated him to a far-too-close-for-comfort demonstration of a strike.
That was fast. Faster than he had expected, given the unwieldy nature of the weapon's shape and the apparent weight. The cutting arc was wide, but the shape of the scythe-blade limited the risk zone somewhat. That did little to disguise the fact that it was clearly a dangerous weapon that would prove extremely difficult to parry.
To push him, Lumi knew that he would have to stay close -- reach was meaningless against an opponent too close to use the blade on. Even so, Marluxia's speed was something that he would have to keep in mind.
He took in a breath, slow and calm, and lunged at him while the momentum of Marluxia's swing took it too far off to the side to be an immediate threat.
