Ionia was thrilled when the Ranger gave an attack of sword strokes. She was happy to see his attack attempts. It was first-hand information for future reference. It also proved just how useful her training and gaining of weapons had been. If she hadn't had her staff and armor, she likely would've been knocked out or seriously injured by the attacks. With a lack of precision, only a few of the attacks hit her with minor damage. She'd be sore and have a bruise or two - nothing she couldn't handle.
"Looks like the Rangers here can't handle a witch or a bitch. Are you going to keep playing with me or are you going to go save your pathetic team?" She twisted her staff and let off several energy blasts aimed at the Ranger's neck. She just wanted to faze him for a few seconds to allow her to teleport to the rooftop. She had found out enough basic information. There was also a rather strategic move she could make from the rooftop that she couldn't do from the streets; she could take a couple blaster shots from behind. It had taken out one Ranger. Watching the rest of the battle and seeing what further damage she could do was rather appealing now that she had made a mark.
