Shana Winters vs. Shuren

Shana Winters vs. Shuren is a battle that takes place in Excelia during the Invasion of Excelia. It is the shortest battle between the Black Knight rebels and the Order.

Prologue
Shana returns to the Fullmoon Fountain where she is confronted by Shuren.

Battle
The very brief battle begins as Shana enters the garden at the centre of the Fountain. Shana is annoyed that she was being watched as she made her way there. Calling out her follower, Shuren appears and explains he is going to kill her since she disrespected him. Shana responds by telling him he's garbage and too weak to pose a challenge to her.

Shuren laughs, calling Shana out for having less brains than brawn, which he points out isn't much to begin with. He then boasts about how he has never missed a shot with his crossbow and how it will only take one shot to kill her. Shuren enters his Pseudo-Affinity and tells Shana to simply stand still as Shana looks on in boredom. He then begins to tell her about his abilities and goes so far as to call her a "stupid bitch."

Shuren is then interrupted in the middle of his speech as, without being given any chance to prepare, Shana steps up to Shuren and delivers a powerful flying kick that sends Shuren crashing into an apple tree. As his back is broken, a single apple from the tree falls in front of Shuren. Shana draws her bow and fires a blind arrow. Shuren opens his mouth to scream as the arrow pierces the still-falling apple and enters his mouth, killing him instantly.

Aftermath
Moments after killing Shuren, Raven arrives and sees Shuren dead. He asks if he was any trouble, but then tells Shana to disregard the question. Just then, the Keep of Forgotten Time begins to crumble due to Ken's battle with Messam. Shana aphenes and begins to leave for the Keep. Raven prevents her and reminds her it's Ken's battle, but Shana insists something is wrong. Raven reluctantly agrees and lets her go. He then returns to the battle, sensing there are still defectors in Excelia.
