My sword was blocking the figure's blade.
I made it in time.

"Hey there kiddo... sorry I'm late. Quite unusual of me, I know."
First, confusion. Then, shock.
Finally, joy.
At last, Red Xatark has made his entrance.
Y/N: Better late than never, Master Red.
He gives you a warm smile, a smile you've missed for ages. However, it quickly turns into a serious look, as he looks back at Akashi and slashes his blade downwards.
Then, in a blink of an eye, he slashes his blade forwards, causing Akashi to cough in pain and forcing her to retreat.
Akashi: Ghk-!? H-How...? What the hell...!?
Looking back up, her frustration soon turned into a chuff.
Akashi: Tch... I should've known...
Red gives her a confused look.
Red: Known what? You know me?
Akashi rubs her face with her arm.
Akashi: It's been a while, The Red Flash. You're not dead after all.
You matched Red's expression and looked towards him.
Y/N: Red... do you know this person?
Red: N-No... not really.
He then faces Akashi and gets into a stance.
Red: Do I know you?
Akashi lets out a low laugh.
Akashi: ... Used to.
And without warning, she dashes towards Red and locks blades with him.
Red: Kh-! F-Fast!
Slashing downwards, Akashi starts striking and slashing, but Red dodges each approach. Akashi slashes low, but Red flips over it and lands back in front of you.
Y/N: C-Careful, Red! She's really strong!
Red: Yeah, can tell. Hup!
Jumping away from another lunge, Red continues to swerve and dodge each slash from Akashi.
And, you marveled at Red's display of speed and skill.
Akashi's slashes were even faster and sharper than before, but Red was dodging them with ease.
Who needs defense when you got agility and evasion?
Eventually, Akashi stops her assault and charges up for one final lunge, but it was once again dodged by Red and he counter-attacks, tripping her up with a leg sweep and an axe kick to send her to the ground.
