does this look okay?

Looks fine to me, but I think having the ninja back in his original position have his sword out for awhile then having a slashing animation on the knight. It's your game, do whatever. :D

My idea is this then the knight has a surprise look than the charecter walks back as the knight turns red. (IIts not really a ninja its just the charecter I chose he doesn't even look like one to me)

here we go i think i like this better.

Oh, I see now. Neat!
