"Alicia!" Luis shouted amidst the chaos.
"I know!" Alicia answered sharply.
She launched herself skyward in a single bound, her blade flashing as she spun through the writhing vines. With precision and speed, she sliced through each binding tendril, catching the freed students and pushing them toward safer ground before darting back to cut the next.
Before the vines could regroup, Luis directed. "Seraphina, the vines!"
"Leave it to me!" Seraphina didn't need further explanation and immediately knew what she had to do.
She raised her hands in the air and made some motions to manipulate the remaining plants and weeds in the area. Before Morthys' vines could sneak up on more students, her plant wipes emerged from the ground and countered them.
Alicia and Seraphina worked in symmetry to release the students caught by Morthys and to prevent any from getting caught again.
*ROAR! *
Upon seeing this, Morthys was enraged, and his attacks became even more deadly.
