Vael shot into the air, wings slicing through the stale dungeon air like blades.
Stromeon snarled beside Kai, his paws grinding against the cracked ground, sparks twitching and crackling with every pulse.
Kai exhaled.
His stance lowered.
"Let's end this nightmare."
[
In a heartbeat, he vanished.
His figure blurred, then flickered to the side.
The obsidian creature's glowing eyes swept forward, trying to follow, but too slow.
ROOOOAR!
The beast answered with fury.
Its chest expanded, then compressed with a hollow, vibrating snarl.
The creature moved, not fast, but deliberate.
Scree!
From above, Vael screeched.
[
Wind spiraled behind him as he dove like a comet, aiming for the beast's exposed back.
BOOM!
Dust and loose stone flew. Vael twisted away mid-air, but—
SWWIIING!
The creature's tail snapped sideways, unnaturally fast.
