"Not a chance!" taunts Kanade, swept up in the speed and the adrenaline of the moment -- The way Kanade is acting right now is almost enough to inspire awe, as the girl has a grin on her face to accompany her taunt as she moves like a falcon, naturally and quickly, off like a bolt the moment the first word leaves her lips. She slides forwards a bit, practically twirling with the freedom of her movement. Then, with a flourish of her hand and a quick crushing of the fragment, that appears, Kanade summons Lenore to deal out a blast of fire to one of the more familiar shadows, the striped ball halfway to incinerated by the blast.
Kanade deals a solid 48 damage as she slams Lying Hablerie 2's weakpoint, staggering it!As slick and quick as Kanade had been, the toughest of the three shadows, rocked by the previous blow or not, was only an inch behind. Kanade turns her head from her successful attack just in time to watch the pink ball race to within five yards of her. It twists, reeling up to deal her a mighty blow, its long and bizarrely powerful tongue twisting around at high speed right towards her head. Kanade takes a hurried jump backwards, but it doesn't quite look like it's going to be enough! For just a moment, Kanade cringes and closes her eyes, awaiting the impact... and feels just the light flecking of moisture and a light gust of displaced air sending her hair fluttering as the tongue continues past the front of her face. Kanade has dodged by no more than a couple of millimeters.
The Slipping Hablerie misses Kanade!"I-I'll handle this!" Aoi soon makes good on that statement, as she runs right up to where Kanade is with little hesitation, summoning Faust as she moves to attack the thing that had just swung at her friend. The cloaked figure extends the hand not holding its tome, and grabs onto the creature's absurdly oversized tongue. The Persona has some trouble gaining traction thanks to the fact that it IS grabbing a tongue, but it nonetheless gets a grip and the ball is left to shake briefly before all of a sudden a Bufu is launched down its throat. The hit is wildly effective -- as tough as this thing seems to be, it nonetheless is sent rolling out of Faust's grip and straight to the ground, where its gaping mouth faces upwards, the shadow stunned.
Aoi deals 32 damage and downs the Slipping Hablerie!Next, the boy Aoi had addressed just before making her move took his opportunity, striking the same opponent that Kanade had just knocked off-balance seconds earlier; the bolt of Zio that promptly connects from Frankenstein to the hostile sphere does its job more than admirably despite Mijimeki's lack of general magical aptitude. Electricity courses through the already well-struck monster, and with its freakish tongue straightening out and twitching almost comically, it proceeds to bounce against the ground and roll mouth upwards, just as stunned as the enemy his childhood friend had just connected with.
Mijimeki deals 26 damage and downs Lying Hablerie 2!The one floating ball still floating makes its move, but what it does is a completely new behavior; instead of rearing back to strike any of the three Persona-users, it sends itself moving up to the pink ball, that dangerous tongue is... used for a long lick up the side of the pink orb-creature. It's, frankly, completely disgusting to watch. But more important than how disgusting it is is the effect this new behavior has, as the white enemy has just now used Dia on the downed, pink one. It's hard, given its physiology and how it's on the ground, to tell how healed the pink one is, but it does somehow seem to be livelier after receiving the healing.
Lying Hablerie 1 heals the Slipping Hablerie for 65 health!The other zebra-color being is on the ground, having been slammed in quick succession by Mijimeki and Kanade. Needless to say, as it rolls there on the ground, it won't be making a terrible threat any time soon.
