But that’s not to say it would be easy, far from it.” You watch as Izzy holds up a crystal, and in a flash calls forth her mech. “Neither are any less a challenge than the other, but Peppa and I know basically all the tricks we’d try to pull against one another. And while that leaves us fairly even, I also know she’ll have some power waiting in the reserves, and she’ll wait for just the right moment to throttle it out. Izzy is a tricky fighter, she knows how I fight, and like I said, she beat me once before. But now I’ve got personal experience with her tricks. I might be able to take her down before it comes to that. Still a challenge, but it’s not quite as even a fight as it’d be against Peppa.”
“Interesting assessment.” Yazai says with a smile. “If she can get everything out, though?”
“Then it’s a matter of lasting long enough. Izzy’ll run out of steam eventually, Peppa? She’ll find some way to keep going.”
https://youtu.be/ovD-0aZSFxINow it’s Izzy’s turn to go on the offensive… and with both her mech and the Hakkero, she actually is able to gain the upper hand. Peppa tries to go for the joints, initially at range, then getting up close to try and use the mech’s size against it. That doesn’t go anywhere near as well as she planned. While the ranged attacks do leave some damage, the moment Peppa gets in close, Izzy lets out a barrier infused with Magic… and has it switch several times over. First Lightning, then Shadow, and finally finally Wind. Peppa’s first stunned, then slowed, and finally knocked away. Izzy has her mech next call forth the Blazing Sword, Peppa having to use Instant Transmission to even dodge it. Which proves to be even more difficult for her, as next comes Izzy’s Spirit Bits, all of them surrounding Peppa and blasting down at her to keep her in place.
“THIS IS IT, PEPPA! WATASUNAMI!” Water and Wind Magic surrounds Izzy as she calls forth a massive, mighty dragon that surges towards your sister. And just like when it hit you, it’s an overwhelming attack. Peppa’s launched high into the air, then slammed back down, with Izzy ready to push her right out of the ring with her water dragon.
But then it fades. Peppa’s left right outside of combat, panting and definitely heavily damaged. But not out yet. It’s at first confusing, but then you notice. Keli’s managed to recover, and not only that… she’s taken advantage of the damage Peppa did earlier.
Nabbing the Hakkero from Izzy. And doing something… admittedly VERY risky.
