But the moment things go sideways or you need some extra oomph, just say the word and I’ll help dish it out.” you declare confidently, your emerald aura surging around you. Chuu Lee bolts forward, the blazing form of Yao coming in hot, literally given how the ocean seems to be steaming underneath her. You get a telepathic message from Chuu Lee, who asks you, ‘Think you can get her to “chill” for a moment?’
With a slight chuckle, you respond with a quick, ‘Absolutely.’ As she narrowly avoids a blazing fist aimed at her face, Chuu Lee hits Yao in the back with a Wind-boosted Geist Magnum. And you have just the thing to follow that up with, as you head down to the water and cast out, “GLACIER SURGE!” at full blast! The frigid stream and sheer power of the attack leaves a trail of ice on top of the ocean water, and with Yao blasted in the back she ends up sent right into the path of your attack! Her whole body ends up encased in ice, stuck on top of the water. You also notice that the pool noodles you slapped on her head are still kinda there; a little melted, but in a way that seems to have kinda melted into her hair, making her look a little ridiculous.
Hah!
…Oh boy the ice is cracking and starting to melt. You back away a bit as you sense Chuu Lee is about to hit her with another powerful attack, calling out, “FALCON KIIIIIIICK!” The moment Yao breaks out of the ice, she gets struck full force by Chuu Lee’s attack, kicked down into the ocean! Hell yeah! …But you can also tell that wasn’t enough to put her down from the count. Chuu Lee is doing some damage, for sure, but Yao’s able to take yet more.
You get more good news as you spot Zelos now backed up by 19 and 16, the latter of which is lacking his other arm but otherwise is in peak condition, Sala keeping her distance and protecting Hado who starts to read through the odd scroll they nabbed in a voice that matches that of the Promethean Chronicler’s (which certainly concerns Sala given how you can hear her using what you assume are fun and creative new swears you’ve never heard before, but not enough to distract her from keeping him safe as shadowy figures march out of the ground around them). 16 and Authadia trade blows in a cross-counter, but it’s one that leaves him open for both Zelos and 19 to call up an entire thunderstorm’s worth of Lightning and blast it down at him! He actually somehow redirects it with his sword, yet 16 smirks and fires his Rocket Punch point blank, sending Authadia right into the redirected attack!
