User blog:Baluar/Arc 4 chapter 9

I run to grab Katy, avoiding the monster's breath getting in my way. We move in to attack the monster. Rather than taking turns to attack, we agree (tacitly) that the best strategy is to attack both at the same at parts of the monster of more or less equal value, so we trick it into being unable to decide what target is best, and when he picks one of us, then the other moves on to attack targets of more importance, therefore getting the attention. Rinse and repeat.

It all begins with us attacking its arms. Nia goes for the left one, and I go for the right one. While we hack away, the monster decides I make for a better target, and so I avoid a huge hand striking me while Nia moves in to attack its chest. While the monster focuses on her, I move in to the Hannibal's back and strike to get all of Katy inside of him.

-[Ooh. It's hot here, I like it.]

Totally ignoring her comment, I jump off to avoid the incoming firestorm, and Nia begins to throw bullets aimed at its head, so when the storm comes off she has its attention. In the meantime, I begin to attack its right leg, just to cause some damage, and when the time demands it, I jump on top of the beast - again - and begin to shoot bullets to its neck... that is, until Katy's thrown away near where Nia is. I jump down, and watch her dual wielding both Arcs and attacking the beast's head, seemingly breaking its jaw off. Then, she tosses me my God Arc, and we begin a full head on assault to the beast's head (no pun intended). The monster doesn't know how to react, until it explodes.

The moment things got harsh, the monster punched the floor and began to roar, knocking both Nia and me off our feet and emitting a dense fog. When said fog goes away, the monster has become blue-ish, with random, black flames appearing around it randomly. What is this thing?

Well, I guess beating it won't hurt.

-Ready? - I ask.

-As ready as I'll ever be. - She answers.

-[Ready! Oh, I hope this gets bloody!]
