A Reprisal Anew part 2 (Me and Shades)

Shantotto continued bouncing about, maneuvering around Barbara's attacks even as the viking chica started slamming the ground and moving to keep pace with the Tarutaru. Squigly was having a hard time deciding if this girl had any actual combat experience or, if she did, if said training actually meant anything against such a tiny AND fast moving target. She swung her axe and Shantotto backflipped over it, landing on Barbara's head then hopping over it. "H-HEY!! Get back here!!"

"If you think that's what I'm doing then you are mistaken~
You must work harder if it's my interest you seek to awaken! Hohohohohoho!!!"

The Tarutaru snapped her fingers, causing a water spell to blast around Barbara, forcing her to jump up high and hover away quickly. Lightning spells followed soon after, forcing Barbara to run as fast as she could away, reclaiming her helmet during which. "YIIIIIKE!!!!"

Squigly yelped as the lightning crackled around them, jumping back as Leviathan squeezed her; step one.

Step two was building power. She stepped into Dragon's Tail, whirling Leviathan's tail around... then canceled the stance, switching to Dragon's Flame; purple flames built up in the Parasite's mouth... and then Squigly returned to normal.

Step three was going to be the hard part. Building up enough energy to use the attack without getting taken out.

Taking a moment to steady herself, Squigly jumped upward, launching down towards Shantotto, Leviathan's tail turning into a shovel. "Grave!"

The shovel-tail stuck into the ground, and Squigly flipped backwards, attempting to launch the Tarutaru skyward. "Digger!"
