The snake dodged her attack, but she accomplished what she set out to do. She drawn it's attention. "Eyes. Mouth. In between scales if you are close. Maybe the belly, but that one is guesswork." Schwarz identified the Taijitu's weaknesses. Her mind raced over her options. charging the monster head on was a bad idea, so was trying to get past them and risk being surrounded and cut off. Of course that wouldn't be of any problem to Coral when she could just turn invisible, provided they couldn't find her by smell.

"How often can you do your vanishing act? If I draw it's attention, can you flank around out of it's view and do some damage?" she asked, wishing they had the time to get better accommodated with each other's fighting style. Switching Swansong to sword mode, she shoved the queen piece to Coral's hand: "The mission is to retrieve the relic. If push comes to shove, get it out of here." she said, giving Coral a sideways glance, "For some reason I don't think you'd have trouble with leaving me behind." she grinned as she flared her semblance up.

"Go!" She pointed her sword at the giant snake, aiming for where it touched the ground so it'd be harder for it to dodge. Unlike the dragonbreath, she practiced this attack often and didn't require any focus aid to use it. Stabbing forward several times, with each thrust a lance of the white fire surrounding her weapon shot forward towards the Grimm. The first two missed, but then she adjusted her fire and she scored a hit, grazing the Taijitu's side and melting away some of the scales. [i]That's your weakspot, please go for it![/i] she thought and willed her form forward towards the snake.
