At Volvagia's first attacks, Rawk was merely content with keeping himself and his Pawns out of danger. For a few minutes, he just observed Volvagia. If either of his allies were to question him or look at him as if to ask what he were doing, they'd hear this in their heads. <_I'm observing her. Trying to find out her patterns. This fight won't be a cakewalk, but if we can find out what all she's capable of, we should be able to manipulate her into a corner._> After a few minutes, Rawk decided to push the dragon a little. The two Knights rushed at Volvagia from either side in a classic pincer movement. Rawk, meanwhile, threw one of his cyber swords out, planning on striking the beast in the eye.

Meanwhile, Link was dodging the flames, doing his best to not get hit. Sure, he was immune to the ill-effects of heat, but fire still burned. Like Rawk, Link was trying to figure out a way to defeat Volvagia without the use of the Megaton Hammer, which may not have helped in this amped-up version of the fight. As Link saw Rawk making his move, he instinctively ducked low to the ground, hiding as much of himself behind his trusty Hylian Shield as he could.
