[b]Sable Rhodroth - [color=red]WRETCHED ONE[/color][/b] Sharktopus was quicker than before, so quick in fact that his palm had gripped Sable's face before he could react to it. The impulse to attack was strong but Cynthia had a plan and even though she was a Harpy, she was also a friend now. He would have to trust in her. Even with his face in a hold, he shot the Light Dragon Slayer a thumbs up. He could hear Aiden rampaging beside him. That powered-up form must make him crazy. He had to admit when he delved into his own magic, when he entered that state, he felt as if he was running on instincts instead of brains-- then again, he always felt like that so it wasn't nothing new. He warmed his body up to fight against the sheer cold pouring off of Aiden. Gripping the demon's arm, he conjured flames into his palms and released the energy pent up inside of them. Explosions ripped out dozens of times within a few seconds. He smiled beneath the arm gripping his face. "This all ya got, fishbitch? better try harder or you'll lose your arm!" he mocked, hoping to keep the attention on a rampaging Aiden and himself.
