Suddenly, a blur of silver tore past her so quickly she couldn't even see it clearly, slamming into the Negari and striking cleanly across its chest and underbelly with a single stroke. The purple-haired magical girl gaped as black ooze began spewing out of the breach, and the new arrival shouted to them something about how that was its weak spot. Well, then, that information was all she needed. She'd just close in and then- ...Oh, right. The last time she'd tried a directional leap, she'd nearly crashed into a building a whole block away. Using that trick would be the only way to close the distance fast enough to avoid being crushed under its many stamping legs, but if she did that, she'd probably just slam into its chest as a human projectile. Even with her increased durability, she wasn't sure she'd survive that, and even if she did, she still didn't want to end up embedded head-first in an Negari's gut. Still, some of the other girls might be able to... Yes! Come to think of it, Midori had displayed some kind of high-energy projectile move. Then, if they could just give her the time to set that up again... [color=#A641C8]"Umm, Pink-senpai, please keep holding it in place! I'm going to try to take out more of its legs!"[/color] Shouting this to the ribbon-wielding girl as she ran past her, Aegis reached out her hand, placing it against a particularly large bit of concrete uprooted and sent flying when the beast had first shambled onto the scene. A faint glow of violet shone for just a moment, and a nearly invisible symbol of a hand inscribed itself onto the debris. Then, drawing back her right leg, she brought it forward like a football player going for a field goal, releasing a "Push" right as she did so. The tremendous force sent the concrete shard flying straight towards the Negari, slamming into the side of its head. The creature reeled, black ooze trickling from where a couple of its entirely-too-many eyes had just been. However, in the same movement, a second sigil had appeared on the side of the stone. She drew back her left hand. Even if she couldn't push herself forward with a jump, maybe if she just... A burst of force erupted from her palm, and a backlash slammed into her, picking her up bodily and sending her flying towards the Negari, but a bit slower than she had before. This gave her time to extend her left leg, a "pull" rune forming that caught hold of the beast's already crippled leg from her earlier attack and ripped it completely free of its socket. Landing on this in mid air, Aegis jumped backward on instinct as the enraged Negari flailed its restrained pincer in her direction, but wasn't quite able to reach her. Flipping head-over-heels, she only barely managed to right herself and land standing up, now in a freshly opened gap between two of the Negari's legs. Reaching around with her right hand, she tapped the inside of one, then delivered a rather unimpressive spinning kick to the other which didn't seem to do anything. Seemingly satisfied with her attack, however, Aegis hopped back, releasing a barely-charged push to send her flying away just as the beast stomped, bringing down its foot where she'd just been standing. [color=#A641C8]"Link established! Chains, activate! One, two!"[/color] The phantasmal spectre of a chain formed between the rock embedded in the side of the Negari's head and the back of its leg, and in an instant, the giant shard of rubble tore out from where it had embedded itself, shooting downwards and slamming into the back of the creature's joint. The limb caved outward, breaking in half as a second chain formed, dragging the stone clear through the beast's leg and slamming it into the next in line, which broke apart in the same fashion. The Negari howled, and staggered, barely able to keep from falling to the ground with more than half of the legs on the left side of its body torn out. Ugh... just looking at what she'd done made her feel sick, but she had bigger things to worry about right now! If there was ever a chance to end this, it would be now! [color=#A641C8]"Now, senpai! Pull it to the other side so that it falls!"[/color] She searched the area, and found her eyes settling upon the lightning-wielding girl from before. [color=#A641C8]"Midori-san! Now's your chance! Hit that weak point on its chest!"[/color] In the frenzy of battle, Aegis Violet had almost forgotten to be scared. And so it was that she didn't even realize that, just like that, when her mind started working, she'd found the perfect way to give the others a shot at victory, in a battle she'd first assumed was hopeless for her. (If you wanna make it go all according to plan, feel free, or, if you want the attack to fail miserably, that's fine by me too. Just remember there may or may not be a second Negari waiting to screw us over.~) [@Raineh Daze][@ChickenTeriyaki][@VitaVitaAR][@Duoya][@shagranoz]
