[color=FE93EC]"Round 'em up...? Yeah... Yeah, that could work! Good thinking,"[/color] Nico excitedly yelled back at her foxy companion. The cat-themed girl pushed away shade that had jumped onto her barrier, then jumped backwards away from the pack. She looked over her shoulder for a moment, up to the kitsune in the trees.

[color=FE93EC]"I'll run them around, just get a cage going to funnel them into!"[/color]

Nico took stock of each shade that still remained standing. It looked to be about seven of them, give or take, but they were scattered. Getting them grouped harder wasn't going to be easy, but Nico didn't have much time to think about that as two of the shades jumped her again. She rolled to the side, catching something flickering blue off in the corner of Nico's eye.

[color=FE93EC][i](Over there!)[/i][/color]

Nico put herself in the middle of each of the shades, provoking them to launch an all-out attack. The girl jumped away again, but kept facing the now-grouped shades to make sure they weren't scattering. [color=FE93EC]"Come on then! You've got me outnumbered,"[/color] she taunted them with a smirk, then turned tail and dashed away from them, towards where Nico had seen the blue flickering. A circle of fire had formed not too far away, only a single gap as the entrance. The girl ran right up to the inner edge of it, turning as if she'd cornered herself while the shades trickled in one by one.

[color=FE93EC]"Got you!"[/color] Nico triumphantly exclaimed as the trap was shut behind the shades, closing the circular arena. Nico put all her strength into her legs and jumped up in the air, over the top of the shades, and turned mid-jump.

A flurry of sparkles and claw slashes tore through the clutter of monsters all at once, Nico being bathed in the blue light of the raging flames around her. A couple of the shades were thrown back into the walls of the custom-made arena, burning them, while the rest were eradicated by Nico's own attack. Once the girl was done battling the shades she managed to just about land on her hands and knees, watching the blackened mist rise up and evaporate around her.

That didn't mean she was in the clear, though. Nico clamored up to her feet and searched for the purple-haired one while the cage of fire slowly fizzled out around her.

[color=FE93EC]"There, happy?"[/color]
