The rats continued swarming around Reynault and Pele, unrelenting in their quest for food. However, Pele had wisened up to their tactics and managed to prevent any more rats from biting her, while the rats that swarmed Reynault still can't find a way to get past his armor and to his flesh! They might as well be using their gums to bite him to death. After Pele threw off a rat from her armor, she muttered to herself "The staff isn't working! Damn...didn't want to use this so soon...!" She then closed her eyes and focused. The air around her and Reynault seemed to be getting hotter and much more humid. Three orbs of fire appeared, one above Pele's head, and two in each hand. She opened her eyes to show nothing but bright white light. As this power built up, she inhaled a large breath of air. She then exhaled, like she was a dragon breathing fire onto its enemies, and the fire orb above her head fired a reddish orange flame at a swarm of rats. Pele, apparently, wasn't kidding around when she said that she was part of the Fire Ashari. That one blast took out more than half of the first swarm that had been bothering her. She finished off what was left of that swarm with the ray in her left hand, which was much weaker than the first blast, and she threw the last ray at the second swarm that was bothering her.
