Zhao waded through the rising tide of kobolds, but no matter how many she slashed to pieces it felt like she was fighting the sea. She was so engrossed in hacking away at the relentless beasts, she almost didn't hear Ren announce his plans.

There was that voice again, distracting her. She had no idea what it was, but there was no time to think about it. Her eyes flared with mana as she cast a glance in Ren's direction, and watched as his arrow nailed the Kobold Lord's foot to the ground. It seemed to move in slow motion as her eyes traced its path through the air. 

Meanwhile, the kobolds around her didn't miss the opening. They had given up trying to wound her, and instead clung to her legs and feet in a desperate attempt to slow her down. Realizing she had an opportunity to take on the monster directly, she tried jumping out of their grasp. The moment she kicked off the ground, she soared several meters into air and let out a panicked yelp. Her heart hammered in her chest as the ground fell away. She may have trained relentlessly to overcome her fear of battle, but she was still terrified of heights. She sailed over the kobold lord missing her mark, and the ground swelled toward her with increasing speed. Another helpless cry escaped her as she fell hard against the ground.

Zhao reminded herself that she was much sturdier than before, and quickly leaped to her feet. At least she hadn't let go of her sword. When she looked back at the kobold lord, she noticed he was completely encased in ice. [color=#cd758f]"One more try..."[/color]

She looked across the battlefield at the other girl ([@ERode]) who had been fighting alongside her. [color=#cd758f]"Aim for its head! We may not get another chance!"[/color] She shouted desperately.

Zhao on the other hand had even more distance to cover than before. She wound herself into a tight stance, power building in her legs. The earth heaved beneath her feet as she kicked off the ground, and flew overhead once more. Twisting mid-air, she pointed her blade downward, aiming to strike its heart even as her own tried to leap out of her chest.
