If the enemy Spines were looking for a response for the towering cryptid, Garrick had none to give as a strong swipe of his tail sent an unfortunate pair over the railing and down to the lower stands. Quickly scanning his surroundings, Garrick found his elf companion already in the thick of another fight, shredding and pulverizing any poor soul that got close to her, even at the expense of her own body being harmed. It was clear that the girl was all-in on offense, with zero regard for personal defense.

If it wasn't for the fact that the girl was decimating her opponents, Garrick would've been more concerned than he was right now.

A sharp pain erupting from the back of his right shoulder caused the lizard man to grunt in discomfort. With a glance, he saw an arrow sticking out from his shoulder, fired from a Spine member standing on a higher level in the stands. Responding in kind, Garrick whipped around and threw his sword, the blade flipping in the air before impaling the Spine archer deep in the chest, causing him to fall over dead. Enemy taken care of, Garrick then reached over his shoulder and, with another grunt of discomfort, pulled the arrow out of his wound, which was already in process of healing.

A flash of lightning drew Garrick's attention back toward the center of the arena, where the Electro intruder was still fighting the Sand King, even with the Geo Archon's intervention. The cryptid's slit hazel eyes narrowed. Something needs to be done about that interloper and soon.

A Spine swordsman attempted to attack the elf from behind, but was thwarted as Garrick came in with a shoulder charge and slammed the would-be ambusher into the wall, the sound of bones breaking audible as the poor man slid to the ground.

[color=00aeef]"There, little one!"[/color], Garrick exclaimed to the elf as he pointed toward the arena's center, at the Electro fighter. [color=00aeef]"That one stands between you and your goal!"[/color]
