The dragon appeared unfazed by everything, dodging attacks and letting loose a bolt of fire that Blackstar had to pull some quick aerial maneuvering to avoid. Luckily she was good at that. Still, she could feel the heat even through her thermal-regulated uniform as she darted out of the dangerzone. Nothing seemed to distract the beast. [i]Except[/i] that wire that had been shot at him and caught hold of his wing -- though, rather than falter and try to get away, the huge creature seemed to try and pull the holder of said wire up, over the wall the witch-girl had made. If it managed that, the wired woman would be in direct danger. Wait, there was someone Blackstar hadn't clocked before, calling out orders in an almost monotone fashion, like she did this sort of thing ever day. The rebellious streak in her resented someone just stepping in and assuming command without discussion, but before she had much time to consider it she saw the flashy guy shoot a ball of light up into the sky. Something told her she'd better look away before she was blinded, and she did so just in time. If she'd been looking, her retinas definitely would've been feeling that burn. Rolling through the air and coming back up behind the dragon, she manifested the dark energy blades she'd dismissed a moment ago. All she needed was for the monster to be distracted by that light, just for a second -- there. Blackstar dove down, cutting dangerously close to the dragon's head to score her cosmic blades along the side of its skull. It was a risky maneuver, but she was quick. She didn't know how the dark energy would respond to the scales, but she knew it wasn't a killing blow -- just something to sting and hopefully keep the monster distracted from Wireframe and everyone else on the ground.
