Eyes snapped tight as a sudden airflow pushed past the Amaura's head, but fear soon opened them again. To his relief, but fueling more disorientation, targets had already shifted. A dance had been engaged between the long-fanged Mawile and Hex, attempting to out-maneuvre the Mawile long enough to focus the moving air. A sound stole attention before he could give it to the other fay, presently being buffeted by water and yelping. The rapidity with which Shannon's situation was dismantled was enough to force a simple realisation through his daze- The Mawile were powerful, but outnumbered, perhaps even recklessly so. Two was easy enough to divide into individuals, and individuals were easy enough to overpower. [i]The fanged one's disruptive. Goodnight for you first, then.[/i] Sails pulsed back into red, glowing fiercely as Shannon overloaded them with energy. "Hex, make way!" A clear but abrupt warning; Shannon didn't wait before a swirl of light flowed from his headgear. The irregular aurora broke over its target like a wave, and there was a crackle of electricity. A spasm from the Mawile's jaws, but most of its body was stunned. It regained its footing with twitchy, disconnected movements. [i]There's your upper hand, Hex Flutter. Gust to your heart's content.[/i] Perhaps without due wisdom, Shannon turned away from the somewhat-paralyzed fairy to their other opponent. With a roll in his head, the sharp throb of the magical gas subsiding into aches and dull nausea, he considered approaching the Mawile and headbutting it while it was down, but not for long. There was a silver glint to their fangs which Shannon was growing steadily more conscious of, and in his ignorance of the species, he wasn't eager to engage one at close range. Amaura's internal cells rely mostly on ice for structure, and their porous fossil bones are frozen solid for strength, at the cost of brittleness. Their bodies are shattered by iron, not cut by it. Unmoving, Shannon inhaled softly and deeply, replenishing his snow should either Mawile need further beating from distance instead.
