"You seem to have forgotten someone, that will cost you dearly." Someone said from behind the flamethrower soldier before a large fist of ice smashed into the soldier's helmet. Jacque stood above the now concussed soldier with his arm encased in ice and a face contorted into a mask of annoyance. The elemental brought down the ice on the soldier and began to dent his helmet like a tin can, "Have you *smash* any *smash* idea *smash* how annoying *smash* ice manipulation is!?*SMASH*" he hissed, punctuating his words with a hit before crushing the helmet and head beneath it. Much to Jacque's surprise, a jet of steam hissed out from under the armor and assisted in the melting of the ice, leaving the water elemental with a free hand and some extra water for his arsenal. Manō meanwhile had followed Nao and watched as she tried to penetrate the soldier's shield. Thinking quickly, Manō slithered over to the shield and engulfed it with water before exerting pressure on it like Jacque had did to the soldiers earlier. Rather than breaking the shield however, Manō began forcing it to shrink, intending to crush the person inside of it alive.
