The Scorchbeak's wings glowed brighter, almost white from the heat. Fire built in its beak—too bright to look at.
Sophia's eyes widened.
"That attack will wipe us out if we take it head-on!"
Caria tightened her grip on her axe.
"Then we won't let it fire!"
Lyra nodded.
"We hit it before it finishes charging."
Rhys pointed forward.
"Right. We rush it together!"
Aqua swallowed hard but stepped up beside them.
"O-Okay… I'll help from the back!"
Puddle floated higher, glowing with all three of her elements at once.
"Puddle help everyone!"
The Scorchbeak screeched loudly. A huge fireball formed at the center of its beak, ready to fire.
Rhys shouted,
"Move!"
The whole team sprinted forward.
Aria fired sharp wind blades to distract it. The monster shook its head but kept charging the attack.
Sophia cast a barrier to block some of the heat so the front line could get close.
Lyra dashed in first.
She jumped and slashed across its chest.
