I cursed under my breath as the Shadow mentioned that nothing I was saying was getting through to her. My body was growing weaker and as the Shadow taunted at Pyxis, saying that I was going to die, attempting to elicit a reaction out of the ASW... I didn't know what to do. I really wasn't confident about my chances of making it out alive. Depending on my next move, and the next attack being launched at me would most likely take me down as well. I looked at Pyxis despite my own body trembling, even through the resoluteness of my will, even that could only take me so far. Eventually, I saw Pyxis twitch as if reacting to the taunt. The Shadow launched another attack, spewing a rain of pure energy from the magic box, seemingly said to be the source of all negativity.
I eyed Pyxis as the both of us got splattered by the rain, though it was weaker in intensity than the Shadow's previous attacks, it looked to directly affect Pyxis. I winced as I caught my left arm, which was starting to give out. I shook as I kneeled down on the ground, glaring at the Shadow. The Shadow called out for Elpis, gathering light in its hands, and shot another beam at me. However, my eyes widened as I saw Pyxis leap forward and threw herself in the way of the beam of light instead.
"Pyxis...! No!"
Pyxis had asked me if I was okay. I was in no condition to try it again, but the actions of the Shadow infuriated me. And it seemed Pyxis had finally opened her eyes. She should fight for what she believes was right.
"Pyxis... You didn't have to... I... I might have... I don't want to lose you either, Pyxis!"
I gasped as I forced myself to stand up. A wound on my head opened up as blood trickled down my forehead. I don't know how that got there. Growling, I glared at the Shadow, and called out Vasuki to appear. She threw a beam of light at us, I can do the same. I can throw several. I willed Vasuki and myself to charge energy balls of light again in our hands. The balls were much bigger than usual, and Pyxis could probably see the blood trickle down my head as I exerted most of my remaining energy to shoot another exorcising Haja no Ken at the Shadow.
