Fighting a Rank 9 Beast Part 2

"Spread out! Don't get hit by it!" Mira's voice came out a harsh bark, rebounding off the mountainous terrain as she stood up, dusting herself off. She landed quite far away but was rushing back toward her comrades. 

Not getting there fast enough, a pair of Paragon Wings manifested above Mira's back, and she shot forward like a missile.

The others heard her voice and listened, immediately separating from one another. Although that would put them at a disadvantage individually, they were sure Mira had a plan.

"What's the plan?" Asami's voice was low, her eyes on the beast as it thrashed its tail, sending shards of rocks hurtling toward them.

Her fans fluttered, casting shadows to obstruct the incoming projectiles, her dark Qi holding them at bay. But it was evident she wouldn't be able to hold for long. The beast's power was too overwhelming.
