Like Akoni, Mary threw herself at the Abyssal with wild abandon, intent to harm it from up close. Akoni's attack hit first, though he seemed a bit farther away than before. The surface of the monster's flesh began to transform. Though Mary's thoughts were beginning to get clouded, she realized the beast was capable of altering itself to match it's opponent. Unfortunately, Mary was already on her way, closing the gap with the beast. As she sailed towards it, killer intent in her eyes, the thing began to sprout hellish spikes, the obvious goal to gore Mary on them. Mary, having no way to dodge them, simply attempted to block as best she could, putting her arms in front of her torso and face. Luckily, a summoned gate suddenly appeared in between her and the spikes for a split second, removing three of them from play. Mary then switched her plan of attack, trying to swipe the spikes out of the air. She managed to knock away one, but another lodged itself into her left shoulder. A loud roar erupted from her and echoed throughout the room as she tore it from herself, a decent amount of damage being obvious. If anything were near her, it would've been blown back by her exclamation. Still, she continued moving forward, now towards where the blades had sprouted from on the creature. Sure that it would quickly grow the spikes back, Mary again threw herself upwards with a small explosion, this time towards a less aggressive target: the ceiling. Once there, she hung upon it with her sharp claws, surveying the situation for a second. Souta was now near a different part of the thing, hanging onto and exposed strip of flesh. One could almost see a grin on the beast that was Mary as she flipped towards the area of attack, light splotches of magma going every which way. This time she was going to tear it's insides out!
