Mami's Perspective Part 4
What just happened? Think Mami think. I was about to shoot this magical girl but then all of a sudden another girl with spheres came and crushed the ground, a small pebble flew towards bullet's trajectory from that impact and blocked the bullet... No matter how you think about it such precision is impossible to exist. She used least amount of magic possible to demonstrate how strong she is. Just thinking about it is making me shiver in fear, but I can't show them that.
And now her comrade, the girl I was fighting until now, is ready to join her, putting me in a two versus one situation. I have been using my magic excessively and I can't afford prolonging this fight or my soul gem will turn pitch black. I don't think I can defeat them, what should I do? Retreat?
But what did girl with spheres said? " I warned you Kirika, you were supposed to make a hostage situation first. " Does this mean they were expecting me to come here? Was this all an ambush set for me?
The girl I first fought is called Kirika then. And she was supposed to take hostages?
As I was thinking Kirika jumped on me to attack. I know that I can't dodge this. I turned to the right, showing my left arm to her.
She attacked. She cut my arm pretty deep... But I don't have time to cry in pain. I turned to the right because I was beginning to spin. I maintained my momentum and gave her a spinning kick, something she didn't expect. Enchanced by magic, this sent her flying which allowed me to use the pistol on my right hand, that I have created during all this.
I shot at her right foot, as you may have expected bullet was infused with my ribbon magic. This will hold her off for a while.
I have turned to face bigger threat, the other girl that has shown tremendous precision. What I have seen wasn't something I have expected. How low can they get?
She was holding the boy that warned me before with her left hand. Is this what she talked about? " Hostage situation " ?
I am way too angry to think about my left arm and cuts on it.
" You will let him go ! " I called out to new girl
" Or ? " She answered
I created a musket in my hands:
" Or I will shove this musket in you, horizontally. "
We stared at each other. Even if it was for a few seconds, intensity of the moment made it feel like much longer. It was obvious that she wasn't going to step back. Well neither will I!
I aimed at her:
" UNLIMITED BULLET WORKS! TIRO REGALE! " and summoned dozens of muskets, shooting immediately
The glowing and floating spheres around her moved in front of her, and after forming a circle they started to move one by one, as if it was a snake coiling around something. All my bullets were blocked and destroyed on contact. Maybe I would be okay with this in another situation but I can't understand. How can this be done with such ease? The spheres themselves don't cover such a big area. Even if they stood at top of each other the girl in front of me is taller than them also " wider " .
There must be a meaning of this, a solution that I must find.
Again, I chant " Unlimited bullet works" while running around her, to surround her with my summoned rifles. She wouldn't be able to survive through this many of them from different angles now would she? After creating a ring of death for her:
" Fire! " I shout, and let the hell loose.
The spherese coiled around her again at incredible speed blocking everything. I observed her. She wasn't even looking at the bullets and yet she was blocking them off? Wait a minute. If she isn't looking at them how can she block those bullets? She wasn't even looking at the ones coming from the front! It's as if there was no need for her to look at them. Could this be the clue I need?
I didn't have the time to think about. Kirika jumped from behind. I jumped forward to escape but even if it wasn't deep enough to kill me she still wounded me.
This situation is bad. I am injured and I used up most of my magic powers. I am in total disadvantage here and yet I can't retreat. I can't abandon the boy.
I positioned myself so that I can see both of the girls. They are both in front of me, though this Kirika is on my left while the other one is on my right. Even if I can see both of them they can simply put me under a pincer attack.
