-Zavien-
"Throw it?! Like a frisbee?!" Zavien had no idea how to do that, and as the serpent seemed to turn its attentions back to him, the Dragoon didn't really have time to figure it out. Koa's attack looked incredible, if Zavien could figure out how striking the air helped them. It seemed to do something as he watched the serpent's head erupt in sparks of electricity and a large gash between its beady purple eyes. However, it only served to frustrate it further as those eyes trained onto Zavien.
Chuckling nervously, he dodged a desperate lunge attack that sprayed venom across his face while also taking the creature closer to the edge of their outcrop. Zavien hopped onto a large rock in one large leap, looking down at the sad scene. The shadow serpent had black blood oozing from both ends. Its tail dragged behind it, smearing across the dirt. Its movements were becoming erratic as the blood from its head wound began to drip over its eyes. A kernel of pity settled in his chest. Yet, as he saw Koa leap onto the creature, he knew that he couldn't delay.
Zavien gripped the disk tightly in his hands and gave a war cry as he jumped from the rock, preparing to sever the head of the creature. As his hand came down in a merciful attack, the serpent vanished into a black cloud, appearing a foot in front of him. His eyes squeezed tight a few times as he tried to understand what was happening. Then the image of two heads raised before his eyes, neither looking very happy about his attempt on their life. Each head flashed in and out of focus, immediately telling Zavien that something wasn't right. Giving the snarling serpent an embarrassed smile, he rolled just in time to avoid their snapping jaw(s?). "Hey Koa? Are there two?" He already suspected the answer, but he figured it would help to confirm.
