(I think what she meant was a type of combustion Dust and of course, what we know is that powdered Dust can combust. Adding a little bit of energy (raising the temperature) will certainly set it off.)

The shot of a bullet rang through the night. It was almost as loud as the blood curdling scream that had happened prior.

The fight had stopped its course for now. Obviously the sound of a fire arm startled the two duelers dead.

Observing Liadan, no visible damage could be identified save for the gash inflicted onto her clothes from Memories. Memories also appeared to have not taken any damage.

Suddenly, a sharp crack was heard coming from Memories’ mask. Sure enough, a thin crack formed from the top left side of the mask to the center. The bullet from Kouri’s weapon had nicked it just barely.

Despite her close encounter with a bullet, Memories still appeared unshaken. With her years of experience and close encounters, her nerves were beyond steel.

The bullet she sustained indicated to her that there was another and she began to scan the area until she finally came across the same frail girl that had accompanied the blonde at the bar.

Two opponents would be hard to deal with, even with the amount of skill she has over the two of them individually. This only results in one solution, Memories new that. She would have to eliminate one of them quickly to tip the odds.

She studied the two, the black hair girl who shot at her appeared to be the same height as the blonde. The former seemed weaker than the latter in terms of body strength but wielded an odd rifle broadsword hybrid. The groove in the middle also suggested that it could be split into two other weapons. She also noted that the weapon was in no way in contact with the girl but appeared to float beside her.

However, she was not surprised. In small instances, thin strands of strings could be seen near the weapon by moonlight, obviously puppetry, it was something she has seen multiple in multiple variations in her line of work and this was by no means the first. If she were to go for this girl, all she needed to do was cut the strings to render her useless.

Reflecting on the blonde, she had seen the girl’s weapon in both forms. The gun form that shot elemental Dust rounds and the bō staff form. Memories herself was familiar with the fighting style of bōjutsu, thus she knew the weakness. It lies in the concept of the bō being only an extension of one’s body. The girl was physically weak, she knew that, and her bō strikes would reflect that as well. She also knew of the trap she was obviously put in after the blonde created a protective wall of ice between them. Most likely something in the first shot behind her that would explode due to some trigger.

With that in mind, and the observations made. Memories made her choice.

Without any delay, she retrieved a dagger from her belt and shot it right at the wall of ice. The dagger flew straight and true and embedded itself halfway into the ice. Ice can only be so stronger if there was no weak point. Almost immediately, she followed her dagger, shortening her distance between them. She jumped right as she approached the wall and accurately kicked the embedded dagger with both of her legs before landing perfectly back onto the ground. Instantly, the ice surface formed an intricate web of cracks. On signal, the wall shattered into numerous sparkling pieces of ice and rained down like broken glass around her, creating an impressive scene. Once again, the blonde was her target. She knew of her lack of strength and endurance. She needed to be eliminated first.

(Your fight Star, please use Alice in any way you see fit, just remember to read her fighting styles. I have described each of their strengths and weaknesses. Also, try not to kill her, or remove her mask…yet.)

Ps. Have fun!

''Pps. Leave something for Kimi to contribute to, perhaps a tag team later on. Preferably. Don't be greedy.''
