Kyle drew his arm back again before throwing his right arm forward, with it the spear. The jagged edge of the spear struck the maneater squarely between the head and stalk, separating the head from the rest of the body.Â<br/><br/>Kyle stepped back, giving himself a window of time to react to the next attack. All he had managed to do was to grab the spear from both ends and parry the savage bite. "Kiriei! Switch!" He backpedalled, the momentum carrying him over a loose patch of stone and causing him to land on his rear.Â<br/><br/>(Terminology:<br/>Switch: A common method used by HGO parties to deal with threats. A defends, blocking an attack before retreating. B steps in to deal a blow while the target creature attempts to regain its balance or muster another attack.)
