She gritted her teeth in pain, the muscles in her arms taught as the chains pulled.<br/><br/>Alissia didn't waste any time and fired off another bolt. It struck Dusek in the chest, but the force of the bolt was mostly deflected by his chain shirt. The bolt struck him hard enough to draw blood, but it was little more than a scratch.<br/><br/>The shot didn't stop Dusek as the gathering energy flickered around him in a globe. The air around him crackled, making Red's sweaty skin glow blue from the radiance. Beyond this, though, the energy field seemed to have no purpose.
