(OOC: Then why.... Oh whatever, not like it matters -_- .... Basically, Mr. Hydra was angry and because Mr. Hydra couldn't see Mr. Guy-who-killed-two-of-its-heads, he went after Mr. Guy-with-a-big-gun-and-charging-at-him-like-a-Kamikaze-pilot 3nodding .

Strength = 7 | Speed = 9 "I'll keep moving. Never stopping until I'm the greatest there is..." 《《《《《《《《 =========== 》》》》》》》》 Drew slowly limped forward, now about a few feet from being under the Hydra where he would make his attack. However, the Hydra once again postponed his plans as he looked to his right to see the Hydra's thick tail coming towards him. Without thinking, Drew let his energy spark into his hands, about to use a skill. But instead, something interesting happened. A burst of fire suddenly shot from the butt of his sword, and pushed him into the sky over the Hydra's tail. Drew looked at his sword, dumbfounded, wondering what just happened. But then, he started to fall back down and, with a thud, he was back on the ground. Somehow, he had managed to dodge that attacK, which really confused him. Pushing those thoughts into the back of his mind, he stood back up and quickly moved forward. Once he was below the Hydra's underbelly, it's weak point, Drew jumped up so he was inches from it's belly and used a Fire Bomb, followed with a slash from his sword before he fell back to the ground.

Yoh shots seems to have had no effect, even thought he was at close range, and fired before the hydra did. But Yoh wasn't ready for the attatck it pulled off but the stream of water that it fired hit yoh head-on and flew off the back of the dragon's back and landed hard on the island under it. Yoh grunted as he hit the ground hard. He felt his left arm snap, and shouted in pain. He slowly turned over and looked at the beach, he saw that his Sinper Rifle had washed up on shore. He crawled over to it and grabed it with his right hand. He slowly checked the parts and mags. He had plenty of ammo left. He put everything back together and aimmed at the soft underside of the beast, he also made sure not to shot at any of his teammates. Yoh fired mutiple shot, until he emptied the clip. He grunted, because the rebound of the gun was causing him to move his arm. Yoh as figured he was in a safe position because, the hydra couldn't move its head under itself. He slowly find another clip and reloaded. Yoh was safe now but he wasn't going to be for long. The Hydra could do a number of things to get to him. He used the rilfe as support himself to get to his feet. Yoh took out a cloth he took from the hospital and wrapped his arm up. He slung the remainder of the cloth over his shoulder, forming a make-shift sling. He picke up his rifle and got to cover.

The hydra's tail didn't whip back and forth just once, but repeatedly. The pain of the missing heads drove it. As lucky as Drew may have been in dodging over the tail with whatever his blade had done, his injuries would very well prevent him from reaching the desired position before the tail would come back again and again and again. Actually, it was very much a miracle he could still move after being shot point-blank with a jet of water that was enough to knock down a four-story building.
The two heads of the hydra that had aimed at Cain snapped in midair and then quickly backed off to a much higher height in order to continue keeping their eyes on the gunslinger.
The pulling back of the head also brought Lilliana's target, one of the heads, far out of her reach just in the nick of time. Actually, they were already at the very edge of her reach beforehand. However, a stream of fire suddenly shot out from the explosion and the targeted head moved out of the way to dodge. The same head shot a jet of water at Lillian (able to knock down a four-story building, as usual) while the other one kept an eye on the surroundings. As a mage and a seer, the novice probably didn't have the speed to dodge nor the strength to remain without injury without some sort of defense and what kind of defense could she have that could completely withstand a blast of water with such strength?
The third head of the hydra, which had been observing the entire battle scene from afar noticed Yoh grab yet another gun. As a whole, the body of the hydra rolled slightly to the side that Yoh was on, replacing the soft underside of the belly that he was aiming at with the tough scaled sides of the body. The powerful rifle damaged the beast, yes, but the injuries were shallow. The shift in position was only a very slight one, the hydra hadn't even rolled over completely, so the other heads were not bothered by it. However, the shift in position reopened and reintroduced to salt water the abdominal wounds it had received early in the fight. Before, the hydra had miraculously been able to ignore it. Now, though, it looked as if it would be somewhat distracted by the pain for quite some time before getting used to it again. Additionally, the rolling movement would probably crush Drew if he had actually managed to get underneath the hydra as he had desired. Too shocked by the pain, the hydra couldn't muster its third head to fire a blast of water at Yoh before he reached cover.
(OOC: Did I... get the timing right? Or is the hydra reacting too quickly to everything?)

(He's down two heads, putting him in a fair amount of pain. I would say he's reacting a tad too quickly. His reaction time hasn't changes the entire fight even though he's lost the heads and taken damage. Shallow wounds are still painful wounds. Especially with the salt water nearby.)

(OOC:
Jacklyn- True, but the two heads were killed with bullet wounds. They weren't chopped off or anything. When you compare the size of a bullet wound to the entire body.... Well, after the heads died, that part of the body just became like the rest of the body. Also, the only wounds in salt water is... none. Seeing how you guys seemed to be walking fairly easily in the water, I'd have to say that the head wounds, both of which were on the upper half of the head, are some distance above the water. Not to mention, nothing's hit the bottom part of the body, which is the only part touching the salt water.
Rahenno- Meaning even more time for the third head of the hydra to spot you and react mrgreen .
Either way, which parts should I change?
I doubt that it would have been all that hard to dodge Jacklyn's attack since she was injured and a fair distance away from the hydra. So getting out of range of the fire bomb's explosion shouldn't be a problem. Besides, the hydra's quick reaction was specifically driven by the pain of Cain's attack. Same goes for the tail.
Is the first blasting water part done too quickly? Because I could easily just edit it so that the hydra dodged the fire stream thanks to its flexible neck and then shoot the blast of water.
As for rolling over onto its sides, that's not done too quickly, is it? Since the third head really hadn't been doing anything and, as Rahenno admitted, Yoh wasn't moving all that quickly. Really, it's just a shift of weight. Although, I guess it wouldn't be able to fire the water blast at the end if we think about the pain....
I'm open to any arguments 3nodding .)

(You did already say yourself there were injuries to the bottom part of the body, unless you're saying the underbelly area isn't touching the water. Also, since it was already facing Cain when I attacked, I would say it would dodge then fire on me. But I would agree that the last water jet wouldn't have been able to happen because of prior events...
Edit: i just remembered. You have to contend with the dead weight of two dead heads and necks. That's why you would slow down the most, even if pain wasn't a factor.)

(OOC:
Jacklyn- Erm.... Remind me where the injuries were, please sweatdrop ? Sorry, I have bad memory >_< ....
So we agree on how to edit the first two water jets?
Also, the dead weight isn't going to slow the hydra down much because it hasn't moved much since the first head died. The slight roll was the first time and it's not going to be hampered all that much by the weight of the useless limbs. The weight of the body is heavier than the weight of the dead limbs and it's not like the hydra's doing a full 360.
Rahenno- I know, I know. Just pointing out something sweatdrop . Well, since the last head died, most of its momentum came from emotions. Before that, there really hadn't been all that much damage to the hydra other than the dead head. At least, nothing was broken and there were no severe gashes. Since the first head died, I haven't moved the hydras body at all. The slight roll in the last post was the first time... I think. The full roll and 360 degree spin happened before the first head was killed, right?
Wait....
Jacklyn (again)- By damage to the underbelly, were you talking about your ice shards sweatdrop ?)

(I can agree to the amendment of the first two jets. And the wounds on the underbelly came from Cain and I believe Yoh firing on the hydra. I'll go back and PM you the links to each post if you need them. As for the dead weight, unless you specified it was two edge heads, the others could get tangled in the dead necks....)

(OOC: But it's not like the heads were moving and both of them are kind of out of the way: ones on the ground and another is either on the ground or on the back. They're not in the way or anything, regardless of whether or not they're edge hands, and it's not like the other heads are going through the trouble of looping under them....
From what I remember, Yoh hasn't fired on the hydra's belly since the last post and Cain's shots all missed the belly.... Mind giving me the links, please sweatdrop ?)

(OOC: The hydra defended against that with a semi-roll, which is more of a shift of weight rather than a roll, so you shot at its armored side/back instead of its unarmored underbelly. I figured that Yoh would take some time to get to the guns so by the time he shot, the third head would have seen him clearly and would have an idea of what he was going to do, allowing it to react accordingly. I also figured that Yoh's lack of speed would probably make it one of the last attacks to hit.
Ermm.... Was I wrong sweatdrop ?)
