(MC POV)
The twins were standing side by side, both of them ready to either charge in or hold their ground.
Sylphy and Brendan had adopted a more defensive position with Sylphy standing in front of Brendan, no doubt to either protect her new love interest or to give him time to cast his Techniques since he was slower in materializing them.
All I needed to do was to raise my hand before letting it drop in a descending motion, "Begin!"
Sylphy was the first to act, her Quark circulation being the fastest amongst them.
She raised her arms and a wall of air materialised in front of her, shielding both Brendan and her from the fireball that flew towards them a few moments later.
Noticing that Chris was shielding his eyes with the crook of his arm, I temporarily blinded myself by summoning a layer of darkness in front of my eyes.
