Maria continued her pursuit of the ice bear, her determination fueling each step. The elemental beast's frustration mounted with every failed attempt to shake off its relentless pursuer. Despair crept into the creature's consciousness as nothing it tried could create any meaningful distance between them. This small human girl had become a formidable adversary, a force of nature that the ice bear simply could not escape, no she is a devil toying with him as she pleases.
Gripped by a fear born of desperation, the ice bear made the decision to stand and fight, realizing this was a do-or-die situation. Biting its own chest like a gorilla, the giant creature psyched itself up before uprooting a large ice tree to use as a club.
Seeing this, Maria halted her pursuit, raising her crystal sword. A smile crept across her lips - the time had come to end this little game.
"Roarr!"
