The next large breath that Midnight took was not the same as the first. She knew that Leon was expecting flames so she waited until she saw him move to spin the spear. However, the frost that left her mouth was enough to freeze the water that became his shield.
This attack was enough to freeze the spear in to Leon's hand. He had decent resistances to the cold because he had lived in some very deep water. Most merfolk had a very high cold resistance. Yet, the unexpected change in moves gave Midnight the chance to jump forward and breathe flames on to her claws. The heat caused the ice to crack and Leon to be knocked away.
To follow up, Midnight was already spinning her tail toward Leon. If he had not rolled back he would have been in a position to lose the fight immediately. "I forgot you had more than just fire to use against people." Leon smiled. This fight was interesting., it was changing from second to second making it extremely fun.
