Sunny had never fought in his shadow form, and really, he didn't even know how. All he had were his instincts, but that wasn't enough. In fact, trusting your instincts too much was a sure way to get yourself killed.
Intelligence was the most dangerous weapon in the arsenal of a human, and it was Sunny's mind that ended up saving his life.
He had realized that his enemy was not invisible, but a shadow just like him only a moment before the creature was upon him. In that split second, Sunny managed to come up with the only way to escape death.
As sharp pain pierced his entire being, he lunged forward… and escaped the shadows, rolling away on the grass. Jumping to his feet, Sunny staggered and clutched at his side, blood flowing between his fingers.
"Argh…"
The shadow of the unknown abomination lunged in pursuit… and swiped uselessly across his body, not causing him any harm.
It was just a shadow, after all.
