"What the hell did you do to Naeku!" the werelion roared furiously while instinctively taking a threatening step closer to Erik. He'd just seen this unknown shapeshifter make his niece disappear into thin air, and if he had any idea how it happened, or how to reverse it, he likely would have already attacked.
Erik, however, looked unimpressed, and instead pointed somewhere behind Naeku's uncle. "Bad time to get distracted, friend," he said nonchalantly.
The werelion's eyes flashed, and with a frustrated roar, he swung his body around, just in time to deflect a lance of swirling metalwind shards coming his way. Unsurprisingly, Abigail was all too happy about Naeku's disappearance, and didn't refuse the chance to attack her opponent while he was distracted.
