This caught the duo slightly off-guard, but it was nothing Hal couldn't respond to, especially with a massive Spirit Bear under his control.

With this move, the smoldering viper could either choose to get smacked from above or halt its advance.
But to the duo's horror, the snake zigzagged mid-air, dodging the bear's paws by using the flames in its tail, turning them on and off to control its lunge trajectory.
Hal's heart skipped a beat when his summon's paw was dodged.
