Zotoro stares down Jordan for a moment as if he waits for her to make the first move. Jordan notices this and decides to oblige.
"When I make my move I want you to run. Got it?" Jordan says to Nixoto.
"You can't be serious?! You haven't even seen what he is capable of! How do you-" Nixoto
"He hasn't exactly seen what I can do either remember?" Jordan
Nixoto takes a moment to think about it and reluctantly agrees.
"You make a valid point but nonetheless... His technique won't allow for easy escape I assure you." Nixoto
"How so?" Jordan
"Like you, I am quite certain.. That he has also planned ahead." Nixoto says just as an unexpected occurrence happens.
From every shadow in the surrounding area, from every dark corner that was visible, a dark figure in the shape of Zotoro's body sprouts up and leaves no room for escape for Nixoto.
"Oh my.... That's quite the technique." Jordan
"Told you." Nixoto
"My mission is to bring Nixoto in as peacefully as possible. You on the other hand, are not apart of my mission but nonetheless intriguing. You somehow immobilized my men and that was right after you knocked me out for but a brief moment. It is obvious that you are quite the skilled warrior but not of Oya. Who are you and where do you come from?" Zotoro
"Just because you have me backed into a corner doesn't mean that I will cooperate." Jordan
"A corner? There is obviously no corner here or on your back. Your words make no sense." Zotoro
".... Of course not." Jordan
"I will have to bring you back as well for further questioning." Zotoro
"Before you do that I have one question." Jordan says catching Zotoro's attention.
"What is it? None of your tricks." Zotoro asks with a cautious look.
"No tricks. Just a curious question. Why do you serve Uwad?" Jordan
"A foolish question. The Vanguard serves under Oyan royalty. Uwad is the current ruler of Oya. Nothing more nothing less." Zotoro
"Doesn't that rule only apply to the people of Oya?" Jordan
"..... The previous ruler foolishly changed that rule and suffered the consequences." Zotoro
Nixoto remains quiet the whole time wondering what Jordan is up to in this near impossible situation. Nixoto's gaze falls on Jordan's back the moment she notices something start to shift around under her uniform.
"Enough of your questioning! You are obviously stalling!" Zotoro
"..... Well you're not wrong. After all I need to buy time for this lazy guy." Jordan
Jordan quickly crouches forward on all fours and a massive black pillar erupts upwards from the center of her back. Both Zotoro and Nixoto are stunned by the sudden occurrence. The pillar changes its form into a right arm witch slams into the ground to the right of Jordan. The left arm sprouts the same way the right did and slams to the left of Jordan. The arms slowly press down on the ground and lifts up a massive giant that stands just above the forest. Nixoto and Zotoro are even more baffled by the giant that appeared from Jordan's body.
"Oh Tiny!~." Jordan says to the giant.
The giant known as Tiny lowers its head to look at Jordan. Jordan gives a mischievous smile and points her finger at Zotoro who gives a shocked expression the moment he noticed Jordan's intention. Tiny glances over at Zotoro and takes immediate action. Tiny raises his massive right hand high over his head and swings it down after Zotoro. Tiny's arm is so massive that it shifts the air current as it comes crashing down into the ground creating a crater as a result. Zotoro avoided the impact but is blown a few yards backwards from the impacts pressure. The shadow copies of Zotoro were instantly blown out of existence. Zotoro hits the ground and tumbles before he comes to a complete stop. He slowly picks himself up to one knee, shakes off the impact and looks towards the direction he flew from only to find an unfathomable sight. The giant that suddenly appeared from out of nowhere, that towered just above the forest, had suddenly vanished in thin air along with Nixoto and Jordan.
