Icarus fell onto his knees, shifting appearance between Phantom and Human, "Argh, I can't tell how to resolve this..." he said as drops of blood fell from his mouth. "It's changing to rapidly for my systems to repair it..." he said as he told them about the nature of the toxin. "Please, go on and fight, the best I can do for now I wait it out and hope for the best." he said, dropping down onto the ground. Virtue yelled angrily, breaking free of the Amber and charging at the dragon, spearing it's left arm with the lance, and climbing up said arm. Vexacus and X were still holding out with the soldiers, the numbers diminishing as the fight against Kaze continued. Kaze walked around smirking, "The Great Phantom Captain, brought down by a little poison." he said as he laughed at Icarus's bleeding out as the poison prevented the thorn wounds from healing.

"Riki no like bad man." Riki said, swinging his Biter at Kaze's legs. "I won't leave you in the condition you're in. I'm a medic, so I can't just turn a blind eye to this. We just need to get an antidote for it." Sharla said.

Icarus couldn't move, his arms and legs paralyzed by the toxin, "If you can create a constantly evolving antidote, that might be the cure..." he said, coughing up a bit of blood. Kaze feel, "A bit brutish don't you think?" he said, getting back up as the Botanical Dragon was stabbed through the eye with Caliburn. Kaze stepped lightly, raising his blade, Psu-Masa.

"It would take some time, but it is possible." Sharla said. Riki backed away slightly. "Shulk, Riki need some help!" Riki shouted. Shulk rushed to Riki and Riki took Shulk's place in the battle. Shulk raised the Monado Kaze.

Kaze smirked, making minor movements with his blade, which was sending strong slices of wind at Shulk, while he did so, he moved about in his area, sending vines at Shulk's feet. Virtue continued his onslaught, chopping down the Botanical Dragon, claw by claw, arm by arm, which would be until he was slammed onto the ground by an arm.

Jeff pulled out his bow and fired it at Kaze.

Kaze noticed the wind and the whistling noise, "Sorry, but no dice." he said, sending a blade of air through the arrows, slicing them in half and dropping them to the ground.

Jeff cursed under his breath and tried to think of an alternate plan.

Shulk 'danced' around not letting his feet stay in the same place for too long. He swung the Monado at Kaze.

Jeff pulled out a crooked dagger. "We'll I guess this is my only option." Jeff said.

Kaze smirked, blocking it with the blade, "How cunning." he said, causing a gigantic Venus fly trap mouth to appear below the area where Shulk was. Icarus lay there, his blood seeping it's way towards Kaze.

Jeff charged at Kaze with his dagger.

Thanks to Shulk's Visions he was able to dodge the Venus fly trap. "You underestimate the power of the Monado." Shulk said. He casted Monado Speed on himself to make it easier for him to dodge attacks.

Kaze chuckled, "Perhaps I do, but then again." he said, as he caused plants to rupture around him, spraying the area around him and Shulk with a paralyzing powder. Icarus's pool of blood soon reached Kaze, and he was oblivious to it until recently. Kaze laughed, "Oh, I'm standing in Pathetic Juice, what a shame." he said mockingly.

Jeff jumped onto Kaze.
