Staring nervously at the two, Eden slid her hands across her chest and drew out a thick barrier of psynergy.
"She's ready," Azuka announced, then released a stream of yellow psynergy from her hands. It smashed into Eden, driving the girl backwards, and she worked frantically to restore her barrier as Azuka's attack dissipated it. Cliff watched in awe as Azuka continued to pump her psynergy into the blast, driving Eden farther back along the dirt.
"Look how well she's keeping up," Azuka said. "On top of that, her barrier's growing stronger. See, if I push just a little harder..."
Azuka leaned into her stream, pushing her psynergy forward so that it began to smother her student. Eden closed her eyes, searching for more power from a deeper source. As she let citrus psynergy flow out from within, Eden could feel her shield spread out around her, fusing not just with her barrier, but her entire body.
