Jioni had little time to rebound as another Tenebris held her chin back. Something about this position filled her with fear. Her body immediately froze, and her thoughts processed too slowly to react to anything. This was the same attack that damaged her face yesterday.
She pulled with all her weight down, her face now scraped. This only confirmed in her mind that the Tenebris were real and so was the blood that dripped from her forehead.
Before another Tenebris could come near, Jioni kicked it hard, and it evaporated; she still massaged her aching face. She rubbed it and couldn’t stop.
