Undyne laughed maniacally as she attacked, unfazed by the wolf's own power-up. Then again, right now her mind was not even capable of being afraid, even if she had stood before Diablo himself. The Determination that pumped through her veins had her bent entirely on destroying everything that was an enemy, leaving no room for anything besides that. How very anime of her, she would have thought if she knew what state she was in right now.
The wolf's jaws locked around her forearm but the wooden teeth could not penetrate the thick armor plates. Undyne laughed again as she stabbed her spear through its front leg in retaliation, then tore her arm out of the bite. The wolf was similarly unfazed to her though: now being as huge and powerful as it was thanks to the sacrifice of the lesser wolves the spear stab was about as effective as pricking it with a needle. Not that it discouraged her from trying again and again until the spear shattered into magic dust. She stepped back, down to one spear, and summoned a pair of Trick Spears to pierce the wolf from above - again to little effect.
However the witch-tree had realized what trouble its familiar was in and extended a root through the ground that reached out and connected itself to the wolf's tailtip like a vine. An eerie green and brown glow spreaded through the wooden creature while Undyne exchanged her spears for Taitan again. Mindless as she may be her instincts told her that her spears were insufficient to do much damage to this huge creature and thus something with greater effect was needed. However she did not pay any mind to the glow, not even when Guu yelled to her to get out of the way.
As she charged in with Taitan ready to cut the wolf down to size the massive creature opened its maw and exhaled. A wave of pestilence filled the air, rotting the scattered-about branches of previously slain wolves within seconds - a concentrated version of the noxious magic the witch-tree was using to rot the life in its vicinity. Undyne charged straight through it and roared as she raised Taitan over her head with both hands and slashed the wolf's head, cleaving it in half. The sword hit the ground the next moment and Undyne promptly pulled it back up for a reverse slash that severed the two parts from the wolf's neck. Both fell to the ground and rolled aside, but the timber creature did not fall. Undyne pulled her sap-stained blade back and was about to run past it on to the next target when the headless wolf lunged at her and slashed at her with its front paws, hitting the joints on her armor on her right shoulder with two of its claws and tearing deep into her flesh.
Pain rushed through her and she stumbled backwards but the wolf wasn't finished: it slashed at her again and hit her chest armor, which promptly shattered like glass, leaving her in her tanktop. Had she been conscious, Undyne would have noticed then that the pestilent breath from earlier had made her skin pale and sickly and affected her armor, making it brittle like rotten wood. The slash marks on her shoulder tore further open as she made a brisk movement to raise Taitan over her shoulder for another attack, and clear blue liquid dripped down her arm and right side. The Determination was already starting to liquefy her.
But she was Undyne the Undying, and her only purpose right now was to kill the wolf before her. If decapitating it didn't work she would just have to cut it to bits and grind its core to dust under her boot. As more of the liquid dripped from the side of her mouth she inhaled, then exhaled a breath of pestilence at the headless wolf, which leapt back to get out of its range. But Undyne followed up, raising her left hand and summoning a large skeletal head of a fish behind her, that charged up a white beam between its bony jaws. The wolf narrowly dodged the Piranha Blaster's beam, but its leg, hit by the pestilent cloud, gave away under it and shattered. Once more laughing maniacally and ignoring her injury, Undyne charged forward again to engage the wolf with Taitan, giving it no time to rest.

Quote:Just to be clear, Undyne Mimic'd Sans's Gaster Blaster (hence "Piranha Blaster" :hur: )
From the previous round, having maintained her Power-Up for the entire round Undyne has spent 2 SP (2/4).
She will maintain the Power-Up for this round too (SP: 0/4), but any of you can feel free to have her pass out or be killed before that. She won't be struggling for much longer after having been hit by the pestilent wave head-on - she's more injured than she realizes it, because Berserker mode.
