The Arbok huffed, now wasn't the time to hesitate. A hunter must never hesitate. It gave a loud hiss as it lunged forward, making itself appear enraged as it hurtled towards the Riolu.
The Archen was surprised by the sudden attack, and froze up with fear. Acro wanted to move and to help the riolu as the arbok slithered towards him, but his body's fear of being beaten paralyzed him.
Astrid on the other hand, thought that the arbok was moving forward to hug them. The dratini squealed in delight and managed to wrap around the Arbok's tail in a hug to greet the pokemon.
The arbok hadn't noticed the nuisance yet, and continued towards Lincoln, its fangs were cloaked in icicles that made it sharper and larger, it was Ice Fang.
