Continuing my story:

It took a while for the flames to reach the two of us, and I was able to react in time. Drawing upon what weak ice powers I had here inside the volcano, I cast a icy barrier that forced the jets of flame around us. I could feel the blazing inferno right next to me, as the flames seared past the two of us.

When the flames cleared, we took aim at our target. I unleashed a barrage of ice shards to attack her, but she easily stopped them all with fire coming from a swipe of her hands. My companion unleashed a bolt of lightning from her fingertips, but this was met with a fiery blast from the winged girl and stopped.

The fiery girl did not hesitate to counterattack. She responded with a salvo of rapid fireballs, which we barely managed to defend against.

"There's no way you could defeat me, not with the power of the volcano," she said to us. "Your attacks are just way too weak and I'm too strong for you."

She was right. We couldn't take her down like this. We needed to run away from her relentless assault. So I instructed my companion to run for the pathway, which she did. Both of us made quick haste for the pathway, intent on not only escaping, but also to reach the top.

We chose good. The winged girl made the lava rise, albeit slowly. Soon after we headed for the pathway, the lava swallowed up the plateau on which we were standing moments ago.

"Surely you can't outrun me," said the fire girl.

And before we knew it, she conjured a geyser of lava, and directed it at the volcano wall right in front of us. Behind us the lava in the chamber was rising. In front of us was lava headed down the pathway towards us. We were trapped.
