[ normally, this is something shadow could dodge with ease, but when sparks fly and claws strike down at his shoulder, he allows for it to happen. it burns through as blood flies, and some drip onto the ground as the other leaves a gash behind. shadow feels numb at the contact, but that doesn't stop him from using his good hand to pull at the spear.
infinite is taking another step back as he watches the two, that's fine, it works, but the older one needs to avoid getting hit. how else will infinite prolong his life to prepare his own attacks if shadow fails halfway through?
the phantom ruby glows again, the world around them glitching, and it's the fuzziness nearby that shadow's eyes widen, and he pushes the other back with the spear still in hand. the other seems unwilling to let it go, so it's fine, he'll continue to hold while pushing the younger back. ]
