"Where did she go?!" Emily exclaimed to herself. Her heart skipped a beat as she thought of a scary possibility.
However, she quickly calmed herself down. If by the unlikely chance that Layla was burnt away by her fire. She would definitely have resisted visibly first. Not to mention that Muku wouldn't have just looked on as it happened. Her attack wasn't strong enough to kill someone of equal strength like Layla, so there would have been enough time for Muku to act.
With that realisation, Emily immediately turned around to look behind her. She was expecting Layla to be there by some weird means she employed like in the movies.
However, she was met with nothing. She then tried looking around the arena and still nothing. Layla was still nowhere to be seen. Emily started getting more and more tense.
"Flame Dome!" As a last resort, Emily cast a defensive spell that covered her from all angles.
