(Link frowns - if this Phantom's tactics are because of what he thinks, then it's smarter than he gave it credit for!)
(...Wait, no. That was his original plan. Whatever. Who cares, Link? Concentrate!)
(He holds up the Hylian Shield to protect himself, the shards of light bouncing off of it in stray directions. Then, while Koata's hopefully distracting the thing... he swings the Master Sword to fire a sword beam at the Phantom Ganon!)
Hyah!
A shriek.
It fills both of their heads. All that they can hear. So loud their eardrums might have shattered had it not only been in the mind.
The beam connected.
The phantom disappeared. The fog started to thin. Further in, it stayed. It wasn't killed yet.
On the grass, streaks of purple... something. Acid? Acid didn't have the consistency this did; it was almost slime. Its surface bubbled, melting the grass itself.

(Link instinctively winces at the mental shriek... but once his mind clears, and he sees the apparent Malice blood, he realizes what just happened. And he smirks.)
...Heh!
(He knows his work isn't done, though. His red counterpart is injured off somewhere, and the Phantom retreating means it can lick its wounds.)

>("Look for Link.")
(With those words to Koata, Blink sprints off towards where he can see the mist or detect it with his Master Sword... if he can find such things.)

"...Why are you turning tail, then?"
