His shadow took the hit and turned back around with a back hand to his chest, claws nicking his chest and tearing his shirt. He jumped back from another strike and swung his club again at what had to be the thing's head. That knocked the other thing back, but his club smacked into the wall, wedging into a little nook with one of it's stylish edges. It was stuck for a moment and Duo was about to take another hit when said defense came right up out of the ground.

A slab of stone between him and his enemy. Gave him time to get his weapon back.

"Thank!" He said with gratitude, tugging that thing out only to dash forward when the slab fell to beat that thing into the ground.

Meanwhile Two more were heading for the other Duo and Toph. One flying above.
