> Fling a diagonal line of knives across her body, angled so the higher knifes are aimed toward her machete shoulder (and possibly arm, if it's raised).

> Jump back again!

>You jump back again! The machete passes very uncomfortably close to you; you hear cloth tearing and feel a sudden pain, thankfully not too sharp! Your danmaku hit home, drawing a grunt from the brute.
>Your back is practically to the tree now as the brute's weapon passes you by, and she has to recover from her wide attack.

Regular danmaku takes no prep time. Only the knives require pulling something out first.

I thought that it was so, since it was said our regular danmaku wasn't all that.

>You send more arrowhead danmaku toward her and move back and to the left, putting the tree to your side. Your torso stings notably as you do; it seems she grazed you, but you doubt it's anything serious. This time she is better prepared and moves to the left as well, moving around them.

>You duck down, leaning toward the left! It is nearly not enough, forcing you to lean further than you want, but her hand passes just over you. Unfortunately, you have lost balance are about to fall, either you are going to have to catch yourself, or do something creative.
