The bear comes running towards the four of us as fast as it can.

Seems like it's braver now that its barrier is back.

How do I know its barrier is back?

I don't.

If those marks on it meant it had a problem before, then it probably referred to the damage I dealt to it before.

Should I use 「Accelerated Thinking」?

No, I think I'll be fine.

I'll have to talk and coordinate with my siblings.

「Accelerated Thinking」makes that hard, so it best not use it unless needed.

"Here he comes." Big Bro #1 says.

"Alright. Just stick to the plan." I say 

Once the bear got close enough, we each breathed out a 「Fire Dragon Breath」at it.

The bear's barrier protected it like we thought it would, but the breaths did their job.

The bear kept charging forward and we all moved away from it.

With a loud 'thunk' the bear runs into a tree and is a bit stund.

From our scattered positions, we breathe flames at the bear and aim to set it ablaze once more.

It was wishful thinking, but that crash didn't stunt it in the slightest.

Guess we'll have to continue from here.

"Okay Big Bro," I growl out "Let's go."

"Right." Big Bro #3 replies.

Big Bro #3 turns to face the bear before letting out a roar.

The bear turns to face him and lets out a roar of its own.

I climb up a tree myself and begin to climb along the branches.

Sound familiar?

Well if it ain't broke, don't fix it.

The plan?

It's simple

Big Bro #3 will use Intimidate to lure the bear over to the tree

Big Bro #1 and Big Sis #5 will use their flame to blind the bear

When it gets close to the tree, I'll jump down with 「Sneak Attack 」and aim for it's star mark.

With luck, I can knock its barrier down for Big Bro #1.

The main problem lies in Big Bro #3 and myself.

Big Bro #3 is fairly slow, so he'll be in danger if he gets caught by earth magic, or the bears charge.

As for myself, the more I use 「Sneak Attack」, the less effective it becomes.

Every failure means we have to repeat the process, and makes it more unlikely to work.

Preferably, I'd like to knock it's barrier down within 3 strikes, but I'm not holding my breath.
