HA30

The Oobelisk sensed the threat, or sensed Yang, and began to transform like the one in Patch. With a groan and a crack, the tree limbs pulled and peeled back, uprooting themselves from the ground and stamping forward. Gnarled roots formed legs and branches cracked and sprayed leaves down on them. The tree itself came to life, its core a rock of black and red in the centre.

"Oh, come on," Yang said. "That's even more sad!"

The Golem roared oakenly and swung a bough at Yang's face. Her fist hit it, destroying the limb in an instant. Several branches still managed to catch her face, but with the same results it would have if she walked into a bush. She coughed some leaves out but was otherwise unharmed save for several leaves in her hair. Meanwhile, the Grimm was down an arm and moving with the speed one would expect of a sentient tree. Aka, not very fast at all.
