"I-I know, but..." But she never expected to go all out on someone who she did care about. It was one thing to attack Hunters--she wouldn't hesitate to exploit their weaknesses if it would save anyone--but Shun?
Still, he was right. Not only would Titus exploit his weaknesses, but the Hunters too. Xiu took a deep breath, and then nodded. "Alright. I...er. I'm sorry, aniki."
Concentrating on what she knew of Shun and what she could draw from her surroundings, the baku focused on creating a figure--no, two figures. One was a little hazy--a tall, dark figure of Shun's father--and the other was a smaller, white figure who was kneeling on the ground and clutching her arms around herself. She seemed to be in pain.
It was pretty clear that Xiu went right for the two people who Shun felt most strongly about, but in opposite ways. HP: 34 Damage: 4 Status: --

Good, it seemed like he was paying attention. Would he be able to fight with an obvious distraction? Xiu lifted a hand, giving a little flick of her finger. Suddenly, the voices of both apparitions grew louder. The pleads for help, and the cold, cruel words echoed around them.
Taking her chance, Xiu swung her fist forward--was Shun paying enough attention to her, his current opponent? She felt her attack graze him, and then stumbled past, a wave of dizziness momentarily coming over her. She clutched at her head, but the sensation disappeared as quickly as it came.
...Looked like she wasn't really used to her manipulation powers yet. Or at least, there was an obvious limit on what she could do. HP: 31 Damage: 2 Status: --

And just like that, Shun saw his father raise his weapons before bringing it down onto Mitsu, sending a spray of blood everywhere. There was no sound in the room apart from her scream.
"NO!" he shouted before rushing at his father. Before he could reach him, the image of the older Reaper faded. He was untouchable. Mitsu, though, remained in a bloody heap on the ground. Staring down at her form, it seemed that he didn't really hear what Xiu had said, but he soon turned his attention to her anyway.
"You... You brought him here," he hissed, seemingly lost within the dream right now. Soon he vanished into a puff of smoke, only to reappear numerous times to strike at the Baku. Despite the fact that he still had her weakpoints in mind, he was a little too distraught. His lucidity wavered, making him less effective over all.
HP: 23 Damage: 11 damage (10.5 rounded up) Status: +1 accuracy for this turn and no more!

Xiu was too slow to dodge the attack, and she held her arms over her head in a futile attempt to protect herself. Less effective or not, the blows were not light ones for the baku.
Fortunately, she managed to wrench herself back and out of his reach. Her gaze flickered towards the reaper's eyes, and she noticed how his lucidity seemed to be fading. That wasn't good. What could she do to prevent that? If she didn't do something quick--a sharp action, some kind of sudden pain--then his mind might drift off.
...What did they do in those movies again when they wanted to "wake up" someone? Ah, right.
The baku suddenly brought her hand across Shun's cheek, her own cheeks puffed out in a disapproving expression. "Don't forget what you're trying to learn here, aniki! Stay conscious, and remember that what happened just now wasn't real." HP: 20 Damage: -- Status: WAKE UP SLAP

She waved off his apology. "If there's anyone who should apologize, it should be me. I...I didn't want to do that, but..." Trailing off, she shook her head. She wasn't sure if it had helped, but hopefully Shun had gotten something out of that!
"And I know that Titus wouldn't, but...we're just practicing, right? If I call things to your attention, then maybe you'll be more aware of them in the future!" That was her reasoning, at least. Before she could say more, Shun had lunged forward to attack. Xiu lifted her arms to protect herself as best as she could, and then gave him a small shove to push him away.
