"Ohh, now that's more like it," she said with a large grin as she held her sword up to judge the situation. A few more shadows had joined the fight, one even sending Waver on a tumble that caused Illyana to just shake her head.
"Hey, shadows, pick on someone your own size," she said as loudly as she could to the creatures. At least it seemed to get their attention away from her companion for the time being. A few more had come out now, moving to cut off all forms of escape for the two of them. Fighting directly would only result in harm potentially coming to Waver while she couldn't look so magic it would have to be. She began to chant a few words under her breath and a strange sort of heat began to swirl around her. Two serpents rose from the heat, each made of hellfire and each slithering out in an opposite direction towards the groups of shadows. Hellfire wasn't like normal fire, it held no elemental power and instead damaged directly with the dark energy of Limbo itself. Illyana directed the snakes out with her hands sending them to wrap around the shadows, engulfing them in tornado of flames.
The expended dark energy resulted in horns appearing on her head as she tried to pull the fire back after it had done it's job of ridding them of their Shadowy enemies. More would come with the show she was putting on but she wasn't entirely certain if the correct move would be to stand their ground here.

"Come. We need to leave before more arrive."
