[These commands might work better if their target had any idea what she was doing. The golem lumbering away leaves Ami standing dumbly in the grass, staring after it, then staring at her hand as if it just grew 20 extra fingers, then back at the monster.
Did... did that just happen? The memory had come to her weeks ago, out of nowhere - Aradia desecrating the temple, snapping the head off a gigantic stone frog with nothing but a wave of her hand. She'd joked a little about how useful it'd be to have a power like that. But never more useful than now, apparently.
> Golem: Quickly retrieve arm from woods.
The arm is stuck in a tree, which it has also partially uprooted; it's easily within the golem's reach, though, so the monster successfully retrieves its own arm, now wielding it as the legendary weapon Arm & Hammer! It's not actually legendary it's just using its own severed arm as a hammer, that's the joke. With a roar that sounds like stone grinding on stone, it brandishes the Arm & Hammer, then comes charging toward the one who wounded it.
Ami wants to run. Every instinct in her is telling her to run, except one. The one that whispers Aradia would fight.
She braces her feet, extends her arm. As the golem winds up for a home-run swing, she flings her arm upward. Its momentum, suddenly redirected, carries it bodily into the air over her head. It is RIDICULOUS what kind of air this thing is getting. Dude come get the ruler check this out.
And after a hang-time that feels interminable (though it's only a couple of seconds), Ami swivels on her heel and brings her hand down. A force greater than gravity propels the golem down hard into the asphalt that used to be the Mickey D's parking lot, before it got bought out by McDitto's. The impact buckles the pavement and kicks up a huge amount of dust, obscuring the golem from view.
This is now the coolest thing that Ami's ever done in her short life, but rest assured, she is screaming internally.]
