[Asriel staggers back too, landing on all fours as his breath forms puffs of clouds in the cold air. His horns ache a little from the blow. Not surprisingly, it's kind of painful to smash your head against something metal.
Mettaton doesn't get a response - the wild look in Asriel's eyes is enough to tell him that he's beyond words right now. He sees Mettaton trying to form magic, and tries to summon his own fire - but nothing comes. As he struggles to get his fire going, he doesn't dodge the lightning bolt in time. He tries to leap out of the way, but it strikes him across his muzzle and scrapes against his shoulder.
It gets a surprised cry of pain out of him, but Asriel's lips curl as a growl escapes his throat.
It was fine. He could handle it. He won't let the next one hit him.
He runs again, this time aiming to throw his body against Mettaton's legs. Mettaton's height was an unfortunate advantage, and one that Asriel needed to fix if he was going to win this fight. If Mettaton tries to kick him away, Asriel will try to clamp his jaw down to keep himself from getting thrown back.
He'll fight. If Mettaton wants to fight him so damn badly, he'll give him a fight he can remember.]
