[Just because something has to be one way doesn't mean it will be that way; even with the armor not weighing her down, Lightning is tiring and tiring fast. Another hit like that Ragnarok and she's out of this fight.
Until then, however, she's continually striking at Xion's head to dislodge the helmet. She's careful to strike with only the blunt end of the blade, not wanting to cause any more harm than she has to, but every time she strikes she looks Xion in the eye, trying to get her to back down. It's probably not working, though. Offense meets offense and stubborn meets stubborner. It does happen sometimes.]
