[Shousetsu can scarcely hear the cries and clamoring of the people fleeing over the hybrid's shrill trumpeting, but somehow she knows there are still stragglers trying to leave the building. It's difficult to be aware of one's surroundings when a behemoth with giant spikes and feet are stomping about as though it were trying to create a hole in the ground, but Shousetsu tries all the same.
She can also barely hear Ushi Gozen over the commotion, but somehow that low tone reaches her all the same.
Shousetsu snuffs the magical energy from her hand and hurries across, to the far right of the hybrid as to not become a target when it finally decides to start rampaging again. When she puts enough distance between herself and the beast she finds overturned tables, shattered glass and what seems to be parts of cages strewn about.
Ah, so it was their group that let this hybrid free... and it was up to her and Ushi Gozen to subdue it.
Shousetsu is just turning to look over her shoulder when that wave of forceful energy hits her like a gust and she stares as Ushi Gozen glows in the center, like a fallen star ready to project itself back into the night. The air itself swirls with electricity and power and she finds herself too distracted by the sight to notice movement to her side—
—that is, until a couple shuffle out from beneath one of the abandoned tables. Upon seeing and feeling the collecting energy from the scene before them they scramble to their feet, and Shousetsu only allows a half-second to pass before she leaps forward and grabs both their arms.]
Ah!
[The white-haired girl pulls them both back, just in time for one of the pieces of jagged rock fly past and shatter the table they had just crawled underneath from. They all but collapse against her, shock etched in their faces, but Shousetsu is looking elsewhere again.
She is looking at Ushi Gozen and the way the beast rears its back, ready to attack.
Her heart leaps in her throat as she takes in the sight— that same yet painfully familiar anticipation rising in her chest.]
