[ Never before has Yoimiya felt so weak and helpless in her entire life. She maps out the police station in her head, there's the fire exit in the back but with how fast and powerful this aberration is, they'll be caught before even making it to the emergency door. Trapped like rats with little means to escape, it's starting to feel like their only option is to accept their untimely deaths.
If they by some chance make it out this alive, Yoimiya promises she will never complain about being bored ever again. Ultimately, doesn't look like she'll receive a chance to appreciate life, time ticking with each passing second. All she can do is watch in horror as elongated tendrils spurt from the skin of it's arm, stretching out to grab the man standing beside her. If she was in the right state of mind, she might have noticed the monster seems to be here specifically for Ajax but as she backs up to the wall right alongside him, the only thought in her mind is praying for her death to be as swift and painless as possible.
Suddenly, his voice snaps her out of wallowing in the depths of despair. She sends a glance his way, carefully listening to everything he has to say. The revelation that the monster is here for him shocks her to the core. A tempest of questions swirl around in her head but there's not enough time to ask. She's left stunned by his selfless request, it would be so easy to use a helpless girl like her as bait while he makes his escape. Criminal or not, no one deserves to die in such a brutal matter. ]
Then you'll be left all alone with that thing. I...
[ I can't bear to see you die.
For some inexplicable reason, her heart sinks at thought of him dying. It's more than just her moral compass, every fiber of her being aches and twists at his demise. This guy is a complete and total stranger to her, on top of possibly having connections to some terrible organization. Why is she so torn up over him?
She doesn't get a chance to finish that train of thought, the monster surges forward, hellbent on capturing it's target. Yoimiya barely has time to react, dodging just in the brink of time by throwing herself on the floor. Slowly, she looks up, her face paling at the sight of the hole in the wall left by the creature. Just being on the receiving end of that tackle would have ended their lives in an instant.
Her whole body sputters and shakes as she stands up, glancing back and forth between the hallway leading to the back and the mysterious ginger. No longer conflicted, Yoimiya knows what she has to do.
Gathering all of her courage, she makes a run for it but in a different direction that Ajax might not expect. Instead of sprinting to the back door, she maneuvers to the desk, recalling there's an extra set of handcuff keys inside the draw. An indescribable feeling snaps within her, as if a burning flame just got cranked up to the hottest degree, her fight or flight instinct kicking in to the fullest. If this truly is her end, she at least wants to die fighting.
She takes a deep breathe before exhaling, setting her sights on the sickening warped smile of the monster. Once again, it turns its attention towards Ajax, making its way over to the young man with it's limb outstretched. That cursed thing looks way too pleased having it's prey trapped in a corner, she can't take this any longer. ]
BACK OFF YOU FREAK!
[ Armed with only a folding chair, Yoimiya rushes into the fray. Putting all of her power into this strike, she slams the metal chair right onto the monster's head. While it's certainly not enough to knock it out, the creature hadn't been expecting the blonde to stay and fight back. A vicious roar spills out of it's mouth from the contact of the object bashing into it's skull, staggering back, dazed and confused as the world spins around it. Adrenaline pumps through her veins, keeping a firm hold on the chair that now has a dent in it due to the monster's tough exterior, but she's still not going to back down.
Behind her soft golden irises lies an intense fire burning behind them as he locks stares with Ajax, sending him her answer. It might be stupid but she's either going to escape with him or die trying. ]
