[ Thank the heavens above for Ajax. Yoimiya sees the creature coming for her but it's too late for her to move out of the way. Only within a hair's breadth of the monster's grip, she can feel the color draining from her face just before Ajax suddenly pulls her to the side. That thing is so fast it's unfair, all she can see is a blur surging past them. If it got ahold of her... gods, she does not wish to think about what might have happened.

Of course, it keeps coming back for them. Yoimiya lands on top of his naked body with a thud, moaning and rubbing her head from having the wind knocked out of her. But he's right, if they want a fighting chance at survival, she sorely needs to conjure up that mysterious purple bow she used against that terrible monster at the police station. They can't rely on the unstable state of Ajax's powers, not when she remembers that look of fear in his eyes back at her apartment, if there truly is a dark presence lurking inside of him, she's not about to force him to face it. Running purely on adrenaline, she quickly gets up, putting some distance between her and Ajax to throw this thing off its game. ]

I'll try! Please, please, please work. Come on... I need you. Eeek—!

[ Sensing that the blonde is trying to fight, the monster goes after her first, letting out a horrible screech as it extends its appendage to grab and drown her in the lake. By the skin of her teeth, she just barely manages to dodge, hitting the ground with her naked body. She's definitely going to feel that in the morning but there's no time to ponder on her horrible decisions, they need to fight. Yoimiya focuses all her efforts on harnessing the powers that lay deep inside of her. The mark on her chest glows in a soft blue but try as she might, the bow never manifests in her hands. ]

A-Ajax... I don't know what's wrong. I swear, I'm trying so hard to summon that bow but it's just not working.
