"Bunny huh?" Jotou saw her run off like a headless chicken.
"Jotou, get up, let's go!" Hotaru yanked her arm up. The two looked back and rushed toward the brunette. Not a single scratch on its shadow covered form. After a low chattering it began its chase once more...

"Can you un-heal her leg?" her eyes glazed over in her sprint.
"DON'T! I'M SORRY!" Fumeko learned to keep her mouth shut—at least for now.
"Anyway! The easiest solution right now is to get with people. They'll know to run when they see that thing coming!" Jotou's hair came loose strand by strand.

"We might die before that!" the increase of its footsteps kept Fumeko ahead of the other two.
"Jotou, you need to try something! How exactly did you two kill the last velatos?"
