The fact that two remained in their spot definitely aided her, the last thing she needed was to have to deal with six of them again. However, as she crossed them, she realised that the four eagerly reached for their bound buddies. She wondered if they still possessed the instinct to help the two then realised that they were likelier to kill the handicapped ones. She had not bothered to check if Tsuru made headway up until now.
Instead she shot her bullet yet again, to rally them up and away from the buried fellows. While she didn't want to kill them, no one said that she couldn't knock them out with a punch or something... She made sure she wasn't averse to that possibility, although it'd still be a last resort option. She simply knocked the four back with her darkness disk, as they continued in hot pursuit of her, having lost sight of their friends for the moment.
She continued running laps around the exhaust vent. For the time being, they seemed to have lost a lot of energy. But she couldn't keep this up as long as her partner had either. She sighed softly and hoped the group didn't split and come from one side each. Her own breathing turned shallow as she realised how out of practice she was when it came to running. '
Come on, come on...' she chanted, hoping the man was close.
They were catching up to her, despite lacking in speed, their slow movements helped them endure longer than her dashing earned her. She clearly needed to work on her endurance. Unfortunately for her, as she looked over her shoulder, she lost track of where she was and one of the buried men caught hold of her ankle, causing her to trip.
Between the half-buried fellows and a girl who had just fallen on her face, the plagued men chose the latter. As the crowded above her, she merely held up her hands at her face, scurrying in an attempt to get away and get up somehow... Just then, they all fell... She winced, watching them suffer before they finally woke utterly bewildered...
