[ hope you're a really fast runner, Kaito, because now Otay's taking a leap and launching himself through the air at him-- which is apparently a thing he can do somehow-- prepared to bring his sword down on him. ]

You break it, you pay for it!

[curses and skids to a halt, drawing his own sword from its shield as he swivels around to face his pursuer]

They would've broken anyway. . .!

[and he lifts his own blade to block Otay's attack]

[Cowboy is choosing when to pick his battles and when not to. Even though he wants to stay back and help, he's weaponless. Which is why he makes sure that him and Coin are still running. Hoping that Kaito will be fine.]

[ like he really cares about it anyway!!

when their blades meet, he presses forward, pushing his sword into Kaito's hard before pulling back, trying to slash his right side. ]

[then why even bring it up!!]

[thank god he took swordsmanship lessons from Clover. he jerks back as Otay does, moving his blade to parry the slash at his side. he's completely on the defensive here, focusing on blocking attacks and not making any himself, as he slowly takes step after step back down the hallway]

[he hopes Armin and the others are still running]

[Don't worry Kaito, they're all still running.

You can play swordsman with the other guy!]

[ puns!!

as Kaito blocks another attack, he brings his leg up and tries to kick him in the stomach, under their swords.

so unfortunate, but Nyssa wants them alive, so he can't even go for the throat. ]

[takes the kick to the stomach, which hurts twice as much thanks to the bruises Shadow Rook left earlier. he sucks in a sharp breath, expression contorting into one of pain, but there's a reason he didn't try to dodge this attack]

[his mouth twitches into a little grin as he grabs a hold of Otay's ankle with his free hand, swings his entire body around, and tries to use the force of that momentum to send the shadow crashing into a nearby mirror. hopefully, if this plan succeeds, it'll give him enough time to start running again]

[sorry not sorry Otay!1]

[ IT WORKS

partly because he wasn't expecting that from KAITO. because he looks like a WUSS.

he hits the mirror with an oomph, and it takes him a few seconds to regain his bearings-- leaving plenty of time to start fleeing again.

though once he's back on his feet, he's resuming the chase. this time, he does look rather pissed. ]

[It's right around here that Tama comes back, via a leaping elbow to the back of Yato's head.

He doesn't stop, grabbing Kaito, shouting:] LET'S GO! [And running like hell.]

[NEVER UNDERESTIMATE WEENIE LOOKING THIEVES, OTAY!!]

[Kaito had already turned around, ready to bolt the rest of the way to the exit, when Tama grabs him]

-- hey there! I was wondering what happened to you!

[YES IT IS TIME TO RUN WITH HIM, LET'S GET OUT OF HERE. though this poor thief might just be moving with a heavy limp]

[ From somewhere far behind them- there's the sound of heavy footsteps pounding after them.

Better run, little wisps. ]

[ now I'm lying on the cold hard ground.

oooooow. ]

[ ...Yato's lucky Ochre's shadow was borne of protectivness, because Ochre slows long enough to pull Yato to his feet. ]
