Releasing Ryuu, Rain curled up and freed her leg from the rope as it went to swing back out over the treacherous sea. Turning herself upright she hooked her foot under one of the boats railing, halting her swing and enabling her to come to stand atop the railing with the rope in her hand just as the merwoman released her spell. Rain lifted a hand to shield her eyes as beams of light shot out over the boat, she hadn't expected them to hit anyone least of all herself so as a beam connected with her chest she uttered a growl and grit her teeth together as the burning light sought out the darkness festering within her soul. Apart from the growl she kept herself upright and brushed the assault aside as if it hadn't happened. Keeping her gaze on the snake throughout the whole thing, Rain looked on with pity as it suddenly turned and rushed at the merwoman. There was nothing she could do to save her...as harsh as it was there was nothing she was prepared to do to save her, she was pushing herself to imagine everyone on the small boat as a part of the pack, adding another person whom she hadn't even spoke to was too much. Her eyes opened slightly wider in surprise as the snake suddenly sunk into the water in front of the merwoman and spoke to her in the same peculiar language or sound she had been chanting before hand. As the waves calmed and Vikki ran back out onto the deck, Rain turned her gaze briefly to the other woman as she yelled. Before noticing Andromeda leaning against the railing clearly in pain, careful to keep the sea snake and merwoman in her peripheral vision Rain lowered herself into a crouch and softly asked the snake haired woman [color=skyblue]"You okay there?"[/color] there was genuine concern in her voice despite the sharp edge to her expression and purple eyes. Whilst waiting for Andromeda to reply Rain glanced back up at Vikki before turning to look at the two aquatic creatures, she ground her teeth together in the silence that seemed to follow Maruki's cleansing. Part of her didn't want to jinx the uneasy peace they now found themselves in but another part of her demanded she questioned what had happened. Though she waited patiently for Andromeda for a few moments if nobody spoke up then she couldn't hold it in any longer and impatiently called out to the merwoman [color=skyblue]"What next?"[/color]
