Splitting up their attacks hardly helped too. They were clearly outsped, with the spiders lightning-fast movements a blur as they maneuvered heavy-footed across the web. Sato's flexed his hand out, cramped from the white-knuckled grip he had on his bow for the past while. There was no way they'd win at this rate...

	That just meant they had to change it up. Or rather, another factor had to be introduced. Said factor took the form of the door to the room bursting open. Noboru and Akane ran in, followed by the sounds of communications being restored. Sato gave a sigh of relief, even if the fight wasn't over yet. With Megumi back, and the backup team joining, the tides of battle might be in their favor now.

	Noboru shouted a bunch of obscenities and insults at the shadow, which provoked a very confused look from Sato. What... was he doing? Trying to piss it off more? Was this some obscure way of getting it to stop repairing the webs or something? Regardless of what Noboru's intentions were, the spider's attention was now directly on him and Akane, who had joined in on the 'roasting'. Sato might've laughed at some of the things they were saying, had the situation not been so serious. It irked him that they were playing around the way they were when they fighting for both theirs and Ayano's life. Sato glanced over at Kotori, who seemed similarly puzzled yet relieved, and then to Matt and Leiko, who guarded the door from any additional shadows. Without any orders, and no attacks directed at him, Sato stood where he was cautiously, watching Noboru's plan unfold.

	The two continued taunting, though after a bit of approaching and watching, the shadow slung some web at them, catching Akane and pinning her to the ground as the shadow spider crept onto her. Again, unsure of what to do, Sato merely watched as the shadow's hand things turned into giant blades, rearing to slice at Akane. But before it could do anything, Rui thankfully did something, summoning his persona to hold back the shadow momentarily. He shouted, [color=slategray]"Take it down! Give it all you've got!"[/color]

	Sato's attention snapped back to himself, nodding even though nobody noticed. Rushing forward, Sato summoned his persona again as he aimed another arrow. Aiming straight at the shadow's most sensitive looking part, the figure on top, Sato fired the arrow. As it flew from the bow, Chronos generated another blast of wind, this time propelling the projectile at blurring speeds. Combined with he force of the gusts, the arrow hit hard. Sato smiled to himself over his own cleverness.

	As he went to do another Garula, Sato looked over at Noboru. To his surprise, the second year suddenly ripped off his shirt before ripping Akane out of the webbing. Grabbing her by the arms, Noboru began to swing the girl around like some kind of human merry-go-round, before launching her straight at the shadow. Akane did a powerful aerial kick and then quickly followed it up with her persona. Noboru started pummeling the shadow with his own fists, only adding onto the list of mind-numbing things Noboru had done in the minute or two he'd been in the fight.

	Pumping more wind attacks into the shadow, Sato stood on the side, exhausted from the exertion of the mirror world. Using his persona so much was starting to be a mental strain, his head throbbing as his persona swung at the shadow with its scythe. With the end of the battle in sight, Sato forced himself to give it everything he had left until the spider was stomped on.
