Just one more shot... Her endurance was quite unusual, but one more shot and she would be nothing but another dead corpse... Yasha remembered having those thoughts, she remembered the cruel smile on her face as she saw Senna's hp... She was basically a walking corpse, and yet she had the audacity of boasting and taunting Yasha... Yasha remembered clearly her finger, rubbing the trigger as she savoured that moment... But then... Everything went wrong very, very quickly.

Yasha felt the magic inside her, almost like a thousand needles piercing her body as her own mana, and the very magic flowing through the earth went rampage. It was like the very earth was screaming in agony, as raw magic power from the leylines went rampage.
Lightning storms crashing down from the sky, erecting crimson red crystalline spires wherever it touched.
The agony Yasha was feeling was something indescribable. It was almost her very soul was rebelling against her body, trying to tear her open and get out.

But almost as sudden as it started, everything stopped. Yasha's vision went strange, as she was consumed by a vortex of raw and furious colors, the pain finally disappearing completely...
She tried to blink, but she could only see only the strange vortex. Her vision getting weaker and weaker, the last thing she saw before going unconscious was a forest... She could see the trees, smell the earth... Was she hallucinating? Was that death?

After minutes that looked like ages, Yasha finally was able to gather enough strength to open her eyes. As the ringing on her ears slowly subsided, she could hear a very familiar sound. The sound of a battle. Steel clashing against steel, screams of anger, pain, fear, both human and inhuman.
As she tried to get up, she could distinguish humanoid figures dashing through the forest, but they weren't man. Foxes that walked just like men, wielding weapons, talking, walking... These foxmen were running right through a boulder, from which Yasha could distinguish as the source of the sounds of battle.

Some type of portal or illusion? She had no strength to fight right now, she couldn't even walk right. Going to a battlefield might not be the smartest decision... But again, she didn't know if the beastmen were friendly...
Her only choice was go deeper into the forest, try to rest and recover her strength and only then, try to do something. Maybe go through the foxmen portal.

Using nearby trees as a support to prevent her from falling, Yasha got up and dragged herself away from the sounds of battle and the foxmen. She had to find a calm and relatively safe place to recover her forces... After that... Then she could think about revenge, IF Senna was still alive. If that demoness was still alive... Yasha would certainly kill her. She was marked. She had to pay for her sins...
