As the horde approaches, Mili begins to attempt to get free, likely in an attempt to run away. Pirila, meanwhile, really feels like running would be the best idea. After all, nobody likes being trampled.

But then, Cuna fires his weapon, shrinking the incoming horde and rendering the beasts harmless as they run between the group.

"...Well, that was... interesting..." Pirila says, watching the horde run past before turning her attention to Mili. "And I see you've woken up! Are you alright?" She asks, smiling.

Mili, however, does not smile. "...why?" She simply asks, looking both scared and upset. "...why did you punch me?"

This brings a frown to Pirila's face. After all, she had done no such thing. "I didn't punch you? Did you have a nightmare?"

"No!" Mili snaps, trying to get free. "You said my blood was tasty and punched me!"

"What are you talking about?" Pirila responds, putting Mili down on the ground. "You were unconscious the entire time I've been with you after we rescued you."

Hida sighs as the Bandit resumes shouting nonsense and making empty threats. Soon, though, they appear to be attempting to follow up on their threats.

As Cas is pinned to the ground the leader of the ground moves in and throws a punch at Hida, likely attempting to knock her out.

Unfortunately for him though, Hida simply side-steps the punch. Now with the bandit in range, one could easily expect her to attempt to do the same and punch the Bandit.

Instead, however, she grabs his arm, and with a grin on her face, she simply states "I don't like the way you're talking, how about we shut that useless mouth of yours. And while we're at it, I'd rather you not look at me anymore."

As she speaks, Hida's magic begins to do it's work as the unfortunate Bandit's skin begins growing under Hida's control, sealing shut his mouth and eyes, preventing him from opening them again.

"There, much better." She responds as she lets go of the Bandit and gives him a shove, hoping to push him to the ground for all to see.
