[h3][color=ffdd99]Maeda Hitomi[/color][/h3][/center]


As Hitomi started running towards the nurse's office with the innate speed of prey who know they're being hunted, the immediate danger was wearing off, and she had a little time to reflect on what she'd just done. Kissing Acion's cheek...Hitomi had never kissed anybody before that she wasn't related to. She imagined her first kiss would be a little less...automatic. At the very least, she imagined there would be a mutual understanding of the kiss, followed by a deliberate kiss. But back then, she hadn't even thought about it. It was like her body acted on its own while her brain was in panic mode. What did this mean? She'd have to think about thi more. Or discuss it with Acion later...

It was at that moment when her Sheep Sense went crazy. Nomoe was chasing after her with clawed hands, and on all fours. Both of these actions made her seem much more predatory, and thus, Hitomi could sense her much more accurately. This had the downside of terrifying Hitomi's instincts, but her brain was holding the tide. Nomoe may not like Hitomi, but she is very protective of Tomoe, and whilst she was in Hitomi's arms, and hurt, hopefully wouldn't do anything too crazy....right?

Without even needing to turn round or look behind her, Hitomi sensed exactly when Nomoe was about to strike at her legs, and leapt up into the air, clearing the dangerous space, while Acion caught up and retaliated using his wings. [color=ffdd99]"We're just trying to help Tomoe!"[/color] Hitomi shouted out as she carried on running. [color=ffdd99]"She hurt her head, and we're taking her to the nurse's office. We are not your enemies!"[/color]
