[b]Attempting to rescue a dummy in Zone 5[/b]

Mari blushed suddenly, realizing her faux pas. She had no intention of stealing her fellow test-takers' points, but the cat's arguments were valid. [color=ffff00]"I...I..."[/color] Mari stuttered, finally, FINALLY, at a loss for words. And while some of Minami's statements were infuriating, Mari could only focus on her own mistake, though Houki softened the blow somewhat. After stating that they'll only help each other if necessary, Minami and Houki left to rescue civilians on their own, leaving Mari with Kaito, who was offering her a boost.

Somewhat deflated, Mari turned to Kaito, [color=ffff00]"Sure, I could really use a boost right now."[/color] Not knowing what to expect, Mari reached out her hand. Unsure whether a simple high-five would suffice for the quirk to activate, Mari chose to clasp hands with Kaito.

A surge of power went through Mari's body as a faint, smooth purring emanated from her chest, something she had never noticed before. [color=ffff00]"This...this is amazing!"[/color] She called out, [color=fff200]"Th-thank you!"[/color] This was the best thing that has happened to her all day! Looking around, she noticed there were an abundance of dummy civilians, but they were all trapped under debris. She headed to one trapped under a car. Even if she had twice her strength, she couldn't dead-lift a car by herself, but she had another plan, and this car would be her test subject. Getting some distance on the car, Mari took a deep breath, before dashing at the car, getting up to 60 miles-per-hour. She expected lightning to blast out of her shoulders at this point, and was planning to slow before actually reaching the car so that she didn't electrocute the dummy, yet no lightning came out, puzzling Mari. Still, she decided to roll with the punches, and kept her speed up. When she reached the car, she slowed enough to pivot her body and aim a kick at the underside of the car, hoping to get it to roll off the dummy. If it did not roll off completely, she would quickly try to take advantage of the momentum, and aid it all the way off the dummy. If the dummy were freed, she would proceed to fireman carry the civilian, and race back to the bus. She just hoped that the treatment wasn't too rough, since she still held on to the belief that they were being graded on 'bedside manners'.
