Honestly Maya should’ve expected this from an all out fight. There were a lot more vampires than she’d expected, some were fucking full on bat creatures flying in the sky and there was fire everywhere. She’d managed to hit one dude in the knees before she’d had to direct a blast of sound at him to push him away after he’d retaliated with a strong hit to her side, knocking her over. The resultant knock back had pushed her further away from the fight, something she was glad for. 

She’d really overestimated her ability to fight in any way without her abstraction, which would risk causing more damage than Kayla would be happy with. But it was hard to beat people with a bat when the wielder was 5’2” and weak as shit. 

Her hearing was just beginning to come back when Kayla shouted for all of them to get out of there. She was pretty sure that was gunshots she was hearing. She didn’t need to be told twice. 

She ran off in the direction she’d come in, glad to reach her car and get out of there.

By the time Maya turned up to their meeting spot nearly everyone else had already gathered. She’d taken the time to pull a pastel blue dress she’d left in her car over the clothes she was already wearing, nicely covering the forming and rather nasty bruise on her side. She’d then waited a bit longer for her hearing to properly come back. She wasn’t exactly in a rush to meet all the others with her ears still ringing and her head spinning (the fact she’d driven a little bit away was an honest miracle).

Entering the place she noticed that everyone was looking various degrees of shit. Sin certainly seemed the worst off, almost as if she’d just woken up. Maya gave everyone a silent nod before going up to order the largest ice cream she could see on the menu. Once she got it she went back to sit with the group, plopping down and digging into her ice cream. Her lips twisted into a slight grimace from the grating feeling of people talking after such loud ringings in her ears, even as she tried to ignore it. This was why she tried to spend time in silence after using her ability. Still she forced herself to look at the other and add to a conversation she’d barely taken part in.

“Is Kayla not here yet? I get gathering to debrief and all but,” she glanced at Sin, “I feel like some of us could do with going home to recover soon.”
