One, two, three- each time a Pageless was knocked back from the mochi, Robin's arrow pierced through them shortly after. The mission was going smoothly, but then Yuri made his entrance. Immediately apparent was that there was something very, [i]very[/i] wrong with Yuri today. The aura oozing around him- it wasn't the usual warmth of his grimoire. It was cold, heartless and empty, much like the Pageless they were fighting. Even worse; Yuri was going on a rampage. And he was [i]not[/i] helping the situation.

[color=#36A1FF]"Monarch, slow down!"[/color] Robin shouted towards her ally, but it fell on deaf ears. The Pageless, the humans, his teammates- everything in front of Yuri was just a nuisance. Robin had to watch as he started to turn the Pageless on her master. In fact, he was getting in the way of Robin's arrows. She tried to warn him: [color=#36A1FF]"I said- stop that!"[/color] she said, but then her voice started to trail off. [color=#36A1FF]"You'll get yourself... hurt..."[/color]

Robin's mind went blank for just a moment as she witnessed Yuri's butterflies take a hold of normal people and possess them. [color=#36A1FF]"Y-Yuri!"[/color] she yelled, completely disregarding his codename. [color=#36A1FF]"Stop that, Yuri! You're hurting those people-!"[/color] she yelled in vain. The boy wasn't listening. A new threat emerged and started sweeping aside Yuri's troops. Robin's legs moved on their own. Those humans would be unable to run in their zombie'd state and Robin knew this. She had to save them, in some way, no matter what. Strategy, tactics and her team be damned- she [i]needed[/i] to save those people!

[color=#36A1FF]"Watch out!"[/color] she yelled as she managed to tackle one, and only one human out of the way. She'd be much, much too late to save another. What's even worse is that Yuzu's tackle, though it got the human to safety (and seemed to have dispelled Yuri's curse), had caused Robin to lay prone. Her mind was panicked, flustered. Spread across her knees, she aimed her bow upwards at the giant's hand. Robin focused, as hard as she could, to gather as much magical energy as possible into her arrow.

[color=#36A1FF]"Please... please work!"[/color] she desperately begged, firing off a much larger-than-usual projectile, but it seemed far from enough to stop the hand from crashing down.
