The crab was dead, but more were on the horizon, and Akiko backpedaled towards the rest of the group before realizing something about these beasts. Something she learned in her biology class ages ago, back when she wasn't in this crazy Tower. Thankfully, she wasn't paying off her loans, so things were much better up here somehow. [color=hotpink]"Someone wanna find our way out of this jam?"[/color] Akiko's hands thrust forward to grab hold of another crab, the beast staggering for a moment before it slid backwards in the waters. It worked! Crabs basically lived with their blood suspending their organs, so she could shake them up and send them backwards with a solid push. The beast was stunned, and hopefully it'd be deterred from trying to get any closer. Though, something told her it wouldn't be that easy. [color=hotpink]"Okay, this isn't gonna work that easily. Castle, keep that going, I've got another idea."[/color] [color=red][ Are you sure you won't be overdoing it? ][/color] [color=hotpink]"Nope, but we're not with a ton of options here. Might as well try!"[/color[ Akiko handed her Stand the Red Relic, the apparition taking it and continuing to do just what it's user requested. Akiko herself meanwhile manifested the Purple Relic from her Lorelai card, winding up a powerful breeze and sending a wave across the water to hopefully keep the beasts at bay a little more. [color=hotpink]"Wow, didn't think I could handle 2 relics at once. Must be getting good at this."[/color] She felt a little proud before she stepped back a little further. [color=hotpink]"But we're still on the defensive. Bastion, any ideas?"[/color] She asked to her new friend, hoping she'd be a little more willing to work with her rather than the JSTR-touched Kanbaru. Speaking of her... [color=hotpink]"Make waves, Kanbaru, or do something to take them out! Either one's fine!!!"[/color]
