Steam billowed through the hall with a loud hiss. Grunting, Kaida re-condensed the water, putting in all her effort even as blisters erupted all over her arms.

Her hands and forearms seared in agony, but she couldn't spare any of the water to heal herself, not yet. As the flames died down, she spun round and redirected the stream, sniping a fireball out of the air. Unwilling to risk flying - wind would just fan the fire - she sprinted as close as was safe to the nearest burning wall and sent the deluge in its direction.

A glance over her shoulder revealed Natsumi and Kaeru were launching a dual assault on the Monster-class demon. Meanwhile, it was on her and Kazemi to keep the building from coming down on everyone's heads.
