The gesture of trust wasn't lost on Hizuki. Internally, she marked this down for later; she'd have to return the favor, somehow. She didn't have many secrets, but nobody knew how her magic worked. Suki would soon, assuming that the lonely girl didn't just ignore her forever after the perceived betrayal of Haruna being Hizuki. Her reach was hesistant, and some incongruous part of her was acutely aware of putting her hand under another girl's clothes. [color=yellow]"Swear on my life,"[/color] she said, just a moment too late, in response to Kiyo's demand.

When Kiyo pushed her away, though, no more words were needed. Her wings flared bright, and a gate formed out of an azure shimmer before Daybreak flew straight through. Engines snapped into place and roared to life as Hizuki pursued at full speed. She split the evening skies in half for an instant before she was between the buildings, swerving in a wide enough arc to make the turn that the boosters mounted on her legs [i]should have[/i] scorched walls and potentially set buildings on fire. Fortunately for Hibusa, if Evil Eye's plans for the erstwhile savior had not come to fruition quite yet, and so all they felt was the gentle warmth of sunlight. 

[color=yellow]"LET HER GO!"[/color] she shouted after the fleeing GEM as Daybreak rapidly closed the distance. [color=yellow]"I won't let you take her away!"[/color]
