Brick and mortar crumbled with negligent ease that oh so mirrored Roche's fragmented composure. None of them had been spared violation at the hands of Michi and there were others who had suffered far worse and far more pointed violations. There was a splinter of her that wished she'd stayed to check upon Shuuko. To see if Tsubomi would awaken. To join in the vitriol flowing towards Black Gate for her ruinous gift. 

But if she'd stayed a moment longer her hands would have found a Magical Girl in anger, and it would be infinitely worse then her split with Suki.

Earthshaker snarled with a beast's lumbering posture, fingers curled with a desire to rend into a Miseria without the guilt that came from a substantial victim. From someone that mattered, that would see her judged. Someone who if she laid a hand upon in anger would see Roche stripped and left in the cold, made all the lesser for the instant bereft of composure. 

Instead the school shook heavily, and the Rulekeeper was treated to the sight of a wing of the school pulverized under the advance of a colossal stuffed monkey. It was far better defined then the nightmare apes, but that hardly seemed of consequence. 

The Giga Miseria had at least begun at the city's edge and it's lumbering steps had only shattered roads and the windows of storefronts. Yet so soon after Michi had robbed them of their deepest secrets and defiled their desires, she had in but a single stroke robbed them of their homes. Were the GEMS present they would have applauded the effort that they themselves had only obtained from for lack of time. 

It was right there in front of her, arm plunged through the roof and scraping away the ceiling of the club with all the difficulty of an aged scab. Michi rose, nestled against it's cheeks and ordered it to crush the cafeteria. 

Yes, the students were in the cafeteria, too asleep to run. Did that mean there were no teachers and students crushed simply by the wading of the ape? Did it matter?

Rei had threatened Roche with the certainty that murder would twist them into something nightmarish, but if Michi was acting so openly? 

A weight fell from Earthshaker's shoulders. After all, whose to say they weren't still in a dream? Whose to say Rei hadn't lied to her to maintain control? Ashbringer and her Cabal were still coming. The GEMS were still circling them, waiting for a moment to strike. Everything was braying for the destruction of the Club, and now their very school was disintegrating beneath animated felt and cotton. 

Hizuki and Nyxia were *fast*, but Roche had already been on the roof. She'd already transformed and was limbered for violence. They struck for center mass, a laser seeking to burn through while the heroine sought to stop it outright. 

Earthshaker blasted off the crumbling ceiling and manifested her shield, holding it forward like the tip of a spear as she blurred towards Michi in the ape's hand.
