Out of everything that could have been hidden in that box, some weird guy was not Jack's first guess. Nor her second. It might have been her third if she thought that far ahead. She blinked at the cape and helmet wearing figure in surprise, at least until it started letting out some spores or particles or whatever it was doing. She could tell from both Rika and Bionca's wildly different reactions that it wasn't just harmless dust. 

[color=gold]"The fuck? There's a little alien monster abducting a poor defenseless girl!"[/color]

Which wasn't true, even without the ability to inflict harm as an esper Rika was not defenseless. No clue if she was poor though. Still, Jack shouted it for the benefit of the other espers on the beach, who if they weren't aware of what was going on already then they would be soon as Alice came up and then swapped places with the invader and his attempted kidnapee. And where had the suspicious guy come from? That's right, the box of beach balls that Dan had provided!

[color=gold]"Damn shark was planning something nasty after all!"[/color]

Daggernose was gonna get what was coming to him one way or another, but the purple monster and the literal alien-like craft coming down seemed like more pressing matters. Jack ignored Alice's order to secure the area around the table - the woman wasn't her damn boss, plus there were already plenty of other espers around to do it. She left the area (and the purple monster) to those others, bolting towards the ocean. Briefly she passed Ashley, the first of those to act, and said, [color=gold]"you got her?"[/color]

But as she didn't linger to help if the answer turned out to be [i]no[/i], it was less a genuine question and more a hopeful vouch, confirming she could leave the girl's safety in Ashley's hands. Of course, Rika was doing her best to help herself too. Between the two of them, and everyone else still gathered up, things would probably be alright on the beach. Which was good, because Jack wasn't keen on changing her game plan.

[color=gold]"I'm gonna make sure that ship isn't gonna be taking off after daring to touch down in my city!"[/color] she shouted, which was alert number two for the unaware that not only was there a little bug-looking spore-spewing purple alien dude, there was also the space ship he probably came on in the first place. Alice had a head start on her, but Jack didn't waste a spell to catch up. It would not be long until her legs got her there just fine, though she did almost trip when she pulled her instrument and had a momentary brain lapse when remembered the spell still on the city upon seeing its beautiful form reduced to a toy. Ah, but the no harm rule only counted for living things. Even this plastic weapon could deal some damage to a ship, inside or out, and Jack was very much looking forward to it.
