Hikari Miko
Hikari couldn’t help but smile as the sight of her friend’s suitcase came into view. It had always been an amusing image, but also one that gave her plenty of hope for the battle’s positive outcome. In confident spirits, she wished Jin a silent blessing, then stepped into the fray.
The procession made its way further down the main street, leaving all the soldiers occupied with gunning down each layer of monstrosity as quickly as possible. A quick observation counted a total of 5 other exorcists on the field alongside them– excellent!
With this, the shinto maiden narrowed down her filter to assist those in need first and spotted a soldier nearby, fighting in defense of his two injured comrades. A number of monsters approached this courageous soul, but because he seemed to be a kind man, he would not suffer this day. And so, just as he had emptied his last magazine, the shambling corpse before him would find its neck pierced through with a long blade. It blinked twice before the sword rotated in its throat like greased lightning and was forced up– effectively splitting the fiend’s head in two. Blood spattered like a fountain from its exposed cross-section for a few seconds, and then its body fell to its knees before the shrine maiden.
"Please, they're still breathing!" The soldier huffed out, looping the arm of his fallen ally around his neck. He struggled to move quickly with the weight of another body, evident that he was injured himself. Hikari had quicky supported he and his other friend up, letting them both lean on her as she guided the literal support group back to safety. "Hup! Okay, altogether now– left, right! Left, right! Left, right!" Of course, teamwork eventually made the dream work. In time, the three wounded soldiers found safety by the border with promise of healing later on.
The procession only seemed to swell however, and so Hikari wasted no time in returning. A quick scan across the battlefield made one target stand out to her– a displeased brute against a fellow exorcist who swiftly felled two others. What brilliant work! It had proven to be the perfect opportunity for her as she found an opening from behind the unsuspecting fiend. In a moment, a flash of silver accompanied the audible slice of wind.
The shrine maiden flourished her sword, the bloodied silver effortlessly cleansed with a flick of the wrist, and then sheathed with a satisfying metallic hiss. A moment later, the vampire's cleanly-decapitated head slid off its trunk and hit the asphalt with a dense thud. The body followed limp soon after. Dipping slightly for a small bow, she smiled pleasantly at her fellow exorcist.
"Hi, good evening!"
