Telepathic message, during the Awakened battle

We're not getting anywhere. These things aren't the real threat, and they're only going to keep coming.

Second round, pay attention.

If your username had a wheel, immediately look for people who are murdering these things with apparent experience. Keep finding more of them. Make sure a group can keep you safe. Stay away from the lockers.

If you had a pair of blades, find the people being most targeted and defend them. If these things get rid of us Navigators, you'll die easily.

Do that immediately.

And for everyone... We need to lure the true form of our enemy out. These rats are just meant to exhaust us.

If we can find a way to a larger area like the gymnasium, we should set up bait. Since these things want Navigators so badly, some of us should be what sets the trap.


[There's the sound of a mental sigh that whispers through everyone's minds.]

Unless anyone has any better ideas...

[He's quiet for a few moments, before speaking up.]

I'll be the bait.

Has a way past the mist been figured out yet? If so we need to coordinate our efforts there in order to funnel as many of us as quickly as possible out of this corridor.

[Volunteers willing to be bait are one thing, but...]

We can't let anyone play that part undefended.

Regarding the Navigators, I'll try to defend them as much as possible until the enemy reaches that location. Is that okay?

If were gonna set up bait, we need to prep traps.

Did _anyone_ bring anything useful this time. Spikes? Fire? We need to use the area we lure these bastards into to defeat em for us. I think most of the weaker fighters are pretty spent.

We need to save energy for whats coming.

The bait has to be sweet enough for the thing driving the rats. Splitting us in half won't work unless those being bait act weak or the Combatants are hiding.

[ Of all the times to have a convoluted discussion. Even worse that he recognized a fraction of these voices that spoke. All of which were debating on how to draw out the main objection (whatever that was). It was a little difficult to simply write it off as hallucination, especially when he engaged in this activity before he even reached the school.

There was some method to achieve this type of communication, and Heiji just hadn't figured it out yet, regardless, all this talking and fighting was giving him a headache.

You idiots are annoyin'!

How many separate debates are ya gonna have at a time like this? If ya still need a 'navigator', I can step in.


[ Heiji hadn't actually come to terms with it, not fully, but he was willing to do whatever it took to put an end to this ordeal. As fictitious as it was... ]

Healin' is preferred, correct? I have that...spell...

[ Not that he'd be able to use it until he was under pressure again, anyway (unbeknownst to him). ]

[The torrent of voices is overwhelming, disconcerting, and distracting. Already Ran's made two mistakes she shouldn't have, and it's cost her gashes to an arm and leg -- one from a rat, and one from a locker. Her gasp of pain is audible both physically and mentally.]

Stop. If we all start arguing with one another, we're taking attention off keeping each other safe in the first place.

[A breath of a pause.]

There has to be a different way than putting some of us in more danger, too.

[Although Alucard is more than capable of taking care of himself in his own world, it's become increasingly obvious that fighting solo is not the way to do anything here. Fighting takes up time. The only way is to fuse their group as a whole. So while he's hacking through rats, he's listening in the back of his mind.

He has to let himself be directed and Chikusa is someone who clearly knows how to arrange people together.

The only thing better than the gymnasium would be a sports field, but I surmise that in an open area, the rats won't take the bait. Do you need to be guard anyone or be anywhere while this baiting is going on?
