117 - [Voice]
Someone, we're - [Her voice is cut off by something that sounds almost electrical, the sound of pure energy, pure power, charging. She can almost be heard gritting her teeth and casting a barrier, but the roar of laughter that echoes all but drowns it all out.]
Naoto, you have to go back - go and -
[Once more, she's cute off, this time by a bolt and then the sound of communicator and the one holding it falling to the ground, the thud dulled by the wet earth. Footsteps are heard, light, running, and the sound of a blade whistling through air, ringing off armour, then again - and a wet smacking sound. Zelda chokes down a gasp and pulls herself up to her knees, then to a bent stand as she tries calling up some more magic.]
Naoto, get back!
[What follows is flames, the zip of another barrier being yanked into place from nothing - and then the sound of it shattering. There is little Zelda can do to stand up against pure power, after all.
And then not one, but two bodies crumpling, a groan of pain choked in their throats.]
