[Shikamaru continues to work, his face contorted in a grimace as he forces his abused hands to keep moving.
He curses out loud as another false move brings another spray of acid, but he works through it, paying no mind to the blood and sweat dripping on to the table. His fingers move faster as the timer works its way down until suddenly... the timer stops.

The top of the box pops open with a loud click, and Shikamaru blinks in disbelief for only a moment before reaching inside and drawing out a key. The puzzle solved, he abandons it and rushes to the far wall, jamming the provided key into a small hole and pushing his way through the nearly-invisible door.]
[Temari probably should have reacted to having someone coming through the door, but she's not moving. Her free hand has an absolute death grip on the table while she keeps fighting to keep her hand in that damn box. Blood is running over the table from where she's jerked against the kunai.
Her eyes are screwed shut, her lip is bleeding from where she's bitten it, and it seems that she's not even aware that Shikamaru's come into the room.]
[He doesn't wait for an answer, that yell of her name the only warning she gets before Shikamaru runs forward, ignoring his own pain to grasp at her bleeding arm with one hand and yank the kunai out with the other.]
[There's a sharp cry when he yanks the kunai out and she pulls her injured arm to her chest out of reflex. The sudden end to the pain leaves her shaking in her chair, blinking away tears and trying to make her brain start to work again.]
[The demon watches for as long as he can. Pain is so wonderful to feel, especially if he's close enough. While he could in some way most likely bypass the trap, it is not Nii hurting her and thus he cannot save her. In a way he doesn't want to and wants to watch as long as he can]
