[So amidst all of the insanity? The kraken attack and the craziness? There is Minato making an oh-so necessary broadcast. He seems to be leaning against the side of a building, but despite the crashing of what must be tentacles and the panicked atmosphere, he looks pretty calm. Is that blood on his temple...? Oh maybe. And he might be holding his

[Hello, SEES daddy has been listening in.]

But he blinks, tucking the SFC away calmly enough at the sight of a familiar face.]
Yukari-chan?

[She goes to sit down next to him quickly.]
Sorry I took so long... [And then, to SEES daddy and SEES babby totally grown up elementary school kid, she picks up her SFC.] Guys, we're in an alleyway right before you get to the Middle District. It should be a left turn...
[Ken's been here longer than Akihiko has, hasn't he?]
K-Ken, could you lead him? I'll leave the line open to give any directions I can.
[She sets the SFC down in front of them so they can both talk to them if needed, and turns to Minato, trying to give him a look that says 'it'll be all right' while trying to assess his injuries.
It's...not as easy as it sounds. God, she hates seeing him like this.]

Hey. I'm sorry for worrying you. I'm alright.

You don't look all right... I'm gonna heal you again, okay?

I forgot to mention, we're near the welcoming committee, you guys--if that helps.
[And the gun-shaped Evoker draws closer to her head.
She waits a few moments, mentally preparing herself before firing, releasing Isis.
Diarahan--!]

[Ken takes a turn, leading Akihiko around some buildings to try to cut past some of the main streets and get there faster.]
It's not that far... we should be there soon.

I'm right behind you, Ken - just lead the way. [He trusts Yukari will be able to protect Minato until they arrive... But still. Considering how Minato looked, he had his doubts that a dia skill was going to help very much.]

Thank you.
[When Ken and Akihiko appear on the scene, he blinks, before tilting his head, perhaps somewhat sheepishly.]
Ah...It's not too serious.

[She does try to smile back when he notices his--but she can tell. She can tell by how pale he is, by that video broadcast, by the blood that's all over him--he's still in bad shape. And there's nothing she can do to change it...]
You should thank me when I've done something worth it. I...I can't believe this is the best I can do...
[A frustrated look at her Evoker. She's about ready to throw the damn thing, for all the good it's been doing her, but Akihiko and Ken showing up luckily derails that train of thought.
She feigns something of a smile, because everything else aside, she is grateful for the familiar faces.]

Hey - hold onto my shoulder if you can... Think you can walk?
[In the event he can't, Akihiko is prepared to carry him if he has to.]

He'll walk. That much he's determined to do. It'd be unfortunate if he were a burden on his team this early into the fight, huh?]
I can walk.
[So he merely shifts to hold onto Akihiko's shoulder, knowing that he can trust the other to support him as he does; he doesn't have to walk alone, after all. And then he turns to Yukari, shaking his head.]
No...I'm lucky that you all are here. So thank you.

...We should get somewhere safe.
[She does smile somewhat at being thanked, but is sure to keep her priorities in order. Minato would need to rest up, while they decide their next move.]
