[color=ed1c24]"I'm not... Panicking! It's the beast, he was surprised by the light!"[/color] Arachne's voice visibly strained as she tried to reel the Black Beast back. She also heard the girl's word about this being an illusion, but was actively disbelieving it all it took? She supposed that if she didn't know it was an illusion, Arachne would have never thought to "disbelieve" it, but it seemed like a stretch. She tried to not believe in the darkness around her, though her mind was somewhat distracted by reigning in the Black Beast.

[color=ed1c24]"Calm down dammit, it was just a flash!"[/color] Arachne shouted at the Black Beast as it continued to lash out. Fortunately Arachne had kept the beast back from any students, but she was still blinded by the darkness around her. She was just too preoccupied to simple disbelieve in the illusion. Only suddenly, everything went back to normal. Arachne could see her fellow students, her surroundings, and more importantly she could see where the Black Beast was. Mustering as much control as she could, she created a boney appendage that reached out and tore the mask off the Black Beast. This was all she needed to force the monster back inside of her as she fell to the ground with a thud.
