[hr][h3]Itsuki[/h3][hr] Whatever response that Itsuki might have had to Hana's words died in his throat as she was suddenly launched passed him by the force of the Investogator's blade, the blood from her wound splattering across his face as he stood in silent shock. The moment quickly passed, however, as the shock was soon replaced with an all consuming rage and blood lust. The luminous white of his Kakugan seemed to burn in the low light of the room as the sounds of his Kagune twisting and shifting filled the air. As his mind started to succumb to the primal and savage instincts of his Kajuka side, he could only choke out a single, guterral word to Takumi, sparing him a split-second glance as he did so. [b]"GO!"[/b] After that, Itsuki stopped holding back the change that had begun, his kagune suddenly springing to life as chitinous growths began to force their way up his back and onto his arms, chest, and head. With a roar of maddened rage, Itsuki charged forward with all six of his kagune launching ahead of him in an attempt to crush the investigators within the door. With a chuckle, the investigators leaped backward into the hallway, aiming to lead the Kakuja into a wall of gunfire from the forces that waited outside. The hallway filled with the sound of gunfire as they barraged the entrance to the room. However, instead of trying to stop or trying to retreat, Itsuki simply wrapped his Kagune infront of him as a sort of faux shield, blocking most of the gunfire as he continued his charge, smacking straight into the crowd of investigators. Kagune unfurled to reap a bloody harvest from the doves before him, the lower ranking investigators never standing a chance as he lashed out in a fury driven rage, his Kakuja mask and armor fully formed as he went about ripping into his foes with wild abandon. However, before he could move on, he was suddenly set upon by the Kokaku wielder, barely able to divert the blade away from him into the floor. Seeing an opening, Itsuki launched himself forward in an effort to bite down on the dove's face, only to be suddenly dragged back as one of the other lashed out with their quinque, a whip-like instrument that likely would've taken his head if not for the armor around his neck. With a growl, Itsuki turned on her, sweeping his Kagune wildly around him to both knock back the Kokaku user as well as tangle it up in her Quinque, the clawed appendages near the end holding it tight to slacken it's hold on his neck. As soon as Itsuki was able to pull it off him, however, he was too be beset by another wave of gunfire, the remaining lower rank doves having recovered from his intial assault. Once again forced on the retreat, Itsuki backed up a tad, before launching into another bullrush, the Kokaku using dove rushing to meet him. While Itsuki was giving the good fight, it was clear that it was too much for him too accomplish alone, as the combined force of the doves and confined nature of their surroundings left him at a great disadvantage. If left to fight this battle on his own, the chances of death were nigh certain.
