"What?"
The manifestation of Kimiko's miracle - an intense tempest of energy rolling off her body in powerful waves - drowned out Kaede's incredulous exclamation, its roars resounding throughout the burning hallway that the students occupied. And as Yatsufusa rose from her psyche and into the world itself, the two monsters of flame took note, with one even stopping its assault upon the vulnerable Kagami to turn its attentions upon the priest's daughter.
For a single, tiny moment, nobody moved.
Then chaos broke loose.
The closest of the fire monsters, its humanoid, burning shape intensifying in seeming rage, rushed forth, burning hands reaching out for her face. A white-hot stream of flames came from a distance, bursting free of the second monster's maw as it moved its attentions away from the girl it once menaced for a second and onto the one with potential it could destroy.
And Kaede immediately burst into action, every other thought disappearing from his mind as he ran straight for Kagami (even if his body chilled with fear as he brushed carelessly against the outstretched hand of the masked figure) and hurriedly to her side.
"We don't have time for this!" he cried in a mix of fear and frustration, grabbing at her arms and trying to pull her up. "You need to get away!"
His eyes glanced around wildly for the final monster, but the masked student was already walking away, moving further into the distance. Away from them. Heading in the same direction as the monsters that had carried away Alex.
Conflict fell over his face. He couldn't decide whether to chase after that creature or stay with Kagami. To try and get her further away from the monsters or to pursue the monster that now wore the body of a student.
The latter won.
"Damnit," he could only mutter only his breath. "Come on get up, we need to-"
The creature of flames closest to them had launched its attack on Kimiko from a distance in a single moment, but now its attentions were once more turned upon Kagami - and now Kaede.
He didn't need to think.
He threw himself in front of the nervous wreck of a girl, and the flames slammed right into his body.
Kaede Yamamoto bellowed in pain.
But he wouldn't budge. His arms were held in front of him. They were peeling away as the heat grew. Golden light boiling his skin. Impossible pain as nerves melted. It hurt. He wanted to run.
But he wouldn't. Not when Kagami was behind him. Even if hurt.

of course it hurts, you're not invincible, you're not a superhero
