(Alrighty.)

Marina never saw the Beowolf, mostly because she was too busy paying attention to the nine-tailed fox that she thought was coming towards their position. In Marina's defense, the Beowolf was being unusually stealthy. It was stealthy enough to get up behind Vi and slam her against a lamppost, her head colliding with the metal in a sickening clang. The Beowolf threw her away before advancing on Marina, roaring loudly and going as fast as it could.

It was at this particular moment that Marina deftly turned around and slammed her rifle-sword into its head just as it lunged at her. It was stunned for the briefest of moments, which was more than enough time for Marina to press the barrel of her rifle against the Beowolf 's temple and blow its head off. Immediately, she dashed over to Vi's body. She checked her pulse, praying that she was still alive. Thankfully, she was, but there was no way she'd be in any shape to fight at this point.

"She's alive," Marina said to Heart. Then, a thundering bark came from across the plaza.

"Although, to be fair," Marina interjected, popping the expended shell from out of her rifle, "With that thing around, that might not be the case too long. For any of us. Take up defensive positions."

Marina dragged Vi quickly out of the combat zone before returning to her previous point of cover, carrying Vi's rifle in tow. Hey, you never know if it might come in handy, especially at a time like this.
