Magic Knights Revolution

"Well, at the very least we'd be able to run away from them." Fuu added her own two cents to Umi's statement.

"It's very hard to run away from a speeding bullet."

[Bean Bandit]

Umi nodded, scowling.

"Or that smart mouth of hers," She agreed, then looked around. "...where are we?"

Fuu sighed, and looked at Umi pleadingly.

"Please Umi-san, we can't antagonize that girl needlessly. For the moment she's the one in the position of power."

Taking in their surroundings, she sighed.

"The cavern still extends a while. We'll supposedly enter Presea-san's castle soon."

[Bean Bandit]

Umi blinked and sighed.

"Allright. I'll try my best. But if she starts bragging about how wonderful she is..."Umi just looked disgusted.

"Well, lets get going. The faster we do what Clef wants, the faster we can go home!"

So saying, she began to jog down the hall.

[Shukuen]

Hikaru blinked, then began following at a quicker pace. "Come on, Fuu-san. It shouldn't be much farther."

"Alright. Sounds like a good enough plan, I suppose." Fuu shrugged before following after her two fellow Knights.

[RyderHakubi]

Firia hadn't missed any of the conversation... No, she simply was reconsidering her feelings towards the Knights.  They couldn't seem to understand that she too had a loved one that she wanted to find quickly...

Let's try to open it, okay?" she called to the others, groping the walls blindly, trying to find the door. Feeling the cold handles and the small crack between the doors, she pushed as hard as she could, budging the door very slightly.

"Okay." Fuu softly said as she joined the faint outline that had to be Hikaru in pushing the door open, adding her own strength to the smaller girl's efforts.

[Bean Bandit]

"I'll help."

Umi moved over to the other girls, and began pushing with them, adding her own efforts...

[RyderHakubi]

"Girls, let me..." Firia recommended, as her shoes turned into combat boots...

[Bean Bandit]

Umi blinked back at Firia, and then down at her boots. She gently taped on Fuu's shoulder and indicated the hologram, stepping back.

[Anonymous]

"Um...okay." Fuu quickly stepped away from the hologram girl's path, and moved next to Umi.

"I really hope she doesn't destroy it, like I think she will."

[RyderHakubi]

Firia nodded as the girls stepped back... Got into her battle position... Charged the door...

And went right through it to the other side.

The door opened with a click...

[Anonymous]

A few moments passed in silence.

...

Fuu blinked a few times before closing her slightly parted mouth, and began to pray that no one had seen her in the gloom.

She was a hologram...why didn't it click into place before.

Sighing, she walked up to the door and shoved it opened.

Walking in she was greeted with the sight of a...
