Lucca smiled as he caught sight of Ami. He stood, moving towards her as she continued to speak. "It's alright, it hasn't been more than a few minutes. A Jersey Devil? How odd," Lucca stated in thought. He nodded, wondering briefly about the creature. "Well, let's hope it doesn't mess with us then," Lucca stated with a smile and a small laugh. He moves to check the bullets in his gun, nodding his approval at the fully loaded weapon. He had four, five, possibly ten magazines on him in various locations, available from anywhere he might be, whether it be him laying down or standing up.
Casey jumped down from her tree, manipulating the wind to ease her landing. "Time to go isn't it?" She asks politely, putting her arm around Lucca like a big sister would. Lucca nodded, feeling jitters in his stomach. He was okay with fighting, but he really didn't like the danger part. He nods, moving forward with Casey at his side. She had a knife in her hand, making Lucca wonder where she'd gotten it. "Casey, where'd you get that knife? I didn't pack any for the trip..." Lucca stated, looking at her rather oddly. "Kenji gave it to me, said I might need it," She stated with a large smile. The two moved forward, Lucca swearing he'd have to have a chat with Kenji.
It was then that Lucca felt a large pull of shadows in the area, Alice had just performed some major use of shadows. There was thundering booms ringing through the forest too."Ami, something's going on. Something happened with Alice and Kenji that caused Alice to do something really, really big. This entire situation doesn't feel right," Lucca managed, looking around and feeling as if he was being watched for some reason.
There was a growl from behind and he turned to see a hellhound stalking Ami from behind, another two or three coming in from the surrounding woods, all heading for Ami, ignoring him for now. Kenji fired right over Ami's shoulder as the hellhound pounced, the bullets digging into the creatures chest. It fell, but only rolled to get up, Kenji's bullets weren't working. He managed a frustrated grumble, sheathing the gun then manipulating shadows to envelop his arms. He swung them like swords, the shadows not touching Ami, but slicing right at the hellhound on the other side causing the thing to split in half.
He heard another growl and turned to see hellhounds behind him as well, those focused on him. There was five now, all in all. He heard a whine and turned to see Casey on one, her knife dug into the creatures back and she sat on it like a horse. "Casey, be careful," Lucca cried, fearing for his demon. Casey barely spared him a moment as she jerked the knife, half of the creatures neck becoming disconnected from the body. Casey leaped off as the creature tried to crush her by rolling. Casey took the opportunity to sever the rest of the head then.
There was a terrible roar that rang out from somewhere a little far away. Lucca managed to decapitate a charging hellhound leaving four. That was when Lucca saw the big tornado raging over the forest and knew Kenji and Alice were extremely desperate, and in a very, very bad situation.
