Their screams of despair could be heard all over the battlefield as everyone stared in shock where their two friends had vanished. Seiji finally came to his senses and was able to push himself up, despite the blinding pain shooting through his body. His eyes glinted with anger as he started moving towards the demon. He was about to attack, but the demon was quick to shoot a counter attack at him first.
The attack, however, never got to him. He stared in shock as the body of a woman fell back, landing in his arms. Lei Meilin laid lifeless, causing Seiji's heart to stop. He was shaking as he backed up, pulling her along to the side of the battle field. He never expected her to jump in. He didn't even know why she was there. Why would she take an attack out of nowhere like that. Just for him.
