[ And by the skin of his own teeth, Allen manages to avoid being body checked by the larger wolf ayakashi. Skidding to a stop, it whips around to face the tree they were in, jowls raising and a low, irritated growl cutting through the quiet of night.

...And just as fast, the hand around her will feel ice cold, a sort of stinging, tingling ache like being plunged into a frozen lake. And an overwhelming feeling:
Sudden, unbridled fear.
It's the only warning he'll get before a flash of bright light surges from the sword in his hand.
Bright. But not at all blinding to him. He can see just fine, surprisingly. Judging from the yelp that comes from the monster plummeting down at them, the ayakashi wasn't as lucky. ]
