Round 1.

Environmental catastrophes. Coordinated mayhem. Tokyo had been met with many great dangers lately, which only accelerated its need for protectors. As a response to these circumstances, a challenge was hosted for the hero hopefuls of UAU, to test their abilities in handling any situation. Several support majors and gear industries were called upon to craft their creations for the event as well, to not only showcase the ingenuity of their inventions, but the ingenuity - and perhaps bravery - of the participants who will utilize the experimental equipment.

Each student would be given a device that displays a list of gear assigned to them, which could be selected to materialize before them to use. With the sheer amount of gear available, no one was expected to physically carry them all.

Once everyone received their devices and assigned items, they would be led into a room, if it could even be called that. It was less like a room and more like a white void, the doors only sliding closed to emphasize the emptiness once the last student went through. The only things everyone would see are each other and a digital clock projected on the floor, counting down the seconds.

There was also a tingling sensation in the air. Not enough to be oppressive, but enough to clue many in on the fact that some kind of field was at work. Totally unrelated to the fact that any attempt at using one's Quirk would fail.

This discovery would be short-lived as the timer reached zero and the scenery shifted.

---

The group would find themselves in an aisle in a toy store. It was a massive one frankly, where it might've been more accurate to call it a mall full of toys than just a store, but it was a toy store nonetheless. Anything with eyes - the dolls, plushies, squeaky toys - seem to all be directed at the students though. Creepy.

Claps eventually began to ring. Starting far away then growing louder and louder until...



The students came face to face with a wind-up cymbal monkey. Its face was unsettling but it was a tiny thing, not even a foot tall. What could it do against a slew of individuals training to be heroes really?

It raised its arms in the air. Clapped its cymbals some more. Which maybe would've been fine if it weren't for the fact that its mouth started moving and - more concerning - its cymbals started glowing. "OOH OOH AH AH AH AH!!!!" A ball of energy formed above its instruments, much larger than the toy was, and it threw it on the ground. A hole was formed as a result of the blast.

As the monkey prepared its next attack, there was a voice, not from the toy but from somewhere overhead. "Greetings students, and welcome to your challenge. You need only to escape this location you've found yourselves in." The orb was bigger than the first attempt. The voice only laughed, low and deep. "I suggest you start moving. Good luck. Plus Ultra and all."

The monkey threw its energy at the students as toys tumbled out of their shelves.

[junsuina]

[attr="class","bmsk"] in blackest night... The space that they had been led to was odd to Jun, but she wasn't going to question it. What she was going to question were the people she had been partnered with. Farrin was someone she wasn't fond of. Could she work with him? Absolutely. She didn't like it, but could work with it. And then there was Hikari. It was like the school was forcing her to work with all the people she didn't want anything to do with. At least in Farrin's case she could coordinate attacks and strategies with, she was doubtful she could do anything impactful with Hikari around. The other students, Kenta and Kaito, she didn't know much about. She was sure she had seen them around, but nothing of substance was known about them. She hoped that they were at least agreeable enough to make it through the exercise. Letting out a sigh, she pulled up the menu to see what exactly she had available to her. That and to familiarize herself with the system. Which...yeah, this seemed video game-y enough. But how did the items materialize, exactly? Curious, Jun pressed one of the items, realizing too late that it said "Car Door". What exactly did that mean? Well, right after she selected it a car door emerged from the aether right in front of her, floating momentarily before falling to the ground. And then it'd start to fall over. She panic grabbed it, blinking as she looked the thing over. "...Really? Is this thing even bullet proof???" She hefted the thing up, sighing and then realizing the room was changing. Aaaaaand she had seen enough anime to know that a room like this was a bad setup. Even more so when the monkey showed up. And then the energy ball. "Yeah...yeah, we should run. Now. I'll...take up rear I guess? Just start running!" She hefted the car door up, thankful that whoever made it made the grip a little bit easier...she was still uncertain just how useful this was going to be, but something did tell her that it was going to be a pain to lug around. Farrin hikari Kaito Tanaka Muruyama Kenta TL;DR: -Deploying "Car Door" early for memes -Telling others to run while she takes rear guard action

ell, it wasn't all bad news. A mixed bag is what Farrin was working with. Pros and cons as far as the eye could see. Pros: Kenta was here. Farrin and Kenta went back to their days in Hero Prep. Big mark on the pros list. Another pro. Farrin had an item called Crown of the Fae. How he might use it was a mystery, but it certainly belonged on the pros list. Cons: Nova Luna. A wild card at best. A nuisance likely to tear the team apart at worst. Another con. No quirks. Without his Chronokinetic adrenaline shot, Farrin's legs were putty, constantly exhausted by his time-turned efforts. Ironically, he was likely to be the slow one this time around. Then there was both Jun and another student he hadn't recognized. Jun was capable but moody. Her Mood Ring alias was on the mark. She could land on either list. Same deal with the unknown student. It could go either way. 

"Alright, that's disturbin'," he said, eyeing the monkeys and the hole in the simulation room.

The energy shot was par for the course, but why did it have to be toys and lifeless, beady eyes? Soulless, daring to steal those of the students. It wasn't natural. And it was downright creepy. 

The opening shots were fired, the rules explained, and Mood Ring jumped into action. Farrin didn't need to await instructions. He slugged three aisles over at slow-mo Joe speeds. This was embarrassing. "C'mon then, e'eryone get a move on, but keep some distance between each other! If those shots get any larger, we dun' want 'em takin' several o' us out at once," He shouted, his body feeling as though it were ten times its weight. Why was there no quirk usage allowed... 

His fingers danced through the digital menu and landed on the grenades. "Stay away from 'em, I've tear gas. Might blind 'em," he called out, arming himself with two grenades and tossing them toward the center aisle where the largest number of toys gathered. He still had his strength and one hell of a throwing arm, so there would be plenty of distance between them and the grenades - which would hopefully offer safety enough. If the toys were blinded, they might move a little more freely. If not, at least Farrin knew the tactic wouldn't work later. 

---

-Farrin is moving three aisles over from the center aisle where they started and threw two tear gas grenades to try blinding the toys via smokescreen.

[Muruyama Kenta]

Kenta was feeling pretty right about the situation. Luck of the draw pulled Farrin and himself into one team so that was always something to make things smoother. He didn’t know the other people that well…but he remembered Farrin mentioning Jun could help him with developing his quirk, so this was a good place to exchange hello’s and maybe ask for help. Though she and his friend had some beef… he hoped Jun wouldn’t be the type of person to judge someone based on their friends. And maybe there could be a way to smooth things over between them?

Social stuff would need to wait Tho, right now they were getting ready for the exercise, in the middle of a…room? With how big the white area seemed it almost felt more like a hangar…they had some time to prepare their gear. Thankfully most of his stuff was pretty compact. The biggest thing was the drone, though it came with a harness that let him carry it on his back, and the pointer thing fit well in his hand. That was the only real offensive thing he had, his other items were more like limited bursts of power. Man…doing stuff without his quirk was going to be weird. His musing was interrupted as Jun deployed one of her items…a Car Door. A Car Door?


“Well it looks like you can at least ram it into someone” he commented as she deployed the item before the room started to shift before their eyes. Even more UA technology at work. The place started to look like…a giant toy aisle. And its mighty guardian, the Monke. He was about to question the design choice of their enemy but the fact it was charging an energy blast made him focus on dodging.
Battle plans forming quickly, Jun was at the rear as they moved forward. He moved towards Farrin, seeing him run at a much slower pace than they were used to… Kenta knew his friends' quirk did a number on his body, but he never truly apricated how much “I know how this looks but I swear this will make it easier” he called out to Farrin while pulling out one of the Fast and Curious stickers he had, and would give his friend a gentle tap on the forehead to apply it to him. These things helped you move faster, so he hoped it would help his friend. He then ran ahead, putting his natural cardio to good use. As he ran forward he would try and start to climb up one of the many isles with his free running ability, trying to gain some high ground and see if there was an exit they should be looking for.

TLDR – Kenta Ran past Farrin and applied a Fast and the Curious sticker to his forehead as per instruction (+1 Rank if speed and Awareness for 1 round)
Runs forward and tries to climb up one of the isles for a better vantage point, looking for a way out.

It was time for the school’s event. Kaito had registered for it. He wanted to experience all the cool stuff with being a student at U.A.U and this was one of them. He also believed that there were rewards given if someone did well in it and that was enough reason for him to jump at the opportunity.[break][break]

On the day of the event, he jumped out of bed early and made sure he had a solid breakfast. That was something he loved about U.A.U. He was able to have solid breakfasts and have enough things that he didn’t have to go hungry. His childhood would have loved to have breakfast everyday even though that wasn’t his reality. Now that he could, he did and he wouldn’t take the ability to have that for granted.[break][break]

Once he had gone to the area he was supposed to go, he was given a device that supposedly had gear on it for him to use. He was excited to try that out when the time was right. Maybe, he would get some ideas to help with his own personal gear for the future.[break][break]

Once he was led to the void room, he looked around at the other students with him. He hadn’t formally met any of them. He knew them from seeing them around campus. He could only hope that they would all be able to work well together. Well, time would certainly tell.[break][break]

Aside from the others there, there was a clock on the floor ticking down the seconds before their particular event would begin. He took a deep breath and tried to get psyched up and focused for this. He watched the clock tick down until it hit zero.[break][break]

The scene changed and they were now in an aisle in what looked to be a massive toy store. He never really got the chance to explore a toy store before so the scenery of being in one was mesmerizing. That wasn’t to say that he didn’t have toys growing up but he just never got to explore a store full of them. As he looked around in awe, his attention was grabbed by claps and the toy that was making such. It was a wind-up cymbal monkey. Who wound it up for it to be keeping noise?[break][break]

The monkey raised its arm on its own and started clapping and the mouth started moving as it glowed. This thing was officially really creepy. It started hooting and energy began forming above its instruments which it used to create a hole in the ground. That thing was powerful.[break][break]

Right when Kaito was about to take off, he heard a voice speaking to them briefing them on what they needed to do. Junsuina, who had a car door equipped, told the others to run while she took up the rear. Kaito had no arguments with that and started taking off. As they all were running, Kaito wondered what gear he had so he opened the menu. He had a Swirly Whirly Scepter, a Geyser Shot and a Northern Whale Path. Just how could he utilize them here? Well, he just had to wait for a better opportune time.

yeah, this whole thing is like, uber ridiculous.[break][break]

hikari only ever joined uau cuz she wanted to get famous as hell, and yet here she is, signed up for events and things that simply don't matter in the long run of things. there's no cameras she can see, she has to ruin her beautiful, incredible hair in the process of her action shots, and she has to work with this goddamn peanut gallery of a team. two losers she doesn't recognize, one with white hair and one with black, and then two losers she definitely recognizes. first of all, whats-his-face from the beach who likes to act all high and mighty as if he's god's great gift to the earth, and jun, the crowning queen of losers. really, it's impressive how much of a loser she is. while hikari doesn't really care about winning or doing well here, she certainly does care about making fun of jun in the process. and, hey, lucky for her, jun's already done something that is worthy of making fun of her![break][break]

hikari's already running from the massive cymbal monkey before jun even gives the order too, cowardly as the redhead is, but she takes the time to glance over her shoulder to find jun wielding... a car door at the thing! that's absolutely hilarious, and hikari wastes no time in showing her distaste for the other girl. "hahahah!!! a car door!" she shouts over the chaos of the toy department store, running amongst the ranks of her other teammates. "great! useless as always, jun!"[break][break]

luckily for hikari, one of her gear items seems to always have something useful in store for her, something she would no doubt brag about in a few moment's time. running through her holographic item selection screen with one perfectly manicured finger, hikari selects her just-in-case briefcase, which materializes into her arms within nanoseconds. with a wide, model smile stretched across her face, hikari opens the briefcase mid-sprint, allowing the golden light of a random item to bask across her face. what's inside?! what's inside?![break][break]

Round 2.

Jun bore the brunt of the energy ball with her makeshift shield and, surprisingly enough, would've absorbed much of the damage. As it's not the best shield around however (what else did you expect much from a car door?) it didn't absorb much of the force. As a result, Jun would find herself flying, carried forward by the blast she caught. If this were a race, she made quite a bit of headway!

The toys Farrin lobbed his grenades at took a direct hit. Gas escaped the containers, and any plush that ran out of the smoke bomb would be seen running in all directions and even into the shelves instead. Needless to say, they're pretty disoriented. Farrin would even feel himself gain a bit of his speed back once Kenta stuck that sticker on his forehead. He won't be in his prime, but at least he won't be left behind.

Kenta's climb to the top of the shelf would give him a good view of what lied ahead. Way off in the distance was one single door. Also in the distance was several more aisles. Who knew what else they'd be met with on the way there.

And the aisles weren't the only thing to worry about. Kenta would be the first to hear it, but the rest would follow suit: a fleet of plastic airplanes could be heard and seen flying down from the high ceiling. With their targets locked on the group, bullets rained from each, not meant to penetrate but they were going to hurt.



Not all may be lost though. Hikari would procure a remote controller from her briefcase mid-stride. If she were to use it, one of the planes would veer from its group, and she would've hijacked the toy for herself.

[attr="class","bmsk"] in blackest night... Taking up the rear in any medium she had watched and read always ended in disaster, but it was something that always needed to be done. She had the tools for it, so why not set herself in this position? Well, the three seconds of time she lost. One moment she was interposing herself between her teammates and the monkey, the next she was slowly picking herself up some distance away while her head spun. Yeah, let's not do that again, she thinks, getting herself to her knees as she looked up. With a monkey on their back and other isles coming to life, Jun realized that she couldn't rely on this menu forever. So in opening it up she pressed the "Stun Grenades" option five times, the cylinders dropping in front of her. I shouldn't need more than this, she thinks, placing four of them on her belt. The last she pulled the pin on, chucking it at the monkey before picking the door up to start staggering after her compatriots. And, if she were being honest, this was a nightmare. She'd barely get two steps before a pair of dolls latched onto her legs, making her attempt to get going even worse. And look at that, planes! Easy pickings if she had her quirk... "Uh, you up there!" She pulls a grenade off her belt, tossing it up to Kenta. "See if you can scatter them up there with this! I'd do it myself, but I'm a little-" Another doll managed to latch onto her arm, pulling on her ponytail, "-preoccupied!" Hearing that Farrin had tear gas was concerning, but at least he was calling it out and gave her a reason to be more alert. So as she continued to stagger forward she'd work on getting these hell-dolls off of her. tl;dr: -Threw a flashbang at the monkey -Threw an unprimed one up at Kenta for his use -Attempted to catch up, dollpiled Farrin hikari Muruyama Kenta Kaito Tanaka Sol

afety came only in the head start Farrin had on his run and the scattering of enemy ranks. The tear gas had exceeded his expectations. Blinding the enemy alone was the goal, but the monkey dolls were wholly disoriented. Perhaps simulating actual crooks? Whatever the case, some ran into each other, others slammed into the aisles and fell over. Chaos among enemy ranks. That would buy the team time. Or it would have if not for the buzz of forward propellors above. 

That was going to be a problem. 

"Wha?" Farrin started to ask as Kenta passed him. 

A slap to the head and the worldly weight holding Farrin abated. Even if only slightly. Okay, now what Kenta made sense, and he delivered just on time, too. Rubber rounds or something of the sort pelted the ground, shredding tiled flooring and the shelf just behind Farrin. Toys poured out and nearly over the lad, but with a modicum of speed restored, Farrin leaped into a roll, then darted forward. He rose to tactical analysis. Hikari was up ahead. The other student was taking off as well. Meanwhile, Kenta had scaled a nearby aisle, and Jun, well, Jun was in some trouble. 

Rather than speed ahead, Farrin double-backed down the path and kicked at one of the dolls holding Jun, then tried to stomp on another. He couldn't keep up a sprint due to the tears in his leg muscles, but Farrin still had strength in bursts. He could still fight like few others, and even divorced of chronokinesis he hit like a tank. 

With a quick tap of the menu, he took another tear gas grenade and lobbed it back at the gathered monkey dolls. The fliers were an issue, but the gas from his prior attack would clear soon. He couldn't do anything about the former problem, but he could keep the monkeys back a little longer. If Jun found herself free of the toys, he would offer her a hand to help her up. "Yuh' good?" He'd ask. If all went well, he'd turn to start back down the aisle while the ridiculous sticker on his head was speeding him up.

-Farrin moved back toward Jun, swung at two of the toys attacking her, lobbed another tear gas grenade at the monkey dolls to keep that threat off them for a little longer, then tried to help Jun up and turned to start running back down the aisle.

While they ran away, it would seem that Jun and the car door protected the group from the energy ball. That said, the car door didn’t hold up very well throughout and she was sent flying right past Kaito. Jun wasn’t the only one trying to ward off the toy and the effort of them all made them survive, wave I.[break][break]

As it would seem, Wave II was right around the corner and they had no time to prepare for it. The sounds of flying toy planes caught Kaito’s ears. The young man looked up and saw the fleet above them, up in the ceiling. With the fleet diving on the students and firing at them, Kaito raised his hands to shoot an electric beam… well, that was what he hoped to do. He had forgotten that he didn’t have access to his quirk. Well, not that he really forgot but it was more so muscle memory.[break][break]

”Damn it!” He exclaimed as he ducked to avoid one of the aircrafts headed towards him. Well, now it was going to be time to call on one of his assigned tools. He pulled up the menu and tapped on the Swirly Whirly Scepter. Once it was in his hand, he spun it around before it transformed in his hands. The scepter turned from the weapon of the grim reaper into a weapon you’d give a thug; that’s right, it became a bat. Sure, baseball bats were used by baseball players too but he knew the weapon more so from seeing a few thugs with them when he was growing up. Hopefully this one was going to be more useful than Jun’s car door.[break][break]

”Eat Bat!” Kaito swung at three toy planes that were flying right at him. Hoping to hit all three, he put a lot of power behind his swing.

Well, it seemed the sticker he gave Farrin wasn’t a dud, seeing his friend move a bit lighter on his feet, for as little time as the sticker lasted. And the shelves proved to be stable enough to let him climb up, so that was another win

“Guys, I see a door in the distance. I’m guessing that’s our exit!” he called out while looking down, just in time to see Jun tossing him something and calling out to him. He caught the grenade offered to him and called back “You got it! Go on ahead, I should be able to catch up with you…god damn, planes incoming!” he cried out as the next wave of attackers came. Some of the toy planes focused on him, pelting their rubber ammo at him. He stepped back though he didn’t have a lot of room to maneuver given where he was. He let out a yelp as he took a step back too far and lost his footing.

Still, he was aware enough to catch the aisle as he fell, and then dropped down rather than take full fall. This separated him from the group a bit, but at least he took some of the heat from the aerial attack…and now dolls were rushing at him.

Not thinking much he unpinned the grenade and shouted “Fire in the hole!” as he lobbed it toward the toys, in the general direction of where the monkey was at that seemed like the biggest target. He then began to run, but not before pressing the switch on the drone thing he got, sending it up to the air, and using the pointer he got to direct it towards the bunch of dolls chasing him. He was running half-turned, but he figured something to distract the toys would help him as he moved forward.

TLDR - Kenta calls out the potential exit, catches the grande from Jun, manages to halt his fall before tossing the grande, and runs forward while activating his drone item.

Round 3.

The smoke eventually cleared, and the cymbal monkey was still alive. It was readying its next attack when a whole swathe of grenades from Jun, Farrin and Kenta were thrown at it, disrupting its charge and was promptly blinded by the explosions once again.

As for the aerial assault, Kaito swung his newly-gotten bat hard, demolishing two of the planes to pieces and clipping the wing of the third, while his weapon began to play some sick dubstep. Even though they didn't have the chance to dance to the beat, the third plane looked like it was doing so with the way it spiralled out of control before it crashed on the shelf. It would've been problem solved.

If it didn't catch on fire.

Flames began to spread from the crash site, engulfing the shelf and the toys sitting on it. And not only that- the other planes seemed to have followed suit, also crashing on the shelves despite there being no further interference on the students' end to spread even more flames. While there were less toys to worry about thanks to the continued assault with grenades, the remaining ones were on fire. Some stayed on the shelves to stretch out their arms as the group ran past, looking to catch anyone within reach in a too-warm embrace.



The group was also still being shot at. Not by the planes this time, but by Kenta's drone. As soon as it got deployed and it moved to its optimal spot, rather than shoot at its intended targets, it spun in place instead, shooting pebbles in all directions. Some of the makeshift bullets flew through the flames as well, coating itself in embers that would surely burn whoever was unlucky enough to get hit.

Talk about turning a situation from bad to worse.

[attr="class","bmsk"] in blackest night... Farrin's help getting the dolls off was helpful, to say the least. While she appreciated the gesture the outstretched hand immediately induced a spike of anxiety. Instead of taking it she instead positioned the door to leverage herself to her feet. "Thanks," she says, holding a hand up to indicate she was fine. Did he forget she told him she didn't do touch? Oh well, didn't really matter. The grenades that went off behind her caught her off guard, and glancing back she managed to register three booms; one she gathered was from Farrin, one from her, but the last... "That one was for the planes," she muttered, Farrin being the only one close enough to hear. It was in reference to the grenade she tossed up to Kenta, but there was nothing she could do about it now. Everyone was in full-fight with the toys bearing down on them with most of the planes going down. With an exit spotted all they all had to do was press forward to get to it...though the number of sudden arms sprouting from the shelves did not do any favors. "Oh, no none of that," she says, keeping her shield up as she had just enough anxiety coursing through her to keep her from making rational choices. She still had some gear left to deploy...the question was, what exactly did she use? She kept the door up, beginning to move forward and did her best to deflect the arms and the pebbles, but she was slowing down. She was not built for endurance, and without her quirk and her mind becoming muddled she was struggling to be useful. The drone, not only on fire but also firing at them, was something she couldn't exactly take care of. tl;dr: -Gets up, presents door as shield, and pushes forward best she can hikari Farrin Sol Kaito Tanaka Muruyama Kenta

O

h, right. Okay. So Jun really didn't like being touched. Farrin shrugged, looking back to Kenta a moment before turning back to Jun. "We'll make do. Fer' now we jus' need ta' keep movin'," he said, turning about to sprint back down the aisle. Sprint was a bit of a strong word for what Farrin was doing, at least compared to his usual speed. The sticker Kenta planted on his forehead lost its adhesiveness and peeled away, slowing him back down to slug speeds. Ridiculous. If mama O'Rourke saw him like this, she'd have disowned him. Not really... well, maybe. 

Farrin's gaze shifted about. Jun still had her car door—the other guy. Kenta had lobbed his drone out into the air while taking off down the aisle. Hikari was, for the moment, out of sight. He couldn't move pieces not seen on the board, but he could plan around them. Do something for everyone's benefit. Optimal tactics. 

None of the original drones were targeting him, but a few stray rounds passed through the flames of the exploding aisle and slapped Farrin in the shoulder. Another few struck his ribs, and the lad was sent into a sideways roll. "Feckin' banjaxed bullshite," he cursed, eyeing Kenta's out-of-control equipment. His hero outfit had eaten the worst of the damage, but that was going to bruise. His hands patted down smoldering flames. 

Another round flew just overhead. Plushies set ablaze and reached for his back. Farrin dove forward, this time into the center of the aisle. Either they could trail the edge of the aisles, near the shelves where the toys threatened to grab them or continue down the center where the drones would have a clear shot. Lose-lose situation. Unacceptable. 

Farrin's finger danced in the air, navigating his digital menu until it fell on the device he needed. "Nothin' ventured, nothin' gained," he muttered to himself. 

"Oi! Uh," Farrin paused for a moment, calling on the roster the team was provided with before the assignment, "Thundercell!" That was it. That was his name. "Thundercell, Mood Ring, gimme some cover! Dynogel, keep a tad distance in case dis' dun' work. Whatever gear yuh' got left, be ready ta' use it if needed." Hikari? Well, he still didn't see her, but she could crawl in after them if she was nearby.  It was something at least.  

A tuba would spawn would spawn in Farrin's arms. He took aim, inhaled deep, and then blew into the instrument for as long as he could. It would be a trudge, requiring they crouch a bit, but if the device served its intended purpose, a fairly strong tubular tunnel would extend down the aisle, offering them relatively safe passage. Of course, plastic would melt over time, but unless the blaze blew into a searing inferno, they would be safe for most of the trip down the aisle.

- After confirming Jun was okay, Farrin took off down the aisle, but was caught by a few rounds from Kenta's rogue drone. He called out for Kaito and Jun to keep him covered while using his tuba item to create some decently safe passage, and asked Kenta to keep ready to cover the trio in case his plan backfires.

The good news, was they were managing the biggest threat relatively well, and even got some of the planes (even if he did not use the grenade on them as Jun was planning, that was his bad)…bad news was the crashing planes were flammable, and so was rest of the store. As the other ones started crashing it became clear they were going to need to move fast.

What was even worse is while the stamps worked well, the drone decided it would have been boring to just follow commands. Kenta yelped as he ducked to the side, getting belted with a few of the rubber bullets, one sizzling against his skin “God damn piece of…”he muttered angrily, trying to readjust the targeting and have it focused on the monkey again, point the directional device at it. He hoped he was able to override the random craziness.

As he dodged, he felt a long hand try to grab him and pull him towards the flames, giving him a spook as he shouted out, though he wrangled himself away from the grabby hands. As Farrin called out for cover and told him to run ahead, he decided to really go with that Plan. As Farrin tried to use his tunnel he approached Jun behind her shield and moved his hand to her pocket quickly saying “Trade you these pills for the grenade…bite them and they're supposed to warp you to a place you want to go. Give em to the rest, and Ill point out the exit!” he finished, and with his now free hand he slapped on one of the stickers on his own forehead and started running full speed ahead, intent on reaching the door and finding a way to guide the others to it.

TLDR
Kenta gets hit with some of the drone bullets and tries to force it to change targets again
He runs up to Jun and tries to give her 4 of his Blink Pills
He slaps a booster sticker on himslef and goes full speed ahead of everyone trying to reach the door.
