Ai was very hesitated to give Seth her gun, her slayer gun, it was the onlly possesion she had left from her past, but if this is to save her friend Tomoro. Then so be it, she swiftly took out her gun and gently tossed it over to Seth. She looked over to Tomoro, with a uneasy smile as grabbed her hand.
"Common, your friend told us to go, we should go!" she said as her small wings hwere flapping frantically, mainly because of the darkness this guy was gathering, it was also making Ai nervous. Last time she felt a simular power was when she was child, but that was a long time ago, AI barely rememberes what really happened.
"Common!" she said as she started tot ug at Tomoro's hand, so they can get a run for it before something bad does happen.

Tomoro then stood up slowly, using Hikaru's shoulder as support. "N-no... If I die... I know... that I have friends... and that... I was given a place in this world... not to mention having been accepted to it... " Tomoro nodded to herself, as if reassuring she were doing the right thing, though it may have been the biggest mistake of her life. "It was a long time ago... I did this once... sending chaos amuk... old wounds... reopen."
Standing her ground, Tomoro then looked up at the stranger, pushing Seth aside, a bold move. "Stranger... what do you want? Leave us be. We have nothing.. to offer." Whether it was her own self-confidence getting in the way, pure idiocy, or the secret desire to sacrifice herself to her friends, she wouldn't budge, and continued to stare the tall man down, glaring into his bloody eyes. "I will not move. Kill me if you wish."

Hikaru gritted her teeth. She knew Seth was probably right, but she didn't want to always just run away from danger. If that's what she was going to do, what was all of her training for? Why did she try so hard to develop her powers?
On the other hand, Tomoro didn't look like she was in any condition to fight. The other girl seemed to think escaping was a good idea, too. Was she being too stubborn? Maybe running away really was the better plan right now, and this guy seemed to know what he was talking about.
Finally coming to a decision within herself, Hikaru grabbed Tomoro, scooping her up in her arms. "Hang on," she said simply before taking off in the direction of the dormitories. She wasn't wearing her training weights, so her super speed kicked in fast and strong as she started to run. Trying to concentrate, she remembered when she was carrying Kylie to the hospital.
C'mon, Hikaru, you can do it... she thought to herself. This is just like that other time, except a little bit faster.
As she thought this, she just narrowly avoided slamming Tomoro and herself into a tree, whizzing past it by a hair's breadth instead.
Okay, a lot faster.
Even so, there was no way she'd give up. Her friend was counting on her. If this was the only way she could help right now, then that was exactly what she planned to do. All of these thoughts went through her head as she tore off at lightning speed away from the battle.

Not having expected the slap at all, Hikaru dropped Tomoro, tumbling to the ground as she went running off toward Immolatus and the others. She hit the dirt hard, skidding through the courtyard and scraping herself up pretty badly against the ground. Stunned for a moment, she watched as her friend went back to the scene with the others, clenching her fists.
God, I'm stupid... she thought to herself, her nails digging into her palms hard enough to draw blood. How could I let that guy talk me into leaving? I said I was gonna back her up!
Standing up and brushing herself off, she took a deep breath. "WAIT UP, TOMORO!" she yelled out loudly toward her friend, dashing back toward the scene to rejoin the others. As she caught up with her, she nodded before passing her by. "I'm sorry too," she said simply, waving an arm behind her as she rushed off to join Seth at his side once again.

As Seth was pushed away by Tomoro, his eyes widened at what she was just about to do, then a sudden sense of relief came over him as the other girl had picked her up and flew off with her. His eyes went back to the man before him, but he could sense something coming back.. it was Tomoro.. she was running back to them.. why? He wouldn't let her kill herself.
Lifting one hand up to about where his neck was, his arm outstretched outwards, he quickly brought his hand down and a circle of high flames appeared around himself and Immolatus. "I'm sorry, Tomoro... this is for the best..." he whispered as he looked to the flame through the corner of his eyes, and then back at Immolatus, staring him down once more before finaly speaking.
"I've heard evil.. I've seen evil.. hell.. I've been evil" Seth began, taking a few steps forwards and stopping before he pointed the gun towards Immolatus "But I have never.. backed down from evil... and I won't start now...." he said cocking the handgun "..so fight me now, or leave.." Seth said before a smirk came over his lips "..you can't kill me anyways"

Hikaru jumped back as the flames shot up out of the ground, barely avoiding getting completely immolated by Seth's barrier. Tumbling back, she rose to one knee and tried to see what was going on through the massive amount of fire he'd conjured. She was beginning to get really pissed off about this whole situation... first the guy was going to fight everyone, then he wasn't, then everyone else was going to take him down, and then they weren't, and then we were supposed to run, but Tomoro didn't want us to, and now this guy was going to fight on his own all over again. It was almost too much of a pain to bother, and nothing had even happened yet! Kicking at the ground as she stood up, she cupped her hands over her mouth and yelled out.
"SETH! YOU IDIOT! WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING!"
