Kanji's working on a small cluster of Nightmares when he can finally be certain of what he's seeing. Damn things - what are they doing? As if they weren't trouble enough before, when he thought they were staying down...
Most of them are within the Spirits' range, but some of them... crap. That's virtually right behind Aqua. The first gets to its feet and starts moving to pounce. He can see a second that's just about to follow suit. A couple more sticks, and...
"Like hell are you gonna...!"
He's got one chance. His Pricklemane's not going to make it. Even if he tried summoning his Persona - and in among these trees, he really hasn't got room - it wouldn't be fast enough. One chance. And one option, that he barely even thinks through. He leaps to meet the Timberwolf attacks head on.
Anyone who'd fight with him is a friend. And Kanji does not let his friends down. He does not let his friends suffer.
The Timberwolves' claws strike home, cutting and splintering - he lets out a yell of both rage and hurt. But as long as it's bought her time... it's worth it. He can take it.
