[It's not an eloquent response, but he's too busy trying to think. The Strangers move so quickly, quicker than any of them can track. So maybe . . . at his side, Polnareff waves his fingers minutely. It's a somewhat ineffectual way to try and indicate to Kakyoin that one of those barriers might come in handy. Kakyoin can tell if the creature moves, and when he does, Polnareff will know where to have Chariot stab.]
[He didn't like this at all. Having his back to a threat made Kakyoin's skin crawl for several reasons--but this was different than one night down the wrong Cairo alley. No matter how fast this enemy was, he wasn't alone in dealing with it.]
[He glanced down to Polnareff's hand and then in the direction of the door, silently offering an alternative; Hierophant's barrier could give them a headstart, and their range would make it a sizable one.]
[Was it ever. Hierophant's entire body disengaged in a flash, separating and latching on to the floor, walls, and ceiling directly behind Kakyoin in a glittering green net of tripwires. The redhead himself darted forward and away from the figure Hierophant now separated him from, a safer distance away.]
Come on--that'll fire back when it's touched but it won't hold up forever.

Fuck it. If you're going to cheat, we might as well head home.
[Three, two, one . . . his muscles tensed up, but he waited for the signal from Kakyoin.]
