Sora hadn't expected to get stopped up so soon and his expression darkened almost immediately when he heard the voice. It was hard to see the guard completely from so far away, but his orders and threats were loud and clear. Sora stiffened, preparing to make a run for it. It was likely that one of them would end up wounded by the time that they got up and over the wall, but this wasn't a situation where that could be helped.

Just as he was going to tell the others to scatter and run, Riku spoke up, offering himself as the distraction. There was no way that Sora could accept something like that. "Riku, no! We--"

They were going to stick together, and that was that. There was no way he was leaving his friend behind, especially when considering the fact that he'd disappeared from this place so many times. Sora knew he was being stubborn and maybe making the situation worse as a result, but chances were that guy wasn't going to shoot at them until they made a move.

Which Riku then proceeded to do by approaching their opponent. Sora could already tell that there wasn't a good chance of Riku being able to deflect bullets with that blade, which made him even more nervous. "You don't need to do this!" he argued, moving forward to stand at his friend's side. Then he lowered his voice so that only Riku would be able to hear. "Let's just all start running. If we're quick enough, he might miss."
