The chain that coiled around Sora's body--it was no lifeless metal object. Being a demon weapon, what Tsubaki had summoned to fight with wasn't just a weapon one could hold and wield. It was a part of her, and as a consequence the chain moved more like an appendage, snaking around him in unnatural ways.

Like with any appendage, though, it was attached to her, and that was its own disadvantage.

"I think--" She broke off as Sora started to thrash, steadying her footing. "We have to restrain him! He's not... I don't think this is one of the hospital's normal monsters!" Easier said than done, though. He was fast and determined. What could they do to stop him without risking him getting away? Or someone else getting hurt? "Are you okay?" she asked, shooting Leanne a quick glance while she fought with the line of chain in her hand. "I've got him for now."

For now, yes.

In the darkness, it might have looked like Tsubaki was merely holding the chain scythe, but the truth of it was that she'd summoned it out of the arm she'd thrown up. The both of them were locked in for the long haul.

"Stop!" she began as Sora resumed his attempts to get at one of them. "You don't want to attack us!"
