Raine stopped dead in her tracks when she saw the scene. No... she had the fleeting thought that it might not be what it looked like, some people had somehow gotten their outfits from home back and nobody seemed to know how, but that simple fact wouldn't explain the scene in front of her. By all appearances, Kratos had attacked a group in the hallway; as much as she wanted to think of another explanation for what she was seeing, the sword he wielded killed all possible hopes of that.
They'd fought before, and she knew very well what he was capable of. The second time her group, the one he had betrayed, faced off against him, they'd been able to take him down... but that had been with all of them at full power, and even then they'd been very low on Gels by the time the battle ended. Here, it was more than just unlikely that his current opponents would be able to defeat him. They had the advantage of numbers, but Kratos had more magic, and he could teleport. His wings weren't out, but she wasn't going to count on that being against his will.
She swore, very quietly; this wasn't good. If they were going to defeat Kratos, it wouldn't be through sheer force.
