Haruka listened, but she seemed more interested in the atmosphere and area around them. She felt the grass at her knees and her head tilted upwards.
It didn't feel too bad, compared to the last time.
Haruka couldn't see the targets but she stepped forward. Might as well get it over with? And she hadn't gotten too much of a feel for Inugami before anyway.
She pulled out her sword but instead of jabbing it to her chest, she placed it to her wrist and sliced vertically.
Despite the assurance it hurt less as it went on, it still really hurt. She gripped her arm and cried out, her knees shaking a little but she didn't fall this time. Again, the words came on their own, as though some automatic instinct inside her was pulling it out, "Persona."
And in a blue light, Inugami appeared at her feet - her red eyes flashing at the adults briefly with displeasure as she let out a harsh growl. However, as Haruka belatedly remembered to use her cane to get her balance back, she almost felt like there was another limb she hadn't been aware of till now. But pulling on it came naturally-
-And she felt a warm, furry, reassuring body back up a little, catching her. Despite Inugami's growls and snarls, it whimpered and nuzzled against her. Haruka couldn't help but smile and reach forward to scratch her ears, which her Persona leaned into.
