{Haru gasped watching as Xanxus's whole appearance changed. The scars she had assumed were leftover from long ago injuries advance across his skin crawling in such a similar pattern to the flames turning into an inferno around his hands. She watches the guns clatter to the dock and something cold grips her heart.

The first punch takes her breath with the bird's eye view and she knows something is terribly wrong. She knows instinctively that Xanxus doesn't fight with his fists, Ricardo might have, but not like this. There's no form to his body, no discipline, just mindless rage. He follows through and drops into the crater of the man's landing continuing his attack.

Haru reacts without thinking, diving and dispelling her box animal. She drops to the ground and scoops up the Xguns, carefully turning the safeties on before she shoots herself on accident. She half climbs half slides into the bottom of the crater. At this rate she will be lucky if the body is identifiable, let alone if she gets any information out if the man, but that's no longer her primary concern.

She takes a deep breath and says a stupid meaningless prayer for luck before throwing herself at Xanxus's side. If it was Ricardo she knew she could just touch him and he would blink at her, listen to her voice, but she doesn't know Xanxus in that way. So, a full on side tackle is what she chooses.}

Xanxus! It's fine! I'm fine and he's dead already! At least probably dead! So you can stop! Please!
