>To Rin: Slip under the wire of yours in cat form. If we can catch them off-guard, you mightn't need might of a fight at all. I'll take mine at the same time.
>Feels bad to exclude Hiyori, but it's best not to risk being overheard, if we can help it
>We can make a gesture or two to go along with Rin shifting, and see if we can get the point across
>Then, short of any further objection, let's dash into each of our respective restrooms together and let them have it
>
Good idea, but I'd better tell Hiyori the plan. We are working together here.>After you express your concern about being overheard, Rin frowns very briefly, then gives you an affirmative. She turns to Hiyori and points her towards the door, her hands making a sort of small opening gesture.
>"You want me to open the door?" Hiyori asks quietly.
>Grimacing, White Rose nods. "My cat body can get under that wire without hitting it. I'll hit the target or disarm the wire."
>Hiyori nods, then moves to enact the plan. Again, very slowly, she pushes the men's washroom door open just a crack as White Rose returns to her kasha form. Giving your girlfriend a count of three, the two of you burst forward with speed, her squeaking through the crack of the men's doorway, you barreling your way though the women's room door, scepter at the ready, attack spell on your lips. But the sight that awaits you on the other side gives you pause. What you see is not any of the Protectors, nor is it Youmu, nor is it anything that seems to belong here. What you see, sitting towards the end of the room, resting comfortably on its haunches, is a very large male lion.
