[ nothing makes sense. this shouldn't be happening. this wasn't actually happening, right?
he doesn't hear his name being called. he doesn't hear anything except for the sound of his lungs trying to take a breath in, the sound of blood rushing through his ears. yuuri is on the ground on his knees, his hands clutched to his chest and there's one long scary moment where he can't breathe and can't move, and--
between one moment of sheer terror to the next, between the span of two heartbeats, yuuri's arm shoots out in front of him and he yells something out; a garbled and wordless cry of something, and there's something else there now, beside Chikusa. it's vaguely humanoid just like the shadow that's approaching them, but upon closer inspection there are crystal shards dotting the dark skin of the creature, a flash of bright crimson as it moves an arm forward in a gesture that's too similar to yuuri's.
the shadow howls and shrieks in surprise more than pain as a mist of frozen air surrounds part of its body, freezing it solid to the ground. ]
