"Don't waste time being sorry, just do better!" Asuka snaps. She pauses in her tirade only to let out a half-shriek, half-yell as she cleaves a particularly stubborn figure in two. "I can't stand excuses!"

There is an extra-loud scream from the fray, Asuka only barely sees what happens to Sandy, but she can see enough to know it's bad. But she can't move from her position. Her reaction is immediate. "We're dying out here because you two are too weak to protect yourselves! Well, fine! They're not taking me with them!" Kaji can sharply feel the fear that cracks behind Asuka's bravado. But it's why she lashes out in every direction, even towards her own allies.
