The first to take action isn't the hellish bird this time, but rather the teasing healer, and with a flash of her pale Persona, Kanade immediately provides a burst of rejuvenation to the male of her two angsty companions, immediately leaving Mijimeki standing much straighter.
60 HP restored to Mijimeki!Then the raven acts... but this time things are much different. At first, it just writhes, squawks, and
shrieks in a manner that is unmistakably feminine, but then with a violent motion of its limply-bending wing a wave of fire crosses the room, striking each of the three fighters.
Aoi takes 35 damage, Kanade takes 45, and Mijimeki takes 41! Then it crosses its wing with a loud squawk, and
a bright, white wall forms around it!Mijimeki's charge meets the bird as the wave dissipates and the wall forms, his gray and lurching Persona slamming a fist into the cursed thing, a hit that meets solidly and would have presented a major turning point had he been somewhat luckier -- but even as is, it's enough to almost give the bird pause.
Bash connects -- and the bird is visibly now more frantic and pained!This is immediately followed by Aoi's attack, the girl still limply but stubbornly hanging around its neck with one arm even as she loses any opportunity to use the bird's momentum against it. The other arm moves, and her cloaked Persona appears, jamming a quickly-conjured bolt of ice into its side. But now, this time, it isn't quite as effective, and though the bird shrieks with pain again, it remains upright.
Bufu connects, but only with about the same level of effectiveness as the Bash!

From around the far doorway, a grey-gloved hand is briefly visible -- and three shining shapes fly from it and to the ground, impacting against it and rolling towards the Raven... between its legs... and towards the group! These shapes are two bright blue, teardrop shaped stones and a wider, rounder red-glowing one!
