All that goading Katina to run, and she went own like this. In an instant, she went from a fearful adrenaline rush to her legs feeling like jelly, unable to lift her to try and make another break for it. She rolled over, looking up at the demon with fear plainly evident in her eyes.

This was it, she was caught, AKIHA would do whatever she wanted to Katina. She was already bracing herself, or trying to brace herself, for pain, for torture, for taunting, maybe for death. It didn't matter what she said or did. "Akiha! A-a-are you in there?! Come on, please, I know we've... we've had our differences, but I know you don't want this!" Begging was almost physically painful for her, but if it was her last line of defense against a monster she'd damn well take it.
