[Emerick leaped into the air to avoid the walls of fire, bouncing from rock to rock with the easy agility of her feline form, getting close enough in time to hear Optimus' pronouncement.]

Ready when you are! Let's make catnip out of fire-breath here.

[Meanwhile, down in the village Kit and Aburn join Starscream in helping to evacuate the Yokomon. However, neither she nor either of her partners fail to notice the roar in the distance. She doesn't know what it could be, but it sounded something like the roar the Sword of Omens made...

She was soon brought back to the present, however, just as Starscream was, by Airblitz. Kit nods.]

I sent Emerick to help too, so she should already be there. Aburn can help us here.

[She watched him fly off for a moment before getting back to the evacuation, joining Starscream and Aburn in trying to herd the frightened Yokomon towards safety.]

This way! I saw a cave under the edge of the cliff that should be safe!

[Well, safer than in the path of a crazy, fire-shooting guy, anyway.]
