"Haruka, Haruka, Haruka. So successful and yet still so naive. Did you really think that all those brake failures were 'accidents'? What kind of incompetent idiot do you think I am?" The big man takes a moment to gather his breath, and is just about to continue when he suddenly lets out a yell.
With perfect precision, Michiru has lodged one bullet into Yamada's left leg, and one bullet into his right hand to make him drop his gun. Sprinting out from the kitchen, she helps Haruka stand and move away from the madman.
Haruka's eyes are full of questions but she knows not to ask them right now. Michiru keeps her weapon aimed on Yamada, who is now groaning in pain on the floor, and moves forward to kick his gun away from him and closer to Haruka, who picks it up and holds it against her chest. Motioning for Haruka to follow her, Michiru attempts to open the front door, but finds that it is jammed. And despite using their full strength, the two women cannot get the door to cooperate.
"Michiru, let's just get onto the roof," Haruka pants out, "We can call for help from there."
Nodding, the aqua girl turns back towards the windows, and see that Yamada has gotten onto his knees. As Haruka's former employee laughs maniacally, he opens his jacket to reveal that he is not alone.
Strapped to his stomach is a large and loudly ticking bomb.
