[ one of the offending tendrils catches kanaya in the stomach, throwing her against a wall with enough force to leave a splatter of green behind her.
she falls limp for a moment, but the images running through her head, the memories floating to the surface, are enough of a shock to her system to keep her losing coherence. a white hot burst through her friend's chest, an orb shattering, a throbbing pain just where the tentacle's pierced. but more, there's another in her right shoulder that makes it feel like her arm may fall off, a splitting pressure in her forehead, something snapping in her neck, her left lung wanting to collapse. a desperate, bittersweet moment with a friend as hellbeasts rise from the river, flirting with the ledge of a roof when she knows that same friend isn't coming back. she sees herself attacking friends without being able to stop.
kanaya doesn't even hear herself screaming as her shaking hands take hold of the tentacle holding her like an umbilical cable to a demon mother, twisting and tearing with all the strength she has. she doubles over to dig and rip her teeth into it, anything to separate her from the source of this pain. ]
