As soon as those words were spoken, Satsuki's eyes widened. "Harime."
With that, there was a loud, crackling
boom as the sound of a jet engine roared in everyone's ears. Nui
crashed past them, through the ball of ruined life fibers as she plowed through three separate buildings. They collapsed, as their top halves fell to the ground with an explosion of debris.

Ryuko paused as she felt the comm on her belt ringing. Without pausing, she picked it up. "What is it, Inumuta?"
"Bad news." Inumuta said. "...Nui's here."
"...Here as in 'knocked down the door', because we
know that-"
"Here, as in
she's just murdered thousands of people."
Ryuko froze. "...Get everyone out.
Now."
Nui let out a cackle as the screams of thousands were drowned out by crashing debris. She turned to Ryuko, then at Mako and Gamagoori. "Oh, are you the lovely couple that just tore out a piece of my mom?"
Gamagoori's hands
slammed together. "That mass of Life Fiber can do nothing more than
consume!" He clenched his teeth.
"IT WANTS TO EAT THIS PLANET ALIVE, AND YOU JUST WANT TO LET IT!?"
"Why would I want food to rule the world?" Nui shrugged. "It's why I gave mama a free meal~!"
Mako shook her head, before she
rushed towards Nui. "You're not gonna hurt
anyone here!" She said, before Daytona's bite was blocked by a single swipe of Nui's hand. The jaws were locked in place, as Nui just let out a low giggle.
"Silly, I just hurt a lot of people!" Nui's teeth flashed once. "Don't you wanna see what
else I can do?" Just as she said that, there was a loud
boom as a fist of steel was caught by her head. Nui didn't even seem to flinch, even as the ground beneath her feet exploded.
"Like what, fucking
murder?!" Satsuki screamed. "You're nothing but a fucking
psychopath with
superpowers!"
"I'm living to my potential~!" Nui giggled. "But you? You just seem to be wasting it!" She turned her head slowly towards Mako. "...Maybe if I got rid of her-!"
As soon as she said that, Satsuki's force
grew. With a burst of blue light from behind her forearm, she
forced her fist forwards. "You are
not going to
hurt-!" Nui's hand slipped, and she let Satsuki's fist carry her overhead. Gamagoori dived down, and Daytona's mouth was forced wide open, with Mako Mankanshoku right in the middle of it.
And with that, time seemed to slow down. Satsuki watched in horror as Nui kept her smile. A long, thin blade, made of rainbow life fibers, slipped out from her palm, as she rushed towards Mako. Gamagoori's hand got her out of the way, but only slightly, as the life-fiber blade soared through the air.
It cut through flesh and bone as though it were cutting through air, and with that, Mako Mankanshoku's right arm was set loose.
There was a loud scream as Mako was sent flying backwards across the ground with a spray of blood. Her body tumbled across the pavement, before her back slammed against a nearby concrete wall.
Nui just seemed to shrug. "Oopsies, I guess I got a little sloppy!" She knocked herself on the head. "Stupid me!"
