All noise seemed to be drowned out as Alisa's arrow saved Seiji when he was moments from taking the brunt of a shadow's attack directly to his face. "Enough to make this fun!" He said in reply to her questioning the number of shadows attacking them. Gareth held his sword up again and attacked everything around them with Mahama. This time, it seemed like it was stronger given the boost he'd just imbued them both with. Gritting his teeth, he attacked one of the weaker looking shadows while it was blinded by the light. His own muscles felt stronger, his body felt lighter...everything felt better. The shadows were slowly but surely being thinned out as Gareth kept them from getting too close to Alisa while Seiji fought ones farther away from the house. His Persona was clearly the strongest, able to pick up shadows with one hand and cleave them in two with his massive blade in the other. A pair of twins pinned together by a number of needles tried to swing around and bash Gareth back, but the mighty knight stood its ground.
All in all, the hectic fight seemed to be going well for Alisa and Seiji. That was, until a hand with a mask on its wrist scurried up out of the blue and pointed at Sir Gareth. At first, nothing seemed to happen. Underneath the knight's feet, a glowing black vortex formed and both Persona and human fell to their knees. Ever since he began fighting alongside Gareth, Darkness attacks had always put him on edge, and now he knew why. Heaving and coughing, he felt almost as bad as he did after his run-in with the Gigas. "Get that hand!" Seiji commanded and his Persona was quick to follow. Imbuing his blade with the power of the moon, it slashed the hand and tore it clean in half, half out of rage and half to keep it from trying that again. With most of the shadows but a few stragglers beaten, Seiji went to work chasing the others off and defeating those that he could catch.
Eventually, he made his way back to Alisa and breathed a sigh of relief. Despite being hit by something that really hit home, he seemed in fairly good spirits. "What was that about overconfidence?"
