Fuu had known that Clef was the Guru of Cephiro. She had seen him easily dispatch a monster and conjure armor into existence--he had given her the magic she herself now used. But she had not actually seen him use his magic in this kind of battle. It seemed to Fuu that even if it had been a good idea to join in the fray, there was very little she could do compared to him.

She stepped back to stay out of his way, rather than the Kessek's, one hand covering her mouth as she silently prayed that he wouldn't be hurt. He showed no hesitation in confronting the enormous warriors. Irrational hope leaped in her heart as he effortlessly ducked their strikes, but the battle was over as soon as it began.

"Clef-san!" she shouted as the tentacles whipped him up towards the ceiling. "No--is he hurt?!" she demanded, whirling on the Kessek. It was ridiculous to expect them to care when he'd just been trying to kill them, but the words flew out before she could think about that.
