[That's okay for now - Luke takes a few cautious steps forward, not minding that Kairi's staying behind him. And since it's so dark, she can't see how he holds his sword in front of him, the way it trembles slightly. His breathing's a little faster, but maybe that's just because of the attack he made. Couldn't be because how this reminds him of Akzeriuth.
... After a moment, though, his head clears enough to glance behind him and notice the dim outline of Kairi there.]
... If you can find someone to partner with, that'd be good.
[Part of him wishes he could go. But the other half of him knows that he'd be just like this, or worse.
There's more skittering ahead, though, and Luke looks forward again to prepare for it.]
