They are absolutely not swayed in any way by Gyre's request to have them stay here. They understood that Gyre doesn't understand them, but he and all the others have the tools to get past that barrier. They have way, way more important tasks to take care of in this exact moment, and getting out of this room is priority one.

Their eyes snap to Zafika as they sit and get their attention and--

Oh.

Zafika's intentions don't line up at all with what the child experiences. They go tight as a spring, like a frightened animal, when they see the glowing, floating spots of light in the room. Those are threats. Those are dangerous. Their eyes are locked on the floating motes of light, darting between the nearest ones several times. There's an unmistakable shifting of glowing streaks below the translucent cyan sheen of their skin a second before they snap their finger down from where they'd been pointing at Gyre's shield. Now their finger is aimed at the floor. The floor that is, unfortunately for everyone, far less durable than Gyre's knight shield. A beam fires out from the tip of their finger and into the floor and--

The ground shatters like ice. The splintering spiderweb cracks glow bright blue as they fracture every inch of the floor.

In the ensuing chaos, they point their hand at the wall of the room below and detonate it outward too. They leap off of the falling debris, escaping their newly created path of destruction in the building. They are leaving and they are running.

[ The child has exited the Hospital and is on the run! Who will give chase? ]
