[Hyenadog]

When the light filled the room, Hitsugi was knocked to the ground. He had heard Alex try and stop him, but it had been just a little too late. He wrapped his arms around his head, trying to block out the light. He called to Alex, but with the light also came an intense ringing sound. As the light grew brighter, the ringing grew to a deafening level. But as suddenly as it happened, the light and sound vanished, leaving the two men disoriented.

Hitsugi managed to roll over and get up on his hands and knees. Blinking and squinting as he looked around the now dark room for Alex. He called out to him, fumbling around himself until he managed to find the lantern. "Alex...We...we gotta get out of here." he said, stumbling to his feet. He felt strange, a lingering buzzing filling his head. Whatever had caused the light had transferred directly to him...And when he found Alex's hand and grabbed it to help him up, that energy transferred between them.

"Come on...we gotta go." He said, trying to get himself and Alex up, only to double over and groan at an intense cramping feeling in his lower abdomen.

(Let it happen to hitsugi first. The effect is delayed for alex.)
