The door crunched with the impact of the battering ram and then rather then continue to break it down, Ruffnut caught sight of the peace keepers lighting some wood and and throwing it through the hole they'd bashed in the door.
They were lighting his house on fire. They were gonna burn him alive!!!
Actually what they were doing was using smoke to try and blind him so when they finished breaking the door down he'd be easier to subdue but that's not what Ruffnut saw. What she saw was a man who had lost everything, the family of a girl she had tried to protect and failed.
Everything that was wrong with this world wrapped up in a little package. The strong bullying the weak and not even making it funny or entertaining. Just...mean.
She didn't have anything witty to say about it either she just growled in anger and cast a parting glance at Emily.
"I'm sorry."
After everything they'd been through and all their talks it had come to this. Emily trying to protect her and Ruffnut not wanting protection. She jerked away and rushed the peacekeepers again startling them as she launched into one knocking him into another and causing a scrambling tussle as they flailed an punched and kicked at one another. The padded armor soaked up a lot of the damage but they had their helmets on and she didn't.
Annnd wait for Haruto, then Emily can tag again then Ruffnut
