Haruto had kept as close to Albert as he could on this mission, because it seemed like a good idea. He trusted the man and his judgement. He knew that he could be counted on in a fight. And... honestly, given how things have been going? He thinks that Albert could use the moral support. So he's not far away when the powers flicker on, and far more visibly reactive when one of the Peacekeepers erupts into... whatever the hell that thing is.
"I guess it's showtime!" He's actually excited about it, and can't keep a grin off his face. He has his rings, he has his magic, he just needs to activate his belt and transform... and so he does, passing the ring on his right hand over the palm-shaped device at his waist, triggering it to come alive with a noisy chime and a call of "Driver On, please!" He's already starting the flicking motion to shift the hand to the other side, setting it up for a proper cast of magic when everything becomes one enormous singing note of pain. He gives a strangled shout and doubles over, curling into himself, trying and failing to somehow fight the feeling off. It shouldn't be like this. Someone must've gotten something wrong somewhere. But he can't give in to the urge to panic, nor the fear that he might never truly get his powers back, after all. There is too much at stake. Too many people that he needs to save. If he can just get control back of his left hand and swipe it over the driver....
Alas, because he'd gone through with that flicking motion, his driver is now in standby-for-magic mode. Which means that it's singing, waiting for him to do something. "Shabadoobie, touch to henshin... Shabadoobie, touch to henshin..." Here's hoping the titan's not a big fan of music.
