Hello, everyone!! I'm not here right now - probably in class or with my friends! Or on a mission. Um...leave me a message here and I'll get back to you soon, okay? Bye!!
[She looks...well. Unhurt, at the least, physically, but Ochako is definitely worn out. Whatever the hell she just did quite literally took all her energy, and she's panting and looking dazed, not able to really move much without her muscles screaming at her. She can barely keep herself conscious enough to gasp out, tired and fatigued--]
T-Tired... Body. Hurts...
[--between breaths. Her eyes are so, so heavy, and all she wants to do is sleep. Her fingers twitch again, but this time with purpose, arm reaching to try and fumble for her phone. It takes all of maybe two seconds for her to give up and drop her aching arm. Welp, there goes that idea of calling for help. She should be fine, now that they're outside and safe, but...it's still dark out. She can barely move, and their guide is still hurt as well. They can't rest here, they need to get back.]
[ She lets out a sigh of relief, just glad that Ochako is alive at all. Yuzu got exhausted just from using her own magic, so whatever Ochako did must've drained her even more. Still, even if they're out in the middle of nowhere, it's at least safer than the inside of that manor. ]
R-Right! Okay, just rest, alright! I'll...
[ Still, the panic wasn't over yet. Considering what the place looked like, they must still be near the manor, just not inside it anymore. It'd be great if anyone could hear them, but...
Still, she has to try. ]
Hey! Is anybody out there!? We need help!
[ Even after yelling that out, she's not sure if anybody heard them. She'd like to at least get closer to the path... wherever that might be, but she can't just leave. Ochako's out of commission and their guide is mostly unconscious with a broken leg... and Yuzu was the youngest out of all of them. She could probably carry Ochako, or even their guide if she used some healing magic to boost her strength, but both at once felt like a stretch...
Her only other option is to try and do something with Animal Magic... but she barely had control of that, and where would she even start? ]
[Just rest, she says, as if Ochako's not already halfway to Sleepytown Junction... The sounds and sights around her start to blur and go dark as the young brunette just lets of a weary sigh and allows herself the moment to just close her eyes and let the fatigue really take her. They're safe now, and even their guide is with them, too. They...th-they probably saved his life, and that alone makes a tiny, tired smile appear on Ochako's face before she's claimed by sleep.
A call for help... Maybe it was sheer luck, or chance, that a messenger hawk was flying overhead when Yuzu cried out. While it's already done its task of delivering a letter to who knows where, it heard the cry and swooped down with a curious screech, not getting too close, but circling overhead and crying back. This may be your one chance, friendo...let that Animal Magnetism do its trick!]

[ It’s something, and though Yuzu’s not even expecting anything from it... ]
H-Hey! Over here!
[ She waves her arms, and unbeknownst to her... her cat ears and tail seem to vanish, and replacing it, her hair takes on a more feathery texture and appearance.
As if that triggered something, the hawk lets out another screech as it starts to descend... and actually fly directly at Yuzu. ]
E-Ehh!? W-Wait...!
[ It looks like the hawk is about to slam into her face like some kind of feathery hug, but as Yuzu shouts for it to wait... it actually flaps it’s winds and slows down, landing on the ground in front of her and looking at her curiously.
She can scarcely believe it as she blinks at the animal, but... there’s recognition in it’s eyes. It understood her, unlike every other animal she’s been swarmed by in the past.
And as it squawks at her one more time... there’s understanding on her end as well, albeit vague understanding. It’s... asking what the problem is, that would have her be so loud. ]
I-I need your help... can you bring other people—other humans over here?
[ The bird stares at her for a moment, contemplating her request. It was a messenger bird, after all. It had a place to return right now, so could it really take the time to do this? Especially when most other humans are incapable of understanding it the way this girl is. ]
Please...! [ Yuzu puts her hands together, pretty much begging this bird now. ] My friend can’t move, and one of us is injured...!
[ There’s another moment of contemplation from the hawk... before it squawks again.
Yuzu understands it as an acceptance. Reluctant, maybe, but in a Tsundere kind of way funnily. Who knew that a messenger hawk could be a tsundere?
In any case, Yuzu breathes a sigh of relief as the hawk flaps its wings and takes to the sky again, circling a bit before heading off in another direction. ]
Hah...
[ She sighs, her hair returning to it’s normal texture and appearance. It wasn’t exactly an intentional use of her magic... but this was her Animal Magic, wasn’t it?
In any case, she’s not sure how far they are from other people or how long it will take for the hawk to return, but... seeing as she’s not going to be able to move anywhere with two people out of commission, she sits down next to Ochako.
She’s glad that she’s asleep, the faint traces of a smile still there. She just saved all of their lives, after all. ]
[It's going to be a while before help arrives. Poor Yuzu, having to sit more or less alone with two unconscious people next to her. At the very least, Ochako does come to once or twice, just enough to make sure the other girl is still there, and not racing off on her own or something, before she's exhaling and closing her eyes once more. Thankfully, nothing else seems to come after them in the darkness - the only actually threat being the slight chill of the night.
It another perhaps thirty, maybe even forty minutes - painfully slow and agonizing - before a brilliant light flashes to life just a few yards away, and four individuals emerge from what seems to be a teleportation circle. They're adults, mostly, though there is a younger looking boy with them, maybe about twenty or so. The youngest, no doubt, but still skilled. He's the one that jerks forward, as if ready to leap into action, but is held back by what is probably his mentor, who approaches and asks questions of Yuzu first, to assess the situation.
Moments pass by still - all three of them getting medical treatment from the young male (a healer and alchemist) and another older woman, while the other two individuals move Ochako and their Guide onto stretchers, lifted up by kinetic magic. Skilled magicians are wizards, the final one ushers everyone back to the teleportation circle, to finally be brought back to Camelot proper. The young man places a hand on Yuzu's shoulder with a calming smile, reassuring her that she did a good job in calling for help like she did, and that the other two will be just fine. Ochako is just worn out, having used up an insane amount of her mana to teleport them beyond what she could handle safely. With rest, and a mana potion he fed her a while ago, she'll be perfectly fine probably within the next hour, actually. Furthermore, their guide will receive daily treatments to heal the bone. Having it set and healed even just a little bit truly helped the process of having it take far less time, and be less traumatic an injury to fix if left untreated at all.
'You two both did wonderfully. We're glad no one was truly hurt.']
