The three [or four] of them were a team now and the ultimate was for them to function as one. That was going to take alot of practice, but Kai had been trying to pick apart her teammates since their first meet. Shun and Reiko were an implied two in one package, and in turn, that could or should mean that Kai and Itsuki would need to take precedent do the same for each other. And ultimately, the two pairs would come together that way. Tomomi reminded them that there would be nobody to hold their hands or any white knights to come save them on the field. Instantly, Kai thought of her dad. She never met him, but knew that he died while on a mission. One of many Sagara to fall, but they did so with honor, and she'd hoped to carry that on...but not in death.

So once it was all said and done, she immediately noticed a superficial clone of Sensei come about and the objective was for them to dispatch it. She instantly recognized it as a brown bag twin, which was good, but what it lacked in psionic quality it more than made up for with its congruent speed. Understanding this, Kai instantly came to Itsuki's side to whisper in her ear. "Will you try to keep the clone distracted for us?" She hoped by putting the bug in her ear, it would help Itsuki formulate a plan without her needing to say so, if she didn't have one already. Whatever she did, Kai distanced herself  some twenty feet from the immediate area of the group, walking in a backwards curve to stay out of the clone's line of sight. If at any point it looked her way, she inclined in a dart that was complimentary to the direction in which Shun tried to lead it.

Shun was playing right into his role of getting up close and personal with the clone, and hopefully Itsuki was making noise by way of a cheer or adding to the onslaught by any means necessary. But either way, she pulled a senbon needle from her thigh pack and aimed for the clone's posterior the moment it turned or it became a visible angle. In an overhanded throw, the senbon was sent spiraling for the clone's shoulder blades or bicep, depending on the angle. In any case, Kai was already jogging to another vantage point to throw another in case she missed.
